WikiLeaks: Snowden going to Ecuador
Lynn Berry and
Sylvia Hui
TheAssociated Press
MOSCOW Edward
Snowden, the former
National Security Agency
contractor wanted by the
United States for reveal-
ing highly classied sur-
veillance programs, ew
to Russia on Sunday and
planned to head to Ecuador
to seek asylum, the South
American countrys foreign
minister and the anti-secre-
cy group WikiLeaks said.
Foreign Minister Ricardo
Patino said his government
has received a request for
asylum from Snowden.
WikiLeaks, which is giving
Snowden legal assistance,
said his asylum request
wouldbe formally processed
once he arrived in Ecuador,
the same country that has
already been sheltering the
anti-secrecy groups found-
er Julian Assange in its
London embassy.
Snowden arrived in
Moscow on an Aeroot
ight Sunday after being
allowed to leave Hong
Kong, where he had been
in hiding for several weeks
after he revealed informa-
tion on the highly classied
spy programs.
Snowden was spend-
ing the night in Moscows
Sheremetyevo Airport and
was booked on an Aeroot
ight to Cuba today, the
Russian news agencies
ITAR-Tass and Interfax
reported, citing unnamed
airline ofcials. Aeroot
has no direct ights from
Moscow to Quito, Ecuador;
travelers would have to
make connections in Paris,
Rome or Washington,
which could be problematic
for Snowden.
Kristinn Hrafnsson, the
WikiLeaks spokesman,
told Britains Sky News
that Snowden would be
meeting with diplomats
from Ecuador in Moscow.
WikiLeaks said he was
being escorted by diplomats
and legal advisers from the
group.
The car of Ecuadors
ambassador to Russia was
parked outside the airport
in the evening.
Assange, who has spent a
year inside the Ecuadorean
Embassy in London to
avoid extradition to Sweden
to face questioning about
sex crime allegations, told
the Sydney Morning Herald
that WikiLeaks is in a posi-
tion to help because it has
expertise in international
asylum and extradition law.
A U.S. ofcial in
Washington said Snowdens
passport was annulled
before he left Hong Kong,
which could complicate but
not thwart his travel plans.
The U.S. ofcial, who spoke
on condition of anonymity
for lack of authorization to
discuss the matter, said that
if a senior ofcial in a coun-
try or airline ordered it, a
country could overlook the
withdrawn passport.
While Patino did not
say if the asylum request
would be accepted,
Ecuadors President Rafael
Correa has shown repeat-
ed willingness to irk the
U.S. government and he
has emerged as one of the
leaders of Latin Americas
leftist bloc, along with
Fidel and Raul Castro of
Cuba and Venezuelas late
President Hugo Chavez.

RICE TWP. A vote Tuesday could sound a death
knell for Rice Township Volunteer Fire Department.
A bitter battle over the ailing departments future
leading up to a vote to decertify the department has
caused divisions in the township.
Armed with a list of the departments alleged short-
comings, the township supervisors approached Rob
Brady, a re department expert from the Governors
Center for Local Government Services for advice.
After he reviewed all the facts and stories, (Bradys)
recommendation was to decertify Rice Township, said
Supervisor George Venesky.
In an ordinance printed in the newspaper last week,

Junk food junkies rejoice! Twinkies back July 15
Candice Choi
APFood Industry Writer
NEW YORK Hostess is bet-
ting on a sweet comeback for
Twinkies when they return to
shelves next month.
The company that went bank-
rupt after an acrimonious ght
with its unionized workers last year
is back up and running under new
owners and a leaner structure. It
says it plans to have Twinkies and
other snack cakes back on shelves
starting July 15.
Based on the outpouring of
nostalgia sparked by its demise,
Hostess is expecting a blockbuster
return next month for Twinkies
and other sugary treats, such as
CupCakes and Donettes. The com-
pany says the cakes will taste the
same but that the boxes will now
bear the tag line The Sweetest
Comeback In The History Of Ever.
A lot of impostor products have
come to the market while Hostess
has been off the shelves, says
Daren Metropoulos, a principal of
the investment rm Metropoulos
& Co., which teamed up with
Apollo Global Management to buy
a variety of Hostess snacks.
Hostess Brands Inc. was strug-
gling for years before it led for
Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganiza-
tion in early 2012. Workers blamed
the troubles on years of misman-
agement, as well as a failure of
executives to invest in brands to
keep up with changing tastes. The
company said it was weighed down
by higher pension and medical
costs than its competitors, whose
employees werent unionized.
To steer it through its bankrupt-
cy reorganization, Hostess hired
restructuring expert Greg Rayburn
as its CEO. But Rayburn ultimately
failed to reach a contract agree-
ment with its second largest union.
In November, he blamed striking
workers for crippling the com-
panys ability to maintain normal
production and announced that
Hostess would liquidate.
The shuttering triggered a rush
on Hostess snack cakes, with
stores selling out of the most popu-
lar brands within hours.
About 15,000 unionized workers
lost their jobs in the aftermath.
In unwinding its business,
Hostess soldoff its brands inchunks
to different buyers. Its major bread
brands including Wonder were sold
to Flowers Foods, which makes
Tastykakes. McKee Foods, which
makes Little Debbie snack cakes,
snapped up Drakes Cake, which
includes Devil Dogs and Yodels.
Metropoulos & Co. and Apollo
bought Twinkies and other Hostess
cakes for $410 million.
Apollo Global Management,
foundedbyLeonBlack, isknownfor
buying troubled brands then selling
them for a prot; its investments
include fast-food chains Carls Jr.
and Hardees. Metropoulos & Co.,
which has revamped then sold off
brands including Chef Boyardee
and Bumble Bee, also owns Pabst
Brewing Co.

Monsters beats zombies, Superman at box ofce
LOS ANGELES (AP) Turns
out zombies and Superman are
no match for monsters.
Disneys Monsters University
is the weekend box-ofce winner,
according to studio estimates
released Sunday. The animated
family lm, which reunites stars
Billy Crystal and John Goodman
and their characters from the
2001 hit Monsters, Inc.,
debuted in rst place with $82
million, beating out swarming
zombies in World War Z and
Superman himself in Man of
Steel.
The diversity of this weekend
is part of what makes this busi-
ness so great, said Dave Hollis,
Disneys head of distribution.
Its a really extraordinary week-
end for the industry.
Especially for Monsters
University, Pixars 14th consec-
utive lm to open in rst place.
Such expectations of excellence
put a healthy pressure on lm-
makers, Hollis said: To deliver
that kind of quality consistently
is a differentiator in the market-
place.
Still, the lm exceeded studio
expectations with its domestic
totals, he said.
Paramounts Brad Pitt zombie
romp overcame critical advance
publicity to open in second place
with $66 million. Media reports
months ahead of the lms open-
ing chronicled its problems,
including a revamped ending that
delayed its release.
Rewrites and reshoots sent
the lm over budget. It ended
up reportedly costing more than
$200 million to make, but early
reviews were positive.
What World War Z proves
is that all the negative backstory
that can be thrown at a movie
doesnt matter if the movies
good, said Paul Dergarabedian
of box-ofce tracker Hollywood.
com. I dont think the audi-
ence cares one lick if they had to
reshoot the ending if they like the
ending and like the movie.
The success of the lm means
it could be a franchise in the
making. Paramounts president
of domestic distribution, Don
Harris, called the opening spec-
tacular.
Its the biggest live-action
original opening since Avatar,
he said. (Its) Brad Pitts big-
gest opening ever, and in terms
of Paramounts recent history,
it ranks behind Iron Man and
Transformers as the third larg-
est potential franchise opening in
the history of the company.
Warner Bros. Man of Steel
was third at the box office,
adding another $41.2 million
to its coffers and bringing
its domestic ticket sales over
$210 million in just the second
week of release.
The Sony comedy This Is the
End, which stars Seth Rogen,
James Franco and Jonah Hill as
versions of themselves trapped in
a mansion during the apocalypse,
nished in fourth place.
Summit Entertainments mag-

PITTSTON Not a day
goes by that attorney Joseph
Saporito Jr. doesnt think of
his father, who passed away in
August 2001.
Joseph Saporito Sr. was his
inspiration to become a lawyer
the reason the two men are
the only parent/son duo to have
been named president of the
163-year-old Wilkes-Barre Law
& Library Association.
He was one of the few great
men to walk the face of the
Earth, Saporito said about his
father, who was once Pittstons
mayor, served in the U.S. Navy
and was the son of an Italian
immigrant.
We are the rst, and I am
certain many more will follow,
Saporito said, who serves as
president of the local bar asso-
ciation. Our bar association is
the fourth oldest in the country
and the oldest organized bar
in the country.
Saporito, who has his own
private law rm and works as
an assistant public defender,
was selected by his peers to
serve as the bars 49th presi-
dent in 2012 and re-elected for
a second term in January 2013.
His father served as the 37th
president from 1988 to 1989.
A day has not gone by since
Aug. 6, 2001, that I have not
spent a substantial portion
of the day in some thought
of my father, Saporito said
Wednesday. And now, I even
hear the same things he used
to tell me come out of my own
mouth now, especially with my
children.
The elder Saporito, who
was 82 when he died, attended
Penn States Dickinson School
of Law, graduating in 1942, and
then enlisted in the U.S. Navy,
serving four years in Okinawa.
After he was honorably dis-
charged, he returned to the
Wyoming Valley in 1946 to
begin practicing law.
The elder Saporito married
Dolly Adonizio in 1951, and
the couple had two children:
Carlo and Joseph Jr.
Saporito Sr. was elected
mayor of Pittston at 34 years
old in 1953 the youngest
mayor the city had seen at the
time.
He used to say he may have
been the youngest mayor in the
citys history at the time, but by
the time his term expired, he
felt the oldest, Saporito said.
Saporito Sr. loved helping the
community and his clients, but
mostly being there for his fam-
ily, his son said.
At a young age, Saporito Sr.
would take his son into the
Luzerne County Courthouse.
The boy would marvel at his
father while watching himspeak
before a judge. He enjoyed
meeting people in the different
ofces within the courthouse.
It appealed to me, he said.
And so, Saporito Jr. attend-
ed his fathers alma mater,
Dickinson, earned his law
degree in 1985 and has been
practicing law ever since
including 16 years with his
father.
Saporito Jr. is married to
the former Giovanna Falcone
and is the principal in his law
rm, Saporito, Saporito &
Falcone in Pittston. The cou-
ple have two children. He also
works as a solicitor for Pittston
Area School District and the
Greater Pittston Chamber of
Commerce.
Saporito said his father was a
very proper man always in
a suit and tie. Dress-down day
meant a sport coat and tie.
In our ofce, we still adhere
to dress-down days rules
that my father established,
Saporito said.
His father held the utmost
respect for courtrooms and
those in them, and always acted
and dressed appropriately
there.
The apple is right next
to the tree in that respect,
Saporito said.

Saporitos make bar leadership a family afair
Tour combines faith and art
PITTSTON Sundays
8th Annual Tour of Historic
Churches of Greater Pittston
was a celebration of both the
spiritual and the artistic.
Attendees enjoyed the sights
and sounds of Pittstons St.
Michaels Byzantine Catholic
Church and Italian Christian
Church, both uniquely reflect-
ing their congregations com-
mitment to their religious
beliefs.
The tour increases aware-
ness of local institutions which
bind the community, express
faith, tradition and ethnic histo-
ry, said Jan Lokuta, event coor-
dinator since 2006. Our goal is
to expose hidden treasures.
As Lokuta looked out upon
the sanctuary of St. Michaels,
it was apparent he had indeed
accomplished that goal. The
church filled with iconic art-
work and bright colors creates
an atmosphere of faith and wor-
ship.
Lokuta, a Pittston native
whose parents were married at
St. Michaels, said the church
holds a special place in his
heart.
As we come upon the 100th
anniversary of our church, it is
a pleasure to welcome members
of the community into our the-
ology of color, said the Rev.
Joseph Bertha Each iconic
image reflects a spiritual belief
of the Byzantine Church.
Bertha, addressing almost
100 attendees, said the depic-
tions on the ceiling represent
the four writers of the gospels
John, Matthew, Luke and
Mark. The threshold area in
front of the church represents
mans ability to transcend earth-
ly concerns and to focus on the
spiritual.
Bertha also expounded on
a special part of the church
likened to the Biblical Holy
of Holies and symbolically
reserved for the priest, saying
that men are not capable of fully
understand God, needing to
rely on faith.
The Italian Christian Church,
the second venue on the tour,
focused on experiencing reli-
gious music as an expression of
faith.
Assistant Pastor Peter Sellani
shared the history of the church
from 1935, finding its perma-
nent home on Oak Street in
1977. He emphasized his grati-
tude for church members from
ministers to maintenance,
saying his own father served the
church in various capacities for
over 60 years.
Senior Pastor Peter Caprari
also shared his love for the
church, its music, and its mem-
bers, calling them heroes of
faith.
Helen Macareo and
Antoinette Lucc presented a
duet in Italian that translated
to Let it be O Lord that in my
walk with you, I will be faith-
ful to the end, until you extend
your arms to me with joy.
Sellani emphasized the spiri-
tual nature of the song and
the benefits of the Christian
faith. We believe that Jesus is
the author and finisher of our
faith, he said.
Choir members then shared
a vocal rendition of Isnt the
Love of Jesus Something?
Members said the church
enabled them to grow in faith
while continuing Italian tradi-
tions, culture, and language.
Participants also had the
opportunity for a sneak peek
of the former St. Casmirs
Church, which is being trans-
formed into an arts center by
Gina Malsky.
All in all, said one attendee,
both the day and the churches
were filled with both light and
glory.
WILKES-BARRE For
farmers looking to get rid
of stink bugs, one local
exterminator said theres
really not much you can do
about them.
Rich Colwell, owner of
Colwell Termite & Pest
Control, said there are so
many of the bugs that get-
ting rid of them really isnt
possible.
Weve seen migrations
of the thousands, Colwell
said. Theres really not
much a farmer can do to
get rid of them. They feed
on leaves and trees.
Colwell said he deals
with them in the fall and
winter months when the
stink bugs are looking to
move indoors. He said the
spray products his com-
pany uses for spiders and
ants and other pests also
work on killing stink bugs.
We spray around the
outside of structures, he
said. And we advise peo-
ple to seal all cracks and
crevices to prevent them
from getting inside.
Greg Heller, owner
of Hellers Orchards in
Wapwallopen, said he
has seen stink bugs in his
orchard, but they havent
been a major problem like
they are in the southern
part of the state.
He said he found stink
bug nymphs last year while
picking early apples in
August and he does incur
some minimal damage
each season.
Im expecting to
see them more in July.
Different species of stink
bugs have always been
around and it seems like
the brown marmorated are
the problem, Heller said.
But we sure dont have
the problems like other
areas do.
Stink bugs feed on the
sugars in fruit, vegetables
and even soybeans. The
fruit is scarred but still
usable, Heller said, and
controlling stink bugs is
difcult.
Spraying does work, but
it has to be applied directly
on the insect to kill it.
Heller said nding the
insect itself to be able to
spray it is a problem.
Theyll come into the
orchard from the woods,
eat and go back so you
wont see them, he said.
Larry OMalia, who
has a farm along the
Susquehanna River in
Plains Township, said the
stink bugs havent been a
major problem for him
yet.
They can really damage
crops, like tomatoes and
corn, he said. But the
biggest issue for me is that
theres really nothing that
takes care of them.
OMalia said stink bugs
are fairly new to the region.
He said he started noticing
them about four years ago.
They are not native to the
U.S., having been brought
here from Asia.
Vincent Cotrone of the
Penn State Extension
Ofce in West Pittston said
homeowners have contact-
ed him about dealing with
the bugs, but hasnt heard
of any problems from area
orchards. Still, for those
raising orchard and berry
crops, the bugs can cause
trouble.
Mainly theyre a nui-
sance, unless youre grow-
ing a ton of raspberries
and things like that,
Cotrone said. Could they
be a problem? Yes.
Heller opts not to spray
for the bugs because the
damage, so far, isnt severe.
Spraying would also dis-
rupt his farms integrated
pest management pro-
gram, which utilizes mat-
ing disruption techniques
that dont require spraying.
Heller puts special ties
on his fruit trees that
disrupt male moths from
nding females, prevent-
ing them from laying
eggs.

ISLAMABAD Islamic
militants disguised as police-
men killed 10 foreign climb-
ers and a Pakistani guide
in a brazen overnight raid
against their campsite at the
base of one of the worlds
tallest mountains in north-
ern Pakistan, officials said
Sunday.
The Pakistani Taliban
claimed responsibility for the
attack at the base camp of
Nanga Parbat, saying it was
to avenge the death of their
deputy leader in a U.S. drone
strike last month.
The attack took place
in an area that has largely
been peaceful, hundreds of
kilometers (miles) from the
Talibans major sanctuaries
along the Afghan border. But
the militant group, which has
been waging a bloody insur-
gency against the government
for years, has shown it has the
ability to strike almost any-
where in the country.
The Taliban began their
attack by abducting two local
guides to take them to the
remote base camp in Gilgit-
Baltisan, said Pakistani
Interior Minister Chaudhry
Nisar Ali Khan. One of the
guides was killed in the shoot-
ing, and the other has been
detained for questioning. The
attackers disguised them-
selves by wearing uniforms
used by the Gilgit Scounts,
a paramilitary force that
patrols the area, Khan said.
Around 15 gunmen
attacked the camp at around
11 p.m. Saturday, said the
Alpine Club of Pakistan,
which spoke with a local
guide, Sawal Faqir, who sur-
vived the shooting. They
began by beating the moun-
taineers and taking away any
mobile and satellite phones
they could find, as well as
everyones money, said the
club in a statement.
Some climbers and guides
were able to run away, but
those that werent were shot
dead, said the club.
Attaur Rehman, the home
secretary in Gilgit-Baltistan,
said 10 foreigners and one
Pakistani were killed in the
attack. The dead foreigners
included three Ukrainians,
two Slovakians, two Chinese,
one Lithuanian, one Nepalese
and one Chinese-American,
according to Rehman and tour
operators who were work-
ing with the climbers. Matt
Boland, the acting spokes-
man at the U.S. Embassy in
Islamabad, confirmed that an
American citizen was among
the dead, but could not say
whether it was a dual Chinese
national.
Pakistani Taliban spokes-
man Ahsanullah Ahsan
claimed responsibility for the
attack, saying their Jundul
Hafsa faction carried out the
shooting as retaliation for the
death of the Talibans deputy
leader, Waliur Rehman, in a
U.S. drone attack on May 29.

abortionrestrictions
More than 600 womens rights
protesters crowded into the
Texas Capitol on Sunday to watch
Democrats begin a series of par-
liamentary maneuvers to stop the
Republican majority from pass-
ing some of the toughest abortion
restrictions in the country.
While several bills are under con-
sideration, the only one with a real
chance is Senate Bill 5, an omnibus
bill that would ban abortions after 20
weeks, require that they take place in
surgical centers and restrict where
and when women can take abortion-
inducing pills. Part of the new law
would also require doctors perform-
ing abortions to have admitting priv-
ileges at a hospital within 30 miles.
Supporters say the measures are
intended to protect womens health,
but opponents call them needless
regulations to make abortions more
difficult to obtain.

Kerry urges fxing
global warming
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry
on Sunday urged fast-growing India
to work with the United States on
global warming before its too late.
The irreversible climate challenge
is speeding towards us, crying out
for a global solution, he said.
Kerry spoke on climate change in
a speech in New Delhi, the second
stop on his two-week swing through
the Mideast and Asia, just two days
before President Barack Obama is to
unveil his long-awaited plan for the
United States on the issue.
The worlds largest democracy
and its oldest one must do more
together, uniting not as a threat to
anyone, not as a counterweight to a
region or some other countries, but
as partners building a strong, smart
future in a critical age, Kerry said
in a reference to how India is often
viewed as a counterbalance to China.
People consulting with White
House officials on Obamas plan
say they expect the president to put
forth regulations on heat-trapping
gases emitted by coal-fired power
plants that are already running.
Environmental groups have been
pleading with Obama to take that
step, but the administration has said
its focused first on controls on new
power plants.
Zimmerman
jurors begin
sequestration
Mike Schneider
Associated Press
SANFORD, Fla. The six
jurors and four alternates who will
hear opening statements Monday
in George Zimmermans murder
trial are beginning their time
together in a sequestered bubble:
They wont return to their homes
for weeks, contact with family and
friends will be limited, and Internet
and phone usage is restricted.
Court officials are keeping
mum about the details of the jury
sequestration, which began this
weekend. But if past cases are any
example, the Zimmerman jurors
wont be able to tweet or blog.
Theyll read only newspapers that
have been censored of anything
dealing with the case. They will
do almost everything together as
a group. In their hotel rooms, TV
news channels will be inaccessible
and landline telephones likely will
be removed. Deputies will keep the
jurors cellphones and give them
back once a day so they can call
loved ones and friends.
Prosecutors and defense attor-
neys say the sequestration is nec-
essary to eliminate jurors expo-
sure to outside influences as they
consider whether the neighbor-
hood watch volunteer committed
murder last year when he fatally
shot 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.
After spending almost two weeks
picking a jury, the attorneys will
make opening statements Monday.
Your contact with the outside
world will be severely limited,
prosecutor Bernie de la Rionda
warned potential jurors last week.
Potential jurors looked surprised
and glum as the details sank in.
One potential juror, a woman who
wasnt picked, asked whether court
sessions would be held seven days
a week during the trial since jurors
werent going to go home. Circuit
Judge Debra Nelson said, No.
So everyone else will get to go
home on weekends but us? the
potential juror asked.
The judge answered yes and
tried to reassure potential jurors
that they wouldnt be cooped up
in hotel rooms when not at the
Seminole County Courthouse in
Sanford. Nelson explained that
their meals, transportation and
personal needs would be taken
care of.
KABUL, Afghanistan
Afghanistans government
reafrmed support Sunday
for possible talks with its
Taliban foes, but demanded
full explanations on how
the group was allowed to
raise its ag in Qatar and
display other symbols that
have stalled the U.S.-led
effort.
The ongoing dispute over
the Taliban compound in
Doha which the Afghan
government said appeared
as something akin to an
embassy in exile instead of
a political outpost when it
opened underscore the
extreme difculties in just
trying to launch dialogue
after nearly 12 years of war
in Afghanistan.
On Sunday, Taliban
spokesman, Shaheen
Suhail, reasserted the
Islamic movements dis-
may over the controversy
and made it clear that the
Taliban had made no offers
or concessions following
U.S. Secretary of State John
Kerrys warning a day ear-
lier that their newly opened
ofce could be forced to
close if the spat remained
unresolved.
The Afghan peace pro-
cess, which has made little
headway since it began sev-
eral years ago, is hobbled by
distrust among the major
players, with the Taliban
steadfastly refusing to
talk to the Afghan govern-
ment. While talks with the
Taliban remained stalled,
there are signs of increas-
ing efforts to get them back
on track. U.S.-backed talks
broke down nearly two
years ago in a dispute over
the release of ve Taliban
detainees held in U.S. cus-
tody at a military prison in
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
With Afghan presidential
elections and the withdraw-
al of most foreign combat
troops looming in 2014, the
long-stalled Afghan peace
process has taken on added
urgency. The Taliban have
refused to negotiate with
Afghan President Hamid
Karzais government, say-
ing the U.S. holds effective
control in Afghanistan, but
the Americans are hoping
to pave the way for talks
between the two sides to
begin before pulling out
most of its forces.
Militants, meanwhile,
persisted with their cam-
paign of violence.
A roadside bomb killed
seven Afghan national
policemen around midday
in the central province of
Oruzgan, said district of-
cial Faiz Mohammad.
GREECE, N.Y. No new carpet or
furniture for the home shes lived in
for 46 years. No fancy car in the drive-
way.
After being gifted a life-changing
sum after a school bus bullying epi-
sode seen around the world a year
ago, former bus monitor Karen Klein
says she really hasnt changed all that
much.
Sure, the Today show mug she
drinks coffee from reminds her of the
widespread media attention her story
brought, and the occasional stranger
wants to snap her picture.
Shes also retired, something the
69-year-old widow couldnt afford
before.
When 25-year-old Canadian Max
Sidorov was moved to take up an
online collection to send her on vaca-
tion, more than 32,000 people from
84 countries responded pledging
$703,873 in donations.
Its just the way it hits them, I
guess. I dont know. I dont know,
Klein said, still unsure of why it all
happened.
Sidorov has called it ridiculously
more than I expected.
Klein used $100,000 as seed money
for the Karen Klein Anti-Bullying
Foundation, which has promoted
its message of kindness at concerts
and through books. Most recently,
the foundation partnered with the
Moscow Ballet to raise awareness of
cyberbullying as the dance company
tours the United States and Canada.
Klein, who drove a school bus for 20
years before spending three years as
a monitor, remains as unassuming as
she was before learning rsthand how
the kindness of strangers can trump
the cruelty of four adolescent boys.
Its really amazing, Klein said at
her suburban Rochester home, still
perplexed at the outpouring unleashed
by a 10-minute cellphone video of her
being ridiculed, sworn at and threat-
ened by a group of seventh-graders
last June. They poke at her hearing
aid and call her names as she tries to
ignore them.
Unless you have something nice to
say, dont say anything at all, Klein
says calmly a few minutes in.
One boy taunts: You dont have a
family because they all killed them-
selves because they dont want to be
near you. Kleins oldest son commit-
ted suicide more than a decade ago.
The video, recorded by a fellow stu-
dent, was posted online and viewed
more than 1.4 million times on
YouTube.

Chester B.
Chrzanowski, 89, of

Community Center after
a prolonged illness.

many cake decorating
demonstrations around
the area. He attended
The Wilton School of
Cake Decorating and he
was a culinary artist. He
was an active member
of St. Mary Antiochian
Orthodox Church and

Call Chet was all you
needed to know to get
work done. He was the
beloved scoutmaster

and gave not only his
weeknights to meetings
but his vacation time to
scout camp and church
affairs. Truly a devoted
father and leader .
In 1975, he and his
wife, Ruth (Morrash),
moved to Lancaster,
where he taught bak-
ing and decorating at
Thaddeus Stevens Trade
School. He also earned
his masters degree with
night classes at Penn
State. In 1989, Chet
retired and returned
to Wilkes-Barre. He
returned to his active
role in the church and
received a Meritorious
Service Award from the
Antiochian Archdiosese.
He enjoyed fishing
and baseball, and was
an avid photographer.
Uncle Chet, as he was
known by everyone,
will be sadly missed by
all who knew and loved
him.
He is survived by his
wife of 69 years, Ruth;
sons, John and Robert;
daughter, Millie; and
grandson, Jon David
Rogers. He also has one
sister, Mary (Perich),
and several nieces and
nephews.
Chet was preceded
in death by a broth-
er, Joseph, and a sis-
ter, Bernie (Cybulski)
Ritsick.
The Chrzanowski
family wish to thank
General Hospital,
Manor Care and Celtic
Hospice for their care
and compassion, and
all of the doctors who
worked so hard to try
and bring him home.

Richardo Alonzo-Zaldivar
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON
Huge list prices charged
by hospitals are drawing
increased attention, but a
federal law meant to limit
what the most nancially
vulnerable patients can be
billed doesnt seem to be
making much difference.
A provision in President
Barack Obamas health
care overhaul says most
hospitals must charge
uninsured patients no
more than what people
with health insurance are
billed.
The goal is to protect
patients from medical
bankruptcy, a problem
that will not go away next
year when Obamas law
expands coverage for mil-
lions.
Because the Affordable
Care Act doesnt cover
everyone, many people
will remain uninsured.
Also, some who could sign
up are expected to procras-
tinate even though the law
requires virtually everyone
to have health insurance.
Consumer groups that
lobbied for a fair pricing
provision are disappoint-
ed. A university researcher
whos studied the issue
says the government
doesnt seem to be doing
much enforcement, and at
least one state, Colorado,
enacted a stricter rule
since the federal statute
passed.
Critics say the law has
several problems:
It applies only to non-
prot institutions, which
means about 40 percent
of all community hospitals
are exempted. By compari-
son, the Colorado law also
covers for-prot hospitals.
It lacks a clear formula
for hospitals to determine
which uninsured patients
qualify for nancial aid,
and how deep a discount
is reasonable. A California
law spells out such a for-
mula for that states hospi-
tals.
More than three years
after Obama signed his
law, the Internal Revenue
Service has not issued nal
rules explaining how hos-
pitals should comply with
the federal billing limits.
Delay doesnt signal a high
priority.
We still hear the same
stories about patients who
are being sent to (debt)
collection, said Jessica
Curtis, director of the hos-
pital accountability project
at Community Catalyst,
a Boston-based advocacy
group that led the push for
billing limitations. Its the
same behavior that we were
seeing before the passage of
the Affordable Care Act.
The Obama adminis-
tration responds that fair
pricing is the law of the
land, and that hospitals are
expected to comply even if
the IRS has not nalized
the rules. The agency has
begun compliance reviews,
a spokeswoman said.
The health law helps to
protect patients from hid-
den and high prices and
unreasonable collection
actions, said Treasury
Department spokeswoman
Sabrina Siddiqui.
Mark Sherman
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON The
waiting is almost over.
Sometime in the next
week or so, the Supreme
Court will announce the
outcomes in cases on
Californias Proposition 8
ban on same-sex marriage
and the federal Defense of
Marriage Act.
The federal law, known
by the shorthand DOMA,
denes marriage as the
union of a man and a
woman and therefore
keeps legally married gay
Americans from collecting
a range of federal benets
that generally are available
to married people.
The justices have a
lengthy menu of options
from which to choose.
They might come out with
rulings that are simple,
clear and dramatic. Or they
might opt for something
narrow and legalistic.
The court could strike
down dozens of state laws
that limit marriage to het-
erosexual couples, but it also
could uphold gay marriage
bans or say nothing mean-
ingful about the issue at all.
A look at potential out-
comes for the Proposition 8
case and then for the case
about DOMA:
