CLEMENS FOUND
NOT GUILTY
Roger Clemens was
acquitted Monday on all
charges that he ob-
structed and lied to
Congress in denying he
used performance-en-
hancing drugs to extend
his long career as one of
the greatest and most-
decorated pitchers in
baseball history. Fierce
on the pitching mound
in his playing days,
Clemens was quietly
emotional after the
verdict was announced.
Im very thankful, he
said, choking up as he
spoke. Its been a hard
five years, said the
pitcher, who was retried
after an earlier prose-
cution ended in a mis-
trial. Page 1B

former Penn State assistant foot-

counter prosecution witnesses
claims that he sexually abused

The testimony came on what
was a truncated day in a trial that

John Cleland told jurors the de-
fense could rest its case by
Wednesday, which would mean
closing arguments could come

This is all very tentative, you
understand, he told the 12 jurors
and four alternates, adding that
since they will be sequesteredina

It was still unclear howSandus-

Luzerne Countys tax base has
grown $27.5 million since Febru-
ary, according to a fresh snapshot
readingbythecountyassessorsof-
fice.
The analysis, known as a certifi-
cation, is completed three times a
year and shows the assessment of
taxable property increased from
$19.829billiononFeb. 9to$19.856
billiononJune12.
A $27.5 million assessment
growth wont put a huge dent in
government budgets. For exam-
ple, it equa-
tes to
$146,480 in
taxrevenue
for the
county at
the current
millage
rate.
However, officials inseveral mu-
nicipalities say the growthis a wel-
comesignthatnewdevelopmentis
ontherise, reducingtheburdenon
existing property owners.
The county tax base had de-
creasedabout $25millionbetween
November 2010and2011to$19.83
billion-- a loss blamedonthe econ-
omy and lingering assessment re-
ductions stemming fromthe 2009
countywide reassessment.
Rice Township had the largest
percentage increase in the four-
month period, with an additional
$3.1 million, or 1 percent, growth.
The municipalitys 1,660 taxable
propertieshaveacombinedassess-
ment of $307.5 million.
Township secretary/treasurer
Don Armstrong said the boost pri-
marily came from new homes in
four developments. These proper-
ties range from $300,000 to
$800,000, averaging around
$500,000, andparcelsarestill avail-
able, he said.

It is an absolutely beautiful
community and a great place to

strong said.

Butler Township Manager Ma-
ryanne Petrilla, a former county
commissioner, saidnewhomecon-
struction has been picking up in
the township.

Petrilla said.
Dallas Townshiptaxcollector Le-

WILKES-BARRE Bruce Lef-
kowitz will have a big day
Wednesday he will ask the city
planning commission and zon-
ing hearing board for approvals
of several zoning changes neces-
sary to transform the blighted
former Old River Road Bakery
building into a 22,000-square-
foot, state-of-the-art Harrolds
Pharmacy.Lefkowitz is now the
owner of the property that was
once slated to be the new home
of LAG Towing. That deal was
rescinded after public com-
plaints about the sale process.
Lefkowitz then was the success-
ful bidder to developthe site. He
closed on the property Monday,
paying $50,000 for the building
and 1.14 acres at the corner of
Old River Road and Beekman
Street.
According to the agenda for
Wednesdays zoning hearing
board meeting, Lefkowitz is
seeking a variance to establish a
pharmacy with related ancillary
uses, a variance to reduce the re-
quired number of off-street park-
ing spaces from 64 to 52 and a
variance to waive the required
screening along BeekmanStreet
for the proposed off-street park-
ingarea. Healsois seekingvaria-
nces to waive setback distances
for the proposed off-street park-
ing area from5 feet to zero along
BeekmanStreet andfrom15 feet
to 2 feet abutting the residential
zone (northwesterly side) bor-
dered by a railroad right-of-way.
Lefkowitz plans to move his
familys 65-year-old business at
179 Old River Road to the 250
Old River Road site of the for-
mer bakery. When City Council
approvedthe sale of the building
to Lefkowitz in March, he told
council he has secured the nec-
essary financing about $3.8

for changes from zoning and

Local political observers see
President Barack Obamas execu-

the deportation of some young
students and veterans who are in

Democratic Party in the Novem-
ber election.

They also can apply for a two-

The administration said the
change will affect as many as

of deportation.

DUBUQUE, Iowa Republi-
can presidential challenger Mitt
Romney is pushing to win a band
of Midwestern states that voted
for President Barack Obama four
years ago and that generally have
a long history of backing Demo-
crats in White House elections.
Romney faces hurdles and ad-
vantages in each state but his ap-
proach will leave Obama no
choice but to spend time and
money defending states he car-
ried in 2008. That Romney is
even making a making a play for
the arc of states from Pennsylva-
nia to Iowa also suggests his path
to the 270 electoral votes he will
need to win the White House
may be widening.
Its sending a pretty clear
message that the places the Dem-
ocrats have taken for granted,
they cant take for granted this
time, said Rich Beeson, Rom-
neys political director.
Before arriving in Iowa on
Monday, Romney stopped in Ja-
nesville, Wis., an economically
struggling, one-time manufactur-
ing hub in the southern part of
the state. Unemployment there is
9 percent, well above the state av-
erage of 6.8 percent for May. The
national average is 8.2 percent.
He toured Monterey Mills, a
unionized company that makes
fabric for paint rollers and the
stuffing for toys like Winnie the
Pooh.
The people of this country are
having a hard time. These are
challenging times for Americans,
and because of his failed record
his campaign is having a hard
time deciding what to talk
about, Romney said, the excited
crowd sitting amid packages of
fabric the company uses to make
its paint rollers.
Wisconsin, which has not
backed a Republican for presi-
dent since Ronald Reagan in
1984, presents a newopportunity
for Romney, almost exclusively
due to Gov. Scott Walkers tri-
umph two weeks ago in a conten-
tious recall election.
But he still has his workcut out
for him. Voters said in exit polls
after the June 5 election that they
trust Obama more to address the
nations economic struggles
the chief argument for Romney, a
former businessman and the
interests of the middle class.
Romney woos Midwest middle class
GOP candidate looks to make
President Obama defend
states he won in 2008.

LEHMAN TWP. -- Nearly two
months into this years second fis-
cal quarter, supervisorshaveyet to
seemanytaxdollars fromthefirst.
Treasurer Alvin Cragle said on
Mondaythat of what shouldbebe-
tween $90,000 and $100,000, only
about $14,000 has been made
available through the Pennsylva-
nia Local Government Invest-
ment Trust, a holding account for
taxmon-
ey run
by Penn-
sylvania
munici-
palities.
The board members all seemed
to be in agreement that the Cen-
tax-Don Wilkinson Tax Agency
has inefficientlyhandledthefunds
it began collecting in April as Lu-
zerne Countys tax agency.
They had three years to pre-
pare for this and they didnt do it,
Cragle said.
Chairman David Sutton said
the township budget will hold for
nowbut couldnot sustainsuchde-
lays much longer.
Our numbers sound OK, but
they wont be because, before you
knowit, you have to start robbing
Peter to pay Paul, he said.
A representative of Centax has
stated that several issues have
contributed to the delays, includ-
ing problems withemployers who
have provided incorrect informa-
tion. Centax said it is working ag-
gressively to resolve those issues.
Centax began collecting the tax
inJanuaryaspart of changesintax
collection procedures mandated
by Act. 32. The act requires most
of the states 67 counties to have
one tax collector for earned in-
come taxes. Previously the tax
was collected by tax collectors in
each community.
In another matter, Roadmaster
Douglas Ide brought the supervi-
sors up to speed on the Meeker
Road bridge replacement.

WHATS NEXT
LONDONPaul McCartney
can still rock at 70. What more
could a former Beatle want?
He celebrated his birthday in
private Monday, perhaps rest-
ing up between gigantic gigs
this summer. But he shows no
sign of slowing down as his mu-
sic is passed on to generations
too young to have seen him in
Wings, much less the Beatles.
Once a pot-smoking counter-
culture rebel, Sir Paul is very
much part of the British estab-
lishment now, closingQueenEl-
izabeth IIs Diamond Jubilee
concert earlier this month with
a mixof favorites that includeda
raucous All My Loving, one of
the Beatles first smash hits.
Hes also preparing for a fea-
tured role as the final act at the
July 27openingceremony of the
London Olympics just anoth-
er global audience of a billion or
more for one of the most pop-
ular performers in pop history.
Even McCartney may be a bit
nervous for that one, but he
wont be short of material: Con-
sider a back catalog that in-
cludes Yesterday, Eleanor
Rigby, Penny Lane and a few
dozen other classics, like Let It
Be and Hey Jude.
Its been a strong year for
McCartney, who in October
married his third wife, dark-
haired American heiress Nancy
Shevell, closing the book on his
failed union and messy divorce
fromsecond wife Heather Mills.

NUANGOLA Council acted
Mondaynight toaccept theresig-
nationof Melissa Weber as secre-
tary/treasurer and immediately
thereafter voted 5-0 to appoint
Sabine Thomas of Hanover
Township as her successor.
Webers decision followed on
the heels of Councilman John
Kochan becoming council presi-
dent after the May 31 ouster of
Regina Plodwick.
Plodwick had served as presi-
dent for more than six years.
Part of the first order of busi-
ness for Kochan was to propose
the hiring of Thomas, who he
said was a candidate two years
ago when Weber was retained.
Thomas said some of her area af-
filiations have been with the
Wilkes-Barre Art League and the
Cultural Council of Luzerne
County.
Kochan said an annual audit
done earlier this year by the ac-
countingfirmof Bonita&Rainey
will be expanded to include fi-
nancial work turned in by Weber
and as such, Kochan said, he is
puttinga holdonfiscal affairs un-
til the audit is complete.
However, council, at the rec-
ommendation of Councilman
Joe Tucker, approved a payment
of $11,721toM&J Excavatingfor

LEHMAN TWP. -- The Lake-Lehman
School Board approved the 2012-13 bud-
get with a 5-4 vote Monday evening.
Board members Mark Kornoski, Bo
Kreller, Karen Masters and David Pau-
lauskas voted against the measure. An-
drew Salko, James Welby, Richard Bom-
bick, Walter Glogowski and Kevin Carey
voted in favor.
The $26.8 million spending plan rais-
es taxes to 9.27 mills, which is a 4.26
percent increase for Luzerne County
taxpayers within the district. Amill is $1
tax for every $1,000 in assessed property
value.
The plan has $25.4 million in reve-
nues, leaving an approximately
$730,000 deficit to be offset by the dis-
trict fund balance.
The tax increase translates to an addi-
tional $56.81 per year for the average as-
sessed property value of $150,000 in
Harveys Lake Borough and Jackson,
Lake and Lehman townships. Residents
in Noxen Township in Wyoming County
will actually see a tax decrease due to
district rebalancing.
Kornoski said he couldnt vote for the
budget after the board voted to offer
teachers a 2.6 percent pay increase for the
2013-14 and 2014-15 school years at a spe-
cial meeting on Friday.
The district did manage to save on
health care as planned. Superintendent
James McGovern said the district had
planned to seek coverage outside the
Northeastern Pennsylvania School Health
Trust but remain in its vision and dental
programs. The two parties came to an
agreement after the trust filed a lawsuit
against the district.
We will receive the benefits we pro-
posed, but it will be through the health
trust, said McGovern.
He also said the district still has intent
to withdraw from the health trust by
June 2013, and that will not affect teach-
ers contracts in the future.
Residents expressed concern about
the budget after a presentation by busi-
ness manager Tom Melone.
One item at the peak of discussion was
the districts proposal to renovate a por-
L-L plan passes with tax hike
The $26.8 million budget boosts
property taxes for Luzerne County

no was sentenced in Luzerne
County Court on Feb. 23 to 18
months probation on two sepa-
rate counts of resisting arrest,
and one count each with carry-
ing a false identification card
and disorderly conduct.
Castrignano was arrested by
Wilkes-Barre police during a
disturbance at Academy Street
and Davis Place on May 8, 2011.
Castrignano was fighting with a
boyfriend and jumped into a

was detained.
Larksville police arrested
Castrignano on Dec. 31, 2011,
when she was found with an
open container of alcohol in a

ing with a boyfriend on East
Broadway Street causing a dis-
turbance investigated by police.
Castrignano was handcuffed

through yards and hiding under
a parked Jeep, arrest records
say.

WILKES-BARRE A judge for the
Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission
on Monday heard an earful on a proposed
PPL Electric Utilities rate hike fromlocal
residents and a state representative.
The PUChelda public hearinginBurke
Auditoriumat Kings College on PPLs re-
quest for a 16.3 percent increase in resi-
dential customers distribution charge,
which would add about $7 to the average
customers monthly electric bill.
First to speak was Omeed Firouzi, de-
livering a statement fromstate Rep. Phyl-
lis Mundy, D-Kingston, who couldnt at-
tend.
Mundy in her statement noted PPL
wants a base rate increase totaling $104.6
million, $104 million of which would be
allocated to residential customers while
commercial and industrial customers
would hardly see a difference.
She also noted the rate increase would
be a fixed monthly amount of about
$7.25, so customers would not be able to
avoid the increase by conserving energy.
And she noted PPL received rate hikes in
2004, 2007 and 2010 totaling $268.5 mil-
lion and the latest request would produce
a return of 11.25 percent.
I amshocked that the company would
even ask for such an increase in profit at a
time when the incomes of my constitu-
ents, and all Pennsylvanians, are so
strained by high prices, job losses and
losses in investment income, she said.
Frank Berbick, a Berwick resident who
owns a small electric business, askedhow
PPL was spending $9 to $14 monthly cus-
tomer charges from 1.4 million custom-
ers. Theyre driving around in new vehi-
cles all over the place. Doesnt anybody
look at this?
Berbick complained that PPL charges
commercial customers too much on de-
mand rates and is sending electricity of
unnecessarily high voltage to consumers
homes, which, he said, increases the
amount of kilowatt hours recorded on
electric meters, raising customers bills.
Hanover Township resident Joe Marc-
zak, who owns Sanitary Ice Manufactur-
ing in Wilkes-Barre, also railed about
PPLs demand charges. If PPL switches
grids and dips the power for a second, the
restart in-rush on my equipment will
make my demand go up.
A family of four who has air condition-
ers running and an on-demand water
heater dont pay demand charges, yet we
do, and we pay a premium. And they
wonder why businesses are leaving Penn-
sylvania? Youre killing us, Marczak said.
He said his average electric bill is triple
what it was when he took over the family
business in 2000. Quite honestly, I dont
know how much longer I can do it.
Barbara Smith, of Thornhurst Town-
ship, said she opposes any part of a rate
increase being used for the Northeast/
Pocono Reliability Project a proposed
high-voltage transmission line because
the project is not to provide reliability or
to meet demand in the Poconos. The
purpose of the project, it appears, is toput

WILKES-BARRE A tenta-
tive agreement between the
Northeastern Pennsylvania
School Districts Health Trust
and the Lake-Lehman School
District could put an end to a re-
cently filed lawsuit.
Luzerne County Judge David
Lupas had scheduled a hearing
after the health trust filed suit
late last month against the
school district, attempting to
prevent it from withdrawing
from the insurance-buying con-
sortium.
Attorneys in the case met re-
cently at a conference, postpon-
ing Mondays hearing between
the health trust, school district
and the districts unions.
A tentative agreement has
been made between the par-
ties, said district solicitor John
Audi. Were positive the matter
will be resolved.
Audi said he cannot disclose
the terms of the yet-to-be-made
agreement, but said if either
side rejects it, a hearing will be
held next Monday.
The parties are exploring a
potential resolution, said attor-
ney Scott Gartley, who repre-
sents the health trust.
Lake-Lehman teachers voted
over the weekend to extend
their contracts for two more
years. That agreement may have
smoothed out differences be-
tween the union and district
over its decision to leave the
health trust.
In May, the school district
proposed removing itself from
the trusts medical and prescrip-
tion drug programs in favor of a
self-funded plan that Superin-
tendent James McGovern said
could save the district about $1
million a year. The district
would continue to obtain dental
and vision benefits through the
trust.
The district had been denied
complete resignation by the
trust, which cited a one-year no-
tice requirement.
According to the lawsuit filed
by Gartley, the trust received a
letter dated May 15, notifying it
that the district wouldwithdraw
from medical and prescription
drug programs effective June
30.
In a separate letter also dated
May 15, the district said effec-
tive June 30, 2013, it wouldwith-
drawfromdental andvisionpro-
grams.
There are 13 schools in the
trust, with 3,500 eligible em-
ployee participants and approxi-
mately 4,000 of their depend-
ents receiving health care bene-
fits.
In April, Lake-Lehman agreed
tobepart of thehealthtrust, and
no school district has ever with-
drawn from the trust without
providing the required year no-
tice, the suit states.

Islamist claims victory
I
slamist candidate Mohammed Morsi
declared victory Monday in Egypts
first free presidential election since
Hosni Mubaraks ouster 16 months ago.
But just as polls were closing, the rul-
ing military council issued constitu-
tional amendments that gave sweeping
authority to maintain its grip on power
and subordinate the nominal head of
state.
After the last-minute power grab
Sunday night, the ruling Supreme
Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF)
pledged Monday to honor its promise
to hand over power to the newly elect-
ed president by the end of this month.
But the constitutional amendments
stripped the president of almost all
significant powers. The military de-
creed that it will have legislative au-
thority after a court dissolved parlia-
ment, it will control of the drafting a
new constitution and will not allow
civilian oversight of its significant
economic interests or other affairs.

U.S. officials said Monday that an

International Security Assistance Force
in Afghanistan, confirmed the death,
and said that the three Afghan shooters
fled and are being sought. Although
they were wearing police uniforms, it
was not yet clear if they were actually
Afghan forces or just had the clothing.
Other U.S. officials said that as many
as eight U.S. troops were injured, most-
ly with fairly minor wounds. The offi-
cials spoke on condition of anonymity
to discuss an investigation.
ORLANDO, FLA.
Zimmerman asked for vests
The former neighborhood watch
volunteer who killed Trayvon Martin
told his wife to buy bulletproof vests
for them and for his attorney, accord-
ing to jailhouse calls released Monday.
As uncomfortable as it is, I want you
wearing one, George Zimmerman told
his wife. Zimmerman was wearing a
bulletproof vest when he left jail after
posting bond. His attorney, Mark
OMara, has reported receiving threats.
The calls, released by prosecutors,
also detail how Zimmerman instructed
his wife to transfer money from bank
accounts and could play a crucial role
in his second bond hearing next week.
Zimmerman was released on
$150,000 bond in April, several days
after the calls took place.
TRENTON, N.J.
Student wont be deported
A former Rutgers University student
convicted of using a webcam to spy on
his gay roommate will not be deported
to his native India, federal immigration
authorities said Monday.
Twenty-year-old Dharun Ravi is due
to be released from the Middlesex
County Jail on Tuesday after serving
20 days of a 30-day jail sentence.
He was convicted this year of 15
criminal counts, including bias intimi-
dation and invasion of privacy, for
using a webcam to see his roommate
kissing another man in September
2010. Days later, the roommate, Tyler
Clementi, threw himself to his death
off the George Washington Bridge.

Neighborhood residents stand outside
a polling station Sunday in the Ab-

For some Egyptians who waited in
sweltering heat to vote on the second
day of presidential elections, their
choice had been rendered essentially
meaningless with the military poised
to hold onto the lions share of power
no matter who wins.
LOS CABOS, Mexico Seeking
common ground, President Barack
Obama said he and Russian President
Vladimir Putin agreed Monday on the
need for a political process in Syria to
prevent civil war in the violence-torn
country and said any tensions between
the United States and Russia can be
worked out.
The two men were meeting for the
first time since Putin returned to the
presidency amid friction over Syria and
a recognition that both need one anoth-
er, anuncomfortable truthfor Obama as
he wages a tough re-election campaign
andfor thenewlyelectedRussianleader
who is deeply suspicious of the United
States
Obama said that on Syria the two
agreed that we need to see a cessation
of the violence, that a political process
has to be created to prevent civil war
and the kind of horrific events that
weve seen over the last several weeks,
and we pledged to work with other in-
ternational actors, including the United
Nations, Kofi Annan, and all interested
parties in trying to find a resolution to
this problem.
Putin, seated next to Obama after
their two-hour meeting, said: Frommy
perspective, weve been able to find
many commonalities on Syria.
Neither leader mentioned Syrian
President Bashar Assad by name in
their public remarks or in a joint state-
ment issued after their meeting, thus
avoiding any express reference to past
U.S. demands that Assad step down.
The joint statement said: We are
united in the belief that the Syrian peo-
ple shouldhave the opportunity to inde-
pendently and democratically choose
their own future.
Beyond Syria, Obama and Putin dis-
cussed diplomatic efforts to head off a
confrontation with Iran. Obama said he
emphasized a common approach to
Iran, asserting there was still time and
space to resolve diplomatically con-
cerns about nuclear weapons.
The U.S. has sought Russias help to
lend legitimacy to the argument that
Iran faces broad international condem-
nation. Iran usually paints the dispute
over its nuclear programas a confronta-
tion with the U.S. and its ally Israel.
The Obama-Putin meeting was held
as Moscow played host to an interna-
tional negotiating session with Iran.
Russia has gone along with U.N. Securi-
tyCouncil efforts totightensome penal-
ties against Iran because of questions
about its nuclear weapons ambitions,
but has blocked the harshest puni-
shments.
The meeting was one of two major
foreign policy challenges preoccupying
Obamaduringhis twodays at theGroup
of 20 economic meeting. Much of the
rest of the summit was to be devoted to
the European fiscal crisis and the fate of
Greece as a part of the euro zone. Apro-
euro candidate is trying to forma Greek
coalition government following elec-
tions Sunday, but the anti-austerity sec-
ond-place party has refused.
The G-20 gathering is a natural forum
for sidelinediscussions of theurgent cri-
sis in Syria as well as diplomatic efforts
to head off a confrontation with Iran.
Russia is a linchpin in world efforts to
resolve both crises, and to U.S. goals for
the smooth shutdown of the war in Af-
ghanistan. In the longer term, Obama
wants Russias continuedcooperationin
nuclear disarmament and nonprolifera-
tion.
Obama, Putin agree on Syria
The two were meeting for the first
time since Russian leader returned

WASHINGTONThe 1,000-
page farmbill beingdebatedin
the Senate is somewhat of a mis-
nomer. Four of every five dollars
init roughly $80 billiona year
goes for grocery bills for one
of every seven Americans
through food stamps.
Republicans say Congress
could cut the cost $2 billion a
year byjust closingapair of loop-
holes that some states use to
award benefits to people who
otherwise might not qualify.
This is more thanjust a finan-
cial issue. It is a moral issue,
says Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala.,
one of several Republicans push-
ing for cuts in spending for the
Supplemental Nutrition Assist-
ance Program, commonly
known as SNAP.
Theprogramhas swelledfrom
28 million to 46 million partici-
pants and its costs have doubled
in the past four years. The reces-
sion and slow recovery have in-
creased the number of people
unemployed over the same peri-
od from 8 million to 12 million.
The Agriculture Department
credits the program with keep-
ing about 5 million Americans
out of poverty every year. Before
2004, people received paper
stamps or coupons worth $1, $5
or $10. Since then, all 50 states,
the District of Columbia, Puerto
Rico, the Virgin Island and
Guam have moved to debit-type
cards that allowrecipients to au-
thorize transferring their bene-
fits from a federal account to re-
tailer accounts.
Democrats ledby Sen. Kirsten
Gillibrand of New York are re-
sisting a proposal by Agriculture
Committee leaders in both par-
ties to trim a modest $250 mil-
lion from the program each year
by cracking down on abuses.
They say that would deprive
about half a million households
losing an average $90 a month in
food aid.
The Republican-controlled
House, which has yet to write its
own farm bill, is certain to de-
mand greater food stamp cuts,
too. Finding common ground
with the Democratic-led Senate
could be key to whether Con-
gress can pass a 1,000-page bill
that also makes fundamental
changes in farmsubsidies before
the current legislation bill ex-
pires at the end of September.
Sessions points out that the
federal government now spends
twice as much on food stamps as
it does on fixing the nations
roads and bridges, and that
SNAP is now the governments
second-largest federal welfare
program, following Medicaid.

DES MOINES, Iowa A group of Ro-
manCatholic nuns begana nine-state bus
tour protesting proposed federal budget
cuts Monday, saying they werent trying
to flout recent Vatican criticisms of so-
cially active nuns but felt called to show
how Republican policies are affecting
low-income families.
The tour was organized by Network, a
Washington-based Catholic social justice
groupcriticizedina recent Vaticanreport
that said some organizations led by nuns
have focused too much on economic in-
justice while failing to promote the
churchs teachings on abortion and same-
sex marriage. The Vatican asked U.S.
bishops tolookat Networks ties toanoth-
er group of nuns it is reorganizing be-
cause of what the church calls serious
doctrinal problems.
Sister Simone Campbell, Networks ex-
ecutive director, while the tour may ap-
pear to have been organized to counter
recent criticism of social activist nuns by
the Vatican and American bishops, it was
not. The timing was in response to con-
sideration of the federal budget in Con-
gress, she said.
Were doing this because of whats
happening on the Hill, she told The As-
sociatedPress inaninterview. Weredes-
perate to get the word out, thats why
were doing it now.
But if the 14 nuns who will rotate on
andoff the bus duringthe next twoweeks
werent trying to counter the Vatican,
they likely did little to ease its concerns
about social activism.
The tour kickedoff witha rallythat had
the feel of a political event. About 20 sup-
porters brought flowers and balloons and
sang, Alleluia, as the nuns boarded a
modern tour bus decorated with bright-
colored graphics.
While the nuns say they arent oppos-
ing any specific Republican candidate,
they plan stops at the offices of several
closely tied to the budget process, includ-
ing House Speaker John Boehner of
Ohio, and Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan, the
architect of the House-passed budget.
Their first stop Monday was Rep. Steve
Kings office in Ames. The tour will end
in Washington on July 2.
The mandate to crack downonsocially
active nuns upset some churchparishion-
ers who turned out to support the nuns.
They want to bully these nuns and
shut them down and tell them: Get back
in your place, ladies. No, its not going to
be that way anymore, said Mary Ann
McCoy, of Des Moines, who attends St.
Ambrose Cathedral.
ShesaidtheVaticanandbishops speak-
ing so harshly of nuns has split the
church.
Theyre women of courage, McCoy
said. Back in the Old Testament they
talkedabout prophets. Aprophet is some-
body who speaks for God and these are
the things that God talked about injus-
tice, the poor, the marginalized, woman.
Jesus was the greatest prophet when he
went out and he shook things up a lot.
Well, I think the sisters are walking the
walkandtalkingthe talkandthats whats
important to us.

WASHINGTON For people with
Alzheimers disease, a hospital stay may
prove catastrophic.
People withdementia are far more like-
ly to be hospitalized than other older
adults, often for preventable reasons like
an infection that wasnt noticed early
enough. Hospitals can be upsetting to
anyone, but consider the added fear fac-
tor if you cant remember where you are
or why strangers keep poking you.
Anewstudy highlights the lingering ill
effects: Being hospitalized seems to in-
crease the chances of Alzheimers pa-
tients moving into a nursing home or
even dying within the next year, Har-
vard researchers reported Monday. The
risk is higher if those patients experience
whats called delirium, a state of extra
confusion and agitation, during their
stay.
Its not clear exactly why, althoughspe-
cialists say delirium is especially bad for
an already damaged brain. But the re-
searchers, and independent Alzheimers
experts, agree caregivers need to know
the risk so they can help a loved one with
dementia avoid the hospital.
Its a very stressful time, being in the
hospital, says lead researcher Dr. Tam-
ara Fong, of the Harvard-affiliated Beth
Israel Deaconess Hospital and Hebrew
SeniorLife in Boston. Often families tell
her, Dadwas never the same after he had
that surgery and he was confused.
About 5.4 million Americans have Alz-
heimers or similar dementias, and the
disease is on the rise as the population
rapidly gets older. The disease will cost
Medicare and Medicaid about $140 bil-
lion this year alone, according to the Alz-
heimers Association. There is no cure,
and much of the cost is from treating not
the dementia itself but other health con-
ditions that dementia can aggravate. Alz-
heimers patients gradually lose the abil-
ity to manage their diabetes, high blood
pressure and other chronic ailments, or
even to convey that theyre feeling symp-
toms until anillness becomes serious, ex-
plains William Thies, the associations
scientific director.
Earlier this year, University of Wash-
ington researchers reported people with
dementia are more likely than other se-
niors to be hospitalized.

WILKES-BARRE -- The city
parking authority has postponed
todays meeting for one week be-
cause its chairman, Paul Maher,
is on vacation.
The authority will now meet
next Tuesday, June 26, at noon at
The Ramada Inn on Public Squa-
re.Maher expresseda desire tobe
at the next meeting, when the
board is expected to discuss the
five responses it receivedtoits re-
quest for qualifications on leas-
ing the citys parking assets, au-
thority solicitor Murray Ufberg
said.
The authority is expected to
discuss whether tosolicit bidpro-
posals to lease the parking ga-
rages, surface lots and parking
meters owned by the authority
and the city. Mayor Tom Leight-
on announced in April that the
city would explore a possible
lease of parking assets for a min-
imum bid price of $20 million
that would be reinvested into
public safety, anti-blight and in-
frastructure initiatives.
Its unknown whether the $20
million payment will be realized.
One respondent said the city
could expect $10 million and the
parking authoritys hired parking
consultant Desman Associates
of Chicago has distanced itself
from the higher figure.
The five-member authority
board would have to approve the
bid phase. If it did so, the board
would also decide whether to re-
tain its consultants Desman
and Fox Rothschild, the Philadel-
phia law firm represented by
Alan Wohlstetter. Fox Rothschild
hired former city administrator
J.J. Murphys company, Goals
Consulting, tohelpinthe project.
Wohlstetter is paid $400 per
hour by the parking authority,
and Murphys rate is $300 per
hour.
The authority capped its con-
sulting fees at its last meeting af-
ter several board members ex-
pressed concerns that spending
was getting out of line. The au-
thority has paid Wohlstetter,
Murphy and Desman approxi-
mately $120,000 in fees so far.
At the last meeting of City
Council, businessman Jim Casey
was appointed to the authority to
fill a vacancy. A closed-door
2
1
2-hour meeting attended by
Casey, Wohlstetter, Murphy and
city administrators was held to
bring Casey up to speed on au-
thority matters.
None of the attendees would
respond when asked who was
paying for Wohlstetter and Mur-
phy to be at the meeting.
Under Leightons proposal, all
city garages Park & Locks and
the Intermodal Transportation
Center and all parking lots and
meters would be leased to a ven-
dor. According to figures provid-
ed by the city, the total revenue
from parking charges was
$967,618 in 2011 and $738,851 in
2010.
The upfront payment would be
used to pay the remaining $8 mil-
lion of debt on the Intermodal
Transportation Center and other
garages, Leighton said. Remain-
ing funds would be used to add
police officers, pay for infrastruc-
ture improvements and attack
blighted properties, he said.

with a gun was sentenced Mon-
day to one year in the countys

Jeremy Ribaudo, 21, of Rock

IF NURSING HOME PLACEMENT BECOMES
NECESSARY DONT PRESUME ALL IS LOST!
Even under current law, there ARE still ways to legally protect your home and
other hard-earned assets from being spent down on long term care when you, your
spouse or a loved one are either in or about to enter a nursing home.
Can you save your residence?
Can you transfer assets within the ve year look-back period?
How can annuities help?
Can more income be protected for the spouse at home?
STRAIGHTFORWARD ANSWERS TO COMPLEX QUESTIONS!
THE SOONER YOU ACT, THE MORE YOURE ABLE TO SAVE!
In Loving Memory of
Martha Magich
Feb. 17, 1935 - June 19, 2011
Passed away one year ago today.
Please dont sing sad songs for me,
Forget your grief and fears,
For I am in a perfect place
Away from pain and tears.

WILKES-BARRE A city
man charged with stabbing
and injuring one woman and
assaulting another pleaded
guilty Monday to related
charges.
Raymond Vega, 41, of Airy
Street, entered the plea to
one count each of aggravated
assault and simple assault.
County Judge David Lupas
said Vega will be sentenced
on Aug. 13.
Assistant District Attorney
Shannon Crake is prosecut-
ing the case. Vega is repre-
sented by attorney Chris
ODonnell.
According to court papers,
on May 6, 2011, police were
called to an Airy Street apart-
ment for an unconscious
woman bleeding from a
wound on her neck.
Police said Tabitha Tirado
was taken to Geisinger
Wyoming Valley Medical
Center in Plains Township
for her injuries.
Police later learned that Ve-
ga was the boyfriend of Tira-
dos mother, Veronica Robles,
and that Vega arrived at the
house around 10 p.m. intox-
icated.
Police said an argument be-
gan over Vega being with an-
other woman and he began
calling Robles names. Robles
said she had enough and was
going to end their relation-
ship, and began throwing his
belongings outside.
Police said Vega threatened
Tirado, saying Why (did)
you tell your mom I was with
another chick? and threat-
ened to punch her in the

Robles and Tirado turned
to go into the house, and Ve-
ga entered by opening a win-
dow and left with a bag.
Robles tried to stop Vega,
alleging he had stolen items
from her in the past, and Ve-
ga swung at her, but missed.
Tirado stepped in and was
punched in the face by Vega,
who then punched Robles.
Robles son, Ryan, strug-
gled with Vega when Vega
grabbed a knife from the
kitchen counter.
Thats when, police said,
Vega stabbed Tirado in the
neck. Vega tried to leave the
house, but Robles son sub-
dued him until police arrived.
Court papers say Tirado
had to undergo surgery to re-
pair the injuries from the stab
wound that cut her jugular
vein and punctured her tra-
chea.
Police said had the injuries
not been treated as quickly as
they had, the wound would
have resulted in Tirados
death.

said.
Robert Shortz, of Wilkes-
Barre, said most peoples in-
come is down and at the same
level as in 2003. For PPL to
ask for a rate increase at this time
when customers really have no
(access) to additional income
is irresponsible and it becomes a
de facto form of stealing. I mean,
youre just reachingintoour pock-
ets (saying) Lets have some
more when people have no abil-
ity to acquire more money.
After the hearing, PPL spokes-
man Kurt Blumenau addressed
some of the remarks.

ment in our system. We plan to
do about $900 million in im-

the end of this year.
As for residential customers
seeing the brunt of the increase,
Blumenau said thats because a
2006 court decision directed PPL
to even out its rate system to be
more fair to commercial and in-
dustrial customers, whom, he
said, historically have paid
more than their share, subsi-
dizing residential customers,
and this proposed move would
be another step in that transi-
tion.
And he noted more than half
the distribution charge is a varia-
ble rate on which customers can
still save money by conserving
energy.

W. Pittston Project seeks
a safe future for town
T
hank you, Times Leader, for your sup-
portive and thorough coverage of West
Pittstons flood recovery efforts.
We are especially appreciative of your
article in Sundays paper about West Pitt-
ston Tomorrows flood control and levee
projects. WPT project champions Bob
Russin and Sam Pollit are doing an ex-
traordinary job and wont rest, Im sure,
until the levee is built. They deserve the
thanks and support of all West Pittston
residents, not just flood victims.
Id like to present a few additional con-
siderations:
Look at a map of both sides of the Sus-
quehanna River at West Pittston. At the
northern end, the Lackawanna River emp-
ties into the Susquehanna like an arrow
pointing at the heart of West Pittston.
Duryeas flood control project is almost
finished. Senator Casey is constantly pho-
tographed on Scrantons levee. The Army
Corps spokesman didnt address that part
of West Pittstons flood equation.
Another component of WPTs project is
evaluation of the removal of islands and
alluvial fill to improve the river flow and
reduce floodwater levels. That is some-
thing that was lacking in the rush to pro-
tect Wilkes-Barre, Kingston and Forty Fort
in the 1980s. Were looking to help all river
towns south of West Pittston.
Just a few years ago Wilkes-Barre cele-
brated a $23 million project championed
by West Pittston resident Jim Brozena in
which two holes were punched in Wilkes-
Barres dikes not one, but two so that
people could enjoy the river. How many
people use those areas 24 hours a day,
seven days a week compared to the men,
women and children who live, work, play
and go to school in West Pittston 24 hours
a day, seven days week? Who did the cost
benefit analysis for Wilkes-Barre on that
project? We want to hire him or her! That
project would have paid for a lot of flood
protection for all the towns hit in Septem-
ber 2011.
West Pittston is not a trailer park. The
borough was incorporated in 1857 but
settled long before that. Many of us have
lived here for generations, in homes that
were our parents and grandparents. It has
a rich history that we share with other
West Side towns. We, too, are looking
forward to celebrating their 125th anni-
versary with our Forty Fort neighbors this
weekend. We understand their sentiments.
Forty Fort residents werent blamed for
living where they did in 1972, nor Wilkes-
Barre, told: tough, youve got a mall else-
where, so move. West Pittston was de-
stroyed in 2011 so that others could be
saved and it hurts deeply, very deeply, that
neighbors and public officials are piling the
hurdles higher in our quest for safety this
time around instead of asking how can we
help protect you, too.

K
MITT ROMNEY has at-
tacked Amtrak subsidies
the way a cows tail swats
flies: An inborn reflex that
requires zero thought. My
question: Has Romney ever
ridden Amtrak?
If he had, he might have met the people
my wife and I encountered en route to Flag-
staff, Ariz., and back to hike the Grand Ca-
nyon (photos and some more info will be
forthcoming on my blog).
Romney could have run into the woman
on the platform at Syracuse, N.Y., heading to
Mesa, Ariz., for her daughters 40th birth-
day. One reason to take the train: She could
carry a lot - including more than a few ounc-
es of liquid - not allowed on airlines.
Or he may have chatted with the char-
ming lady from Melbourne, Australia who
was returning to California for a flight home
after visiting her son in Ames, Iowa. Taking
a train let her just see America while
avoiding yet more time in an airplane.
We had supper on the train with Robert
and his daughter Cheryl from the Reading
area. A Korean War vet, Robert uses trains
frequently, often to visit Florida.
On our return trip, we breakfasted with
Renee, a long-time Los Angeles psychothera-
pist who had relocated to Santa Fe and was
returning there after visiting Los Angeles
friends. She said she routinely uses Amtrak
between Santa Fe and LA.
We ate breakfast with two Bostonians
offering this opinion of their former gover-
nor. It was like he wasnt even there, the
husband said. He was always out politic-
king, running for president.
The reason people take trains? Like us,
they find it relaxing. The travel becomes
part of the vacation, not a journey to it. As
the Boston husband said, The best part is
watching the countryside change.
Of course, there are other reasons, like the
woman we met on a prior trip who said her
sister died in plane crash, prompting this
personal conviction: I will never get on an
airplane again.
But by all means, cut Amtrak subsidies
without talking to Amtrak riders, without
investigating what it is, exactly, you will
help or hurt, without pondering the wisdom
of maintaining a strong third leg in the
transportation tripod of auto, plane and
train. Remember when 9/11 grounded
planes across the country?
And the savings are astronomical, by
which I mean, astronomically small. Federal
Amtrak subsidies run about $1.5 billion a
year. In a $3.5 trillion federal budget, thats a
cut of 0.043 percent. Drop Amtrak subsidies
for about 1,000 years and youll save enough
to pay for one-year of current deficit spend-
ing. Debt problem solved!
Granted, the perennial conservative cow-
tail swat at Amtrak can sound compelling; a
particularly strong argument was made in a
Cato Institute paper in 2010 (Ill post links
to all cited material on my blog). Of course,
Cato also argues for privatizing road con-
struction and maintenance.
The argument always boils down to cost-
per-passenger mile. A common calculation:
Tax dollars subsidize Amtrak to the tune of
24 cents per passenger mile, compared to 2
cents for driving.
How you do the math matters, though. An
October 2011 blog by David C. on greater-
washington.org counters that subsidized
costs go far beyond direct payments from
the feds. Tax money also covers the cost of
coping with air pollution, subsidized park-
ing, resource consumption, crash damage,
land use and noise. C suggests Amtraks
total subsidies are 44 cents per passenger
mile compared to 45 cents for a car.
Another hidden cost of cars: A recent
study estimated time and fuel wasted in
traffic congestion costs $78.2 billion a year.
If were going to discuss cutting Amtrak
subsidies, we should actually discuss it, not
toss it out with a flippant indifference to
facts, as Romney did in January.
Look he told supporters, Amtrak ought
to stand on its own feet or its own wheels or
whatever youd say.
Trains use wheels, Mr. Romney, and they
carry real people. Try talking to a few.

AY THERES no
chance, Lance.
Doping allegations
against cycling cham-
pion Lance Armstrong are
nothing new. Yet the latest
charges by the U.S. Anti-Dop-
ing Agency may represent the
most serious threat to date to
Armstrongs legacy, because
the USADA has the power to
strip him of his past titles and
the credibility to tarnish his
name forever.
Coincidentally, the accusa-
tions against Armstrong, in-
cluding test results from 2009
and 2010 that the USADA says
are fully consistent withblood
manipulation, arose as anoth-
er American sports icon, pitch-
er Roger Clemens, awaiteda ju-
ry verdict on charges of perjury
for allegedly lying to Congress
about his steroid use (Clemens
was acquitted Monday). And
Armstrong and Clemens are
far from unique. In fact, their
two sports, cycling and base-
ball, seem to have been awash
in performance enhancing
drugs at the time the two
champs were at the top of their
games, leading some to ques-
tion why the courts or sporting
associations should even both-
er to pursue such cases. After
all, if Armstrong and Clemens
were competing against ath-
letes who were doped up, what
difference does it make if they
too were riding the needle?
The answer is that not every-
body was doped up. Steroids,
human growth hormone, tes-
tosterone, EPO(an endurance-
boosting drug allegedly used
by Armstrong) and other
banned substances give some
athletes an unfair advantage
over others who play by the
rules.
The worst days of doping
are, we hope, behind us. So
many Tour de France winners
have had their titles stripped
and been banned from compe-
tition because of illegal drug
use that the dangers of cheat-
ing should, by now, be obvious
to all competitors. But then,
thats the point: Without inves-
tigations like the one under
way against Armstrong, cy-
cling, andbaseball, wouldsure-
ly be as dirty as ever. .
Its disheartening to see so
many sports heroes humbled,
and for our part, we hope Arm-
strong is innocent not only
because wed like to believe
that his remarkable achieve-
ments were legitimate, but be-
cause his story as a testicular
cancer survivor whowent onto
become one of the most suc-
cessful athletes in history has
inspired millions battling their
own cancers. But if hes guilty,
there are no good excuses.

T
UNASEMA asante,
Father Thomas OHa-
ra.
You promised to
come back, but we understand.
Upon stepping down as
Kings College President, you
announced plans to return to
the college and teach after a
one-year sabbatical, likely
spending time in Africa a
move that prompted one stu-
dent to offer the above phrase,
Swahili for we say thank you.
But it turns out your leader-
shipskills drewtheattentionof
those outside our county,
prompting fellow members of
the Holy Cross order to elect
you as the Provincial Superior
of the Congregation of the Ho-
ly Cross United States Prov-
ince of Priests and Brothers.
Its a lofty title for a man of
humble roots, a Hazleton na-
tive who became the first
Kings College grad appointed
as the Wilkes-Barre schools
president. But area residents
who watched your work have
noreasontodoubt youdeserve
the honor.
You reshaped North Main
Street by rehabilitating or re-
placing abandoned eyesores.
You helped forge the alliance
with Wilkes-University that
brought a Barnes & Noble
bookstore downtown. You
seamlessly merged a divided
campus by converting part of
Franklin Street into Monarch
Court.
The list of positive contribu-
tions to our area is long. And
now that your election means
you will be elsewhere for much
of the next six years, it seems a
good time to reiterate our grat-
itude.
We say thank you, Father
Thomas OHara.

Lefkowitz said Monday the

sent pharmacy. He said that once
the building is renovated and the
pharmacy is moved in, he will
consider renting any excess
space.
We will have much more
room at the new site, he said.
And the parking will be much
improved for our customers.
Lefkowitz said Harrolds will
retain its delivery service that
currently has 13 cars delivering
to customers throughout Lu-
zerne and Lackawanna counties.
Harrolds employs 50 people and
might hire more, he said.
We plan on expanding some
departments in the new build-
ing, he said. We will offer more
comprehensive services to our
customers.
Lefkowitz said the pharmacy
has a compounding department
that mixes medications for hu-
mans and pets. He said infusion
therapy is offered in which his
staff prepares IVs ina sterile envi-
ronment for home use.
Weve been in business for 65
years, Lefkowitz, 47, said. We
wanted to stay in the neighbor-
hood. We feel very positive about
this project.
Lefkowitz, doing business as
250 Old River Road Properties
LLC, said his new pharmacy will
have a positive impact on the
community. He said he already
has a potential buyer interested
in his current building.
When Lefkowitz first ex-
pressed interest in the former
bakery building, he said, We in-
tend to take an eyesore and turn
it into something really nice.
This will be great for the city and
great for our business.
Mayor Tom Leighton issued a
statement after the city and Lef-
kowitz closed on the property
Monday afternoon.
Every resident of the city will
be pleased to see this former eye-
sore in South Wilkes-Barre re-
turned to productive use,
Leighton said. I commend
Bruce Lefkowitz for his contin-
ued faith in the future of Wilkes-
Barre and we are proud to keep
this thriving, family-owned insti-
tution in the city.

Cleland told jurors of the possi-
ble timeline after three defense
witnesses testified Sandusky was
anadmiredlocal figurebecauseof
his ties to Penn State and the ou-
treach of The Second Mile, the
charity for at-risk youth that the
defendant foundedin1977.
Former Penn State assistant
coach Dick Anderson, who
worked with Sandusky
forseveral years, testified
heandother members of
the football staff were
present when Sandusky
brought young boys into
theteams showers.
He said he never wit-
nessed anything inap-
propriate.
If Jerry would bring
someone in with The
Second Mile, they had
been working out, for
whatever reason they
came in, it was not un-
common ... with the oth-
er coaches inthe shower
as well, Andersonsaid.
Anderson, who coached at
Penn State from1970 to1983 and
again from 1990 to 2011, said
adults and children often shower
togetheratgyms. Henoted, forex-
ample, its not unusual for him to
be inthe showers withboys at the
YMCA.
Anderson took the stand after
prosecutors presented their 21st,
andfinal,witness,awomanwhose
son said Sandusky raped him in
thebasement of thecoachshome.
The woman said her son, la-
beled Victim 9 in court records,
told her Sandusky called himlate
one night after the first round of
charges were filed in November,
asking if hed be a character wit-
ness. But the next month, prose-
cutors brought charges against
Sandusky, alleginghedhadforced
anal sexwiththeboy.
The womansaidher sons laun-
drywouldoftenbeshort of under-

Ialwayswonderedwhyhenev-

dry, she said. There was never
any underwear, any socks ... that
was oddtome.
AlsoMonday, prosecutorswith-
drewonecount against Sandusky,
saying the statute he was charged
under did not apply at the time of
theallegedillegal contact.
That leaves 51counts involving

ful reputation inthecommunity.

Another former Penn State
coach, Booker Brooks, took the
stand to vouch for Sanduskys
character, asdidaStateCollegear-
ea political consultant, Brent Pas-
quinelli, who raised money for
The Second Mile. Brooks said
Sanduskys reputation
was exemplary, top-
notch, while Pasquinel-
li called Sandusky a lo-
cal hero.
Besides Anderson,
Brooks and Pasquinelli,
three other witnesses
testified for the defense
Monday: a woman who
ran a golf-related charity
that oneaccuserwasrec-
ommended for by Sand-
usky, a young man who
knewSanduskythrough
The Second Mile and
vouched for his reputa-
tion, and a teacher who
said Sandusky seemed genuinely
interestedinhelpingoneof theal-
legedvictimsinthecase.Eachwas
on the stand for no more than 10
minutes.
Anumber of potential witness-
es could still testify. Along with
Sandusky himself, they include
his wife, Dottie; an expert who
could discuss whether Sandusky
has histrionic personality disor-
der, as his lawyers have said in
court papers; andaphysicianwho
spoke with key prosecution wit-
ness Mike McQueary the day he
allegedly saw Sandusky attack a
childintheshower in2001.
Thedefenselistofpotential wit-
nesses also included members of
Paternos family, but it was un-
clear how they might fit into the
defense case or whether they will
becalled.
Tom Kline, a Philadelphia law-
yer who represents one of the ac-
cusers, said he was served a de-

ing him to produce a copy of the

interactions withreporters.
Lawyers involved in the crimi-
nal case are barred fromspeaking

In their questions to prosecu-

sought toshowhowthe stories of
accusers have changed over time,
that they were prodded and

The boroughs $700,200 assess-

tion, in most parts of the country
the order will not affect congres-
sional races.
Locally, however, it could be a
top-tiertalkingpoint intheracefor
the 11th Congressional District
nowrepresentedby Barletta.
It gives him an issue that has
dropped down in voters eyes the
past couple of years, said Borick.
He has made his career on this is-
sue.
For Barletta, who has been on
theillegal immigrationforefront as
Hazleton mayor and nowas a con-
gressman, the presidents action
hasreignitedanissuehewill surely
try tocapitalize on.
It once again raises his profile
and gives him an opportunity to
shine the spotlight on it, Borick
said.
His opponent, Gene Stilp, a
Democrat from suburban Harris-
burg, has not taken a position on
the presidents action. OnMonday
he issuedanemailedresponse toa
request for comment saying, This
isnotthetimeforrhetoric. Thisisa
very difficult issue and the posi-
tions are not always black and
white. Congresshasgiventhepres-
ident the ability to issue executive
orders and he has done so. The

responded to requests for com-
ment.
IMMIGRANT
More than 700 Luzerne Coun-
ty properties are in limbo be-
cause theydidnt sell at past back-
tax auctions, a newcounty asses-
sors office certification shows.
The properties stay in a pool
known as the repository, generat-
ing no taxes, unless somebody
buys them.
The county had around 500
properties in the repository in
2010, records show.
Northeast Revenue Service
LLC, the countys tax claimoper-
ator, has tried to promote the
properties and assisted in the
sale of 42 since February, reduc-
ing the inventory from 777 to a
current 735, records show.
But the number will rise again
after the next free-and-clear tax
auction in August, said John
Rodgers, president of Northeast
Revenue.
Were selling a lot, but every
time we have a tax sale, more get
put on, Rodgers said.
Rodgers said the repository al-
so grew because his company
stopped the past practice of keep-
ing eligible properties out of tax
sales.
Properties with two-year prop-
erty tax delinquencies are sup-
posed to go to auction unless the
owners obtain court orders, com-
ply with payment plans or are en-
gaged in an active bankruptcy
proceeding.
Northeast Revenue keeps an
updated posting of all available
repository properties on its web-
site along with an application
form required to submit an offer.
Interested buyers of repository
properties may submit an offer at
any time.
Most properties are listed at
$800 or less, with back taxes for-
given.
All three taxing bodies -- the
school district, county and mu-
nicipality -- must approve a sale
for it to take effect.
Northeast Revenue also has
tried to reach out to neighboring
property owners about parcels
they may be interested in pur-
chasing, he said.
Rodgers plans tosendletters to
municipalities informing themof
properties up for grabs. Munici-
palities have an interest in find-
ing buyers to get the properties
back on the tax rolls, he said.
He also plans an advertising
campaign this summer explain-
ingthe purchase process andpos-
sibly highlighting some of the
more attractive properties.
We really do have to get them
marketed. Some are valuable, he
said.
The repository also includes
unwanted catch basins, roads
and land slivers from developers
who stopped paying taxes after
they sold desirable properties
and completed construction pro-
jects.
Rodgers has advised govern-
ment officials to stop adding new
water runoff systems and roads
to sales because he doesnt want
them sold to unsuspecting
buyers or put in the repository,
subjecting the county to poten-
tial liability.
Instead, these properties con-
tinue to accrue taxes and remain
in the property owners names,
another form of limbo status.
Properties didnt sell at past
back-tax auctions and will
generate no taxes until sold.

The defense in Jerry Sandus-
kys childsexual abusetrial is sug-
gesting that a personality disor-
der explains some of the charges
the former Penn State assistant
football coach faces, but one ex-
pert says that may be a stretch.
Sanduskys lawyers arearguing
he suffers fromhistrionic person-
ality disorder. Its defined by the
American Psychiatric Associ-
ations diagnostic manual as a
pervasive pattern of excessive
emotionality and attention seek-
ing that is often characterized
by inappropriate sexually seduc-
tive or provocative behavior and
rapidly shifting emotions.
According to the National In-
stitutes of Health, histrionic per-
sonality disorder occurs more of-
ten in women than in men.
One expert, however, ques-
tions whether it is a separate per-
sonalitydisorder, orjust anaspect
of broader personality defects.
It has beenremoved fromthe
fiftheditionof theDiagnosticand
Statistical Manual of Mental Dis-
orders, althoughit may be placed
in an appendix for further study,
said Dr. Renato Alarcon of the
Mayo Clinic. Hes part of the per-
sonality disorders working group
that reviews changes to the
manual, known as the bible of
mental illness.
Prosecutors say Sandusky sex-
ually abused young men over a
period of years. They say he tar-
geted victims at a charity he
founded, groomed them for
abuse, and then moved from
touching and kissing to more se-
vere forms of sexual abuse, in-
cludinginsome cases oral or anal
sex. Sandusky has denied all the
allegations.
Sanduskys lawyers, who be-
gan presenting their defense
Monday, plan to raise the disor-
der issue to suggest that his ex-
tensive correspondence with one
of the alleged victims wasnt nec-
essarily grooming boys to mo-
lest them but instead might be
trying to satisfy the needs of a
psyche with the disorder.
The jury shouldnot be misled
into believing these statements
and actions are likely grooming
when they are just as likely or
more likely histrionic in origin,
wrotedefenseattorneyKarl Rom-
inger in the June11filing.
But Dr. Glen Gabbard, clinical
professor of psychiatryat theBay-
lor College of Medicine in Hous-
ton, said histrionic personality
disorder could in no way be seen
as a reason or explanation for the
abuse of children.
That diagnosis, if he has it,
wouldbecompletelyirrelevant to
anythinghavingtodowithcrimi-
nal responsibilityfor acts of pedo-
philia, said Gabbard, an expert
on personality disorders.
The disorder did figure in one
controversial NewJersey murder
case. Kristina Burris was convict-
ed of killing her mother in 1992,
but the case was overturned on
appeal.

T
he last three passes of his high
school career were all intercept-
ed, and may have been the
difference between winning and losing
the Big 33 Football Classic.
That didnt stop Skylar Mornhinweg
from drawing plenty of praise.
I think hes a great quarterback,
said one of his targets Saturday, Penn-
sylvania wide receiver Eugene Lewis
who played his high school football
career for Wyoming Valley West.
Oh, he showed me he was very
smart, very poised in the pocket, said
Pennsylvania linebacker Nyeem Wart-
man from Valley View.
Both of those highly-touted North-
eastern Pennsylvania recruits are
headed to play for Penn State in the
fall. And there was a time they
thought Mornhinweg would be joining
them in Happy Valley.
The son of current Philadelphia
Eagles quarterbacks coach and former
Detroit Lions head coach Marty Morn-
hinweg was much more than a kid
with an NFL upbringing while star-
ring for St. Joes Prep in Philadelphia.
Mornhinweg threw for at least 1,500
yards during all three of his high
school seasons as a starting quarter-
back, capping his impressive career
with 21 touchdown passes, 1,770 pass-
ing yards and 747 rushing yards as a
senior while earning the Philadelphia
Catholic League Class 4A MVP award.
His 4,859 passing yards were the
fifth-highest total in Philadelphias
history, and Mornhinweg was all set
to continue his phenomenal football
run by staying in-state and heading to
Penn State.
Then something changed.
The Jerry Sandusky scandal hit,
legendary Nittany Lions coach Joe
Paterno was fired, and countless top
recruits reconsidered playing for a
school trying to rebuild a tarnished
reputation behind first-year head
coach Bill OBrien.
One of those kids was Mornhinweg.
That was just a rough deal, Morn-
hinweg said, not willing to offer much
more about his change of heart. Penn
States going to be fine.
So will he.
When the dust cleared on college
footballs recruiting season, Mornhin-
weg accepted a scholarship to play for
pass-happy Florida, where he expects
to battle his way into the lineup as a
freshman.
But his audible didnt make some
members of Penn States incoming
freshman class overly happy.
Im kind of disappointed, Wart-
man said. We got close over the
years. I sort of recruited him to come
(to Penn State). Its kind of sad.
Lewis didnt find the Mornhinwegs
decision quite as distressing, but he
was looking forward to catching
Mornhinwegs passes beyond Sat-
urdays Big 33 Classic.
When he committed (to Penn
State), I was very excited, Lewis said.
But at the end of the day, youve got
to do whats best for you. And the
best thing for him was to go to Flor-
ida.
Mornhinweg may not have been at
his very best at Hersheypark Stadium,
where his final interception in over-
time sealed Pennsylvanias 24-21 de-
feat.
Ive got to put the ball in better
spots, Mornhinweg said about his
lackluster ending to a spectacular high
school career. I tried to force a cou-
ple of things. But it was a great expe-
rience.
Before that, fans at the Big 33 got a
chance to experience some of Morn-
hinwegs brilliance, as he made quick
reads, moved in the pocket and threw
darts all over the field to finish 6-for-9
for 127 yards.
It turned out to be his final goodbye
to this state.

DALLAS The West All-Stars came
out swingingat the 33rdannual Robert
L. Dolbear All-Star Softball Game
sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Dal-
las.
Seven of the first eight batters from
the West had hits in the first inning,
scoring six quick runs in a 12-2 victory
over the East on Monday at the Back
Mountain Little League Complex.
We were actually the underdogs,
said Pittston Areas Marissa Nardone,
who was named the Wests MVP after
the team compiled 20 hits. Everyone
thought that Nanticoke (the East
squad, which featured eight seniors
from the state Class 2A semifinalists)
would beat us.
Lake-Lehmans Tiff
Oplinger doubled to
center tostart the bot-
tom of the first. She
scored on a single to
right by Nardone two
batters later.
Yesterday I had a
slow-pitch tournament, said Nar-
done, who gave special thanks to her
All-Star coach, Wyoming Areas Ste-
phanie Griffin, for adding her to the
roster. My brother, he said I wouldnt
be able to hit today.
Oplinger finished with three hits,
adding infield singles in the sixth and
eighth innings.
Ashley Inmanof Tunkhannockstart-
ed in the clean-up spot for the West,
and clean up she did. She had a run-
scoring single to right in the first in-
ning, a single to left in the second in-
ning and single to left in the fifth.
Inman scored three runs.
But Nardone had the biggest game
on the areas grandest stage. The Pitt-
ston Area grad led off the second in-
ning with a single to left. She also had
an RBI-double to center in the sixth in-
ning and scored three runs.
This was really great, said Nar-
done, who is heading to Kings in the
fall to study pre med after being in-
spired by her mother, a cancer survi-
vor. Duringthe year, if it wasnt for my
dad and my brother helping me, I
wouldnt have had as good of a season
as I had.

NEW YORK R.A. Dick-
ey became the first major
league pitcher in 24 years to
throw consecutive one-hit-
ters and Ike Davis hit a
grand slam to lead the New
York Mets past the Balti-
more Orioles 5-0 on Monday
night.
Coming off a one-hit gem
at Tampa Bay last Wednes-
day, the knuckleballer struck
out a career-high 13 and
allowed only Wilson Be-
temits clean single in the
fifth inning.
The previous pitcher to
throw consecutive one-hit-
ters was Dave Stieb for To-
ronto in September 1988,
according to STATS LLC.
The Mets said the last to do
it in the National League
was Jim Tobin with the Bos-
ton Braves in 1944, accord-
ing to research by the Elias
Sports Bureau.
Yankees 6, Braves 2
NEW YORK CC Sa-
bathia struck out 10, Derek
Jeter drove in three runs and
the New York Yankees won
their 10th straight game,
beating the Atlanta Braves.
Mark Teixeira and Rob-
inson Cano hit solo home
runs as the Yankees matched
their longest winning streak
since May 2005.
The team with the ALs
best record kept rampaging
in interleague play all 10
of these triumphs have come
against NL teams with win-
ning records, including a
sweep at Turner Field last
week.
Indians 10, Reds 9
CLEVELAND Lonnie
Chisenhall and Casey Kotch-
man had three RBIs apiece
as the Cleveland Indians
ended Cincinnatis six-game
winning streak with a win
over the Reds.
Chisenhall and Kotchman
hit two-run homers, and
both drove in runs in the
sixth inning off Sam LeCure
(2-2) as Cleveland snapped a
7-7 tie.
Cubs 12, White Sox 3
CHICAGO Bryan La-
Hair and Alfonso Soriano
homered to lead the Chicago
Cubs to a victory over the
White Sox in the opener of
the crosstown, interleague
series.
With winds gusting to 41
mph the Cubs had season
highs of five home runs, 15
hits and 12 runs.
Astros 9, Royals 7
HOUSTON Brian Bixler
drove in a career-high three
runs on three hits, including
his first career homer, and
Justin Maxwell and Brian
Bogusevic also homered as
the Houston Astros held off
the Kansas City Royals for a
win.
J.A. Happ (5-7) yielded
four hits and two runs in
6-plus innings to break a
four-game losing streak. It
was his first start since al-
lowing 11 hits and eight runs
both career highs in
Houstons 10-0 loss to San
Francisco in which Matt
Cain threw a perfect game.
Brewers 7, Blue Jays 6
MILWAUKEE Aramis
Ramirezs liner down the
left-field line was ruled a
home run after umpires
reversed a foul ball call us-
ing video replay in the sev-
enth inning that snapped a
tie and lifted the Milwaukee
Brewers to a victory over the
Toronto Blue Jays.
Ramirez hit a 1-2 pitch off
rookie Robert Coello (0-1)
that hit the outside corner
of a yellow pad below the
foul pole. Third base umpire
Paul Nauert ruled it a foul
ball. He agreed to check
video replay after discussing
the play with Milwaukee
manager Ron Roenicke and
third base coach Ed Sedar
while watching a fan dramat-
ically pound the pad in ques-
tion.

STANDINGS/STATS
DETROIT The Tigers have
been winning lately six victo-
ries in eight games since Austin
Jackson came off the disabled
list.
It doesnt seem a coincidence.
He kind of gets everything
startedfor us, saidDetroit catch-
er Alex Avila, who is hoping to
get off the DL himself this week
and join Jackson in the lineup.
Its not a surprise to us that hes
that important to our team.
Jackson is a speedy center fiel-
der who is tough to replace be-
cause he covers
a lot of ground
and helps De-
troits corner
outfielders.
If you hit in
his direction,
make sure you
hit it far enough
towherehecant catchit inthe
shrubs, Colorado Rockies man-
ager Jim Tracy said.
Hes also a valuable leadoff hit-
ter, getting on base regularly for
sluggers Miguel Cabrera and
Prince Fielder. Jacksons average
is up to .323 after hitting .293 as a
rookie two years ago and slump-
ing to .249 last year. He already
has seven homers just three
from matching his career high
from last year.
His numbers areupbecausehis
strikeouts are way down. He has
struck out 38 times in 44 games
after fanning an AL-high 170
times as a rookie and finishing
second in the league with 181 in
the dubious category.
The holes arent as large as
they used to be, Tracy said. If
you make a mistake, he makes
you pay for it.
Detroit manager Jim Leyland
preaches patience with Jackson.
He says the 25-year-old player
from Denton, Texas, simply
needs time to develop.
Hes still finding himself up
here, Leyland said. It just takes
time.
Jackson has had to grow up
fast, though, playing regularly for
the Tigers for a third straight sea-
son since they acquired himfrom
the New York Yankees as part of
the Curtis Granderson trade.
Last winter, Jacksondecidedto
make an adjustment in the bat-
ters box. He and hitting coach
Lloyd McClendon agreed it was
time to lose the high-leg kick at
the plate.
We both wanted to make a
change, Jackson said. It is help-
ing me be more on time. When I
was doing the high-leg kick, I
wasnt consistent with my tim-
ing.
McClendon got to see the new
approach before the teams cara-
van last winter and during spring
training.
He believes the altered ap-
proach has had everything to
do with Jacksons stronger play.
Hes reaping the benefits of
buying into the changes and put-
ting in a lot of work, McClendon
said.
Tigers owner Mike Ilitch put a
lot of his money into his quest for
a WorldSeries title this year, sign-
ing Fielder to a $214 million,
nine-year contract to replace in-
jured designated hitter Victor
Martinez.
The early returns looked good.
Detroit won nine of its first 12
games, with Jackson hitting .333.
Then the Tigers went 17-28 in
part because Jackson strained ab-
dominal muscles May 16 and
wasnt healthy enoughto play un-
til June 9.

OMAHA, Neb. The curse
of the No. 1 seed continued at
the College World Series. Flor-
ida is out after a 5-4 loss to
Kent State in a game in which
the Gators couldnt seem to
catch a break.
Starting pitcher Hudson
Randall left after the first in-
ning because of heat-related
symptoms. The defense,
which committed three errors
in a loss to South Carolina on
Saturday, was charged with
two more against the Flashes.
And when it looked like the
Gators might capitalize on
CWS newcomer Kent States
shaky relief pitching in the
ninth, they couldnt get the call
they needed from the umpire.
Its an unfortunate way to
end the season, but I think
Kent State deserves a lot of
credit for the way they played
today, Florida coach Kevin
OSullivan said. They hung in
there, got a big strikeout at the
end, and our guys hung in
there right to the last out.
Florida (47-20), which lost
to South Carolina in last years
finals, came to Omaha as the
favorite. But the Gators went
0-2 and became the 13th
straight No. 1 seed to leave
without the championship.
The Gators gave up four un-
earned runs and another on a
wild pitch while falling behind
5-1. They loaded the bases
with one out in the ninth
against Kent State relievers
Michael Clark and Josh Pierce.
Pierce fought back from a
3-0 count to strike out Casey
Turgeon when Turgeon
couldnt check his swing and
got called out on an appeal to
the third-base umpire. Justin
Shafer flew out to right to end
the game.
Ive been able to make it out
here three times and all three
times Ive been just as disap-
pointed, said catcher Mike
Zunino, the Dick Howser Tro-
phy winner as the national
player of the year. You put in
so much hard work and get so
close to the guys. Its one of
those things where you dont
want it to end. Its going to take
a while to hit me.
The Gators came to Omaha
seventh in the nation in field-
ing then made five errors.

Torch bearer proposes
LONDON An Olympic torch
bearer has proposed to his girlfriend as
he carried the Olympics torch through
the streets of northern England.
David State proposed to his girl-
friend Christine Langham on bended
knee in the middle of his relay Monday
between the towns of Marske-by-the-
Sea and Loftus in north east England.
He handed the torch to a nearby securi-
ty official while he proposed.
She accepted, State then took the
torch back and continued his run.
Huge numbers of people have turned
up all over the country to see the
Olympic flame as it makes a 8,000-mile
(12,875-kilometer) trek around the
U.K.
The London Olympics take place
from July 27 to Aug. 12.
Facebook launches
Olympics page
LONDON Facebook on Monday
launched an official London Olympics
page for fans to connect with their
favorite athletes and teams, a move it
says can help make this summers
games the first truly social one.
Many athletes as well as the Lon-
don Games organizers already con-
nect with their fans on the online social
network, but Facebook says its new
Discover London 2012 page is a por-
tal that brings together the profile
pages of hundreds of athletes, national
teams, and official organizing bodies to
make them more accessible to its 900
million users.
Im sure that through Facebook and
all of our other social media channels
we will manage to bring a new dimen-
sion to the games for a new audience,
said Mark Adams, the International
Olympic Committees communications
director.
The site features pages dedicated to
specific Olympic sports and links to the
official pages of about 60 national
teams and 200 athletes, including
household names such as swimmer
Michael Phelps, basketball stars Le-
Bron James and Kobe Bryant, and
soccers David Beckham.
Facebook has promised to add more
in the run-up to the Olympics, which
are to be held from July 27 to Aug. 12.
But a spokesman admitted it would be
impossible to get all countries up on
the site. Team China, for example, is
missing because Facebook is banned
there.
The page is available in 22 languag-
es.
Greece, Serbia deny black
market ticket charges
ATHENS, Greece Greek and
Serbian Olympic officials deny they
were involved in selling tickets to the
London Games on the black market.
The IOC is investigating allegations
in Britains Sunday Times that officials
and ticket agents in several countries
were caught selling tickets for up to 10
times their face value.
The newspaper quoted Greek Olym-
pic Committee President Spyros Capra-
los as telling undercover reporters
posing as illegal ticket sellers that he
had pulled strings with London orga-
nizing chairman Sebastian Coe to ob-
tain extra tickets.
The Greek committee says the story
is untrue. It adds that Capralos com-
ments, which were filmed using a hid-
den camera, were misleading and
fragmentary.
The general secretary of Serbias
Olympic committee, Djordje Visacki,
says national bodies are not in charge
of the tickets.

Olympic relay Torchbearer David State
stops midway through his Torch Relay
leg between Marske-by-the-Sea and
Loftus, England to propose to his
girlfriend Christine Langham before
continuing the relay Monday.
LONDON They didnt have to
absolutely, positively get them there
overnight, but when the U.S. Eques-
trian Federation sent some of its
horses to London for the Olympics, it
was a special delivery.
The elite U.S. three-day eventing
equine squad landed in London on
Monday on a FedEx flight, having tak-
en the red eye from Newark, N.J.
Theyre not the first competitors to ar-
rive as the countdown to the games
clicks to less than 40 days away, but
they are among the most pampered.
They are all special, said Tim Dut-
ta, who owns the international horse
transport company that organized the
trip. We are working on everybodys
dream.
Bringing these elite athletes across
the Atlantic Ocean is a logistical feat
one small example of the many peo-
ple and efforts under way behind the
scenes to make the games go off with-
out a hitch. This is particularly true for
horses the only animals that take
part in the games, which start July 27
and end Aug. 12.
Lets just start by saying that these
10 are not just any old group of horses.
These animals have passports that
would be the envy of any human wish-
ing to travel the world. That said, they
get used to traveling, and most of the
time, they dont ask for much not
even an in-flight meal.
But grooms traveling with Twizzel,
Mighty Nice, Arthur and the other sev-
en horses that made the journey would
maybe give them a bit of hay.
Horses like these can move in their
boxes quite a bit, unlike human sar-
dines on regular flights. But in case
any of them gets bothered by the
noise, the grooms might stuff some
cotton in their ears, says Dr. Brendan
Furlong, the veterinarian for the Amer-
ican eventing team.
Carrots are always a good way to
calm any horse who gets nervous or
even a horse tranquilizer in the rare
case a prized animal gets really edgy.
The goal is to get them to London
stress-free.
As for the grooms, the vet, and the
other humans that cater to these pam-
pered prancers, well, they arent exact-
ly going first class. Furlong says hell
usually ask the pilots to keep the plane
kind of cool, so sometimes this crowd
finds itself wrapped in blankets to keep
warm. Theres no in-flight movie, so
jokes about whether they choose be-
tween Seabiscuit or War Horse
dont really cut it.
Its not a job for the faint of heart,
Furlong said. You need to have some-
one who is a very confident flier and
who can intervene quickly to calm a
stressed horse.
After all, 1,200 pounds (544 kilo-
grams) of stressed horse can be an
intimidating prospect.
Furlong says the crews are usually
very accommodating and always
want to come back even briefly to see
their precious cargo.
But even these horses didnt escape
Britains strict rules on quarantine.
Furlong arranged to have a farm near
Newark International Airport set up as
a special quarantine area to comply
with the U.K.s rules though ad-
mittedly the cherished 10 only needed
five hours of intense scrutiny to meet
the criteria. Nothing but the best for
this crowd. Really.
But do they know do the horses
know that its the Olympics? That its a
special event that happens only every
four years?
Dutta swears they do.
Theyre athletes, Dutta said of
horses that jump big big fences and
run oh so fast. They love what they
do.

Horses travel to London games in style
The only animals to take part in the
summer games arrived from U.S. on
a red eye from Newark, N.J.
By DANICA KIRKA
Associated Press
IRVINE, Calif. Janet Evans is close to finding out
whether her comeback will end at the London Games.
The 40-year-oldwinner of four Olympic goldmedals
already accomplished her main goal of qualifying for
the U.S. trials that begin next week in Omaha, Neb.
Nowshe wants toearna spot inthe final of the 800-me-
ter freestyle, an event she once dominated.
It wont be easy.
Evans must advance from the preliminary heats to
make the eight-woman final.
Then she has to finish first or
secondtopunchher ticket toa
fourth Olympics.
Its fair to call her a long
shot, her coach, Mark Schub-
ert, said.
Thats because Evans sim-
ply isnt as fast as she was in
her heyday in the late 1980s
andearly90s. Thatswhenshe
built her legacyasthequeenof
distance swimming, with
world records in the 400, 800
and 1,500 freestyles and back-
to-back Olympic and world ti-
tles in the 800 free, becoming
the first woman to do so.
The times Im doing, Im really proud of myself for
40andtobe withmy twokids andhave this be my job,
she said. Its pretty grueling being a distance swim-
mer.
Evans finished sixth in her final tuneup meet last
month before trials. Her time of 8 minutes, 49.36 sec-
onds in the 800 free was 15.71seconds behind the win-
ner of the 16-lap race. She was sixth in the event at an
April meet with a time of 8:46.89.
What shesdonereallywell thelast18monthsisdry-
landtrainingandstrengthtraining, andthat is goingto
help her speed a lot, Schubert said. Shes tired from
training right now, but I think in the end shes going to
swimreal well.
Evans has tailored her comeback to suit a lifestyle
that includes husband Billy Wilson and their two chil-
dren. Sherisesat 4:30a.m. totrainandreturnshomeby
8 a.m. to supervise older daughter Sydney and son
Jake. Sheputs inanother trainingsessionfrom3-6p.m.
before coming home to make dinner. On some days,
Evansistravelingtofulfill commitmentswithsponsors
and giving motivational speeches.
Who does that? said Schubert. Shes a maniac.
Thats just the best way I can describe it.
Evans schedule is a far cry
from her days as a college swim-
mer who went to workouts,
skippedclassesandwatchedtele-
vision.
I could do this forever if I
wasnt so physically tired, she
said during a recent meet in Ir-
vine, close to her Orange County
home.
I have the most energetic 5-
and 2-year-olds on the planet but
I want to be there for them so I
never have any downtime. Thats
the hardest part for me. A lot of
my girlfriends work and I think
they feel that way as well, but for
me, its physical, like getting my
kids in and out of car seats.
Theres challenges because Im tired. Billy is really
funnybecauseheslike, I never knewhowhardit was.
But Evans wouldnt have it any other way.
Evans returned to competitive swimming after a 15-
year retirement because it was somethingshe coulddo
just for herself.
Asamom, youput alot of thingsonthebackburner. I
worked my whole life and I stopped when I had chil-
dren. I miss working and for me work is swimming,
she said. For me just to stay at home, its a personal
thing. Some women can do it and some women cant.
Because Ive worked my whole life I need more.

boxing tournament in
London.
Three-time world
champion Mary Spen-
cer of Canada also re-
ceivedanat-large berth.
Underwood is a five-
timenational champion
who won the first U.S. Olympic boxing
teamtrials inFebruary. But she droppeda
one-pointdecisiontoNorwaysIngridEgn-
er in the preliminary round of the world
championships in China last month, fall-
ingjust short of Olympic qualificationand
jeopardizing her berth in Londons 12-
fighter lightweight field.
Underwood finally learned Monday
morningshehadbeenchosenforanOlym-
picspot byAIBA, theinternational govern-
ing body of amateur boxing. The news re-
ducedher to tears.
This past three weeks almost de-
stroyed me mentally, Underwood said.
All this pressure, everything since China,
has beensohard. ... I nowhave the chance
towritemyownstoryandmywinningthe
goldmedal isnowgoingtobetheheadline.
Thats what I owetoeverybodyandtomy-
self. I cant wait to get in the ring, I really
cant. It is going to be way different this
time.
Underwood started boxing nine years
ago after becoming fascinated by the
sports one-on-one competition. After
overcomingsexual abuseduringadifficult
childhood, she worked in construction
while training for national championships
andPan-AmGames trips.
Whenwomensboxingwasaddedtothe
Olympic programin 2009, she focused on
Londonandafter one misstep, she was
still rewarded.
Underwoods selection means the
American teamwill have a fighter in each
of the three weight classes when womens
boxing is contested for the first time as an
Olympicevent. Flyweight MarlenEsparza

after winning the trials withUnderwood.
We are thrilled for Queen, and believe
that she absolutely deserved to be in Lon-
don, saidAnthonyBartkowski, USABox-
ings executive director. She has been an
outstanding representative for the sport
since her first national championship win
in 2007, and the teamfeels complete now
that she will be joiningMarlenandClares-
sa inLondon.
The 36-fighter field should be complet-
ed soon as news of AIBAs decisions trick-
les out. Russia, Britain and the American
teamwill have fighters in all three weight

expensive, five-year investigation
that produced another blow to
the governments legal pursuit of
athletes accused of illicit drug
use.
Clemens, 49, was charged with
two counts of perjury, three
counts of making false state-
ments and one count of obstruct-
ing Congress when he testified at
a deposition and at a nationally
televised hearing in February
2008. The charges centered on
his repeated denials that he used
steroids and HGH during a 24-
year career with the Red Sox,
Yankees, Blue Jays and Astros
that produced a record seven Cy
Young Awards.
I hope those in the public who
made up their minds before there
was a trial will now back up and
entertain the possibility of what
he has always said using ste-
roids and HGH is cheating and it
was totally contrary to his entire
career, said Clemens lead law-
yer, Rusty Hardin.
After the jury foreman uttered
not guilty for the sixthandfinal
time, Clemens tearedup, andone
of his lawyers, Michael Attanasio,
put his arm on the former pitch-
ers back. Clemens bit his lower
tip, and rubbed a tear off his eye.
Mr. Clemens, youre free to
go, U.S. District Judge Reggie
Walton said.
Family members and lawyers
took turns hugging each other.
Clemens andhis four sons two
teenagers and two young adults
gathered in the middle of the
courtroom, arms interlocked,
like football players in a huddle,
and sobbing could be heard.
Then Clemens kissed his wife,
Debbie, who hadtestifiedfor him
in the case.
Clemens did not take ques-
tions after his brief statement
outside. The jury of eight women
and four men declined comment
through a court spokesman.
The U.S. Attorneys Office for
the District of Columbia issued a
statement thanking the jury and
stating respect for the judicial
process. But it will be hard for
prosecutors to put any kind of
positive spin on another disap-
pointing outcome for the Depart-
ment of Justice.
Aseven-year investigation into
home run king Barry Bonds
yielded a guilty verdict on only
one count of obstruction of jus-
tice in a San Francisco court last
year, with the jury deadlocked on
whether Bonds lied to a grand ju-
ry when he denied knowingly
taking performance-enhancing
drugs.

And if Oklahoma City needed
more proof, all the Thunder need
do is remember the Western Con-
ference finals when they lost the
first twogames toSanAntonio, be-
coming the 19th and 20th entries
on the Spurs incredible winning
streak. TheSpursdidnt winanoth-
er game the rest of the way.
We were down 2-0 against San
Antonio and everybody thought
the series was over, Thunder
coach Scott Brooks said. But I
know our guys, theyre very com-
petitive, theyre very resilient.
Theyvealwaysshowedthattypeof
effort every game, and weve al-
ways been a great bounce-back
team. I thought last night was a
great bounce-back last night. Its
unfortunate we didnt make a cou-
ple plays, and uncharacteristic, al-
so.
Uncharacteristic. That wouldal-
so be a fine word to describe how
James played in the finals last sea-
son.
He freely acknowledges that he
didntmakeenoughplaysagainst
the Mavericks a year ago, and the
numbers 17.8 points, 7.2 re-
boundsand6.8assistsper game
back that up, as do his well-chron-
icled fourth quarter struggles in
that series. So far in this years fi-
nals, James is averaging 30.3
points, 10.3rebounds and4assists,
andinthe final minutes of Miamis
twowins inthe series hes done his
part to slamthe door onthe Thun-
der.
Hes been aggressive. Hes an
aggressive player, Thunder guard
James Harden said. Hes been ag-
gressive all year, all postseason.
Hes tall, strong, and physical. Hes
a toughmatchup. It takes five guys
toreallylockdownontheir offense
because theyre a very offensive
team especially with LeBron and
(Dwyane) Wade.
James is shooting 46 percent in
the series, not even close to the 57
percent clip Kevin Durant is put-
ting up for Oklahoma City. But
heres maybe one piece of proof to
support that aggression notion
Harden was speaking of James
is 25for 29fromthe foul line inthe
threegames, whileDurantisjust14
for19 sofar inthe series.
James has done much of his
work near the rim in these finals.
But whileit wasnt hismost memo-
rableshot, perhaps thebiggest one
he hit all night in Miamis Game 3
victory was a 3-pointer late in the
third quarter, one of just five shots
that the Heat made from outside
the paint in that game. That shot
put Miami up entering the fourth,
andseemedtoextendtheThunder
defense just enough to allow
James, WadeandChrisBoshtocre-
ate more inthe lane late.
The biggest evolution of great
players is they always stay in con-
stant state of being uncomfort-
able, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra
said. They dont stay satisfied.
And LeBron every summer has
added something to his game. Ive
seenitwhenIvefollowedhimfrom
afar, and now that Ive gotten to
know him hes added two, three,
four different elements now to his
game, the well-documentedone of
the post-up game, which we need-
ed. But he continues to try to im-
prove and stay uncomfortable. I
thinkthats a signof greatness.
Another sign of greatness?
Rings.
James firstisjusttwowinsaway,
again. And yes, the memories of
what went wrongin2011still drive
Miami now.
Experience dont guarantee
you anything, Wade said. It just
letsyouknowIvebeenherebefore.
That doesnt mean its going to be
successful for you. So for us weve
gottocontinue... tomakethegame
that were in, the moment that
were in the biggest moment and
thebiggest gameandnot lookback
andnotlookforwardtoomuch. Ob-
viouslytheteamthat was herethat
lost the championship last year,
that burning sensation is going to
be inside of us until we change
that.
FINALS
SAN FRANCISCO In a lit-
tle more than six months, they
shared the stage in a playoff, be-
came fast friends through their
faith and then partners in the
Presidents Cup.
Webb Simpson and Bubba
Watson are linked again in ways
they never imagined.
Major champions.
Simpson joined the most im-
portant fraternity in golf Sun-
day at The Olympic Club with a
flourish of birdies and a steady
diet of pars at the end. The last
one came from a delicate chip
out of a hole in the rough to 3
feet that woundupbeingthe de-
cisive stroke in the U.S. Open.
Ona leaderboardloadedwith
possibilities, his name did not
stand out. Simpson was playing
in only his fifth major, and his
second U.S. Open. He had mis-
sed the cut in his last two tour-
naments. And he was six shots
out of the lead when he walked
off the fifth green with his sec-
ond bogey of the day.
Some four hours later, Simp-
son sat in the clubhouse with
his pregnant wife, Dowd. They
tried to take their mind off the
finish by watching videos of
their young son, James, who
stayed behind in North Caroli-
na. She squeezed tight on his
handas theywatchedJimFuryk
hit into the bunker on the 18th
to eliminate his chances, and
then Graeme McDowell miss a
25-foot birdie putt that would
have forced a playoff.
If I was honest withyou, I be-
lieved in myself (that)I could
win a major, but maybe not so
soon, Simpsonsaid. AndI just
gained all the respect for the
guys who have won multiple
majors because its so hard to
do. The level of pressure is so
much greater than a regular
event.
I probably prayed more the
last three holes than I ever did
in my life, said Simpson, a reli-
gion major at Wake Forest.
It was Simpson who called
over to Watson, their caddies
andtheir wives to huddle under
anumbrellaonthegreenat Roy-
al Melbourne for a quick prayer
after they won a match that set
the tone in the Presidents Cup.
They are nothing alike. Wat-
son manufactured a swing on a
public course in the Florida
Panhandle and doesnt have a
formal teacher. Simpson grew
up at a country club and even
played Augusta National when
he was a teenager. Watson
speaks his mind. Simpson is
more reserved.
Watson and Simpson traded
text messages the morning of
the final round last year in New
Orleans. Watson wound up
beating himin a playoff, but the
relationship took root. When it
became clear they would qual-
ify for the Presidents Cup, they
askedU.S. captainFredCouples
if they could be partners. They
won three of their matches.
Couples was wandering
around Olympic and watched it
unfold.
Simpson had a 68-68 week-
end he was the only player in
the last nine groups who broke
par in the foggy final round
and finished at 1-over 281 for a
one-shot win over McDowell
and Michael Thompson, who
had a 67 that was almost good
enough to return Monday for a
playoff.
He went toNo. 5inthe world.
He went to No. 3 in the Ryder
Cup standings.
And he extended a modest
streak that indicates a quiet re-
turn of American golf. The
Americans now have won the
last three majors dating to Kee-
gan Bradleys playoff win at the
PGA Championship in August.
It might not sound like much,
but it had been just over five
years since Americans won
three straight majors (two of
those by Tiger Woods), and
more than eight years since
three different Americans put
together a streak that long.
The UnitedStates startedthe
year with only six players
among the top 15. Now there
are nine.
And these majors are coming
from unlikely sources.
Bradley became only the sec-
ondplayer innearly100 years to
win on his first try at a major.
Watson always had the talent,
though his composure was al-
ways in question until he made
four straight birdies onthe back
nine at Augusta National. He
won his playoff by hooking a
wedge some 40 yards out of the
trees and onto the green to win
with a par.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. The Scran-
ton/Wilkes-Barre offense spot-
ted starting pitcher John Maine
anearly two-runleadonMonday.
But making his first start for
the Yankees, the former New
York Met gave up the lead allow-
ing four runs and six hits in 2 2/3
innings. Another former Met,
Nelson Figueroa allowed five
more runs to the Bats as Louis-
ville rolled to a 9-2 win at Louis-
ville Slugger Field.
The Yankees opened a 2-0 lead
after a JackCust RBI-single inthe
top of the first and a Colin Curtis
solo shot to lead off the second.
Then came a bad bottomof the
third for SWB leading to four un-
earned runs against Maine (1-1),
who threw 66 pitches, 36 for
strikes.
The first batter of the inning,
Joey Gathright, reachedsafely on
an error by Yankee first baseman
Russell Branyan. He scored on a
double by Paul Janish for Louis-
villes first run.
After Louisville tied the score
on a sacrifice fly, Bill Rinehart
lacedarun-scoringsingleandCo-
dy Puckett doubled home a run
for a 4-2 lead.
Figueroa replacedMaine to get
the third out of
the inning. But
he got in trouble
in the next
frame.
Figueroa al-
lowed six hits
and five runs in
the bottom of
the fourth high-
lighted by RBI-
doubles by Da-
niel Dorn and
Puckett as the
Bats opened up
a 9-2 advantage.
The Yankees
were outhit 16-8 with Ramiro Pe-
na being the only multiple hitter
for SWB going 2-for-4.

Chupkas bases-loaded
hit secures the victory
The Times Leader Staff
The West sent 11batters tothe
plate in the first inning, then had
four hits in the second inning to
extend its lead to 8-0. North-
wests Rachel Linso and Maran-
da Koehn each drove in a run in
the second with base hits.
Some added insurance came
in the fifth inning, when the
West tacked on three runs. Lake-
Lehmans Sarah Perry and Nar-
done walked, followed by a hit
by Inman. With the bases load-
ed, Jamie Hampsey singled to
right to plate two runs. Lake-
Lehmans Kate Ashton followed with another hit
to right to drive in the Wests 11th run.
The East had just one hit in the first seven in-
nings an infield single by Meyers Amy Kowalc-
zyk in the fourth inning. Nanticokes Brooke
Chapin scored on a ground out by Hazleton Ar-
eas Carly Rossi two batters later to put the East
on the board, but it still trailed 8-1.
Nanticokes Katie Kowalski, the East MVP,
doubled in the eighth inning, and the East added
a run in the ninth when Rossi scored on a single
to right by Hanover Areas Ka-
tie Pelak. Kowalczyk opened
the ninth with her second sin-
gle of the night, but was erased
on a fielders choice.
That doesnt matter. Its all
just for fun, Kowalski said.
For us (Nanticoke players),
we know a lot of girls from
Northwest because years ago
we played together in Little
League. And we never get to
see them during the season
now.
East coaches Gary Williams
of Nanticoke and Tami Tho-
mas of Hanover also put in a
defense which featured seven
of the Trojanettes on the field
for an inning.
It was neat, Kowalski said. Coachwantedus
to play together one last time. Its going to be sad
not having all of us on the same team anymore.
Weve played with some girls for years and years
and years. We know what everyone does and we
all have our own handshakes and stuff.
Linsowas creditedwiththewin, pitchingthree
hitless innings for the West. She struck out five.
Tunkhannocks two stellar pitchers Hampsey
and Inman pitched three innings each, fanning
four and allowing one run.

NEWYORKThe NFLwent public
Monday with some of its evidence
against the four players suspended for
their roles in the New Orleans Saints
bounty program. Among the things the
league revealed: a prize of $35,000 for
knocking Brett Favre out of the NFC
championship game in January 2010.
The league alsodisplayeda computer
slide it obtained fromthe Saints, dating
frombefore a playoff game against Seat-
tlethefollowingseason, showingphotos
of threeSeahawks withNowits timeto
doour job. Collect bounty$$$!. Noapol-
ogies. Lets go hunting printed on it.
The evidence included hand-written
notes, documents fromthe Saints com-
puter systemand witness testimony.
The initial complaint that sparkedthe
investigation back in 2010 came from
then-Minnesota coach Brad Childress,
who heard of a bounty on Favre in the
championship game froma player.
NFLleadcounsel Jeff Pashshowedre-
porters the material at the end of a day
when the suspended players Will
Smith, Anthony Hargrove, Scott Fujita
and Jonathan Vilma each attended
appeals hearings with Commissioner
Roger Goodell at NFL headquarters in
Manhattan. The players and their union
objectedtotheprocess, sayingit was un-
fair.
The league thenshowedreporters co-
pies of documents and a video from its
investigation the same presentation
the NFL earlier made to the players.
Onedocument showedlinebacker Vil-
ma offering two five-stacks, or
$10,000, to knock out Favre in the title
game, which the Saints won, leading to
their Super Bowl victory over Indiana-
polis in February 2010. The NFL said
several people, including Saints coach-
es, confirmed Vilmas offer.
Vilma left his session after about an
hour Mondaymorning. Whenthat hear-
ing was adjourned until early afternoon,
both Vilma and attorney Peter Ginsberg
vowed he would not return.
He didnt.
Ginsberg called the hearing a sham
and said Goodell failed to present the
evidenceonwhichhebasedhis decision
to impose Vilmas penalty.
Roger Goodell has taken three
months to tear down what I built over
eight years. Its tough to swallow. I have
been linked to a bounty and it simply is
not true, said Vilma, who also is suing
the commissioner for defamation. I
dont know how I can get a fair process
whenheisthejudge, juryandexecution-
er. Youre assuming it will be fair, but its
not.
Smith, suspended for four games;
Hargrove, now with Green Bay and
docked eight games; and Fujita, now
with Cleveland and suspended three
games, all made the afternoon session.
Fujita said nothing was accomplished.
The NFLs investigation has been
highlighted by sensationalized head-
lines and unsubstan-
tiated leaks to the
media. I have yet to
see anything that im-
plicates me ... not in
the last three months
and not today, Fujita
said. The NFL has
beencareless andirre-
sponsible, and at some time will have to
provide answers.
Pash believes plenty of answers were
providedto the players before Mondays
hearing and during it. He said Goodell
will hold the record open until at least
the end of Friday for the players to re-
spond to the evidence.
We offered the attorneys and players
opportunities to comment and they de-
clined to do so, Pash said.
Pash added that Ginsberg referred to
anindependent investigationconducted
by the NFLPlayers Association and we
invited them to share it, but they did
not.
What theNFLsharedMondayalsoin-
cluded former Saints defensive coordi-
natorGreggWilliams, whorantheboun-
ty program, admitting to investigators
herolledthedicewithplayer safetyand
someone could have been maimed.
Williams has been suspended indefi-
nitely by Goodell, while Saints head
coachSeanPaytonis goneuntil after the
Super Bowl. Assistant coach Joe Vitt,
the interim replacement for Payton, be-
gins a six-game suspension when the
regular season starts. Saints general
manager Mickey Loomis is suspended
for eight games once the season begins.
The $35,000 offered to sideline Favre
included $10,000 pledges from Vilma,
former Saints defensive lineman Char-
les Grant, and Mike Ornstein, an out-
sider and convicted felon the NFL says
wasinvolvedinthebountyprogram. Vitt
pledged the other $5,000.
A video from that game shows Vitt
telling defensive players on the sideline
that Favre was out with a broken leg fol-
lowing a vicious hit. Hargrove is shown
turningtoteammateBobbyMcCrayand
saying, Hey, Bobby, give me the mon-
ey.
Hargrove was flagged and subse-
quently fined$5,000 for a flagrant hit on
Favre, who returned to the game.
Several other players names appear
inthe evidence, including safety Roman
Harper and linebacker Scott Shanle.
Neither was punished by Goodell be-
causethoseplayers werenot linkedwith
any intent-to-injure hits.
Pash explained why the majority of
the evidence from the NFLs investiga-
tion has not been revealed.
It takes a lot of courage for people to
speakup, hesaid. If peoplewant todis-
close something... whoever it is play-
er, coach, former employee, staff mem-
ber asks for protection, some sort of
confidentiality, we ought to give it to
them.
Otherwise, peoplewill not bewilling
to come forward.

SAN DIEGO LaDainian Tomlinson
was in the midst of saying goodbye to the
NFL when his young son, Daylen, wan-
dered across the dais and tugged on his
pant leg, wanting a little attention.
Tomlinsonreacheddownandliftedhim
up, holding himas carefully as he used to
carry the football.
Joined by his family and several former
teammates, Tomlinsonendedhis brilliant
11-year NFLcareer the same way he start-
edit withthe SanDiego Chargers.
Tomlinson signed a one-day contract
withtheChargersonMondayandthenan-
nouncedhis retirement.
It wasnt because I didnt want to play
anymore. It was simply time to move on,
Tomlinsonsaid.
Tomlinsonrushedfor13,684yards, fifth
all-time, and scored 162 touchdowns,
third-most ever. His 145 rushing touch-
downs aresecond-most inhistory. Healso
passedfor seventouchdowns.
Just as importantly, hehelpedtheChar-
gers dig out from one of their worst
stretches to become a force in the AFC
West. Heplayedhisfirst nineseasonswith
San Diego and the last two years with the
NewYork Jets.
Tomlinson, who turns 33 on Saturday,
saidhe knewat the endof last seasonthat
hed probably retire. He said he was still
physically capable of playing but men-
tioned the mental toll it takes to play at a
highlevel.
Tomlinson didnt shed any tears, as he
did two years ago after being released by
the Chargers.
L.T. recalled the news conference in
2006 whenformer teammate Junior Seau
announcedhis first retirement.
He said, Im graduating today. Ive
beenplayingfootball 20-someyearsandso
at some point it almost seems like school
every year where you sacrifice so much
and there is so much you put on the line,
mentally and physically, with your body,
everything, Tomlinson said. So today, I
takethewordsof JuniorSeau: Ifeel likeIm
graduating. I reallydo, becauseIvegotmy
life ahead of me, Im healthy, Im happy
witha great familyandImexcitedtonow
be a fanandwatchyouguys play.
Seau, whocommittedsuicideonMay2,
cameout of retirement afewtimes toplay
for the NewEnglandPatriots.
Tomlinsonsaidthis is it for him.
Tomlinson said he has special memo-
rieseventhoughtheChargersnevergot to
theSuperBowl duringhistimewiththem.
His most memorablemoment withSan
Diego came on Dec. 10, 2006, when he
swept into the end zone late in a game
against the Denver Broncos for his third
touchdown of the afternoon to break
Shaun Alexanders year-old record of 28
touchdowns.
His linemen hoisted him onto their
shouldersandcarriedhimtowardtheside-
line, withTomlinsonholdingtheball high
inhis right handandwavinghis left index
finger, while the fans chanted L.T.! L.T.!
andMVP! MVP!
Tomlinson was voted NFL MVP that
season, when he set league single-season
records with31touchdowns, including28
rushing, and186 points.

LaDainian Tomlinson on retiring from NFL
PHILADELPHIA Now that hes
signed and ready to go, Fletcher Cox
hopes to play an important role for the
Philadelphia Eagles.
The rookie first-round pick agreed to
a four-year contract on Monday. Hes ea-
ger to compete for a starting spot on
Philadelphias defensive line when
training camp opens next month.
Thats basically what football is all
about, competing, and Imalways up for
competition, Cox said in a conference
call.
Cox was the last of Philadelphias
nine draft picks to sign. The Eagles trad-
ed up three spots to select the defensive
tackle from Mississippi State at No. 12
overall.
My mindset is going in and just do-
ing what Im coached to do, what (de-
fensive line) coach (Jim) Washburn
wants me to do, and thats play hard and
be relentless, Cox said.
Cox made the All-SECfirst teamafter
finishing with 56 tackles and five sacks
last year. He played three seasons at
Mississippi State and had 114 tackles.
He also blocked five kicks.
Cox attended all of the teams orga-
nized team activities and rookie camp.
He missed the first two days of the man-
datory minicamp last week because his
cousin and close friend was killed in a
car accident.
Dealing with the death in my family
was a really bad time for me, and I kind
of struggled a little bit, Cox said. To
get the contract signed is just a blessing.
Melvin is in a better place right nowand
hell be watching down on me on Sun-
days and every day, even during prac-
tice, hell be looking down on me. He
wouldve wanted nothing but the best.
Cox never expected his contract ne-
gotiations to drag on. He certainly
didnt want to hold out like Philadel-
phias first-round pick last year, offen-
sive lineman Danny Watkins.
You dont want to miss a few days of
training camp because if you miss three
days, then youre three days behind and
somebody else is ahead of you, he said.
With the new CBA, it makes a lot of
stuff easy and helps us get this out the
way. I know my agent did a great job of
negotiating. I think he did a good job in
getting it out of the way so I can play
football.

Ohio State is paying football coach Ur-
ban Meyer a minimum of $4 million an-
nually more money than his predeces-
sor and detailing in the contract what
hes requiredto do if anNCAArules viola-
tionoccurs under his watch.
The university completed details of
Meyers contract and released it on Mon-
day. The schools board of trustees is ex-
pectedtoapprove it later inthe week.
The deal runs through the 2017 season
and keeps the Buckeyes football coach
among the top five nationally in compen-
sation. Meyer was hiredlast November to
rebuildtheprogram, whichgot aone-year
bowl banfor NCAArules violations under
former coachJimTressel.
Meyers contract guarantees him at
least $4 millionannually. One maindiffer-
ence fromTressels deal: Meyers contract
goes into greater detail about what he
must doif he becomes aware there is a po-
tential violationof NCAArules.
Given the circumstances we had, we
felt it was important to put provisions in
theretomakesuretherightsafeguardsare
inplace onbothsides, saidathletic direc-
tor Gene Smith in a phone interview.
Thatsbeenstrengthenedandbeefedup.
Tressel wasforcedout becausehedidnt
tell anyone that he received a tip about
some players violating NCAA rules. The
NCAAgave OhioState a bowl banfor this
seasonas aresult of violations that includ-
edeight playerstaking$14,000incashand
tattoos in exchange for jerseys, rings and
other memorabilia.
Meyers contract provides more specif-
ics on howhe is expected to handle a pos-
sible violation.

Table game win spotty
Casino revenue at Pennsylvania
casinos table games rose 7.4 percent in
May, but average winnings per table
fell 7 percent as one new casino opened
and others added tables.
Figures released by the state Gaming
Control Board showed $55.2 million in
revenue in May 2012, up from $51.4
million a year earlier. The number of
tables in operation rose to 1,031 from
891, reducing the average per table to
$53,560 from $57,689.
Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs
reported revenue of $3.5 million, up
from $3.3 million. The casino operated
84 tables each year.
Half of the 10 casinos open for a year
showed increased table game revenue.
Valley Forge Casino Resort, with 50
tables, added $2.2 million to the 2012
total but was not open in May 2011.
Home builders upbeat
The National Association of Home
Builders/Wells Fargo builder senti-
ment index rose in June to 29, the
highest reading since May 2007. It
increased from a reading of 28 last
month, which was revised down one
point from its initial figure.
In June, builders reported seeing the
best sales level since April 2007, ac-
cording to a separate measure in the
survey. Their outlook for sales in the
next six months, however, hasnt
changed from May.
Toyota fire probe grows
The government has expanded an
investigation into fires that can start in
the doors of several Toyota models,
adding 600,000 Camrys and other
vehicles to the probe.
The investigation now includes 1.4
million cars and SUVs from the 2007 to
2009 model years. When the probe
began in February, it involved more
than 800,000 Camrys and RAV4 SUVs
from the 2007 model year.
Certain Camrys from the 2008 and
2009 model years, as well as some 2007
to 2009 Yaris subcompacts and all 2008
Highlander Hybrid SUVs, have been
added to the investigation.
Breakfast meet postponed
The Greater Hazleton Chamber of
Commerce Red Carpet Breakfast
scheduled for Thursday at Edgewood
in the Pines in Drums has been post-
poned due to the death of featured
speaker state Sen. John Gordners
father-in-law.
A new date will be announced soon.

THERES A SLICK
new accessory in the
works for smart-
phones: an umbrella.
But this isnt just
any umbrella yes, it
will keep you dry, but
it also will charge your phone and
boost your signal.
The unlikely accessory has received
an equally improbable moniker the
Booster Brolly.
Currently in testing in the United
Kingdom, the Brolly was developed by
University College London for Vo-
daphone, the largest mobile communi-
cations company in the world, which
also owns a substantial portion of
Verizon Wireless.
The umbrella features an array of
solar panels that unfurl upon opening.
They send current to a battery stored
in the umbrella handle, where smart-
phones and other USB-equipped mo-
bile devices can be plugged in.
The umbrella also features a high-
gain antenna with substantially more
surface area than a conventional cell-
phone antenna, which it then boosts
giving both the owner of the umbrella
and anyone within a few feet of them
an improved signal. According to
reports, its not significantly heavier
than a typical umbrella.
The Booster Brolly isnt alone
there are jackets with built-in MP3
players, shoes with pedometers and
embedded GPS receivers, T-shirts
with LED displays, watches powered
sometimes these things need a bit
more time in the oven before theyre
released to the general public. There
are now clothes that you cant ever
wash because they contain embedded
electronics. In my opinion, a Blue-
tooth earpiece should be able to sur-
vive at least a cycle or two in the
washer.
The Booster Brolly is actually an
unusually practical idea, but it makes
me wonder if well see a return of the
Victorian tradition of people strolling
around twirling parasols with a
21st-century twist; theyre waiting for
their iPhone to charge so they can ask
Siri for directions.

the threshold of
the official start
of summer and
in a timely man-

being set for
having the

this morning will
slowly give way
to some hazy
sunshine later
today along with
a noticeable rise
in the humidity.

Just this year the American Acad-
emy of Pediatrics reaffirmed its
stance that breastfeeding is a
natural and beneficial source of
nutrition and provides the
healthiest start for infants. And
the Academy of Nutrition and
Dietetics recently confirmed
that exclusive breastfeeding
provides optimal nutrition and
health protection for the first 6
months of life and breastfeed-
ing with complementary foods
from 6 months until at least 12
months of age is the ideal feed-
ing pattern for infants.
Why is moms milk so special?
Frances gets the benefit of milk
that is uniquely tailored to meet
her nutritional needs. It is al-
ways ready at just the right
temperature when she is hun-
gry. And it stays safe and sterile
in convenient containers her
mom can take anywhere.
And nursing helps promote the
proper alignment of her jaw and
teeth as she grows, say child
development experts.
As Frances grows and develops,
the composition of her moms
milk will change to meet her
needs. And breast milk contains
substances that help protect
her from ear infections, tummy
upsets and other childhood
maladies. Research also shows
that breastfed babies are less
likely to be overweight or to
have high blood pressure when
they grow up.
Mommies benefit from breast-
feeding as well. Her mom is
burning about 500 additional
calories each day to produce
milk for her infant. That can
help her return to her pre-
pregnancy weight. And good
evidence now shows that moms
who breastfeed their offspring
lower their risk for certain
diseases such as breast cancer
and type 2 diabetes.

Q: Can intense itching
be a side effect for
someone with dia-
betes whose blood
sugars are poorly
controlled?
Anonymous,
Camden, N.J.
A: Poorly controlled diabetes is one
possible cause for unexplained itching.
Exactly how diabetes causes itching
isnt certain, but suggested causes
include diabetic nerve root injury,
metabolic abnormalities from widely
fluctuating blood sugars and dry skin.
If this is the cause, it should improve
with better efforts to lower the blood
sugars.
That said, there are many other
causes for severe itching. Dry skin from
eczema is a common cause thats fairly
easy to treat with moisturizers and
steroid cream/ointment. Cholestatic
liver disease where there are high
blood levels of bilirubin is another
cause for severe itching. A normal set
of liver enzyme tests will rule this out.
Either a very slow or a very fast thyroid
can cause itching, so be sure to check
thyroid function. Severe chronic kidney
failure can also cause itching from the
buildup of toxins. High levels of circu-
lating blood histamines from a tumor
can cause itching, so be sure to check a
blood histamine level. Folks who have
a disorder called polycythemia vera
may experience itching due to high
circulating levels of histamine-produc-
ing mast cells. Certain cancers like
carcinoid syndrome or Hodgkins/Non-
Hodgkins lymphoma can cause ex-
treme itching, so these need to be
considered. Parasitic infections are
another possible cause of unexplained
itching, especially if theres been recent
travel to endemic areas. Severe emo-
tional stress/anxiety is one more in-
teresting cause for unexplained itching.
Q: My blood pressure averages 120/60.
Im concerned about the bottom read-
ing of 60 being too low. I seem to be
rather drained, and wonder if its be-
cause my pressure is too low. Is there
any food or vitamin I can take to raise
it?
A.F., Bronx, N.Y.
A: Theres absolutely nothing wrong
with your blood pressure. In fact, 120/
80 is considered to be the equivalent of
20-20 vision; your blood pressure is
analogous to having even better vision
than normal. What do those numbers
mean? The first, higher number (sys-
tolic) is the pressure of the blood
against the artery walls when the heart
contracts (e.g., 120). Its the maximum
pressure generated when the heart
contracts, sending blood out to the
body. The second, lower number (dias-
tolic) is the pressure against the artery
walls when the heart relaxes between
beats (e.g., 80). Its the minimum blood
pressure we see. Organs depend upon
that maximum pressure with every
heartbeat for bloods nutrients and
oxygen. As long as the upper (systolic)
pressure is sufficient, the lower pres-
sure isnt really too important.

der than age 50, the study claims
that toiling away at home burned
1,000 calories a day. Dr. Charles
Billington, associate director of
the Minnesota Obesity Center at
the University of Minnesota,
finds the studys worth dubious,
while not disputing that its claim
holds true in the United States as
well.
Since caloric measurements
werent takenat that time, the fig-
ure has to be an estimate, he
said. But energy expenditure
outside the home has declined
over the last 30 years. ... Calories
eaten have gone up, and calories
burned have gone down.
Nothing new there.
The study also found that a
womans average caloric intake
then was 1,818, compared to to-
days 2,178. Did people really eat
better in the 50s when butter
was its own basic food group
than we do today?
I dont know if you could say
people ate better then, they just
ate fewer calories, Billington
said. There was great reliance
on fats and starch.

Alzheimers resources
available for families
Luzerne County families
now have access to free re-
sources included in a new
program designed to help them
cope with the effects of Alz-
heimers disease and other
dementias.
Developed by the Home
Instead Senior Care network,
in conjunction with a team of
Alzheimers experts in North
America, the Alzheimers
CARE Program focuses on the
care and dignity of individuals
rather than the symptoms,
diagnosis, treatments and
possible cures for the disease.
Included in the Alzheimers
CARE program are free e-
learning modules for families
and others who are caring for a
loved one with Alzheimers
disease. Available at Help-
ForAlzheimersFamilies.com,
the online training will teach
participants how to use the
CARE approach to manage
behaviors, encourage engage-
ment and care for themselves
while caring for their loved
one.
Also available is a free book-
let, Helping Families Cope,
which includes information
about the CARE approach and
additional information to help
families who might be strug-
gling with Alzheimers disease
or other dementias.
For more information about
the e-learning, training or to
receive a free copy of the book-
let, contact your local Home
Instead Senior Care office at
714-4260 or visit HelpforAlz-
heimersFamilies.com.

BLOOD DRIVES
years, the American Heart Asso-
ciation has simplified the proce-
dure to two steps. When you see
an adult suddenly collapse who
is not breathing normally:
1. Call 9-1-1
2. Push hard and fast in the
center of the chest at the rate of
100 pumps per minute (like the
beat of the Bee Gees Stayin
Alive song)
Begin CPR as soon as possi-
ble after the sudden cardiac ar-
rest because the risk of perma-
nent damage to the victim is
greater after four minutes. Con-
tinue CPR until an automated
external defibrillator (AED) or
emergency worker arrives.
Heart disease is the No. 1 kill-
er of Americans. And more than
1,000 out-of-hospital cardiac ar-
rests occur every day in the U.S.,
says Dr. Sreenivas Gudimetla,
president of the board of direc-
tors for the Tarrant County
American Heart Association.
More than 80 percent of those
cardiac arrests happen at home,
so the most likely person you
will give CPR to is someone you
love, says Gudimetla, who is al-
so a cardiologist at Texas
Health Harris Methodist Fort
Worth Hospital.
Most people worry that they
might do something wrong
helping an adult who has a sud-
den cardiac arrest, so only 32
percent of victims get CPR from
a bystander, which leads to un-
necessary deaths. Learning
Hands-Only CPR gives people
the confidence to act quickly to
help a loved one or a stranger in
an emergency and increase their
survival rates, the AHA says.
If more people learn CPR, the
chance that someone can help
an adult who suddenly collaps-
es increases. Kathryn Bashaw,
communications director for
the American Heart Association
in Tarrant County, Texas, says
the AHA is asking Texas legisla-
tors to consider CPR training as
a high school graduation re-
quirement so our next genera-
tion will be prepared to save
even more lives.
Only 5.2 percent of people
who have a cardiac arrest out-
side of a hospital survive, says
the AHA. That number increas-
es to 8 percent when mouth-to-
mouth CPRis given. But when a
person administers Hands-Only
CPR, the victims chance of sur-
vival doubles, Gudimetla says.
Hands-Only CPR with just
chest compressions is as effec-
tive as CPRwith breaths in help-
ing adult victims of cardiac ar-
rest, says the American Heart
Association. And the two-step
method is easier to remember
than the traditional method of
chest compressions combined
with breathing.
People hesitant to give
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation
to strangers are more likely to
administer just chest compres-
sions. Gudimetla says our
breaths contain carbon dioxide
when we exhale, which is not as
beneficial to the victim as chest
compressions. When an adult in
sudden cardiac arrest collapses,
his lungs and blood still contain
oxygen. Chest compressions
help to pump this oxygenated
blood to the brain and the heart.
So the best thing a bystander
can do for a cardiac arrest vic-
tim is to give high-quality chest
compressions with minimal in-
terruptions until medical ser-
vices personnel arrive.
If you are one of the 70 per-
cent of Americans who dont
know CPR, here are ways to
learn:
Watch a video: See a one-min-
ute video on how to perform
Hands-Only CPRat handsonlyc-
pr.org. Studies showthat people
who watch this video are more
willing to administer CPR dur-
ing an emergency. Go to
www.heart.org/cpr, then
choose Community Training/
National CPR and AED Aware-
ness Week to see Hands-Only
CPR in action to the Bee Gees
Stayin Alive.
Order a CPR kit: The CPR
Anytime Kit uses the American
Heart Associations practice
while watching technique. Us-
ers watch an instructional DVD
while practicing CPR on a man-
nequin. This 22-minute training
kit can be used by individuals in
their homes and shared with
family and friends. Schools,
community groups and work-
places can complete the train-
ing in large groups. Order the
kit at cpranytime.org.

sonlycpr.org to download the

Take a class: Find an instruc-
tor-led class by date or location

I had no feeling in my feet and did not feel comfortable walking up
steps and maintaining my balance. My feet would swell and hurt so
bad that even a blanket on them would be painful. It limited me
because I couldnt walk even in my bare feet. Now I can walk in my
bare feet and I love it.
I now can walk up and down steps easily and dont have the
severe pain that I had. I recommend Neuropathy Center

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: We have
a young neighbor
couple in our rural
area. They drop in
to visit us about five
evenings a week.
Theyre nice people
and good neighbors,
so we dont want to offend them, but
what would be a diplomatic way to
tell them we dont want company that
often?
The husband gets home from work
at 4:30 p.m. every day and his wife al-
ways has dinner on the table when he
walks in the door. My husband is 62.
He works hard 10 to 12 hours a day
and returns home anywhere between
5 and 7 p.m. So its not possible for
me to have dinner ready and waiting.
Our idea of a pleasant evening is eat-
ing dinner, watching an hour or two
of TV, and going to bed about 9 p.m.
My husband has to drive by these
neighbors house on his way home, so
they know when he gets here and
they usually arrive shortly thereafter.
I feel very uncomfortable cooking
a meal and eating with non-eating
company in my kitchen, so I always
put dinner preparation aside and visit
with them for an hour or two. Its not
unusual for us to wind up having din-
ner at 9 p.m.
We have had it. How can we regain
our privacy but remain friends?
Missing Dinner in Missouri
Dear Missing Dinner: You and
your husband have been such good
neighbors that you have made your-
selves prisoners in your own home.
The next time the couple arrives at
your door at dinnertime, in a pleas-
ant tone, say, John just got home
from work and hes tired and hungry.
Please excuse us while we have din-
ner. We plan to retire early. And in the
future, dont just drop by please
wait until we call you.
Dear Abby: My husband, Ted, and
I have been married for four years
and have a 3-year-old son. Before we
were married we talked about having
at least two children.
After our son was born, Ted went
through what he believes was post-
partum depression. He wasnt pre-
pared for the reality of having a baby,
and it was hard on him. To his credit,
he got through it and has been a fan-
tastic father to our son.
He now says he doesnt want any
more children. He just doesnt want
to go through it again.
Abby, I cant imagine not having
one more child. I know I cant force
him to change his mind, but Im
afraid I will resent him for denying
me something I want so badly, espe-
cially since we had agreed ahead of
time.
I feel there is no compromising on
this. Either way, one of us is going to
be miserable. I cry all the time and
dont know how to move on. Can you
help?
Dreaming of Two in Tacoma,
Wash.
Dear Dreaming Of Two: I wish I
could, but not knowing the cause
of your husbands anxiety and aver-
sion to having another child, Im at
a disadvantage. You should both
talk this out with a licensed mar-
riage and family therapist, and I
hope youll do it before you become
fur-ther depressed because your
current mental state may adversely
affect your ability to parent the child
you have.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Daily dinner-time visits from neighbors are taking a toll on couple
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). Success
breeds success. So set a small
goal or two for yourself, and
then celebrate the achievement
of it in a big way. Youll do more
because you think of yourself as
the success you really are.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Keeping the community clean is
everyones responsibility. Today
you take that responsibility as
seriously as any youre paid
to do.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Talk
about whats bothering you with
those who know you best. The
insight of a close friend will illu-
minate the present and help you
come to a better understanding
about the past.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Everything about writing a let-
ter, from the paper you choose
to the wording you include, is a
reflection of the person sending
the letter. Thats what makes
well-conceived notes such a trea-
sure to exchange.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Exploring
an interest in depth may bring
great pleasure to you, though
its not something a witness will
enjoy. Pursue your interest solo,
as another person will only grow
tired of focusing on one topic.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your job
is less about you and more about
them today. And though its dif-
ficult to get zero recognition for
doing your thing, the good you
bring others just may be com-
pensation enough.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). More
than any other factor, pacing will
determine the success or failure
of an action. A controlled speed
is optimum.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Keep
to the topics and activities that
contribute to your health. Make
a plan, and stick to it as best you
can. Knowing what you want to
do and staying on purpose will
be your success key.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Relieve the pressure! Dont let
angry feelings well up in your
body. Find a safe environment to
blow out your emotions through
language, vigorous exercise or
artistic expression.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Theres a mountain of work
ahead, and youre just the goat
to climb to the top of it. There
are key players who believe in
you, maybe even more than you
believe in yourself right now.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Youd
rather be loved than feared, and
yet theres something thrilling
about knowing you have a strong
effect on others. Be mindful not
to play with your power.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Theres
some good that comes from
disagreement, so dont let it
deter you. Consider that maybe
todays disagreement brings a
chance to tell people who you
are and what you need.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (June 19).
Good friendship will arise out
of unlikely scenarios and could
even start out with some kind
of argument. July brings an
introduction that will soon have
you working harder and earn-
ing more. September brings a
restructuring of your schedule
and personal life. Aries and Virgo
people adore you. Your lucky
numbers are: 4, 13, 33, 20 and 18.
