WILKES-BARRE The shutdown of an
apartment Friday where police said they seized
crack cocaine left property owner Adam Peters
without a monthly rental payment and angry
hes been lumped with bad landlords targeted in
the citys new one-strike ordinance for problem
properties.
The ordinance went into effect on Sept. 1 and
was used as the basis for closing the second-oor
apartment at 216 Carlisle Street for six months.
The shutdown will cost Peters $3,750 in rent,
he said. But besides the hit to his nances, he
says his reputations been damaged as a prop-
erty owner trying to renovate vacant buildings
into homes not just apartments.
Bottom line, that is not how you do it. You
do not penalize somebody who is trying to
improve your community, he said Friday after
Mayor Tom Leighton and city ofcials held
a press conference in front of the apartment
building.
They had taped a notice on the front door
to mark the closing. A rst-oor apartment
remains open and occupied.
In 2010 Peters, 26, of Red Hill and the owner
of a trucking company, bought the property at
one end of a string of row houses on the one-
way street not far from from the intersection
with Carey Avenue for $35,000. Hes put nearly
$15,000 more into xing it up, he said.
The tenant who rst rented it took off her
shoes to walk on the new rug and Peters said
she cried saying, I can walk around in this
apartment barefoot. The others places she
looked at had stained and dirty rugs, he said.
Peters property manager allowed report-
ers into the apartment. The rooms seemingly
had been ransacked, with clothes tossed on the
oor and furniture upended. A smoke alarm
chirped, signaling the battery needed to be
changed. The holder for one smoke alarm was
attached to a wall in a bedroom, but the device
was not attached. A third alarm was located at
the top of the stairs. The city condemned the
apartment on Wednesday for not having work-
ing smoke detectors.
Peters acknowledged hes an out-of-town
landlord, but his property manager from
Scranton responds to calls and checks on the
building. He also admitted that he probably
was duped by the second woman to whom he

WILKES-BARRE A
Nanticoke woman who admitted
taking more than $19,000 in stu-
dent payments for meals in the
Greater Nanticoke Area School
District was sentenced Friday to
three years probation.
Jacqueline Ruchinski, 62, of
East Church Street, was sen-
tenced on six counts of theft by
failure to make required dispo-
sition of funds.
Ruchinskis attorney, Edward
Bezdecki said his client is
remorseful, is under a doctors
care and intends to make full res-
titution within the next 45 days.
He did not elaborate on what
kind of treatment Ruchinski is
receiving.
Assistant District Attorney
Michelle Hardik said she did
not object to a probationary sen-
tence for Ruchinski, who does
not have a prior criminal record.
Its completely out of char-
acter for her, Bezdecki said.
Ruchinski did not speak before
being sentenced.
Luzerne County Judge
Michael Vough said he had great
range in sentencing Ruchinski
to either probation or a state
prison term. State prison
serves no one any good in this
situation, Vough said.
Vough sentenced Ruchinski to
the probationary term and told
her to continue with her doc-
tors treatment and to pay the
$19,427 in restitution within 45
days.
Ruchinski was in charge of
the Greater Nanticoke Area
Educational Centers cafeteria
account and collected students
breakfast and lunch payments.
When Nancy Butzek, a busi-
ness ofce secretary, asked
Ruchinski about a missing
$8 deposit slip for a students
account on April 18, Ruchinski
said she would need to nd it.
Butzek examined Ruchinskis
cafeteria report and noticed
other missing deposit slips.
Butzek confronted Ruchinski
about the missing slips and
Ruchinski replied in a panic, I
can x it. Tell me when and how
much, the complaint states.
Butzek advised Ruchinski if
she did something wrong, she
needed to talk to the schools
principal.
After telling the principal
she allegedly stole money, a
meeting was arranged with dis-
trict Superintendent Anthony
Perrone. Ruchinski told school
ofcials she pocketed $10 here
or $20 there from 2006 through
2012.
Ruchinski, a secretary in the
district for 20 years, was sus-
pended without pay after the
meeting with Perrone. Perrone
could not be reached Friday on
Ruchinskis employment status.

CORRECTION
EDWARDSVILLE
The borough has been
forced to cut back on
the stafng of shifts in
the police, re and pub-
lic works departments
because of under-per-
forming pension funds.
The police depart-
ment still will be
staffed 24 hours a day,
seven days a week,
Councilman Luke
Sowcik conrmed on
Friday. Most staff-
ing cuts for police will
occur during the day, he
said, noting there will
be at least two ofcers
working each shift dur-
ing the night.
The cuts were neces-
sary because the state
notied the borough
that the police and re
pension funds were
underfunded by about
$125,000, and the bor-
ough is required to
make up the difference
from the general fund.
Ofcials hope that some
hours can be restored if
the nancial situation
improves later this year,
he said.

said the coalition consists
of a wide range of social

Grossman, current fun-
draising director of the
Pittston Memorial Library,
said the library has taken
over the responsibilities of
administering the work of
the coalition.
Grossman said a
Grandparents Raising
Grandchildren support
group will hold its rst of-
cial meeting at noon Sept.
30 at the Pittston library.
According to the coali-
tion, more than 165,000
children in Pennsylvania
are being raised in house-
holds headed by grandpar-
ents.
Nelson said he and his
wife adopted their grand-
sons in 2011 to keep the
family together. He said
his daughter, Kristen,
remains in her sons lives
as she struggles to rebuild
her life.
If we didnt adopt them,
they would have been
placed in foster care and
we might never have seen
them again, Nelson said.
So now my wife and I nd
ourselves helping them
with homework, tee-ball
and everything else. Our
vacations include them.
A retired corrections
ofcer, Nelson worked
at the State Correctional
Institution at Dallas. His
wife is retired from Penn
State University.
But we did what was
best for the kids. They
have a strong home and
school environment, he
said. And my daughter
has the chance to put her
life back together.
According to the
American Association
for Marriage and Family
Therapy, there are 2.4
million grandparents rais-
ing their grandchildren in
the United States. Rogers
said there are eight main
reasons why: parental
substance abuse, parental
abuse/neglect, incarcera-
tion of parents, mental
and/or physical illness,
teen pregnancy, abandon-
ment, divorce and death.
In Pennsylvania, said
Rogers, 81,112 children
live in homes where their
grandparents are respon-
sible for their care. Of
that number, Rogers said
30,656 have no parents
living in the home with
their children. About 65
percent of the households
are white/non-Hispanic,
25 percent black/African
American, 8 percent
Hispanic/Latino and 2
percent Asian, she said.
Rogers said 68 percent
of grandparents raising
their grandchildren are
under the age of 60 and
19 percent are living in
poverty. Every parent
deserves every opportu-
nity to make things right,
she said. However, the
childs best interests must
always be assured.
Rogers faces tough deci-
sions every day on cus-
tody of children, she said.
She decides each case by
looking through the eyes
of the children, she said.
Rogers was elected
in 2011 and has been
assigned to Family Court.
She has handled numer-
ous adoption petitions and
custody-visitation issues
involving grandparents
raising grandchildren.
Rogers praised the
grandparents for their
work and dedication to
their grandchildren.
You are an inspiration
to your grandchildren,
she said.
Saba said: We are
pleased to once again
sponsor this event for a
population that often is
neglected and forgotten.
The coalition and this
conference help so many
grandparents and rela-
tive caregivers meet their
responsibilities the sec-
ond time around.
GRANDPARENTS RAISING GRANDCHILDREN
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services ofers tips for grandparents raising their
grandchildren:
Set up a daily routine of mealtimes, bedtime and other activities so that the children have some
predictability in their lives.
Help your grandchildren to feel that they arehome by making roomfor themand their belongings.
Your home needs to be welcoming, safe and child-friendly.
Work on communication skills. Talk to your grandchildren and make sure that the children knowthat
they can always talk to you.
Practice positive discipline that emphasizes education, not punishment, and that rewards
good behavior with praise. Set up a fewrules, explain the rules to the children and enforce them
consistently.
Find shared activities. It helps to fnd things that you can do with your grandchildren to nurture your
relationship and to make themfeel secure and happy in their newhome.
Read. Children love to hear stories, and even older children might surprise you by sitting quietly as
you read aloud. Children who see you read have a better chance of becoming readers themselves.
Get computer savvy. If you dont have a computer, use the one at the public library. Youll fnd lots of
things that you and your grandchildren can do on the computer, fromgames to school research.
Join a group. There are many support groups for grandparents raising grandchildren, and a number
of these groups also provide activities for the children.
Take up a sport or other outdoor activity. Children of all ages need to be active. Physical activity
might help your grandchildren feel better and develop a healthy lifestyle, and it can be an important
stress reliever for you.
Take care of yourself. If youre feeling stressed, overwhelmed and unhappy, you are not going to be
able to provide the best care for your grandchildren.
Take a break. You need some time to relax. Look for a trusted adult who can babysit or take over
while youre out.
Take a parenting class. Aclass might help you to feel more comfortable with your status as a
caregiver for young children. It will also provide resources in the formof your teacher and the other
students in the class.
Learn to sayno.You dont have time to do everything. Learn to make priorities and eliminate the
unnecessary tasks in your life.

Deal includes sharing
of insurance premiums
MARK GUYDISH
mguydish@timesleader.com
NANTICOKE Greater
Nanticoke Area teachers and
the School Board quietly
hammered out and approved
a ve-year contract that will
have teachers paying a per-
centage of their health insur-
ance premiums in 2015-16,
District negotiator Attorney
Jack Dean said.
The contract also keeps
teachers at their current step
for the rst two years, deny-
ing many of them raises built
into the contract annually for
the rst 19 years with the dis-
trict. The average step raise
is 1.5 percent, Dean said.
Teachers are paid in a
step/column system, get-
ting raises every year for a
set number of years and for
increased education beyond
a bachelors degree based on
number of credits earned.
The number of steps and
columns vary from district
to district, and the percent-
age of the raise can vary from
step to step and column to
column within a district.
Greater Nanticokes matrix
has a total of 20 steps and
nine columns.
In exchange for the step
freeze, teachers will get at
raises of $1,260 each of the
rst two years. After the two
years, they will resume climb-
ing the steps from the same
spot they were at the start of
the freeze. So a teacher who
is on step 10 this year will
remain there for two more
years, then bump up to step
11 in the third year of the
contract.
The contract calls for an
average raise of 2.99 percent
each of the last two years,
Dean said, noting that half
of that is already built into
the step system, so the deal
essentially gives an addi-
tional raise of almost 1.5 per-
cent above the existing pay
matrix.
The premium sharing, still
a rarity in area teacher con-
tracts, begins with teachers
paying 1.5 percent of their
premium in 2015-16. The
rate goes up to 2 percent for
the last two years of the con-
tract.
Teachers had already
agreed to increased deduct-
ibles and co-pays in the last
contract, which ran from
2010 through this summer.
The two sides approved
the contract Thursday night,
but minor wording issues are
still being worked out, so the
documents are not yet public,
Dean said.
Negotiations were primar-
ily done directly between
teams set up by the board
and the union, Dean said.
The two sides would come
to an agreement and then ask
Dean and his union counter-
part, Virginia Cowley of the
Pennsylvania State Education
Association Northeast
Region ofce, to hammer out
language details.
The board committee and
the professional staff com-
mittee were really the driving
forces, Dean said. They did
a nice job.
Cowley agreed. They
were able to sit across the
table and come up with an
agreement that is fair to the
teachers and the taxpayers,
Cowley said.

Tax cut brewing
for beer makers?
U.S. Sen. Bob Casey, D-Scranton,
a member of the Senate Finance
Committee, pushed for passage of
legislation that would cut taxes for
small breweries during a stop at
Susquehanna Brewing Co.
Caseys bill, The Small Brewer
Reinvestment and Expanding
Workforce Act,
would help small
breweries by cutting
the excise taxes they
pay.
Caseys tax cut
plan would help the
breweries compete
with larger com-
panies and has the
potential to create jobs and add to
Northeastern Pennsylvanias econo-
my, he said.
Brewers generally pay an $18
excise tax on each barrel brewed
one barrel is 31 gallons. Small
brewers those that brew fewer
than 2 million barrels a year pay
a reduced excise tax of $7 per barrel
for the rst 60,000 barrels of beer
they brew each year.
The bill would reduce the excise
tax applicable to brewers producing
up to 6 million barrels per year in
two ways, Casey said.
First, the tax rate applicable to the
rst 60,000 barrels would be reduced
to $3.50 per barrel. Second, the tax
rate on additional barrels below 2
million per year would be reduced to
$16.

GNAteachers, board forge contract
WVWs
Gill says
report
is wrong
MARK GUYDISH
mguydish@timesleader.com
KINGSTON Wyoming Valley
West School Board Member attor-
ney John Gill contends that while
the district did lose money by with-
drawing from the West Side Career
and Technology Center, the board
wasnt wasting more than $1.1
million, as a report from the state
auditor generals ofce claimed.
The audit report noted when
the district refused to sign a let-
ter of agreement with the center it
withdrew from the Joint Operating
Committee that runs the center. As
a result, the district paid a higher
non-member tuition per pupil until
it decided to sign the letter two
years later. The total extra cost was
$1.15 million.
Gill said the math is probably
right, but argued that the money
didnt just disappear. That money
went into a growing reserve that
was at the center when we went
back, he said. As that money is
used, it benets our students.
Gill, who is currently chairman of
the JOC, also noted that the school
changed its admission policies after
Wyoming Valley West withdrew,
and that prompted a sharp increase
in enrollment, which further drove
up costs for the district as more stu-
dents enrolled at the center.
The auditor generals decision
not to recommend any punitive
action or attempt to recoup the
money also supports the argument
that it wasnt wasted, Gill said. The
matter was raised in a compli-
ance audit that otherwise found
no problems with Valley Wests
books for the years reviewed, from
November 2009 to November 2012.
The state does such audits periodi-
cally to assure school districts are
meeting state and federal laws.
The issue was raised in the audit
report as an observation that was
unrelated to compliance. While
the auditor generals ofce does
not take action itself when it nds
noncompliance issues in a district,
it can and does make recommend
actions to other state ofces, such
as the department of education or
attorney general.
The audit report does recom-
mend the district ensure that
decisions about increasing expen-
ditures are only made after a thor-
ough examination of the potential
consequences and Consider the
taxpayers expectations that their
money will be used wisely.
West Side Administrative
Director Nancy Tkatch, who
assumed that post after Valley
Wests withdrawal and return to
the JOC, said the centers business
manager was not available Friday
and that she could not verify Gills
argument about what happened to
the $1.1 million, but she said it is
logical that it would have ultimately
beneted Valley West students.
I think the lesson learned is that
when you have articles of agree-
ment in place for a career and tech-
nology center its vital to follow
what they say, Tkatch said. Those
articles have been approved by the
state.

Fundraising season started strong this week for the United Way of Wyoming Valley. A campaign kickoff picnic for labor leaders was

Two charged in money order fraud
EDWARD LEWIS
elewis@timesleader.com
WILKES-BARRE City
police allege Rohey-Tanisha
Njie admitted to selling two
$500 money orders for $20
while employed as a clerk
at Turkey Hill because her
ex-boyfriend strong-armed
her, according to charges
led on Friday.
Njies boyfriend, Shamar
M. Grayson, needed cash to
pay child support, police say.
Njie, 18, of Sterling Street,
Wilkes-Barre, and Grayson,
23, of Patterson, N.J., were
arraigned by District Judge
Rick Cronauer on criminal
conspiracy and access device
fraud. Njie was also charged
with false reports to law
enforcement and unsworn
falsication and Grayson
with theft.
They were released on
$5,000 unsecured bail each.
According to the criminal
complaints: The store man-
ager at Turkey Hill on Carey
Avenue reported on Aug.
4 that Njie sold two $500
money orders for $20 the day
before. When questioned by
police, Njie allegedly claimed
her ex-boyfriend strong-
armed her into issuing the
two money orders because
he threatened to assault her
and her unborn child if she
failed to do so, the com-
plaints state.
Police were unable to iden-
tify Njies boyfriend.
When police reviewed
the Aug. 3 recordings of the
stores surveillance system,
Ofcer James Conmy recog-
nized the man as Grayson,
according to the complaints.
Conmy went to Sterling
Street and found Njie sitting
on the front porch. Grayson
allegedly admitted to receiv-
ing the two money orders to
pay child support.
Njie claimed they only
attempted to cash one of the
money orders, as her credit
union withdrew $500 from
her account when Turkey
Hill placed a stop payment
on the money orders, the
complaints state.
Preliminary hearings are
scheduled on Oct. 1.

WILKES-BARRE A
Luzerne County judge said
Friday hell soon decide
on a request by a former
county sheriff to dismiss a
lawsuit surrounding state-
ments he made that were
allegedly defamatory.
Judge Michael Vough
heard from attorneys
Tom Marsilio, who rep-
resents George Nipper
Nowakowski who led the
original suit in 2009, and
Donald Brobst, who repre-
sents former county sheriff
Michael Savokinas.
In the suit, Nowakowski
alleges statements
Savokinas made were
defamatory and par-
ticularly humiliating
and embarrassing for
an individual who has
spent his entire career in
law enforcement. The
statements appeared in
a Times Leader article
about marijuana that was
found in a county sheriffs
vehicle.
The suit claims
Savokinas knew his state-
ments were false, mali-
cious and made with
reckless disregard for the
truth.
Marsilio originally led
a lawsuit in 2009 against
Savokinas as county sher-
iff, but dropped that suit
and led a new one in
2010 against Savokinas,
who had resigned from
his position in September
2009.
Savokinas attorney
argued the most recent
suit should be dismissed
because it was led outside
the statute of limitation
and long after Savokinas
allegedly made the com-
ments.
Brobst also argued
Savokinas is protected
by state law in the suit
because he made the com-
ments while serving in
an ofcial capacity as
county sheriff even if
he is sued as an individ-
ual in the newest ling.
Brobst said it is obvious
Savokinas made the state-
ments about his job as a
sheriff and while he was
serving as sheriff.
Judge to rule soon in suit involving ex-sherif

A trial scheduled
to begin Monday for
an 81-year-old woman
charged with poisoning
her sons girlfriend has
been rescheduled for
October.
Helen Galli, of
Wyoming, faces three
charges in the case in
which prosecutors say
she laced fruit juice
with antifreeze that
was consumed by Dawn

Simyan was dating
Gallis son, Victor, at the
time. Investigators said
Simyan suffered acute
kidney failure.
Gallis attorney,

WILKES-BARRE
A man scheduled to
stand trial in November
on charges he poured

March 2012 was denied
a bail reduction Friday.
Jeremiah Hightower,
41, of Roosevelt Street,
Edwardsville, appeared
before Luzerne County
Judge Michael Vough
where he requested a
reduced bail amount
to be able to work and
provide for his family as
well as prepare for his
defense.
According to court
papers, on March 15,
2012, Kim Malesinski
told police Hightower
had been in contact
with her earlier in the
day, asking her to have
sex. When she refused,
Hightower took her cell-
phone and left the apart-
ment.
When Hightower
returned, Malesinski,
Mallory Corcoran and
John DePrimo locked
themselves in a bedroom
in Malesinskis apart-
ment. Malesinski told
police Hightower left the
bedroom and Corcoran
called 911. Hightower
allegedly returned to
the bedroom, dousing
the three with bleach
and ammonia, which
burned their eyes and
skin. Malesinski said

a drinking glass and

Vough said he would

$100,000 bail amount
due to the seriousness of
the charges.

HARRISBURG Five peo-
ple from Luzerne County were
among the 134 licensed or com-
missioned professionals and
organizations that received dis-
ciplinary actions in August from
the Pennsylvania Department of
State.
They were:
Froilan Fabian of West
Hazleton was suspended for
failing to pay a civil penalty
imposed by the Board of Barber
Examiners in June.
Feroz A. Sheikh of Mountain
Top was indefinitely suspended
based upon his failure to comply
with an order by the Board of
Medicine in June.
Angela Jean Breznak of
Hazleton was suspended for
a period of six months by the
Board of Notaries Public, but
it was stayed in favor of proba-
tion. She was ordered to success-
fully complete a six-hour notary
practice and procedure course
and pay a $250 civil penalty and
probation assessment fees in the
amount of $300 for failing to
keep or maintain a copy of the
drivers license of the person
who appeared before her.
Nicole M. Czech of Mountain
Top was indefinitely suspended
by the Board of Nursing, but
it was stayed in favor of proba-
tion. She was determined to be
unable to practice the profession
with reasonable skill and safety
to patients by reason of mental
or physical illness or condition
or physiological or psychological
dependence upon alcohol, hal-
lucinogenic or narcotic drugs or
other drugs which tend to impair
judgment or coordination.
Jeff Fremont of Forty Fort
was ordered by the Board of
Psychology to pay a $3,000 civil
penalty and $1,453 for the costs
of investigation. His license was
placed on probation for no less
than nine months, and he will be
required to take and complete
a minimum of 20 contact hours
of remedial education in patient
record keeping and child custody
law and ethics.
He failed to maintain profes-
sional records used in a child
custody evaluation report, failed
to create and maintain profes-
sional records in accordance
with ethical and legal obliga-
tions, displayed gross incompe-
tence, negligence, or misconduct
in carrying on the practice of
psychology, failed to conform to
the standards of acceptable and
prevailing psychological practice
when he destroyed and/or failed
to maintain records, and failed
to focus his evaluation on parent-
ing capacity, the psychological
and developmental needs of the
child, and the resulting fit.
KINGSTON
Wyoming Valley West
teacher union President
Linda Houck contends
School Board President
Gordon Dussinger was
wrong when he told a
crowd at Wednesdays
board meeting that no
action could be taken
regarding the middle
school librarian position
until a union grievance on
the matter is settled.
Dussinger made the
comment after resident
Mike Harper presented a
petition with more than
800 signatures asking the
position be reinstated.
The board eliminated
the position last month
and transferred librarian
Joann Prushinski to split
her time among three ele-
mentary schools.
The union
launched a griev-
ance contending
that, by both state
law and contract,
such a move had
to be announced
in December.
But on Friday
Houck said the
board can take
action on the posi-
tion at any time during
the grievance process,
which she said has five
steps, working the issue
through the district
hierarchy from building
principal to superinten-
dent to school board. If
it is not resolved in any
of those discussions, the
union can take the matter
to an arbitrator.
Put simply, the dis-
trict always has the
power to resolve the situ-
ation before it pro-
gresses to the next
level of authority;
in this case, if the
Superintendent or
School Board said
that the District
will maintain the
Middle School
library program
and hire an ele-
mentary librari-
an, the union would sim-
ply drop the grievance,
Houck wrote in an email.
The union also is griev-
ing a board decision to
curtail the elementary
music program, which
until this year had been
taught full-time by
Houck. In both cases the
union does not dispute
the boards right to make
the changes, but argues
they had to be announced
by the end of December
last year, and were not.
WVWunion head says board
can make decision on librarian

GENEVA Prospects
for restarting peace talks in
Syrias civil war depend on
the outcome of negotiations
for the Syrian government to
give up its chemical weapons,
U.S. Secretary of State John
Kerry and Russian Foreign
Minister Sergey Lavrov said
Friday as meetings on the
arsenal lurched into a second
day.
Kerry and Lavrov met with
U.N.-Arab League envoy
Lakhdar Brahimi about the
potential for a new Geneva
peace conference, while a
short distance away American
and Russian chemical weap-
ons experts were huddled in
a hotel to haggle over techni-
cal details critical to a deal on
chemical weapons.
In the background was the
lingering threat of a limited
U.S. military strike against
Syria if President Bashar
Assad doesnt hand over his
chemical weapons in time.
Brahimi acknowledged the
high stakes. He told Kerry
and Lavrov that their chemi-
cal weapons negotiation is
extremely important in itself
and for itself, but it is also
extremely important for us
who are working with you on
trying to bring together the
Geneva conference success-
fully.
More than 100,000 people
have been killed in two years
of civil war. On Friday the
international group Human
Rights Watch accused the
Syrian government and mili-
tias ghting on its side of
carrying out summary execu-
tions that killed at least 248
people in two towns in May.
Kerry, anked by Lavrov
and Brahimi, told reporters
after an hourlong meeting
that the chances for a second
peace conference in Geneva
will require success rst with
the chemical weapons talks,
which have been construc-
tive so far.
I will say on behalf of the
United States that President
(Barack) Obama is deeply
committed to a negotiated
solution with respect to Syria,
and we know that Russia is
likewise. We are working hard
to nd the common ground to
be able to make that happen,
Kerry said.
We discussed some of the
homework that we both need
to do, he added.
Kerry said they agreed to
meet around Sept. 28 on the
sidelines of the annual U.N.
General Assembly high-level
meetings in New York.
But, he said, the future of
peace negotiations depends
on the outcome of the weap-
ons talks.
We are committed to try to
work together, beginning with
this initiative on the chemical
weapons, in hopes that those
efforts could pay off and bring
peace and stability to a war-
torn part of the world, he
added.
Brahimi also met privately
with Kerry at a Geneva hotel
on Thursday to explore ways
to resume international nego-
tiations last held in Geneva
in June 2012 aimed at ending
the Syrian civil war.
CAIRO
Al-Qaida boss:
Attack the US
Al-Qaidas leader on Friday marked the
anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks
by calling on Muslims to strike inside the
United States, with big attacks or small,
using any opportunity they can to bleed
America nancially.
In an audio message released two days
after the 12th anniversary of the attacks,
Ayman al-Zawahri said America is not a
mythic power and that the mujahedeen
Islamic holy warriors can defeat it
with attacks on its own soil.
Al-Zawahri, the successor to Osama
bin Laden, used the anniversary to
argue that the United States can be
defeated by targeting its economy. At
the same time, he also addressed the
ongoing upheaval in the Arab world.
Pointing to a power struggle going
on within the rebellion against Syrias
regime, he warned jihadi ghters in
that countrys civil war not compro-
mise with more secular or moderate
rebel factions, who he said would even-
tually turn against the al-Qaida-linked
radicals.
TEHRAN, IRAN
Iran claims cuts
to uranium stores
Iran signicantly reduced its stockpile
of 20 percent-enriched uranium by con-
verting it to reactor fuel, a senior ofcial
said, an announcement that appears to be
a bid to ease international concerns over
its nuclear program.
The West remains concerned over
Irans continuing production of 20 per-
cent uranium, which is enriched to a
higher level than that used to fuel most
energy reactors and is closer to the 90
percent needed for a warhead. The U.S.
and its allies demand Iran halt all enrich-
ment, which Tehran rejects.
The late Thursday announcement,
from the government of moderate
President Hasan Rouhani, appeared to be
a signal to ease Western worries.
NEWYORK
Bloomberg wont
endorse candidate
Michael Bloomberg said Friday he
wont endorse a candidate for New York
City mayor, keeping his power and his
wallet on the sidelines of the hotly con-
tested race to succeed him.
Thats a blow to Republican nominee
Joe Lhota, an admirer of Bloombergs pol-
icies who wanted his backing in hopes of
thwarting the rise of the mayors frequent
antagonist, Democratic front-runner Bill
de Blasio.
I dont want to do anything that
complicates it for the next mayor and
thats one of the reasons I wont make
an endorsement in the race, Bloomberg
said during his weekly appearance on
John Gamblings show on WOR Radio.

Receipt leads cops

Police trying to gure out who egged

Livingston Police Chief Darren Raney

Rescued from Colorado flood waters
Will Pitner is rescued by emergency workers
Friday after a night trapped sheltering outside
on high ground above his home at the base of
Boulder Canyon, Colo., as it filled with water
after days of record rain and flooding. Flash
flooding in the state has left at least three
people dead and the widespread high waters
have hampered emergency workers access
to affected communities as heavy rains ham-
mered northern Colorado.

nuclear
spending
bloated
LOS ALAMOS, N.M. At Los
Alamos National Laboratory, a
seven-year, $213 million upgrade
to the security system that pro-
tects the labs most sensitive
nuclear bomb-making facilities
doesnt work. Those same facili-
ties, which sit atop a fault line,
remain susceptible to collapse
and dangerous radiation releases,
despite millions more spent on
improvement plans.
In Tennessee, the price tag for
a new uranium processing facil-
ity has grown nearly sevenfold in
eight years to upward of $6 billion
because of problems that include
a redesign to raise the roof. And
the estimated cost of an ongoing
effort to refurbish 400 of the coun-
trys B61 bombs has grown from
$1.5 billion to $10 billion.
Virtually every major proj-
ect under the National Nuclear
Security Administrations over-
sight is behind schedule and over
budget the result, watchdogs
and government auditors say, of
years of lax accountability and
nearly automatic annual budget
increases for the agency.
The NNSA has racked up $16
billion in cost overruns on 10
major projects that are a combined
38 years behind schedule, the
U.S. Government Accountability
Ofce reports. Other projects
have been cancelled or suspend-
ed, despite hundreds of millions
of dollars already spent, because
they grew too bloated.
Advocates say spending increas-
es are necessary to keep the
nations nuclear arsenal operating
and safe, and to continue cutting-
edge research at the nations nucle-
ar labs. But critics say the nuclear
program run largely by private
contractors and overseen by the
NNSA, an arm of the U.S. Energy
Department has turned into a
massive jobs program with dupli-
cative functions.
The post-Cold War nuclear
warhead complex has become
a gigantic self-licking ice cream
cone for contractors, said Greg
Mello of the Los Alamos Study
Group, a watchdog organization.
U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill,
chairwoman of the Senate
Homeland Security nancial and
contracting oversight subcom-
mittee, said a key problem is the
Energy Departments reliance on
private contractors to carry out its
mission.
The retired head of one of those
contractors, former Lockheed
Martin CEO Norman Augustine,
told Congress this spring that the
absence of day-to-day accountabil-
ity and an ineffectual structure at
the NNSApose a national security
risk. He described a pervasive
culture of tolerating the intoler-
able and accepting the unaccept-
able.

Seaside Park, Seaside Heights lose four blocks of recently restored businesses
SEASIDE PARK, N.J. They were
the kind of places that made for family
memories of french fries and ice cream,
but also created some raucous reality
TV, like the time Snooki was laid out by
a barroom sucker punch.
They included an arcade where New
Jerseys governor played Skee Ball with
his wife and kids, and a shop where
he ate pizza (at least before his recent
weight-loss surgery). There were three
frozen custard shacks, games of chance,
and stores where tourists could buy
naughty T-shirts.
And now theyre gone, reduced to
smoldering ruins by a spectacular re
that engulfed more than four blocks of
a Jersey shore boardwalk that had been
rebuilt only ve months ago after being
destroyed by Superstorm Sandy.
Were wiped out again. Its just
unimaginable, said Daniel Shauger,
manager of Funtown Arcade, which
reopened June 1 and struggled all
summer after Sandys oodwaters
ruined game machines and other equip-
ment.
The cause of Thursdays blaze was
under investigation, though prosecutors
said they had seen no evidence it was
suspicious.
Sending giant orange and red re-
balls rolling 50 feet into the sky, the re
brought a painful sense of deja vu to the
side-by-side communities of Seaside
Park and Seaside Heights, which rely on
the boardwalk and beach for their eco-
nomic survival.
Three police ofcers leaving the re
scene were injured Friday morning when
they fell from an emergency vehicle; two
suffered head injuries. Their injuries
were not believed to be life-threatening.
Gov. Chris Christie, as he did just after
the Oct. 29 storm, vowed the two towns
would rebuild.
I will not permit all the work weve
done over the last 10 months to be
diminished or destroyed by what hap-
pened last night, he said, standing
across the street from a still-smoldering
pizza shop and a gutted arcade that he
used to patronize with his family.
Christie said about 30 businesses
were destroyed, although authorities in
the two towns said Thursday night more
than 50 businesses had been wrecked,
including 32 in Seaside Park and more
than 20 in Seaside Heights.
Paul Schneider, who owns three small
boardwalk stands, was stunned.
Everythings gone. I cant believe this
is happening again, said Schneider, who
had to rip out damaged electrical wiring
and replace sodden merchandise after
Sandy.
Seaside Park ofcials began planning
Friday morning to rebuild their part
of the boardwalk, at the southern end,
where the re began near a frozen cus-
tard stand. Most of the boardwalk shared
by the two towns was still intact.

A massive fire that burned a large portion of New Jerseys Seaside Park boardwalk on Thursday night claimed at least 30 businesses. Officials
began planning Friday to rebuild.

Judge sentences men to gallows in gang rape murder
NEW DELHI An Indian
court Friday sentenced to
death four men for the gang
rape and murder of a young
New Delhi woman, ordering
them to the gallows for a bru-
tal attack that riveted India,
where it became a symbol of
the widespread mistreatment
of women and the govern-
ments inability to deal with
crime.
Issuing his decision, Judge
Yogesh Khanna said the attack
shocked the collective con-
science of India. In these
times, when crime against
women is on the rise, the
courts cannot turn a blind
eye toward such gruesome
crimes.
After the death sentence,
the wail of one of the four men,
20-year-old Vinay Sharma,
lled the tiny courtroom.
Sharma, an assistant at a gym,
then broke down in sobs.
As Khanna walked from his
bench, defense lawyer A.P.
Singh, who has defended all
four men at various times,
began to shout at him: This
is not the victory of truth. But
it is the defeat of justice.
Like all death sentences,
Khannas order must be con-
rmed by Indias High Court.
The men can appeal their
case to the High Court, as
well as to the Supreme Court,
and ask the president for
clemency.
The victims family, along
with numerous politicians
and government ofcials,
had long called for the men
to be executed. The family
was in the courtroom as the
sentence was announced. I
am very happy our girl has
got justice, said the victims
father, who cannot be named
under Indian laws guarding
his daughters identity as a
rape victim.

The defensive unit gave
Wilkes ts last year in
similar situations as the
Colonels entered with one
of the top rushing games
in the MAC and Lycoming
entered with the best rush-
ing defense. That weighed
heavily in Lycomings favor.
This time around, its a
challenge Sheptock is antic-
ipating.
Im looking forward
to the challenge, he said.
Weve been working very
hard. I think our kids are
ready for the challenge. Im
denitely looking to see if
we made some strides in the
offseason, which we believe
we have. But you have to go
out there and prove it.
Wilkes (1-0, 0-0) at
Lycoming (0-1, 0-0)
When: 1 p.m. today
at David Person Field,
Williamsport
Last Week: Wilkes
defeated Morrisville State
41-26, while Lycoming lost
to Brockport 30-2
Last meeting: The
Warriors dominated
Wilkes last season win-
ning 38-7. Lycoming has
won the last two times in
the series following three
straight wins by Wilkes.
Wilkes player to watch:
Freshman wide receiver
David Claybrook, who had
just two receptions for 19
yards in last weeks vic-
tory, but will have to be tar-
geted more often this week
against a notorious stingy
Lycoming defense.
Lycoming player to
watch: Senior linebacker
Kabongo Bukasa is the
reigning MAC Defensive
Player of the Year after rack-
ing up 70 tackles, one sack,
four pass break-ups and
three interceptions in help-
ing the Warriors to the best
defense in the MAC a year
ago allowing just 12.4 points
per game. He will be making
his season debut today.
Colonels team lead-
ers: RB Paul Martin 78
yards, 3 TD; QB Tyler
Bernsten 103 yards, 1 TD,
2int; TE Drew Devitt 2
rec, 62 yards, TD; LB Tate
Moore-Jacobs 14 tackles;
DB Omar Richardson,
D.J. Shuttleworth 1int; DL
Rob Houseknecht 1 sack.
Warriors team leaders:
RB Craig Needhammer 87
yards; QB Tyler Jenny 144
yards, 0TD, 2int; WR Matt
Atkinson 9 rec, 79 yards;
LB Tyler Denike 11 tackles;
DT Dwight Hentz 1 sack;
DB Tanner Troutman, Mike
Ciotti 1 int.
Wilkes will win if: Its
passing can get going and
compliment the running
game. The Warriors have a
very stingy rush defense so
being able to throw will go
a long way.
Lycoming will win if:
Three starters returning to
the lineup on defense are the
difference-makers and show
that last weeks game was a
uke and the unit is still top-
notch.
What to know: Wilkes
coach Frank Sheptock has
a 9-8 career record against
Lycoming, while Warriors
coach Mike Clark is 2-3
against the Colonels.

futures of both men, ultimately lead-
ing them to opposing sidelines for
tonights game at Beaver Stadium.
Not that either coach is going to
get too sentimental about it.
This is UCF-Penn State, OLeary
said. This is not myself-himself. I
have enough (former assistants) in
coaching now that if I worried about
stuff like that, I wouldnt be able to
coach. As it stands, OLeary is the
Lions biggest obstacle to hitting
that next level of national recogni-
tion. In his 10th season with the
Knights, he has helped build the
program into a competitive one,
a far cry from the 0-11 squad that
came to Beaver Stadium in 2004,
OLearys rst season.
Penn State elded one of it worst
offensive teams ever that season,
nishing 4-7. But the Lions had no
issue with UCF that season, win-
ning 37-13.
Since then, the Knights have hit
10 wins or more three times and
picked up an invitation to join the
remnants of the old Big East
now dubbed the American Athletic
Conference this season.
To open 2013, they won both of
their games by a combined score of
76-7 and did so without committing
a turnover. But its tough to gauge
just how good these Knights are
because their opponents were Akron
and Florida International, two of the
countrys weakest programs.
Whats much easier to say is that
UCF has one of the toughest drop-
back passers that Penn State will
see all year in 6-foot-4 junior Blake
Bortles.
Hes a pro prospect, said
OBrien, who knows a little some-
thing about the subject. Its hard
to totally stop a guy like that, but
youve got to try to contain him.
Hes very, very good.
The Big Tens best quarterbacks,
like Ohio States Braxton Miller, are
guys who can open things up down-
eld with a scramble. While Bortles
prefers to work out of the pocket, he
has shown an ability to evade the
pass rush in the early going, and its
something the Lions are watching
out for.
Hes denitely a big guy, line-
backer Glenn Carson said. He also
has a good ability to run for his big
frame. Hes going to be guy thats
tough to take down. Hes got a pret-
ty good arm and he can run a little
bit. Denitely one of the best QBs
weve faced in awhile.
the early stages of his career.
Now, Scuderi enjoys the fact that
he can do the same for this years
rst-timers.
You just try to be a decent player
and a nice person, he said.
After he spent four years playing
in college, Joe Vitale came to his rst
NHL camp in 2009 as he began his
rookie season with the Pittsburgh
organization. He came into camp
wide-eyed at all the NHL talent that
surrounded him, but Vitale quickly
felt welcome thanks to some atten-
tion from Pittsburghs top star.
Crosby knew my name and asked
how my summer went. I was a rook-
ie and he didnt need to pull me
aside and chat with me, but he did,
Vitale said. You look at the caliber
of guys here and the fact they did
that for me is something you try to
pay forward.
Crosby was glad to hear that Vitale
remembered that rst meeting years
ago and is happy to see him doing
the same thing for todays rst-time
camp participants.
Thats whats happening now to
players like Uher and Farnham.
During Fridays scrimmage, veteran
Tanner Glass gave Farnham a pat
with his stick after he nearly con-
nected on a wrist shot.
For Farnham a player who
began last season in Hamiltons
training camp without a contract
the small gesture meant a lot.
All the veteran guys have been
great to us and it denitely helps
ease the transition into an NHL
training camp, he said. You can
learn a lot from the guys who have
been here before.
Around the room
Jayson Megna has been practic-
ing with Group B in training camp.
Its a list stockpiled with NHL tal-
ent such as Crosby, Scuderi, Chris
Kunitz and Pascal Dupuis. Sid and
that whole line are on a whole other
level. Its pretty incredible getting to
watch them, Megna said. Im glad
Im not playing against them or my
plus-minus would not be looking so
hot right now.
Goaltender Jeff Zatkoff said he
wont be affected by the new rule
change shortening the length of
leg pads for the upcoming season.
Zatkoff said he didnt wear over-
sized pads to begin with so the
change wont be an issue. As far as
if the shorter leg pads will result in
more fve-hole goals, Zatkoff said,
Well see. I think theres ways
around it they havent xed yet.
Guys could go for bigger knee pads.
As Beau Bennett prepares to
enter his rst full NHL season, he
has already entrenched himself with
his Pittsburgh Penguin teammates.
During Fridays scrimmage he skat-
ed on a line with Evgeni Malkin and
James Neal, and in the locker room
Bennett has formed a bond with
Vitale. The two have locker stalls
next to each other and last season
they shared the same row on the
airplane while ying to road games.
We shadow each other. With
being young and still trying to nd
your way in this league, there can be
some down days, Vitale said.
We have each others backs.
Bennet said the friendship grew
last season when both he and Vitale
bounced in and out of the lineup.
They supported each other during
the trying time, he said, and Vitale
has also impressed him off the ice
as well.
Hes such a good guy with how
he treats everyone away from the
rink. He has a family, hes a dad and
hes someone to look up to, Bennett
said. If I can be half the man as he
is, Id be happy.
During Fridays scrimmage,
the Black team defeated the White
squad 4-1. Kris Letang had two
goals while Sidney Crosby and
Pascal Dupuis had the other tallies.
Tryout Jean-Sebastien Dea scored
for the White team.

France, Lithuania and
Serbia have each advanced
to the quarternals of the
European basketball cham-
pionship, with France and
Lithuania winning their
games Friday and Serbia
moving on despite a loss to
Ukraine.
France cruised past
Latvia 102-91 and
Lithuania beat Belgium
86-67. Frances victory also
cleared the way for Serbia
and Lithuania to advance.
Pooh Jeter carried
Ukraine to an 82-75 victo-
ry over Serbia and revived
his teams hopes of also
making the quarternals,
depending on the results
of the nal day of second-
round play Saturday. The
American-born point
guard scored 20 points and
made several key baskets
with the game on the line
as Ukraine bounced back
from a 34-point loss to
Latvia.
The team effort was
what won the game for
us, said Jeter, the broth-
er of American sprinter
Carmelita Jeter. Latvia
really punched us and
caught us off-balance.
But going against a pow-
erhouse like Serbia we
knew that we could win
it. Everybody else doubted
us. Everybody else count-
ed us out. But we as a team
believed that we could get
this win.
Maxym Korniyenko
added 21 points and eight
rebounds for Ukraine.
Serbia improved to 3-1,
while Ukraine moved to
2-2. The Serbs will next
play France and Ukraine
meets Lithuania in their
nal second-round games.
Latvia takes on Belgium
and needs to win to have
a chance of advancing.
France is also 3-1 and
Latvia is 2-2.
Alexis Ajinca scored 25
points for France, which
led by as many as 22 before
slowing down in the nal
quarter, allowing Latvia to
pull within nine. But San
Antonio Spurs star Tony
Parker nished with 23
points to help France slow
the rally, while Nicolas
Batum of the Portland
Trail Blazers added 19
points and 10 rebounds.
We controlled the game
but they never gave up,
Ajinca said.
Dairis Bertans led all
scorers with 28 points for
Latvia.
We trailed by 20 at half-
time and against a team
such as France its hard
to come back from such
a margin, Latvia guard
Janis Blums said. But we
are still alive.

onships on Friday night.
Tyler Andersen and
Anthony Espinoza prevailed
in the doubles competition.
The start championships are
held on the indoor ramps at
USA Luges headquarters,
and serve as the unofcal
start to the sliding season
that culminates in February
at the Sochi Olympics.
Some of USA Luges ath-
letes will start on-ice training
in Norway later this month,
and the track at Mt. Van
Hoevenberg in Lake Placid
is scheduled to open for luge,
bobsled and skeleton train-
ing on Oct. 1.
Former world champion
Erin Hamlin was a strong
second in the womens race,
nishing in 3.05 seconds,
with Clukey holding her off
by posting a two-run time
of 3.025 seconds. Hamlin
nished third at the start
championships in each of the
previous four seasons.
Kate Hansen and Emily
Sweeney tied for third in
the womens race, both n-
ishing in 3.068 seconds.
Clukey, Hamlin, Hansen
and Sweeney are the leading
candidates to take the three
spots the U.S. expects to
have in womens luge at the
Sochi Games.
In the mens race, West
posted the fastest time in
both heats, nishing in a
combined 2.799 seconds.
Chris Mazdzer (2.845) was
second, Aidan Kelly (2.879)
was third and Joe Mortensen
(2.915) was fourth.
Luges relatively newrelay-
start system, which brings
reaction time into play, fac-
tored into the event. The
rst run was done under
the traditional starting for-
mat, and the second one was
relay-style, where a single
beep told sliders to get ready,
a double beep told them to
get set, and from there the
gates can open at any time.
The rst run I was just
working on power, West
said. The second run I
just have to work on being
quick.
In doubles, Andersen and
Espinoza may have pulled
off a bit of a surprise by win-
ning with a two-run time of
2.846 seconds, 0.036 sec-
onds better than the veteran
team of Christian Niccum
and Berwick native Jayson
Terdiman.
Blues, Pietrangelo agree
on 7-year deal for $45.5M
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS The St.
Louis Blues and defen-
seman Alex Pietrangelo
agreed on a seven-year,
$45.5 million contract with
a no-trade clause over the
nal three years, ending a
brief holdout.
The deal was announced
Friday, one day after the
rst practice of training
camp. General manager
Doug Armstrong said it
was a strong signal that
the Blues intend for the
23-year-old Pietrangelo, the
fourth overall pick of the
2008 draft and one of the
top offensive defensemen
in the NHL, to spend his
career in St. Louis.
A news conference for
Armstrong and Pietrangelo
(Pet-TRANJ-el-oh) was set
for Saturday.
What I said to him,
This isnt a seven-year
deal, this is just another
steppingstone, Armstrong
said. I think hes excited to
be here, I know were excit-
ed to have him, get him in
here and turn him over to
the coach.
The Blues had hoped
to get a deal before train-
ing camp but talks briey
broke down. Armstrong
said negotiations resumed
Thurs day and we were
able to wrap up all the loose
ends that were there.
Pietrangelo tweeted,
Really excited to be a part
of Blues organization for
the next 7 years.
He will average $6.5
million on a deal that will
gradually escalate, making
$5 million this season and
peaking at $7.5 million in
the nal season.
Its something thats
ongoing because both sides
wanted to get it done, and
a lot of credit goes to ulti-
mately Alex, Armstrong
said. As we said a couple
days ago, Alex makes these
decisions. Not his agent,
not anyone else. Today,
when I talked to himhe was
satised.
Players got the news
coming off the ice.
Forward David Backes,
the team captain, called
Pietrangelo a supreme
talent who is able to shut
down the oppositions top
forward without sacricing
offense.
Hes a top defenseman
in this league, no question,
Backes said. To know that
hes with us, we can knock
that distraction off the list,
kind of that peripheral
noise. We know that weve
got our guys together.
Pietrangelo led the
teams defensemen with 24
points ve goals and 19
assists and was among
the league leaders with an
average of 25 minutes per
game. Hes been a regular
the past three seasons.
Armstrong said it had
been a matter of when
not if the parties agreed
on a deal.

LAKE FOREST, Ill. With a
shot at golf s magic number, Jim
Furyk had no trouble nishing the
job.
Furyk birdied two of his last
holes, stufng a gap wedge into
just over 3 feet on his nal hole
Friday at the BMW Championship,
and knocked in the putt to become
the sixth player in PGA Tour his-
tory to shoot 59.
Standing in the ninth fairway at
Conway Farms, 103 yards from a
front pin, Furyk didnt want to let
his chance get away from him.
I said, How many opportunities
are you going to have in life to do
this again? he said. Got to take
advantage of it. Tried to knock it in
there tight and make it as easy on
yourself as you can.
The gallery lined both sides of
the fairway about 150 yards down
from the green and gave him a
huge ovation when he walked onto
the green. One fan screamed out,
Jimmy, Ill give it you! Furyk
smiled and waved at him.
He made the putt and repeatedly
pumped his st, turning for the
gallery in the grandstands to see,
and then he hugged caddie Mike
Fluff Cowan and tapped him on
the head. It looked like a Sunday
afternoon, and had the occasion of
a winning putt.
This at least gave Furyk a share of
the lead at the BMW Championship
with Brandt Snedeker, who was
nine shots clear of Furyk at the
start of the day and shot 68.
It was the rst 59 on the PGA
Tour since Stuart Appleby in the
nal round of The Greenbrier
Classic in 2010.
The others with a 59 were Al
Geiberger in the 1977 Memphis
Classic; Chip Beck in the 1991 Las
Vegas Invitational; David Duval in
the 1999 Bob Hope Classic; and
Paul Goydos in the 2010 John
Deere Classic.
Theres not much I could have
improved on today, Furyk said.
For a change, everything went
right at the end. Furyk has been
haunted in the last two years with
a bogey on the 16th hole that cost
him a shot at the 2012 U.S. Open, a
double bogey at Firestone last year
that kept him from winning a World
Golf Championship, a bogey-bogey
nish in the Ryder Cup to lose a key
match to Sergio Garcia last year in
Chicago, and a one-shot lead he
failed to hold just last month at the
PGA Championship.
Making it worse, he was left off
a U.S. team for the rst time in 15
years when Presidents Cup captain
Fred Couples did not make him a
wild-card selection. On this day,
Furyk gave Couples 59 reasons to
reconsider.
LPGA Tour
EVIAN-LES-BAINS, France
Mika Miyazato of Japan shot a
6-under 65 to take the lead after
the rain-delayed rst round of the
Evian Championship, the years
fth and nal major.
The tournament was shortened
to 54 holes after Thursdays play
was washed out.
Top-ranked Inbee Park, making
a bid for golf history, got off to a
bad start with a 74. The 25-year-old
South Korean is trying to become
the rst professional to win four
majors in a season. But she dou-
ble bogeyed the second hole and
capped a frustrating day with a
bogey on the 18th.
Suzann Pettersen of Norway
bogeyed the last hole to fall one
shot behind Miyazato, along with
Hall of Famer Se Ri Pak of South
Korea and Sandra Gal of Germany.
Miyazato is looking for her rst
LPGA title this year. This month,
Pettersen won the Safeway Classic
for the second time in three years
for her 12th Tour victory.
European Tour
ZANDVOORT, Netherlands
Pablo Larrazabal shot a 4-under
66 to join fellow Spaniard Miguel
Angel Jimenez atop the leader-
board after the second round at the
KLM Open.
First-round leader Jimenez, who
won the tournament in 1994, shot a
bogey-free 67. The co-leaders are at
9-under totals of 131. The 49-year-
old veteran is chasing his 20th
European Tour title.
Three-time champion Simon
Dyson matched the course record at
the Kennemer Golf & Country Club
with a 63 to join fellow Englishman
Oliver Fisher and Julien Quesne of
France in a tie for second one
shot behind the leaders.

LAS VEGAS Listen
to Floyd Mayweather
Jr.s people and Canelo
Alvarez wanted to ght
their man so badly he
offered to drop a few
pounds to get him to sign
on the dotted line.
Listen to the Alvarez
camp and Mayweather
wanted the ght at an
even lower weight that
Alvarez would have to
starve himself to make.
The truth, promoter
Richard Schaefer says,
lies somewhere in the
middle.
Weight is always a big
deal in ghts, and it is
center stage again in one
of the biggest ghts in
recent years. Saturday
nights megaght is of-
cially for a version of
the 154-pound title held
by Alvarez, but will be
fought at a catch weight
of 152 pounds that will
be harder for Alvarez
to make than it is for
Mayweather.
Theyre the ones
who said they would
ght at a lower weight,
said Leonard Ellerbe,
Mayweathers manager.
We cant help it Alvarez
has idiots for managers,
but were going to take
every advantage they give
us.
Alvarez is a full-edged
junior middleweight
and has been for more
than three years now.
Hes physically bigger at
5-foot-9 than Mayweather
and has had to lose good
amounts of weight in the
nal days in some of his
recent ghts just to get to
the 154-pound class limit.
But when the chance
came to move in to
the upper stratosphere
of ghters against
Mayweather with at
least a $5 million payday
attached to it Alvarez
had to give up a few
pounds against a ghter
more used to ghting at
147 pounds.
They wanted me to
go to 147, Alvarez said
earlier this week when
he said he was already
down to 154 pounds. I
said that was physically
impossible. Then they
wanted 150 and then
151. I wanted to make the
ght so I agreed to 152.
Then they forced me to
be quiet about it.
Getting an advan-
tage is nothing new to
Mayweather. He does it
in the ring with his tre-
mendous skills to adapt,
and he does it outside
the ring by playing with
his opponents mind.
For Mayweather, making
Alvarez think constantly
in training about mak-
ing 152 pounds may have
been more important
than the actual weight
itself.
Theres a thousand
different ways I can beat
a guy, Mayweather said.
Oddsmakers in this
gambling town believe
Mayweather will nd one
of those ways when he
takes on the undefeated
Mexican star in what
could be boxings richest
ght ever.
Hes a 2-1 favorite
against a bigger and pre-
sumably stronger ghter
who will probably rehy-
drate to enter the ring
10 pounds heavier than
Mayweather.
The ght, which also
features a much anticipat-
ed 140-pound title bout
between Danny Garcia
and Lucas Matthysse, will
be televised on pay-per-
view at a suggested cost
of $74.95.
Mayweather will earn
the biggest purse ever for
a ghter, $41.5 million
guaranteed with even
more millions to come
if the pay-per-view takes
off. Early indications are
that the ght will be one
of the biggest in years,
with celebrities who usu-
ally get free tickets even
offering to pay for ring-
side seats at the MGM
Grand hotel that rst sold
at $2,000 and now are
being offered for as much
as $29,000.
The live gate itself will
be $20 million and the
pay-per-view could bring
in another $150 million
in a ght featuring the
reigning king of pay-per-
view against the biggest
sports hero in Mexico.
Hes put the sport on
his back, Ellerbe said
of Mayweather, whose
earnings for the year will
total at least $73 million.
Boxing is a niche sport,
but the highest-paid ath-
lete in the world is a
boxer.
Weighty issues, big money for Mayweather-Alvarez

NEW YORK Interceptions.
Dropped passes. Flared tempers.
It all made for one ugly night for the
New York Jets.
And, one in which they still could have
walked out of New England with a win.
Obviously, coach Rex Ryan said
Friday, theres some frustration in the
fact that we didnt pull it out.
They certainly had their chances in a
13-10 loss Thursday night in which Tom
Brady and his wide receivers were not in
sync and the Jets defense was impres-
sive for the second straight game. But
New York had at least six dropped pass-
es in slick conditions, and rookie Geno
Smith also threw three fourth-quarter
interceptions.
There was also a sideline skirmish at
the end of the night that put a tting end
to a messy game.
We had some opportunities there,
clearly, Ryan said during a conference
call. You have to give New England
credit because they made enough plays
at the end of the game to win it and were
able to turn the ball over, and that was
obviously critical.
The numbers are what makes Ryan
and the rest of the Jets shake their heads,
and the fact the Patriots were without
key playmakers Danny Amendola, Rob
Gronkowski and Shane Vereen. Brady
was just 19 of 39 for 185 yards and a
touchdown, a 48.7 completion percent-
age that was his lowest since 2009.
The Patriots quarterback was visibly
frustrated by the Jets, and yelled at his
receivers.
New England also went just 4 for 19
on third down and punted 11 times.
I think our defense played extremely
well, Ryan said. Anytime you can force
New England to punt more than they
had rst downs, I think, even though I
understand most of the credit is going
elsewhere, I think some of the credit
should be going to our team.
The defense was clearly the bright
spot of the game for the Jets, who didnt
allow a point to the Patriots in the sec-
ond half. New York allowed only three
points to Tampa Bay in the second half
of last Sundays 18-17 win.
Is anybody surprised we have a great
defense? said Ryan, who predicted in
the preseason that his team would n-
ish ranked in the top 5 in the league. I
dont think that surprises anybody. By
the end of the year, this team, it could be
pretty salty on defense.
That Smith struggled on the road, in
New England, in particular, was also not
a stunner. But the way things fell apart
in the nal quarter could be cause for
some concern.
After going three quarters without a
critical mistake, Smith had the Jets in
position to try for a tying eld goal.
But he tried to force a pass to Santonio
Holmes on third down that he threw
across his body and was intercepted
by Aqib Talib. Alfonzo Dennard picked
off Smith later in the quarter on a bad
throw intended for Clyde Gates.
Worst of all was a throw in the nal
minute to Stephen Hill that Talib
stepped in front of to seal the win for
the Patriots.
That play led to Nick Mangolds dive
at Talibs legs near the sideline that set
off the skirmish. Ryan insisted it wasnt
intentional, but Mangold and fellow
offensive linemen Willie Colon and
DBrickashaw Ferguson both ejected
could face league discipline.
It appeared Ferguson took a swing
at Patriots center Ryan Wendall, and
Colon pushed away the hands of back
judge Todd Prukop after Prukop made
contact with the Jets offensive lineman.
The contact with the ofcial doesnt
carry an automatic suspension.
Smith shouldered the blame for the
loss, and the mistakes by the offense.
Through it, he was still poised,
Ryan said. It wasnt like he was rattled.
I think he was condent. He threw some
jump balls at the end when youre trying
to force some issues, but youre trying to
make some plays.
The young man, for the most part, he
delivered some nice passes. Weve just
got to catch them.
Thats an area where Smith wasnt
at fault. Ryan wasnt sure exactly how
many drops there were by Jets receivers
It was way too many, he said but
there were at least six, including three
by Gates.
We know we have to catch the ball
better, Ryan said. Weve emphasized it
all camp. Im condent well get it xed.
We have to get it xed.

NASCAR
Ryan Newman.
Truex, in his rst comments
since he was knocked out of the
Chase on Monday, said its been a
surreal week. An unwitting victim
of his teammates efforts to help
him, he lost his Chase bid after
driving the last two weeks with two
broken bones in his wrist and a cast
on his right arm.
All I did the last two weeks
was drive my heart out, he said
Friday. I went from feeling like I
really climbed a mountain in that
race at Richmond to going to being
knocked out of the Chase.
Speaking before NASCARs deci-
sion to put Gordon in the Chase,
Truex was asked what hed think if
the eld was expanded to include
the four-time champion.
Well, my team deserves to be in
this Chase as much as any of those
teams. If theyre going to start put-
ting people back in, they ought to
consider us, too, Truex said.
But Truex is still out, punishment
for his teammates working so hard
to help him get in. NASCAR will
hold a mandatory team and driver
meeting Saturday to clarify the
rules of the road moving forward.
France would not specify what
wont be tolerated going forward.
Obviously we drew a line with
the penalties with Michael Waltrip
Racing, France said. Were going
to make sure that we have the right
rules going forward, so that the
integrity of the competitive land-
scape of the events are not altered
in a way or manipulated.
The entire mess began a mere
seven laps from the nish Saturday
night with Newman en route to a
victory that would have given him
the nal spot in the Chase. MWR
driver Clint Bowyer spun, bringing
out a caution and setting in motion
a chain of events that cost Newman
the win and a Chase berth.
It also cost Gordon a Chase berth
and put Truex and Logano into the
nal two spots.
It later became clear that
Bowyers spin was deliberate
although NASCAR has said it cant
prove that and that Bowyer and
teammate Brian Vickers allowed
Logano to gain late nishing posi-
tions to bump Gordon out of the
Chase to aid Truex.
Among the penalties levied
against MWR was a $300,000
ne and the indenite suspension
of general manager Ty Norris.
Bowyer, Truex and Brian Vickers
were docked 50 points each, and
their crew chiefs were placed on
probation through the end of the
year.
Bowyer has denied the spin was
deliberate. NASCAR could only
prove one action radio communi-
cation between Norris and Vickers
in which a confused Vickers was
told to pit as the eld went green
with three laps to go.
Once NASCAR singled out
that action, a Pandoras box was
opened and the apparent bargain-
ing between Penske and Front Row
became dicey.
And Gordons anger began to
grow. Gordon said he felt that
Bowyer also deserved to be pun-
ished for giving up late track posi-
tion, just as Vickers did, and he
called NASCARs penalties half
right.
And now hes in the Chase with
Bowyer but only after the sec-
ond controversy.
The Associated Press
JOLIET, Ill. Penske Racing
swept the front row in qualify-
ing for the rst race of the Chase,
with Joey Logano winning the pole
hours after NASCAR placed his
team on probation for allegedly cut-
ting a deal with another organiza-
tion to help him make the champi-
onship eld.
Logano turned a lap at 189.414
mph around Chicagoland Speedway
on Friday to bump teammate and
defending NASCAR champion
Brad Keselowski.
Keselowski did not qualify for
the Chase but Logano did make it
in last Saturday night at Richmond
International Raceway.
Juan Pablo Montoya qualied
third and was followed by Kasey
Kahne and Ricky Stenhouse Jr.
Jeff Gordon will start sixth on
Sunday in the rst race of the
Chase and will be eligible for his
fth championship after NASCAR
made him eligible earlier in the day.

CHICAGO The U.S.
Department of Agriculture
and Coca-Cola signed a ve-
year agreement Friday to
restore watersheds that have
been damaged or altered by
development, wildres and
agriculture as part of an ini-
tiative to slow runoff and
replenish groundwater on
federal lands.
Such efforts are increas-
ingly important to corpo-
rations and farmers who
rely on water and to tens of
millions of people whose
drinking water originates in
the national forest system,
Agriculture Secretary Tom
Vilsack said. But federal bud-
get cuts and the wide scope of
the problem have the USDA
turning to partnerships with
nonprot groups and corpo-
rations for help.
We need to look cre-
atively at ways to leverage
our resources or attract out-
side resources, said Vilsack,
who along with Coca-Cola
Americas President Steve
Cahillane will announce the
partnership at the Midewin
National Tallgrass Prairie out-
side of Chicago. A wetland at
the 18,000-acre site is being
restored by removing old
agricultural drain tiles that
divert almost 14 million gal-
lons per year into waterways
and eventually down the
Mississippi River rather
than allowing it to soak back
into the ground.
Its one of six projects that
Coca-Cola has helped fund
through a pilot program
with the USDAs U.S. Forest
Service over the past two
years, said Chris Savage,
assistant director of the
agencys Watershed, Fisheries
and Wildlife ofce. Others
included restoring a wetland
in Californias Sierra Nevada
Mountains that helps supply
water to San Francisco and
restoring the landscape along
Colorados South Platte River
that was devastated by re a
decade ago.
Under the new agreement,
the company and the Forest
Service will work with two
nonprot foundations the
National Forest Foundation
and the National Fish and
Wildlife Foundation to
identify projects on federal
lands. Corporate funding will
go through the foundations,
which also contribute money
to the projects, ofcials said.
There is no specic amount
committed to the projects,
but Vilsack said he expects
millions will be spent.
Coca-Cola will emphasize
projects that can be done
fairly easily and improve
resources in areas where the
company withdraws water for
production, said Bruce Karas,
the companys vice president
of environment and sustain-
ability for North America.

David Mintz, CEO of Tofutti, the maker of dairy-free products, says he finds many older workers have the
trademarks of youth: enthusiasm, fresh thinking and an ability to start the day early and work late.

Older people searching for
jobs have long fought back
stereotypes that they lack the
speed, technology skills and
dynamism of younger appli-
cants. But as a wave of baby
boomers seeks to stay on the
job later in life, some employ-
ers are nding older workers
are precisely what they need.
Theres no experience
like experience, said David
Mintz, CEO of dairy-free
products maker Tofutti,
where about one-third of
the workers are over 50. I
cant put an ad saying, Older
people wanted, but theres no
comparison.
Surveys consistently show
older people believe they
experience age discrimina-
tion on the job market, and
although unemployment is
lower among older workers,
long-term unemployment is
far higher. As the American
population and its labor force
reshape, though, with a larger
chunk of older workers, some
employers are slowly recog-
nizing their skill and experi-
ence.
About 200 employers, from
Google to AT&T to MetLife,
have signed an AARP pledge
recognizing the value of expe-
rienced workers and vowing
to consider applicants 50 and
older.
One of them, New York-
based KPMG, has found suc-
cess with a high proportion
of older workers, who bring
experience that the company
says adds credibility. The
auditing, tax and advisory
rm says older workers also
tend to be more dedicated
to staying with the company,
a plus for clients who like to
build a relationship with a
consultant they can count on
to be around for years.
Some Gen Ys and
Millennials have this notion
of, I will have ve jobs in 10
years, said Sig Shirodkar, a
human resources consultant
with KPMG. Were looking
for ways to tame that beast.
Many employers nd older
workers help them connect
with older clients. At the
Vermont Country Store in
Rockingham, Vt., the average
customer is now in their 60s,
and about half of the busi-
ness 400 workers are over
50, coming from a range of
professional backgrounds,
often outside retail. Having

THE TIMES LEADER SATuRDAy, SEpTEMbER 14, 2013
WAY BACK IN early May, the world
teemed with promise. The planters were
upside down and shedding droplets in the
backyard, having just had
a badly needed hose bath.
Id never fully cleaned out
the dirt from the previous
spring, see, and placing it
into the pots was as far as Id
come anyway.
But, oh, this year would
be different.
This year I would not only
get myself to the garden
store, purchase new topsoil,
lug it home and pour it into
those pretty pots a big,
bright yellow one, a smaller
poppy-pink one and a set of terra-cotta
baby twins but Id actually take the next
step, too, which would be to drop in the
herbs that soon would come popping out
like crazy.
Into the terra cotta would go the less-
er herbs, cilantro or savory, tarragon or
thyme. No offense to those. By lesser,
I merely mean lesser-used, at least in my
world, where a little cilantro goes a long
way. The bigger, fancier pots were for big-
ger dreams. The yellow would be marvel-
ous for mint, in a summer rife with mojitos
and aromatic tea. The pink would be swell
for the more elegant basil or some plucky
rosemary, either of which always comes in
handy for a gourmet grilled cheese. This
year I might try that on the actual grill,
too.
Oh, the plans I had. Herbs were just a
blip on The List 2013.
Ha. Summer, you big tease. Here today
and gone tomorrow. Again.
Stood at my kitchen window this morn-
ing sometimes I call it the pane of pain
and once again took stock of the life I
forgot to live. Tradition has held, and the
list, originally named to do, quickly
turned into to dont or at least not yet.
No, there were no herbs this summer.
The pots still sit upside down, where I
left them in April, taunting me; this year I
didnt even get as far as the dirt, for crying
out loud.
Not going to lie; summer was rough,
with other designs on my time.
All the appliances were to fail in orderly
fashion, for one thing, meaning a lot of
researching and price-shopping and other
related headaches. And the basement
that became a minor-catastrophe victim
in spring turned into an easily half-the-
summer project that swallowed the days
without counting calories. Im still picking
up nay, shredding the pieces.
But there is an upside to forced basement
cleaning: Moving mountains of paperwork
up two oors sometimes leaves no choice
but to sort and purge in short order, lest
you have to look at all that stuff every day.
A 10-year-old credit score isnt going to
do me any good now, and I think its safe
to throw out the tax forms from the 90s
while Im at it as well.
Yet for all the good the great eradication
did, what I did not throw out was equally
time-consuming. Hours that could have
been spent soaking up Vitamin D were
more than once whiled away looking wist-
fully through everything from old birthday
and holiday cards to actual hand-written
letters. Kids, in ancient times, people with
something to say often put pen to paper
and sometimes even used something
called cursive
Ah, but what good is looking back when
we can be moving forward?
So summer was shorter than it was
sweet; it will nonetheless return, and bid it
farewell we must. Now let there be apples
and pumpkins and cider and crows. And
at least one big, oppy stuffed creature to
scare off the latter.
Let the herb pots go back into storage,
with the tiki lamps, citronella candles and
beach toys. But let next year make up for
this year, please.
Hey, speaking of this year, welcome
back, almost-autumn. Do I have plans for
you. Fresh pumpkins will turn into real
jack-o-lanterns, and I think Ill roast the
seeds, too. Cider, if you ask me, is best
served in homemade doughnuts. And
scarecrows would love to sit atop some
artistically designed hay bales. Ill have to
check my Pinterest
What? Dont believe me? Im all talk?
Ring me in December. For the moment,
its game on.

at your own game?

Wall to Wall
Your choice of lighting has a huge impact on
how your home looks and feels. But how do you
choose when the options include everything
from retro Edison-style bulbs with glowing la-
ments to compact uorescents, plus lamps and
xtures in every shape and size?
Lamps are one of the most important fac-
tors in a rooms design, says designer Brian
Patrick Flynn of Flynnside Out Productions.
Yet homeowners often give lighting less atten-
tion than they do furniture or wall colors.
Here, Flynn and designers Betsy Burnham
of Burnham Design and Molly Luetkemeyer of
M. Design Interiors share tips on choosing the
perfect lamps, lampshades and light bulbs to
achieve maximum style and function.
Overhead and eye-level
If a room has no overhead lighting or wall
sconces, these designers say its worth hiring
an electrician to add them.
Flynn recommends using 2-inch or 4-inch
recessed halogen lights overhead, rather than
brighter 6-inch can lights.
They instantly ll a room with the much-
needed illumination, he says, but without
looking tacky or heavy.
Wall sconces also cast a attering glow, and
can serve as striking decorative pieces. Vintage
(or new vintage-style) sconces are popular,
Burnham says, and can be found at some ea
markets. If you buy them used, take them to
a lamp shop to check all the wiring, she says,
and replace any worn parts before installing.
But dont light a room exclusively with
overhead lighting: Light from above that isnt
balanced by lamplight can be prison-like,
Luetkemeyer says. It casts a bunch of shadows
and makes you look like a cadaver.
Instead, create pools of light at different
levels for a warm, layered effect, she says.
Flynn accomplishes this by choosing lamps
at various heights. Its all a game of scale and
proportion, he says.
If the lamps are going on a tall console table
with a super long piece of art hung above it, Im
denitely going to be looking for tall, slender,
maybe candlestick-style lamps. On low-to-the-
ground end tables, Im most likely going to aim
for something squatty which is balanced with
the proportion of the table and its nearby seat-
ing.
Go retro
Edison-style bulbs have become popular and
look great in industrial or vintage light xtures
or in chandeliers. But they can cost as much as
$15 per bulb and give off minimal light.
So use them as sculptural features integrat-
ed into lighting, Flynn says. Since theyre
offered in many shapes, theyre almost like art.
The ideal place for Edison bulbs is romantic
spaces which are not high-trafc. For example,
a chandelier above a bed in a master suite
with Edison bulbs is ideal, since the room is
not task-related and is meant for being sleepy
and moody.Burnham points out that these
bulbs popularity may not last, so its probably
impractical to invest in too many lamps or x-
tures that look good only with them.
Another vintage option is the globe light that
rst appeared in the 1950s. Their milky white
nish and perfectly round shape can cast a
attering glow, Flynn says.
I use these a lot, especially in kids rooms,
he says, due to their fun shape and nostalgic
appeal. Buy plastic globes rather than glass
if youll be hanging them in rooms where kids
may be roughhousing.
Another option: vintage Nelson pendants,
which are made of wire and vinyl in many
shapes and sizes.
One of the best investments as far as light-
ing is concerned is to invest in classic George
Nelson bubbles, Flynn says. I love to group
them together and hang them above beds or
dining tables.
Forget old rules
Dont feel obligated to use the lampshade
that comes with a lamp, Burnham says. You can
replace it with another of similar size but a dif-
ferent shape, style or color. Or keep the shade
but add piping or ribbon to change its look.
Another bit of rule-breaking: Chandeliers
Take a light touch to create ambience

Designer Brian Patrick Flynn grouped several vintage George Nelson bubble pendants together to hang above this
bed, creating a warm pool of light in the bedroom. The vintage pendants, made of wire and vinyl, add a playful touch
to any space.
One of the joys of late
summer and early fall is
spending deck time with
family and friends. That is,
of course, unless your out-
door structure has become
a debris-laden, splintering
eyesore.
A wood deck can last a
lifetime, providing its well
maintained. If you want
to keep yours or get
yours in good shape, fol-
low tips our research team
gleaned from highly rated
deck pros:
Do an inspection.
Review the deck annually,
searching for such safety
hazards as loose bolts,
nails, rails, handles and
floorboards.
Keep it clean. At least
once a year, clear your deck
of leaves, twigs, branches
and other material.
To remove mold, mildew
or other stains, use a deck-
cleaning solution and a stiff
brush. Power washing is
another option, but use a
light setting; high pressure
can splinter wood.
Stain or seal.
Depending on how much
time your deck bakes in the
sun or is exposed to other
extremes, it will need to be
stained or sealed every two
to four years.
Start with a thorough
cleaning, making sure the
deck dries for a full 24 to 48
hours before applying the
first coat of stain or sealant.
Two coats are recommend-
ed, as deck wood, over time,
will develop cracks that will
expand with the passing of
the seasons.
If deck wood is new or
in good shape, consider a
transparent stain that lets
much of the grain show
through. A semi-transpar-
ent stain will reveal less
grain and a solid color will
cover completely. Solid
stain is recommended if
wood is splintering or oth-
erwise showing signs of
damage.
Whatever product you
choose, be sure it repels
water and contains a UV
protector to resist fad-
ing. Also, look for a water-
soluble or oil-based stain.
Oil-based products will last
from three to five years.
Apply stain or sealant
evenly and watch for drips,
especially on vertical ser-
vices. Be sure to back
brush as you apply, push-
ing the material into the
cracks of the deck boards,
making sure its absorbed
completely.
If deck upkeep is more
work than you want to do
yourself, there are many
companies that provide
deck repair and mainte-
nance services.
The price of hiring a pro-
fessional can vary greatly,
depending on the size and
shape of your deck, as well
as the materials used. Basic
maintenance cleaning,
wood repair and staining or
sealing ranges from $400
to more than $1,000.
If you decide to hire deck
help, get several bids, check
references and confirm that
the company is appropri-
ately licensed and insured.
In addition, make sure the
company has a plan for cov-
ering and protecting plants
and other areas from clean-
ers or stains.
And when all is done,
celebrate with some well-
deserved downtime on your
now-delightful deck.
Proper deck maintenance is a rite of late summer

O
Designers are once
again going for gold.
The metal has been
on the decorative outs
for a couple of decades,
but its making its way
back into home decor
this time in a burnished,
warmer form.
Gold and other yellow
metallics are showing
up in furniture, lighting,
even fabrics and wall
coverings. They bring a
little glimmer to a room,
a little understated glam-
our.
This isnt some ornate
casbah look or a return to
staid Colonial style, how-
ever. Todays gold met-
als are soft and subdued,
often with the complex
look of handcrafting.
Doty Horn, who runs
the color marketing firm
ColorVoyant in Holicong,
Pa., thinks golds resur-
gence is tied to the eco-
nomic recovery but not
because of its association
with money. Gold is in
the yellow family, which
she said is a happy, posi-
tive color.
Its a sign of opti-
mism, she said.
Rose gold is especially
popular now, Horn said,
its pinkish hue adding
complexity without the
hardness and rustiness of
copper. Brass is coming
back, too, although in a
lower-luster finish.
Indeed, the finish
really is key, she said.
Shiny gold is out. Gold
with a more complex,
matte finish is in.
The reappearance of
gold also is an indication
of the renewed popular-
ity of traditional design,
albeit with a fresher,
more modern twist, said
Jennifer McConnell, vice
president of design for
furniture maker Pearson
Co.
McConnell likes add-
ing little gold accents
to furniture pieces
maybe a gold-leafed
stretcher on a bench or
antique brass ferrules
on the tips of a chairs
legs. Nailhead trim in
gold metals is starting to
replace chrome, she said,
and gold leaf is popular
on accent tables as a way
of adding just a bit of
glitz to a room.
Even shiny brass has its
place in the gold come-
back, though McConnell
tends to use it in small
doses and often in com-
bination with antique
brass so it doesnt look
dated.
Her company intro-
duced a modern cabi-
net last season with an
ivory shagreen front and
an Art Deco starburst
motif inlaid with gold
leaf, as well as some
polished brass accents.
You would never in
a million years think
Williamsburg, she said.
Nor would dated colo-
nial decor come to mind
from some of the pieces
offered by trend-setter
Baker Furniture.
Bakers use of gold
runs the gamut from
subtle touches such as
the handle on the back
of a chair to eye-catch-
ing details such as the
carved, gold-leafed doors
on a chest.
And sometimes a
room needs a showstop-
per that one piece that
catches everyones eye,
James Nauyok, Bakers
vice president for prod-
uct development and
visual display, said in an
email. Gold gives a piece
like that its drama.
Brad Kleinberg, presi-
dent of chandelier maker
Crystorama, said the new
gold appeals mainly to
younger consumers with
a keen interest in style.
With the economy
strengthening, those
consumers are feeling
freer to be more fashion-
forward in their home
design choices, he said.
So theyre throwing
off safe choices such
as chrome and satin
nickel and reaching for
something with a little
elegance and bling,
something a little more
cutting-edge.
Crystorama special-
izes in updating tradi-
tional lighting designs,
so Kleinberg said its
using a lot of multilay-
ered finishes to give
its gold chandeliers the
hand-worked look thats
on trend now. Those
finishes often start with
a layer of gold leaf and
sometimes have a little
silver in them, he said.
Some even have a sand-
like texture.
This contemporary
take on gold may be com-
plex, but its hardly fussy.
That sets it apart from
the older uses of gold,
which tended to be more
ornate, Bath Township
interior designer
Christine Haught said.
Haught said she
recently removed some
elaborate French cande-
labras that had decorated
her own fireplace mantel
for years, because shed
grown tired of them and
wanted a more stream-
lined look. But she could
imagine incorporating
gold into a room in a sim-
pler shape, perhaps in a
small piece like a side
table or in combination
with other metals.
Gold and other metals
bring an ethereal, almost
magical quality to a
space, she said. Theyre
the jewelry of design.
And as such, theyre
best used judiciously.
Pearsons McConnell,
for example, likes the
idea of bringing gold
in via accents. A sofa
upholstered in linen, for
example, could be updat-
ed with throw pillows
made from a fabric shot
through with gold metal-
lic threads. Or a bath-
room could be updated
by replacing the cabinet
pulls and faucet with
brass or bronze.
Color consultant Horn
thinks such restraint is
wise.
The gold metal-
lic (trend) is kind of a
flash, Horn said fine
for items that can be
changed easily, but not
for more permanent ele-
ments such as flooring or
wallcoverings. She might
put wallcovering with
gold details on an accent
wall, she said, but she
wouldnt paper an entire
room in it.
Haught and fellow
interior designer Eric
Jones agree.
Haught doesnt foresee
gold metals coming back
in popularity to the point
of becoming common
in such widely used ele-
ments as door hardware
and plumbing fixtures.
And Jones, of Akrons
Jones Group Interiors,
said most clients still
cringe at their use.
Anytime you suggest
brass to someone, the
answer is, ewwww, no,
he said.
should not be limited to
living rooms and dining
rooms, Flynn says. I
use them in bathrooms a
lot simply to bring more
of a decorative look to an
otherwise task-oriented
space.
His trick for making
chandeliers appear less
formal? Swap out ame
bulbs for globes. It mod-
ernizes an otherwise tradi-
tional, heavy element.
Dimmers, too, arent
just for dining rooms. The
designers suggest adding
dimmers in every room
of the home. Installation
is easy enough that you
may want to do it your-
self, Luetkemeyer says,
and its a complete game
changer in how the home
is lit.
Also, consider using a
oor lamp as a bedside
reading lamp. Many oor
lamps have bulbs that sit
between 4 and 6 feet above
the oor perfect for
illuminating a book when
youre propped up in bed
and they take up little
space.
Lighting as art
Some lamps come with
warning labels advising
owners to use only low-
wattage bulbs. Think of
these lamps more as
accessories than true light
sources, Flynn says.
One of the most practi-
cal ways to employ accent
lamps is as night lights, he
says. Many times, Ill add
a few to a built-in so the
wall becomes somewhat of
a dramatic feature at night.
I think accent lamps offer
a great opportunity to play
with color and texture.
Luetkemeyer agrees:
Think of low-wattage
lamps almost as sculp-
ture, she says.
Flynn takes that
approach with the Astro
pendant light made by
Crystorama. He has used
it several times to add
beauty and style to entry-
ways.
It works well with just
about every style interior,
he says, and you can install
just one or group several
together for more drama.
Sculptural lighting x-
tures often work well when
installed in groups of odd
numbers.
Better bulbs
Once youve chosen the
right lighting, its impor-
tant to select the right
bulbs. Along with Edison-
style bulbs, silver-tipped
bulbs are becoming popu-
lar. Their ends are painted
so that little or no light
escapes there. The result
is softer, more indirect
light.
Luetkemeyer likes frost-
ed bulbs and soft pink
ones, and she favors three-
ways bulbs for the same
reason she loves dimmers:
They let you choose soft
light when you want it and
bright light when you need
it.
Progress is being made
in making compact uo-
rescent bulbs that give off
warmer, more appealing
light, but many now on
the market produce a cold,
blue-tinged light.

Lifes too shot to be alone
With each newmember of
its inaugural rollout, Netix
continues its creative course
of conservative innovation.
It has the star-studded
drama (House of Cards),
a little horror for the young
folk (Hemlock Grove), the
iconic re-issue (Arrested
Development) and a sassy
dramedy (Orange Is the
New Black). Really, all
thats missing from this
cable template is a period
piece and something new
from Ricky Gervais.
And now, heres some-
thing new from Ricky
Gervais.
Derek, which appeared
in its seven-episode entirety
Thursday, is a heartbreak-
ing mess of a show. It is, by
turns, hilarious and histrion-
ic, illuminating and infuriat-
ing. It will make you laugh,
and it will make you cry. But
it also will make you want to
tear your hair out in frustra-
tion before taking to Twitter
to ask Gervais to please
dear God let someone else
direct next time.
Set in a nancially
struggling old folks home,
Derek is an ode to those
whose lives are given over
to others and an unapolo-
getic treatise on the impor-
tance of being kind. Anyone
who nds such a message
surprising, given its source,
hasnt been following
Gervais career very closely.
All comedy is rooted
in pain, and Gervais pain
has always been on display.
The Ofce was a paean
to self-delusion, Extras
a treatise on addiction to
fame. A comedian with
an insistent moral code,
Gervais thrives on saying
outrageous things and then
acting surprised when peo-
ple become outraged; its all
about reaction.
Which is why he almost
always swings big, and
Derek is his biggest swing
yet. Following in a theatri-
cal tradition tracing from
Flowers for Algernon
to Rain Man, he plays
Derek, a non-specically
intellectually challenged
man who loves animals, old
people and Hannah (Kerry
Godliman), not necessarily
in that order.
Hannah runs Broadhill,
a small improvised retire-
ment home that functions as
family for both its residents
and its staff. The old folk
of Derek are treated with
admirable respect and are
mercifully unburdened by
the quaint lasciviousness/
profanity/racism so often
forced upon senior charac-
ters. (Dereks overwhelm-
ing soundtrack, however,
does imply an unfortunate,
and unnecessary, saintli-
ness.)
Likewise, Hannah is a
miracle of both believability
and emotional resonance.
Godliman is the best thing
about Derek, which,
to his credit, Gervais
seems more than happy to
acknowledge.
The rest of the cast
well, Kev (David Earl) is a
man only Derek could love.
Hes grimy and obscene
and, frankly, a big drag on
the narrative for the price of
a few penis jokes.
Longtime Gervais col-
league Karl Pilkington
fares better as Dougie, the
jaded loner with the heart
of gold. Hes on hand to
deliver diatribes against
the forces working against
Broadhill.
A series of volunteers
also wander through
Broadhill, ostensibly doing
community service but
actually absorbing the
many lessons of love and
tolerance that Derek has to
offer.
Derek is the heart of
Broadhill. And if you dont
believe it, you will be told
several times per episode,
which quickly becomes irri-
tating.
Though not as irritat-
ing as Gervais unfortu-
nate reliance on physical
tics slouched shoulders,
bad hair, an absurdly over-
worked under bite, crazy

sweaters to dene his
character.
When the pilot for
Derek aired in the U.K., it
provoked a restormof com-
plaints from people who saw
Gervais as mocking those
with autism. But it isnt
meanness that aficts his
performance, its insecurity.
Derek follows the moc-
kumentary style and when
Gervais isnt consumed with
looking goofy, when he is
avoiding the cameras eye
as he speaks of love and loss
and his own understanding
of the universe, Derek is a
thing of quiet beauty. Its
mournful, wise and serene.
Gervais is asking us to
accept the power of a simple
nature; Derek is at its best
when he does the same.

HOW TO CONTACT:
Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Ange-
les, CA 90069
For more Sudoku go to www.timesleader.com
O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: Im 8
years old and in sec-
ond grade. Im writ-
ing because Im be-
ing bullied at school.
Im really smart, and
at my school thats a
really bad thing. I try
hard to be nice, but here thats worse
than being smart.
The teachers didnt help me with
the bullies, so I stopped telling them.
My mom told everyone she could
about the bullies, but nobody helps. It
keeps getting worse over time. Every
day someone picks on me, pushes me
or makes fun of me. Please help me.
Feeling Torn in Texas
Dear Feeling Torn: Because you
havent told your teachers that the
bullying hasnt stopped, they may
think that its no longer going on. Tell
them again what you are experienc-
ing, and be sure your mother knows.
She should discuss this with your
teacher. If things dont get better, she
needs to talk to the principal and, if
necessary, the school board. Many
schools offer programs that discour-
age bullying and train students who
can help.
As a last resort, your mother
should consult a lawyer. You have a
right to an education thats free from
this kind of pressure. Lawsuits have
been filed and won because school
districts didnt give it the attention
they should have. Show this to your
mother and tell her you wrote it.
Dear Abby: I am agoraphobic. Al-
though I have managed to make ac-
commodations for special occasions
like birthday parties and dinners with
my family, I am not comfortable at
extremely large gatherings.
My parents understand this, but my
sister and brother-in-law think that if
Id just try harder, everything would
work out. Abby, I must take a mild
tranquilizer to go to small gather-
ings, and I have told them this. Would
people tell someone who is allergic to
something to just try harder? How
can I explain this better?
Afraid in Taylorsville, Utah
Dear Afraid: Im sorry to say this,
but individuals have been known to
give people with severe food allergies
items containing their trigger foods
because they are convinced just a
little wont hurt them.
Your sister and brother-in-law do
not understand phobias. A medical
professional might be able to explain
it to them, but until theyre ready to
consult one, it would be healthier for
you to limit your time with them.
Dear Abby: My wife and I disagree
about when it is acceptable to yawn.
I believe a public yawn during dinner
or conversation is not appropriate.
She sees no reason why a natural hu-
man trait should be stifled.
Again, my assertion is that yawning
denotes boredom or lack of interest
in what people are conversing about
or doing. What are your thoughts?
Not a Yawner in Flagstaff, Ariz.
Dear Not A Yawner: My thoughts
are similar to an observation made
by English writer G.K. Chesterton
(1874-1936), who said, A yawn is
a silent shout. I have never seen
anyone who is intensely interested in
something yawn, and to do it in the
presence of others implies that the
yawner is tired, bored or otherwise
not fully engaged.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Intelligent second-grader is all alone in facing the schoolyard bullies
To receive a collection of Abbys most memo-
rable and most frequently requested po-
ems and essays, send a business-sized, self-
addressed envelope, plus check or money
order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear
Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box 447, Mount Mor-
ris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). The
overriding feeling is that youre
on your way. Where to? Does
that really matter at this ripe
moment of fresh optimism? Go
forward with gusto.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Where
your attention goes, so goes
your love. That statement may
seem incorrect if youre send-
ing a great deal of attention in a
negative direction. People have
been known to love their prob-
lems, though. Why not you?
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Avoid
speaking in generalities. You will
be stunningly charismatic as you
put your own spin on things and
mention the details that matter
to you most.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Is it
true that traveling light equals
traveling happy? You wont think
so if you forget a key item. And
if presenting to a crowd is on the
agenda, theres no such thing as
being too prepared.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Delusions
are like property. You wouldnt
dream of robbing another per-
son of his delusions unless those
delusions were causing real peril.
The truth will come out when its
supposed to.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You
have a low tolerance for verbal
indulgence, and thats only fair.
People like you, who do not
easily (or ever) talk about their
issues, might resent having to
listen to those who do.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Not only
are you determined to protect
those who are younger, smaller
and weaker, but you also encour-
age others to uphold the spirit
of valor.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). In some
situations, it is appropriate to
hide your feelings. But dont hide
them so well that you forget
where you put them. Youll get
your moment of release tonight.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It
isnt always the case, but today
doing things the right way is
overrated. Do it your way, and
see if that doesnt save you a lot
of time. Bonus: The result will
have your stamp on it.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
The act of measuring a thing
alters the measurement because
attention is an actual force. Also,
everything you observe will be
changed by the fact that you
were there to observe it.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Life
will bring you an experience that
reinforces the fact that the way
you think of yourself is differ-
ent from the way others think
of you. In general, you are much
harder on yourself than they are.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The
cleverness of the human brain is
exemplified in its ability to find
reasons to support whatever
premise it is in love with at the
moment. You realize that you,
too, have this handicap and
therefore cant take yourself too
seriously.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Sept. 14). A
kind of purification allows you
to start new in October. The end
of the year shows you lighter,
brighter and free from mental
clutter. Getting what you want
wont take anything away from
others; rather, it will be good for
all when December rolls around.
Your lucky numbers are: 25, 12,
3, 39 and 5.
