But experts dont give much mileage to belief potholes solely to blame for costly repairs.

PARIS France said Tuesday it has conrmed that the nerve gas sarin was used multiple times and in a localized way in Syria, including at least once by the regime. It was the most specic claim by any Western power about chemical weapons attacks in the 27-month-old conict. Britain later said that tests it conducted on samples taken from Syria also were positive for sarin. The back-to-back announcements left many questions unanswered, highlighting the difculties of conrming from a distance whether combatants in Syria have crossed the red line set by President Barack Obama. The regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad has refused to allow U.N. investigators into the country. The French and British ndings, based on samples taken from Syria, came hours after a U.N. team said it had reasonable grounds to suspect smallscale use of toxic chemicals in at least four attacks in March and April. The U.N. probe was conducted from outside Syrias borders, based on interviews with doc

Theyre in pretty good shape, said Al Cagle, a supervisor in Lehman Township, who noted that routes 118 and 29 have been maintained well and township roads are also in fair shape. Calls to ofcials in nearly a dozen municipalities resulted in mostly the same response.

Health and Human Services chief wont intervene in transplant

Parents of dying Pa. girl want Kathleen Sebelius to change policy for daughter, others.
By MARYCLAIRE DALE Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA The U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services said she wont intervene in an incredibly agonizing transplant decision about

a dying Pennsylvania girl, noting that three other children in the same hospital are just as sick. Kathleen Sebelius told a Congressional panel Tuesday that medical experts should make those decisions. But relatives of 10-year-old Sarah Murnaghan said Sebelius remarks confused them because they want a policy

change for all preadolescent children awaiting lung transplants, not just Sarah. The Newtown Square girl has been hospitalized at Childrens Hospital of Philadelphia for three months with endstage cystic brosis, and is on a ventilator. Her family wants children under 12 to be eligible for adult lungs because so few pediatric lungs are available.

Under current policy, only patients 12 and over can join the list. But Sarahs transplant doctors say she is medically eligible for an adult lung. The change would add perhaps 20 children from ages 8 to 11 to the adult waiting list, which has more than 1,600 people on it, according to Sharon Ruddock, Sarahs aunt. One moment they say were

asking for an exception for Sarah. The next moment they say were asking for sweeping changes and it has to be studied, Ruddock said Tuesday. Sebelius has called for a review of pediatric transplant policies, but the Murnaghans say Sarah doesnt have time for that.

PRINGLE The Joint Operating Committee that oversees the West Side Career and Technical Center approved a nal budget of $6.4 million at a special meeting Tuesday, an increase in spending of $280,000. The budget is funded primarily through per-student contributions from ve school districts that send students to

the center. Administrative Director Nancy Tkatch said the increase was entirely in contractual wages and benets, which make up 86 percent of the budget. The JOC also heard a plea from audio visual teacher Michael Dennis seeking more funding for what are collectively called career and technical student organizations, groups that train for and participate in various competitions related to their eld of study. The best known is probably SkillsUSA, an organization of

schools and industry leaders with the self-stated goal of ensuring a skilled workforce. The organization holds regional, state and national competitions in a wide range of trades taught by career centers like West Side. Dennis noted the student organizations at West Side are almost entirely supported through fundraising, and that the costs can skyrocket if students do get into national championships and require airfare and accommodations in other states. The last thing I want to do is tell my students,

do a great job, just dont win. Dennis said. Tkatch said the Center currently provides about $5,000 annually to the student organizations and that money could be shufed around to double that without changing the budget, an idea the JOC comprised of members of the ve school boards that send students to the center embraced. Dallas School District representative Karen Kyle said it made little sense to withhold money for those who win a chance at state or national

championships. If your football team goes to the state championship, you dont debate it, you get a bus. The board also approved a new weapons policy that tightens denitions and increases the types of items considered weapons while still keeping enough exibility to judge case by case, Tkatch said. The move was done in the wake of recent school violence events, most notably the shootings in an elementary school in Sandy Hook, Conn. Tkatch said the policy should be reviewed periodically.

West Pittston passes Shickshinny adds hours for cops business district grant
By GeRI GIBBonS Times Leader Correspondent

WEST PITTSTON Borough Council on Tuesday approved a $750,000 Local Share Account Grant contract prepared by the state for the Central Business District Flood Recovery Project. Council indicated the funds would be used to help pay for repair of the infrastructure of community businesses damaged by ooding of 2011. Council also approved an ordinance providing an exemption from the borough per capita tax for senior citizens 65 and older whose total income from all sources is less than $25,000 per year. In another matter, council approved the appointment of Curtis Nocera and Frank Oatridge as part-time police ofcers. Council President Barry Hosier said hiring the two ofcers was necessary because of recent loses in the department. Council also approved a proposal from Pikes Creek Con-

tractors for street sweeping services one week per month. Resident Rosemary DeNisco addressed council with concerns about a property she owns at 905/907 Wyoming Ave.. She said improper drainage and sewer problems have resulted in water collecting near and on her property. Its really like a pond, said DeNisco. I have seen children swimming in it. We should just stock it and we can sh there. Borough Engineer Tom Reilly said he would work with Street Department Supervisor Len Pesta to resolve the problem. We will be going out there to assess the situation and reporting back to council in the near future, Reilly said. Council also announced a meeting of West Pittston Tomorrow at Wyoming Area High School on June 26. Issues such as changes in national government insurance practices, determining nancial resources available for ood victims and ood mitigation will be addressed.

Recent drug arrests lead council to hike investigation and enforcement efforts.

By ToM HUnTInGTon Times Leader Correspondent

SHICKSHINNY On the heels of two local drug busts, borough council Tuesday night approved extra hours for the police department to conduct what ofcer-in-charge Brian Morris called drug investigations and enforcement. Council voted 5-0 on Councilman Michael Steebers motion to add 10 hours per week to the departments work schedule the extra hours to be utilized predominantly, Mayor Beverly Moore said, for surveillance of illegal drug activity and accompanying enforcement. Its getting bad, Morris said. We have become aware of more and more activity, as well as an increase in the violent crime that is drug related.

Morris said research by the police department has found that the sale of heroin and marijuana has been on the increase. Mayor Beverly Moore made the initial appeal to expand shifts. She originally asked for 15 extra hours, but Steeber said that was something the borough couldnt afford. After Moore stated, We need to act this could be disastrous for our young people, council then reached a compromise to expand the ofcers shifts by 10 hours. Councilman Kevin Morris praised the civility that prevailed during deliberations that led to a unanimous roll call vote. Morris called it a rare display for a body that has long engaged in heated discussion. Besides drug issues, council acted, at the recommendation of Code Ofcer Rick Harmon, to implement a quality-of-life ordinance, which stipulates a system of warnings and nes

for individuals who fail to maintain their properties according to prevailing regulations. Council, on a 4-1 vote, with Morris voting no, gave Harmon the authority to act in situations in which abandoned vehicles, high weeds and grass, garbage, animal waste and household appliances are sustained illegally on residential property. Similarly, failure to remove snow and ice will fall into the same category, Harmon said. Violations will be preceded by a registered letter from Harmon and thereafter a sequence of $1o, $15 and $25 nes if the property owner fails to act. The nal ne, $25, could also result in a violator needing to remit court costs and other related legal expenses. It was decided the ordinance will become effective 30 days after being published in the newspaper.

COURT BRIEF
WILKES-BARRE A Duryea man charged with handcufng his ex-girlfriend, beating her with a shovel and threatening to kill her was sentenced Tuesday to 12 months, less one day to 24 months, less two days in county prison and ve years probation. Mark Christian Graziosi, 48, of Raspberry Road, previously

pleaded guilty to charges of aggravated assault, unlawful restraint, simple assault, reckless endangerment of another person, false imprisonment and two counts of terroristic threats. County Judge Joseph Sklarosky Jr. ordered Graziosi to have no contact with the woman and to report to the county prison on June 10 to begin serving his sentence. Graziosi must write a letter of apology to the woman. WILKES-BARRE TWP. Township police reported the following: An employee at Gamestop, Wilkes-Barre Township Commons, reported Sunday an unknown male stole $100 worth of video games. A manager at Turkey Hill, Wilkes-Barre Township Boulevard, reported Monday an unknown female stole $37 worth of merchandise. HAZLETON City police believe two robberies within one hour on Monday are related. A woman entered a residence in the 100 block of South Pine Street at about 10:58 p.m. and tried to take a gold necklace from a man who was asleep. When the man woke, the woman brandished a handgun and forcefully removed the necklace. Police said that at about 11:35 p.m., a woman matching the description of the suspect who stole the necklace stole a cellphone from a residence in the 200 block of South Wyoming Street. The woman claimed she was looking for a man to return a passport. Anyone with information about the woman is asked to call 911.

POLICE BLOTTER
DURYEA A juvenile lost control of his vehicle Tuesday afternoon and crashed into a Coxton Road home. The driver, whose name was not released because he is a minor, claimed he fell asleep while driving, police said. Duryea police ofcer Don Macrae said the driver was not under the inuence of drugs or alcohol. The home sustained signicant damage; a parked vehicle there also was damaged. The drivers vehicle and the parked vehicle were damaged most likely beyond repair, Macrae said. The re chief deemed the home livable, Macrae said. The driver sustained minor injuries and was taken to the hospital, but Macrae said he believed he was released later that day. No residents were home during the crash. HANOVER TWP. Township police said a locking hasp was broken off a shed and windows were smashed on a shed and a garage behind two houses on Wilkes-Barre Street on Monday.

FORTY FORT Grass taller than 6 inches not only is a violation of the boroughs property maintenance ordinance, but also is also a breeding ground for ticks that carry Lyme disease, council pointed out Monday. Borough Manager Barbara Fairchild read a letter from resident Lois Post, who is being treated for the disease. In her letter, Post described how a neighbors dog recently died from Lyme disease and other neighbors as well as their dogs are currently being treated for it. We seem to have an epidemic going on, Post wrote. I have suffered with this conrmed disease. My blood work shows improvement, but my body is wracked. I am terried at what this disease could do to a small child. Fairchild advised residents to check their animals closely

for ticks, but said dogs, cats and deer arent the only animals that can be carriers. We have a very high rabbit population, she said. Councilman Dorothy Craig suggested spreading awareness about Lyme disease in a community newsletter. Councilman Frank Michaels agreed, adding that county should also take a proactive approach to help prevent the spread of the debilitating disease. This could spread to other communities, he said. The county should come up with a program. In April, the state Senate unanimously passed Bill 177, which would create a task force within the Department of Health to provide greater public awareness and education about Lyme disease. The Bill is now being considered by the House of Representatives. Walnut Street resident Rob-

ert Cole asked council when the boroughwide sewer project would begin and what streets would be affected. Council President Joe Chacke said a list of affected streets will be posted in the lobby of the borough building. He said residents can call the borough ofce for more information. Chacke said work for the $3.5 million project, to replace 30,000 feet of aging sewer pipe and 120 manholes, will be put out for bid in about two weeks. In other business, council voted to appoint Berkheimer Associates as the boroughs mercantile tax collector at the compensation rate of 2.25 percent for the term of Jan. 1 through Dec. 31, 2015. The Shadetree Commission will host its annual pruning workshop and litter pickup on at 11 a.m. Saturday. Participants are asked to meet at the borough building and bring a pair of pruning shears.

Plymouth Twp. warns owners of unkempt properties

By SUSAn BeTTInGeR Times Leader Correspondent

PLYMOUTH TWP. Township Board Chairperson Gale Conrad said on Monday that any person who holds a title to property within the township is responsible for maintaining the area, even if the person is not living on the premises. Conrad said there is serious a problem where home owners have abandoned their houses, and/or are waiting for a buyout and neglect their properties. There are owners who have let the grass and weeds grow to an unacceptable level, some

as tall as 3 feet high. The unkempt properties are not only an eyesore for the neighbors but are also breeding grounds for rodents and snakes, she said. Conrad said Code Enforcement Ofcer George Jones has a list of these properties and will be issuing citations. In other matters: Supervisors have designated Joseph Yudichak as the agent to handle the grant applications for the last seven homes that were added to the Round Two Buyout following 2011 ooding. Supervisors also voted to

adapt a resolution that allows the Larksville Police Department to handle the growing problems in the old West Side Landll area. The recent unlawful activities include vandalism, trespassing, excessive trash dumping, noise making, quad riding and other nuisance activities. NEPA Alliances Alan Baranski has stated that the selective auditor is presently on site and is working on the 2012 audit report, which should be completed by the end of the summer. The next township board meeting will be July 1 at 6 p.m.

Blaze displaced 14 tenants at Interfaith Heights apartments on Coal Street.

By EDWARD LEWIS elewis@timesleader.com

LOCAL Loaded electrical cord caused re

WILKES-BARRE A re that displaced 14 tenants at Interfaith Heights apartments on Coal Street was caused by an overloaded electrical cord, according to an investigation by city re inspector Capt. Alan Klapat. The re originated in Building 292, the apartment of Candis Thomas, 54, who was not home at the time of the blaze that was reported just after 6:30 p.m. Monday. Klapat concluded that the re originated near an electrical outlet in a bedroom. The outlet was used to power a television, a VCR and ornamental lights. All of the electrical sources were plugged into a single electrical cord, according to Klapats investigation. Fire Chief Jay Delaney said the re was the third electrical re in three weeks and two of the res were caused by improper use of extension cords. Residents of the city need to be extremely careful about when and how to use extension cords because the ramications of misuse can be disastrous to property and human life, Delaney said. As the weather heats up, fans and air conditioners draw tremendous amounts of power, in addition to everyday appliances. People need to be watchful.

Fedorco said he will be sending out literature today to tenants warning them about proper use of electrical cords. The Red Cross and our maintenance staff did a tremendous job, Fedorco said. Thankfully, no one was injured.

A Peckville man has signed a plea agreement with federal prosecutors that could require that he serve 13 to 19 years behind bars. Mark Kandel, 53, will acknowledge that he engaged in the online enticement of minors, committing the offenses from January 2012 through November 2012. As part of the plea agreement, Kandel also will receive a lifetime term of supervised release upon the completion of any term of incarceration and will be subject to the registration and reporting requirements of the Adam Walsh Act. Kandel, who previously worked as a curriculum specialist with the Northeast Education Intermediate Unit 19 in Archbald and had served on the Scranton School Board in the 1990s, also pleaded guilty four years ago to supplying alcohol to minors during a party at his home. He also is facing felony charges in Lackawanna County for criminal solicitation and having contact with a minor to engage in sex.

Bob Makaravage, owner of RJ Marine sales in Wilkes-Barre, holds a list of requirements for a rescue craft he was going to offer to Wilkes-Barre for $10,000 less than the winning bid. He chose not to bid because of a 10 percent bid security check that was needed.

W-B boat buy process criticized

Man says he did not enter bidding for new rescue water craft due to prohibitive bidding requirements.
By BILL OBOYLE boboyle@timesleader.com

U.S. Sen. Bob Casey, D-Scranton, Tuesday unveiled a bipartisan jobs bill that he said will help businesses create jobs through targeted tax relief. Caseys bill includes provisions to aid start-up businesses and help existing companies make Casey capital improvements and draws on ideas that members of both parties have supported. The Small Business Tax Certainty and Growth Act would provide small businesses with the certainty they need to make long-range investment plans by making permanent the maximum allowable deduction under Section 179 of the Internal Revenue Code, a release from Casey said. Section 179 allows small businesses to more rapidly deduct the cost of acquired assets.

Casey unveils jobs bill

WILKES-BARRE A city businessman says he could have saved the city $10,000 on the purchase of its new rescue water craft if it werent for prohibitive requirements of the bidding process. Bob Makaravage, owner of RJ Marine on Moyallen Street, objected to the requirement of submitting a bid security check of 10 percent of his bid, so he didnt submit one. He said he wasnt guaranteed the bid security would be returned if he was unsuccessful. But Drew McLaughlin, the citys municipal affairs manager, said Makaravage was assured his security check would be returned. He also said the requirement is standard procedure in the bidding process. Yeah, I get the 10 percent back, but

when? Makaravage said. This policy isnt worth $10,000 to the taxpayers. Makaravage said he understands the policy and how it could protect the city from y-by-night contractors or vendors. I just dont think I should be forced to put money up front, he said. Is it a good policy? Maybe for some things it is, but its a way to keep certain people from bidding. McLaughlin said City Council approved the purchase of the new rescue craft from Mid Atlantic Rescue Systems of Maryland for $30,791. Makaravage said his bid is still sealed and sitting in his ofce. He said his bid was for $21,000. The city wont be receiving my mercantile sales tax for this, he said. I think the bid requirement is stupid. I pay city taxes, county taxes and school taxes. Im a local businessman and should have been given consideration. McLaughlin said the city has followed the same bidding process for past purchases with federal grant money, such

as ambulances, Jaws-of-Life and debrillators. He said the city would have welcomed Makaravages bid and had he been certied, the city would be glad to have an extra $10,000 to use elsewhere. The 10 percent requirement is to assure we get qualied contractors, McLaughlin said. It ensures a competent bid process and that bids arent withdrawn prematurely. He said Makaravage made the decision not to submit a bid and as a result, the city received two bids the Mid Atlantic bid and another that was disqualied by the city attorney because it did not meet all specications. We really dont understand why he (Makaravage) didnt submit a bid, McLaughlin said. Sometimes the lowest price is not always the best. We have to award contracts to the lowest responsible bidder. If there was a large disparity between bids, we would look at it and determine if all specications were being met. McLaughlin said the new rescue craft will be able to be serviced locally.

He had only seen Jason Fierman, who is standing trial this week on charges he provided drugs to an inmate while the man was incarcerated at the prison, in pictures shown to him by members of the state Attorney Generals Ofce. I made a mistake. I was drinking in a bar, said Ricci, 38, of WilkesBarre, who is Fierman serving a seven- to-14-year prison sentence on charges he participated in a $3.6 million cocaine distribution ring. Im not telling stories. Ive never spoken to him in my life. Ricci was one of several witnesses called Tuesday to testify at Fiermans trial. Prosecutors say Fierman, between 2006 and 2008, provided a total of about 60 pills of Suboxone to a county prison inmate, James Dormio. Deputy Attorney General Tim Doherty completed calling witnesses, including Dormio, Tuesday. Defense attorneys will present any witnesses today before attorneys present closing arguments and a jury is sent to deliberate Fiermans fate on charges of criminal conspiracy to deliver a controlled substance, delivery of a controlled substance and possession of a controlled substance. Ricci said he tried to tell judges, prosecutors and defense attorneys about the mistake in identity, but his repeated letters fell on deaf ears. Ricci testied prosecutors and investigators put him under a ton of pressure when he previously testied about selling a half ball of cocaine to Fierman for $90. A half ball is just under 2 grams of cocaine. Its a mistake, Ricci told Doherty, who shook his head a number of times throughout his testimony. I didnt know you had other stuff on (Fierman). That other stuff, Dormio previously testied, was that Fierman supplied him with Suboxone, a drug typically used to treat opiate addiction. But, Dormio testied Tuesday he doesnt remember ever saying that. I have been on drugs all my

cluding forgery, retail theft and those that are drug-related. Doherty also called former county prison Warden Joseph Piazza, who retired at the end of 2012, who testied Dormio came to him with a claim that Fierman was providing Dormio with drugs, and that he in turn contacted the state Attorney Generals Ofce. Defense attorneys William Ruzzo and Basil Russin called one of their witnesses out of order from the normal course of a trial David Tevet, owner of Ollies Restaurant in Edwardsville. Tevet has employed Fierman for a number of years as a cook, and called Fierman a hard-working, law-abiding citizen. Tevet said Fierman gets along with all his other employees and they all know him to be a law-abiding citizen.

Dallas Twp. supervisors told time running out on grant FIERMAN

Green light given to two projects that would be funded with $100,000 grant.
By SuSan Denney Times Leader Correspondent

DALLAS TWP.Township engineer Tom Doughton told supervisors on Tuesday that they must hurry if theyre going to take advantage of their 2011 community development block grant. The $100,000 grant must be spent by October. Doughton said the board has limited options because

of time constraints. But he named two projects that would meet federal guidelines and that could be approved and completed in the given amount of time. The rst project described by Doughton is a footbridge near the Kunkle Fire Station that would replace an old span that was taken down several years ago. He also said the board could choose to make improvements to Old Tunkhannock Highway as that project has been previously approved. The supervisors gave the Although the funding for these type projects ceased in September 2010, the cleanup project received additional state funding because the city did not operate the abandoned tanks, nor did the city cause or contribute to the associated pollution. A study was conducted to assess if anyone was at risk of exposure to contaminants from the former tank locations. As

Doughton said new federal guidelines severely limited the ways the 2014 money could be spent. In another matter, attorney Mark Van Loon presented a proposed zoning change for Misericordia University. Van Loon said the university is now in two different zones and that neither t.

The supervisors agreed that a public meeting will be held to discuss Misericordias zoning proposal. Planning commission members, zoning board members and other interested township ofcials will be included in the meeting.

Dormio, who has been incarcerated for almost 30 years on 51 different convictions, said he doesnt remember what he had for dinner last week, let alone testimony from years ago. My life is one big drug-induced, lie-induced blur, Dormio said, noting his life has been full of deception and lies because of the crimes he has committed, in-

Turkey protests personal

Middle class increasingly fed up with what it sees as high-handed, authoritarian style.

Ex-hacker gives testimony

one-time computer hacker who told authorities Pfc. Bradley Manning was giving information to WikiLeaks testied Tuesday the soldier never said he wanted to help the enemy during their online chats. Manning is on trial for giving hundreds of thousands of documents to the secret-spilling website WikiLeaks. He pleaded guilty to charges that could bring 20 years behind bars, but the military has pressed ahead with a court-martial on more serious charges, including aiding the enemy. That charge carries a potential life sentence. Adrian Lamo, a convicted hacker, said he started chatting online with Manning on May 20, 2010, and alerted law enforcement the next day about the contents of the soldiers messages.

Brash and stubborn, Turkeys leader doesnt shrink from a scrap. His voice booms when he gets on a podium and his folksy zingers enthrall supporters as much as they repulse opponents. That trademark combativeness, though, is fueling protests against his government. For perhaps the rst time in a decade of power, Recep Tayyip Erdogan looks vulnerable. Turkey has been gripped by street skirmishes since Friday, when a police raid against a peaceful demonstration in an Istanbul park blew the lid off pent-up hostility toward the government. The protests are largely driven by visceral dislike among urban and secular circles for Erdogan, the three-term prime minister with designs on the presidency who helped build a middle class. His hardheadedness once served him

well, helping him project Turkish inuence in the region, excise military meddling from politics and build a model for countries struggling to reconcile Islam and democratic impulses. But his uncompromising style is now working against him, as members of the middle class he helped foster make it clear theyve had enough of his rule. Though many see him as out of touch with his early commitment to individual freedoms and democratic reforms, Erdogan can still count on a powerful support base of conservative Turks. Though some government ofcials have hinted at disagreement with their leaders approach, Erdogan has so far chosen confrontation over reconciliation, dismissing the demonstrators as rabble. Erdogan, an ex-football player from a poor neighborhood of Istanbul, has led his ruling party to a string of electoral landslides over the fractured political opposition. But government opponents complain of unilateral decision-making and edicts that appear to be religiously motivated and pose a challenge to Turkeys secular principles. Protesters vent their displeasure by

Christie sets Senate election

Gov. Chris Christie on Tuesday set an October special election to ll the U.S. Senate seat made vacant by Frank Lautenbergs death, a decision that gets voters the quickest possible say on who will represent them in Washington but preserves Christie as the top attraction on Novembers ballot. The move means the state will have two statewide elecChristie tions three weeks apart, a rare occurrence that Democrats immediately criticized as a wasteful move designed to help the governors political position. At a news conference, Christie didnt answer the big question of whom hell appoint to ll the seat in the meantime, but he said he has a list of possibilities in his head and will announce a decision quickly.

Foot odor may aid malaria ght

Study: Surgery aids diabetes

Obesity surgery worked much better at reducing and even reversing diabetes than medication and lifestyle changes in one of the most rigorous studies of its kind. But the researchers and others warn that possible serious complications need to be considered. The yearlong study indicates that the most common weight-loss surgery, gastric bypass, can effectively treat diabetes in patients with mild to moderate obesity about 50 to 70 pounds overweight, the researchers reported Tuesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
NYACK, N.Y.

CHICAGO

LONDON For decades, health ofcials have battled malaria with insecticides, bed nets and drugs. Now, scientists say there might be a potent new tool to ght the deadly mosquitoborne disease: the stench of human feet. In a laboratory study, researchers found that mosquitoes infected with the tropical disease were more attracted to human odors from a dirty sock than those that didnt carry malaria. Insects carrying malaria parasites were three times more likely to be drawn to the stinky stockings. The new nding may help create traps that target only malaria-carrying mosquitoes, researchers say.

Smelly feet have a use after all, said Dr. James Logan, who headed the research at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. Every time we identify a new part of how the malaria mosquito interacts with us, were one step closer to controlling it better. The sock ndings were published last month in the journal, PLoS One. Malaria is estimated to kill more than 600,000 people every year, mostly children in Africa. Experts have long known that mosquitoes are drawn to human odors, but it was unclear if being infected with malaria made them even more attracted to us. Infected mosquitoes are believed to make up about 1 percent of the mosquito population.

Using traps that only target malaria mosquitoes could result in fewer mosquitoes becoming resistant to the insecticides used to kill them. And it would likely be difcult for the insects to evade traps based on their sense of smell, scientists say. The only way mosquitoes could (develop resistance) is if they were less attracted to human odors, said Andrew Read, a professor of biology and entomology at the University of Pennsylvania, who was not part of Logans research. And if they did that and started feeding on something else like cows that would be ne. Read said the same strategy might also work to target insects that carry other diseases such as dengue and Japanese encephalitis.

WASHINGTON Ofcers with a nger on the trigger of the Air Forces most powerful nuclear missiles are complaining of a wide array of morale-sapping pressures, according to internal emails obtained by The Associated Press. The complaints shed fresh light on dissatisfactions roiling this critical arm of the Air Force, an undercurrent that has captured the attention of the services leaders. Key themes among the complaints include working under poor leadership and being stuck in dead-end careers in nuclear weapons, one email said. The sentiments were expressed privately by members of the 91st Missile Wing at Minot Air Force Base, N.D., in an unpublished study for the Air Force. The complaints also said there was a need for more experienced missile ofcers, a less arduous work schedule and leaders who will listen. Taken together, the complaints suggest sagging morale in arguably the most sensitive segment of the American military. The 91st at Minot operates 150 intercontinental ballistic missiles one-third of the entire ICBM force. The missiles stand in underground silos on constant alert for launch within minutes of a presidential order. In the nuclear missile business, morale is not a trivial matter. Mental state is treated as a vital sign like physical health, criminal record and technical knowhow that must be monitored to indicate whether an individual is t to be trusted with weapons of such destructive power. The question of morale at Minot coincides with trouble inside the ranks of the 91st. The Associated Press reported on May 8 that 17 launch crew members representing about 10 percent of the launch crew force had been taken off duty for remedial training after a poor showing in a key portion of an inspection. The story was based on an April 12 internal Air Force email that said the 91st suffered from rot within its ranks, including tolerance of weapons safety rules violations. Air Force leaders told Congress the problem was less about poor performance than about poor attitude. Last week the Air Force said two additional launch ofcers at Minot had been sidelined, for a total of 19. An Air Force spokesman, Lt. Col. Ronald Watrous, said that 10 of the 19 had completed the two-month process of regaining certication. Most of the rest are expected to do so by the end of this month.

Gas blast at college injures 7

Ohio State president retires after jabs at Notre Dame

Gordon Gee came under re for joking about those damn Catholics at notre Dame.
By ANDREW WELSH-HUGGINS Associated Press

A presumed natural gas explosion in a college building Tuesday blew out windows, sent a door sailing through the air and injured seven people, but authorities said none of the injuries was life-threatening. After the blast, gas rose to explosive levels as high as 70 percent in the manholes at Nyack College outside New York City, said Mike Donohue of Orange & Rockland Utilities. He said natural gas was assumed to be the cause of the explosion, which happened shortly before noon and caused serious damage to the basement and rst oor. A female student and six employees were taken to the hospital. The school sent out a tweet saying that Everyone is doing ok.

COLUMBUS, Ohio Ohio State University President Gordon Gee announced his retirement Tuesday after he came under re for jokingly referring to those damn Catholics at Notre Dame and poking fun at the academic quality of other schools. The remarks were rst reported last week by The Associated Press, and Ohio State at the time called them unacceptable and said it had

placed Gee on a remediation plan to change his behavior. Gee, 69, said in a teleconference Tuesday that the furor was only part of his decision to retire, which he said he had been considering for a while. He said his age and the start of a long-term planning debate at the university were also factors. I live in turbulent times and Ive had a lot of headwinds, and so almost every occasion, I have just moved on, he said. Gee explained away the abrupt timing of his announcement by saying he was quirky as hell and hated long transitions. According to a recording of a Dec. 5 meeting obtained by

ed to join the Big Ten athletic conference because you just cant trust those damn Cath-

olics. Gee also took shots at schools in the Southeastern Conference and the University of Louisville, according to the recording of the meeting of the schools Athletic Council. Gee apologized when the comments were disclosed, saying they were a poor attempt at humor and entirely inappropriate. Robert Schottenstein, who as chairman of the universitys board of trustees condemned the remarks last week as wholly unacceptable and not presidential in nature, deected questions of whether Gee had been forced out by the board.

nne Skordy completed her journey on Earth Monday at home, surrounded by family and friends. Born on Jan. 23, 1918, she was a daughter of the late Stanley and Melania Yazwinsky Yachwan. The doctor who delivered her at home thought she might not survive when she developed bronchitis. He didnt know what a ghter she was, as she went on to live more than 95 years. Her difcult birth prepared her for the many trials she would have to face in life. Growing up during the Depression, she helped her family nancially as a teenager by doing housework for a doctors family. She was very proud to buy her mother a new winter coat, bought with the rst money she earned. Saving some of her earnings, she put herself through Wilkes-Barre Business College. When she married her husband, Russ, and started a family, her life was going well. Things changed quickly, though, when Russ was drafted into the U.S. Army during World War II and she had herself and a 2-year-old daughter to support. Making the best of the situation, she decided to open a small grocery store, which she ran for almost 15 years. After her father passed away in 1959, she closed the store and she and her family moved to her family home, where she took care of her mother for the next 10 years. She became the matriarch of the family and, during those years, her sister and brothers and their families enjoyed many delicious holiday meals she prepared. Her nal 16 years were the most challenging, when she developed Alzheimers disease. More than two of those years were spent at Manor Care after she fell and broke her hip. She had many wonderful caregivers there, especially Sam and Missy, who made her stay more pleasant. While there, she developed a gall bladder blockage, which necessitated a three-hour operation at the age of 90. After her surgery, her daughter felt she should spend her nal years at home. With the help of Drs. Haung and Jurta and her two longtime caregivers, Pat Beaver and Sue Tenega, she enjoyed life in her home once again. Although she lost her ability to remember, she never lost her sense of humor, strong will and beautiful

Lottery will determine write-in winners in 3 races

Republican write-ins in three municipalities found themselves in ties.
By JENNIFER LEARN-ANDES jandes@timesleader.com

The Republican write-in nominees in three municipal races must be decided through a lottery system because the votes were tied in the recent primary election, Luzerne County election ofcials say. To break a tie, the candidates, in alphabetical order, draw numbered pills that have been shaken in a bottle. The person who draws the lowest-numbered pill is declared the winner. This drawing is scheduled at noon Friday in the county elec-

tion ofce, located on the second oor of the countys Penn Place Building at the corner of Market Street and Pennsylvania Avenue, Wilkes-Barre. The tied candidates are: Gary Moran and David Stochla, Edwardsville council; John P. Gibbons and Ann C. Hughes, Ashley council; and Robert Linskey and Coreen A. Milazzo, Jenkins Township supervisor. The county Election Board on Monday certied the write-in nominees for several municipal and school races. These winners will appear on the November ballot. On the Republican ticket, the winning write-in nominees include: Edwardsville council, Leonard Davies and David He said that there was no doubt that at least in one case, the regime and its allies were responsible for the attack. We have integrally traced the chain, from the attack, to the moment people were killed, to when the samples were taken and analyzed, Fabius told the TV station France 2. He said a line was crossed and that all options are on the table, including intervening militarily where the gas is produced or stored. In London, Britains Foreign Ofce said samples from Syria were tested at a government laboratory and the presence of sarin was conrmed. It did not say when or where the samples were obtained. Britain has evidence suggesting a number of different chemical agents have been used, sometimes including sarin, sometimes not, said Britains ambassador to the United Nations, Mark Lyall Grant. White House spokesman Jay Carney, speaking before the British announcement, said the French report is entirely consistent with the Obama adminis-

We need more information, he said. Russia, meanwhile, has rejected intelligence the U.S. provided last month suggesting the Assad regime used chemical weapons on its own people, American ofcials said. A U.S. diplomatic delegation that was sent to Moscow failed to persuade Russian ofcials and prompted no change in the Kremlins support for Assad, said the ofcials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they werent authorized to speak publicly on the matter. Experts disagreed on whether the latest chemical weapons allegations mean Obamas red line has been crossed. The verdict is still open, said Jean Pascal Zanders, an independent chemical weapons consultant, speaking before the French and British announcements. Zanders said that while claims of chemical weapons use cannot be ignored, the details of

The Democratic write-in nominees include: Hanover Township commissioner, Patthe alleged attacks often dont correspond to the purported symptoms shown in videos or reported by witnesses. Analyst Michael Eisenstadt said he believes Obamas red line has indeed been crossed on a number of times, as there are persistent reports of limited, continued use of chemical weapons from various sources that seem fairly credible. The French ndings give additional weight to previous suspicions, though people will want to know about the chain of custody for the evidence, said Eisenstadt, of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy think tank. Since allegations of the use of chemical weapons rst emerged late last year, the U.N. has investigated on two separate tracks, while France, Britain, Turkey and the U.S. have conducted additional probes. The team appointed by the Human Rights Council has issued periodic updates about suspected war crimes in Syria, and Tuesdays report dealt with chemical weapons, among a wide range of topics.

The new rules give the younger children priority over adults when adolescent lungs become available and give the sickest children priority in a 1,000-mile radius, a broader range than used in the adult system, he said in the letter, which was shared by the ofce of Rep. Patrick Meehan, R-Pa. Meehan, in a letter to Sebelius, said Sarahs doctors are condent they can perform a successful transplant on her. And he said she would jump to the top of the adult list if placed there, given the stage of her disease. If she was 12 this wouldnt be an issue, Meehan wrote. Sarah is not asking to be placed ahead of another, but rather she is petitioning for the ability to compete for equitable treatment based on sound medical judgment and that she be accorded her appropriate place in line. Her need and survivability are the critical factors.

tors and witnesses of purported attacks and a review of amateur videos from Syria. The team said solid evidence will remain elusive until inspectors can collect samples from victims directly or from the sites of alleged attacks. Some experts cautioned that the type of evidence currently available to investigators videos, witness reports and physiological samples of uncertain origin leaves wide doubts. At the same time, forensic evidence of alleged chemical weapons use is fading away with time, and the longer U.N. inspectors are kept out of Syria, the harder it will be to collect conclusive proof, they said. Syria is suspected of having one of the worlds largest chemical weapons arsenals, including mustard and nerve gas, such as sarin. In recent weeks, the regime and those trying to topple Assad have increasingly used accusations of chemical weapons as a propaganda tool, but have offered no solid proof. In the West, meanwhile, the lack of certainty about such allegations is linked to a high stakes political debate over whether the U.S. should get more involved in the Syria conict, including by arming those ghting Assad. Obama has been reluctant to send weapons to the Syrian rebels, in part because of the presence of Islamic militants among them. Obama has warned that the use of chemical weapons or their transfer to a terrorist group would cross a red line, hinting at forceful intervention in such an event. Yet he has insisted on a high level of proof, including a chain of custody, that can come only from on-site investigations currently being blocked by the regime. In Tuesdays announcement about sarin, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said his government had analyzed several samples, including some brought back from Syria by reporters from the Le Monde newspaper.

Im begging you. She has three to ve weeks to live. Please suspend the rules, U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta, R-Hazleton, urged Sebelius at a House Education and the Workforce Committee hearing on her departments budget. Sebelius conceded that the case was an incredibly agonizing situation, but said that many complex factors go into the transplant-list formula. Researchers have less data on lung transplants in preadolescents because only about 20 a year are done. And young children suffer from different lung diseases than adolescents and adults, making it harder to weigh their risk versus their chance of surviving a transplant, according to a letter to Sebelius from Dr. John P. Roberts, president of the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network. Amid concerns about the higher mortality rate in pe-

Store buys of medicine led police to meth lab

Stephen Reider of Shickshinny, was arraigned on charges linked to drug manufacture.
By EDWARD LEWIS elewis@timesleader.com

Pittston wants latitude on noise law

City seeks provision from LCB to monitor places allowing reasonable music levels.
By JON OCONNELL joconnell@timesleader.com

SHICKSHINNY Police monitoring purchases of cold medicine at area pharmacies arrested a man they allege had ingredients to make methamphetamine. Stephen Rodney Reider, 32, of Baer Street, Shickshinny, was arraigned Tuesday on four counts of reckless end a n ge r m e n t , and one count each of possession with intent to deliver Reider a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia. He was jailed at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $15,000 bail. Police allege Reider had tubing, hoses connected to bottle caps, three funnels, coffee lters, drain opener, liquid re, a glass bowl with white residue, Coleman fuel, lye and other items consistent with methamphetamine production in his bedroom closet. According to the criminal complaint: Shickshinny ofcer in charge Brian W. Morris has been tracking store purchases of psuedoephedrine by people residing at Reiders residence for the last several months. A pharmacy in Nanticoke on Tuesday blocked the sale of the cold medicine to a female due to federal regulations, which require buyers to swipe their drivers license or identication card prior to purchase. Later on Tuesday, Reider went to the same pharmacy and purchased 2.4 grams of psuedoephedrine. Police arrived at Reiders house, where they were told by unnamed residents that they were cooking methamphetamine near a creek just outside Shickshinny, the complaint says. Reider allegedly told police he cooked methamphetamine in the woods and would burn harmful containers before returning to his house. A preliminary hearing is scheduled on June 19 before District Judge John Hasay in Shickshinny.

PITTSTON Just in time for summer outdoor entertainment, the city might get provisional oversight of liquor-licensed businesses to enforce its nuisance noise law. At a Monday hearing in Coopers Seafood House, City Administrator Joe Moskovitz and city solicitor Sam Falcone presented their case for taking jurisdiction from the Pennsylvania

Liquor Control Board. Under the states purview, noise violations such as a band or DJ playing on the Tomato Bars new deck or a similar outdoor bar could result in an LCB citation, Falcone said. If the city has the reins, local law enforcement, including police and code enforcement ofcials, could give warnings and citations to bars and restaurants for making too much noise. Moskovitz said the Pittston law is a trial run. During the hearing, ofcials told LCB hearing examiner Tom Miller that they have issued citations to residents since the ordinance was

enacted in February, but not to any bars or restaurants. Police Chief Robert Powers said his department also has not received noise complaints from residents about these businesses. The hearing happened at Coopers because, according to the state code, it must take place within the borders of the area affected. That area proposed to be under city jurisdiction Falcone referred to it as the central business district is between 10 and 15 percent of the citys two square miles and follows Main Street and Kennedy Boulevard. Bars and restaurants out-

side the area will be left to the LCBs rule because they are too close to or part of mostly residential areas. The power transfer is provisional and, if granted to the city, ofcials most likely will have to re-petition in a year when it expires. Miller said for rst-time petitions such as Pittstons, usually one year is granted to see how law enforcement handles the responsibility. LCB ofcials must make their decision by July 16, 60 days after the city led for the exemption. Coopers owner, Paul Cooper, testied because LCB ofcials cited his restaurant for loud mu-

sic coming from the Cabana late one night last year. Cooper said that since then he has heard from only one resident about the noise and cut entertainment down to two- and three-man music groups on the weekends and a DJ playing on Sundays. All music stops at 11 p.m., Cooper said. Christine Dumas, who lives within shouting distance of Coopers on Elizabeth Street, said noise from the Cabana has quieted in the last year; however, it drifts up occasionally. You know theyre down there but I dont think it offends anybody, Dumas said.

Dorrance Twp. approves plan for Pennsy

By TOM HUNTINGTON Times Leader Correspondent

WILKES-BARRE A woman was arraigned Tuesday on charges of driving under the inuence after city police allege she had controlled substances in her bloodstream when she rear ended a vehicle injuring another woman in April. Police said Deanna L. Johnson, 24, of Grovier Street, Wilkes-Barre, had fentanyl, marijuana and lorazepam in her bloodstream when she struck the back of a Hyundai Sonata driven by Janet Keats on George Avenue on April 3. According to the criminal complaint:

Johnson told Keats she had no license and insurance and had just purchased her Dodge Charger. Keats told Johnson to wait in her car for police. Johnson returned to Keats car screaming and crying that her life is ruined, the complaint says. Johnson drove away as Keats followed her. Johnson stopped several times telling Keats she doesnt have a heart. Keats husband showed up using his truck to block Johnson on St. Clair Street. Johnson failed to produce an insurance card for the Dodge, which was registered to her boyfriend, police said.

Johnson was transported to Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center where a blood test allegedly showed the medications and marijuana in her system. Police said Keats suffered a neck injury and was treated at Wilkes-Barre General Hospital. Johnson was charged with three counts of driving under the inuence of a controlled substance, and one count each of aggravated assault by vehicle while driving under the inuence, driving without a license, accidents involving injury, failure to notify police of an accident, failure to stop and give aid, careless driving and reckless driving. She was released on $5,000 unsecured bail. A preliminary hearing is scheduled on June 20 before District Judge Martin Kane.

DORRANCE TWP. Pennsy Supply Inc. saw two decisions go its way at Mondays meeting of the Board of Supervisors. On a motion made by Supervisor Royce Engler, the board voted unanimously to accept the nal development plan submitted by Pennsy for the re-location and expansion of its quarry operation on Small Mountain Road. Board Chairman Gary Zane and Supervisor Bill Wengrzynek joined Engler in the voting to approve the motion. The supervisors were acting on a recommendation submitted by the township Planning Commission, which, after a May 15 meeting, recommended the companys plan be approved. But Kevin Casey, a Small Mountain Road resident, has led an appeal in Luzerne County Court to halt the proposed project. At Mondays meeting,

Casey said his challenge is moving forward. He said documents on the hearing process conducted in 2012 have been provided to the court. Pennsy also saw its bid of $66,591 accepted for a paving project on St. Marys Road. Out of six bidders, Pennsy was low by more than $7,000. In other business: On the recommendation of solicitor James Schneider, the supervisors delayed acting on the Button Land Development plan. Schneider cited issues related to surface water and storm water systems. Keith Hazlak of Stairville Road, who in May complained about noise created by Mountain Express Trucking, once again appealed to supervisors for relief. Zane told Hazlak that Alan Snelson, zoning ofcer, is working on it but the supervisors also have to follow existing ordinances.

Your New Years Resolution

Pa. legislator urged to resign after online rants

The Associated Press

DONT DIE!
If you smoke cigarettes, you are risking more than you think. But thanks to support from a new breakthrough product, you can quit naturally and actually regain your health. Heres how...

PITTSBURGH A state legislator from western Pennsylvania who admitted using ctitious names to attack constituents who support natural gas drilling is being urged to resign by some voters and newspapers. Rep. Jesse White, D-Allegheny, apologized last week for the online attacks posted on several local and

out-of-state websites. The postings were rst reported by KDKA-TV. The Observer-Reporter of Washington said a search of their website found numerous posts by Janice Gibson came from an Internet address that matches Whites personal account. The posts criticized local ofcials and fellow Democrats Sen. Tim Solobay and Rep. Brandon Neuman, and urged that some employees of

energy company Range Resources be red. White also called former Democratic Gov. Ed Rendell a paid whore for the natural gas industry. Washington County District Attorney Gene Vittone said Tuesday that his ofce is aware of the issue, but that he cant comment on whether there is an ofcial investigation. Its not clear if White broke any laws.

The statistics are scary, a vast number of smokers die of lung or throat cancer. But the good news is that non smokers can avoid 90% of lung, throat and esophageal cancer (conversely, 90% of them are caused by smoking). Smokers are many times more likely to suffer heart attacks than non-smokers. Smoking is a leading cause of wrinkles and premature skin aging and a leading cause of erectile dysfunction in men. In women it causes breasts to sag, teeth to yellow, wrinkles to form around the eyes and a host of other changes in the mouth. But you dont have to end up a statistic. No need to continue a smoking habit that is slowly killing you when you can quit and join the millions of others who have quit. Introducing ModeraXL.

RICHARD HENRY SUTLIFF

Dr. Ronald B. Jahner has been national board certied as a Naturopathic Physician and has over 30 years of experience in clinical nutrition and natural therapies. He is also a certied Addictionologist and is currently involved in the Medical Diplomat program with the American College of Addictions and Compulsive Behavior Disorders. According to Dr. Jahner, ModeraXL is an effective and natural way to support reducing cravings, restore brain chemistry and supplement the nutrients the brain needs to recover from addictive behavior. I strongly recommend its use.
When youre addicted, you not only face health issues from the addiction itself but you also destroy your brains vital neurotransmitters. Our neurotransmitters are natural brain chemicals that mediate mood and allow us to feel calm, energized, happy, excited, rewarded, focused and able to sleep. By depleting the neurotransmitters, thinking is impaired and the desire for the addictive substance increases. Its a vicious cycle. But you can now stop that cycle with a new vitamin-based product called ModeraXL. Heres what it does.

SERVING THE PUBLIC TRUST SINCE 1881

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 5, 2013 PAgE 11A

OTHER OPINION: LIHEAP BACKLOG

HE CORBETT administration doesnt seem to care that it has acquired a reputation for callous treatment of poor people. If it cared, it wouldnt have failed to process federal energy assistance applications and risk thousands of low-income customers having to pay reconnection fees through no fault of their own. The state Department of Public Welfare is responsible for processing applications for the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP), which helps families pay utility bills. The $185 million program is fully funded by the federal government, so the DPW cannot use a lack of funds as an excuse for its failure to process the applications of 8,000 families who have been waiting more than 90 days for an answer. State rules require Pennsylvania to process applications in 30 days. When an applications backlog occurred last year, then-Secretary of Welfare Gary Alexander promised it wouldnt happen again. But it has. The state has a total backlog of 14,000 applications. Thats 14,000 families in danger of losing their power and having to live without hot water for bathing or washing dishes and clothes. When the LIHEAP checks do arrive, families paying their utility bills late may have to pay reconnection fees, straining fragile budgets.

More mistreatment for poor, elderly

DPW ofcials told Inquirer reporter Alfred Lubrano that the agency would work with utilities to delay service terminations in some circumstances. Thats a good start, but this is yet another unsettling example of how the Corbett administration has mistreated struggling families. It has been routinely late with unemployment payments, which has drawn sharp criticism by the U.S. Department of Labor. Corbett instituted a means test for food stamps, resulting in the cutoff of 4,000 people, even though that hurdle had been rejected by most states as being harmful to the poor and elderly. Corbett cut general assistance to poor adults and child-care subsidies for working families. A stumble by his administration tossed 89,000 children from Medicaid. And he has yet to agree to implement the Affordable Care Act, which could provide health insurance to 650,000, using federal funds. This profoundly disturbing pattern goes beyond the apparent ineptness of an overwhelmed bureaucracy. It raises questions about the intent of the governor and his cabinet. Beyond correcting egregious errors that are hurting families, Corbett should take time to explain to the public why his folks are misring so often with programs that aid the poor.

then this leads us to develop programs that will seek to alter the person into something they are not nor will or can ever be. It causes us to seek to alter the person by force, coercion and manipulation. The world of someone with autism is often misunderstood. One may see the person apping their arms, and see this as strangeand in need of suppression. But if we look inwardly and explore the meaning behind this action, we may nd it is telling us of something, it is indicative of how that person feels. It is one of their few ways to be able to share their experience.

Holder has become a political liability

ism. Lately his Justice Department has offended journalists by monitoring calls made by Associated Press reporters in a leak investigation and also targeting a Fox News reporter in a separate probe. There is no doubt that sometimes Holder has not been deft. To calm the media, he held an off-the-record interview with editors and tried to mollify them with promises of a federal shield law to protect reporters sources. He was held in contempt by Congress for not handing over documents in the Fast and Furious gun walking asco. Although that was political grandstanding by Republicans, it was also an embarrassment to administration claims of being transparent. Even if he were not close to Holder, the president knows that replacing one lightning rod with another will not stop the lightning and that assumes GOP senators would conrm any replacement nominee. No wonder Obama stands by the attorney general who politically isnt doing him much good. If Holder goes, it may have to be through the self-realization that he cant be effective under the weight of successive controversies, fair or not.
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

ExT TO his boss the president, Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. may have the hardest job in government. As the recent history of both major parties illustrates, the person who serves as the nations chief law enforcement ofcer pleases few people and infuriates many. Holder himself appears to recognize that he has become a political liability. According to a story in Sundays New York Times, he considered stepping down after four years but did not in part because he wanted to move beyond the disputes that had characterized his tenure. The article made it clear that although President Barack Obama stands with him, some in the White House privately say he should step down. To be fair, much of what he has done would be excoriated by Republicans, no matter who was attorney general. His resistance to GOP efforts to pass onerous voter ID laws has been stout he said such a law in Texas amounted to a poll tax and he has been a rm advocate of the Affordable Care Act. But he has also offended civil libertarians by trying to justify deadly drone attacks by American citizens accused of terror-

I feel it was a question steeped in ignorance of constitutional guarantees. To my way of thinking, ignorance unchallenged is ignorance victorious. First I suggest he read the U.S. Constitution. Particularly the 4th, 5th and 6th Amendments. They enumerate the rights granted the accused. You see, Mr. Jag, as far back as 1791 a person was considered innocent, not someone who was guilty for sure. I also suggest that Mr. Jag read The Innocent Man by John Grisham. It concerns the murder of a young woman in Ada, Okla. It is replete with prosecutorial and police misconduct and ineffective defense council. Two young men were convicted. One was sentenced to life imprisonment the other was sentenced to die. They suffered their indignities for 12 years, steadfastly proclaiming their innocence -- not totally unheard of in a prison. In 1998, in conjunction with The Innocence Project, the defendants lawyer nally was given samples of forensic evidence for DNA testing. The results cleared both men and implicated a third who was eventually convicted of the crime. The person convicted was the last person to see the young woman alive. Strangely enough, the police and prosecutor had this information and never called him in for testing or questioning. The above should put to rest the assumption that the prosecuting attorneys are the only ones that deal with the facts about any case. The National Registry of Exonerations listed 891 people who have been exonerated through DNA and non-DNA evidence. Of these, the Innocence Project lists 307 who were exonerated; 18 of those were on Death Row. At times, the term criminal justice may seem like an oxymoron. Its up to all within the system to make it work so the lady with the blindfold has

would like to bring attention to the fact that we are now charging our military personnel for food. I have a friend in the Navy. He had been in for eight months now. He is stationed in Virginia. He is charged $310 per month for food. He had been paying for food through boot camp. I wonder if Joe Biden or Congress pays for food, or are they above our military?

Emergency animal hospital earns heartfelt gratitude n April 28, my daughters dog, Cuddles O (breed Shi-Poo), was viciously attacked by a pit bull while she was walking
him in Hanover Township. The dog picked him up in his mouth and shook him like a little rag doll. My daughter and Cuddles do everything together and she was really upset by the traumatic event she had just witnessed. She called me hysterical, asking me to come to her home and help her. We transported Cuddles to the Plains Emergency Animal Hospital. When we arrived, the support staff and medical personnel immediately went into action. After an initial examination they advised us that Cuddles was in critical condition and that he needed to be stabilized. After waiting what seemed like forever, the doctor emerged to tell us that Cuddles had sustained at least ve broken ribs and had several puncture wounds that went into his chest cavity. There was concern that the injuries might have damaged his heart and lungs. A surgical team headed by Dr. McBrien was called to perform emergency surgery. There were no guarantees, but Cuddles means the world to my daughter so we agreed to have the hospital try to save his life. After hours of surgery we received the call advising that Cuddles had survived the surgery and was doing well. He was still not out of the woods so he had to stay at the hospital for several more days. Today, Cuddles is home with my daughter and doing great, thanks to the outstanding treatment and care he received at the Plains Emergency Animal Hospital. This team of professionals not only saved Cuddles life, they saved my daughter from suffering the deep anguish of losing her best friend. Thank you and God bless the Plains Emergency Animal Hospital staff and doctors.

Advocate works to raise awareness of autism T

hrough the years of journeying with autistic persons, I have found there remains discrimination and lack of awareness. It has been upsetting to hear people speak of non-verbal autistic in front of them as if they do not exist or are unaware. Some people have said, well, they do not look autistic. There are also those who falsely believe that because a person is non-verbal that they are lacking intellect or have nothing to say. There are those who wish to suppress the behaviors they deem as inappropriate rather than seeking to understand them and realize they may be the only way a person can communicate their needs, desires, or distress. It is for this reason that I have dedicated myself to autistic rights and acceptance. I have developed more compassionate relational approaches to support these persons. It is my hope that others will also adopt this approach so discrimination can be overcome and autistic persons can be supported in a dignied way. It is not to diminish the fact that autistic persons face many challenges in navigating through the mainstream, but we can be their guides in a respectful way. Autism is not a disease or an entity. It is not something that we must seek out to eradicate. Rather, it is a mode of being, an umbrella term to describe how one relates (or does not relate) to the world. If we look at autism as an entity, a thing,

ed her maintenance routines, as she has needed more frequent wheel alignments, she said. Her SUV has 130,000 miles on it and she uses it for daily commutes to Scranton and regular weekend trips to the Lehigh Valley. The potholes are just ridiculous, Lasko said. I dont know what the solution is but as soon as you cross the border (to another state) the roads are beautiful. Nearby, at the townships Turkey Hill, Tom Wasilowski had stopped for gas on his way home to Pittsburgh from Boston. He and his wife had just been talking about how, once they entered the state, it seemed road conditions deteriorated, he said. But it wasnt all bad for the travelers, he noted. Heading

N E W S
north on Interstate 81, it seemed road conditions were better than going south. He said that, considering all the bridges in the state, he thinks PennDOT does a decent job of maintaining them. An area distribution company owner said he has felt the pinch for his personal vehicle but not really on his eet. Mike Tomalis of Fran Tomalis & Son, Pittston Township, said the trucks are built to take a beating and his drivers know how to drive cautiously to ease wear on the box trucks they use to deliver to grocery stores and delicatessens in eastern Pennsylvania. If we were replacing tires every four or ve months, I think a red ag would go up, but weve been fortunate, Tomalis said. Larry Catanzaro, director of operations for trucking rm Kane is Able, said there are many moving parts to the trucking industry. Replacement parts are becoming more expensive, which adds to their growing expense budget, he said. To x the apparent worsening highway infrastructure, Catanzaro suggested a higher gas tax with more money set aside for upkeep and overhauls, if needed. Our thought would be put something into the fuel tax, Catanzaro said, and added that that way everyone bears the burden and pays for what they use. Were obviously willing to pay our fair share. I think itd validate the increase for everybody, Catanzaro said. ming. But there are other needed repairs that municipal ofcials say have not been given the green light. In Hanover Township, Manager John Sipper said the San Souci Parkway is suffering from heavy use and a lack of resurfacing, to the point that the old concrete roadway is showing through the black top. The San Souci needs work desperately, Sipper said, noting PennDOT was sent a letter alerting it to the problem and a response came suggesting the township inform the county planning commission for consideration on the long-range plan. Sipper said theres no doubt the San Souci is not being paved and maintained as it has been previously for lack of funding. In Wyoming, Boyer said that for the most part state roads, including Wyoming Avenue and Sixth and Eighth streets, are OK, though they do have some drainage and water runoff issues. Paving and potholes, I cant point my nger in that area, Boyer said. I think the interstates are another story, he said. Theyre pretty rough. Sipper, Cagle, Keating and Boyer all said when a pot hole is noticed, a call to PennDOT has led to them being lled quickly. I really cant take a shot at PennDOT for that, Boyer said.

cent of the states roads are in poor or mediocre condition and 25 percent of the states bridges are structurally decient. The reports solution called for a signicant boost in local, state and federal funding. Local ofcials said liquid fuels funds the money allocated by the state to municipalities to help with road maintenance has been steady or has even dropped in some instances, while the costs of fuel and road construction and equipment have gone up. Wilkes-Barre spokesman Drew McLaughlin said the liquid fuel funds often run out before the year does and the city has dipped in to its general fund budget to maintain roads annually. There needs to be more state and federal investment in infrastructure funding, he said. The costs to maintain, repair and reconstruct our aging infrastructure in some areas will continue to outpace the general municipal funds ability to nance it, which is already strained by health care, pension and other municipal services costs. He said several state projects are helping to alleviate trafc troubles in the city: the re-decking of the Veterans Memorial

That being said, there is always more work to be done, he said, and nothing has a more immediate economic impact upon the city than infrastructure projects. Wyoming Mayor Bob Boyer said he would like to see more money coming to municipalities for road maintenance. So too would Paul Keating, the administrator in Kingston, who said liquid fuels for four municipal roads amounted to about $11,000 this year, while KingsSome neighbors tried to make extra cash by selling cigarettes or candy in their garages.

There are major projects underway locally including: the Veterans Memorial Bridge project, a bridge and road reconstruction project ongoing along North River Street in Plains Township between the Cross Valley and Wilkes-Barre, and the Broad Street Corridor Project in Hazleton.

numbered 76 during a public conference Thursday at Kings College. Admission is free; his talk will last about 40 minutes and be followed by a questionand-answer session. I helped write this bill on behalf of 78 groups in the coalition, Baldinger said in a telephone interview Tuesday. This is the peoples legislation; we offered input and approved every part of it. This is our bill. As written, the bills would freeze school property taxes the rst year after being signed into law, then almost eliminate them except for a small percentage in most districts to pay that districts existing debt. Once the debt was paid off, that last remnant of property tax would disappear. That provision was designed to make sure taxpayers in frugal districts where debt was low or nonexistent do not have to pay for debt accrued by other districts, Baldinger said. To make up for the money lost in school property taxes, the state would increase personal income tax from 3.07 percent to to 4.34 percent, increase the state sales tax from 6 to 7 percent, and broaden the items subject to the sales tax, adding things such as candy, gum, newspapers, magazines, dry cleaning, laundry service, haircuts and food items not covered by the federal Women, Infants and Children food supplement program for pregnant and new mothers. Any increase in money to districts thereafter would be tied to the Consumer Price Index. If districts wanted more money than the annual increase, they would have to convince voters to approve a referendum raising the money through a local earned income tax or personal income tax. The bill bars reinstituting a property tax, while companion legislation calls for an amendment to the state Constitution making such a ban irrevocable. Baldinger and other proponents believe this effort has a better chance than past incarnations of the tax-shifting idea for two big reasons. First, its revenue neutral, raising enough money to replace every dollar districts will lose by eliminating property taxes, they say. Second, it deals only with where the money comes from without changing how its doled out or trying to tackle thorny side issues such as growing teacher pension fund costs or special-education costs. In fact, Baldinger said, the proposed tax shift could force the state to address such longsidestepped issues of equitable funding among districts. The change could also prompt a boom in house sales, as those people who rent might more readily afford a home when they dont get a tax bill along with the mortgage, Baldinger said. And it could lower rents if landlords nd themselves in steeper competition for tenants.

The bills have drawn bipartisan support in the Senate and House, with Republican David Argall, Mahanoy City, as lead sponsor in the Senate. Locally, Republican Lisa Baker, Lehman Township, and Democrat John Yudichak, Plymouth Township, are co-sponsors in the Senate. Area representatives co-sponsoring the House version include Karen Boback, R-Harveys Lake, Tarah Toohil, R-Hazleton, and Gerald Mullery, D-Newport Township. In a written statement citing how property taxes continue indenitely even when mortgages are paid off often hurting seniors on xed income the most Boback said she co-sponsored the bill because I realize its time to relieve the burden that escalating property taxes have on the most vulnerable residents in our district as well as across the entire commonwealth. Mullery has been a proponent of eliminating school property taxes since he won a seat in the House in 2011. He said the Republican co-sponsorship proves the voices of the people are being heard now more then ever. The Republican majority seems to have stalled every similar bill in committee. But each time that happens, more people complain, Mullery said. I believe it gains more support from the general population, Mullery said, and the controlling Republican Party will have to bring this to a committee vote or they will no longer be the controlling party. Baldinger particularly praised Yudichaks efforts in the Senate. Yudichak said he has some concerns about the proposal but wants to see it move forward because we need to have a conversation about property taxes. I think what weve seen is that property taxes may have made sense 150 years ago, but it doesnt make a lot of sense today, he said. It makes it very difcult, particularly on seniors. The new version of the bill addressed concerns that helped kill previous iterations, Yudichak said, including a green light on the nancial viability by the Pennsylvania Independent Fiscal Ofce. But Yudichak doubts the bill will get much attention until the fall. There are so many big pieces of legislation on the agenda, he said, citing proposals for privatization of liquor sales, funding for transportation repairs, and passing a budget by the end of July.

and a tug of nostalgia for home compelled him to return in the late 1980s, and he has remained since. I remember the Depression. It was rough, very rough, for the Eckley people, Gera said Tuesday as he clutched his two wooden walking canes. With the coal mine the lifeblood operating at bare minimum, the residents survived on the harvest from their gardens and fruit trees and heat from coal they picked bucket by bucket, he said. The entire village men, women and children ocked to the woods in the summer to pick huckleberries theyd sell to hucksters. Sometimes wed make two or three trips in one day, he said. Had it not been for the money from that, I dont know what we would have done.

history and treasures. The place was a gathering spot. Gera said he has only one other living sibling, a sister in Williamsport. John Gera, son of Georges late brother, Emil, paused to touch the oak stair railing inside the home. My dad built that railing when he was 15 years old using hand tools, said the Freeland resident, who was featured as a crying baby in The Molly Maguires. Since his porch is out of commission, the family patriarch plans to return to his picnic table for Eckleys Patch Town Days festival June 15 and 16. He is also worried about planting that must be done in his garden and wants to erect a sign so nobody swipes the chunks of coal he carefully piled up as a decoration in his yard. Gera also is searching for a Royal manual typewriter to preserve his recollections for the next generation. People are telling me I have to write a book, he said.

Footballs most feared sackmaster

His nickname belied his calling. David Deacon Jones was the most feared member of the Fearsome Foursome, the original sackmaster. Reggie White, Bruce Smith, Lawrence Taylor they all followed the lead set by Jones, who died Monday at 74. Deacon Jones was one of the greatest players in NFL history. Off the field, he was a true giant, said Redskins general manager Bruce Allen, whose father, George, coached Jones with the Los Angeles Rams. His passion and spirit will continue to inspire those who knew him. He was a cherished member of the Allen family and I will always consider him my big brother. Not only was Jones the main practitioner of the sack in his 14 pro seasons, he coined the term. He once compared bringing down quarterbacks to hog-tying them in a sack. He was smiling when he said it. Yet Jones never got the statistical credit for all those QB knockdowns; sacks didnt become an official statistic in the NFL until 1982. Jones retired after the 1974 season, having played 11 years with the Rams, two with the Chargers and one with the Redskins. Rams stats show Jones with 159 1/2 sacks for them and 173 1/2 for his career all unofficial, of course. Jones also was one of the most durable players, missing just five games in his pro career. He entered the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1980. He was an icon among the icons, Commissioner Roger Goodell said. Even with his fellow Hall of Famers, Deacon Jones held a special status. He was a hardcharging football player and the original sack artist who coined the term. He is

warmly regarded by his peers not only as one of the greatest players in NFL history, but also for his tremendous influence and sense of humor. Jones was held in such high esteem that when he made the leagues 75th anniversary all-time squad, it prompted former teammate and fellow Hall of Famer Jack Youngblood to say: Deacon Jones has been the most inspirational person in my football career. That sort of praise was typical for Jones, the anchor of the Fearsome FourSee JONES, Page 4B

MINERSVILLE Trailing by a seemingly insurmountable margin and on the brink of being swept out of the state semifinals, Holy Redeemer had to know its dream of a state championship was about to vanish. T h a t didnt matter to JerNORTHEASTERN emy Myslowski and the rest of REDEEMER the Royals. Instead of packing it in, Redeemer packed one more mighty punch before falling to Northeastern, 25-13, 25-14, 25-17 in a PIAA volleyball semifinal match at Minersville High School. In a state Eastern championship match filled with smashing hits, Myslowski delivered one more for the Royals with an emphatic cross-court kill. That was followed by an infraction on Northeastern. Suddenly, a 24-15 Northern lead in the third game was sliced to seven points. Even though we knew our run was probably over, we were bringing some high energy into the postseason, Myslowski said. We werent going to give that up. Instead, a large Northeastern contingent that rose in unison while gleefully shouting in anticipation of the point that would send the 20-1 Bobcats into Saturdays state championship had to sit for a bit.

Sixth-seeded Tsonga pulls upset over 17-time Slam champ

By HOWARD FENDRICH AP Tennis Writer

See REDEEMER, Page 4B

PARIS A point from losing the first set of his French Open quarterfinal, Roger Federer shanked a routine forehand, sending the ball 10 feet beyond the opposite baseline. The Court Philippe Chatrier crowd roared with approval, then loudly chanted the last name of Federers opponent, Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. That shot was a clear indication that Federer was hardly Federesque on this day. There

were plenty of others: He argued with the chair umpire about a call. He dumped overhead smashes into the net. And in a truly rare ungraceful moment, he failed to put a racket to or get out of the way of a backhand flip by a sliding Tsonga, instead getting hit on the back. All in all, Federer looked lost out there Tuesday against the sixth-seeded Tsonga, who pounded his way to a 7-5, 6-3, 6-3 victory over the 17-time

Grand Slam champion in a 1-hour, 51-minute mismatch remarkable for its lopsidedness and brevity. I struggled a little bit everywhere. To be honest, personally, Im pretty sad about the match and the way I played. But thats how it goes. I tried to figure things out, but it was difficult. And Jo does a good job keeping the pressure on, Federer said. He was just better in all areas, continued Federer, whose lone French Open title, in 2009,

allowed him to equal Pete Sampras then-record of 14 major championships. He returned better than I did. Served better than I did. I struggled to find my rhythm. While Federer quickly faced a big deficit Tuesday and never recovered, Serena Williams was able to get out of a much smaller spot of trouble. Like Federer, Williams is 31. Like Federer, shes won more

MOOSIC Coming off their worst loss in more than six years a day before, the RailRiders needed a win on Tuesday in the worst way to forget about the 15 runs and 16 hits allowed to Durham on Monday. S cranton/ Wilkes-Barres offense pounded out 12 hits, Caleb Cotham pitched effectively enough RAILRIDERS to earn his second win of the season CHIEFS and Dellin Betances picked up his first save in professional baseball as the RailRiders defeated Syracuse 6-4 at PNC Field. Melky Mesa and Addison Maruszak led the teams offense combining for five hits and producing four of the teams six runs including the first back-toback home runs in RailRiders history. We have a lot of veterans on this team so youre going to have a game like you did (Monday) and its not fun, believe me, but the best thing you can do is forget about it and focus on the next day when the games over, Maruszak said. The night started off in favor of the Chiefs as they put up four runs in the top of the third to take a 4-0 lead. Cotham cruised through the first two innings needing just 28 pitches to get through them. But he ran into trouble in the third as Syracuse used some luck as well. After Brian Jeroloman got jammed and singled with one out, Eury Perez had a nicely placed bunt single to third baseman Ronnier Mustelier. Chris Rahl followed with a three-run home run that kept carrying to left and eventually went into the stands. The next two batters reached before Cotham got the second out of the inning. But Mike Costanzo brought in another run with a single for the 4-0 advantage. The Chiefs batted around in the frame with five hits, scoring

Players linked to Biogenesis could face 100-game ban

By PHIL ROGERS Chicago Tribune

CHICAGO The 2013 baseball season could be unlike any in history, with an unprecedented wave of suspensions possible by the All-Star break in the mushrooming Biogenesis scandal. Ryan Braun, the 2011 National League MVP who beat the rap after one positive test for performance-enhancing drugs, and Alex Rodriguez are the most prominent of 20-plus players who could face season-ending suspensions if Commissioner Bud Selig and his enforcers get their way. They appear to have already managed one feat few thought they could, flipping Tony Bosch, the central figure at the Miami anti-aging clinic tied to PED use by major leaguers. ESPNs Outside the Lines is reporting Bosch has been persuaded to cooperate with Major League Baseballs investigation, corroborating a series of records MLB has had for about a month. ESPN also is reporting MLB will seek unprecedented 100-game suspensions for the players, claiming that first and second offenses were committed when players obtained banned substances from the clinic and subsequently lied to MLB investigators about their involvement. Players tied to the Biogenesis scandal include the following: Braun, who at 29 is at the height of his career and owed about $133 million from the Brewers through 2020.

Rodriguez, 37, who has been sidelined all season after hip surgery and previously acknowledged a positive test in 2003, when testing was supposed to be anonymous. He has 647 career home runs, 2,901 hits and is owed about $105 million from the Yankees through 2017. The team might try to void his contract if he is suspended. Nelson Cruz, the slugging right fielder for the Rangers, one of baseballs best teams. Jhonny Peralta, the Tigers shortstop enjoying a renaissance season. Everth Cabrera, the 26-yearold Padres shortstop who is one of the NLs best young players. Bartolo Colon, the 2005 American League Cy Young Award winner, who is 6-2 for the Athletics. Melky Cabrera, the MVP of the 2012 All-Star Game. He signed a two-year contract with the Blue Jays after a positive test ended his tenure with the Giants, who won the World Series without him. Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano, who is on track to be the most widely pursued free agent next season. He has been linked only indirectly through Sonia Cruz, a spokeswoman for his foundation. Nationals left-hander Gio Gonzalez. He was included in the Biogenesis records first reported by the Miami New Times but reportedly has cooperated with MLB investigators, demonstrating he purchased only legal substances from the clinic.

Philadelphia Phillies Michael Young is safe on a steal at second base as Miami Marlins shortstop Adeiny Hechavarria catches the throw during the fourth inning Tuesday in Philadelphia.

Mayberry grand slam lifts Phils in 11 innings

The Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA John Mayberry Jr. hit a grand slam with two outs in the bottom of the 11th inning after his tying shot in the 10th, and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Miami Marlins 7-3 Tuesday night. Mayberry tied it off Steve Cishek in the 10th after Juan Pierre scored on a wild pitch in the top of the inning. Domonic Brown reached on a fielding error by pitcher Edgar Olmos (0-1) with one out in the 11th and advanced on pinch-hitter Kyle Kendricks sacrifice. After Freddy Galvis was intentionally walked, Erik Kratz walked to load the bases. Mayberry followed with a line-drive homer to left. He circled the bases and was mobbed by teammates at the plate. Michael Stutes (1-0) pitched a scoreless inning for the win.

Reed Johnson with a pitch, bringing Simmons to the plate. Simmons, who had three hits and a walk, sent a long fly ball to the gap in right-center. Uggla jogged calmly around third base with the winning run before the Braves raced to celebrate with Simmons near second base. Upton hit a two-run homer for Atlanta. Pittsburghs Gaby Sanchez and Pedro Alvarez also connected.

NEW YORK David Phelps followed the worst start of his young career with his best, allowing a mere infield single in six shutout innings and getting home run help from Mark Teixeira as the New York Yankees beat the Cleveland Indians 4-3 Tuesday night. Teixeira hit his second homer of the season since coming off the disabled list last Friday. His three-run shot made it 4-0 in the third inning, and came a day after he lined a grand slam against Cleveland. Drew Stubbs hit a three-run homer in the seventh off Joba Chamberlain. But Nick Swisher lined into a key double play in the eighth and the Indians dropped their third in a row and seventh straight on the road. Phelps (4-3) neatly bounced back from his previous outing, when he gave up five runs while getting just one out against the New York Mets.

homered for the Red Sox, who scored at least one run in every inning through the first seven and hit for the cycle as a team in the second. The Red Sox finished with 19 hits, eight of them doubles. DETROIT Prince Fielder homered and drove in four runs, and the Detroit Tigers handed Tampa Bays Matt Moore his first loss of the year. Fielder also hit a two-run single that capped a four-run second inning for the Tigers. Moore (8-1) got only six outs while allowing six runs, seven hits and six walks. He was pitching on three days rest after his previous start was limited to one inning because of rain. Anibal Sanchez (6-5) allowed a run and four hits in seven innings. He struck out nine with one walk. HOUSTON Danny Valencia homered, Chris Tillman threw seven solid innings and the Baltimore Orioles ended Houstons six-game winning streak. Brandon Barnes had a solo homer in the sixth for the Astros, who entered the game with the longest winning streak in the majors.

WASHINGTON Steve Lombardozzis sacrifice fly in the ninth Tuesday night gave the Washington Nationals their first late-inning comeback win of the season, capping a two-run rally for a victory over the New York Mets.

and pulled within 13-9 on Morrisons dink midway through the final set. They brought some heat back at us, too, Stephen Braswell said. It was just kind of go out there and have fun with it. In the end, though, the fun run Redeemer put together while becoming the first District 2 team since Tunkhannocks 1972 state title team to reach the PIAA semifinal round came to an end. Despite switching strategy from pure power hits to dinks and dunks, nothing seemed to swing the tide for the Royals. They definitely started picking things up, Leahigh said. We tried changing things up. Then we kind of went back to swinging and we kept getting blocked. That doesnt mean a seasonending loss will stand in the way of a memorable season for the Royals. Im glad we went out playing our game, Myslowski said. We played the best we could. Thats all you can ever ask for.

Were not going to roll over, Holy Redeemer coach Jack Kablick said. If youre going to do that, you might as well stay home. Ultimately, though, Northeasterns Phillip White pounded home the match-ending point with an crunching spike, making Redeemers last stand at states short-lived. That was the last of many hard hits that took 16-2 Redeemer out of the state tournament one step before the state final. Theres no shame in losing to Northeastern, said Holy Redeemer hitter Brendan Leahigh, who finished with a teamhigh eight kills. Theyre hot right now, theyve been hot. We lost to a better team today, no two ways about it. Northeastern made that clear from the start. Riding the powerful return game based around big hitters Stephen Braswell, Casey Winand, Reese Devilbiss and

Malik Jefferson, the Bobcats dominated the action in the first two games, winning by 12 and then 10 points. They used the leaping ability of Jefferson to deal with Redeemers giant 6-7 middle hitters Mike Prociak and Mike Morrison, holding Prociak to seven kills and Morrison to four. We played our brand of ball tonight, Braswell said. That included plenty of pounding, led by senior Stephen Braswells match-high 12 kills. But it was the setting of his freshman brother Luke Braswell, who finished with 22 assists, five kills and a block, that really flustered Redeemer. They had a setter we couldnt read, Kablick said. The setter was maybe the best Ive seen in the last three, four years. Their gameplan was obviously to stay away from our two 6-7s, get it to the outside and just pound it. They did a good job of that. The Royals tried to pound right back. Prociak made three of his kills during the third game and Myslowski added two as Redeemer held and early 5-4 lead (6). Williams is 5-0 against Errani. She forces you to play at a very high level to have any chance of winning. Ill have to hit shots hard and deep and make her move, said Errani, who was 0-28 against women ranked in the top five before Tuesday. As soon as you hit a short ball, Serena gets right on top of you, and she has enough power to end the point. Next for Tsonga will be No. 4 David Ferrer, who stopped the wild ride of No. 32 Tommy Robredo 6-2, 6-1, 6-1 in an allSpanish quarterfinal. Robredo won each of his previous three matches despite dropping the first two sets, the first man since 1927 to do that a Grand Slam tournament. I wasnt 100 percent ready to fight on Tuesday after so many lengthy matches, Robredo said, adding: And playing with a guy like David, who is a machine, its very tough to be like that. Ferrer reached his sixth major semifinal; he has yet to win one. Noting that Tsonga so easily beat Federer, Ferrer said: I was a bit surprised. Federer hadnt lost in straight sets before the semifinals at any Grand Slam tournament since a third-round defeat against Gustavo Kuerten in the 2004 French Open. Starting a month later, when he won Wimbledon, Federer began a stretch of nearly eight full years in which he was unbeaten in Grand Slam quarterfinals, reaching the semifinals at a record 23 major tournaments in a row. Since that run ended, though, quarterfinal exits are becoming a regular occurrence: He has lost at that stage in five of the past 13 Slams, twice to Tsonga, who was the runnerup at the 2008 Australian Open and is trying to give France its first mens champion at Roland Garros since Yannick Noah 30 years ago. Everybodys expecting a lot from me, Tsonga said. The other quarterfinal setback against Tsonga came at Wimbledon in 2011, when Federer lost for the first time in 179 matches after taking the opening two sets. Hes got a big game. He takes time away from you, Federer said. He can change defense to offense very quickly. Similar traits to what I have, I guess, really.

four runs and Cotham had to throw 34 pitches to get out of the pickle. After that inning, the 25-yearold Cotham settled down. He needed just 37 pitches to get through the next three innings. He lasted six innings giving up four runs on nine hits. He lowered his ERA from 7.99 at the beginning of the game and picked up his second win of the season. After a rough start to his TripleA career allowing 21 runs in four starts, hes picked up wins in consecutive starts. It was some tough luck but I probably couldve made some better pitches, better spots. Thats just how it goes some times. The hitter will find a spot, Cotham said. Just got to roll with it and get to the next batter, make a pitch and cant really control what happens after I make that pitch. That inning was tough but it was nice to come back out next inning and put up a zero. A two-out rally in the bottom of the third helped the RailRiders cut the deficit in half to 4-2 as they strung together four straight singles. Hits from Ronnier Mustelier (2-for-4) and Dan Johnson (1-for-4) plated the two crossing the plate. Thats how you win championships is two-out RBIs, two-out hits, Maruszak said. That was huge and thats what the top of the lineup is there for. And the bottom of the order came through big as well with Mesa hitting sixth and Maruszak seventh. In the bottom of the fourth, Mesa hit the first pitch he saw from Jeff Mandel and drove it over the wall in left field for his

team-leading eighth shot of the season. Maruszak followed suit on the very next pitch landing in a nearby location for his first this year, which also extended his hitting streak to nine games. Mesa and Maruszak were at it again in the sixth helping the RailRiders take the lead. Mesa led off the frame with a single then stole second. He scored on a triple from Maruszak to pull the team ahead, 5-4. Alberto Gonzalez single scored Maruszak for a 6-4 advantage. The RailRiders were also 4-for-9 with runners in scoring position. After Cotham was pulled, Betances entered and was dominant pitching the final three frames. The only blemish on his line was a leadoff single in the ninth inning. Other than that, he struck out four and didnt walk anyone. Today was one of those days where the team had a lead and Im just trying to hold that lead and do the best I can, Betances said. For us a team we needed this game because weve had a bad run and the last couple games we had to use a lot out of the bullpen. So Im just trying to hold that lead and give the bullpen a rest.

than a dozen Grand Slam titles, 15. And like Federer, only one of those trophies came at Roland Garros, in 2002. Trailing in the third set against 2009 French Open winner Svetlana Kuznetsova, the No. 1-seeded Williams won five games in a row en route to a 6-1, 3-6, 6-3 victory that put her back in the semifinals at Paris after a decades absence. Williams had lost four consecutive quarterfinals at Roland Garros in 2004, 2007, 2009 (to Kuznetsova), 2010 and so when she was serving while down 2-0 in the final set Tuesday, I thought, you know, Cant go out like this again. That was a pivotal game, featuring 16 points and three break chances for Kuznetsova, who flubbed the last with a drop shot that floated wide. After finally holding in that game with an inside-out forehand winner as Kuznetsova stumbled to the clay, Williams broke right away with a backhand winner that had her yelling and shaking her fist. Unbelievable competitor, Kuznetsova said. She turns on (her) game when she needs it. Kuznetsova winced a few times after slow serves, and said afterward she strained an abdominal muscle earlier in the tournament. I did push her to the limit, I think, today, even without my serve, Kuznetsova said. I was serving like, I dont know, a grandmother. It was the first challenge of the tournament for Williams, who lost 10 games against Kuznetsova after dropping that same number across her first four rounds combined. When you dont have tough matches, once you have one, then you are a bit shocked, you know? You dont react well immediately all the time, said Williams coach, Patrick Moratouglou. But Im very proud of her, because she was really, really in a bad situation. Since a first-round exit at Roland Garros a year ago, Williams is 72-3, and shes currently on a career-long 29-match winning streak. In Thursdays semifinals, shell face No. 5 Sara Errani, last years runnerup to Maria Sharapova. Errani reached the semifinals for the third time in the last five major tournaments by beating No. 4 Agnieszka Radwanska 6-4, 7-6

Quite a compliment. This is a guy who reached 10 straight Grand Slam finals from 2005-07, winning eight titles. He also appeared in eight major finals from 200810, winning four. But since that run ended, Federer has played in two of the last 13 Slam title matches, winning one, Wimbledon last year. He actually began well Tuesday, leading 4-2. But thats where he got broken for the first of six times by Tsonga, who let four match points slip away in a quarterfinal loss to Novak Djokovic at Roland Garros in 2012. Give him credit: Hes playing in his home Grand Slam, in the quarterfinals, against the all-time great, and was a break down at the start of the first set. And then was able to stick with it, said Roger Rasheed, who began coaching Tsonga last October. Federer struggled in the fourth round Sunday against another Frenchman, 15thseeded Gilles Simon, taking an awkward tumble and falling behind 2-1 in sets. But Federer said after Tuesdays loss he was fine physically. His game was not fine, not at all, on this day. And Tsonga took full advantage. Federer had won nine of their previous 12 matches. When they met at the net for a handshake after this one, Tsonga kiddingly thanked Federer for letting him win this time, and both men chuckled. Sports, its beautiful, because you can always do something. Even if you play, you know, the best player in the world you have a chance, Tsonga said. Because the guy in front of you (has) two legs, two arms, one head.

some. Jones made the Pro Bowl every year from 1964-70 and played in eight overall. He combined with Hall of Famer Merlin Olsen, Rosey Grier and Lamar Lundy on a defensive line that at times was unblockable. Olsen died in 2010 at 69 and Lundy died in 2007 at 71. Grier, 80, is the only surviving member of the Fearsome Foursome. Deacon was an incredible team guy and he always wanted to win, he wanted all of us to run the race together, Grier said Tuesday. We didnt play run, we played pass and we all came off the ball together. The whole point was to get in the backfield fast and mess everything up. They couldnt stop the Fearsome Foursome - we made a great contribution to the game of football. George Allen, who coached the Fearsome Foursome, called Jones the greatest defensive end of modern football. The Allen family had Jones present George Allen for his Hall of Fame induction in 2002, yet another example of the regard in which Jones was held. Not only to coin the term sack, but just his personality of being a defensive lineman; his charisma and his presence, Smith, the career sacks leader by official count with 200, told NFL Network. When he walked into the room, he commanded respect, whether it was on the playing field or his choice of words. This is going to be a great loss for all of the football nation, the fans and particularly those who loved him dearly like myself. After he retired, Jones appeared in some TV commercials and later began an eponymous foundation in Anaheim Hills, Calif., that encourages youngsters from inner-city schools to become leaders in their community. The Redskins said Jones died of natural causes. In 2009, he told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch he had undergone lung surgery and received a pacemaker. That year, the Rams retired his jersey number, 75. As for that nickname, well, when Jones joined the Rams out of Mississippi Valley State as a 14th-round draft pick in 1961, he wanted to make himself memorable. Eventually, hed do so every game on the field, terrorizing blockers, runners and passers. At first, though, he believed he needed to stand out on the roster. No one would remember a player named David Jones there are a thousand David Joneses in the phone book, he said. I picked out Deacon because it has a religious connotation and it would be remembered in the violent pro football world. When the Rams sent out my player questionnaire, I simply listed my name as Deacon Jones. From then on, thats what I was.

Callahan set to call play for Cowboys

Little League museum hosts rare Ruth jersey

By GENARO C. ARMAS Associated Press

IRVING, Texas Bill Callahan is replacing coach Jason Garrett as the play-caller for the Dallas Cowboys. So said owner Jerry Jones on Tuesday. Even Callahan himself confirmed it. All of which served only to get Garrett to dig in a little deeper in his refusal to publicly acknowledge a change in the role hes had since Jones hired him as offensive coordinator in 2007. There is no real advantage for us to reveal whos calling the plays explicitly, and how were going to do it, in early June, Garrett said. Its just the way I feel about it. We have a plan in place. Weve had a plan in place for a long, long time. I dont want to get into that plan much further than I already have. Garrett kept play-calling duties when he replaced head coach Wade Phillips halfway through the 2010 season. Jones wanted Phillips to be the defensive play-caller when he hired him, and he wanted the same for Garrett on the offensive side. But Jones dropped the first hint during Senior Bowl practices in January that a change was in the works. He even specifically mentioned Callahan, who called plays for the Oakland Raiders as offensive coordinator and head coach from 1998

to 2003. Callahan, who is offensive coordinator and offensive line coach, has consistently deferred to Garrett when the topic came up this offseason, but finally relented when told that Jones had said the decision to let Callahan call plays was made weeks ago. Callahan looked to be the one calling plays during offseason workouts, and Jones said anyone looking at practice can get a pretty good idea of how its going there. Its a real honor and a great responsibility, Callahan said. Im flattered to be part of this and take on the additional responsibilities of calling the plays in the course of the game. Garrett has faced the question of whether he would give up play-calling duties because of poor game management decisions in several losses the past two seasons. The Cowboys finished 8-8 and missed the playoffs both times. Callahans offense had a rough season in his debut with the Raiders, but finished no worse than eighth in points and yards per attempt each of the next four years. Callahan also spent four years as head coach at Nebraska. I think hes an outstanding coach with the kind of experience that I really think is good for us right now, Jones said.

The fact that he has been head coach, college, as well as in the NFL, you bring all of that to bear. Garrett said his refusal to announce the change had nothing to do with whether he agreed with it. Im completely on board with all decisions we make, Garrett said. We make collective decisions in this organization. We always have and we always will. While playfully acknowledging that he wasnt thrilled with

his owner revealing the playcalling decision, Garrett said his relationship with Jones has never been better. Hes an outstanding owner because he cares a great deal about this football team and making the NFL and the Dallas Cowboys great, Garrett said. When youre in an environment like that, working for a guy like that, the pedal is down and thats a good thing. The pedal is down for all of us.

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT One of the centerpieces of Little League Baseballs newly-renovated museum arrived Tuesday via armored truck before being carried in through a side door by a guard in a bulletproof vest, with police officers watching nearby. The uniform worn by Babe Ruth in 1934 during a barnstorming tour of Japan is one precious piece of sports memorabilia. Soon, it will be on display to the public at the museum thats just a short walk up a hill from the pristine fields where the Little League World Series is played each August. The gray wool jersey a red 3 stitched on the back is on loan from a donor who is remaining anonymous, Little League vice president and museum executive director Lance Van Auken said. Its just something that came out of the blue for us in the last several months, Van Auken said. Were just delighted to have it. Accompanied by gray pants and dirt-stained stirrup socks, the jersey is considered the only full uniform still around that was worn by baseball icon Ruth, according to Van Auken. He also thought it would be the first time the uniform would be on public display. But itll be behind what Van Auken called a double-thick, shadow-resistent glass case,

trained in the sights of security cameras. Van Auken declined to disclose the uniforms current value, but did say it was insured for a seven-digit amount. It was sold at an auction in 2005 for roughly $771,000. Steven Costello, a vice president with New Rochelle, N.Y.based Steiner Sports Memorabilia, said the uniform would only increase in value though it was difficult to determine the exact current worth. Having a full uniform set also helps its value, he said. There was a time when your grandfather had seen Babe Ruth play, Costello said in a phone interview. Were getting into an era where very few people have been to a Yankees game and seen Babe Ruth. But here it is 70 years later and people are positioning to try to get any Babe Ruth item. Last year, a circa 1920 Yankees jersey worn by The Bambino sold at an auction for more than $4.4 million, considered a record for any item of sports memorabilia. By comparison, the 1934 jersey at the Little League museum might be small change. But it means a lot to Little League, which is re-opening its renovated museum next week. Ruth hit 13 homers during the 18-game barnstorming tour of Japan that also included fellow Hall of Famers Lou Gehrig and Jimmie Foxx, among others.

Steelers concerned as Adams recovers from stabbing

By WILL GRAVES AP Sports Writer

LOCAL ROUNDUP

PITTSBURGH Pittsburgh Steelers offensive tackle Mike Adams will play football again, perhaps as early as late July when the team reports for training camp. Yet his teammates say the late night assault the 23-yearold endured early Saturday morning in the citys South Side district should serve as a warning about the dangers of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, even if you are 6-foot-7 and 345-pounds like Adams. There aint nobody whos too big, Steelers linebacker Larry Foote said. Once youve got a weapon involved, everybodys the same size then. Adams underwent surgery after sustaining stab wounds to his leg and forearm during an attempted carjacking. His recovery time is expected to last 6-8 weeks, meaning he will miss the final week of organized team activities and next weeks minicamp.

Police arrested suspects Dquay Means, 26, and Michael Paranay, 25, on Monday and charged them with attempted homicide, aggravated assault and conspiracy. The search for a third suspect is ongoing and Foote hopes the crime leads city officials to up the police presence in the popular bar district not far from the teams headquarters. Foote added he thinks the incident should serve as a wakeup call for players to be aware of their surroundings and avoid questionable areas at night. I would say that nothing ever good happens after 12 oclock, Foote said. But you should be able to be safe. You shouldnt be alone, and stuff happens. This is the type of world we live in today. Adams is penciled in as the starting right tackle but will be spelled by second-year lineman Kelvin Beachum while he rehabs. Its not exactly the way Beachum wanted to get back to his old job. Beachum started

five games at right tackle at the end of the 2012 season when Adams was sidelined with an ankle injury. The Steelers plan to use him as a utility lineman this year and even have him taking snaps at center. Hes currently on hiatus from that job, however, as he handles Adams usual post. The two are good friends and Beachum allowed he was shaken by the crime. Its been difficult this week with him not here, Beachum said. The two have locker stalls next to each other and leaned on one another during a sometimes bumpy 2012 as a series of injuries to the line forced them to quickly adapt to new roles. Beachum impressed the coaching staff so much the Steelers opted to let Doug Legursky who started at center in the 2011 Super Bowl walk as a free agent. Beachum has spent time with former Pittsburgh lineman Tunch Ilkin to get comfortable

at different spots along the line. That includes snapping the ball for the first time in his life. You do some things, just messing around, but not taking it as seriously as Im taking it right now, Beachum said. So, thats my biggest challenge, and Im attacking it. All that moving around can get confusing yet Beachum understands finding a way to be versatile is the key to extending his NFL career. He made the final cut last summer as a seventh-round pick out of SMU, where he was a four-year starter. His 6-2, 303-pound frame is perhaps better suited to the interior line and hes trying to get comfortable working in a confined space. It takes some thinking, but like Coach (Mike) Tomlin says, if you know things and understand what youre doing, you wont have to think, Beachum said. So, its all about getting to that point where theres no thinking involved. Its just playing.

Up 2-0, Boston returns home with chance to sweep all-star laden Pittsburgh
By HOWARD ULMAN AP Sports Writer

BOSTON Sidney Crosby and the potent Penguins have been punchless. Pittsburgh led the NHL in scoring in the regular season. It averaged 4.27 goals per game in the first two rounds of the playoffs. And it poured in 13 goals in the last two games of the Eastern Conference semifinals. Since then? No addition necessary. The Penguins have just one goal in two losses on their home ice to the Boston Bruins. To play there again this season, they must win Wednesday or Friday and avoid what seemed so improbable just a few days ago being swept in the best-of-seven conference finals. Right now, were not liking the picture, down 0-2. Theyre in control, Penguins coach Dan Bylsma said. I dont think were frustrated by the fact that we havent scored as much as (the fact that) theyre getting up leads, especially in Game 2. The Bruins won the opener 3-0 but led just 1-0 after two periods. The second game was much different. They rolled to a 4-1 lead after one period and remained aggressive in finishing off their 6-1 rout. The Penguins effort waned as the game went on. I didnt do anything, didnt change anything. It felt like every time we had a puck that was bouncing, we ended up giving it away, Crosby said. We gave them the game. We didnt really do anything to give ourselves a chance to win. Combine that with the Bruins high level of play disciplined on defense, organized on offense and the pre-series chatter about the Penguins being favorites seems like so much nonsense. But any talk that Boston will have an easy path to the Stanley Cup finals is just as premature. Were going to have to play even better than we did because theyre going to be desperate, Bostons David Krejci said.

At press time, the game between the Los Angeles Kings and the Chicago Blackhawks was still in progress.

EDITORS NOTE

With a day off to ponder their problems and work at eliminating them, the Penguins offense could resurface. Its about what we do in the next game, Boston defenseman Andrew Ference said, not about patting ourselves on the back for whats already happened. Winning the first two games is a good start but doesnt always lead to a good finish. Both teams have overcome 2-0 deficits and gone on to win Stanley Cups. In 2009, the Penguins dropped two games at Detroit by a combined score of 6-2 then took four out of five to clinch their first championship since 1992. In 2011, the Bruins lost two games of the opening round at home against Montreal, then won the next two on the road and captured the series on an overtime goal in Game 7. In the finals, they got off to the same poor start, losing two in Vancouver, but then won their first title since 1972 with a 4-0 road win in Game 7. But in the previous season, the Bruins won the first three games of the Eastern semifinals over Philadelphia then lost the next four. We have a large group of guys that have gone through this and been in that situation on both sides of the coin, Ference said. You can really lean on your past experience and not just talk about what could happen, because weve done it all. I think with this team, whether its coming back or having teams come back on us, weve all seen it together and we all know certain lessons that weve learned. Theyve also seen how powerful Pittsburghs offense can be. James Neal, Chris Kunitz, Pascal Dupuis and Crosby were among the NHLs top 17 in goals per game this season. Crosby was the leader in assists per game.

And Crosby and Kris Letang were the top two in points per game. You dont have a choice but to respect that team that youre playing against, because they are a pretty potent team. Things can change pretty quickly in this game, Boston coach Claude Julien said. I dont think theres any comfort level in our team right now. The Bruins have stymied the Penguins offense with pressure the length of the ice. A puck carrier gets past one forward then must contend with another, then a defenseman and, finally, Boston goaltender Tuukka Rask. I think its pretty obvious that we have layers, Julien said. Our guys are committed to come back and just making sure that theres layer after layer that make it hard for them to get to our net. Its been relatively easy for the Bruins to get to the Penguins goal, whether Tomas Vokoun or Marc-Andre Fleury is trying to protect it. Fleury replaced Vokoun after Krejci, the NHL postseason leading scorer, gave Boston a 3-0 lead at 16:31 of the first

Monday night. have to get better. We gave up the first goal both games and, from there, everyone is trying to do it on their own, Vokoun said, its just not going to work. Bylsma hasnt said who will start Wednesday. I think theres going to be some changes to our lineup, he said, and some of our combinations, our lines. No need for the Bruins to change anything. All four lines have been productive. The defensive pairings have been strong. And Rask has been outstanding, stopping 55 of 56 shots in the series. Overall, the Bruins have won seven of their last eight games with a 30-15 scoring advantage. The Penguins also have been unbelievable the other way. Who would have expected an offense with Crosby, Letang and Evgeni Malkin to be so awful? We know that were looked upon to score and produce, Crosby said. We have to find ways to create chances and put the puck in the net. Im not going to sit here and say its Rask or anything theyre doing. We

Thats the way it is.

NBA
Continued from Page 1B

they are similar versus how they are dissimilar, said ESPN analyst Jeff Van Gundy, a former NBA coach who is part of the broadcast team for the series that opens Thursday in Miami. They are both going to the Hall of Fame. They both have tremendous respect from the coaches they coach against, and they both have a level of humility that I believe shows NBA coaching in the most positive light possible. Spoelstra is in the finals for the third straight year and is looking for a second consecutive championship. Popovich is going for his fifth title, the last of the ones currently in his collection coming over James and the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2007, and could join Phil Jackson as the only coaches to win championships in three different decades. So far, only Jackson, Red Auerbach, John Kundla and Pat Riley Spoelstras mentor and boss in Miami have five rings as a head coach. Maybe I dont show it the way I should, but its pretty special, Popovich said, in a rare moment of near-sheepishness, after his team beat Memphis and won the West title for a fifth time. Im just really proud of the group the way they worked all year long to get there, and Im sure that weve been a team thats probably been written off like theyve had their day. Spoelstra took over for Riley five seasons ago, has won nearly

twice as many games as hes lost, and has endured a constant circus of distractions ever since the Heat acquired James and Chris Bosh to play alongside Dwyane Wade in 2010. San Antonio hasnt had anywhere near that sort of scrutiny. By now, Spoelstra doesnt even notice what he calls the noise. Even in the din of an Eastern Conference championship celebration on Monday night actually during the trophy presentation ceremony Spoelstra found his mind drifting away from the grind of facing the Indiana Pacers and onto the next challenge, this duel with the Spurs for the NBA title. Its one of those few times in competitive team sports youre not thinking about tomorrow, youre not thinking about the previous games, youre not thinking about what possibly may happen, youre not thinking about the reward. All youre thinking about is the desperation of that moment, Spoelstra said. And then It probably hit me right about then, and it was the ohh type moment, Spoelstra said. We have to get our act together in the next 48 hours. They are a great organization. I think the two organizations from afar have always respected each other for similar foundations and culture. The coaches have items designed to inspire players in their respective locker rooms, a famous quote about a stonecutter for the Spurs, a replica of the championship trophy with the words All In emblazoned on it for the Heat.

Spurs Leonard eyes matchup with LeBron

SAN ANTONIO Hours away from drawing the toughest defensive assignment of his two-year career with the San Antonio Spurs, Kawhi Leonard wasnt feverishly taking mental notes of how to guard LeBron James. The second-year pro was simply relaxing at home Monday night, watching Miami rout the Indiana Pacers 99-76 to set up a showdown with San Antonio in the NBA Finals. Seeing how Paul George and Lance Stephenson defended James wasnt as important to Leonard as the outcome. I was just laying (down), seeing who we were going to play, he said. Leonard means no disrespect. He is just happy to know who the Spurs will play after a weeks wait following their sweep of the Memphis Grizzlies in the Western Conference finals. The 6-foot-7 Leonard will draw the primary defensive assignment against James, the reigning NBA Finals MVP and two-time league MVP who is averaging 26.2 points, 7.3 rebounds and 6.4 assists in the playoffs. James is also shooting 51 perBy RAUL DOMINGUEZ Associated Press

cent overall and 39 percent on 3-pointers. Its just a great challenge for me to try to help my team win by playing good defense on him, Leonard said. I just accept the challenge and am ready to play. Facing a player on a hot streak isnt new to San Antonio this postseason following showdowns with Golden States Stephen Curry and Memphis Zach Randolph. After averaging 24 points and 10 assists in an upset of the Denver Nuggets, sweet-shooting Curry was held to 18.2 points and 6 assists against the Spurs excluding a 44-point, 11-assist effort in a Game 1 loss by the Warriors. Randolph averaged 18.4 points and 10.8 rebounds while bullying the Oklahoma City Thunder in the paint, but was limited to 11 points and 12 rebounds against the Spurs. His production included a twopoint, seven-rebound effort in a Game 1 loss to San Antonio. In some respect, the Spurs are facing a hybrid of Curry and Randolph in the 6-foot-8, 250-pound James. Hes great on offense and de-

fense, said Leonard, who has a 7-3 wingspan. He can pass, he can shoot the ball, gets offensive rebounds and defensive rebounds and he can guard the best player on the other team. While Leonard will be James primary defender, the Spurs will attempt to move him toward defensive help in the hope he gives up the ball. Its a strategy that helped San Antonio limit opponents to 44.2 percent shooting, which was eighth in the league. But James isnt the only player the Spurs know they will need a group mentality to defend, starting with All-Stars Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. Theyve got more than just the big fella, San Antonio guard Danny Green said. They are a great team. There is a reason they won last year, and they also added some pieces this year. On paper they have a really good team. Obviously they havent been playing as well as of late, but they have so many shooters surrounding the Big 3 they are a mismatch problem for any team. There was speculation that Miami was vulnerable consid-

ering Wade was battling a knee injury and Bosh was struggling offensively, leading to a Game 7 against a young Pacers team. Spurs forward Tim Duncan was stunned by that assertion. I dont know how to answer that question, Duncan said. I will know that when they stand in front of us if that be the case, but as of right now they are still the defending champs and the best team in the regular season. Wade dismissed a lot of those notions with 21 points and nine rebounds Monday night to lead Miami to its third consecutive NBA Finals. Hes an All-Star, Green said of Wade. I dont think it surprises anyone what hes capable of doing. He obviously hasnt been shooting as well, and neither has Chris bosh, but we know what theyre capable of. Any given night they can come out and give a game like that. Good players do big things on big stages. We expected them to do that last night and we expect them to come out in the Finals and be playing their best basketball.

IN BRIEF Slots revenue down slightly

The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board reported a slight decrease in gross slot machine revenue in May compared to last May of .57 percent, or about $1 million. Statewide, at the 11 casinos in operation, $211.2 million was reported last month compared to $212.4 million collected during May of last year. Only four casinos reported increases year-to-year: Valley Forge Casino Resort, Parx Casino in Bensalem, Sands Casino Resort in Bethlehem and Rivers Casino in Pittsburgh. Locally, Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs in Plains Township saw a drop from $19.6 million to $19.5 million while Mount Airy Casino Resort in Monroe County dropped 4.16 percent from $12.9 million to $12.4 million.

Watchdog: IRS enjoyed luxury rooms at conference

WASHINGTON Already under siege, the Internal Revenue Service was cited by a government watchdog for a $4.1 million training conference featuring luxury rooms and free drinks, even as conservative gures told Congress Tuesday they had been abused for years while seeking tax-exempt status. A total of 132 IRS ofcials received room upgrades at the 2010 conference in Anaheim, Calif., according to the report being released by J. Russell George, the Treasury inspector general for tax administration. One ofcial stayed ve nights in a room that regularly goes for $3,500 a night, Georges report said, and another stayed four nights in a room that regularly goes for $1,499 a night. The agency paid a at daily fee of $135 per hotel room, it said, but the upgrades were part of a package deal that added to the overall cost of the conference. Without the upgrades, the IRS could have negotiated a lower room rate, as required by agency procedures. The inspector generals report was surfacing as the IRS came under re again in connection with its targeting of conservative groups during the 2010 and 2012 elections. In all, the IRS held 225 employee conferences from 2010 through 2012, at a total cost of $49 million, the report said. The Anaheim conference was the most expensive, but others were costly, too. In 2010, for instance, the agency held a conference in Philadelphia that cost $2.9 million, one in San Diego that cost $1.2 million, and one in Atlanta that also cost $1.2 million. Acting IRS Commissioner Danny Werfel has called the conferences an unfortunate vestige from a prior era. Werfel took over the agency about two weeks ago, after President Barack Obama forced the previous acting commissioner to resign. For more than 18 months during the 2010 and 2012 election campaigns, IRS agents in a Cincinnati ofce singled out tea party and other conservative groups for additional scrutiny when they sought tax-exempt status, according to a previous report by George. On Tuesday, leaders of conservative groups complained to Congress that they were abused by the Internal Revenue Service for years as they sought tax-exempt status, including questions one Iowa anti-abortion group said it got about prayer meetings.

Gov. Tom Corbett announced today that Area Development Magazine, a publication specializing in corporate real estate, has honored Pennsylvania with a Silver Shovel award for its economic development success in terms of new job creation and economic growth in 2012. Pennsylvania was one of three states to receive a Silver Shovel award in the 10 million-plus population tier and the only Northeast U.S. state overall to earn recognition. The awards are given to the states with the highest weighted scores based on job creation, amount of investment, number of new facilities, and industry diversity. Every state was invited by Area Development to submit information about its top-10 job creation and investment projects. Only those projects that began to materialize in 2012 were considered.

Rows of 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokees are lined up outside the Jefferson North Assembly Plant in Detroit. Chrysler is refusing a request by U.S. safety regulators to recall about 2.7 million vehicles to x fuel tanks that the government says could leak and cause res in rear-end collisions.

Chrysler refuses US request to recall vehicles

The rst keyboard-equipped BlackBerry sporting the companys radically new operating system is hitting U.S. stores this week. T-Mobile USA will start selling the BlackBerry Q10 today. Verizon Wireless started taking pre-orders last week and says it will ship by Thursday. AT&T will start taking orders today. Neither Verizon nor AT&T have said when they will have the phones in stores. The last of the major national carriers, Sprint Nextel, has said it will carry the phone this summer. The new operating system is meant to help the BlackBerry catch up to the iPhone and Android phones in terms of touchscreen capabilities and thirdparty software. GAS PRICES

DETROIT A deant Chrysler is refusing to recall about 2.7 million Jeeps the government says are at risk of a fuel tank re in a rear-end collision. The National Highway Trafc Safety Administration sent Chrysler a letter asking that the company voluntarily recall Jeep Grand Cherokees from 1993 through 2004 and Jeep Libertys from 2002 through 2007. Chrysler Group LLC, which is majority owned by Italys Fiat SpA, said in a statement Tuesday that the Jeeps are safe and it does not intend to recall the vehicles. Such a refusal by an auto company is rare. It was unclear how NHTSA would respond. The agency can order a recall but could need a court order to enforce it. NHTSA opened an investigation into the SUVs in August 2010 at the request of the Center for Auto Safety, a Washington, D.C., advocacy

group. Clarence Ditlow, the centers director, has repeatedly sent letters to Chrysler seeking a recall. The agency found that the Jeeps fuel tanks can fail when hit from the rear, leak fuel and cause res if theres an ignition source. The placement of the tanks behind the axle and their height above the road is a design defect, the agency wrote in its letter to Chrysler, dated Monday. Chrysler moved Grand Cherokee fuel tanks ahead of the rear axle in 2005, and did the same thing with the Liberty in 2007. But retrotting the older Jeeps with repositioned tanks would be time consuming and costly. In 2011, when Toyota recalled 1.7 million cars for possible fuel leaks from sensors, an analyst estimated the cost at $240 million. Automakers usually agree to a recall request, partly to avoid bad publicity. In the last three years, Chrysler has conducted 52 recalls. Chrysler last refused NHTSA in 1996, when the agency asked the company to recall 91,000 Dodge

Stratus and Chrysler Cirrus cars for an alleged seat belt defect. NHTSA sued the company and won in federal court. But in 1998, a federal appeals court reversed the lower courts decision, saying NHTSA had unfairly held Chrysler to a new standard. Chrysler was represented in that case by John Roberts, who is now chief justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. Chrysler says its review of nearly 30 years of data shows a low number of rear-impact crashes involving re or a fuel leak in a eet of more than 5 million vehicles. The rate is similar to comparable vehicles produced and sold during the time in question, the company said in the statement. But NHTSA said in its letter that the older Jeeps performed poorly when compared with all but one similar vehicle from the 1993 to 2007 model years, particularly in terms of fatalities, res without fatalities, and fuel leaks in rear-end impacts and crashes.

US home prices jumped in April by most in 7 years

WASHINGTON U.S. home prices soared 12.1 percent in April from a year earlier, the biggest gain since February 2006, as more buyers competed for fewer homes. Real estate data provider CoreLogic says prices rose in April from the previous April in 48 states. Prices also rose 3.2 percent in April from March, much better than the previous monthto-month gain of 1.9 percent. Prices in Nevada jumped 24.6 percent from a year earlier, the most

among the states. Californias gain was next at 19.4 percent, followed by Arizonas 17.3 percent, Hawaiis 17 percent and Oregons 15.5 percent. More people are looking to purchase homes. But the number of homes for sale is 14 percent lower than it was a year ago. The supply shortage has contributed to the price increases. Rising home prices can help sustain the housing recovery. They encourage more homeowners to sell. And they spur would-be homeowners to buy before prices increase further.

Home sales and prices began to recover last year, six years after the housing bust. They have been buoyed by steady job gains and low mortgage rates. Sales of previously occupied homes ticked up to a 3 year high in April, according to the National Association of Realtors. And they are likely to keep growing: A measure of signed contracts to buy homes rose to its highest level in three years in April. There is generally a one- to two-month lag between a signed contract and a completed sale.

VariETY Of VEggiEs sOOn will bE rEadY fOr THE PiCKing

Despite a few cold days, some greens and other veggies will soon be ready for salads and other summer dishes. Plains Township farmer Harold Golomb Jr. anticipates hell have some Swiss chard, in addition to sugar-snap peas and leaf lettuce. Wondering what to do with Swiss chard? Well, this ultra-healthy leafy green reported to help in regulating blood sugar can accompany many a tasty game dish, either as a side or in the stuffing, executive chef Joe Ginthner of the River Grille in Plains Township says. Its one of my most favorite leafy vegetables, Ginthner said. Its mostly for braising material. I like to use it with duck, primarily because of its heavier, fattier avor, and game animals such as rabbit, quail and pheasant. To prepare, Ginthner suggests, rst clean the chard, cut long ways, season generously then grill it with a little olive oil and seasoning. Or, you can braise it in a pan with fresh herbs and chicken stock for a couple of hours at very low temperature. It takes on the avor of the seasoning, Ginthner said. You can serve Swiss chard as a side paired with other root vegetables or chill it after braising and use it in the stufng, he said. Joe Sylvester

Popular local food-truck chef to roll out signature taco on national TV

By JOE SYLVESTER jsylvester@timesleader.com

hef Mario Bevilacquas foodtruck customers rave about his signature pulled-pork tacos. A lot. So much so that he will get to prepare them on national television as he contends for a top prize of $20,000. Bevilacqua, co-owner with girlfriend Katie Graziosi of the increasingly popular What the Fork food truck, is one of 10 food-truck chefs who are nalists in a nationwide contest sponsored by LIVE with Kelly and Michael. Hosts of the ABC-TV morning show Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan announced the top 10 contenders on May 20 in LIVEs Truckin Amazing Cook-Off.

So how did this all start? Bevilacqua, 25, of Dunmore, and Graziosi, 24, of Old Forge, along with James Bodnar, have run their mobile kitchen, which serves Modern American cuisine, street food and bistro fare, since July 2012, after Bevilacqua turned down an executive-chef job in Yardley. He said he and Graziosi visited the area and thought it was nice, but the cost of living was higher, and a move didnt make sense for them nancially. At the time, The Great Food Truck Race was going on (on the Food Network), said Bodnar, 23, of Scranton. Katie said (to Mario) why not get a food truck instead of moving two hours away? When they rst talked about the food-truck idea, Bevilacqua, a graduate of The Restaurant School of Walnut Hill College in Philadelphia, said, they thought they couldnt do it because of a lack of money and experience. The idea lay dormant for about seven months until Graziosis uncle brought it up again. Then with the help of family and friends, they created a brand and several recipes. Food is in Bevilacquas blood. His late father opened Whistles, a popular eatery in Scranton, when Bevilacqua was 8 and planted the seed for an exciting career in food. After he and his girlfriend settled on the food-truck idea, Bevilacqua also partnered with Bodnar, who had worked with him at The University of Scranton DeNaples Center kitchen for four years. Chelsea Alexander, a 25-year-old waitress from Old Forge, also joined the group. The bright-green truck now offers what its operators call American fusion cuisine. There is no specic specialty, and the menu varies, but customers keep coming back, above all, for the pulled-pork taco. Greg Roberts, 24, of Dunmore, is among the loyalists. I come here all the time,

LIVEs publicity coordinator. Viewers were encouraged to go to the LIVE website, watch videos the chefs had submitted, and cast their votes for the top 10, McTague said. She said the list of 10 is not in the order of votes received. She added the show wont release vote totals or how many food truck chefs were nominated.

Joe Bodnar and Chelsea Alexander prepare orders inside the What The Fork food truck.

Roberts said after picking up his order Thursday, when What the Fork was set up for business outside the Goodwill Donation Center in Dunmore. Wherever they go, we go. Cassidy Mischello, 26, of Dunmore, and her sister Arianna, 24, of State College, also like the pulled-pork tacos as well as the beef sliders with bacon jam, which is a bacon and onion relish. We absolutely love them, Arianna said. She said she visits the truck whenever she is in town. On Thursday, they were trying to sweet-potato chicken tenders for the rst time. The pulled-pork tacos also include Sriracha slaw and a candy sauce. The sliders are made of grain-fed beef, pepper jack cheese and the bacon jam. Fran Garvey, 64, of Scranton, was at the truck for the rst time Thursday. She wanted to try it because her children told her about it. My children live in Virginia and work in D.C., she said.

They frequent food trucks in the city, so when they come here, they patronize What the Fork. Garveys brother, John Reddington, works at Goodwill, so when the truck came here, she knew where to go. Garvey planned to try the pork taco. On this particular day, the menu also included crab-cake slider, grilled cheese, spring rolls, queso stix, house fry, made of a Russet Burbank potato with Himalayan salt and sweet-potato chicken tenders with candy sauce. Making the rounds Although the truck parks at various locations in Scranton, Dunmore and Dickson City, it has been traveling to WilkesBarre for special events, such as the recent May Day in Kirby Park and the employee appreciation day at Wilkes-Barre Gener-

al Hospital, for which the hospital hired the food truck, Bodnar said. Bevilacqua said regulations vary among the various cities and boroughs where he does business. In Dunmore, we can only vend from private property, he said. In Scranton, we must be 100 feet from brick-and-mortar (restaurants.) There are denitely a lot of hoops with different boroughs. Some restaurants are resistant to the food truck, he said, but others welcome it. In Wilkes-Barre, Bodnar said, they were simply told to be considerate of other businesses. When Ripa and Strahan announced the contest early last month, viewers nominated their favorite mobile eatery. Our production team narrowed that down to 20; the viewers narrowed them down to 10, said Lauren McTague,

PULLED PORK We wont give away Mario Bevilacquas secrets, nor his full recipe for his famous pulled-pork tacos, but we will tell you how to make your own pulled pork, on the chance youve never. It actually couldnt be easier, and you can tweak this basic recipe,

repeated in many sources, in any number of ways. Substitute Dr. Pepper for root beer, for example. Or make your own barbecue sauce. Or add your choice of spices to taste. INGREDIENTS: 1 2-pound pork tenderloin 1 12-oz. can of root beer 1 8 oz. bottle barbecue sauce 8 toasted hamburger buns, slider rolls or taco shells METHOD: 1. Place the tenderloin in a slow cooker and cover with root beer. Cook on low for six or seven hours or until the pork shreds easily. 2. Drain well. 3. Stir in barbecue sauce. 4. Serve on bread or tacos of choice.

Preteen son who is experiencing puberty needs a word to the wise

Dear Abby: Im a single mother of two amazing boys, 16 and 12. While my older son has been private about coming into puberty, my younger son is very open about it, and we have had many conversations about it. Ill be honest. The subject makes me uncomfortable. Last night I walked into my 12-yearolds room and interrupted him pleasuring himself. I was shocked, and I started to laugh because I was embarrassed. I did tell him he needed to be more private about his curiosity, but I was laughing when I was talking to him and literally could not stop. Im unsure what is the right course of action at this point. Where do I

DEAR ABBY
ADVICE go from here?
Embarrassed Mom Dear Embarrassed: Masturbation is natural. Every healthy, normal person has done it. It is not depraved, a crime or harmful to ones health. Your son is now at an age when it is appropriate for Mom to knock before entering his room out of respect for his privacy. So: Apologize to your son for laughing. Explain that it was because you were embarrassed. If your childrens father is in the picture (or another male relative), a man-to-man talk about this could

be helpful. If there isnt one, consult your sons pediatrician for suggestions on how to discuss sexuality with both of your boys. If you havent already done so, the time has arrived. Dear Abby: My brother, three sisters and their husbands and children and I go to our parents house for holiday dinners. My youngest sisters husband refuses to go because he doesnt get along with our family. Before my youngest sister leaves, she insists on taking a plate of food home for her husband who was unable to be there. I feel if he doesnt want to be with our family, he shouldnt be allowed to have takeout. Our mother is 82, and it upsets her that he doesnt want to be there. Resentful

Dear Resentful: If your brother-inlaw cant get along with the family, he is doing everyone a favor by not attending those family dinners. Because your mother finds his absence upsetting, it is up to her to put her foot down and tell your sister she doesnt want food taken to him. Until she does, food deliveries will continue. Dear Abby: I, too, am disgusted with people who answer their cellphones wherever and whenever. I was at a funeral last week where this twit answered her cellphone while viewing the deceased in his casket. She was literally kneeling beside the casket when her phone rang, and she carried on a conversation with the caller for a full three minutes. I timed it!

I know some people may think this is funny or no big deal. I suggest that those who feel that way should learn manners. Unless youre a doctor or some other emergency caretaker, there is no reason to take a call while in the company of others. Michael in Rochester, N.Y. Dear Michael: I agree. When attending a funeral or a memorial, cellphones should be TURNED OFF out of respect not only for the deceased, but for the others around you.

UNIVERSAL SUDOKU

CRYPTOQUOTE

HOROSCOPE
BY HOLIDAY MATHIS
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Heres the magic phrase that will save you from a medium-sized mountain of regret: I dont know right now, but Ill get back to you. Youll be in an entirely different headspace by the end of the week. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You may feel that youre overscheduled, and indeed you are stretching things a bit. But some of whats on the agenda wont pan out, so theres no need to cancel your plans just yet. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The goal you have in mind is extremely doable. Thousands of people have done it before you, and you know some of them personally. But you have to believe in yourself. Believe! CANCER (June 22-July 22). Haste makes waste not to mention tempers, accidents, thoughtlessness, insensitivity, disconnection, oversight, mistakes and lost opportunity. In short: Slow down! LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Aggressive drivers and other intense energies may be part of the days challenges. The good news is that your personal sunshine will melt the opposition. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You often overlook your many stellar qualities because youre so busy trying to build on them. But at times like this, its important to remember that people love you just the way you are. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You may be slightly spacey in the morning, and youll require more motivation than usual to get into gear. Rekindle an interest that used to put you in a good mood. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Caution and precaution prevent burnout. What dangers do you need to ward against? What inconveniences could you avoid if you thought ahead to future possibilities? SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It will be fun to listen to the wild antics, fantastic schemes and out-there ideas of your craziest friends, and their escapades will be especially interesting today. Some of said friends are public figures you follow. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If you dont like the street youre on, you can always turn a corner and head down the next one. The key is to move. As long as youre moving, youre going places. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Theres an enthusiasm in your body. Youre light on your feet and ready to dance, fight, run or fly. You are living the Jimi Hendrix lyric: Excuse me while I kiss the sky. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Even though youre in a highly sensitive and intuitive phase, you realize there are certain life skills you lack. Logic and instruction manuals will be involved. Youre up to the task, so dive in. TODAYS BIRTHDAY (June 5). You may be sweet and gentle when it counts, but you are also mighty an aspect of you that will be highlighted in the coming year. Your friends will help you actualize a goal over the next 10 weeks. August is a romantic month for you. In September, cash in on something youve held on to for a while. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 23, 41, 2 and 11.
