Times Leader 05-07-2013

After a 2 1/2-hour, closed-
door executive session, a major-

ity of Luzerne County Council
voted to conrm the county
managers two latest division-
head nominations.
County 911 Executive Direc-
tor David Parsnik, Plains Town-
ship, will be paid $70,000 as the
new overseer of administrative
services, which includes human
resources, purchasing/acquisi-
tion, information technology,
elections, licensing/permits,
records, grant writing, commu-
nity development and tourism.
J. Allen Nesbitt, Easton, was
hired for $75,000 to oversee the
correctional-services division
covering the prison system and
juvenile detention.
Seven council members vot-
ed for Parsnik: Harry Haas, Lin-
da McClosky Houck, Eugene
Kelleher, Stephen A. Urban,
Rick Williams, Elaine Maddon
Curry and Tim McGinley.
Six supported Nesbitts hir-
ing: McClosky Houck, Kelleher,
Williams, Jim Bobeck, Maddon
Curry and McGinley.
Councilman Rick Morelli
voted against both appoint-
ments, saying he wanted more
time to research the nominees
backgrounds. County Manager
Robert Lawton submitted the
names and information on both
nominees to council on Friday.
DALLAS TWP. Jeff
Emanuel spoke of a family bus
business started by my father
50 some years ago. His wife,
Sally, solemnly told the Dallas
School Board that in the palm
of your hands lies our future.
And several bus drivers spoke
of Emanuel Bus Line not as a
business but as a family.
It wasnt enough. The board
ended the districts long rela-
tionship with Emanuel Bus
with a 5-3 vote that left one
member groping for words and
another calling it the tough-
est vote in her 20 years on
the board. Business Manager
Grant Palfey said the contract
would save the district $83,000
a year over its ve-year term.
The room full of Emanuel
supporters rose angrily, some
rebuking the board for aban-
doning a local employer, and
one shouting they had just
hired a child molester.
The remark referred to
the fact that the company re-
placing Emanuel, G. Davis
of Shohola, Pike County, has
an employee who may have
a criminal background that
would, by state law, preclude
that person from coming onto
school property or interacting
with students.
KINGSTON The public
housing sector has already been
hit by at-lined federal budgets
and increased demand and costs
to run its programs. Now with
sequestration, housing authori-
ties across the country face even
deeper cuts.
For local housing authorities,
including the Luzerne County
Housing Authority, the nancial
strains have led to tough deci-
sions, including not replacing
staff members who leave, hold-
ing off on maintenance and re-
pair projects and increasing the
amounts program participants
must pay.
Its been a nightmare, said
Luzerne County Housing Au-
thority Executive Director Da-
vid Fagula. He said tougher de-
cisions will have to be madeas
the new policies and realities
take effect.
He said the authority has fol-
lowed federal Housing and Ur-
ban Development recommenda-
tions to keep the budget as close
to available funds as possible.
That means:
When someone receiving
housing assistance is removed
from the benets list, none of
the more than 900 people on the
waiting list will move onto the
recipients list.
Moving from one jurisdic-
tion to another and retaining
housing assistance will not be
allowed.
Those receiving rent assis-
tance who fail to comply with
established debt repayment
agreements will be removed
from the list.
As budgets become even
tighter, Fagula said, those re-
WEST PITTSTON The
unfair sales-tax advantage some
brick-and-mortar establishments
believe Internet retailers have
could soon be sent to the deleted
folder.
And while one local e-com-
merce business owner doesnt
think the Marketplace Fairness
Act will hurt sales, hes taken is-
sue with the exemptions folded
into the bill.
The U.S. Sen-
ate approved
the act Monday
night in a 70-24
bipartisan vote.
Seven of the
no votes came
from senators
representi ng
states that do not a have sales
tax. The long-debated bill would
lead to millions of consumers
getting charged a sales tax on
purchases made online.
The legislation, which still
needs to gain passage in the
House and the signature of the
president, would allow the 45
states and the District of Colum-
bia that now charge sales tax to
require larger online retailers to
collect sales tax on purchases
made by their residents.
This is really Walmart vs.
Amazon, and were stuck in the
middle, said Spencer Chesman,
president and owner of West
Pittston-based iGourmet, an on-
line retailer of specialty foods
and gift baskets.
The Amazon he referenced
is Amazon.com, an online re-
tailer that had previously been
opposed to such a tax. But as
its grown and set up distribu-
tion centers in multiple states,

Luzerne County Interim Sher-
iff Jack Robshaw said liability
concerns prompted him to dis-
band the departments volunteer
motorcycle unit and dive team.
At least one motorcycle unit
member outtted his private ve-
hicle with warning lights and a
county sheriffs
de p a r t me nt
emblem, which
could mistak-
enly leave the
impression the
volunteer is a
county employ-
ee or ofcial,
Robshaw said.
Other pri-
vately owned
mot orcycl es
had warning
lights and sher-
iff-ofce letter-
ing, he said.
R o b s h a w
said he doesnt
want the public to confuse the
volunteers with staff sheriff
deputies who must undergo for-
mal law-enforcement training.
Motorcycle-unit members were
instructed to return their badg-
es, he said.
He also said he received com-
plaints about some volunteers
acting outside their authority
and was concerned the county
would be blamed or possibly
sued for their actions.
Its a liability risk. The fact
that we had no direct opera-
tional oversight of them created
a bad situation, Robshaw said.
The motorcycle division was
created in 1976 by then-Sheriff
Frank Jagodinski to provide traf-
c control and community pres-
ence at local events, according
to published reports.
The volunteers had to pass
background checks, buy their
own sheriff uniforms and use
their own motorcycles.
Robshaw said about 20 volun-
teers participated in the motor-
cycle unit.
Though he praised volunteers
for giving up their time, he said
municipal police and re depart-
ments can coordinate trafc
control with organizers of pa-
rades and other events in their
jurisdictions.
Jagodinski also was credited
for creating the dive team to

Private vehicles with

Luzerne County Council will
meet at 6 p.m. Tuesday in the
council meeting room at the
county courthouse in Wilkes-
Barre.
DORRANCE TWP. A
township resident told the
board of supervisors on Monday
night that the quality of life for
his family is being compromised
by a trucking company that is
operating 24 hours per day.
Keith Hazlak, of Stairville
Road, said Mountain Express
Trucking is inicting noise,
fumes and dust upon his family
without regard for their health
and welfare
Theres no let up, Hazlak
said.
He said when complaints are
made to the owner of the rm
the problem gets worse.
He asked for legal action be-
cause he said he has determined
the company has neither a high-
way nor an occupancy permit.
But supervisors Gary Zane
and Bill Wengrznek suggested
the company might pre-date ex-
isting regulations and its opera-
tions are grandfathered in.
Hazlak asked that the supervi-
sors consider a noise ordinance.
He also asked that a bump in
the road that causes the trucks
to make more noise be repaired.
The supervisors told Hazlak
they would review the situation
and see what they can do.
In other business:
Supervisors advanced a pav-
ing project for St Marys Road
using $75,000 in Community
Development Funds. Advertise-
ments for contract proposals
will be published by Saturday;
bids are scheduled to be opened
at the June 3 meeting.
The board accepted the
$16,950 bid of Yenason Mechan-
ical to install a propane heating
system in the municipal build-
ing.
Resident Kirk Buchanon
was appointed to the planning
commission through Dec. 31,
2014.
It was stated that a revised
land development application
for the Pennsy Supply Inc. proj-
ect is scheduled to be submitted
and reviewed by the planning
commission on May 20 at 7 p.m.
SWOYERSVILLE Bor-
ough Council accepted police
Chief Tom DiMarias letter
of intent to retire on Monday
night.
DiMaria reected on his ser-
vice to the force since 1986,
saying he had served in every
rank.
You will truly be missed,
Council President Ronald Alu-
nni said. You have done ex-
cellent work in service to the
borough.
The highlights of my ten-
ure include accreditation by
the Pennsylvania Law Enforce-
ment Accreditation Commis-
sion and establishing a canine
unit, said DiMaria, and I re-
main grateful for the support of
the mayor and council.
In another matter, council
addressed the state of borough
streets.
Brook Street is so bad that
ambulance personnel could not
start an IV on my mother while
driving on it and had to drive
down to the bottom of the
street before inserting it, said
one resident.
I recently drove down Brook
Street, said Councilman Chris
Concert, and its pot hole city.
Alunni said borough ofcials
would be assessing streets and
reporting back to council. He
said it was the goal of council
to keep its streets safe for resi-
dents.
In another matter, Secretary
Gene Breznay said the borough
was eligible for a Housing and
Urban Development block
grant for an amount yet to be
determined. Use of grant mon-
ies would be limited to areas
determined to have a popula-
tion of low to moderate income
residents.
Council also opened three
bids for maintenance of pump-
ing stations submitted by
Northeast Electric Services,
Scranton; Site Services Group,
Springbrook Township; and
Pumping Solutions, Wilkes-
Barre. Council will review con-
tents of the bids before its next
meeting.
Mike Amato, borough engi-
neer, said he wanted to ensure
council was comparing apples
to apples, before awarding a
contract.
Council also addressed the
issue of Hose Company No. 1s
re truck being housed in West
Wyoming.
Initially, the truck was
moved to West Wyoming in an
effort to assist that borough af-
ter its own truck was damaged
in 2011.
Council members indicated
that after more than a year,
they had expected the truck
would have returned to the
borough.
Concert requested council
meet with representatives of
all three borough hose compa-
nies to clarify issues. Breznay
said such a meeting would be
scheduled.
Resident Donna Sheedy
asked the council whether open
burning was permitted within
the borough. Alunni conrmed
that no open burning, includ-
ing re pits, was allowed.
The next meeting of council
will be on June 3 at 6:30 p.m.
HAZLE TWP. Hazleton
Area School Board President
Brian Earley warned that the
district will see its insurance
premiums rise more than nec-
essary next year after a vote
to appoint an additional in-
surance broker failed Monday
night.
Board members Bob Childs,
Carmella Yenkevich, Marfy
Yanac and Earley voted to re-
scind a vote in April appoint-
ing Robert Payne and Eastern
Insurance Group as the bro-
ker of record. Tony Bonomo,
Clarence John, Robert Mehal-
ick and Robert Wallace voted
against the move. Steve Hahn
was absent.
Because that move failed,
the next items on the agenda
appointing either Dryfoos
Insurance as the sole broker
of record or Dryfoos as the
broker for WRM/Wright Spe-
cialty Insurance and Eastern
as the broker for the Penn-
sylvania School Board Asso-
ciation Insurance Program
were moot and not voted on.
I just want the public to
know what our board just
did, Earley, board president,
said after the vote. Our
current insurance carrier is
Wright Specialty Insurance
(WRM). Eastern Insurance
Group is (no longer) licensed
to sell that product. So, in
addition to the motion that
was made at the last meeting
where we eliminated competi-
tion in brokers, we have now
just said that we dont want
other insurance companies
giving us quotes on our insur-
ance, and were basically go-
ing to limit that down to two.
Late last month, a school
board vote to split insurance
brokerage, with Dryfoos rep-
resenting one group of com-
panies and Eastern another,
failed 5-4. A vote to appoint
Eastern as sole broker passed
5-4. Previously, both compa-
nies were brokers, but East-
ern had not submitted quotes
for the three years prior to
last year, Early noted.
The board just recently
became aware that WRM/
Wright dissolved a broker-
age contract with Eastern, so
the district can no longer get
quotes for WRM insurance
through Eastern.
Earley said there are three
major players in school dis-
trict liability insurance:
PSBA; Liberty Mutual, which
took over Ohio Casualty; and
WRM/Wright Specialty Insur-
ance. So for us to say were
going to eliminate one third of
the companies that can come
in and offer us a competitive
price, to me, makes no sense,
especially when you look at
what happened last year.
Last year, PSBA wanted to
charge the district a $160,000
premium for school leader lia-
bility coverage. WRM offered
the same product for $40,000,
Earley said.
Bonomo reportedly said
last month that Eastern had
been the districts broker
until Earley became a board
member and pushed for Dry-
foos. Bonomo had said it was
time to give the position back
to Eastern and spread the
wealth.
My concept is if you want
to spread the wealth, do it
with your own money, Ear-
ley said.
Now, because Dryfoos was
appointed for one year as our
broker, all of a sudden, its a
travesty. I hope the taxpay-
ers remember how people are
voting. This is an issue that
will directly impact the bot-
tom line in our school dis-
trict, Earley said.
You start opening that can
of worms, Bonomo said, it
can get pretty ugly if you see
what people have voted over
the past year or two and see
the money that they cost tax-
payers of this area. So I think
its an issue we probably best
not entertain because this
thing could go on and on and
on and each and every one of
us is partially to blame for the
expenses.

In other business, Hazleton Area School Board:
Without any public discussion on the matter that night, voted unani-
mously to terminate a contract with Quandel Inc. the construction
manager for the magnet school project in Butler Township and the
Maple Manor project in Hazle Township.
After the meeting, Earley said the vote had nothing to do with the
mold or backll problems at the magnet school building, the construc-
tion of which Quandel oversaw when the structure was built nine
years ago. It was because the district and Quandel could not agree on
contract language that had to do with liability.
Earley said the board would in the future decide whether to hire an-
other contruction manager or have district staff oversee construction.
He said mold abatement is underway and the magnet school would
open on schedule for the 2013-14 school year.
Approved creating the position of and job description for human
resource manager and advertise the position.
Appointed JoAnn Salko as accounts payable specialist at a salary of
$29,321.46.
Approved Ryan Boris to teach two chemistry classes for dual enroll-
ment at Luzerne County Community College. The cost per student is
$33 per credit; each course is four credits.

W-B Twp. looks at
sewer expansion
WILKES-BARRE TWP.
Township attorney Bruce Phil-
lips discussed a draft proposal
on Monday outlining an agree-
ment with Hanover Township
for the usage of its sewer lines
to accommodate planned com-
mercial expansion in Wilkes-
Barre Township.
Several national hotel and
restaurant chains have ap-
proved plans for expansion in
Wilkes-Barre Township near
the Mohegan Sun Arena and
the Wyoming Valley Mall and
are anxiously awaiting the
councils approval of the agree-
ment so they can move forward
with their projects. Phillips
said the current proposal calls
for Wilkes-Barre Township
to pay Hanover Township an
initial fee of $100,000 payable
over ve years to actualize the
agreement.
Wed be obligated to pay
another $30,000 per year to
cover our share of future main-
tenance costs, Phillips said.
However, they would have to
get our approval for any con-
struction project over $25,000
for the particular lines wed be
using.
Phillips said the mainte-
nance fee would not be payable
until Jan. 1, 2014.
Council agreed to schedule
a meeting on May 20 at 7 p.m.
to vote on nal passage of the
ordinance entering into the
sewer sharing agreement.
PLYMOUTH TWP. Con-
struction on Tilbury Terrace
will begin within the next two
to three weeks along with the
paving of parts of Coal Street,
Jesse Road, and Mizdale Road,
Township Supervisor Joseph
Yudichak said at Monday
nights board meeting.
Krigger and Co. was award-
ed the contract for the project
at the April 29 special board
meeting. In another matter,
several residents complained
that teenagers are quad riding,
partying and vandalizing prop-
erty in the vicinity of the West
Side Landll. Residents said
some of the young people have
red shots at the homes in the
area during the early-morning
hours.When confronted by the
homeowners, the young van-
dals used profane language and
made threats toward the resi-
dents, the residents said. One
resident said that the young
people know that no one pa-
trols the area and they can get
away with this conduct. Also,
excessive dumping of trash
in the area is becoming a nui-
sance. Yudichak said the state
Department of Environmental
Protection will require cleanup
after the land is surveyed and
before the land is sold. On
April 25, the township solicited
bids to sell the land.
NEPA Alliances Alan Baran-
ski said the townships earned
income tax collection is com-
ing in well ahead of schedule,
as compared with last year.
The next meeting will be on
Monday, June 3 at 6 p.m.

BEAR CREEK TWP. The
new franchise agreement be-
tween Bear Creek Township
and Service Electric Cable TV
will result in some free inter-
net service for three buildings
in the township, township of-
cials said Monday.
The agreement charges the
cable company the highest
percentage fee allowed by law,
Supervisor Chairman Gary
Zingaretti said, and will in-
clude complimentary Internet
service to two township build-
ings and the community center
in the former St. Christophers
Church as a service to the peo-
ple of the township.
The agreement nets the
township about $40,000 in in-
come annually and helps keep
property taxes down, Zingaretti
said.
The supervisors also ap-
proved a resolution allowing
the township to go ahead with
the acquisition of a blighted
park in the Forest Park develop-
ment. Zingaretti said the town-
ship will take over the park and
its maintenance and keep it as a
park for the community.
In other business, the su-
pervisors noted reports from
the township engineers will be
used as the basis for soliciting
bids for work on Weiss Road
and in the Laurelbrook area.
Core samples will be taken
from Laurelbrook Road to de-
termine the stability of the
structure under the road and
set the parameters for how the
job is bid, it was noted.
The supervisors also heard
from resident Becky Dotzel,
who lives near the intersec-
tion of Pittston Boulevard and
Swanson Road. Dotzel raised
concerns about speeding in the
area, noting that a fence on her
property was hit over the week-
end and other accidents have
occurred near her home in the
past, and she said she has con-
cerns about the safety of her
three children.
She asked that the supervi-
sors consider adding two ad-
ditional stop signs to turn the
intersection into a three-way
stop to curb the speed of cars
in the area.
Zingaretti said Pittston Bou-
levard is a state road and the
supervisors will make a request
to PennDOT to add the stop
signs.

PLYMOUTH A father and son
both covered in blood turned their
battle with each other into a ght with
police at an apartment on East Main
Street late Sunday night, according to
charges led.
Police said they forced their way
into the apartment after hearing a man
screaming for help at about 11:48 p.m.
David OKane, 53, address listed as
homeless and living along the Susque-
hanna River, was allegedly choking his
son, Jason OKane, 28, police said.
Police allege in arrest records when
they tried to break up the ght, the
OKanes began assaulting ofcers.
David OKane was charged with
three counts each of reckless endan-
germent, simple assault and terroristic
threats, two counts each of aggravated
assault, harassment
and disorderly con-
duct and a single
count of institution-
al vandalism.
Jason OKane was
charged with three
counts of reckless
endangerment, two
counts each of ter-
roristic threats and
disorderly conduct
and one count each
of simple assault,
resisting arrest and
harassment.
Thefather andson
were arraigned Mon-
day by District Judge Diana Malast in
Plains Township and both jailed at the
Luzerne County Correctional Facility
for lack of $25,000 bail each.
According to the criminal com-
plaints:
Shea OKane told police his father
and brother were ghting and going
crazy inside an apartment at 171 E.
Main St. Police heard a man screaming
for help and forced open the front door,
spotting David OKane choking Jason
OKane. The two men were covered in
blood, police said.
Police separated the two men and
advised them they were being arrest-
ed.
David OKane and Jason OKane re-
fused to place their hands behind their
head and began ghting with ofcers,
the complaints say.
Police say David OKane had to be
stunned by a Taser after he kicked an
ofcer twice in the face. Jason OKane
allegedly told ofcers they have to
watch our backs because he will kill
us, the complaints say.
David OKane allegedly grabbed an
ofcer, tore his uniform and wiped
blood all over a cell bed.
Police said David OKane fought
with paramedics who were sum-
moned to treat him for having a hard
time breathing, according to the com-
plaints.
Preliminary hearings are scheduled
on May 15 before District Judge Don-
ald Whittaker in Nanticoke.
WILKES-BARRE City Police Chief Ge-
rard Dessoye is investigating circumstances
of a picture that depicts a woman about
to lick the badge of a police detective, city
spokesman DrewMcLaughlin said Monday.
Three pictures were emailed to The Times
Leader over the weekend in response to a
story about the city police departments spe-
cial detail program, which involves off-duty
police ofcers working security for private
businesses and school events.
One of the pictures clearly shows a city po-
lice detective wearing a Wilkes-Barre Police
Department uniform standing face to face
with a woman who is about to lick his badge.
The picture shows the former Hardware
Bar on South Main Street in the background.
TheHardwareBar has sincebeenrenamed
Susquehanna Ale House.
The two other pictures show a scantily
cladwomansquattingandgrabbingthe radio
antenna on the rear of a police cruiser, and
another scantily clad woman lying across the
hood of a cruiser.
McLaughlin said those two pictures ap-
pear to have been taken in another city, per-
haps Scranton.
It remains unknown when the pictures
were taken or who took the pictures.
Wilkes-Barre Police Chief Gerard Des-
soye is investigating the circumstances sur-
rounding these photos, McLaughlin said in
an email.
Upon initial review, judging by the type
of uniform worn by the ofcer and the lack
of a wireless antenna for the RMS systemon
the vehicle, we believe it to be at minimum
a year old. Furthermore, the police chief be-
lieves there was no criminal misconduct by
our ofcer but he appears to have violated
departmental regulations. Upon determin-
ing the full facts of the case, appropriate dis-
ciplinary action will be administered by the
chief.
PITTSTON The U.S. Environ-
mental Protection Agency on Mon-
day began a ve-day training exer-
cise at the Butler Mine Tunnel site
on the Susquehanna River just in
case.
Mitch Cron, EPA eld representa-
tive, said the primary threat posed
by the tunnel is a ush-out of oil into
the Susquehanna River.
He said a ush-out from the tun-
nel has not occurred since 1985, but
if one were to happen it would be a
threat to the river.
Cron said the ve-day training ex-
ercise in Pittston is being conducted
to test the emergency response sys-
tem for the Superfund site.
During the exercise, contractors
along with local emergency respond-
ers will use two large work boats, a
small barge, and several hundred
feet of orange containment boom,
Cron said.
He said portions of Pittstons Riv-
erfront Park will not be accessible
for public use through Friday.
According to EPA les, the Butler
Mine Tunnel was built in the 1930s
as a collection and discharge point
for mine drainage from a 5-square-
mile area of underground coal mines.
It was placed on EPAs Superfund list
in 1987 after incidents in 1979 and
1985, when an oily discharge from
the tunnel owed into the Susque-
hanna River near Pittston.
Cron said that although there have
been no recent releases, EPA re-
quired the companies responsible for
the previous incidents to construct a
containment/collection system that
could be deployed in the event of a
future spill to help minimize the im-
pact.
He said EPA also required con-
struction of a system to monitor
tunnel ows and severe weather pat-
terns that could affect ow levels.
Cron said this weeks exercise is
the third full-scale, on-river training
exercise since the containment and
monitoring systems were completed
in 2005.

Since 1986
WORCESTER, Mass. A
magistrate judge on Monday
agreed to release a friend of Bos-
ton Marathon bombing suspect
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev from federal
custody while he awaits trial for
allegedly lying to federal investi-
gators.
Robel Phillipos, 19, was
charged last week with lying to
investigators about visiting Tsar-
naevs college dorm room after
the bombings. The University of
Massachusetts Dartmouth stu-
dent faces a maximum of eight
years inprisonif convicted.
Prosecutors initiallyaskedthat
Phillipos be held while he awaits
trial, arguing he poses a serious
ight risk. But both sides said
in a court motion led Monday
they agreedthat Phillipos should
be released on $100,000 bond,
face home connement and
wear an electronic monitoring
bracelet.
Assistant U.S. Attorney John
Capin said documents led
over the weekend by Phillipos
defense attorneys, including
many afdavits from family and
friends, might be viewed as in-
directly questioning the govern-
ments case against Phillipos.
Defense attorney Susan
Church emphasized that Philli-
posisnot accusedof helpingplan
or carry out the bombings.
Magistrate Judge Marianne
Bowler agreedtothestrict house
arrest during a hearing Monday
afternoon. She told Phillipos he
was allowed to leave the house
only for meetings with his law-
yers or true emergencies. It was
not immediatelyclear whenPhil-
lipos wouldbe released.
Meanwhile, a funeral direc-
tor trying to nd a cemetery to
take the body of Tsarnaevs older
brother, Tamerlan, pledged to
ask the city of Cambridge to al-
low him to be buried in a city-
owned cemetery because the
brothers lived in Cambridge for
the past decade. But Cambridge
City Manager Robert Healy said
heisurgingTsarnaevsfamilynot
to make the request.
Worcester funeral director
Peter Stefan said he hasnt been
able to nd a cemetery in Mas-
sachusetts willing to accept the
remains of Tamerlan, who was
killed after a gunbattle with po-
lice four days after the bombings.

AUtah prosecutor says he plans to de-

le against a teenager accused of punch-
ing a soccer referee who later died after
slipping into a coma.
Salt Lake County District Attorney
SimGill says he and his teamare review-
ing the evidence and state statutes to
determine appropriate charges. Gill says
there are strict rules to follow because
the suspect is a juvenile.
Police saythe 17-year-old, whose name
hasnt been released, struck the 46-year-
old Ricardo Portillo in the side of the
head during a recreational soccer league
match after the referee called a penalty.
Portillo died Saturday after a week in

Court-martial inmilitarymurder
A court-martial is under way at Joint

Sgt. John Russell, of Sherman, Texas,
already pleaded guilty to the killings but

premeditated. Prosecutors will seek to
prove that Russell plotted the shootings
in advance.
Russell went on a shooting spree at

Whom to
blame for
chemical
weapons?
WASHINGTON The White
House asserted Monday that its
highly likely that Syrian President
Bashar Assads regime, not the
rebel opposition, was behind any
chemical weapons use in Syria.
Responding to weekend airstrikes
in Syria, the White House also
reiterated its view that Israel has
the right to protect itself against
weapons that could pose a threat
to Israelis.
White House spokesman Jay
Carney says there is certainly evi-
dence that chemical weapons have
been used in Syria. And on Sunday,
a member of a U.N. panel investi-
gating events in Syria said there
were indications rebel forces had
used the nerve agent sarin.
But Carney questioned that
claim.
We are highly skeptical of sug-
gestions that the opposition could
have or did use chemical weapons,
he said. We nd it highly likely
that any chemical weapon use that
has taken place in Syria was done
by the Assad regime. And that re-
mains our position.
Carneys comments came as
Syria remained one of the most
high-prole issues confronting the
administration. Air strikes over
the weekend on alleged Hezbollah-
bound weapons in Syria and the
status of chemical weapons use
kept the countrys civil war at the
forefront. Lebanons Hezbollah mi-
litia is an ally of Syria and foe of
Israel.
The weekend airstrike on a
military complex near the Syr-
ian capital of Damascus killed at
least 42 Syrian soldiers, a group of
anti-regime activists said Monday,
citing information from military
hospitals.
The Israeli government has not
formally conrmed that it carried
out the air strikes Friday and Sun-
day, and Carney referred specic
questions about the strikes to Is-
rael.
Israel certainly has the right to
be concerned about the transfer of
sophisticated weapons to Hezbol-
lah, Carney said. And that has
been a concern of Israels for a long
time. The transfer of sophisticated
weapons to terrorist organizations
like Hezbollah is certainly a con-
cern and a threat to Israel, and they
have the right to act in their own
sovereign interest in response to
those concerns.
Asked whether the U.S. had been
warned about the strikes, Carney
said: We are in close coordination
as a matter of course with the Israe-
lis and continue to be.
White House points to Syrian
president; U.N. claims rebel
forces used sarin gas.

The 17-year sleeper poses no threat to daily life
WASHINGTON Any day now, bil-
lions of cicadas with bulging red eyes will
crawl out of the earth after 17 years under-
ground and overrun the East Coast. The
insects will arrive in such numbers that
people from North Carolina to Connecti-
cut will be outnumbered roughly 600 to 1.
Maybe more.
Scientists even have a horror-movie
name for the infestation: Brood II. But as
ominous as that sounds, the insects are
harmless. They wont hurt you or other
animals. At worst, they might damage a
few saplings or young shrubs. Mostly they
will blanket certain pockets of the region,
though lots of people wont ever see them.
Its not like these hordes of cicadas suck
blood or zombify people, says May Beren-
baum, a University of Illinois entomologist.
Theyre looking for just one thing: sex.
And theyve been waiting quite a long time.
Since 1996, this group of 1-inch bugs, in
wingless nymph form, has been a few feet
underground, sucking on tree roots and
biding their time. They will emerge only
when the ground temperature reaches pre-
cisely 64 degrees. After a few weeks up in
the trees, they will die and their offspring
will go underground, not to return until
2030.
Its just an amazing accomplishment,
Berenbaum says. How can anyone not be
impressed?
And they will make a big racket, too.
The noise all the male cicadas make when
they sing for sex can drown out your own
thoughts, and maybe even rival a rock con-
cert. In 2004, Gene Kritsky, an entomolo-
gist at the College of Mount St. Joseph in
Cincinnati, measured cicadas at 94 deci-
bels, saying it was so loud you dont hear
planes ying overhead.
There are ordinary cicadas that come
out every year around the world, but these
are different. Theyre calledmagicicadas
as in magic and are red-eyed. And these
magicicadas are seen only in the eastern
half of the United States, nowhere else in
the world.
Several experts say that they really dont
have a handle on how many cicadas are
lurking underground but that 30 billion
seems like a good estimate. At the Smith-
sonian Institution, researcher Gary Hevel
thinks it may be more like 1 trillion.
Even if its merely 30 billion, if they were
lined up head to tail, theyd reach the moon
and back.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. A
stretch limousine that burst into
ames on a San Francisco Bay
bridge, killing ve women inside,
was carrying one too many pas-
sengers, investigators said Mon-
day.
The state Public Utilities Com-
mission had authorized the vehi-
cle to carry eight or fewer passen-
gers, but it had nine on the night
of the deadly re, California High-
way Patrol Capt. Mike Maskarich
said. He did not comment on
whether the overcrowding may
have beena factor inthe deaths.
The cause of the blaze remains
under investigation, and the ve-
hicle has not yet been inspected,
Maskarichsaid.
The Lincoln Town Car was
packed with young women cel-
ebrating a girls night out with a
newlywed bride when it went up

was among the dead.

Emergency responders investigate the scene of a

was carrying nine women on a girls night out.
Tunnel history
The Superfund site was
caused by the illegal disposal
of liquid industrial wastes,
including oily wastes, into
underground mine areas via
a mine ventilation borehole
that was located at the Hi-
Way Auto Service station in
Pittston.
In 1979, an oily discharge
coming from the tunnel cre-
ated an oil slick on the river.
The contamination was
traced to the illegal dumping
at the station borehole, which
was found to drain into parts
of the underground mine ar-
eas for the Butler Mine Tun-
nel.
The Hi-Way Auto Service
station borehole is located
about 3.5 miles from the out-
let of the mine tunnel into the
Susquehanna River.
Nearly 25,000 people live
within a ve-mile radius of
the site, and 1,400 people live
within the boundaries of the
Butler Mine Tunnel site.
WILKES-BARRE A
woman charged with cover-
ing up the circumstances sur-
rounding the deadly shooting
of 14-year-old Tyler Winstead
13 months ago now will face
three additional charges at
her trial this week.
Prosecutors last week
sought to reinstate three of
the six charges against An-
gelina DeAbreu, 31, of East
Stroudsburg, that had been
withdrawn when she agreed
last year to plead guilty.
Luzerne County Judge
David Lupas granted that re-
quest Monday before a panel
of 100 potential jurors began
answering questions during
jury selection.
DeAbreu originally faced
charges of corruption of mi-
nors, tampering with evidence
and false reports that incrimi-
nated another person, as well
as hindering the investiga-
tion by concealing evidence,
hindering the investigation
by providing false informa-
tion to law enforcement and
providing false reports to law
enforcement.
The last three of those
charges were taken off the ta-
ble when DeAbreu agreed to
plead guilty
to the rst
three charges
in Novem-
ber. But, af-
ter learning
prosecutors
were seek-
ing a term of
incarceration at a sentencing
hearing, DeAbreu pulled that
plea.
The (original) agreement
wasnt followed (by prosecu-
tors), DeAbreus attorney,
TomMarsilio, told Lupas. We
had reached an agreement be-
cause (prosecutors) were not
pushing for incarceration
but later they were.
Assistant District Attorney
Mamie Phillips said DeAbreu
and her attorneys were aware
of the six original charges,
and that DeAbreu would face
all six if she ended up not
pleading guilty.
Attorneys then began indi-
vidually questioning jurors,
after Marsilio in recent weeks
had asked the trial be held
in another county because of
pre-trial publicity.
More than half of the po-
tential jury panel said they
had heard something about
the case, and about 15 were
questioned Monday afternoon
in more detail. Jury selection
will continue today.
One juror said he felt sym-
pathy for DeAbreu in trying to
protect her son, while another
juror said she could under-
stand DeAbreus actions as a
mother.
Other jurors said they
would be more likely to be-
lieve a police ofcer over
other witnesses who testied,
while others said they already
had an opinion on DeAbreus
guilt.
Police say Tyler Winstead
was shot on April 5, 2012,
inside DeAbreus former Hill
Street, Wilkes-Barre, home,
when her son, Elijah Yusiff,
14, removed a .22-caliber re-
volver from a book-shaped
case.
Winstead was sitting on a
bed in a bedroom when Yusiff
turned with his nger on the
trigger and the gun went off,
according to the criminal
complaint. The bullet struck
Winstead in the chest, killing
him.
After the shooting, Yusiff
told police and reporters his
friend was shot outside by a
man who drove away in a red
Ford, according to court pa-
pers. Investigators allege De-
Abreu hid the gun and Yusiff
hid the shell casing in a pile
of scrap behind Winsteads
grandparents home on Hill
Street.
Yusiff was charged in juve-
nile court with an unknown
offense in May 2012. He is ex-
pected to be called to testify
during his mothers trial.
Dowd initially denied he se-
cretly recorded women in the
restroom, and told police he
may have left it behind while
cleaning the facilities. When
confronted with the videos that
were retrieved by state police,
Dowd allegedly admitted he re-
corded women in the restroom
and would watch the videos be-
cause of his addiction to pornog-
raphy, according to the criminal
complaint.
He was arraigned by District
Judge Andrew Barilla on two
counts of invasion of privacy
and one count each of unsworn
falsication to authorities and
tampering with evidence. He
was released on $1,000 unse-
cured bail.
According to the complaint:
Awaitress discovered the cell-
phone hidden behind a childs
seat in a stall on April 11. She
noticed the phone had been
recording video for at least 29
minutes.
The waitress gave the phone
to the restaurant owner. When
an attempt was made to turn off
the phone, a photo of Dowds
dog appeared.
Dowd was given the phone
and denied any wrongdoing to
the restaurant owner and police.
He allegedly told police he may
have left his phone while clean-
ing the ladies restroom, the
complaint says.
Police said two deleted videos
of another waitress using the re-
stroom were recovered from the
phone by state police.
Dowd told police he has been
in therapy for an addiction to
pornography and allegedly ad-
mitted to concealing his phone
in the restroom, recording ve
videos of women for the last
month.
He said he deleted the videos
after watching the recordings at
work.
A preliminary hearing is
scheduled for May 15.

Police: Woman attacked at gas pump
Trial for DeAbreu begins
PITTSTON Police arrest-
ed a man they said attacked a
woman pumping gasoline Mon-
day at Turkey Hill on South
Main Street.
Charles Christopher Darr, 25,
of Richmond, Ind., may have
been under the inuence of sev-
eral controlled substances, po-
lice said, when he approached a
woman at the gasoline island at
about 7:30 a.m.
According to the criminal
complaint:
Darr asked the woman for
her cellphone. She replied she
did not have a phone, and Darr
became angry and yelled at her
that she must have a phone be-
cause she has a bank card.
The woman said Darr
grabbed and choked her. She
screamed for help as another
man was pumping gasoline at
another island.
Darr grabbed the bank card
from the woman who, in turn,
took it off him. He tried to grab
the womans car keys from her
hand, resulting in the woman
suffering an injury.
Police said Darr ran into the
store and stood near the en-
trance yelling, Its a conspiracy
and theyre setting me up.
Darr continued to yell and re-
sisted arrest, police said. Police
said they had to stun Darr sev-
eral times with a Taser until he
was detained inside the store.
Darr escaped from the store,
kicked an ofcer and was tack-
led by a patron in the parking
lot, police said. Police trans-
ported Darr to Wilkes-Barre
General Hospital where he was
treated.
At his arraignment before
District Judge Andrew Barilla
Monday afternoon, Darr said he
was staying with a relative for a
few days.
Darr was charged with rob-
bery, aggravated assault, simple
assault, reckless endangerment,
resisting arrest, escape and ha-
rassment. He was jailed at the
Luzerne County Correctional
Facility for lack of $100,000
bail.
Police said he has a robbery
conviction in Indiana. Darr told
Barilla he served four years for
the robbery conviction.
A preliminary hearing is
scheduled for May 15.

ED LEWIS/THE TIMES LEADER
WILKES-BARRE Pros-
ecutors in the case of Hugo Sel-
enski, accused in a 2002 double
murder, said in court papers
led Monday that they have not
engaged in any misconduct in
the case, as alleged by Selenskis
attorneys.
In December, attorneys for
Selenski led court papers alleg-
ing misconduct when prosecu-
tors obtained Selenskis medical
records this past summer.
Selenski, 39, of Kingston
Township, is awaiting trial in
the May 2002 deaths of Michael
Kerkowski and Tammy Fassett,
both 38. Their bodies were
unearthed from the property
where Selenski was living in
June 2003. A trial is scheduled
for June 24.
Attorneys Shelley Centini and
Edward Rymsza in papers led
in Luzerne County Court called
the conduct illegal and asked
a judge to impose a number of
sanctions against prosecutors,
including a $1,000 daily ne.
Centini and Rymsza said in
their ling that prosecutors
obtained medical and psychi-
atric records of Selenski, even
though at no time during the
course of the case has Selenski
made either his mental or physi-
cal health an issue.
Prosecutors said Monday
that they obtained the records
in preparation for the trial, they
are secured and no prosecutor
has seen them.
The commonwealth is not
required to remain unprepared
in the event defense decides to
raise a mental-health issue at
the eleventh hour, prosecutors
wrote.
A hearing on the issue is
scheduled for next week before
county Judge Fred Pierantoni.

Lisa Hall-
Zi el i ns ki ,
director of
the Small

col l abora-
tive program

small businesses to offer more
internship opportunities to area
students by connecting the busi-
nesses with colleges and univer-
sities in Northeastern Pennsyl-
vania.
Hall-Zielinski said three
downtown Scranton business-
es will participate in the pilot
program with hopes of ex-
panding the initiative to other
areas.
The Rev. Kevin P. Quinn,
S.J., president of the Uni-
versity of Scranton, said the
new program is a natural out-
growth of the Downtown En-
gagement Initiative, which, he
said, has drawn thousands of
students, parents, faculty and
staff into downtown Scranton
in new ways.
The Internship Initiative
will encourage our students and
those enrolled at our sister col-
leges and universities in North-
eastern Pennsylvania to take
advantage of all that downtown
Scranton has to offer, Quinn
said.
Lackawanna County Commis-
sioner Chairman Corey OBrien
said the program could have a
long-termpositive impact on ad-
dressing the regions unemploy-
ment problem.
We need to change the em-
ployment trends, OBrien said.
We need to take a multifac-
eted approach. As this program
grows, more and more students
will have the opportunity to
learn about the city and the re-
gion and hopefully stay here af-
ter they graduate.
Hall-Zielinski said the rst
three businesses for the down-
town pilot are Condron & Co.,
Carl Von Luger Steak &Seafood
and Fanciful Fox. Representa-
tives from Marywood Univer-

The Philadelphia jury in the
murder trial of abortion doc-
tor Kermit Gosnell on Monday
began its fourth full day of de-
liberations getting the judge to
again review the law involving
homicide.
Common Pleas Court Judge
Jeffrey P. Minehart then in-
structed the jury about the
denitions of rst- and third-
degree murder and involun-
tary manslaughter.
The jury of seven women
and ve men must decide if
Gosnell, 72, is guilty of rst-
or third-degree murder in the
deaths of four babies allegedly
born alive during illegal late-
term abortions and killed by
him or his staff.
The jury could also acquit
Gosnell of the charges if they
nd that the prosecution did
not prove its case beyond a
reasonable doubt.
The jury is also considering
whether Gosnell is guilty of
third-degree murder or invol-
untary manslaughter in the
2009 death of abortion patient
Karnamaya Mongar, 41, of Vir-
ginia, who allegedly died of an
overdose of Demerol adminis-
tered by Gosnells untrained
staff.
According to the judge,
rst-degree murder involves
the malicious premeditated
killing of another human be-
ing. Third-degree murder is
a killing without premedita-
tion but involving malice and
a reckless disregard for the
consequences of the killers
acts.
Involuntary manslaugh-
ter involves a death through
recklessness or negligence
but without premeditation
or malice on the part of the
killer.
Abortion docs jury
reviewing charges
Gosnell charged with murder
in deaths of babies allegedly
born alive at his clinic.

OUR OPINION: ThaNK a TeaCheR
An editorial apple
for our teachers
F
ORGET THE debate
over teacher pay and
contract rancor, drop,
for a moment, any envy
of the (largely misguided) no-
tion that all teachers get three
months off each summer. Re-
member instead, the teacher
who inuenced you most, the
educator who exposed you to
your favorite avocation, the one
who worked as mentor, coach or
condante
This is National Teacher day,
and while there can be little
doubt some would prefer to bash
teachers, it is an excellent oppor-
tunity to remember the many
things they do meriting praise.
As evidence, consider these
results from a survey conducted
by Kars4kids, a national charity
that uses car donations to raise
money for education:
80 percent of adults recog-
nize that their work ethic, volun-
teer time, and even career choice
was a direct result of teachers
who inspired them.
78 percent had an out-of-
classroom experience with their
teacher enhancing learning.
61 percent believe that a
teacher taught them skills out-
side of the standard curriculum.
Nearly three quarters of
adults said they would want
their children to have the same
teachers they did.
Or if you prefer celebrity roll
models, there are these testimo-
nies:
Oprah Winfrey has said she
wouldnt be where I am today
without my fourth grade teach-
er. Hilary Swank cites a teacher
for giving her my rst acting
job in my school production of
The Jungle Book
Maybe you would consider a
cue from politicians.
Paul Ryancredits a highschool
teacher who taught me more
about the world in six months
than I had learned in 18 years.
John Kerry cites his schools rst
black teacher for getting him
interested in the growing civil
rights movement.
There is no end to the ways
teachers helped, and help, shape
lives. There is no shortage of tes-
timonies to the value of a good
teacher. And if you still need
evidence, recall the sacrice of
the teachers trying to protect
students during the Sandy Hook
tragedy.
So go ahead, take a moment,
remember the teacher you liked
best. Thank the teacher your
child raves about. Many of them
work hard, care a great deal, and
merit a moment of appreciation.

Penny Pritzker
knows commerce
W
HEN BUSINESS lead-
ers complain that Pres-
ident Barack Obama
has been at best neglectful and
at worst hostile toward the na-
tions job creators, they cite a
long list of grievances.
On the list is that when
Obama assembled his rst Cabi-
net, he passed over the business
community and picked a lawyer
and politician, Gary Locke, to be
secretary of commerce.
Obamas second commerce
secretary, John Bryson, had the
business pedigree, but resigned
for health reasons last year.
The Department of Com-
merce has been star-crossed
during this administration.
That should change now.
Were greatly encouraged by
Obamas third choice.
Yes, Penny Pritzker is a friend,
campaign contributor and fund-
raiser for the president.
But Pritzker has exceptionally
strong credentials. She has the
real-world executive experience
and personal gravitas. She has a
reputation for being candid. She
could help Obama turn around
his troubled relationship with
the leaders of industry.
In business circles, the Pritz-
ker name is golden. Patriarch
A.N. Pritzker made a fortune in-
vesting in real estate and Chica-
go-area businesses. His son, Jay,
expanded the family enterprise
into the multibillion-dollar Mar-
mon Group. He built Hyatt Ho-
tels Corp. into a far-ung chain.
Penny Pritzker is the daughter
of Jays brother, Hyatt co-found-
er Donald.
Pritzker will face intense scru-
tiny.
During the early 1990s, she
chaired Superior Bank, a subur-
ban Chicago lender her family
co-owned that later collapsed
amid accounting irregularities
and subprime loans gone bad.
Federal regulators seized it in
2001.
She will undergo the grilling,
and then she should be con-
rmed.
As a longtime friend of the
presidents, Pritzker has his
trust. We hope, as commerce
secretary, she has his ear.

qUOTe OF The DaY
Controller candidate asks
for voter support
A
s a candidate for Luzerne County
Controller, I ask voters to compare
my experience, employment and educa-
tion with the other candidates in the race.
I feel very strongly that my qualications
set me apart to fulll the necessary duties
and requirements from the very rst day
in ofce.
The controller serves as the indepen-
dent watchdog over scal and manage-
ment activities while also monitoring and
examining government operations.
The controller also has the authority
to conduct scal performance audits for
nearly every facet in county government
to ensure transparency and foster trust
with taxpayers.
For the past 24 years, I have worked in
nance and management within the pub-
lic and private sectors. This has given me
a wide breadth of experience that I will ap-
ply wisely as your controller.
For nine years, I served as the branch
ofce manager of an investment securi-
ties rm where I administered and recon-
ciled client accounts and contracts. I also
worked with internal regulatory auditors
and created reports.
During my 10 years in banking, I suc-
cessfully cross-trained in both operations
and nance.
I have supervised employees in many as-
pects of business including payroll, book-
keeping and ensuring valid and accurate
payment of income, dividends and com-
missions.
In addition, I have proudly served as the
elected tax collector of Conyngham Town-
ship since 2009. This experience will al-
low me audit both the nances and opera-
tions of the county.
I studied Corporate Trust Operations at
the Cannon Financial Institute at the Uni-
versity of North Carolina and accounting
at Penn State. I also participated in the
Municipal Tax Collector Programwith the
Governors Center for Local Government
Service to hone my nancial skills.
I have condence that my employment
and education will be great assets to fulll
the duties and responsibilities as Luzerne
County Controller and humbly ask for
your vote on Election Day, Tuesday, May
21.

Three related issues drive up the cost of health care
In the rush to approve
certain provisions in the
Affordable Care Act and
the subsequent excitement
that surrounded the mis-
conception that all Ameri-
cans now will be covered
by inexpensive health care
insurance, one looming
question has been linger-
ing unanswered: How
much will it cost?
The answer is a lot.
President Obamas
hallmark legislation was
passed in partisan fashion
in March 2010. Work to
implement the complicat-
ed legislation in the ensu-
ing years has uncovered increased costs for
most associated with health care coverage.
Misericordia University, for example, will
experience a 9-percent increase in premi-
ums from its insurance provider for the up-
coming 2013-2014 academic year.
Societys desire to provide adequate
health care for all of its citizens is admira-
ble. The concept of insuring a signicantly
larger pool of people and, thus, spreading
the nancial risk among more individuals
is also reasonable. The costs associated
with the Affordable Care Act, though, are
high and the countrys new health care plan
does not do enough to address these costs.
Americans already pay more for health care
procedures and prescription medications
than do the citizens of most other devel-
oped countries.
In 2012, for example, the cost for an ap-
pendectomy in the United States ranged
from $8,156 to $29,500, according to the In-
ternational Federation of Health. In Austra-
lia, the same procedure cost $5,457, while it
cost $5,498 and $3,408 in the Netherlands
and the United Kingdom, respectively. In
the same year, the normal delivery of a baby
in the United States cost between $7,262
and $16,753. In Australia, the United King-
dom and New Zealand, babies were deliv-
ered for $6,846, $2,641 and $2,386. These
examples demonstrate the problem with
rising health care costs in the United States.
Our high prices are caused by three seem-
ingly intractable, but interrelated problems.
1. The payment side of the health care
market in the United States is fragmented.
A number of insurance companies have
relatively weak bargaining power, especially
against an increasingly consolidated health
care sector. This eld decreases further
because of the new law, which also passes
along more of the cost of Medicare onto pri-
vate insurers. The United States propensity
toward litigation and malpractice suits also
raises the price of care and insurance con-
siderably.
2. There are few incentives for health
care users to shop for the best price and
best quality for their care. This problem is
compounded by the lack of transparency in
the pricing of health care and prescriptions.
Patients also are not motivated to compare
prices and outcomes unless a signicant
portion of the cost comes out of their own
pockets. The price of various medical pro-
cedures and medications can vary signi-
cantly even within a single city.
If you will, visualize a supermarket where
there are no prices on the products. Fur-
thermore, you do not pay for your items at
this supermarkets checkout counter, but in-
stead you are charged a bi-monthly fee that
is deducted from your paycheck and from
your employer. Given this situation, how
can you make a rational choice about price
versus quality? Can you make better judg-
ments about which groceries to buy when
you are fully informed and can compare the
cost to the value of the product? In most
cases, the answer is yes.
3. And lastly, often teams of health care
professionals, such as nurse practitioners
and physician assistants, deliver the same
quality of care at a much lower cost. These
health care professionals and others in spe-
cialty elds like physical therapy and oc-
cupational therapy can lower the cost of
health care when they are used effectively
in team settings with primary care physi-
cians. It is for this reason that Misericordia
University and some other institutions of
higher education have created undergradu-
ate and graduate programs in these elds of
study that prepare competent and compas-
sionate clinicians that can offer quality care
at affordable prices.
Solving the health care cost issue starts
with more transparent pricing for the con-
sumer and a far greater reliance on a variety
of health care professionals other than pri-
mary care physicians to cure much of what
ails us. It is also very dependent upon creat-
ing incentives for people to shop for health
care and medicine wisely, and to stay well.
If we work to make these changes, perhaps
affordable health care is in all of our futures.

COMMENTARY
MI CHAEL MACdowELL
ALLEN MI NoR
MacDowell
Minor
If we screw up and make a
bad decision, its our fault, he
said.
Councilman Edward Bromin-
ski also opposed both nomi-
nees, questioning the selection
process. He said two of the
screening-committee members
for the corrections positions
should have abstained from
the process because they were
from other counties and knew
Nesbitt personally.
Councilman Stephen A.
Urban said he voted against
Parsniks hiring as 911 direc-
tor when Urban was a commis-
sioner but said he changed his
position because he has been
impressed with Parsniks per-
formance.
Urban said he cant sup-
port Nesbitts hiring because
Nesbitt resigned as warden in
Bucks County at the request of
county commissioners after a
series of investigations and ar-
rests of prison employees.
Those issues happened on
your watch, Urban told Nes-
bitt.
Maddon Curry said she had
a few concerns about Nesbitt
but was satised with his ex-
planation during the executive
session. She thanked him for
his candor.
Kelleher concurred. I was
very concerned coming in. You
changed my mind.
Hazleton Police Chief Frank
DeAndrea endorsed Nesbitt
during public comment. Nes-
bitt worked as vice president of
correctional services for Min-
Sec Companies LLC, which
operated a halfway house in the
citys downtown.
DeAndrea said Nesbitt
worked with him to address
concerns about the facility, al-
lowing city police access to the
residents and a database that
tracks clients as they leave.
I can think of no one better
to run the prison, DeAndrea
said of Nesbitt. I feel this is the
best thing not only for my com-
munity but the county.
Parsnik said he looks forward
to his new assignment.
Im ready to move forward
and do what needs to be done.
Im excited. I will make this
work, Parsnik said.
Nesbitt was busy chatting
with council members after the
vote, saying he understands
concerns and is determined to
prove himself in the new posi-
tion.
Lawton also announced he
has selected county Planning/
Zoning Director Adrian Merolli
as acting manager if he is ab-
sent. Joe Gibbons, the prior
designee, left for other employ-
ment. Lawton said Merolli has
an outstanding reputation
during his 30 years with the
county and is known for his dil-
igence and integrity. The desig-
nation, required by home rule,
does not come with additional
compensation.
Council also approved Wil-
liams motion to proceed with
the online posting of all emails
exchanged between council
members.
Also, the county will pro-
vide copies of Right-to-Know-
requested emails on computer
disks for a fee of $5 to $10 in-
stead of printing them out and
charging 25 cents per page,
Lawton said.
Citizen Kathy Dobash chal-
lenged the countys per-page
fee in her recent request for
emails exchanged by county
council members, saying it
went against a prior county
court order requiring the coun-
ty to provide emails in electron-
ic format.
But Solicitor Ben Jones III
has said that even if the Davis
employee has a criminal back-
ground, the company can be
awarded the contract as long
as that person doesnt deal with
students. The resolution award-
ing the contract explicitly noted
it is conditioned upon the re-
view and approval of a written
contract to ensure strict com-
pliance with all provisions of
the Pennsylvania Public School
code and Pennsylvania Depart-
ment of Education regulations.
The code explicitly requires
districts to conduct background
checks, and bars a district from
hiring people who will interact
with children if those people
have been convicted within ve
years of the background check
on any of about 30 state laws,
or their federal equivalents. The
offenses listed range from ho-
micide to controlled substance
abuse to sexual abuse of chil-
dren.
The code goes beyond those
hired directly by the district,
noting any violation of the same
laws means a district cannot
accept the services of a con-
tractor if the applicant, contrac-
tor or contractors employees
would have direct contact with
children.
The board made no comment
on the allegations regarding a
G. Davis employee, but Palfey
noted after the meeting that
the employee in question is an
ofce worker who would never
have reason to visit the district.
Before the vote, Sally Eman-
uel noted her familys company
is in the district and pays taxes
to it. She questioned where the
buses from a Pike County com-
pany would be parked, where
they would refuel considering
they operate on propane rather
than gasoline or diesel, and
whether they even had enough
of the new buses to handle all
the districts students.
Sometimes a good deal is
not a good deal, she said.
Her husband, Jeff, said he
felt the board was jumping
the gun, and that natural gas
buses, not propane, were the
wave of the future for cleaner
bus transportation. Two years
from now our local vendors will
have natural gas available. He
also noted Emanuel Bus Lines
tries to deal with local compa-
nies and is locally accessible if
problems occur.
But Genevieve Davis, the
owner of G. Davis, assured the
board the company will have
enough buses and will have a
team in the area to deal with
any problems. After the meet-
ing, Palfey said the district in-
stalled a bus pad when it built
the new high school, and there
are enough parking places on it
to accommodate all the required
buses plus a spare, which G.
Davis will provide.
Several drivers spoke of de-
cades with Emanuel Bus lines,
praising the couple for their
commitment to workers and
the community. But in the end,
the economics won out. Board
Member Fred Parry asked Pal-
fey to go over the differences
in the two bids offered by each
company, and Palfey gave the
bottom line: The district would
save $83,000 a year over the
ve-year contract by going with
G. Davis. Parry also noted the
district would be getting new
buses with the latest safety fea-
tures in the deal.
As one supporter put a palm
on Jeff Emanuels back, the
board voted. Maureen Matiska
paused and choked up a mo-
ment as she said it was the
hardest vote of her 20-year ten-
ure, then voted no. Karen Kyle
paused even longer, echoing
Matiskas feelings, and also vot-
ed against Davis. Charles Preece
cast the third no vote.

complete water rescues and
searches, published reports say.
Robshaw said the dive unit
had a roster of about 10 volun-
teers but was not actively re-
sponding to emergencies as it
had in the past.
Much of the equipment they
were using is in a state of disre-
pair, Robshaw said.
Robshaw said he checked
with the county 911 department
and veried other municipal
dive teams are available if cover-
age is needed in a municipality
that doesnt have its own water-
rescue unit.
He did not receive feedback
about the disbanding from dive-
team members but said several
volunteers from the motorcycle
unit expressed disappointment.
Robshaw said the countys
new home-rule government
eliminated the row-ofcer sys-
tem that gave elected sheriffs
latitude to keep such programs.
Robshaw, who is appointed by
the manager and serves as coun-
ty security director, said he and
county Manager Robert Lawton
concluded disbandment was the
best option.
This isnt like the old row
ofces. We have to follow proto-
col, and any benet we got from
these units was minimal com-
pared to the amount of risk to
the county, he said.
ceiving public rent assistance
may lose that benet through
a lottery. Fagula said one deci-
sion made at the local level was
that the elderly and the disabled
would not be put into the lottery.
Its heartbreaking to see the
people that come in here seeking
assistance, Fagula said.
Housing authorities across
the country are absorbing the
budget cuts, and Fagula said no
one is immune.
The county authority has tried
to offset the more than $1.5 mil-
lion in budget scale-back by not
doing roof or window replace-
ments or repairs and opting not
to have a summer worker pro-
gram this year. Landscaping and
other non-essential projects also
are getting scaled back.
Rather than cutting people en
masse to meet the budget, Fagu-
la has been dipping into the au-
thoritys reserves. But what was
a $436,278 reserve fund at the
start of the year is now less than
half of that and at the current
rate will be gone by Labor Day.
Then more drastic decisions will
have to be discussed.
Were going to balance things
through attrition. If attrition
slows later this year, well have
to see what else we can do, said
Jack Ziegler, the director of the
Wilkes-Barre City Housing Au-
thority.
As the county housing author-
ity list has been cut by those
dropping out or getting removed
the money that had been divvied
up among 1,115 recipients of
rental assistance is now shared
by just 1,032 recipients. By the
end of the year that list will be
down to 950 or fewer, Fagula
said.
Also cut is the gure the au-
thority is paying to landlords
for the local fair-market rate for
rental properties. The authority
was paying 110 percent of the
fair-market rate. Starting June
1 that rate will drop to 100 per-
cent, meaning many receiving
assistance will have to pay an ad-
ditional $60 or so out of pocket
monthly.
Fagula said it might not sound
like much, but for the people
who qualify for rental assistance,
that extra $720 a year could be a
months paycheck.
In recent years, Fagula said,
the entire public housing indus-
try has been stuck in a death
spiral, and he doesnt see that
changing as the government re-
mains in a constant state of po-
litical gridlock.
Ive been around long enough
to see the pendulum swing both
ways. The housing problem isnt
going away. If anything, well
have more homeless people,
and hopefully the pendulum will
swing back this way, he said.
In a prepared statement, U.S.
Rep. Matt Cartwright said: Vir-
tually every Housing Authority
is looking at service reductions
to vulnerable people. These
are up to and including pulling
housing-choice vouchers back,
evicting people who are current-
ly stably housed and reducing
maintenance. Often these cuts
are eliminating programs that
are successful at helping people
in the face of growing need. The
effects of the sequestration on
local Housing Authorities is just
another reason why the seques-
ter-level cuts in the continuing
resolution must be repealed.
CLARK VAN ORDEN/THE TIMES LEADER
Housing Authority Director Dave Fagula says the housing problem isnt going away.
including Pennsylvania, it has
been forced to collect the sales
tax more and more.
While iGourmet has nowhere
near the sales volume of Ama-
zon.com, Chesmans 16-year-old
company now boasts sales of
more than $10 million annually,
meaning his business would be
among those forced to collect
the tax if the bill is approved as
written.
The law would apply only to
online businesses that have sales
of at least $1 million in states
where they dont have physical
operations, like a retail store or
a warehouse. Because Amazon.
com has warehouses in multiple
states to cut down on delivery
times, it has been collecting the
sales tax in many of those states,
including Pennsylvania.
But other local online busi-
nesses such as Sugar Plum
Chocolates in Forty Fort, which
have not reached that $1 million
in annual sales plateau, would
continue to be exempt.
Chesman said the ability of
some businesses to continue
not to collect the tax while oth-
ers are forced to is arbitrary and
unfair.
I dont understand why
theres this exception out there.
Either youre taxable or youre
not, Chesman said.
Its a big topic of conversa-
tion in the industry, he said.
The Marketplace Fairness Act
requires each state to establish
a uniform tax base if it wants to
apply its sales tax to out-of-state
retailers, but it leaves it up to
each state to determine which
products/services are taxable.
For example, Pennsylvania law
currently exempts foods that are
not ready to eat from its sales
tax, and that would not change
under this bill.
But if the state a customer
lives in has a sales tax on food
products, then the online busi-
ness with more than $1 million
in sales would be required to col-
lect sales tax on that customers
purchase.
U.S. Sen. Pat Toomey, R-
Zionsville, was among those
voting against the measure and
cited the $1 million exception as
one of the reasons.
I voted against the Market-
place Fairness Act because
Im troubled that many difcult
issues relating to this policy
have not been addressed. I un-
derstand the concerns that
many retailers in my state have
raised about online sales. I have
also heard the concerns of on-
line retailers who would be sub-
ject to the thousands of tax ju-
risdictions across the country,
Toomey said.
Moreover, it is worrisome
that the small-business excep-
tion of $1 million in revenue is
too low and this could have a
negative impact on very small
businesses, Toomey noted.
These issues should be thor-
oughly examined by the Senate
Finance Committee before the
bill is considered by the full Sen-
ate. Unfortunately, this bill was
rushed to the Senate oor with-
out the benet of hearings, vet-
ting or discussion.
The bill drew a supportive
vote from U.S. Sen. Bob Casey,
D-Scranton.
John Rizzo, a spokesman for
Casey, said the senator voted
for the Marketplace Fairness Act
to ensure that small businesses
across Pennsylvania have a level
playing eld. The bill will en-
sure that brick-and-mortar and
online retailers play by the same
set of rules.
It also would generate revenue
for cash-strapped state budgets.
The year 2012 saw $225.5
billion in online sales, accord-
ing to the U.S. Department of
Commerce. Estimates from the
National Conference of State
Legislators are that states lost
out on a combined $23 billion
in uncollected sales-tax revenue
last year.

Reid McNeill wasnt a familiar
face with the Wilkes-Barre/Scran-
ton Penguins this season. He
spent a few weeks with the team
in training camp, came back for a
game in February and two more
at the end of the season.
But all of a sudden after
spending the majority of his rst
pro season
with Wheel-
ing in the East
Coast Hockey
League
McNeill has
become a fa-
miliar face in
the Penguins
playoff run.
Head coach
John Hynes
gave the
21- year- ol d
rookie defen-
seman regular
ice time in all three games of the
Binghamton series. McNeill re-
sponded with poise playing a
physical, shutdown role with few
mistakes.
He played like a familiar face,
and it was actually the time that
McNeill spent away from the
team that helped him the most.
Hynes said McNeill logged a
ton of minutes while spending
the season in Wheeling, and that
gave him condence when he
Back in the 1970s, Ernie Yates didnt
even think about going to Berwick to
coach wrestling. It took one of his icons,
Russ Hauck, to twist Yates armafter they
met at a camp in the western part of the
state.
Coach Hauck told me that theres a
junior high coaching job at Berwick and
an elementary school teaching job avail-
able, Yates said. And he made me go to
an interview and my whole life changed
because of it.
Shortly after he became the fth coach
in school history and the rest was history.
Last month Yates, originally from the
western part of the state, ofcially called
it quits after more than a quarter century
as Berwicks head coach. He retired as
one of the winningest coaches in Wyo-
ming Valley Conference history with 325,
just two behind long-time Tunkhannock
coach Frank Wadas. The conferences all-
time wins leader for a coach is Coughlins
Dana Balum, who racked up 461 in 35
years. Yates could also be headed to the
Hall of Fame soon as Wadas and Balum
are both in the states PWCA Hall.
The milestones are great and if you
coach long enough I guess you get to
300 wins, said Yates, who retired from
teaching at the school two years ago and
has coached more than 500 dual meets.
But I like to think I made a difference in
kids lives. We not only made them better
wrestlers, we made them better people
too.
While his tenure wont ofcially end
until the middle of this month, Yates
brilliant career ended in March after the
Class 3ANortheast Regional Tournament
when he realized he would be shutout of
a PIAA championship yet again.
If youve ever seen a Berwick wrestling
match or meet in the last 25 years you
know how animated and emotional Yates
gets during the action. But he said there
was no emotions after making the call.
It was a hard decision for me to make.
The last three years Ive been struggling
to make it, he said. When the postsea-
son ended I was driving and decided it
was time. I came home told Ellen (his

Newman had to open his check-
book the last time he spoke out at
Talladega.
Fed up about the style of rac-
ing, he said in 2010 fans shouldnt
even bother to going to the track.
He was punished with a secret
ne that didnt come to light for
months, and the true amount has
never been revealed by NASCAR
or Newman.
But its precedent that could
again cost him following his
strong rebuke of NASCAR on live
television Sunday.
Newman, no stranger to har-
rowing accidents at restrictor-
plate tracks, had just witnessed
Kurt Buschs car barrel-roll on
top of his at the end of a long
and dreary day. The closing laps
of a Talladega race are frantic by
nature, and on Sunday it was wet
and cold and getting darker by
the second when the 12-car ac-
cident erupted on the backstretch
with six laps remaining.

KINGSTON There were
moments when it was easy to
forget just how inexperienced
Coughlin actually is a pro-
gram as new to girls lacrosse as
most of northeastern Pennsylva-
nia.
But for the most part, the
much more experienced Wyo-
ming Seminary teamshowcased
the gap between it and the rest
of conference. The Blue Knights
locked up the rst-ever Wyo-
ming Valley Conference girls
lacrosse cham-
pionship with
an 18-5 victory
Monday over
Coughlin.
They are a
powerhouse in
girls lacrosse, Coughlin coach
Colleen Wood said. I mean,
they have a feeder system. Half
of our team just started playing
organized lacrosse this year.
Coughlin had Seminary on
the ropes in the rst three min-
utes of the game. After Lexi
Quick netted the games rst
goal, the Crusaders Hailee Du-
mont evened the score 28 sec-
onds later to tie the game 1-1.
The game remained tied
for nearly two minutes before
Madison Dowd ignited the
Blue Knights scoring barrage
at 22:37. From there, Wyoming
Seminary resembled the team
that has dominated local com-
petition for the past three years,
scoring 10 straight goals in an
8:30 span.

MOOSIC Theres no doubt
that Scranton/Wilkes-Barre has
been playing its best baseball of
the season recently. Thats evi-
dent by the team entering Mon-
days game at PNC Field on an
eight-game winning streak.
But the Rail-
Riders hot
streak occurred
on the road,
where they have
excelled all sea-
son. So when
they returned
to Moosic for
a long homes-
tand on Mon-
day night, the
home troubles
returned as
well. They were
held to just four
hits as the win-
ning streak was
halted after a
5-0 loss to India-
napolis, the International League
leader in wins with 22.
SWB entered the game with 12
of its 17 wins this season on the
road. And while the teams bat-
ting average on the road is .283,
that stat hovered under .230 after
Mondays loss.
Were trying to feel our way
through here a little bit at home,
SWB catcher Bobby Wilson said.
On the road were playing free
and easy. Weve also run into
some pretty tough teams at home
so far. Well be ne.
Chien-Ming Wang, who had
been throwing exceptional for
the RailRiders in three previous
starts, also seemed to be a recipi-
ent of a bad homecoming.
After allowing just two ineld
singles in the rst three innings,
Wang started to struggle in the
next two frames as he tried to
work more pitches into his rep-
ertoire. He got the rst two bat-
ters of the fourth out before Matt
Hagues single to center started a
rally.
Jared Goedert followed with
another single, and Ivan DeJesus
Jr. ripped a double down the rst
base line scoring the baserunners
for a 2-0 lead. Five batters reached

McNeill
TUESDAY, MAY 7, 2013 PAgE 3B TIMES LEADER www.timesleader.com S P O R T S
joined the Penguins for the
postseason.
Wheeling was a real positive
experience for Reid and hes a
ne example of a guy that took
the situation for what it was,
worked hard, was well-coached
there and stayed ready to come
up, Hynes said. The Reid
McNeill we got later in the sea-
son was one that was prepared
and battle-tested with playing
against older guys.
McNeill was drafted by Pitts-
burgh in the sixth round of the
2010 NHL draft. Before this
season, he spent the last three
years in juniors establishing
himself as a physical defense-
man who was solid in his own
zone.
The same thing could be said
of McNeill now after his rst
three playoff games. While hes
shown plenty of poise in each,
McNeill admits he needed to
make a quick adjustment at
rst.
I felt like my rst period in
the rst game against Bing-
hamton was a little overwhelm-
ing, he said. I kind of psyched
myself up too much. But the
players just told me to play my
game and keep it simple, and
Ive been feeling more comfort-
able ever since.
Another aspect thats helped
is the practice time that Mc-
Neill has logged with the
Penguins this season. He was
already familiar with the sys-
tem after spending the season
in Wheeling, and the practices
helped him adjust to new team-
mates at a new level.
The coaches and the team
here have been showing great
condence in me. It really
makes it easier to go out there
knowing your team is con-
dent in you, McNeill said.
And it also helps to have a bit
of patience. The NHL lockout
and glut of defensemen in the
organization forced McNeill
down to Wheeling early in the
year, and he said it wouldve
been easy to view the situation
negatively.
Instead, McNeill took advan-
tage of the plentiful ice time in
Wheeling and made the most
of it.
I played a ton and learned
a lot about myself as a player,
McNeill said. Its been a long
year, but Ive learned a ton.
notes
The Penguins held off-ice
workouts at Coal Street on
Monday and will resume on-ice
practice today. With more than
a week between games, Hynes
said its important to keep his
players fresh during the long
layoff. That means avoiding
burning them out with too
much time on the ice, he said.
Games drive the players at
this point in the year, and when
you get lulls in the schedule
like we have now, you want to
make sure theyre not dread-
ing coming to the rink, Hynes
said. You can overload them.
The most important thing is
to manage their energy and
manage their mind so theyre
always energized.
Needless to say, the players
enjoy the time off, but wouldnt
mind seeing some game action
soon.
Its denitely the longest
layoff of my pro career, winger
Riley Holzapfel said. It was
nice to sweep the rst series
and nish early, but at the same
time we havent played a game
in a week.

used one-time shots off passes
from behind the net. Maegan
Coulter icked an Amanda
Schwartz pass to make it 3-1
at 22:04, and Becca Schulman
capped the scoring run off a
Dowd feed.
Most of our plays come from
behind the net, Seminary for-
ward Emily Granger said. We
try to keep moving and look for
cutters and lanes. Thats what
we were able to accomplish
pretty well today.
Granger led the Blue Knights
with ve points off two goals
and three assists. Quick topped
all scorers with ve goals, and
Kristen Mericle also totaled
ve points and ve draw con-
trols. Emily Gabriel provided a
game-high eight ground balls.
Coughlin was carried by
two-goal efforts from Dumont
and Brigid Wood. Wood caused
three turnovers and picked up
three ground balls.
Following the 10-goal run,
the Crusaders kept the Blue
Knights in sight, going goal-for-
goal for the remainder of the
rst half. Coughlin trailed 13-9
in draw controls and 24-18 in
ground balls.
In contrast to the Blue
Knights, who have long held a
girls lacrosse program, the Cru-
saders are relatively new to the
sport. Despite having only two
girls both freshmen with
previous lacrosse experience
before last years inaugural sea-
son, Coughlin sits third in the
conference with a 6-4 record.
Our team, especially the
new players, seem to be getting
better with each game, coach
Wood said. I mean, against
this team, thats the sort of
thing you hope for.
The difference in the game
was Seminarys successful
clear attempts and on-point
shooting. Passing, as Granger
noted, has been a focus of the
Blue Knights entering postsea-
son play.
Weve been working on
the passing a lot, she said.
The past couple of practices
we put an offensive formation
that makes it easier for the de-
fense to clear the ball. So we
can quickly get it, either pass
it down the eld and release a
shot or settle it and focus on
one of our plays.

Erin Belles has wrapped up her career
with the Cornell University softball team.
She had a standout four years but it could
have been better had the injury bug not hit,
according to coach Dick Blood.
Erins career was interrupted by a se-
rious hand injury during her sophomore
year, he said. At the time she was hitting
.318 with six homers. And, she rebounded
from a knee sprain earlier this year.
Despite it all, Belles (Dallas) nished
with a career batting average of .306 (89-
for-290) with 11 doubles, 17 home runs, 36
runs scored and 44 RBI. She also nished
in the top 10 at Cornell in career slugging
percentage and on-base percentage.
This season, she hit .374 (43-for-115)
with six doubles, seven home runs, 14 runs
scored and 19 RBI for the Big Red, which
nished 21-29 (8-12 in Ivy League play).
The average was fourth best in the league.
Erin was a wonderful teammate and I
can give no greater compliment than that,
Blood said. She was loved and respected
by the team. She worked hard to bounce
back from her injuries and we appreciate
all that shes done for our program.
Belles also was outstanding in the class
room. Shes been named CoSIDA Aca-
demic All-District I and is among three Ivy
League players advancing onto the ballot
for national Academic All-Academic hon-
ors. She carries a 3.46 grade point average
in economics.
HONORS FOR MATTHEWS Fresh-
man Brandon Matthews (Pittston Area)
was named Temple Owls Athlete of the
Month for April for his play with the mens
golf team.
Matthews earned Atlantic-10 Rookie of
the Year honors and was selected to the
All-Conference rst team after he nished
second in the league tourney with a three-
round total of 209 (71-68-70) and missed
medalist honors by just two shots. The
Owls nished third.
During the month of April, he averaged
71.92 over 13 rounds (ve tournaments)
and earned A-10 Rookie of the Week hon-
ors four times. He also earned that honor
four times during the fall season. He n-
ished in the top seven in all ve tourna-
ments and shared medalist honors with a
teammate in the Princeton Invitational. He
nished with seven rounds under 70 dur-
ing both the fall and spring seasons with a
college career best six-under-par 64 at The
McLaughlin last fall in Farmingdale, N.Y.
It was the lowest round by an Owl golfer
since 1973.
KARNOPP EYES BIG FINISH Ryan
Karnopp (Tunkhannock) has had a strong
rst season competing in the pole vault for
the Moravian mens track team, but coach
Jesse Baumann is hoping for an even big-
ger effort from his freshman.
Karnopp tied for rst place in the recent
Landmark Conference Championship, but
was awarded second place because it took
him longer to clear 14-feet, 6 inches than
junior teammate David Cariello.
Ryan had a slower start to the season
than we anticipated although were not
quite sure why, Baumann said. Its hard
to quantify, but sometimes the adjustment
to college takes a year to adapt to.
But the coaches changed a few things
and that has been paying off and Karnopp
is reaching new heights.
Ryan is starting to jump much better,
Baumann said. Hes been showing signs in
practice that he could potentially get up to
15-6 this season which would put him on
the cusp of qualifying for the NCAAs.
The Greyhounds have three more meets
before the NCAA Championship (May 23-
25) in LaCrosse, Wis.
Ryan has good speed and is a good
vaulter, Baumann said. He works as hard
as anyone in the gym so we do expect him
to be qualifying for the NCAAs before he
graduates.
HAYWARD MAKES THE GRADE
Kendra Hayward (Coughlin) was a
walk-on with the Mount St. Marys softball
team, but this season as a sophomore she
saw action in 35 games and hit .226 (12-for-
53) with 13 runs. She didnt make an error,
handling 15 chances.
Kendra is the best natural athlete on the
team, coach Anna Nagro said. She came
in as a walk-on, but quickly found herself
earning playing time in the outeld. She
has the ability to make hard plays look easy
because of her high level of athleticism and
her speed.
Nagro said that Hayward is extremely
coachable. That included switching her
from a right-handed hitter to a lefty.
Kendra quickly got comfortable at the
plate, the coach said. Her approach to
the game excites me for the future. I am
very eager for Kendra next year. If she stays
healthy and is ready to work hard, good
things will happen for her. I can see her
competing for a starting spot in the out-
eld next year.
BRECHER WORKING HARD Em-
ily Brecher of Mountain Top (Wyoming
Seminary) is a member of the Worcester
Poly womens crew team. Competing with
the Novice Four, she helped her boat nish
fth in the recent New England Champion-
ships.
Emily brings a tremendous work ethic
that assures she will continue to play a
competitive role on our team, coach Jason
Steele said. As a novice, she has worked
as hard as many of our experienced rowers
and has proven herself an athletic match
for many athletes on our team.
The coach feels that with more time,
experience and continued development of
technique and power that Brecher will play
a signicant role with the program, which
is one of the top Division III units in the
country.
Success takes time, but based on what I
have seen so far in her willingness to train
at a high level it is probable that she will
work her way onto our top 16 rowers in the
upcoming years.
STASKIEL COMING THROUGH
The PSU-Berks softball team is going to
the NCAA Division III Championships for
the rst time and freshman Abby Staskiel
has been a big part of the late-season ef-
forts of the Nittany Lions.
Staskiel (Holy Redeemer) had a two-run
double and a single, good for three RBI in
an 8-5 victory over Keuka that clinched
the teams rst-ever Northeastern Athletic
Conference title and a trip to the NCAAs.
The team (36-3) will face Lebanon Valley
(32-5-1) in the rst round of the tourna-
ment Thursday in Ithaca, N.Y.
Abby has a great attitude and is very
coachable and this has been directly attrib-
utable to her recent success, coach Francis
Keating said. She was a major contributor
down the stretch.
In her last nine games, Staskiel has 15
hits in 29 at-bats with ve runs scored and
10 RBI. Shes also picked up two victories
in the circle, one in relief and one as a start-
er. In 24 games, she is hitting .371 (23-for-
62) with six doubles, 13 runs and 20 RBI.
DUORIDES FORCAZENOVIA Soph-
omore Chelsea DeMeglio (Crestwood)
and Karl Carichner (Tunkhannock) are
key members of the Cazenovia equestrian
team.
DeMeglio earned ribbons at the Cazeno-
via show and at Delaware Valley and Penn
State University, competing in Intercolle-
giate Dressage.
Chelsea has been named a co-captain
for next years team and she will take an
active management and leadership role for
the team, coach Ann Fowler said.
Carichner competed in Beginner Horse-
manship and had a big effort in a show
hosted by the Oswego Equestrian Team in
Pittsford, N.Y. He nished rst, second and
fth in three showings. Later in the season,
he placed rst in Intermediate Horseman-
ship I and went on to qualify for regionals
and nationals.
We are excited about the future of Chel-
sea and Karl as they progress even further
in their riding abilities, coach Julie Corey
said. They have both developed their rid-
ing skills and have come a long way this
year.
yates
on campus
BILL ARSENAULT
wife) I think Imgoing to do it.
And after I turned in my resig-
nation letter I felt a good sense
of relief. As emotional as I am
Ive been very positive about
it.
It certainly could have been
a very hard choice for Yates,
who coached an astonishing
43 District 2 champions, seven
regional champions, 14 state
qualiers and 10 medalists
including back-to-back appear-
ances in the state nal in 2007
and 2008 with Aaron Karns and
Nick Venditti, respectively. The
last few years, the Dawgs had
down seasons for the standard
Yates set prior. But the pro-
gram was showing many signs
of promise for future years
picking up big wins as a team
and individually at seasons
end by a team lled with un-
derclassmen.
Now, a new coach will have
the opportunity to reek the
benets of Yates work. Many
former coaches have decided
to stick around with the pro-
gram they formerly led. But
Yates said hes going to enjoy
his time.
One of the things he and his
wife, Ellen are looking forward
to is getting to spend more time
with their four grandchildren.
Im going to be a grandfa-
ther and wrestling enthusiast
and Im lucky to have a wife
who likes to go to wrestling
matches, said Yates, who
spent time as a referee work-
ing 200 matches as an ofcial
between stints as assistant and
head coach at Berwick. When
the season starts I will have a
little thing, but I have met so
many great people in the con-
ference that you can compete
against them and be great
friends with them after. And
thats very rewarding.
There were many memo-
rable moments in Yates ca-
reer. Jeremy Grifth became
the rst state medalist for the
program early in the century.
Karns became the rst state
nalist. The team won back-
to-back District 2 Class 2A Du-
als championships and then in
2008 fell just shy of being the
rst District 2 team to nish in
the top eight at the PIAA Team
Championships.
But one moment that really
stands out for him was getting
the opportunity to coach his
son, Brent, who became the
schools rst 100-match win-
ner. Its something not many
mentors have had the chance
to accomplish.
That was very rewarding.
Its hard coaching your son,
Yates said. I always looked at
is as he will wrestle for me for
four years but will be my son
forever.
And Yates legacy will also
live on forever.
Berwick High School wrestling coach Ernie Yates is retiring
from coaching this year after coaching wrestling at Berwick
for 25 years.
Belles battles through injuries for cornell
PHOTO PROVIDED
Dallas graduate Erin Belles batted .374
for Cornell this season as a senior.
athlete of the Week
andrew Lawrence
School: Berwick High School
Grade: Senior
Sport: Baseball
Position: Pitcher
All in the Family: Andrew, 17, is the son of Gene
and Kimberly Lawrence of Berwick. His older sister
Clarissa was a swimmer at Berwick and now at-
tends Kings College.
Stats: Lawrence earned a save and a victory -
both on the same day - as Berwick completed a
suspended game Friday and then won the regu-
larly scheduled game in ve innings, both against
Pittston Area. He also worked 3 2/3 innings of
one-run ball in relief against Crestwood during
a game the Bulldogs rallied to win earlier in the
week. His four innings of no-hit ball in the second
game against Pittston Area gave Lawrence his
rst mound victory of the season. For the week,
he pitched 10 2/3 innings, allowed just one run on
eight hits and struck out eight batters.
A Cy of relief: The seldom-used Lawrence sudden-
ly turned into a Berwick workhorse last week, and
the 15-2 Bulldogs are forever grateful. In just his
sixth mound appearance of the season and rst as
a starter, Lawrence threw the rst four innings of a
combined ve-inning no-hitter for his rst victory
of the season in Fridays regular game before being
removed for the last inning because of concerns
about his pitch count for the week. That came right
after Lawrence pitched one-hit ball over the nal
three innings in the completion Fridays earlier
game against Pittston Area to earn the save. And
as the week began, Lawrence worked 3 2/3 sterling
innings of one-run ball in relief to keep Berwick in
a game it rallied to win in extra innings Tuesday
against Crestwood.
Coachs corner: You dont read much about him,
really, but were 15-2 right now and hes a big part
of that, Berwick coach Brian Pinterich said. We
played eight innings Tuesday, 11 innings Wednesday
and we had two pitchers injured. He really stepped
up and answered the call for us. Hes always around
the strike zone, hes sneaky-quick, hes a guy who
really doesnt beat himself. Weve brought him in
in a few pressure situations - second and third, no
outs, he doesnt give up a run. Hes done a great
job. I think hes give up like two runs all year. Were
very condent in what we have in him.
Did you know? Growing up in a family of service-
men has had a profound inuence on Lawrence.
Following his graduation from Berwick, hell be
leaving for boot camp for the U.S. Marine Corps,
where two of his uncles served. Its something Ive
always wanted to do, Lawrence said.
From his angle: Actually, I havent really pitched
much this year, Lawrence said. We have a lot of
great pitchers on my team, (but) everyone gets
their chance. This was actually the rst chance I
got to prove myself. I was actually chosen (Friday)
to just pitch the last three innings of the (rst)
game. But I didnt throw many pitches and I was
throwing well, so they let me go out for the next
game. Its been awhile since I pitched two games
like that. I dont know who really does get a chance
to pitch that much. We dont have a half-game to
play every day.
Week in review: Berwick pitcher Margaret Bridge
helped bridge the gap for the Bulldogs, picking up
three wins from the circle against Nanticoke, Lake-
Lehman and Dallas. She allowed just two earned
runs in 21 innings during those games, shutting out
Lehman and nishing with a combined 21 strike-
outs. Bridge also had a two-run double against
Nanticoke Area as her batting average is .531. It
was another tremendous week for Hazleton Area
softball star Maria Trivelpiece, who had three hits
in all three of her teams victories and also drove
home two runs and scored the winner in a tight
game with Tunkhannock. Want more clutch hitting
on the softball eld? Just call Coughlins Marissa
Ross, who belted a two-run, game-winning double
in the bottom of the seventh inning to beat Lake-
Lehman, and also had four hits including a double
in a victory over Pittston Area and two more hits
in a loss to Hazleton Area. Wyoming Areas Alex
Holtz had three hits at the plate in two victories,
and picked up the win in the circle during both.
And Hazleton Areas Becky Demko struck out a
combined 14 batters while also earning two pitch-
ing victories last week. Hazleton Areas Tony
Hernandez missed a ve-inning perfect game by
one pitch - a close one that was called a ball on a
3-2 count - but settled for a shortened no-hitter
on the baseball mound against Lake-Lehman.
Hernandez struck out 10 in the gem. Wyoming
Areas Jake Granteed continued his run as the
WVCs winningest pitcher, running his victory total
to ve on the season with two complete-game
wins. He allowed just two earned runs and struck
out nine in 14 innings. The bat of Wyoming Valley
Wests Evan McCue is heating up, just in time to
keep the Spartans hunting for a rst-round playoff
bye. McCue went 7-for-10 with two doubles and four
RBI in t hree games, a big boost with team slugger
Joe Pechulis shelved with an injury. Hazleton
Areas Brett Barron made 32 assists to spark a
victory over Hanover Area on the volleyball court,
while Coughlins Danny Sales served 19 points
and made 33 assists against Wyoming Valley West.
Crestwoods Nick Banos was everywhere against
Lake-Lehman, making 22 kills, 16 assists and serv-
ing 12 points. And Nanticokes Ed Lukowski had 25
assists against Wyoming Valley West. Hanover
Areas Olivia Jendrzejewski jumped her way to a
personal sweep in girls track, capturing the long,
triple and high jumps and running on the win-
ning 400 relay team. And Lake-Lehmans Cayle
Spencer continued her dominance in eld events,
winning the javelin, shotput and discus throws.
On the boys track, Isiah Peoples of Wyoming
Area won the 100 and 200 dashes on the same
day he ran on two winning relay teams. And in the
eld, Northwests Austin Mazonkey continued his
mastery in the eld, winning the discus, javelin and
shotput on the same day. It was the same old
story for Crestwood scorer Jay Popson, who red
home eight goals ina boys lacrosse victory over
Lake-Lehman. His teammate Brian Collins made
seven assists and two goals in that same game.
Lake-Lehmans Alyssa Adams hit for a double hat
trick in a girls lacrosse game against Crestwood,
scoring six goals. Her teammate Mallory Wilson
added ve goals and an assist.
Paul Sokoloski
Berwick High School pitcher Andrew Lawrence picked up a victory and a save on the same day
last week for the Bulldogs.

MIAMI Nate Robinson
scored 27 points, Jimmy But-
ler added 21 points and 14 re-
bounds while playing every sec-
ond for the third straight game,
and the Chicago Bulls stunned
the Miami Heat 93-86 on Mon-
day night to take Game 1 of
their Eastern Conference semi-
nal series.
Trailing 86-83 with 2 minutes
left, the Bulls scored the nal 10
points of the game to beat the
Heat once again.
JoakimNoah added 13 points,
Taj Gibson had 12 and Marco
Belinelli added 10 for Chicago,
which snapped a 27-game Mi-
ami winning streak during the
regular season, and handed the
Heat their rst loss in their last
13 games in this one.
LeBron James scored 24
points for Miami, which got 14
from Dwyane Wade.
Game 2 is Wednesday night in
Miami.
The Bulls were without Der-
rick Rose, as theyve been all
season. Kirk Hinrich was out
again with a calf injury. Luol
Deng isnt even expected to
rejoin the team until Tuesday,
after dealing with an illness ap-
parently so severe that a spinal
tap and other tests since
were needed to rule out things
like meningitis.
And the group that was left
gave the reigning NBA cham-
pions more than they could
handle.
A pair of three-point plays
by James one of them com-
ing when he just broke through
a tackle attempt by Butler and
muscled the ball to the rim
anyway gave Miami a 76-69
lead midway through the fourth
quarter, the biggest decit Chi-
cago faced all night.

Bulls steal Game 1, top Heat 93-86
By TIMREYNOLDS
AP Basketball Writer
The Times Leader staff
PSUs game with Central Florida will be primetime start
Rangers slip past Caps, get back into series
NEW YORK Derek Stepan
and Arron Asham both scored
tiebreaking goals in the third pe-
riod for the New York Rangers
in a 4-3 victory over the Wash-
ington Capitals in Game 3 on
Monday night.
The Rangers nally found
their offense and got back into
their rst-round playoff series.
New York still trails 2-1 in the
Eastern Conference series, with
Game 4 Wednesday night.
Stepan gave the Rangers the
lead for good with 6:25 remain-
ing when he deftly tipped in a
pass in front from Rick Nash.
Asham had put New York in
front 3-2 at 2:53, but Jay Beagle
got the Capitals even again 4:26
later.
Derick Brassard had a goal
and two assists for the Rangers,
who managed only one goal in
the rst two losses in Washing-
ton and hadnt scored since the
rst period of Game 1 -- a score-
less stretch of 124 minutes, 6
seconds. That streak was bro-
ken by Brian Boyles rst-period
goal that made it 1-1.
Until then, New York had
been stymied by the Capitals
and goalie Braden Holtby, who
had yielded just one goal in two
games.
After Nicklas Backstrom gave
the Capitals a 1-0 lead 4:06 in,
Boyle tied it. Brassard put the
Rangers in front in the second
period with the teams rst
power-play goal in the series,
and Asham gave New York its
3-2 lead.
Henrik Lundqvist was sharp
in making 28 saves. Holtby
countered with a 26-save effort.
Bruins 5, Maple Leafs 2
TORONTOBoston spoiled
the return of playoff hockey
to Toronto, scoring two quick
goals in the second period in a
victory over the Maple Leafs.
Adam McQuaid, Rich Pe-
verley, Nathan Horton, Daniel
Paille and David Krejci, with
an empty-net goal with 1:17 re-
maining, scored for Boston
The win came before 19,746
fans inside the Air Canada Cen-
tre. Outside, a blue-and-white
throng watched on a big screen
in Maple Leaf Square as playoff
hockey returned to Toronto for
the rst time since 2004.
After being beaten 4-2 in
Boston on Saturday night, the
Bruins upped their game. The
Leafs, meanwhile, made mis-
takes and were punished, al-
though they tried to close the
gap with a busy third period in
which they outshot the visitors
18-6. The Leafs nished with a
47-38 edge in shots.
Game 4 is Wednesday in To-
ronto, with Boston leading 2-1
in the best-of-seven series.
The dominant line of Milan
Lucic, Krejci and Horton n-
ished with two goals and six
assists. They have combined for
17 points through the rst three
postseason games, with ve
goals and 12 assists.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.
J.P. Arencibia hit a two-out, two-
run homer in the ninth inning
off Fernando Rodney and the
Toronto Blue Jays completed
their comeback from a seven-
run decit, beating the Tampa
Bay Rays 8-7 on Monday night.
Evan Longoria hit his third ca-
reer grand slam, helping Tampa
Bay build a 7-0 lead that Jeremy
Hellickson and four Rays re-
lievers failed to protect before
a season-low crowd of 9,952 at
Tropicana Field.
Colby Rasmus and Mark DeR-
osa also hit two-run homers for
Toronto.
Indians 7, Athletics 3
CLEVELAND Asdrubal
Cabrera homered twice and
Mark Reynolds hit one to the
deepest reaches of Progressive
Field, leading the Cleveland In-
dians to a win over the Oakland
Athletics.
Jason Kipnis and Cabrera hit
consecutive homers in the rst
inning off Jarrod Parker (1-5).
In the fth, Cabrera homered
again and Reynolds launched
a 460-foot shot his 10th this
season that nearly cleared
the left-eld bleachers.
The four homers backed Ub-
aldo Jimenez (2-2), who had his
second straight solid outing.
Jimenez struck out a season-
high eight in 5 2-3 innings as
Cleveland won for the seventh
time in eight games.
White Sox 2, Royals 1
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Jor-
dan Danks atoned for a baserun-
ning blunder in the ninth inning
by hitting a solo home run in
the 11th that lifted the Chicago
White Sox over the Kansas City
Royals.
Danks connected with two
outs off Kelvin Herrera (2-3) for
his rst homer of the season.
The White Sox avoided a three-
game sweep.
Down 1-0, the White Sox
loaded the bases with no outs
in the ninth. After Paul Konerko
grounded into a home-to-rst
double play, Danks entered as a
pinch-runner at second base for
Adam Dunn.

Braves 7, Reds 4
CINCINNATI Andrelton
Simmons homered twice and
drove in a career-high four runs,
leading the Atlanta Braves to a
victory that ended the Cincinna-
ti Reds winning streak at three
games.
The Braves won at a place
where theyve had little success
lately. They were 0-4 at Great
American Ball Park last season
and14-25 overall since it opened.
Paul Maholm (4-3) held
down an offense thats been
all-or-nothing. The left-hander
allowed four hits and two runs
in 5 2-3 innings. Craig Kimbrel
gave up a pair of hits in the ninth
while getting his 10th save.
base with two outs in the in-
ning before Wang nally retired
the side, allowing three runs.
Some of Wangs pitches ap-
peared to be missing high as
Indians hitters started to get
going. Indianapolis started off
the next frame the same way.
Alex Presley ripped a singled to
right. Then after Josh Harrison
lined out to rst, Felix Pie wal-
loped a two-run home run to left
center for a 5-0 lead.
Wang (2-2) said that after
his last outing pitching coach
Scott Aldred told him to use the
curveball and changeup more
often.
It wasnt bad, he said. I was
just getting (the sinker) a little
bit high. (The home run) was a
sinker that was at and he hit
it.
I thought he threw the ball
good overall, Wilson added.
We kind of got away from what
hes been doing previously and
threwa lot more off-speed pitch-
es today. His stuff was ne. His
velocity was ne. They just put
together a two-run homer and
put together a couple singles
there. Its ne.
Those ve runs were more
than enough for Indianapo-
lis starter Andy Oliver. The
25-year-old lefty had a shaky
start to the outing, having to
throw 27 pitches in the rst in-
ning.
But he settled down consid-
erably after that as his fastball
reached as high as 94 miles per
hour later in the game. After
walking two in the rst, he only
allowed two the rest of the way
and two of his ve strikeouts
came in the sixth, his last in-
ning.
Oliver (2-1) only gave up two
hits, a double to David Adams
in the third and a single by Wil-
son in the fth.

T 3:00. A 4,089
3,400-pound car had just land-
ed on top of their hood.
But he was also fed up.
So he stepped up to the live
television camera and let it all
out.
They can build safer race
cars, they can build safer walls.
But they cant get their heads
out of their (expletive) far
enough to keep them on the
race track, and thats pretty dis-
appointing, Newman said. I
wanted to make sure I get that
point across. Yall can gure
out who they is.
He continued on to criticize
NASCAR for restarting the race
with 10 laps remaining despite
the looming darkness. Rain had
forced a three hour, 36 minute
delay midway through the race
and Talladega doesnt have
lights.
Thats no way to end a race.
Thats just poor judgment in
restarting the race, poor judg-
ment, Newman said. I mean,
you got what you wanted, but
poor judgment and running
in the dark and running in the
rain. Thats it, thank you.
Logic would say those com-
ments are going to cost New-
man some cold, hard cash this
week.
Only logic doesnt apply any-
more and NASCARs decisions
seem to be changing on a daily
basis.
Remember, it was just two
months ago that Denny Ham-
lin was slapped with a $25,000
ne for the fairly mild assess-
ment that NASCARs newcar at
Phoenix did not race as good
as our generation ve cars. This
is more like what the genera-
tion ve was at the beginning.
Roughly six weeks later, de-
fending champion Brad Kesel-
owski escaped punishment for
essentially accusing NASCAR
of unfairly targeting his team
after inspectors conscated
parts from both Penske Racing
cars before the Texas race.
NASCAR also let Keselows-
ki slide in February when he
made wide-ranging and critical
comments about the direction
of the sport.
He was, however, summoned
to a meeting at NASCAR
headquarters with chairman
Brian France and International
Speedway Corp. chairwoman
Lesa France Kennedy.

Couples
leads ve
into hall
By DOUG FERGUSON
AP Golf Writer
ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla.
About the only thing Fred
Couples and Colin Montgom-
erie had in common was a golf
swing they could trust for a
lifetime.
Couples became the rst
American to reach No. 1 in the
world and won the Masters by
a blade of grass that kept his
ball from trickling into Raes
Creek. Montgomerie found
fame on the European Tour,
where he won the Order of
Merit a record seven times in
a row, though he never won a
major, a glaring hole in his cre-
dentials.
Couples sauntered down the
fairways, the essence of cool.
Montgomerie walked with his
head down, never looking like
was having much fun.
They shared the stage Mon-
day night when both were
inducted into the World Golf
Hall of Fame, along with three
others in the Class of 2013.
The others were former U.S.
Open champion and broad-
caster Ken Venturi, former
European Tour executive di-
rector Ken Schoeld and two-
time British Open champion
and architect Willie Park Jr.
I never thought about the
Hall of Fame as a kid, Cou-
ples said. I never made a putt
at the golf course it was al-
ways to win the tournament
that was on TV that week.

TRENTON, N.J. Men who are
bashful about needing help in the bed-
room no longer have to go to the drug-
store to buy that little blue pill.
In a rst for the drug industry, Pzer
Inc. told The Associated Press that the
drugmaker will begin selling its popu-
lar erectile dysfunction pill Viagra di-
rectly to patients on its website.
Men still will need a prescription to
buy the blue, diamond-shaped pill on
viagra.com, but they no longer have to
face a pharmacist to get it lled. And
for those who are bothered by Viagras
steep $25-a-pill price, Pzer is offering
three free pills with the rst order and
30 percent off the second one.
Pzers bold move blows up the
drug industrys distribution model.
Drugmakers dont sell medicines di-
rectly to patients. Instead, they sell in
bulk to wholesalers, who then distrib-
ute the drugs to pharmacies, hospitals
and doctors ofces.
But the worlds second-largest drug-
maker is trying a new strategy to tack-
le a problem that plagues the indus-
try. Unscrupulous online pharmacies
increasingly offer patients counterfeit
versions of Viagra and other brand-
name drugs for up to 95 percent off
with no prescription needed. Patients
dont realize the drugs are fake or that
legitimate pharmacies require a pre-
scription.
Other major drugmakers likely will
watch Pzers move closely. If it works,
drugmakers could begin selling other
medicines that are rampantly coun-
terfeited and sold online, particularly
treatments for non-urgent conditions
seen as embarrassing. Think: diet
drugs, medicines for baldness and
birth control pills.
If it works, everybody will hop
on the train, says Les Funtleyder, a
health care strategist at private equity
fund Poliwogg who believes Pzers
site will attract fence-sitters who are
nervous about buying online.
The online Viagra sales are Pzers
latest effort to combat a problem that
has grown with the popularity of the
Internet.
In recent years, Americans have be-
come more comfortable with online
shopping, with many even buying pre-
scription drugs online. Thats particu-
larly true for those who dont have in-
surance, are bargain hunters or want to
keep their medicine purchases private.
Few realize that the vast majority
of online pharmacies dont follow the
rules.
The Internet is lled with illegiti-
mate websites that lure customers with
spam emails and professional-looking
websites that run 24-hour call centers.

IN BRIEF
Verizonboosts speeds inNEPA
Verizon Wireless recently activated
new 4G LTE coverage in several coun-
ties throughout Northeastern Pennsyl-
vania, including Monroe, Lackawanna,
Luzerne, Wyoming and Wayne, further
expanding the companys high-speed
wireless data network coverage.
The expansion provides increased
wireless voice and 4G LTE data cover-
age in several communities including
White Haven, Effort, Brodheadsville,
Saylorsburg and Factoryville.
4G LTE lets Verizon Wireless custom-
ers use their 4G LTE-enabled devices to
surf the Web, post status updates and
photos, share music and download les
at speeds up to 10 times faster than
customers on 3G networks.
B of A, MBIA settle dispute
Bank of America and MBIA, a
mortgage insurer, have reached a deal
to settle a dispute over faulty mortgage
securities issued during the U.S. hous-
ing boom, according to the Wall Street
Journal.
As part of the settlement, Bank of
America will pay MBIA $1.6 billion in
cash, along with other compensation,
provide MBIA with a credit line of $500
million and take a stake of about 5
percent in MBIAs holding company, the
Journal said.
Bond insurers like MBIA and Ambac
suffered big losses after the housing
crisis.
As defaults on mortgages rose, de-
faults on bonds backed by the troubled
loans and insured by bond insurers also
climbed. That led to a surge in payouts.
FDAwantstanningbedwarnings
Indoor tanning beds would carry new
warnings about the risk of cancer and
be subject to more stringent federal
oversight, under a proposal unveiled
Monday by the Food and Drug Admin-
istration.
The FDA wants all tanning beds to
carry language warning people younger
than the age of 18 about the risks of
indoor tanning.
The agency would also require
manufacturers to meet certain safety
and performance requirements before
marketing their devices.
The government action is aimed at
curbing cases of melanoma, the deadli-
est form of skin cancer, which have
been on the rise for about 30 years. This
year an estimated 76,690 cases of the
disease will be diagnosed, according to
the American Cancer Society.
THE TIMES LEADER TUESDAY, MAY 7, 2013 timesleader.com
WASHINGTON It seems like a
simple proposition: Give employees
who work more than 40 hours a week
the option of taking paid time off in-
stead of overtime pay.
The choice already exists in the
public sector. Federal and state work-
ers can save earned time off and use
it weeks or even months later to at-
tend a parent-teacher conference,
care for an elderly parent or deal with
home repairs.
Republicans in Congress are push-
ing legislation that would extend that
option to the private sector. They say
that would bring more exibility to
the workplace and help workers bet-
ter balance family and career.
The push is part of a broader Re-
publican agenda undertaken by
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor,
R-Va., to expand the partys politi-
cal appeal to working families. The
House is expected to vote on the
measure this week, but the Demo-
cratic-controlled Senate isnt likely
to take it up.
For some people, time is more
valuable than the cash that would
be accrued in overtime, said Rep.
Martha Roby, R-Ala., the bills chief
sponsor. Why should public-sector
employees be given a benet and the
private sector be left out?
But the idea Republicans promote
as pro-worker is vigorously opposed
by worker advocacy groups, labor
unions and most Democrats, who
claim its really a backdoor way for
businesses to skimp on overtime pay.
This is nothing more than an ef-
fort to turn a sows ear into a silk
purse, said Judith Lichtman, senior
adviser to the National Partnership
for Women and Families.
GOP seeks alternative to overtime pay
By SAMHANANEL
Associated Press
More gamblers are hitting the slots
and blackjack tables in the U.S., giv-
ing the industry a 4.8 percent boost
in 2012, its biggest since the reces-
sion.
Consumer spending at casinos
grew to $37.3 billion, slightly below
the industrys 2007 record high at
$37.5 billion, according to a report
released Monday from the American
Gaming Association.
The boost is due to an improving
economy and increased consumer
spending, the trade group said. Rev-
enues are also up because of the
opening of new casinos in markets
like New York City, Kansas and Ohio.
But the rise in new casinos in the
mid-Atlantic region contributed to
decreased revenues in Delaware and
New Jersey.
After three years of increasing
growth and positive signs in all sec-
tors of the industry, its clear that we
have weathered the recession, Frank
J. Fahrenkopf Jr., president and CEO
of the American Gaming Associa-
tion, said in a statement.
Whether we look at jobs, casino
visitors served or tax revenues be-
ing provided, the bottom line is that
there is much to be optimistic about
in the commercial casino industry.
Fifteen of the 22 states that had
commercial casinos in 2011 saw
increases. Kansas saw the largest
boost at 603.7 percent, followed by
Maryland and Maine with respective
increases of 142.6 percent and 66.9
percent.
This was driven by the opening of
new casinos or casinos that had their
rst full year of operations, according
to the gaming trade group.
In 2012, New Jersey saw a decline
of 8 percent in gross gaming revenue,
the largest decrease, after Super-
storm Sandy led to temporary casino
closings and reduced tourism.
Nevada, the biggest gambling
market with 265 operating casinos,
experienced a 1.5 percent increase
in gross gaming revenue in 2012 at
$10.9 billion.
While revenues grew, gaming in-
dustry-related jobs fell by 0.9 percent
from 2011. The more than 332,000
people who are employed by the in-
dustry earned $13.2 billion in wages,
benets and tips in 2012.

Being t can do more than
help you lose weight. In todays
workplace, it can even put money
in your pocket. Studies have
shown that nancial incentives
are great tools for weight loss,
said Jimmy Fleming, co-founder
of HealthyWage, a purveyor of
nancial incentive-based weight-
loss programs for businesses and
individuals.
Here are tips from our experts
on how to incorporate a suc-
cessful incentive-based tness
program at the ofce:
Do it in groups: We help
corporations do a team chal-
lenge, which puts people in teams
of ve and they spend 12 weeks
supporting one another and
pressuring one another, Fleming
said. Theyre competing with
other teams within the same
company and sometimes against
other companies. When more is
at stake, participants tend to stick
to it.
Vary the rewards: Find out
whats important to your staff,
Vaughn said. Really connect
on what they consider valu-
able. Maybe paid days off would
mean more to them than a cash
reward. Gift cards and vacation
or spa packages could cost less
for companies because they can
buy them in bulk or in packages,
Hutchings said.
Pay to play: Employers think
that more people will participate
if they make it less expensive, but
the academic research shows
and our experience shows that
if people dont have some skin in
the game so to speak, they tend
to care about it less, they tend
to be less likely to nish and less
likely to lose weight, Fleming
said. Our participants pay a
little money when they sign up
(between $30 and $75 depending
on the program or corporation),
but if theyve succeeded, they
get their money back along with
a cash reward. Its like betting on
yourself.
Use social media: We encour-
age people to do things together,
like making a healthy meal or
exercising together, and then
post pictures or videos in social
media, Fleming said. We have a
contest where they have the best
before photo and the best team
exercise photo. People submit
all sorts of crazy photos that are
focused on being healthy and this
keeps people engaged and social.
You can be healthy and fun at
the same time, and thats what
our research is showing us.

Before Kevin Dickerson became a
nurse at Decatur Morgan Hospital a
few weeks ago, he worked as a tness
consultant, taught high school chemis-
try, owned a massage therapy practice
and was a personal trainer.
Dickerson, 43, a self-described jack
of all trades, said the odd jobs he held
in the past inspired him to get a nurs-
ing degree, which he received last year
from the University of North Alabama.
Everything I did brought me back to
working with people, he said. When I
was a massage therapist, I helped a lot
of people with multiple sclerosis, bro-
myalgia and athletic injuries. I loved
helping make people feel better.
Dickerson, of Huntsville, joins nearly
one third of U.S. males who will take
on positions this decade in elds where
women dominate 70 percent of the
work force, according to U.S. News and
World Report.
Although a report from the White
House Council on Women and Girls
shows less than 25 percent of Ameri-
can women hold science, technology,
engineering and manufacturing jobs, a
recent ve-year study revealed that fe-
male entrepreneurship is up.
Women who own retail stores, sa-
lons and consulting businesses jumped
37 percent, and those who owned
construction and trucking companies
spiked 50 percent, according to the
Center for Womens Business Research.
About 115,000 women-owned business-
es were operating statewide in 2011, a
65 percent increase since 1997.
While more men and women are tak-
ing on nontraditional jobs, Athens State
University associate professor Kim
LaFevor said gender segregation in the
workplace still exists.
However, the emerging trend is
promising, she said. It suggests a shift
in our pattern of thinking about what
is culturally acceptable with respect to
gender nontraditional work roles for
both men and women.
Despite the inux of female-owned
businesses, 2010 U.S. Census data
show secretaries and administrative
assistants are the most common jobs
among women a work force trend
since the 1950s.
Breaking barriers
Athens resident Annaliese Christo-
pher received a general automotive
degree from the Technology Center of
Tennessee in Nashville after graduating
from Athens Bible School in 2008.
Now a sales associate at OReilly
Auto Parts in Athens, Christopher, 23,
has worked for Railroad Bazaar install-
ing car speakers and for an Athens auto
shop repairing vehicles. She hopes to
attend Calhoun Community College
soon to earn a business degree so she
can open her own shop.
Gender lines

or Tena Knight, one of the best lessons she
learned in nursing came when she was a pa-
tient in 1999.
It really changed my outlook on how I care for
my patients, said Knight, a registered nurse
at Southeast Alabama Medical Center in Do-
than. I wish I could have been a patient ear-
lier. I think it would have changed the way
I cared for my patients earlier on rather
than four years after I got into the pro-
fession. I started looking at my care
through my patients eyes instead
of just as a nurse.
When people come into the
hospital as patients, theyve al-
ready lost a sense of control in
their lives and are vulnerable.
Anyone who has ever been
hospitalized or has had a
loved one hospitalized un-
derstands the difference
a nurse can make in the
experience.
According to
the American
Nurses Associ-
ation, there are
3.1 million reg-
istered nurses,
or RNs, in the
United States.
Of that total, 2.6
million RNs are
actually employed in
nursing with more than
60 percent working in hos-
pitals.
National Nurses Week is celebrated each
year from May 6 recognized as National
Nurses Day through May 12, which is the
birthday of British social reformer Florence Night-
ingale, considered the pioneer of modern nursing.

Ive always liked working
with my hands, she said. Its
exciting when you gure out
the problem and then you x it.
I like knowing how everything
works, especially on cars, which
are something you use every
day.
Christopher said shes proud
to break gender barriers in a
male-dominated auto industry,
but she sometimes faces hard-
ships on the job.
Its hard being a girl, she
said. People come into work
and always want to talk to the
man. A lot of them, their rst
impression is, She doesnt
know what shes talking about,
but here at OReilly, once they
learn who I am, it doesnt really
matter to them that Im a girl.
Concerned about whether
their occupation is gender ap-
propriate, some men may take
a job that ts the construct of
what others expect, rather than
what he may really want to do,
LaFevor said.
Stereotypes and biases of the
social mirror can get in the way
of an individual making a well-
informed decision, she said.
This tendency to embrace mas-
culine ideology holds a set of
beliefs and expectations about
what men like and should do.
Dickerson, who took a
15-month accelerated nursing
program at UNA, said half of his
nursing class was male.
Sometimes the patients look
at you funny, but I think thats
changing, he said. Most of the
time, people say, Thats cool;
we need more male nurses, but
sometimes the older genera-
tion looks at you and says, But
youre a guy!
Shorter schooling
Many local in-demand careers
no longer require a four-year de-
gree, but instead allow workers
to get on-the-job training or a
two-year degree or certicate.
Pharmacists, nurses, physical
therapists, phlebotomists, home
health workers and other medi-
cal professions are on the rise in
Decatur.
I think pretty soon, nursing
is going to be half and half, or
maybe even have more men,
Dickerson said. In this work cli-
mate, its getting harder to nd
a job. With nursing in demand,
and a lot of older female nurses
retiring, there are more men, es-
pecially older men like me, who
are seeing the opportunity.
Athens native Athena Hinkle,
21, a welder at Izzy Plus in
Florence, took welding classes
for three years at Limestone
County Career Technical Center
while she was a student at Ath-
ens Bible School.
She studied welding and
played volleyball at Northwest
Shoals Community College un-
til the athletic program closed
in 2011. She hopes to enter the
industrial maintenance eld af-
ter she nishes her degree.
Hinkle now works full time
welding furniture for schools
and ofces. She said welding
is very tough, especially in the
summertime with no A/C.
Youre constantly breathing
in toxins, but you get used to
the heat, she said. There are
some days when you just want
to quit. It takes a toll on your
body.
Welders typically attend a
two-year school or get on-the-
job training before landing full-
time work. The Bureau of La-
bor Statistics predicts welding,
which pays about $35,000 annu-
ally, will increase 15 percent by
2020.
The only female welder at
Izzy Plus, Hinkle also is the
youngest employee at the com-
pany.
Most everybody there has
kids my age, she said.
Hinkle said the other weld-
ers are proper and respectful
around her.
Of course, my dad wasnt too
happy that I was doing this at
rst, but I knew it was good for
me, she said. He didnt want
me working around nasty old
men all day, but he likes it now.
To young women consider-
ing a nontraditional career path,
Christopher advises: Dont be
afraid to get dirty.
Work hard and do the best
you can.

Ever since the drug warfarin
was discovered to be a highly
effective anti-clotting agent as
well as a good rat poison in
the early 1950s, it has been the
frontline weapon in prevent-
ing stroke among those with
atrial brillation. But its grow-
ing use has always raised the
specter of dangerously hard-
to-stanch bleeding if someone
taking it is wounded or bleeds
internally from a fall or a car
accident.
Roughly six decades after
its introduction, Kcentra has
been approved by the Food
and Drug Administration. Its
a new product designed to
quickly reverse the effects of
warfarin. The prothrombin
complex concentrate is made
from the pooled plasma of
healthy donors, and it joins
a cluster of other reversal
agents capable of restoring
coagulation, including vitamin
K and fresh-frozen plasma, in
people who take warfarin.
But vitamin K takes time to
work, and so does frozen plas-
ma, which must be thawed and
typed to the recipients blood
group. Kcentra does not need
to be typed to the recipients
blood and so can be used more
quickly to reverse the effects of
warfarin.
The new agent does not,
however, work to reverse the
effects of two anticoagulants
that are new to the market
dabigatran (marketed as
Pradaxa) or rivaroxaban (mar-
keted as Xarelto). Last year,
a case study in the Journal of
Neurosurgery underscored
that physicians still lack re-
versal agents that can restore
coagulation in patients taking
these new medications, with
sometimes deadly results.
Just more than 2 million
Americans are thought to have
atrial brillation, which puts
them at much higher risk of
stroke, and that number is
expected to grow to 5.6 mil-
lion by 2050 as the population
ages. Many taking warfarin are
switching to the newer and
more effective stroke-prevent-
ing medications, and most
newly diagnosed atrial-bril-
lation cases appear to be pre-
scribed them rst.
As a result, the Food and
Drug Administration is eager
to consider therapies that can
reverse the anticoagulant ef-
fects of these new drugs, as
well as products such as Kcen-
tra, which can speed coagula-
tion in those taking warfarin.

Both Southeast Alabama Medi-
cal Center and Flowers Hospital
have events planned this week.
After three years as a nurse,
Claire McClenney has found a
balance in her job in the cardio-
vascular intensive care unit at
Flowers Hospital.
You do have to have a heart,
McClenney said. Ive cried
with patients and families, but
then sometimes you just have to
be real strong. Theres a healthy
balance between getting close
to the family and the patients
and just having to do your job
and do it well.
The Headland native spends
a 12-hour shift working with
post-surgical heart patients who
come to the unit directly from
surgery, still with their breath-
ing tubes in.
Its hard work, but McClen-
ney said she likes being one on
one with patients.
It is a big responsibility,
she said. You do learn leader-
ship skills I denitely have.
You learn to work as a team. We
wouldnt be able to do it if we
didnt have a teamYou do rely
on everyone else up here, its not
just you.
Flowers Hospital employs 570
registered nurses and licensed
practical nurses, or LPNs.
There are approximately 900
nurses employed at Southeast
Alabama Medical Center, or
SAMC. Along with the two hos-
pitals, there are the multitude
of medical practices, nursing
homes and urgent care facilities
in the Dothan area that employ
nurses.
McClenney eventually wants
to return to school to become a
certied registered nurse anes-
thetist. Her career choice as a
nurse has come with more ex-
ibility and potential for career
growth than many people might
realize.
I like taking care of people,
she said. I like being indepen-
dent and knowing that in the
medical eld theres a never-
ending job opportunity It
doesnt just end with your bach-
elors.
There are a variety of nurs-
ing jobs within a single facility.
At SAMC, for example, nurses
could work directly with pa-
tients in areas such as neurol-
ogy, cardiovascular, pediatrics,
critical care, obstetrics and gy-
necology, orthopedics and psy-
chiatry. There are other nursing
positions in the hospital, such
as case management and occu-
pational nursing.
Nursing has seen steady
growth over the years as a pro-
fession and is expected to con-
tinue to grow, according to the
American Nurses Association.
However, its also projected
that by 2025 the demand for
nurses will exceed the number
available, creating a potential
nationwide shortage of 260,000
nurses.
Registered nursing was listed
by the Alabama Department of
Labor as the profession having
the most job openings around
the state during the month of
March, according to an Asso-
ciated Press news report that
came out earlier this week.
Fundamentally, youve got to
have compassion and love for
what you do and love to take
care of patients, said registered
nurse Brooke Segrest, who
works at Southeast Alabama
Medical Center. But nursing in
general, as a profession, there
are numerous options, exibil-
ity and so many opportunities
inside the profession.
While they work in different
departments, both Knight and
Segrest have similar manage-
ment jobs as clinical nurse spe-
cialists at SAMC.
Knight, who works in criti-
cal care, has been in the profes-
sion 18 years. Segrest works in
SAMCs cardiovascular unit and
has been in nursing for 10 years.
In their roles, Knight and
Segrest work closely with other
nurses, handling orientation
for new nurses and monitoring
the care provided to patients
throughout their hospital stay
to make sure the best practices
are used.
Theyve seen a lot of new
nurses who wanted to pursue
one area only to discover a love
for something else. And, theyve
seen a lot of second-career nurs-
es.
Both Segrest and Knight said
the profession is rewarding.
One of the reasons Ive re-
mained in the profession is
I nd my job is rewarding,
Knight said. At the end of the
day I can appreciate what I do to
be productive in society.

Continued from Page 1C
According to the American Nurses Association,
there are 3.1 million registered nurses, or RNs,
in the United States. Of that total, 2.6 million
RNs are actually employed in nursing with more
than 60 percent working in hospitals.

WASHINGTON Its not
a Star Trek tricorder, but by
hooking a variety of gadgets
onto a smartphone you could al-
most get a complete physical
without the paper gown or even
a visit to the doctors ofce.
Blood pressure? Just plug the
arm cuff into the phone for a
quick reading.
Heart OK? Put your ngers in
the right spot, and the squiggly
rhythm of an EKG appears on
the phones screen.
Plug in a few more devices
and you could have photos of
your eardrum (Look, no infec-
tion!) and the back of your eye,
listen to your heartbeat, chart
your lung function, even get a
sonogram.
If this sounds like a little too
much DIY medical care, well,
the idea isnt to self-diagnose
with Dr. iPhone. But companies
are rapidly developing minia-
ture medical devices that tap
the power of the ubiquitous
smartphone in hopes of chang-
ing how people monitor their
own health.
We wanted to make sure they
have all the right tools available
in their pocket is how Joseph
Flaherty of AgaMatrix describes
his companys tiny glucose
monitor. Diabetics can plug the
iBGStar into the bottom of an
iPhone and check blood sugar
on the go without carrying an
extra device.
This mobile medicine also
might help doctors care for pa-
tients in new ways. In March,
prominent San Diego cardi-
ologist Eric Topol tweeted no
emergency landing reqd when
he used his smartphone EKG to
diagnose a distressing but not
immediately dangerous irregu-
lar heartbeat in a fellowairplane
passenger at 30,000 feet.
And the University of Califor-
nia, San Francisco, hopes to en-
roll a staggering 1 million people
in its Health eHeart Study to see
whether using mobile technology,
including smartphone tracking of
peoples heart rate and blood pres-
sure, could help treat and prevent
cardiovascular disease.
The question: Do smartphone
devices really work well enough
for the average patient and
primary-care doctor to dive in,
or are early adopters just going
for the cool factor? Many of the
tools cost $100 to $200, theres
little public sales information
yet, and its not clear how in-
surers will handle the edgling
trend.
Technology sometimes
evolves faster than were ready
for it, cautioned Dr. Glen
Stream of the American Acade-
my of Family Physicians. Were
recognizing more and more that
not all care needs to be deliv-
ered face to face, but only if
people measure the right things
and have a relationship with a
doctor to help make good use of
the ndings, he stressed.
Addressing a recent TED-
MED conference in Washing-
ton, Dr. Susan Desmond-Hell-
mann, UCSFs chancellor, put
the challenge this way: How
does mobile monitoring be-
come something more than a
toy or something interesting?
How does it connect to how Im
cared for by my caregiver?
About 300 doctors, health pol-
icy wonks and others attending
that high-tech meeting received
what was dubbed a smartphone
physical from medical students
using 10 of the latest devices.
The Food and Drug Administra-
tion has approved a number of
the gadgets for sale; others are
experimental prototypes gath-
ered for the demonstration by
Nurture by Steelcase and the
doctor website Medgadget.
Its going to be our genera-
tion that adopts most of these,
noted Shiv Gaglani, a Johns
Hopkins medical student who
helped organize the project.
The FDA cites industry esti-
mates that 500 million smart-
phone users worldwide will
use some type of health app by
2015. Todays apps mostly are
educational tools, digital health
diaries or reminders and tness
sensors. The new trend is to-
ward more sophisticated medi-
cal apps, some that work with
plug-in devices, that provide
information a doctor might nd
useful.
Some of the devices sell by
prescription or on drugstore
shelves, while others like the
diabetes monitor and blood-
pressure cuff have entered a
new venue for medicine the
Apple store.
Simplicity is part of the idea.
Take the AliveCor Heart Moni-
tor. Snap it on like a smartphone
case, place ngers on the sensors
no sticky wires on the chest
and youve got an EKGrecord-
ing in 30 seconds. The FDA ap-
proved sale of the $199 device
in December for doctors to use
in exams or to prescribe for pa-
tients to use on themselves.
It doesnt measure as much
as a full-scale EKG, and patients
must email the recording to a
doctor for analysis. But heart
patients frequently experience
palpitations that have ended by
the time they reach a cardiolo-
gist and emailing an on-the-
spot EKG reading might help
the doctor gure out what hap-
pened, said AliveCor co-founder
Dr. Dave Albert.
This is a brand-new technol-
ogy. Were trying to understand
how people will use it, said
Albert, whose company also is
seeking FDA permission to sell
the device over the counter.
Welch Allyns iExaminer taps
the smartphones camera to
photograph deep inside the eye
the orange view of the retina
lling the phones screen.
Similarly, CellScope Inc. is
developing an otoscope that
magnier doctors use to peer
into the ear that can snap a
photo of the eardrum. Its not
for sale yet, but might parents
one day email that kind of pic-
ture to the pediatrician before
deciding whether Johnny needs
an ofce visit?
It was great to see it on the
phone, rather than the pinpoints
we get to see through a tradi-
tional scope, said Dr. Bertina
Yen, a Los Angeles internist-
turned-health IT specialist. She
turned the tables during her
smartphone physical, taking
over some of the equipment to
try it out herself.
And University of Washing-
ton researchers are testing a
way to measure lung function in
people with asthma or emphyse-
ma as they blow onto the phone
and it captures the sound. Usu-
ally patients blow into special
machines at the doctors ofce,
while a use-anywhere version
might help someone spot early
signs of worsening before they
see a doctor.
Insurers are studying what
smartphone technology to pay
for. For example, health care gi-
ant Kaiser Permanente is about
to begin a project in Georgia to
sell the iBGStar alongside other
diabetes monitors in its on-site
pharmacies. The project will
determine whether patients
like the smartphone monitor,
if it improves care and if so,
whether the readings should
beam into patients electronic
health records, in Georgia and
in other Kaiser regions.
Need a physical? There
may be an app for that

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: Im re-
sponding to your re-
quest for comments
about the letter from
Happily Single
(Feb. 13) and wheth-
er a divorce would
be the first course of
action upon winning the lottery. In a
community-property state, a divorce
AFTER winning wouldnt legally
protect you from having to share the
spoils with your soon-to-be ex-spouse.
My husband and I have talked at
length about what wed do if either of
us won the Powerball jackpots, and
no, divorce was NOT on the list. Wed
start by consulting a lawyer/financial
planner to find a way to protect our
privacy before claiming the money.
I suspect the comments from Hap-
pilys co-workers are evidence that
unhappily marrieds group together
or enjoy complaining about their
spouses. Studies show that complain-
ing about a spouse significantly de-
creases ones satisfaction in a relation-
ship. While we all vent from time
to time, if talking divorce is your first
response to a jackpot win, then youre
in the wrong relationship.
In it For the Long Haul
Dear In It: I hit the jackpot with the
huge response I received about that
letter. And the majority of readers
said they would NOT divorce:
Dear Abby: I am a lottery winner,
and I feel blessed and proud that I
can take care of my wife the way she
deserves. Within two minutes of my
win I was on the phone with her, tell-
ing her to quit her stressful job. We
now have a wonderful life, with more
than we ever hoped for.
Satisfied in the Sunshine State
Dear Abby: Im single, but that let-
ter didnt surprise me. I think a lot of
people feel they must be married by a
certain age, so they end up settling.
Read some of the crazy lottery winner
stories posted online, and youll see
people trade in their spouses because
they feel they can do better or move
up, kind of like buying a bigger, bet-
ter house. Im not saying its right,
but it happens.
Cindy in Arlington, Va.
Dear Abby: If I won the lottery, the
first thing Id do is GET married.
Were waiting so we can afford the
nice wedding we both want.
Stephanie in Saugus, Calif.
Dear Abby: Ive been married for 40
years. If I won I would not divorce.
Theres NO WAY Id want to give him
half the money. I would stay mar-
ried so I could have control over the
money he spent. It would make up
for all the years that he would pinch
my pennies and make me squeeze a
nickel till the buffalo pooped.
Wishful in Ohio
Dear Abby: If I were to win the lot-
tery, I would trade all of it just to
have one more hug and one more
night talking with my wife, who
died 16 years ago. Our children were
young when she died, and I have tried
my best to raise them to be good
adults. But my heart still aches over
losing her to cancer. I believe all wid-
ows and widowers would agree with
me on this.
Trent in Oklahoma

To receive a collection of Abbys most
memorable and most frequently re-
quested poems and essays, send a busi-
ness-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 Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage
is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You
cant control what other people
want, and it usually isnt about
you, anyway. Youre on a mission
to find a good fit. Mutual ben-
efits are the only benefits that
interest you.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You
see only your half of a relation-
ship. Youll never know exactly
what the other person thinks. It
is likely that what is demonstrat-
ed is only the tip of the iceberg.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your
playfulness knows no bounds
today. Youll see most of your
interactions as opportunities
to spread warmth and silliness.
Forging lighthearted connections
is a noble pursuit.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). The
beautiful part about living hon-
estly is that questions wont
scare you. Youll get some odd
questions today, and youll feel
perfectly comfortable expressing
who you are.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your life
will be touched by an element of
mystery. Youre smart, and youll
figure out the illusion involved,
but youre also fun, so youll take
your time, enjoying the ruse.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your
emotional life gets a boost with
todays close encounter. This
could be about making new
friends, allowing yourself to be
influenced or experiencing the
rush that comes with new love.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Those
who work for praise or the ego
rush that comes from extra
attention wont be able to sus-
tain a consistent workflow. Seek
partners who use work as a
means to learn and share.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Well-
meaning friends will give crum-
my advice. Just because some-
one is close to you doesnt make
him or her an expert on your life.
Its better to ask the real experts
about the issues that affect you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Even though youre in the midst
of a competition, it will benefit
you to tone down the level of
aggression and cultivate a spirit
of harmony and cooperation. Its
easy to be generous when you
know youre going to win.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
You do your most brilliant work
when you lose your awareness of
how youre coming off, the time
and all possible gains that could
come of a project. Lose yourself,
and you gain everything.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). A
female figure will be important
to the action. She will encourage
you in just the right way and/or
gently hold you accountable for
what you wanted to accomplish.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Unusual circumstances could
inspire you to behave in a way
that is not typical of you. The
response you get will be most
enlightening, and theres some-
thing concrete to gain from what
you learn.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (May 7). This
month you will meet someone
new, immediately like that per-
son and spark an epic relation-
ship. Success in June depends
on your ability to observe well
and correctly analyze what you
see. Actively seek mentorship.
July is your chance to do a dif-
ferent kind of work. Your lucky
numbers are: 9, 2, 44, 48 and 19.
DALLAS Life, one might
say, is a dance a choreog-
raphy of steps graceful and
gangly, clumsy and hesitant,
breathtaking and bold. No one
dances or hears lifes music in
quite the same way.
Which is, in a way, why the
Dance for Movement Disor-
ders class exists at all. And
why, above the music during
these thrice-weekly classes,
instructor and class founder
Misty Owens periodically
calls, All variations accepted!
Being granted such permis-
sion makes everyone smile.
Her words seem to strengthen
their resolve, to put a bit more
determination into their steps
that, an hour ago, were much
more hesitant.
The rst time I walked in,
says Doris Sosnowski of Dal-
las, who has taken the class
since it began in January 2012,
I felt normal again.
Like most people in the
class, she has Parkinsons dis-
ease. Others have multiple
sclerosis or other syndromes
that cause them to tremble or
freeze or have declining con-
trol of their movements.
In this wide-windowed,
wood-oored studio at Texas
Health Finley Ewing Cardio-
vascular & Fitness Center Dal-
las, Owens helps them become
free.
Dancing improves their
rhythm and timing, which
are lost with such diseases,
Owens says. It improves u-
idity and balance. They rid
themselves of rigidity. Their
tremors fade away sometimes.
Their capacity for movement
changes.
As class begins and everyone
sits in folding chairs pulled
into a circle, she reaches for
her iPod, which shes plugged
into a sound dock on the oor
next to her. She pushes a but-
ton; the rst song is Ive Got
the World on a String, per-
formed by Ella Fitzgerald. But
thats just today; each playlist
is different, a unique combi-
nation of Big Band, doo-wop,
Broadway classics, jazz stan-
dards, classical music, rock n
roll and international tunes.
Owens says she puts a lot of
time into compiling each list,
nding the right tempos, dy-
namics, ow and quality for
my dance combinations, and
for the desired effect I look for
in the movements of my dance
students.
Those last three words
capture it all; these men and
women arent patients to her:
Theyre students of dance.
The core of my being re-
volves around dance, and that
love comes through my efforts
to inspire others to experience
the joy and freedom of move-
ment that means so much to
me, she says.
After only a few notes, give
or take an arm lift and stretch,
you see and sense and feel her
passion.
Scoop, hands together,
low, Owens directs. Dive
into a higher space and lower
to the oor. Cross your hands
like youre ying.
Muscles start to warm up,
and Owens stops the music
for introductions. She begins,
forming a large, elaborate M
with her arm as she says her
name. Everyone repeats it,
then takes turns going around
the circle with their own
names and gestures. Vicky
claps twice; one of the Jims
kicks the air; the other waves
his arms. Betty raises her arms
and legs.
Jim Rosenbloom started the
class after having a problem
with his rotator cuff. His doc-
tor recommended surgery;
Rosenbloom said he wanted to
try exercise rst.
After a month and a half, I
was ne, says Rosenbloom,
68, who has had Parkinsons
for a decade. I went to the
doctor, and he said, What have
you been doing? If you do the
right thing, it gives you hope.
You see it working and know it
isnt just talk.
An unexpected benet of the
class, he says, is that his hand-
writing has improved. I think
its because you learn body
control so nely in these danc-
es, so after a while it becomes
second nature.
As the class progresses, so
do the intricacies and combi-
nations of movements. Partici-
pants punch an imaginary wall
at waist level, shoulder level,
hip level. For another move,
Owens tells them to imagine a
tassel on their shoulders:
Grab it and pull it down!
she says.
To a Brazilian song, they
stretch their arms: Brush!
Owens says. Scoop! Lift!
Owens knows what it takes
for everyone to be here. Par-
kinsons isnt just a matter of
shaking. Seemingly simple
movements zipping a zip-
per, tying a shoe involve a
painstaking process. Patients
must learn the intricacies of
timing their meds and their
meals to make them most ef-
cient, she says.
Its not just zipping into the
gym when you feel like it, she
says. You lift one leg into the
car, then reach down and lift
the other one in.
Owens grew up in Dallas
and taught her rst class at age
15 at London School of Dance,
the East Dallas studio where
she is now artistic director and
that her mother has owned for
47 years.
As class continues on this
sunny Tuesday, the dancers
move their feet in heel-toe rep-
etitions as Mel Torme sings
Games People Play. They
extend their legs, ex their
feet, bend at the waist. They
shufe as they sit, crossing
their ankles, holding position.
Owens leads; they all follow
with seeming ease and grace.
You can lose yourself in the
choreography, the rhythm, the
palpable comfort they all feel
with what theyre doing, with
one another and with her.
When she says, OK, every-
body, lets go to the barre,
class member Joanna Evans,
who is in her 60s and has a dis-
order that causes a muscle in
her neck to twitch uncontrol-
lably, says quietly, This isnt
physical therapy. Its emotional
therapy.
Jerri Capps, tall and pos-
ture-perfect, looks so at ease
standing at the barre that
youd swear shes been danc-
ing for years. Oh no, she later
says; she never had before she
walked into the class a month
ago.
My gosh, this is so invigo-
rating, so liberating, says
Capps, 58, whose Parkinsons
was diagnosed 10 years ago.
Parkinsons is kind of a sen-
tence. There is no cure. Its not
a club you want to be in, but if
youre in it, you make the best
of it.
Owens was teaching at the
Mark Morris Dance Group in
Brooklyn in 2002 when the
company decided to start its
Movement Disorders class and
she was asked to be one of its
founders. Before then, her only
connection to Parkinsons was
from her childhood. A neigh-
bor who was often outdoors
went inside one day; from then
on, shed only catch glimpses of
him through his front window.
Only when he died did Owens
learn he had Parkinsons.
Patients used to be told,
Sit down; you might fall. Now
its, Exercise every day and do
different things, says Owens,
whose experience inspired her
to write her masters thesis on
using dance to manage symp-
toms of Parkinsons. I always
had questions about him when
I grew up. He was so opposite
my world, someone not mov-
ing at all.
Bobby Helms sings My Spe-
cial Angel as Owens enthu-
siasm continues to enthrall:
Bend your knees. Your hips
go right under you. Excellent
job! Your balance is right on
the money! Theres no pay, but
youre all hired.
At this point, all but a few
have released the barre as they
do shufe steps punctuated by
the occasional Woo!
Oh, Jim, Owens says to
one student, I love that you
love to do that. A man after my
own heart a man who likes
to Woo!
