With three weeks remaining to make
changes to the 2012 budget, Luzerne
County Council members are at a stand-
still on amendments to balance the
spending plan.
Interim Manager Tom Pribula said
Wednesday hes still awaiting direction
from council since his most recent pro-
posal failed to garner majority support.
The topic may come up at tonights work
session.
Pribula had pitched a plan to increase
taxes 2 percent and use $1.4 million in
past borrowed capital funding to repay
debt. There also would be about 56 lay-
offs.
Under home rule, the manager pre-
sents the budget and at least six of the 11
council members must approve it. It
makes no sense to propose something
that wont be adopted, Pribula said.
The county must revert to the budget
adopted by former commissioners if an
amendment isnt approved. The commis-
sioner version contains unattainable reve-
nue goals, requires 140 layoffs and will
prompt litigation from court branches
over deep cuts, Pribula said.
Roughly 103 layoffs would be necessary
if council omits the 2 percent tax hike and
$1.4 million in capital funding, Pribula
What budget changes council would approve unknown
The county must revert to the budget
adopted by former commissioners if
an amendment isnt approved.

HARRISBURG A narrowly
divided Pennsylvania Supreme
Court on Wednesday invalidated
a plan to redraw state House and
Senate district lines, calling the
redistricting approach contrary
to law and throwing into disar-
ray plans by candidates and par-
ties for this years General As-
sembly races.
The two-page order sending
the plan back to the Legislative
Reapportionment Commission
said current district lines will re-
main until the commission
comes up with a new plan that
passes legal muster, which could
mean changes may not take ef-
fect for two
years.
The fact
that the court
has ... allowed
the 2001plan to
stay in effect
leads me to be-
lieve they think
it could take a
little bit of
time to work
up a new one,
said Senate Mi-
nority Leader
Jay Costa, D-Al-
legheny, the on-
ly member of
the five-man
commission to
vote against it.
Costa said a
restarted proc-
ess could take
weeks or months, depending on
the details of the majoritys writ-
ten opinion, which has not yet
been released.
At least for the time being, I
think that the 2001 districts may
be on pretty solid ground as we
go forward, Costa told reporters
in a conference call late Wednes-
day.
The commission consists of
the Republican and Democratic
floor leaders fromthe House and
Senate, along with a fifth mem-
ber, an appointed judge.
The plan the court threw out
by a 4-3 vote was opposedby Sen-
ate Democrats and others, who
arguedina court sessionMonday
that there was not sufficient rea-
son to split some counties and

A woman arrested in Novem-
ber by state drug agents when
methamphetamine labs were
shut down in Luzerne and Co-
lumbia counties was charged
again Tuesday with supplying a
medication used to cook the
homemade narcotic.
State drug agents with the At-
torney Generals Bureau of Nar-
cotics Investigation allege Chris-
tina Pearson, 32, purchased pseu-
doephedrine at various pharma-
cies in Luzerne County, knowing
it was being used to make meth-
amphetamine, according to
charges filed.
Pearson allegedly purchased a
total of 16.4 grams of the medica-
tion, which is sold behind the
counter without a prescription at
most pharmacies, on Dec. 14,
Dec. 23, Dec. 30, Jan. 5 and twice
on Jan. 10.
The sale of pseudoephedrine
requires buyer to swipe their
drivers licenses or identification
cards in a card reader prior to the
purchase.
According to the U.S. Drug En-
forcement Administration, pseu-
doephedrine is one of many in-
gredients, including brake fluid
and drain cleaner, used to manu-
facture methamphetamine.
Pearson allegedly told drug
agents that she acquired pseu-
doephedrine
andgaveit toan
unnamed per-
son in ex-
change for
methampheta-
mine, accord-
ing to the crimi-
nal complaint.
She was arraigned by District
Judge Rick Cronauer in Wilkes-
Barre on seven counts of posses-
sion of chemicals with intent to
manufacture a controlled sub-
stance. She was jailed at the Lu-
zerne County Correctional Facil-
ity for lack of $20,000 bail.
Pearson was among 25 people
charged in Operation Explosive
Impact, an investigation that
shut down 16 meth labs in Lu-
zerne and Columbia counties in
November.
Court records indicate Pearson
purchased the medication in De-
cember and January while she
was free on $50,000 bail she post-
ed in Columbia County on Nov.
22.
Drug agents linked Pearson to
a meth lab on Winding Road in
Jonestown, Columbia County,
where she was charged with sup-
plying Herbert Graves, 34, with
the same medication to cook
methamphetamine, according to
arrest records.
Hargraves, of Cragle Hill Road,
is facing a series of drug charges
in Columbia County Court.
Pearson is scheduled for a pre-

HARRISBURG Area legislators fa-
vor reducing the size of the Pennsylva-
nia House of Representatives by nearly
25 percent.
A bill that calls for trimming House
membershipto153fromthecurrent 203
members was approved Wednesday by
an18-6 vote of the House State Govern-
ment Committee, said Speaker of the
House Sam Smith, R-Jefferson/Arm-
strong/Indiana. The bill now heads to
the House floor.
There is nothing magical about the
number 203, in fact, it
came about by acci-
dent, yet reports and
studies have indicated
that groups of more
than 150 tend to be
less efficient, Smith
said in a release. Re-
aching a consensus
with 203 people on major and contro-
versial issues has proven more difficult
in recent times.
Changing the size of the legislature
requires an amendment to the state
Constitution, which means the same
bill must be debated and passed in two
consecutive sessions, then approved by
voters. If the move is successful, the
changes would not happen until after
the 2020 census.
Rep. Gerald Mullery, D-Newport
Township, a co-sponsor of the bill, HB
153, said reducing the size of the Gener-
al Assembly, currently the second large-
st and second most expensive in the na-
tion, would reduce costs to taxpayers.
Mullery said the House and Senate
pay about $119 million a year in salaries
alone, with more than 200 people mak-
ing at least $80,000. He said legislators
employ hundreds of legislative assist-
ants, district office staff and constituent
outreach specialists, and operate a net-
work of about 400 district offices scat-
tered around Pennsylvania.
We are one of only four full-time, pro-
fessional state legislatures, Mullery
said. I believe we should return to a
part-time, citizen-led body.
Lets start with the cost savings asso-
ciatedwiththe reductionof seat holders
and their staffs, he said. Similar legis-

WILKES-BARRE A lawsuit filed
in Luzerne County Court Tuesday
asks that a former physician return
over $900,000 worth of shares in
Wendys Restaurant franchises to his
deceased wifes estate.
The lawsuit, filed by attorney
Ralph Kates on behalf of KALA-GP
Inc., asks for the
shares to be return-
ed to the estate of
Adele Alexanderian,
the wife of former
physician Harry
Alexanderian, of
West Pittston.
The suit names
Harry Alexanderian
as a defendant, as well as his chil-
dren David Alexanderian and Marijo
Paulus, who are named as benefici-
aries under their mothers estate.
According to the lawsuit, about 11
Wendys franchises are controlled by
partnership agreements involving a
number of individuals.
Harry Alexanderian had been a
shareholder, but in 2004 was crimi-
nally charged, which constituted a
violation of his partnership agree-
ment, therefore, having to give up
his ownership interests.
Alexanderian, 85, was charged in
2004 with dispensing controlled
substances outside of the scope of
professional practice with no med-
ical purpose. He pleaded guilty to
that charge, as well as Medicaid
fraud and unlicensed treatment of
drug addiction, and was sentenced
in May 2005 to six months house
arrest followed by two years proba-
tion.
Several wrongful death lawsuits
followed, where relatives of former
patients alleged Alexanderian sub-
scribed their loved ones prescrip-
tions that ultimately led to their
deaths.
Alexanderian gave the shares to
his wife, the suit says, and she
passed away in September 2008,
with a total of $951,108 in partner-
ship interests.
The lawsuit states a partnership
agreement outlines that the death of
a partner triggers a mandatory sale
and purchase of that partners inter-
ests to the remaining partners.
Alexanderian became the executor
of his wifes estate, the suit says, and
Alexanderian was notified in August
2009 that he had to sell the shares.
Alexandrian had not sold the
shares, the suit says, in violation of
the shareholders agreement.
The suit asks that the shares be
placed in the estate of Adele Alexan-
derian and that the plaintiffs be
awarded more than $50,000, plus in-
terest and costs.
Alexanderians attorney, Robert
Marsh, did not return a message
seeking comment Wednesday.

CAIRO
Uprising anniversary marked
H
undreds of thousands of Egyptians
thronged major squares across
Egypt on Wednesday to mark the first
anniversary of the uprising that top-
pled Hosni Mubarak, in rallies that
turned into a show of strength by secu-
lar groups in their competition with
the countrys powerful Islamists over
demands for an end to military rule.
Cairos Tahrir Square, the epicenter
of the 18 days of protests against Mub-
arak, was transformed into the focal
point of the rivalry between revolu-
tionary activists who want to show
they can still mobilize the street and
the Muslim Brotherhood, who emerged
as Egypts dominant political force
after a landslide victory in parliament
elections.
The secular activists urge continued
protests to force the immediate ouster
of the generals who took power after
Mubaraks fall, saying they are just as
dictatorial as the former president.
BAGHDAD
U.S. lost Iraq, Al-Qaida says
The U.S. pulled its troops out of Iraq
because its economy is collapsing and
it needed to save money, an al-Qaida
front group said in a message posted
on its website Wednesday, its first
online comment since the U.S. com-
pleted its pullout last month after nine
years of war.
Al-Qaida was one of the main U.S.
enemies in Iraq. It was behind some of
the deadliest attacks on U.S. soldiers,
Iraqi security forces and American-
backed government institutions. Since
the U.S. pullout, al-Qaida and other
Sunni militants have stepped up at-
tacks on Shiites, killing more than 170
people since the beginning of the year
and raising concern that the surge in
violence and an escalating political
crisis might deteriorate into a civil war.
HARRISBURG
Rendell: Kill food stamp test
Former Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Ren-
dell said Wednesday his successor, Gov.
Tom Corbett, should cancel plans to
deny food stamps to people deemed by
the state to have too much in personal
assets.
Rendell hand-delivered a three-page
letter to Republican Corbetts offices
that warned an asset test would be
expensive to administer and harmful to
the economy, particularly in poor
neighborhoods where food stamps are
often a major source of business for
small grocery stores.
Corbett spokesman Kevin Harley
said an asset test will be implemented
by the Department of Public Welfare in
the coming months, but the adminis-
tration has not decided its dollar-value
level.
WASHINGTON
Planting zones changed
Global warming is hitting not just
home, but garden. The color-coded
map of planting zones often seen on
the back of seed packets is being up-
dated by the government, illustrating a
hotter 21st century.
Its the first time since 1990 that the
U.S. Department of Agriculture has
revised the official guide for the na-
tions 80 million gardeners, and much
has changed. Nearly entire states, such
as Ohio, Nebraska and Texas, are in
warmer zones.
The new guide, unveiled Wednesday
at the National Arboretum, arrives just
as many home gardeners are receiving
their seed catalogs and dreaming of
lush flower beds in the spring.

WASHINGTON The ap-
plause rolled through the big
chamber, growing ever louder
as hundreds of Republicans
and Democrats suddenly real-
ized Rep. Gabrielle Giffords
was back in the House.
But this time she had come
to say farewell.
Fellow lawmakers gave her a
fitting send-off: cheers, hugs, a
cascade of tributes and plenty
of tears in a rare moment of po-
litical unity.
A year since that fateful Sat-
urday morning when Giffords
was severely wounded during a
shooting rampage in her home
district, the Arizona congress-
woman resigned on Wednes-
day with a plea for civility
and a hint that shell be back on
the national stage. For now, the
41-year-old said, her move-
ments and speech still halting,
she needs tofocus onher recov-
ery.
For all the kind words show-
ered on her, Giffords reflected
inher resignationletter about a
level of respect that seems like
an aberration these days in a
bitterly divided Washington.
In her five years in Congress,
she said, Always I fought for
what I thought was right. But
never did I question the charac-
ter of those with whom I dis-
agreed. Never did I let pass an
opportunity to join hands with
someone just because he or she
held different ideals.
Giffords friend Rep. Debbie
Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., be-
came emotional before reading
Giffords resignation letter in
the well of the House. Rep. Jeff
Flake, R-Ariz., held Giffords
hand. House Speaker John
Boehner, R-Ohio, cried after
Giffords slowly made her way
to the podium and handed him
the envelope with her resigna-
tion letter.
Last January, a gunman
opened fire at Giffords Con-
gress on Your Corner event in
Tucson, killing six people and
wounding 13, including Gif-
fords who suffered a gunshot
wound to her head. She has
spent the past year recovering,
showing up in the House just
once last August tovote onrais-
ing the nations borrowing au-
thority.

WASHINGTON The U.S. Army
plans to slash the number of combat bri-
gades from 45 to as low as 32 in a broad
restructuring of its fighting force aimed
at cutting costs and reducing the service
by about 80,000 soldiers, according to
U.S. officials familiar with the plans.
Officials said the sweeping changes
will likely increase the size of each com-
bat brigade general-
ly by adding another
battalion in an effort
to ensure that those re-
maining brigades have
the fighting capabilities
they need when they go
to war. Abrigade is usu-
ally about 3,500 sol-
diers, but can be as large as 5,000 for the
heavily armored units. Abattalion is usu-
ally between 600-800 soldiers.
The brigade restructuring is intended
to save money without eroding the mil-
itarys ability to protect the country and
wage war when needed. Army officials
contend that while there would be fewer
brigades, building them bigger will give
them more capabilities and depth.
Reducing the overall number of bri-
gades will also eliminate the need for the
headquarters units that command and
oversee them.
Officials acknowledged that merging
battalions together into larger brigades
could shift some soldiers to different
bases across the country, although that
effort could be stymied by members of
Congress who dont like to see the staff-
ing decline at bases that feed the local
economy. Military leaders, fromDefense
Secretary Leon Panetta on down, insist
the cuts will not hurt the forces effective-
ness.

MOGADISHU, Somalia Held cap-
tive since last fall, an ailing American
woman and a Danish man are safely on
their way home after a bold, dark-of-
night rescue by U.S. Navy SEALs. The
commandos slipped into a Somali en-
campment, shot and killed nine captors
and whisked the hostages to freedom.
The raids success was a welcome bit
of news for President Barack Obama,
who was delivering his State of the
Union speech as the mission was wrap-
ping up Tuesday night. He did not men-
tion it in his address but dropped a hint
upon arriving in the House chamber by
telling Defense Secretary Leon Panetta,
Good job tonight.
It was the secondsplashy SEALTeam
6 success in less than a year, following
last Mays killing of Osama bin Laden in
Pakistan.
The Pentagon was mostly tight-
lipped about details on Wednesday, cit-
ing a need to preserve the secrecy that
can give SEALs and other special oper-
ations forces an edge against the terror-
ists, criminals and others they are or-
dered to kill or capture around the
world under hazardous and often hos-
tile conditions.
After planning and rehearsal, the So-
malia rescue was carried out by SEAL
Team 6, officially known as the Naval
Special Warfare Development Group,
according to two U.S. officials who
spoke on condition of anonymity to dis-
cuss a secret mission. The same outfit
did the bin Laden mission, the biggest
counter-terror success of Obamas presi-
dency.
One official said the SEALs parachut-
ed from U.S. Air Force aircraft before
moving on foot, apparently undetected,
to the outdoor encampment where they
found American Jessica Buchanan, 32,
and Poul Hagen Thisted, a 60-year-old
Dane, who had been kidnapped in So-
malia last fall.

es or give up 12 days of paid work
this year options that would have
demonstrated shared sacrifice
and reduce forced layoffs.
At one point in the meeting,
union representative Paula Schnel-
ly told council members to come to
the courthouse the day workers are
laid off to watch them cry.
Be there. Youre making this de-
cision, so be there for it and experi-
ence it with me and everyone else,
said Schnelly, of the American Fed-
eration of State, County & Munici-
pal Employees, or AFSCME.
Schnelly said 36 of the 56 layoffs
would be from AFSCME units.
The union has had four rounds of
layoffs since 2004, reducing the
membership from 620 when she
started as union president seven
years ago to a current 480, she
said.
Senior citizens weigh in
Councilman Eugene Kelleher,
who is among the five council
members willing to approve Prib-
ulas latest proposal, told union
representatives senior citizens
have called him asking why they
should pay more if unions wont
freeze their wages.
Council members Rick Morelli,
Stephen J. Urban, Rick Williams
and Elaine Maddon Curry said in a
straw vote Monday that they dont
support Pribulas latest proposal.
Councilmen Stephen A. Urban and
Harry Haas were not there, but
both have expressed opposition to
a tax hike. Haas said Wednesday
that he has not changed his stance.
A 2-percent hike would increase
taxes about $10.50 on a $100,000
property.
Councilman Tim McGinley said
Monday he never expected to sup-
port a tax increase but has grave
concerns services will be compro-
mised with 103 layoffs.
Stephen J. Urban said during
Tuesdays council meeting that he
had to bounce back after two pri-
vate sector layoffs in recent years
and said officials should not cave
in to the demands of employees.
Councilman Edward Brominski
also broached the topic Tuesday,
saying a tax increase and 19 layoffs
during his first year as a county
commissioner in 1980 allowed the
county to get back on solid finan-
cial footing.
Exploring options
Morelli has been pressing Prib-
ula and fellow council members to
explore more temporary solutions
to get through the year without a
tax increase and to reduce layoffs.
He said the county could save
$390,700 with a 10-day furlough
for non-union workers, divert
$500,000 in liquid fuel funding
from road projects to cover salaries
and generate $300,000 by forcing
non-union workers to pay more
than10 percent toward health care.
Eliminating health care for non-
union solicitors and obtaining an
estimated $500,000 in up-front
cash from back-tax liens should al-
so be explored, he said.
Pribula said most non-union em-
ployees have gone without raises
for several years and questions the
fairness of singling them out for
concessions that wont be made by
union workers.
He wants to explore higher
health care contributions for all
workers not just management
but said it wont happen by the
Feb. 15 budget adoption deadline
because detailed analysis is re-
quired.
Running out of patience Mon-
day, Pribula advised council
against repeating sins of the past
by padding the budget with iffy
revenue or too many one-time fix-
es.
The bright side is youve got a
new manager coming in thats go-
ing to have all the answers and hes
going to solve all your problems
and everythings going to run like a
clock, Pribula said in exaspera-
tion.
Council Chairman Jim Bobeck
wrapped up Mondays session, ad-
vising council members to consid-
er Pribulas proposal or the
stripped-down version that has no
tax hike and103 layoffs. The major-
ity of council doesnt want to live
with the budget adopted by com-
missioners, he said.
Im at a little bit of a loss here to
know where to move at this one,
Bobeck said, telling Pribula,
Theres not much more you can
change or do.

The bright side is youve
got a new manager com-

Interim county manager Tom Pribula
To county council, which wont approve

He said the commission
staff can construct new maps
in short order if the courts
opinion focuses narrowly on a
small number of districts. If
the opinion is broader, Pileggi
said, that could take time.
Were in uncharted territo-
ry here, he said.
During three hours of oral
argument on Monday over
nine challenges to the plan,
Del Sole said producing dis-
tricts with nearly equal pop-
ulationwas the priority, based
on previous Supreme Court
decisions.
This court is being asked
to reject 40 years of jurispru-
dence in order to sustain the
appeal, Del Sole told the
court.
But Justice Max Baer ques-
tioned whether the court was
being asked to uphold the
plan simply because it had
never invalidated one in the
past.
Thats a self-fulfilling
prophesy, isnt it? Baer said
Monday.
Part of the court order
changed certain deadlines for
the primary petition process
for candidates, and the major-
ity said any signatures on
nominating petitions that
were collected on Tuesday
and Wednesday, the first two
days of the three-week pet-
ition circulation period,
would be considered valid.
Chief Justice Ronald Cas-
tille, a Republican, joined
Democrats Baer, Seamus P.
McCaffery and Debra
McCloskey Todd in ruling
against the plan.
towns, and that decisions
were overly drivenby political
considerations.
Im frankly surprised that
any judge wouldhave votedto
remand this plan, said Sen-
ate Majority Leader Dominic
Pileggi, R-Delaware. He and
others said they expected the
written opinion will shed
more light on where the proc-
ess goes from here.
Theres more that we dont
know than we know, Pileggi
told reporters in the Capitol.
A spokesman for House
Majority Leader Mike Turzai,
R-Allegheny, said the invali-
dated plan met constitutional
and court precedential stan-
dards.
Until we get an opinion,
we wont know what needs
fixed, but well respond ac-
cordingly, said Turzai
spokesman Steve Miskin.
The House Democratic
floor leader, Allegheny Coun-
ty Rep. Frank Dermody, said
he respected the decision and
wouldaddress the courts con-
cerns once they are known.
The fifth member, Republi-
can Stephen J. McEwen Jr.,
president judge emeritus of
the state Superior Court, did
not immediately return a
phone message. He was
named to the commission by
the high court after the other
four members could not agree
on a chairman.
The one-paragraph dissent-
ing statement, written by Jus-
tice Thomas Saylor and
joined by justices J. Michael
Eakin and Joan Orie Melvin,
said they were not persuaded
the plan was contrary to law
as reflected in the existing
precedent.
Although I amreceptive to
the concern that past deci-
sions of the court may suggest
an unnecessarily stringent ap-
proach to equalization of pop-
ulation as between voting dis-
tricts, I believe this could be
addressed via prospective
guidance from the court,
Saylor wrote.
The plan the commission
approved moved some House
and Senate districts across
the state, and Senate Demo-
crats argued they were able to
produce a map that divided
far fewer municipalities and
counties.
The Pennsylvania Constitu-
tion says the 50 Senate and
203 House districts needto be
of compact and contiguous
territory as nearly equal in
population as practicable,
and that only absolutely nec-
essary divisions should be
made to counties, cities,
towns, boroughs, townships
or wards.
We think you need to ex-
plain why you do some of
these splits, including House
districts that are split, when
youve got a community thats
like 5,000 folks, and they have
three different legislators,
Costa said.
Pileggi said he has asked
commission lawyer Joseph
Del Sole to seek more clarity
about how legislative candi-
dates should proceed. The
primary is April 24.
The order is not as clear as

SCRANTON Dupont bor-
ough has agreed to settle a law-
suit filed by a man who alleged
police unfairly targeted juveniles
who patronized his arcade, caus-
ing him to lose customers that
led to the closure of the business.
William DeFazio filed suit in
November against the borough
and Police Chief Anthony De-
Mark, claiming violations of his
due process rights for actions De-
Mark took relating to DeFazios
Main Street arcade, Weve Got
Game, and later against a bar he
opened at the location, The Cor-
ner Pocket.
DeFazio, of Roaring Creek
Township, opened the arcade in
2007. The suit alleged that from
the start, DeMark and other offi-
cers repeatedly harassed juve-
niles who patronized the busi-
ness, demanding they provide
personal information and threat-
ening them with arrest for loiter-
ing and curfew violations.
DeFazio later transferred a li-
quor license to the premises to
The Corner Pocket Lounge.
Once again, police harassed cus-
tomers, stopping them and ques-
tioning themfor no apparent rea-
son, he claimed.
The lawsuit, originally filed in
Luzerne County Court, was
transferredtofederal court inDe-
cember. The case went before a
mediator, resulting in a settle-
ment that was reached Wednes-
day.
Details of the settlement were
not available as the agreement
has not yet been finalized.
Matthew Carmody, attorney
for Dupont, said neither DeMark
nor the borough admitted any
wrongdoing. The borough
agreed to the settlement because
it was the most cost-effective and
efficient way to resolve the mat-
ter, he said.
Timothy Polishan, attorney for
DeFazio, did not return a phone
message seeking comment.

SCRANTON The former
code enforcement officer for
Pittston on Wednesday filed a
federal lawsuit against the city,
alleging he was fired because
hehadsupportedapolitical op-
ponent of Mayor Jason Klush.
The lawsuit, filed by Greg
Gulick, is the second retalia-
tion lawsuit to be filed against
the city in less than two weeks.
Former Police Chief Jeff
Tayoun filed suit on Jan. 11, al-
leging he was demoted by
Klush after Tayoun reported
wrongdoing by another officer.
According to the suit by at-
torney Barry Dyller of Wilkes-
Barre:
Gulick had worked as code
officer since2006andhadbeen
a strong supporter of former
Mayor Joe Keating, who lost to
Klushinthe May2010primary.
The suit alleges Gulick was
fired in September 2010 so the
city could hire Joe Moskovitz,
whomGulick claims is a friend
of one or more city council
members.
Moskovitz, according to the
suit, hadlost his jobas borough
administrator for Hopatcong
Borough, N.J. after he was ar-
rested for drunken driving and
possession of a small amount
of marijuana in January 2009.
Attorney SamFalcone, solic-
itor for Pittston, said Mosko-
vitz told council members
about his conviction prior to
his hiring.
Myunderstandingis he was
very upfront with them, Fal-
cone said. Everyone felt the
guy had paid his debt to socie-
ty.
Moskovitz said Wednesday
he was grateful council gave
himthe chance to redeemhim-
self. He questioned why his
conviction, which was report-
ed by several media outlets
when he was hired, is an issue
in Gulicks case.
A former employee can
bring suit against their em-
ployer, but I dont see why my
incident is germane to the is-
sue, Moskovitz said. Its
merely anattempt tosmear me
and the city in an attempt to
pad his lawsuit.
Dyller defendedthe decision
toincludetheinformation, say-
ing it goes to councils motiva-
tion to fire Gulick.
They fired Gulick so they
could help him (Moskovitz)
out, Dyller said. The reason
he needed help was because of
what happenedinNewJersey.
Moskovitz was hired as city
administrator a few days after
council terminated Gulick.
Funding for his position came
from the salary that had been
earmarked for Gulick.
Gulicks suit alleges he was
notifiedthere was going to be a
hearing regarding his job per-
formance. He alleges the hear-
ing was a sham because
some council members had al-
ready decided to fire him.
Falcone said he could not
comment on specific allega-
tions inthe suit, but he is confi-
dent the city acted appropri-
ately when it eliminated Gul-
icks position.
The suit seeks unspecified
damages for wrongful termina-
tion and violations of Gulicks
right to free speech and due
process.
Gulick also is seeking dam-
ages for violation of federal la-
bor laws, alleging he was re-
quired to work more than 35
hours per week without com-
pensation for the extra hours.
Ex-Pittston code officer
files fed suit against city
Gulick claims he was fired
because he backed a political
foe of Mayor Jason Klush.

U.S. Air Force. He was stationed in
France, and then posted to Bryan

at Texas A&M, where he took his
Bachelor of Science and M.S. de-
grees. He received his Ph.D. from

and our mother missed the warmer,
friendlier Texas culture. They

School of Veterinary Medicine in
1967; he retired in 1990.

WILKES-BARRE A former
child psychiatrist pleaded
guilty Wednesday to 66 counts
relating to the possession of
child pornography.
John Francis Theroux, 53, of
Charles Avenue, Kingston, en-
tered the plea before Luzerne
County Senior Judge Hugh
Mundy.
Assistant District Attorney
Albert Yacoub said Theroux
faces a maximum of seven
years in prison for each charge,
and will have to register his
address under Megans Law for
his entire life.
Mundy said Theroux will be
sentenced on May 1 after he is
evaluated by the state Sexual
Offenders Assessment Board.
Theroux was charged in Au-
gust after his estranged wife
turned over a file containing
pictures of nude children to a
therapist at a marital counsel-
ing session. The therapist re-
ported the pictures to Kingston
police.
Police searched the Theroux
residence on Aug. 26 and alleg-
edly uncovered 66 images of
nude children on a hard drive,
according to charges filed.
Theroux said during the
marital counseling session that
looking at pictures of young
girls is not illegal if there isnt
any sex acts involved, the
complaint says.
Theroux claimed his interest
in looking at young girls in-
creased when his wife made
him leave their bedroom.
Investigators searched the
Theroux house, where Mary
Theroux turned over a hard
drive and pictures that were in
a basket under clothes inside a
bedroom closet.
Theroux admitted to investi-
gators he used certain key-
words to search for child por-
nography, and even researched
the state child pornography
laws.
He believed since the chil-
dren werent engaged in sexual
acts, the images he was down-
loading were not considered
child pornography, according
to the complaint.
Therouxs attorney, Frank
Nocito, has previously said his
client retired from the U.S. Ar-
my in 2006 as a colonel, served
in Iraq and was assigned at the
West Point Military Academy
in New York.
At the time of his arrest,
Theroux resigned as a child
psychiatrist at the Childrens
Service Center of the Wyoming
Valley on South Franklin Street
in Wilkes-Barre. The center
provides adoption, psychiatric
evaluations, substance abuse
screenings and family therapy
services.

Movers appeared at Robert Po-
wells Butler Township law firm
Wednesday morning to clear out
the buildings contents evi-
dence that the once thrivingprac-
tice is closing.
Powell is serving an 18-month
prison sentence after pleading
guiltyinJuly2009to
charges of failing to
report a crime relat-
ing to his kickback
payments to former
county judges Mi-
chael Conahan and
Mark Ciavarella.
Former Luzerne County Proth-
onotaryJill Moran, whois affiliat-
ed with the Powell Law Group,
could not be reached for com-
ment Wednesday because her
voicemail boxat theButlerTown-
ship business was full.
No one answered the Powell
Law phone Tuesday. A represen-
tative of the moving company de-
clined comment. A message for
Powell representatives left with
the mover was not returned.
Attorney Jane Sebelin, who
represents the Powell LawGroup
in other matters, could not be re-
ached for comment Wednesday.
The Butler Township building
was listed in a county free-and-
clear back-taxauctioninAugust,
but was pulled after Dunmore-
based First National Community
Bank paid the $65,000 in taxes
owed on the property.
If the bank had not covered the
tax debt, it risked losing any op-
portunity to recoup some of the
millions of dollars in loans owed
by Powell and others.
People who buy properties at
that type of tax sale arent liable
for any back taxes, mortgages or
other liens against theproperties,
which meant the bank couldnt
force a newowner to pay the out-
standing loans.
The building on 5 acres is still
under the ownership of Powells
Big Kahuna Realty LLC, county
records show.
First National Community
Bank initiated mortgage foreclo-
sure proceedings on the property
in April 2010, but the filing has
been tied up in court.
Big Kahuna was ordered in De-
cember to cooperate with the
banks request for information in
the case, according to the latest
court filing.
Attorneys representing Powell
LawGroupappearedincourt ear-
lierthismonthtocontestFirstNa-
tionals claim demanding $5.9
million in loan repayments.
Powell attorneys argued the
payments and associated fees on
three loans are excessive.
In the largest loan, for $4.6 mil-
lion, the bank obtained judg-
ments against Moran, Powell, his
wife and several others in Febru-
ary 2009 related to the default of
loans for the Wright Township
townhouse project formerly
known as The Sanctuary.
In the two remaining loans, to-
taling about $1.3 million, lines of
credit were given to Moran and
Powell for working capital in
thelawpracticeandfor BigKahu-
na Realty, according to court pa-
pers.
All three judgments ordering
payments were entered against
the Powell Law Group in July
2011.

WILKES-BARRE A man who
police say purchased alcohol con-
sumed by juveniles and adults at a
party in July that ended in the vehic-
ular homicide of a 16-year-old was
accepted into the countys Acceler-
ated Rehabilitative Disposition pro-
bation program Wednesday.
Kenneth John Rushinski, 22, of
Charles Street, Luzerne, was en-
tered into the program for 12
months on a charge of selling/fur-
nishing liquor to minors. If he com-
pletes the program, his criminal re-
cord will be cleared.
Im so sorry, Rushinski said
Wednesday in court before hugging
Daniel Madry, the father of Brian
Madry, whowas killedina car wreck
following the party.
The two men embraced while
standing before Luzerne County Se-
nior Judge Hugh Mundy, who ex-
tendedhis sympathies toMadry and
his family.
Theres nothingI cansaythat can
follow (that hug), said Rushinskis
attorney, Frank Nocito. Nocito add-
ed Wednesday his client is extreme-
ly remorseful for what happened
that night and that a lesson was
learned.
Daniel Madry did not speak
Wednesday, allowing Assistant Dis-
trict AttorneyMamie Phillips toout-
line the background of the case to
Mundy.
BrianMadry, of Wright Township,
was killed in a wreck in Fairview
Township on July 18. He was a pas-
senger in a 2004 Kia Optima, driven
by Adam Fredmund, of Fairview
Township, that crashed on Lake
Road in Fairview Township.
Fredmund was later charged with
homicide by motor vehicle and oth-
er crimes and had been adjudicated
a delinquent by a county judge and
ordered to live in a group home in
September for an unspecified
amount of time.
Fairview Township cited Rushin-
ski with buying a 12-pack of beer, a
six-pack of Four Loko and a six-pack
of Twisted Tea for three women on
July 17.
Thethreewomen, whowereeven-
tually cited, arranged to buy the al-
cohol through Rushinski for a party
held at a pavilion at Fountain Lake
on Lake Road.
Authorities allege the alcohol was
consumed by at least six juveniles,
including Fredmund.
A civil lawsuit in the case is pend-
ing in Luzerne County Court in
which Carolyn and Daniel Madry fil-
ed suit against Fredmund, the Glen
Summit Company that owns Foun-
tain Lake and Rushinski.
In the lawsuit filed by attorneys of
the Anzalone Law Offices, Madrys
parents said they are seeking in ex-
cess of $300,000 in damages due to
the careless, negligent and reckless
acts of the defendants collectively.
Specifically, in regards to Rushin-
ski, the suit cites negligence in pro-
viding alcohol for minors.

PITTSTON Aman who
was found dead on a trail near
the Susquehanna River on
Tuesday committed suicide,
according to the Luzerne
County Coroners Office.
NANTICOKE Aman was
arraigned Wednesday in
Wilkes-Barre Central Court on
charged he attempted to rob
the Cocoa Hut convenience
store on Middle Road on Nov.
21.
Daniel Joseph Olshefski, 24,
of Burnett Street, Nanticoke,
was charged with criminal
attempt to commit robbery
and criminal attempt to com-
mit theft. He was jailed at the
Luzerne County Correctional
Facility for lack of $40,000
bail.
Police allege Olshefski con-
cealed his face with a mask
and demanded money froma
clerk at the convenience store.
The clerk refused to surrender
money and chased Olshefski
out of the store, according to
the criminal complaint.
Olshefski was arrested Jan.
4 by Newport Township police
on unrelated burglary charges.
Police said in the criminal
complaint Olshefski on Jan. 5
admitted to attempting to rob
the convenience store for
money to support a drug ad-
diction, the criminal com-
plaint says.

Careless teen drivers
prompted need for law
T
his letter to the editor is in response to
a letter appearing Jan. 17 by Jack
Walsh (New teen-driving law seen as
unnecessary).
Dont complain about the new law. It
was imposed due to actions by your peers.
You might very well be responsible, but
your friends are not. Thats why the law
was passed, to protect the innocent people
from irresponsible teens.
So dont complain to the lawmakers;
complain to your friends as you witness
their wrongdoings.

Writer backs objection to
womens event speaker
S
aturdays newspaper carried two letters
to the editor expressing opinions
against Bishop Joseph Bamberas oppo-
sition to Marjorie Margolies scheduled
appearance at the University of Scranton.
Are we to believe that Ms. Margolies pre-
sentation about women in politics will not
include any mention of her pro-choice
views? Even in the question-and-answer
session? The bishop has every reason to be
concerned.
Far too many views are propagated to
our youth in the name of tolerance while
little thought is given to whether or not
these youths have been given any moral
basis with which to determine good from
evil.
Would it surprise any of you to know
that less than 25 percent of our youths
receive any religious education? The bad
decisions they make corrupt their desti-
nies. How many bad choices does a
young woman make before she chooses
to abort her child?
There are obvious better choices than
Ms. Margolies to talk about women in
politics. Why not Congresswoman Michele
Bachmann? Shes no longer running for
president, and she has local ties.

Hospital shouldnt deny
jobs to those who smoke
O
n Feb. 1, Geisinger Health System will
stop hiring applicants who use tobac-
co. What does this mean for the fu-
ture?
There already is a nursing shortage; with
Geisinger discriminating against appli-
cants who use any type of tobacco, the
shortage will grow.
As a junior in high school and in the
Wilkes-Barre Area Career and Technology
Centers Health Assistants program, I
would like to be a registered nurse. I
smoke though, so after college if I apply
for a job with Geisinger, it will give me a
nicotine test. If I fail, I will not get the job.
In my mind if a person graduates from a
nursing program in the top five, but he or
she smokes, the person will be denied a
nursing career with Geisinger, and Geis-
inger will lose out on an excellent nurse.
If the shortage gets bigger, mistakes in
the hospital will be a scary possibility.
Many tragedies can occur with this new
policy.
Just because someone uses a type of
tobacco doesnt mean he or she should be
judged and denied a job.
I understand the health care system is
doing this because of insurance, but smok-
ing doesnt always cause health problems.
Smokers can live their whole lives with no
problems, just like nonsmokers, and non-
smokers can get lung cancer without it
being related to smoking.

Dont give platform
to pro-choice advocate
I
want to thank Bishop Joseph Bambera
for his consistent pro-life stance in his
homilies and for his participation in the
March for Life in Washington. Also for
asking the Rev. Kevin P. Quinn, the Uni-
versity of Scrantons president, to cancel
Ms. Marjorie Margolies invitation to be
the keynote speaker at the Ready to Run:
Campaign Training for Women program.
Catholic institutions are not supposed to
give awards, honors or platforms to
those who oppose the churchs funda-
mental positions, particularly regarding
abortion.
I know people have asked: Why dont
you attend the program? Ms. Margolies
probably will not even mention abortion.
The bottom line is she doesnt have to
mention it.
Why? Because she is coming to the
Democratic stronghold of Scranton. The
majority of women are largely liberals who
are pro-choice (actually pro-abortion).
On the other hand, you will never see
Ms. Margolies presenting this program in
an ultra-conservative area such as Lancas-
ter County.

Paterno will live forever
in hearts of PSU fans
W
ho is Penn State?
To answer the question, I would
have to say that the fans who rioted
because of football coach Joe Paternos
firing are not Penn State. The Penn State
University Board of Trustees, whose mem-
bers made a politically correct and fatal
decision to fire him, is not Penn State.
Thomas Campbell once said, To live in
hearts we leave behind is not to die. Joe,
who had such a monstrously positive im-
pact on the well-being of this country, will
never die.
Those of you who join me in this feeling
can proudly say, We are Penn State.

Shelter those in need
in diocesan buildings
I
thought churches received tax-exempt
status because they were helping the
poor and less fortunate?
If that is the case, why doesnt the bish-
op open up the houses the Diocese of
Scranton owns to the homeless and to
chronic drunks who want to make a
change? That solves two problems: needed
space for inebriates to change (helps keep
the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre community
from overcrowding services) and keeps
the property as church-owned (by aiding
those whom it is meant to serve).
Or am I totally missing the boat on this
one?

Writer believes abortion
is premeditated murder
W
e have been killing Gods little girls
and boys for 39 years.
The death toll of surgical abortion
is nearing 55 million, countless more by
chemical abortions and hundreds of mil-
lions more from contraceptives.
Thirty nine years is an awfully long time
for us to get our act together, but we go
around like lost sheep.
We have to speak and act for the voice-
less child in the womb. The womb is a
tomb; this is premeditated murder.
Please go and pray and witness for the
ones who have no voice.

T ITS BEST, the U.S.
Environmental Pro-
tectionAgencys deci-
siontotest well water
supplies in a Susquehanna
County town is merely insur-
ance that the supplies are safe.
At its worst, the federal agen-
cys action could be an indict-
ment of Pennsylvanias Depart-
ment of Environmental Protec-
tion.
Which proves true remains
to be seen. Samples will be tak-
en at 60 homes in Dimock over
the next three weeks andanaly-
sis will be conducted over a
five-week period.
The reason for the testing is
methane that was found in the
drinking water supplies, which
the DEP in 2008 said was the
result of faulty construction of
hydraulic fracturing drilling
wells inthe area byCabot Oil &
Gas Corp. The driller denies
causing the problems, but DEP
cited and fined Cabot. The
company had been filling resi-
dents 550-gallon water tanks
as part of a 2010 consent agree-
ment.
In November, though, the
company stopped providing
the water, and the DEP deter-
mined Cabot had met its obli-
gations. Residents who dont
agree asked the EPA to inter-
vene, and the agency decided
the information they provided
warranted further review.
The residents fears must be
addressed, and EPA testing is
thebest waytoaccomplishthat
goal. Although the DEP says it
has foundnoevidencetojustify
the EPAs actions, it nonethe-
less is not objectingtothe addi-
tional testing. If its own find-
ings are not confirmed,
though, the state departments
reputation will suffer.
Access to clean drinking wa-
ter is a basic human need, and
the residents of Dimock cant
be expected to sleep soundly at
night until they know whether
their supplies are safe.

MERICANS ON
Tuesday night sawan
upbeat and energetic
president who left no
doubt he was prepared to de-
fend his record and fight for his
re-election.
Barack Obama, delivering
his third State of the Union ad-
dress, effectively highlighted
his administrations successes,
such as the resur-
gence of the U.S. auto
companies and the
bipartisan trade
agreements.
He presented the
public and Congress
with a grab bag of ini-
tiatives. Some, like a
call for states to re-
quire students to stay in school
until they earn a diploma or
turn 18, were high-minded vi-
sions destined to go nowhere.
But other ideas, such as simpli-
fying training programs to
move from an unemployment
systemtoa re-employment sys-
tem, seemedfreshandpromis-
ing.
Obama placed a welcome
emphasis on continued devel-
opment of energysources, from
opening up offshore oil and gas
resources and pursuing natural
gas exploration to continued
development of clean energy
technologies. His administra-
tion needs to followup with de-
tails of howit will assure safety
of natural resources andprotect
against waste of taxpayer mon-
ey as in the Solyndra debacle.
The presidents calls for an
end to excessive tax breaks for
the very rich were on point. On
reform of the corporate tax
structure, Obamais right tocall
for an end to perverse incen-
tives that rewardcompanies for
moving jobs and profits over-
seas. But instead
of proposinga web
of new incentives,
why not simply
call for lowering
the tax rate and
broadening the
base something
thoughtful per-
sons across the po-
litical spectrum agree needs to
be done?
In one of the speechs feistier
declarations, Obama said, ...
anyone who tells you that
America is in decline or that
our influence has waned,
doesnt knowwhat theyre talk-
ing about. Well put.
On a disappointing note,
Obama offered no fresh ideas
about education. Also notably
absent were any substantive
ideas about entitlement reform
and debt reduction. Obama es-
peciallycannot shirkhis dutyto
show leadership in those are-
nas.

but for his love of the school and
his generosity.
He cared about the kids. He
wantedtosee us succeed. Sofor a

sion went past Beaver Stadium.
He loved us and
we loved him back,
Derk said. So saying
goodbye is very
tough.
Jay Paterno, the
coachs son and quar-

message to the
mourners viaTwitter.
Thank you to all
the people who turn-
ed out for my fathers

wrote. Very mov-
ing.
The elder Paterno
won two national ti-
tles and a Division I record 409
games over 46 seasons as head
coach. His cancer was disclosed
just nine days after he was forced
to leave the football program he
had worked with since1950.
But Wednesday was once again
a salute to Paternos life and ac-
complishments. The service, a
Roman Catholic Mass, was at-
tended by a veritable whos who
of Penn State and Paterno con-
nections.
Paternos family arrived about
anhour before the funeral service
on two blue school buses, the
same kindthe coachandhis team
rode to home games onfall Satur-
days. His wife of nearly six dec-
ades, Sue, sat intheseat tradition-
ally reserved for her husband and
was first off the bus, followed by
Jay.
Former defensive coordinator
Tom Bradley walked to the ser-
vice with NFL great Franco Har-
ris. Alsoinattendance were other
ex-NFL players including Matt
MillenandToddBlackledge, both
now TV analysts. Nike founder
Phil Knight and actor William
Baldwin were there, too.
Todays Mass
was a celebration.
We laid to rest a
great man, Bradley
said. Not so much
for the football vic-
tories ... He meant
so much to so many
people.
Charles Pittman,
who played for Pa-
terno in the 1960s,
also was at the
Mass.
It really focused
on the type of per-
sonJoePaternowas
his devotion to
his family, his wife, his grand-
kids, said Pittman, a senior vice
president for publishing at
Schurz Communications Inc., an
Indiana-based company that
owns television and radio sta-
tions and newspapers, and a
member of theBoardof Directors
of The Associated Press.
A family spokesman, Dan
McGinn, said Paternos grand-
children escorted the casket
down the aisle during the open-
ing procession, and again at the
end of the service. Jay Paterno
and his brother, Scott, were
among the pallbearers.
In between, during the service,
all of Paternos children spoke ex-
cept for Jay, who is scheduled to
talkat acampusmemorial service
Thursday at the Jordan Center.
Two of Paternos 17 grandchil-
drenalsotalkedandsharedthefa-
vorite moments collected among
the rest of the grandkids in-
cluding one instance when Pater-
no mistakenly drove over a bicy-
cle after returning home from
work.
Former defensive tackle An-
thony Adams, who carried a pro-
gram with a black-and-white pic-
ture of a smiling Paterno on the
cover, said the service was befit-
ting of his former coach, who
loved to be surrounded by family
and just talk.
On the other hand, Paterno al-
so was notorious for trying to
avoid the spotlight himself.
He wouldve been embar-
rassed. He wouldve hated it,
Millen said. He wouldve told us
toshut upalready. I guaranteeit.
Paterno didnt focus on the
scandal that led to his stunning
ouster, Scott Paterno has said,
and neither did mourners.
Jerry Sandusky, the former as-
sistant coach at the center of the
abuse scandal, has been charged
with molesting10 boys over a pe-
riod of 15 years. He has pleaded
not guiltyandisout onbail, await-

the days after Sanduskys arrest
for not going to authorities out-

an allegation against the retired
assistant in 2002. Paterno did no-
tify two of his superiors at Penn
State.

Former Nittany Lion
player on Joe Paterno
100 people gathered around the Nitta-
ny Lion shrine outside the adminis-
tration building about having lunches
with Paterno at a University Park
cafeteria in 1965. He prefaced his
comments by saying, There is an
invisible thread that binds all people
destined to meet regardless of time,
place or circumstance.
The student and then-assistant
football coach ate together 35 times,
said Kruczek.
I didnt know he was an assistant
coach until about the sixth lunch,
said Kruczek of Nesquehoning. I
thought he was a professor, a nerdy
professor at that point.
Paterno became head coach the
following year and held the position
for 46 years until last November when
the board of trustees fired him as
details of the child sex abuse scandal
of former assistant football coach
Jerry Sandusky emerged.
During those nearly 50 years, Kruc-
zek and his sons met Paterno on cam-
pus and at other events. The last
meeting in July between Kruczeks
youngest son and Paterno was at the
campus creamery where the then-
coach stopped in to pick up milk. The
two struck up a conversation with
Paterno asking the younger Kruczek
how his father Sonny was.
Kruczek ended his comments re-
ferring to the bond that developed
between him and Paterno. This
thread may stretch and it may tangle,
but it will never be broken, said
Kruczek.
Some at the vigil never met Paterno
and did not know Penn State without
Paterno.
Joe Paterno has been the one con-
stant thats been there, said Elliott
Gregory, 28, of West Hazleton
The Penn State alumnus and histo-
ry teacher in the Hazleton Area
School District came to pay his re-
spects at the passing of Paterno, an
event of historical significance for
Gregory.
For me its one of the first times of
going through something like this,
said Gregory.
As he stood waiting for the vigil to
begin, students carrying candles walk-
ed from the upper part of the campus
to the illuminated shrine of the white
lion. Some of those attending wore
white T-shirts, jackets or hooded tops
with a Penn State logo.
Printed in bold blue letters on the
back of the white top worn by
Dwayne Hilton of Berwick was the
beginning of the last verse of the
Penn State alma mater: May no act
of ours bring shame. On the front
was printed, Pride.
Hilton retired as director of student
affairs three weeks ago and worked for
the school for 32 years. He saw the
effect Paterno had on the school and
students. He actually changed the
university and taught a lot of people
how to live better, said Hilton.

THE TIMES LEADER THURSDAY, JANUARY 26, 2012
timesleader.com
It is clear now the addition of Eugene
Lewis elevated the Meyers basketball
team past arch-rival GAR and over the
top.
He is always the star of the show, the
guy you want to watch, the one who
turns heads as fast as he turns games
around whether Lewis is doing it on
a football field or a basketball court.
Nobodys courting him to shoot
hoops after his high school days are
done in a couple months.
Thats because Lewis is on his way to
play football for Penn State, where hes
destined to make the same impact as a
wide receiver for the Nittany Lions as
he did as a game-changer for Wyoming
Valley West.
Basketball is just a sport for fun, for
me, Lewis said. Its not going to get
me anywhere. Its just something I love
to do.
Meyers loves watching him do it.
The Mohawks landed Lewis for this
basketball season when his family
moved from the Valley West school
district and into Meyers territory after
the football year finished.
Then Lewis put the finishing touches
on a Meyers program trying to remain
king of the Wyoming Valley Conference
Division II.
He scored 24 points and had 15 re-
bounds Saturday against GAR in front
of a standing room only crowd at
Meyers High School in one of the most
dominating personal performances of
the young season.
My first time in that type of game,
playing in that type of atmosphere, it
was great, Lewis, a senior, said.
There were so many people there. The
rivalrys great, so intense.
His initial impact on it was just as
forceful, as he powered Meyers 54-48
victory and paved the way for GARs
first defeat of the season.
There was a magical moment in that
game when Lewis plucked an errant
shot out of the air, drove the length of
the court with it as two GAR players
snugly defended him, then hit an un-
derhanded, finger-roll layup to impress
the home crowd.
Its a tough move, to go through two
defenders, said Rasheed Moore, one of
the top returners from Meyers District
2 runner-up team of a year ago.
Its the type of move Lewis makes
whenever he wants to, it seems.
Theres a time and a point where
youve just got to be able to take over
the game, Lewis said, and do whatev-
er it takes to help your team win. I just
use my athletic ability to the best of my
ability.
His capability is admirable.
So much so, Moore came out of the
trainers room following his second-half
injury trying to imitate Lewis look.
OK, so thats an exaggeration.
It was pure coincidence that the
white bandage team trainers used to
circle Moores head in an effort to pro-
tect a cut above his eye resembled the
white headband Lewis was wearing.
But could you blame the rest of the
Mohawks if they did try to impersonate
a player who makes a habit of rising
above the rest to make the magnitude
of the moment his own?
It shows you what a Division I ath-
lete is all about, Meyers coach Pat
Toole said afterwards. As outstanding
an athlete as you just saw, hes a more
impressive young man. Hes courteous,
he looks you in the eye, hes a great
team kid.
It seems Lewis gives whatever team
he plays for an extra boost.
We believed we were going to be
back on top before he got here, Moore
said. When he came, it helped us
reach that next level.
Its an altitude few others can attain,
whether theyre trying to stop the
takeoff or going along for the ride.

PITTSBURGH For years, Penn
State University game days meant long
lines of cars andRVs bearing fans making
pilgrimages from all corners of Pennsyl-
vania to a school right in the middle of
the state, and by extension, to coach Joe
Paterno, the man long regarded as its
center.
The schools flagship campus, estab-
lished in 1855 in the small town of State
College and conceived as a place for
farmers to receive a scientific education,
sits in the states geographic center. But
its physical presence is also woven
throughout Pennsylvania, with two doz-
en campuses scattered across the state.
So Paternos death from cancer on
Sunday has created emotional ripples
that have spread throughout the univer-
sitys broad network of alumni, both
within the state and far beyond.
In a state where professional sports
loyalties are usually divided between
Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, the Penn
State Nittany Lions are a teamembraced
by all Pennsylvanians. His funeral
Wednesday, and the public mourning in
State College and throughout the com-
monwealth in the days following his
death Sunday, have proven that the
schools familiar We are Penn State
chant stretches from the Poconos to the
Alleghenys.
Many alumni credit Paterno not just
with winning national college football ti-
tles, but for helping to transform a rural
agricultural college into a 21st century
scientific and engineering powerhouse.
He, along with his wife Sue, helped
transform a sleepy land grant institution
in the center of a blue collar state into an
academic giant. Penn State became an
elite institution without becoming elitist
in large part due to the leadership of this
Ivy League-educated man from Brook-
lyn, said Anthony Lubrano of Glen-
moore, who graduated in 1982 and is
seeking a seat on the schools Board of
Trustees. His contributions to human-
ity far outweigh his notoriety on the gri-
diron.

LEHMAN TWP. If he had a
choice, Josh Sayre would prefer not
to wrestle his bout at the beginning
or the end a dual, due to pressure sit-
uations.
Turns out the Lake-Lehman fresh-
man put on one of his best perform-
ances under the stressful situation of
grappling in the 14th bout Wednes-
day night against rival Dallas.
Sayre pinned Dallas Eric Young in
the finale of an intense dual in front
of a near-capacity crowd at Lake-Leh-
man to put the score in his teams fa-
vor, a 32-31 victory in a Wyoming Val-
ley Conference Divi-
sion II meet.
When I know its
something big I tend
to wrestle really
nervousIts hard to
forget about nerves
but as soon as you put
your foot on the line they go away
you cant hear anybody, said Sayre,
who recorded the fall in 3:29 after
turning over Young with a half nel-
son during the 132-pound match then
jumped into the arms of his team-
mates in excitement of the victory.

Four falls lead Comets to win
The Times Leader staff
WILKES-BARRE -- If they
all end like this, Kings could
get used to these tension-filled
finishes. Four days after get-
ting a buzzer-beater to win at
Manhattanville, the Lady Mon-
archs gutted out a tough win
at home against Misericordia.
Kings held the Cougars to
just 15 second-half points and
held onto first place in the
Freedom Conference with a
51-44 win Wednesday night at
Scandlon Gymnasium.
The Lady Monarchs (15-3,
7-0) won their eighth straight
game and finished a sweep of
the rest of the league in their
first time through the sched-
ule.
Kings forced 24 Miser-
icordia turnovers and held the
Cougars scoreless in the final
2:45 after they had cut the
lead to 45-44.
I think we wore them
down, and I thought we had
a lot of energy, Kings coach
Brian Donoghue said. We
were waiting for a spurt, got
our spurt and converted on
it.
It was the Misericordia
womens debut for interim
coach Dave Martin, taking
over for Tom Griffith, who
resigned Tuesday.
Were so lucky to have
great kids. Its their team,
said Martin, the schools ath-
letic director and former long-
time mens coach. It hurts to
lose -- nobody likes to lose.
But hopefully we learn from
this and well grow a little
bit. And I know we will.
Kings held Misericordias
Christine Marks, the leagues
leading scorer to 11 points --
10 below her season average.
The senior still finished with
a double-double, pulling down
a game-high 10 rebounds.
Paige Carlin, Marissa Man-
ning and Samantha Simcox all
finished with 10 points for the
Lady Monarchs.
Jesse Robinson scored 12 to
lead the Cougars (9-8, 5-2)
while Tyann McDaniel added
10.
Despite the coaching
change, the Cougars were not
out of sorts in the early go-
ing, shooting 46 percent from
the field and taking a 29-27
lead into halftime. Things
changed in the second half.
Both offenses struggled out
of the locker room. Kings
was scoreless in the first three
minutes and change before a
Brittany Muscatell three-point-
er. But the Cougars couldnt
take full advantage and led
just 34-30 before the Lady
Monarchs were able to put
together a 13-0 run to take
the lead for good, blanking
Misericordia for nearly eight
minutes.
Honestly, I think we got a
little tired, Martin said. I
think we got a little bit out of
sync offensively. We actually
put something new in today, a
new wrinkle, and I think we
ended up going to that maybe
too much. Because when it
got tight, I dont think we
were as comfortable.
Itll pay off I think down
the road. But I dont think we
were as comfortable offensive-
ly.

Balanced offense
lifts Kings to win
By DEREK LEVARSE
dlevarse@timesleader.com
I think we wore them
down, and I thought we
had a lot of energy. We
were waiting for a spurt,
got our spurt and con-
verted on it.
Brian Donoghue
Kings coach
Sayre only needed to get
five teams points in the match
and the Black Knights would
have won on tiebreaking crite-
ria of having most wins. But a
bout victory by 15 points
seemed a little far away with
him just holding a 5-2 lead
when the referee slapped the
mat.
But its about the team not
me, Sayre added.
With the win, the Black
Knights (4-0, D-II) can secure
the division title and the con-
ferences No. 1 seed in the Dis-
trict 2 Class 2A Duals Tourna-
ment with victories over Ha-
nover Area on Saturday and
Wyoming Area on Feb. 1.
The Mountaineers (4-1 D-II)
are now tied with Wyoming
Area as the only teams with
one loss in the division -- the
two will meet Saturday at Dal-
las.
We have some business to
take care of there, Lehman
coach Tom Williams said
about his next two opponents.
Were just happy for the kids
and happy for where the pro-
gram is right now.
Sayres victory was the most
important on the night, but
there were several action-
packed bouts with four be-
ing decided by one point
during a dual, which consist-
ed of seven lead changes and
three ties.
Lehmans Austin Harry
(138) and Jake Winters (145)
staked the team to a 7-0 advan-
tage two bouts into the dual.
The Mountaineers answered
with a major decision at 152
by Connor Martinez and a fall
from Kris Roccograndi at 160
to open a 10-7 lead.
A match pitting a pair of dis-
trict champions was next at
170 with the Knights Nick
Shelley holding on for a 4-3
win over Bill Dixon to even
the score at 10-10.
After Derek Dragon won by
decision at 182, another thrill-
ing match came up at 195
when Dallas Garrett Artsma
defeated Brady Butler 2-1 in a
match that had to go to the fi-
nal overtime, a rideout period
as Artsma earned the victory
with an escape to even the
score at 13.
Lehman had to forfeit at 220
and Dallas went up 19-13. The
teams alternated pins at the
next two weights and with
four matches left, the Moun-
taineers held a 25-19 advan-
tage.
But Lehman won three of
the final four bouts to stay un-
beaten in the division.
This was a good team ef-
fort, Williams noted.
A big win for Dallas came
from Jordan Visneski, who
pinned Steve Bardo in 16 sec-
onds at 126 to give the Moun-
taineers a 31-26 advantage
with one match left. The win
was just Visneskis second of
the season.
I dont mind losing a good
match as long as its a good
match. It was a good match,
both teams wrestled well,
Dallas coach Mike Richards
said. (Visneski) came out
and did what he had to do. It
wouldve been a nice Cinderel-
la finish if we won the match,
but thats wrestling.

PRESSURE
Continued fromPage 1B
It was big because we talked
about getting the next step in our
growth, and that was winning a
conference road game, Wood-
ruff said. Weve proven we can
win, we can win conference
games, nowlets winaconference
game on the road. And for us to
do that, I think that will be a big
boost to our confidence going in-
to the second half (of the league
schedule).
Initially, it lookedlikeit was go-
ing to take overtime for the Cou-
gars to pull it off.
Kings senior Kyle Stackhouse
calmly sank two free throws with
8.3seconds left followinga Dono-
van Womack steal to tie it up at
60-60.
Misericordia called timeout af-
ter getting across half-court with
just 4.4 ticks left.
Understandably, the call was to
get the ball in the hands of Eich-
horst, the senior forward from
Hazleton Area who leads the
team in scoring.
Eichhorst (game-high 17
points) beat his man one-on-one
up high and drove in for the un-
contested score. A desperation
heave from Kings at the end
drew glass, at the Cougars
earned an important win.
At that time of the game, its
more about who has the ball
than anything else, Woodruff
said.
Andwe got it tothe right guy.
Hes been so good for us and
were going to keep going to him
until he walks across that stage
and gets his diploma.
The defense was great. We
did what we wanted to do,
Kings coach J.P. Andrejko said
of the decisive play. Eichhorst
made a great one-on-one move.
Unfortunately we were slowget-
ting to him. Real good player,
and good players make plays.
Wecalledadefensewherewe
were going to switch out on him,
try to force him away from the
basket. We did that. And again,
we were just a second slow get-
ting over to him.
Misericordia had just two field
goals in the first 10 minutes and
trailed 17-6. The Cougars out-
scored Kings 23-11 in the final 10
minutes and actually led 29-28 at
the break.
I thought we were a little too
excited at the beginning of the
game, Woodruff said. We were
loose at both ends of the floor.
Poor execution offensively and
defensively allowed them to get
clean looks. And like normal,
they made them.
Stackhouse (16 points), Key-
ton Winder (11), Kyle Ham-
monds (10) and Tim OShea (10)
all hit double figures for the Mon-
archs (8-10, 3-4).
Matt Greene finished with 13
points for the Cougars while
Steve Artzerounian added 12.

did not support the termina-
tionof CoachJackson. Some
Board members understood
that, but, apparently, not all
of them. The Board mem-
bers made their original de-
cision based upon incom-
plete information, but now
they no longer have that ex-
cuse. Ignoring the evidence
presented at the hearing is a
terrible lesson in civics that
these Board members
should not have taught the
students they were elected
to serve. We have a number
of options andweareconsid-
ering all of them. We appre-
ciatethefact thesomeBoard
members listened, kept an
open mind and took this
process seriously.
Borland said those op-
tions could involve the
courts.
I think the statement
speaks for itself, Borland
said. Theres the right go to
the Court of Common Pleas
over this. We have both fed-
eral and state options.
About a dozen people
turned out for the early
morning meeting, well un-
der the few hundred that
were at Mondays hearing
and the December school
board meeting.
Nick Zapoticky, the presi-
dent of the Gridiron Club,
and his son Ryan, the start-
ing quarterback, were both
hoping that Jackson would
be brought back.
Very disappointed, Nick
Zapotickysaid. Thisisnt an
action against Ted Jackson
Sr., its an action against Dal-
las football. In my opinion,
they are giving Dallas foot-
ball the death penalty be-
cause they are removing
coaches from seventh grade
up, and to rebuild that with
one prospective coach com-
ing from out of the area or a
coach who last coached four
years ago doesnt bode well
for Dallas football.
Ryan Zapoticky was the
only player to attend the
meeting.
However, Jackson re-
ceived noticeable support
from his players at the De-
cember board meeting and
at Mondays hearing.
Its going to be a large
blow, Zapoticky, a junior,
saidof thepossibilityof Jack-
son being replaced. A lot of
people are talking about not
playing. Its going to be
bad.
William Gately Jr. arrived
shortly after the meeting
ended. His son, Bill, is a
sophomore on the football
teamandalsoplays baseball.
He saidhe hadto get his son
a gym membership because
the weight room has been
closedsincethepositionwas

My son is extremely hap-
py with the coaching situa-
tion, Gately said. He loves
Ted Jackson Sr., he loves Ju-
nior (Teds son, assistant
coach Ted Jackson Jr.) He
has never said one thing bad
about any of the coaching
staff.
Goeringer opened the 25-
minute meeting asking why
there was no agenda availa-
ble. When Wega said that
there was only one item on
the agenda, Goeringer con-
tinued to insist copies be
made. He also asked for co-
pies of the two resolutions.
Goeringer wanted the
board to vote on the resolu-
tions together, but school
board solicitor Ben Jones
said that only one motion
could be voted on at a time.
Kylethenreadastatement
saying in part the vote isnt
about being super-sensitive
or misunderstanding each
other. It is about authority, it
is about respect, it is about
holding ourselves account-
able to a higher standard.
At Mondays hearing, Dal-
las high school principal Jef-
frey Shaffer testified that
Jackson publicly embar-
rassed athletic director Nan-
cyRobertswhenpregamein-
troductions were neglected
during a home District 2
Class 3A playoff game
against ScrantonPrep. Shaff-
ergaveJacksonanegativere-
viewat theendof theseason.
After the vote to rescind
opening the position and to
retain Jackson failed, Kyle
read the resolution to affirm
and ratify the decision to
open the position and ap-
point aheadcoachassoonas
possible.
Coslett voted against re-
taining Jackson during an
April 2009 meeting. Jackson
was kept by a 5-4 vote back
then. He also voted to open
the position in December,
but changed his vote after
Mondays hearing.
I sat there with an open
mindMonday, Coslett said.
I sat there as part of the
quote-unquote jury. I believe
his case was well stated.

classroom as he did on the field.
I just remember howimportant
it was that we got educated. I know
it sounds clichd, but I saw the
man do it every day. That man
made sure I got an education,
Jackson said.
In a larger sense, Paterno contin-
ued a tradition that began when
the schools founders challenged
the assumptions of the mid-19th
century.
The goal was to apply scientific
principles to farming, a radical de-
parture from the traditional curri-
culum grounded in mathematics,
rhetoric, and classical languages,
Penn States official history notes.
And though the last few months
of Paternos life were tarnished by
the child sex abuse scandal involv-
ing former assistant coach Jerry
Sandusky, some said that the time
has come to judge him on the full
circle of his career. Sandusky is ac-
cused of molesting 10 boys over a
15-year span, sometimes in the
football building.
Thousands of people paid trib-
ute to Paterno during a candlelight
vigil outside Penn States adminis-
tration building Sunday night. For-
mer players were among those
who spoke, including Oakland
Raiders offensive lineman Stefen
Wisniewski.
When I think back on Joe Pater-
nos legacy, the events of the last
two months wont even cross my
mind, Wisniewski said.
Today, Penn State has more than
557,000 living alumni and its be-
come one of the largest employers
in the state. But Paterno and the
school managedtoholdontosome
admirable small town qualities.
At the end of the day he was just
another dad, too, said Bob Bran-
stetter, who grew up in State Col-
lege and was on the high school
hockey team with Paternos son,
Scott. There was never an air
around Joe Paterno. He was iconic,
but he was just a normal guy.
Chris Wesling, 22, a college se-
nior from Pittsburgh studying psy-
chology, said the school has a
strong sense of togetherness, de-
spite its far flung physical nature.
The branch campuses help,
Wesling said, and sports is a uni-
versal language.

INDIANAPOLIS The Indi-

Ravens defensive coordinator
Chuck Pagano as their new head
coach on Wednesday.
The team said Pagano will be
introduced at a news conference
on Thursday. It will be the first
head coaching job for the 51-year-
oldPagano, whohasbeenacareer
assistant until now with stops in
Oakland and Cleveland in the
NFL and stints at schools includ-
ing Miami and North Carolina.
He replaces JimCaldwell, who
was fired after the Colts 2-14 sea-
son in which quarterback Peyton
Manning never played a down as
he recovered fromneck surgery.
The move is just the latest in a
dizzying series of changes by
owner JimIrsay.
The Colts fired Caldwell last
week after three seasons. The
teamwent tothe Super Bowl dur-
ing Caldwells first year, but this
year locked up the No. 1 overall
draft pick with a horrid perform-
ance that also cost team vice
chairman Bill Polian and his son,
general manager Chris, their
jobs.

WILKES-BARRE TWP. The
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Pen-
guins had just completed a two-
goal comebackinthethirdperiod
to tie the Providence Bruins and
force overtime on Wednesday.
Then the unexpected hap-
pened.
Just 27 seconds into the extra
period, defenseman Robert Bor-
tuzzo had the puck stripped from
his stick in front of his net by
Bruins forward Craig Cunning-
ham.
Cunningham promptly skated
aroundBortuzzoandlifteda shot
over Brad Thiessen to hand the
Penguins a quick 4-3 overtime
loss that ended their six-game
win streak.
The Penguins did gain a point
on the night to move into sole
possession of first place in the
East Division one point ahead
of idle Hershey.
Wednesdays game ended on a
rough note, and it didnt start too
smooth, either.
For the 13th time in 21 home
games, the Penguins allowed
their opponent to score the open-
ing goal in the first period. This
time it took Providence just 42
seconds to find the back of the
net on a shot by Jordan Caron to
put the Penguins down 1-0 early
in the game.
We didnt have a whole lot of
energy in the first period, said
Joey Mormina, who had a goal
later in the game. Giving up an
early goal again kind of set us
back.
It was also the third time in the
last 10 home games that the Pen-
guins have allowed a goal in the
first minute.
We have to look into that.
What the answer is I dont
know yet, coach John Hynes
said.
The Bruins went up 2-0 near
the end of the period when the
Penguins got caught on a line
change, giving defenseman Da-
vid Warsofsky plenty of time to
line up a shot from the high slot.
ColinMcDonaldcut theleadto
2-1a minute later after Matt Rust
dug the puck out along the
boards. Rust dished the puck to
McDonald, who skated away
fromtwo defenders into open ice
inthe slot andplaceda wrister in-
side the near post.
After Providence went up3-1at
4:13 of the second period and
forced Hynes to replace Scott
Munroe with Thiessen, both
teams had extensive opportuni-
ties with the two-man advantage.
Providence went first with a
47-second five-on-three power
play, but the red hot Penguins
penalty kill that was a perfect 12-
for-12 in its last three games kept
the Bruins off the board.
Three minutes later, the Pen-
guins received1:44 of power play
time with the two-man advan-
tage. They put pressure on
Bruins goaltender AntonKhudo-
bin, who stopped all five shots he
saw, including a flashof the glove
to snare a Geoff Walker shot as
the power play expired.
Even though they failed to
score on the power play, the Pen-
guins did come away with a mo-
mentum boost.
We spent the whole time in
the offensive zone and we had a
shooting mentality, Hynes said.
Even though we didnt score, it
wasnt a negative because we
were doing the right things.
The Penguins were far from
finished.
After the penalty kill kept the
Bruins off the board for a second
five-on-three to start the third pe-
riod, Mormina gave the Penguins
life when he gained the puck
along the boards, skated into the
faceoff circle and placed a wrist
shot past Khudobintomake it 3-2
in the first five minutes.
McDonald earned an assist on
the play, giving him seven points
in the last four games (four goals,
three assists).
Less than three minutes later,
Geoff Walker evened things up
when he skated out fromthe cor-
ner and ripped a shot that
bounced off the post and into the
back of the net to make it 3-3 and
force overtime.

COLUMBUS, Ohio Jared
Sullinger had 20 points and 13
rebounds, and No. 4 Ohio State
took advantage of Penn States
slow start to roll to a 78-54
victory on Wednesday night.
The Buckeyes (18-3, 6-2 Big
Ten) won their third in a row
and fifth in six games while
tuning up for Sundays big
home showdown with No. 20
Michigan. The Wolverines,
Ohio State and Michigan State
came into the week tied for the
top spot in the Big Ten.
The Nittany Lions paid trib-
ute to Joe Paterno by wearing
black bands on their jerseys.
Paterno, Penn States football
coach for 46 years and the
winner of a major-college re-
cord 409 games, died Sunday at
age 85. A public viewing and
funeral was held earlier on
Wednesday.

Seminoles (14-6, 5-1) win their
fifth straight Atlantic Coast
Conference game, their longest

The ACC co-leaders shot
nearly 51 percent, led the entire
second half and broke the game
open with an 18-2 run.
C.J. Harris scored 16 points
to lead Wake Forest (11-9, 2-4),
which lost center Ty Walker to
a concussion late in the first
half and couldnt overcome 18
turnovers or a rough game from
No. 2 scorer Travis McKie. He
finished a season-worst 1 of 13
and scored three points well
below his average of 17.

STILLWATER, Okla.
Freshman swingman LeBryan
Nash scored a career-high 27
points, Brian Williams added a
career-best 22 and Oklahoma
State knocked off No. 2 Mis-
souri.
Nash, a McDonalds All-
American, scored 13 points
during a 17-4 burst that sent
the Cowboys into the lead in
the final 4 minutes and the
Tigers (18-2, 5-2 Big 12) didnt
have a response.
Nash hit a jumper and a
3-pointer to get it going, then
nailed another 3 from the left
side to give the Cowboys (10-
10, 3-4) a 65-64 lead with 3:23
to play. He connected on anoth-
er 29 seconds later and ran to
the opposite end of the court
when Missouri called timeout
to encourage a student section
that was already hopping up
and down to bring it on.
Notre Dame 55,
Seton Hall 42
NEWARK, N.J. Jack Coo-
ley had 13 points and 11 re-
bounds and Notre Dame turned

STARKVILLE, Miss. Ar-
nett Moultrie scored 28 points
and grabbed 12 rebounds for
his 12th double-double of the
season and No. 18 Mississippi
State held off a late LSU charge
to win.
Moultrie had 19 points in the
second half as the Bulldogs
built on a 32-31 halftime lead.
The 6-foot-11 junior made 10 of
18 shots from the field and
grabbed six offensive rebounds.
Jalen Steele scored 15 points
and Rodney Hood added 13.
Mississippi State (17-4, 4-2

and No. 15 Creighton held off
Drake for its sixth straight road
win.
Jahenns Manigat added 15

longest road winning streak in
37 years.
Creighton let a 15-point lead

Markets gain on Fed news
Stocks closed at their highest level in
more than eight months after the Fed-
eral Reserve pledged to keep interest
rates near zero for three more years.
Stocks had been negative all morn-
ing, but turned positive on the news.
Bond yields fell, indicating stronger
demand.
More than three stocks rose for every
one that fell on the New York Stock
Exchange. Volume was heavier than
average at 4.4 billion shares.
Netflix regains footing
Netflix regained U.S. customers in
the fourth quarter as the video sub-
scription began to recover from a revolt
against a big price increase.
Figures released Wednesday show
Netflix Inc. ended December with 24.4
million subscribers in the U.S., 600,000
more than at the end of September.
Netflix lost 800,000 subscribers last
summer after raising its U.S. prices by
as much as 60 percent.
The company made $41 million, or
73 cents per share, in the final three
months of last year.
Revenue climbed 47 percent from
the previous year to $876 million.
Wal-Mart reducing greeters
Wal-Mart Stores, the worlds largest
retailer, has removed greeters from the
overnight shift at its U.S. supercenters,
chipping away at a 30-year tradition of
making sure all shoppers are welcomed
to the store.
The move will save money and en-
sure Wal-Mart has the right staffing
levels during peak and non-peak hours,
David Tovar, a spokesman, said. For
the past six months, Wal-Mart has been
reassigning greeters at the companys
approximately 3,000 U.S. supercenters
from the third shift, which runs from10
p.m. to 7 a.m., to other jobs, he said.
Home contracts slip
The number of Americans who
signed contracts to buy homes fell in
December after hitting the highest
level in a year and a half a month earli-
er.
The National Association of Realtors
says its index of sales agreements fell
3.5 percent last month to a reading of
96.6. Thats down from Novembers
reading of 100.1.
But the reading is still the second
highest since April 2010, the last
month that buyers could qualify for a
federal home-buying tax credit.

ONLINEFILEshar-
ing has always been a
bit on the shady side.
Its really easy to stray
into extralegal territo-
ry, and you might not
even knowthat what
youre doing is out of
bounds.
The problemis compounded by the
many websites, so-called file lockers,
that allowusers to anonymously post
and download files. These include ser-
vices such as RapidShare, FileSonic,
and, until recently, MegaUpload.
The founder of MegaUpload, Kim
Schmitz (who has legally changed his
name to Dotcom) was recently arrest-
ed at his NewZealand home, the result
of an FBI investigation that seems to
indicate MegaUpload was an online
piracy ring.
There are numerous perfectly legal
uses for file sharing and file-locker ser-
vices. You cannot easily email a1giga-
byte video file or photo archive, for
example, but you can make it available
for download on a site like Rapid Share.
But that file might be a pirated movie,
software programor video game.
Its worth noting that these sites are
incredibly popular and it would seem
theyre also quite lucrative. When arrest-
ed, Dotcom was residing at a palatial
mansion, complete with a panic room
in which he attempted to hold off the
authorities. He also owned about 20
vehicles. The MegaUpload site, which
was in the top 20 most popular websites
in the world and had featured the likes
of KimKardashian, Puff Daddy and
Jamie Foxx in advertisements, was shut
down as well.
In response to the arrest, a slewof file
sharing sites have either shut down or
heavily restricted their services, while
others, including the giants RapidShare
and MediaFire, remained online, point-
ing out that their organizations oper-
ated in the clear and had never sought
to deflect legal attention or hide their
activities.
The circumstances and timing are
interesting the arrest occurred within
24 hours of widespread protests against
the controversial SOPAand PIPAacts,
designed to interdict online piracy. In
addition, Dotcom is a citizen of Hol-
land who resides in NewZealand the
United States is reportedly claiming
jurisdiction because some of MegaUp-
loads servers were located in the United
States.
Regardless of the truth of the allega-
tions or the legality of the action, it will
be interesting to see howthe case plays
out and not just for the sake of curi-
osity or entertainment the precedent
set by the case could have a lasting
impact on both the Internet and copy-
right laws.

T E C H T A L K
Crackdown: Near the end of online file sharing as we know it
WASHINGTON The Federal
Reserves announcement that it is
unlikely to raise its benchmark in-
terest rate until late 2014 is simply
its best guess, Ben Bernanke
said Wednesday.
The Fed chair-
man made clear
during a news con-
ference Wednes-
day that the deci-
sion to leave inter-
est rates un-
changed for three
more years was not ironclad.
The central banks ability to
forecast that far out is limited,
Bernanke says, and the Fed could
adjust the timetable for when it
will raise rates if economic condi-
tions change.
Still, he said the U.S. economy
remains weak and all signs sug-
gest the Fed wont change its re-
cord-low rate for another three
years.
The central bank has kept its
key rate at a record low near zero
for three years.
Bernanke also said the Fed has
not ruled out bolder steps to boost
economic growth, such as a third
round of bond purchases.
If inflation is going to remain
below target for an extended peri-
od and unemployment progress is
very slow ... there is a case for ad-
ditional policy action, he said.
I would not say we are out of
ammunition. We still have tools.
Prior to the news conference,
the Fed slightly reduced its out-
look for U.S. economic growth this
year, to between 2.2 percent and
2.7 percent.

EWYORKJ.C. Penney is
permanentlymarkingdown
all of its merchandise by at
least 40percent soshoppers
will no longer have to wait for a sale
to get the lowest prices in its stores.
Penney said Wednesday that it is
gettingridof thehundreds of sales it
offers each year in favor of a simpler
approach to pricing. On Feb. 1, the
retailer is rolling out a three-tiered
strategy that offers Every Day low
pricing, Month-Long Value dis-
counts on select merchandise each
month and clearance deals called
Best Prices duringthefirst andthe
third Friday of every month when
many shoppers get paid.
The plan, the first major move by
former Apple exec-
utive Ron Johnson
since he became
Penneys CEO in
November, is simi-
lar to Wal-Marts
iconic everyday
low pricing
strategy. The difference is that Pen-
neys goal isnt to undercut compet-
itors, but rather to offer customers
more predictable pricing.
Pricingisactuallyaprettysimple
andstraightforwardthing, Johnson
told the Associated Press. Custom-
ers will not pay literally a penny
morethanthetruevalueof theprod-
uct.
Penneys plan comes as stores are
struggling to wean Americans off of
the profit-busting bargains that they
have come to expect in the weak
economy. Themoveisrisky, though,
because shoppers who love to bar-
gain-hunt may be turned off by the
absence of sales.
Penney has beenanespecially big
promoter. The company offered590
saleseventslast yearanddrewabout
72 percent of its revenue from mer-
chandise that was discounted by 50
percent or more.

There may be
some freezing
drizzle this
morning in some
areas, but the
main event
starts later this
afternoon. As
warmer air
surges north-
ward, we can
expect rain to
arrive by the
evening rush
hour. With tem-
peratures rising
into the 40s,
tonight, rain will
continue well
past midnight.
The rain will be
ending Friday
morning with
amounts ranging
from 4 to 8
tenths of an inch
or what could
have been over a
half foot of
snow. Clearing
skies Friday
afternoon bring
dry weather for
Saturday with
only urries by
Sunday. The
atmosphere
most of next
week looks
rather tame as
well.

RALEIGH, N.C. Helping students
with their homework, it turns out, can be
big business.
Thats how Advanced Instructional
Systems has quietly become one of N.C.
State Universitys largest and fastest-
growing spinoffs.
Now the company is making plans to
build on its basic online service, using in-
formation it learns about each student
from answers they get wrong to create a
form of instant, customized tutor-
ing thats available
around the clock.
The company,
whichoffers anon-
line assignment
and testing ser-
vice for university
and high school
students called
WebAssign,
was started by a
small group of aca-
demics on campus in the
late 1990s. The universi-
ty holds rights to part of the underlying
computer coding and company trade-
mark and licenses those to the company,
which is owned by a handful of its em-
ployees.
AISmovedfromthemaincampus onto
the public-private Centennial Campus in
2003 with just a dozen employees, said
JohnS. Risley, aphysicsprofessor andthe
companys chief executive. It has grown
to nearly 150 employees nowmany of
themwithscience, mathandengineering
degrees andinthe year that just ended
passed two milestones: its 5 millionth
student user and one billionth answer
processed for homework assignments,
tests and practice problems.
In any given semester now, more than
half a million students are using WebAs-
sign.
It has grown so much that in Decem-
ber, Risley and the companys other own-
ers felt it was time to appoint a board of
directors, he said.
When you are a startup and you grow
quickly, it becomes clear you need the
help and experience, Risley said.
If thecompanyever goes public, NCSU
would get a share of the money raised,
but that may not happen, at least not any
time soon.
Inthetechworld, manyprivatecompa-
nies seem to be aimed at going public
fromthe minute theyre founded, but Ris-
leysaidthere arent anyplans for that. He
said the owners are interested in educa-
tion and like the direction the companys
going.
For now, institutions sign up for We-
bAssign, and course instructors control
the assignments. The company plans to
begin marketing directly to students and
to offer them an enhanced service that
verges on using artificial intelligence to
craft an online tutor. The company can
have access to hundreds or even thou-
sands of answers for a given student, Ris-
ley said, and can sift and monitor that da-
ta to tailor their learning.
Analyzing several questions students
get wrong ina physics class, for example,
can show whether theyre getting an an-
swer wrong because they dont under-
standthe concept or they have a deficien-
cy in a specific math skill. If they hap-
penedtohaveusedWebAssignfor, say, an
algebra class a semester earlier, that
would further expand the information
that the system has for analyzing what
they know and what they need to work
on. The companys current service gets
solid reviews from the instructors who
use it in their classes.
They got in fairly early, I think, and as
a consequence developed what is proba-

At PennState, the companys service is

EWYORKAs a 20-
something, Erin
Turner believes she
made all the right moves dating
wise. She graduated from col-
lege and spent three and a half
years with a boyfriend before
they moved in together.
Their cohabitation bliss last-
ed only eight months.
We broke up because when you live
with someone, everything comes to the
surface, said Turner, who remains sin-
gle in Chicago as her 30th birthday ap-
proaches in March.
You start to see how people handle
confrontation, financial realities, chal-
lenges, the housework load. If we had
been married we would have been di-
vorced, or fully on our way.
While Turner hopes to marry one day,
shes not sweating it at the moment. Her
parents divorced when she was young,
and she doesnt want marriage badly
enough to settle. Shed be sad if she nev-
er married, but she wouldnt implode.
Heading into 2012, trend watchers
note that barely half of all adults in the
United States are married, and the
medianage at the time of a first marriage
has never been higher slightly more
than 26 years old for women and nearly
29 for men.
In 1960, 72 percent of married adults
18 and older were married. The percent-
age fell to 57 percent in 2000, and today
its just 51 percent, according to a new
Pew Research Center analysis of census

Twentysomething Erin Turner has no regrets about her dating life and does
hope to marry one day, but shes not sweating single life at the moment.
At 48 years old, Maria Lott of Ber-
wick has accepted the fact that her
single status is a point of contention
among friends and, mostly, family, but
shes hit the point where she has stop-
ped caring.
I date, sure, but I just havent found
the right guy, and I try not to stress
over it as much any more. Will I ever
get married? I would certainly like to,
but Im prepared to not have that op-
tion.
Singlehood is becoming increasingly
common among older adults. Though
many local singles say they are not
completely restricting themselves to a
life without matrimony, the time it
takes to get to possible wedded bliss
has become a less bitter pill.
Youve got to realize that life defi-
nitely is about relationships, but
not just romantic ones, said
Marie Lynn Brennan,
48, of Ashley. Thats what Ive come to
appreciate over the years. I surround
myself with a lot of great friends.
With age comes wisdom, Lott said,
and a better handle on whats desired in
a partnership.
As we get older our tastes are more
refined, and I think that makes it har-
der. At the end of every relationship Ive
pointed to something and said either
OK, thats what I do want or Thats
what I dont want. It makes it hard
because within the first couple minutes
of meeting someone you might pick up
on something that you just know you
cant deal with in a relationship, and the
whole thing is immediately off.
There are definite perks to single life,
mainly independence.
There is a certain freedom to it that
can be appreciated, said Faye Koch, 32,
of Wilkes-Barre. Im not accountable
for anyone else and can do what I
want.
Koch often takes advantage of this
notion and travels, something she has
been fond of since she was younger.
Ive always had a need to get out and
see the world, and now I have the op-
portunity to. I might be able to find a
guy whos willing to go along with it,
but who says thats what I need? I do

The share of marrieds could
dip below half in a few years as
single-person households, sin-
gle parents andcouples livingto-
gether outside the bounds of le-
gal marriage multiply. The num-
ber of newmarriages inthe Unit-
ed States fell 5 percent just from
2009 to 2010, a wrinkle that may
or may not relate to the bad
economy, Pew researcher DVe-
ra Cohn said.
The decline is spread among
age groups but is most dramatic
among Turners generation.
Nearly three out of every five
adults ages 18 to 29 were mar-
ried in1960, but nowonly one in
five is.
Marriage alsois onthe decline
in other developed countries, es-
pecially those inEurope, andthe
trendis startingtotake root else-
where around the globe.
In Mexico City, for instance, a
recent proposal would allow
couples to test drive marriage
with a two-year contract, said
Ann Mack, a trend watcher for
JWT Intelligence, an arm of the
marketing giant. If the trial mar-
riage didnt workout, the parties
could walk away without leng-
thy divorce proceedings.
Women, in particular, are ex-
periencingamass marriagereth-
ink, Mack said. Agrowing num-
ber of womenare takinganalter-
nate life route that doesnt in-
clude marriage as an essential
checkpoint, she said.
Retreat, maybe. But not out-
right abandonment, said Cohn
and Stephanie Coontz, who
wrote Marriage: AHistory and
teaches family studies at Ever-
green State University in Olym-
pia, Wash.
We as a society have to recog-
nize that people do still get mar-
riedbut cycle intomarriage later
and may cycle out of marriage,
she said. I thinkmarriage is per-
ceived as a very desirable good
but no longer a necessity.
In New York, 30-year-old
Grace Belloloves kids. Her mom
was 30 when she gave birth to
her, but Bello didnt have the
American dream of a picket
fence, husband and 2.5 children
inher headgrowingupinCuper-
tino, Calif. She recently broke up
with a guy she had been dating
casually for a few weeks and is
busily pursuing a freelance-writ-
ing career.
Not gettingmarriedwouldnt
be the worst thing in the world,
Bello said. I think the worst-
case scenario would be a love-
less marriage that ends in di-
vorce and to be a single mom
supporting several kids. Id rath-
er be single for the rest of my
life.
Theres a lot to like about liv-
ing single, said Bella DePaulo,
who wrote the book Singled
Out.
Were so used to, as a society,
thinking about life in terms of
what it means to be coupled and
married that we miss out on all
the ways in which living single
has some real attractions, like
havingyour ownspace, saidDe-
Paulo, who at 58 is happily sin-
gle herself.
Among the more dramatic de-
velopments is a 17-point mar-
riage disparity along education
lines.
Nearly two-thirds of all adults
with college degrees, or 64 per-
cent, are married, compared
with47percent withhighschool
degrees or less, according to the
Pew snapshot released Dec. 14.
Fifty years ago, college gradu-
ates and those who had not gone
beyond high school were about
equally likely to be married.
For less educated and lower-
earning women in particular,
Coontz said marriage is riskier
than it used to be.
Mens real wages have fallen,
andtheyfacealot of jobinsecuri-
ty, so a woman who would have
found a high-school graduate a
pretty damn good catch in 1960
nowhas to say to herself, Would
it really be smart of me to marry
this guy? Shes choosing to fo-
cus on her own earning power.
A separate Pew survey re-
leased last year found that while
nearly 40percent of respondents
said marriage is becoming obso-
lete, 61 percent of those who
were not married would like to
be someday.
I need to support a future
family, saidVince Tornero, a 23-
year-old senior at Ohio State
University in Columbus. I want
tohave kids, but I cant have kids
if I dont have money.
Pew also found that marriage
statistics vary by race, with 55
percent of whites, 48 percent of
Hispanics but just 31 percent of
blacks married.
I thought Id be married by
now, honestly, saidKeisha Pick-
ett, who is 31, black and single in
Tampa, Fla. In my circle of
friends, they havent necessarily
given up on it, but theyre
scared. Yougive it your all, andit
could all blow up in your face
one day.
Pickett is dating but has no
special someone. I had a honey-
bunch up until about four
months ago. We had been back
and forth for, like, three years,
she said. It just came to a point
where I felt like it was forced. Im
very outgoing and ambitious,
andhewas kindof a complacent,
in-the-house guy.
The type is familiar to Mack,
who notes a rise in the omega
male, that perpetual adolescent
of Judd Apatow movie fame.
Hes fond of beer, video games
and women in charge.
Pickett, who runs her own
public relations company, isnt
interested.
You want a honey who wants
to go here or there andisnt com-
plaining about it all the time,
she said. It was like pulling
teeth. I couldnt waste any more
time.

A growing number of
women are taking an
alternate life route
that doesnt include
marriage as an
essential checkpoint.

it for myself.
Koch has traveled all over the
United States and most recently
visited France. She hopes to get
back out of the country and in
the vicinity of Italy within the
year.
Some might view such trips
as lonely. Not Koch.
I might bring someone, I
might not. Either way I share
the trip with people I care about
anyway. If I come home from
somewhere I went by myself Ive
got plenty of pictures and sto-
ries to tell my family and
friends.
While many make the most of
where theyre at in life while
still holding out hope that they
find the one, others men
included have made a solid
decision that living a life with
no married partner is just fine.
Fifty-three year old Tom Ble-
vins of Lake Ariel has other
things on his mind. With two
sisters who have husbands and
three children between them,
hes never wanting for company.
My family keeps me busy;
my job keeps me busy, Blevins
said. I date, but its not really
my focus. At this point I dont
think marriage is in the cards
for me. Im pretty content.

nine, all without additional cost.
And that lab gets used a lot, he
said.
Students benefit, too, he said,
because they get instant feed-
back on their answers and, the
way instructors there configure
WebAssign, can try five more
times for a diminishing amount
of credit. That instant feedback
makes it easier for students to
knowwhether they have grasped
a concept or not, he said.
Thats really important, be-
cause they knowwhether theyve
made a mistake immediately, in-
stead of having to turn in the as-
signment and wait a few days or
more toget it back, he said. You
can imagine how important that
might be if they have an examon
the material the next day.

Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Ange-

For more Sudoku go to www.timesleader.com
O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: My
12-year-old daughter,
Mandy, was invited
to a friends birthday
party along with 12
other girls. They
were told to meet at
the mall where theyd
go shopping together, then go for a
sleepover afterward.
The birthday girl told her friends to
bring money as gifts. Well, she raked
in more than $300 then proceeded
to spend it all on herself while her
friends stood and watched. Mandy
returned home the next day and told
me that although the girl spent the
money on herself, her mom did buy
them each a beverage.
Abby, I gave my daughter $20 to
go to the party, thinking the money
would be for all of their fun not
the birthday girls financial gain. I
thought your readers might want to
learn from my mistake.
Horrified in Wichita
Dear Horrified: While this may have
been shocking to you, the kind of par-
ty you have described may be accept-
able to your daughter and her circle
of friends. The birthday girls inten-
tions could have been made more
clear she requested money as gifts
and instructed everyone to meet at
the mall. However, they accepted the
invitation on her terms. I hope they
were fed after the mall crawl because
they must have been starving.
Dear Abby: My dad died unexpect-
edly last year, three months before
my 18th birthday. He had been kicked
out of the house a few months prior
to that because he was an alcoholic
who destroyed everything he ever
cared about. He froze to death, alone.
My boyfriend is has been my only
source of support since Dad died.
Mom ignores everything and has left
me alone to go through all of this,
spending my Social Security on vaca-
tions we could never have afforded
before. My best friend is away at
school in a different state and Im
more alone than ever. How am I sup-
posed to survive all this alone?
Always Alone
Dear Alone: Please accept my sympa-
thy for the tragic loss of your father,
who paid the ultimate price for his
addiction. If youre still in school,
counseling may be available for you if
there is a counselor on staff. Because
your mother is emotionally unavail-
able and your best friend is out of
state, your friends mother might be
willing to listen and advise you dur-
ing this difficult period.
Dear Abby: My mother-in-law is a
widow. She no longer wants to be
addressed as Mrs. because she is not
married. I thought that once married
you were always a Mrs. unless you
choose to be a Ms. Isnt it proper for a
widow to be addressed as Mrs.?
Daughter-In-Law in Washington
State
Dear Daughter-In-Law: As a
widow your mother-in-law can
continue to use her married name
or adopt any name she chooses.
If she prefers not to be called Mrs.
her wishes should be respected.
Some widows prefer to be called
Mrs. John Jones for the rest of
their lives, while others do not. If
your mother-in-law prefers Ms.
Betty Jones, thats fine, too. Its a
personal choice.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Mom of preteen is miffed that birthday party was a shopping spree
To receive a collection of Abbys most
memorable and most frequently re-
quested poems and essays, send a busi-
ness-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus
check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in
Canada) to: Dear Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box
447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage
is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Youll let
go of the past and turn toward
the future. You have a sense
that tomorrow will be better,
and youre right about that. Free
yourself to hop on a trend, move
with forward thinking.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The
events of the day highlight your
softer side. Progress depends
on listening closely to the voice
of your intuition, which can be
perceived through the muscles
of your body.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your first
impression will be on target,
though you may forget about it
as a relationship develops. So
write down your thoughts now,
and tuck them away to review
later.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Objectivity will be necessary.
There will be a reason to prac-
tice the Zen art of detachment.
Better to pull back emotionally
than to let your feelings over-
power your good judgment.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The ideal
teacher makes you feel good
about yourself. A mentor will be
most helpful now, as there will
be a problem to solve, or an atti-
tude to adjust.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There
are times when your subcon-
scious mind may be more power-
ful and a lot sneakier than your
conscious mind. Thats why it
helps to get in touch with what
youre going through.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Fun will
help your life, but only if youre
getting to know the right people.
Go where you feel welcome. If
you have to pretend in order to
fit in, its not a good fit.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Youll
be an inspector of sorts. Youll
notice what needs to be fixed
and report on what you see. The
problematic area might be in
your own life or someone elses.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
There are special features of
your life that you may want to
share with the people close to
you. In order to remember the
topics of conversation you most
want to bring up, make a list.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
You may be bored for a short
time, until you realize that your
environment, no matter how
stale it may seem, is always a
playground for your physical and
mental exploration.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Carefully choose your business
allies. You dont have to put
them through a test to recognize
the good ones. Youre savvy and
street smart enough to know
who will be good for you.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your
good luck will center on the help-
ful people in your life, including
partners, acquaintances, teach-
ers, counselors and clergy. Ask
for attention, especially by pos-
ing interesting questions.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Jan. 26).
Youll be happy with the prog-
ress of relationships through
February and March. Youll be
strong in business this sum-
mer. Be sure to invest in your
own fun times, as well. You may
have extra expenses involving
travel and entertainment in July.
Family will appreciate your gen-
erosity. Cancer and Capricorn
people adore you. Your lucky
numbers are: 9, 11, 3, 39 and 6.
