STATE COLLEGE Ex-
Penn State assistant football
coach Jerry Sandusky was ar-
rested and jailed Wednesday on
new child sex abuse charges
brought by two new accusers,
including one who claims Sand-
usky molested him numerous
times in a basement bedroom.
The claims bring the number
of Sanduskys criminal accusers
to 10 and he now faces more
than 50 charges stemming from
accusations he molested boys
for years on Penn State proper-
ty, in his home and elsewhere.
The scandal has raised ques-
tions about whether Penn State
officials did all they should have
to stop the alleged activity and
ended the careers of the schools
president and Hall of Fame foot-
ball coach Joe Paterno.
Sandusky, 67, was first arrest-
ed last month and has said re-
peatedly that he is innocent.
The latest charges were brought
after new accusers were ques-
tioned by a grand jury, which
issued another report detailing
chilling new allegations of
abuse.
Sandusky lawyer Joseph
Amendola said after the arraign-
ment Wednesday that he had
not yet read the latest grand ju-
ry report, but said he has no
reason to doubt Sanduskys
claims of innocence.
Sandusky was unable to im-
mediately post a $250,000 bail
and was taken to jail.
Like earlier accusers, both of
the new alleged victims told the
grand jury they met Sandusky
through The Second Mile char-
ity for troubled children that he
founded in 1977.
As in many of the other cases
identified to date, the contact
with Sandusky allegedly fit a
pattern of grooming victims,

A storm moving across the
state Wednesday was expected
to bring a mix of precipitation
with snow forecast for North-
eastern Pennsylvania.
Up to 8 inches could fall in the
higher elevations, according to
the National Weather Service in
Binghamton, N.Y.
The snow would be the first
significant accumulation since
the Halloween weekend storm
dumped nearly a foot in parts of
the region.
The storm was expected to
pass through by early today and
colder temperatures would set-
tle in, replacing the unseason-
ably warm weather from earlier
in the week.
Its coming from western
North Carolina and going to
move into central Virginia and
Maryland and Delaware and
then up toward Long Island,
said Brian Lovejoy, a meteorol-
ogist with the NWS.
The forecast called for the
rain to turn to snow between 6
p.m. and 9 p.m. Wednesday. Be-
tween 2 and 4 inches could fall
in the valleys and upwards of 6
to 8 inches on the hills, he add-
ed.
Road departments were given
plenty of advance warning of the
storm, said Lovejoy.
Michael Taluto, a spokesman
for PennDOT District 4-0 in
Dunmore, said crews, trucks
and equipment were ready.

SCRANTON A jury of seven
women and five men acquitted
Michael Simonson on attempted
first-degree murder charges
Wednesday in the nearly fatal
beating of Lackawanna County
jail inmate Nicholas Pinto.
Simonson,
34, formerly of
Plains Town-
ship, was found
guilty of at-
tempted volun-
tary man-
slaughter, sim-
ple and aggra-
vated assault,
assault by a prisoner, and reck-
less endangerment.
Simonson testified Wednes-
day he had a rage building up
inside of me after being kept on
a prison block with child por-
nography and child sexual as-
sault suspects.
The man already serving a life
sentence for the April 2009 mur-
der of Donald Skiff was often
soft-spoken as the sole defense
witness.
Its sickening. It makes me
sick, Simonson said of child
sex-crime suspects.
Simonson said he asked pris-
on officials to be moved from
the Delta block because of his
anger toward such alleged crimi-
Jury gives
Simonson
a split
verdict
Hes not guilty of attempted
first-degree murder, guilty of
other charges in beating.

UNION TWP. Randy Toma-
sacci, a veteran member of the
Northwest Area School Board,
was elected president of the
board for 2012 during a reorgani-
zational meeting Wednesday
night. Tomasacci succeeds Char-
les Brace, who chose not to run
for re-election this year.
ServingwithTomasacci as vice
president is Peter Lanza. They
were elected by a 7-1 vote of the
eight school directors present.
Only director Gina Schwartz cast
a nay vote. In addition, Michael
Kreidler was sworn in as a newly
elected member of the board.
Kreidler was elected last month
to serve a two-year term. Ralph
Killian, who also won election in
November, didnt attend the ses-
sion because of illness.
Kreidler was chosen to serve
on the operating committee of
the West Side Career and Tech-
nologyCenter. Tomasacci was se-
lected as the alternate to Krei-
dler.
The meeting was the first for
newly appointed Superintendent
Ronald Grevera, who in com-
ments to the board pledged to
keepthe district moving forward.
Grevera took time to commend
Director Albert Gordon for hav-
ing servedas a school director for
12 consecutive years and to ac-
knowledge the work of Sandra
Robbins, who is retiring after 38
years service in the schools busi-
ness office.
Grevera, who left an adminis-
trative post in the Crestwood
School District to accept the
Northwest position, succeedsGa-
ry Powlus, who has been serving
on interim basis. Powlus, it was
stated by the board, will remain
as a self-employed consultant
in order to effect a smooth transi-
tion in leadership.
There was some debate be-
tween Lanza, transportation
chairman, and Director Alton
Farver about the projected cost
savings realized in closing the
Garrison building in Shickshin-
ny. Farver contends the district
had to add four buses and five
vans in order to transport stu-
dents toother schools. He argued
projected monetary savings in
closing Garrison have not been
realized because of additional
transportation needs.
Lanza rebutted that Farver
doesnt have his figures straight
and he and Albert Melone, finan-
cial consultant to the board, of-
fered to meet with Farver in a pri-
vate session in order to answer
anyof Farversquestionsontrans-
portationcosts. Farver wasnt im-
mediately receptive toa meeting.
Powlus reported that reim-
bursement for flood damage to
the Garrison school is due soon
from districts flood insurance
carrier and Grevera noted the
schools heating system will be
made operable with the advent of
winter weather.

After enduringyears of delays andbro-
ken promises, Lisa Sands said she was
feeling confident about the team of as-
sistant district attorneys prosecuting
Hugo Selenski.
Selenski, 38, is facing a yet-to-be
scheduledandfrequentlydelayedtrial in
the killings of her sister, Tammy Fassett,
and Michael Jason Kerkowski in May
2002.
When Sands, of Meshoppen, learned
earlier this week that Luzerne County
District Attorney-elect Stefanie Salavan-
tis has not made a decision about the Se-
lenski prosecution team, she said her
faith was shaken.
Why break it up now when were so
close to having the
trial, Sands said
Wednesday. (Salavan-
tis) knows nothing
about this case, and
she may be getting rid
of the best people that
do. I dont under-
stand.
Salavantis inherited
the complicated Selenski case when she
defeated incumbent Jacqueline Musto
Carroll in the general election last
month.
As with any new administration,
Sands understands changes will likely
occur.
But she questions the replacement of
prosecutors who know the case inside
and out with assistant district attorneys
who dont have the same knowledge
about the nearly decade-long investiga-
tion.
Assistant district attorneys Jarrett Fe-
rentino and David Pedri have been on
the Selenski teamsince March2006, and
assistant district attorney Michael Mel-
nick joined the group in 2008.
All Imasking is let Jarrett, Davidand
Mike stay on the case, Sands said.
Theyve been on this case for a lot of
years and have this case in their hearts.
Theyre dedicated to seeing this to the
end.
Salavantis said earlier this week and
again Wednesday that she has not made
any decisions about the Selenski prose-
cution team. She said she has a meeting
with Musto Carroll about Selenski as
well as other cases in her transition to
assuming her elected duties as district
attorney.
Sands said she is fed up with the re-
peateddelays andhopes any changes Sa-
lavantis makes arent due to politics.
Im not going to hold nothing back,
Sands said.
Selenskis trial has often been delayed
since he was charged with two counts of
homicide, robbery and abuse of corpse
in May 2006. The latest trial date of Nov.
28 was continued when Selenski re-
quested defense lawyers after a brief
stint of representing himself.
No lawyers have been appointed by
the court since Selenskis request was
granted on Nov. 9.
The trial must be heldbefore April, ac-
cording to a court record.

WILKES-BARRE Six Luzerne
County judges and actor Martin Sheen
walk into a courtroom.
Theres no punch line here, just a ve-
ry important message:
Drug addiction is like going into a
coma, Sheen told a crowd inside a
courtroom at the Luzerne County
Courthouse on Wednesday during a
special presentation for county Treat-
ment Court participants. You have to
find something in your life worth fight-
ing for.
Sheen, 71, a self-proclaimed drug
court activist and Alcoholics Anony-
mous member for 22 years, spoke of
the strides the treatment court pro-
gram has made nationally and locally,
and the importance of keeping it
around. The local programis in danger
of losing its federal funding next sum-
mer.
More times than not, Sheen said,
people begin drug addictions because
they feel unloved or theyve hit rock
bottom.
When addicts reach out to someone
who has been through addiction and
has overcome it, they re-discover the
fire of life.
Thats what this program is like,
Sheen said.
Judge Lewis Wetzel, who oversees
the program with District Judge Jo-
seph Carmody, said the program will
runout of federal funding inJune 2012,
and the court is seeking ways to gain
more funding to keep the program go-
ing.

PLYMOUTH A woman
was arraigned Wednesday
on child endangerment
charges after police alleged-
ly found two children living
in a house filled with gar-
bage and without utility ser-
vices.
Marie Brown, 41, of Palm-
er Street, was charged with
two counts of endangering
the welfare of children. She
was arraigned in Wilkes-
Barre Central Court and re-
leased on $5,000 unsecured
bail.
Police allege there was no
heat, electrical or water ser-
vices to Browns house,
where a 12-year-old girl and
a 14-year-old boy lived.
The children were taken
into protective custody by
Luzerne County Children
and Youth Services, police
said.
Brown told police she was
unable to afford utility ser-
vices since losing her job
and was using the stove and
candles for heat and light,
according to charges filed.
Police said the borough
code enforcement officer,
John Thomas, condemned
the building.
According to the criminal
complaint:
Police assisted a Children
and Youth caseworker
checking on the childrens
welfare after receiving a re-
port from a school on Tues-
day.
Police said they found
Brown and the children at a
nearby business. Brown per-
mitted police and the case-
worker inside the residence,
which was filled with gar-
bage, rotting food, dirty dis-
hes and infested with in-
sects.
Brown told police she
used the stove burners for
heat when electrical service
was turned off on Oct. 22.
Water service to the house
was shut off on Oct. 29, the
complaint says.
Without water service,
Brownusedbakingsoda and
vinegar to break down hu-
man waste in toilets, accord-
ing to the criminal com-
plaint.
Police said in the com-
plaint Brown was rationing
food, givingthe childrenone
meal a day that consisted of
instant potatoes, toast, cere-
al and soup.

PLYMOUTH A century-old
Main Street building that houses
a portion of the Max L. Fainberg
&Sonfurniturebusiness is slated
tobe acquiredanddemolishedby
the government as
part of a downtown re-
vitalization plan.
Citizens have until
Dec. 23 to submit
comments, concerns
or views about thepro-
ject andits impact ona
historic property, ac-
cording to a legal ad
published Wednesday
by the county commu-
nity development of-
fice.
County Community Develop-
ment Director Andrew Reilly
said the public comment period
is required because the building
is eligible for listing on the Na-
tional Register of Historic Places.
The demolition would create a
large, visible parking lot along
busy U.S. Route 11 that would
link to an existing borough lot in
the rear of the block, Reilly said.
The county allocated $350,000
toward the revitalization project
in 2006, and $119,400 remains,
Reilly said.
Another $898,000 will come
from state gaming revenue allo-
cated earlier this year.
The project, administered by
the county Redevelopment Au-
thority, was delayed
because the state
withdrewits original
$1.255 million allo-
cation of gambling
money after the bor-
ough failed to pro-
vide documentation
that significant pub-
lic input was sought
on the proposed pro-
ject.
Plans for a strip
mall and national
pharmacy also fell through when
two developers withdrew inter-
est.
A Camp Hill consultant has
since been hired to formulate a
plan, with guidance from a local
steering committee. Downtown
parking was identified as a need
in a revitalization plan.
The newplan also calls for ren-
ovation of existing facades, pe-
destrian crossings, a park and
overall sprucing up of the core
business district from Academy
to Elm Street.
The former PNC Bank build-
ing on Main Street also was pur-
chased for $140,000 as part of the
project, though its still unclear
how that structure will fit into
the redevelopment plan.
The proposed purchase price
of the Fainberg property is
$465,000 based on a dated ap-
praisal, but the amount may
change because a new appraisal
is in the works, Reilly said. The
owner of the property, Stanley
Fainberg, could not be reached
for comment. The furniture busi-
ness also maintains a building on
the opposite side of the street
that is not included in the pur-
chase.
Councilman-elect Clif Ma-
drack advises residents to take
advantageof theinvitationtopro-
vide comment. Elected borough
officials have not publicly dis-
cussedthe plan, leaving most res-
idents in the dark about the po-
tential loss of a landmark struc-
ture for more parking, he said.

Protests rage third night
P
opular anger against Vladimir Pu-
tins ruling party and alleged elec-
tion fraud boiled over into a third
straight night of protests Wednesday,
and police in Russias two largest cities
arrested scores of demonstrators.
The demonstrations in Moscow and
St. Petersburg appeared to attract few-
er protesters than in previous days.
Putins United Russia party lost a
significant share of its seats in Sundays

Duma, the lower house of parliament,
but will still have a majority. Oppo-

by widespread vote fraud.

Republican leaders have pushed for
Obama to approve the pipeline project,
saying it would create much-needed
jobs in the U.S.
The payroll tax cuts are due to ex-
pire at the end of the year.

Gadhafi son plot stopped
The Mexican government Wednes-

ring.
Saadi Gadhafi, the 38-year-old son of
the deposed and slain dictator, got as
far as Niger. But, authorities said, he
was supposed to travel to Mexico as
part of an elaborate scheme complete
with new names, fake Mexican citizen-
ship, a network of safe houses and
private jets flying a route through Ko-
sovo and Canada.
Interior Secretary Alejandro Poire
said four people two Mexicans, a
Canadian and a Dane formed the
smuggling ring and were arrested last
month.

Syrias chief denies blame
Syrian President Bashar Assad said

would kill his own people.
Apparently trying to distance himself
from violence that the U.N. says has
killed 4,000 people since March, Assad
laughed off a question about whether
he feels any guilt.
I did my best to protect the people,
he told ABCs Barbara Walters during
an interview at the presidential palace
in the Syrian capital, Damascus. You
feel sorry for the life that has been lost,
but you dont feel guilty when you
dont kill people.
No government in the world (kills)
its people unless it is led by a crazy
person, Assad added in the interview,
which was conducted in English.

WASHINGTON Americas wild
weather year has set another record: a
dozen billion-dollar catastrophes.
The National Oceanic and Atmo-
spheric Administration said Wednes-
day that it has recalculated the number
of weather disasters passing the billion-
dollar mark, with two new ones, push-
ing 2011s total to12. The two costly ad-
ditions are the Texas, New Mexico and
Arizona wildfires and the mid-June tor-
nadoes and severe weather.
NOAAuses $1billion as a benchmark
for the worst weather disasters. This
years total of a dozen billion-dollar ca-
lamities matches the number for all of
the 1980s, even when the older figures
are adjusted for inflation.
Extreme weather in America this
year has killed more than 1,000 people,
according to National Weather Service
Director Jack Hayes. The dozen billion-
dollar disasters alone add up to $52 bil-
lion in damage. Hayes, a meteorologist
since1970, saidhe has never seena year
for extreme weather like this, calling it
the deadly, destructive and relentless
2011.
And this years total may not stop at
12. Officials are still adding up the dam-
agefromtheTropical StormLeeandthe
pre-Halloween Northeast snowstorm,
and so far they are both at the $750 mil-
lion mark. And theres still nearly a
month left in the year.
Scientists blame an unlucky combi-
nation of global warming and freak
chance. They say even with the long-
predicted increase in weather extremes
triggered by manmade climate change,
2011 in the U.S. was wilder than they
predicted. The six large outbreaks of
twisters, which were especially deadly
this year, cant be attributed to global
warming, but increased droughts, heat
waves and wildfires are expected to in-
crease with global warming, scientists
say. More people are also living in areas
that are prone to disasters.
The number of weather catastrophes
that pass the billion-dollar mark when
adjustedintoconstant dollars is increas-
ing with each decade.

morning-after pill from moving
onto drugstore shelves next to

able to buy it on their own.
The Food and Drug Adminis-
trationwas preparingtolift a con-

over-the-counter emergency con-
traceptive, available for purchase
by people of any age without a
prescription.
But Health and Human Servic-
es Secretary Kathleen Sebelius
intervened at the eleventh hour
and overruled her own experts.
Plan B instead will remain be-
hind the pharmacy counter, as it
is sold today available without
a prescription only for those 17
and older who show an ID prov-
ing their age.
Sebelius reason: Some girls as
youngas11arephysicallycapable
of bearing children, and Plan Bs
maker didnt prove that younger
girls could properly understand
how to use this product without
guidance from an adult.
It was the latest twist in a near-
ly decade-long push for over-the-
counter sales of pills that can pre-
vent pregnancy if taken soon
enough after unprotected sex.
Major doctors groups and wom-
ens health advocates say easier,
quicker access to those pills
could cut the nations high num-
ber of unplanned pregnancies.

40th governor, was sentenced to14 years
in prison Wednesday for the attempted
sale of a U.S. Senate seat, illegal shake-
downs for campaigncashandlyingtofed-
eral agents.
As the sentence was pronounced, Patti
Blagojevich buried her head in her hus-
bands shoulder andthe two embraced.
Blagojevich will have to serve just un-
der 12 years under federal rules that say
defendants must complete 85 percent of
their sentence. Blagojevich doesnt have
to report to federal prisonuntil Feb. 16.
ThesentencehandeddownbyU.S. Dis-
trict Judge James Zagel is more thandou-
ble the prison term given in 2006 to for-
mer Gov. George Ryan, who is serving a 6

Zagel told Blagojevich that he was re-
sponsible for the crimes, not his under-
lingsashehadargued. Hemarchedthem
andruinedafewof their careers andmore
thanthat inthe process, the judge said.
WhileZagel saidhewas sympatheticto
how the sentence would affect Blagojev-
ichs daughters, he asked, Why did devo-
tionas a father not deter him? ... Nowit is
too late.
Zagel announced the sentence after a
somber Blagojevich, his voice cracking
with emotion, pleaded for a lighter sen-
tence with a round of apologies to the
judge, tothe jurors whoconvictedhim, to
the public andto his family.

decidedI was guilty. I amacceptingof it. I

lievably sorry for it, Blagojevichsaid.
I want toapologizetothepeopleof Illi-
nois, to the court, for the mistakes I have
made ... I never set out to break the law. I
never set out to cross lines.
Blagojevichsaidhe thought he was act-
ing in accord with the law when he did
things for whichhe later was convicted.

LOS ANGELES Harry
Morgan never planned to be an
actor, yet he spent 10 years on
one of the top TV series of all
time, made 50 films and ap-
peared on Broadway. He be-
came one of the best-known
character actors in Hollywood.
But it was Morgans por-
trayal of the fatherly Col. Sher-
man Potter on M-A-S-H for
whichMorganbecame most fa-
mous, and he knew it.
M-A-S-H was so damned
good, Morgan told The Asso-
ciated Press. I didnt think
they could keep the level so
high.
His wry humor, which
helped net him an Emmy for
the CBS-TV hit, carried onto
the show.
He was an imp, said Mike
Farrell, who starred as B.J.
Hunnicutt in M-A-S-H along
with Morgan and Alan Alda.
As Alan once said, theres not
an un-adorable bone in the
mans body. He was full of fun,
and he was smart as a whip.
Morgan died Wednesday at
age 96 at his Brentwood home
after having pneumonia, his
daughter-in-law, Beth Morgan,
told AP.
Morgan appeared in mostly
supporting roles on the big
screen, playing opposite such
stars as Henry Fonda, John
Wayne, James Garner, Elvis
Presley and Dan Aykroyd.
On television, he was more
the comedic co-star, including
roles on December Bride, its
spin-off Pete and Gladys, as
Sgt. Joe Fridays loyal partner
in later Dragnet episodes and
on CBS-TVs long-running M-
A-S-H series, for which he
earned an Emmy award in
1980.
Yet acting wasnt Morgans
first career choice.
Born in Detroit in 1915, Mor-
gan was studying pre-lawat the
University of Chicago when
public speakingclasses sparked
his interest in the stage.

Some Luzerne County gov-
ernment paychecks are now be-
ing generated by work hours en-
tered through the new time-
clock system, officials said.
These checks are for the1,000
employees in the first group us-
ing the system, including 300 at
the prisonand600 inthe human
services, drug-and-alcohol, ag-
ing, children and youth and
mental health/mental retarda-
tiondepartments, said
Commissioner Chair-
woman Maryanne Pe-
trilla.
County Human Re-
sources Director An-
drew Check said the
administration did not
experience any major
issues withthe conver-
sion.
Employees enter a
four-digit personal
code and insert a fin-
ger into a scanning de-
vice toclockinandout
of work. Some em-
ployees enter their
personal codes
through computers if
they are frequently on the road
or work in small satellite offices
that wont be equipped with
time clocks.
Most other employees, ex-
cept those in court branches,
have started using the time
clocks, Petrilla said.
Court branches should be
trained to use the time clocks
within the next few weeks, she
said.
County Court of Common
Pleas President Judge Thomas
Burke said Wednesday that only
unionized workers in court
branches will clock in with the
new system.
Non-union court workers
wont physically clock in and
out, Burke said. Instead, data
will be entered in the new time
system to generate payroll and
track their vacation and sick
days.
That preserves the inde-
pendence of the court as a sep-
arate branch to supervise its
own employees while comply-
ing with the countys system to
generate payroll, Burke said.
Burke said all court employ-
ees, union and non-, generally
work from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30
p.m., though hours often fluctu-
ate fromweek to week based on
caseloads. Judges ultimately
control the schedules and hours
of non-union staff in
court branches, he said.
Probationanddomes-
tic relations officers and
many support staffers in
court branches are
unionized, while judi-
cial staff, jury room
workers and stenogra-
phers are not, he said.
The county pur-
chased the time clocks
and software for
$233,405 from Chelms-
ford, Mass.-based Kro-
nos Inc. Another
$273,765 and a $5,000
monthly fee are being
paid to Minnesota-
based ACS Enterprise
Solutions Inc. to implement and
maintain the system.
Though critics have ques-
tioned the need and expense,
Petrilla recently told the county
council-elect that the system is
projected to save $2 million in
soft costs. She said one 25-year
county retiree left with a
$25,000 check for unused sick
and vacation time because there
was no documentation to prove
the information was inaccurate.
With the new system, employ-
ees who are tardy and take ex-
tended lunch breaks will be
dockedpay, she toldthe council-
elect.

SCRANTON Lackawanna
County commissioners on
Wednesday approved by a 2-1
vote the creation of a munici-
pal airport authority to oversee
the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton In-
ternational Airport. The vote
came two days after Luzerne
County commissioners voted
unanimously to form the bi-
county authority.
Luzerne County Controller
Walter Griffith asked the Lack-
awanna commissioners, as he
did the Luzerne commission-
ers on Monday, if any of them
planned to sit on the authority.
All three commissioners said
they had no intention of do-
ing so.
Griffith raised another con-
cern that, were rushing to
make something happen so we
can circumvent the new gov-
ernment thats
coming in Lu-
zerne Coun-
ty.
While Grif-
fith favors the
formation of
an authority
in the proper
time and place, he felt that the
process should have taken
longer and been more open,
with the selection of authority
members left to the new Lu-
zerne County Council that
takes office Jan. 1.
Lackawanna County Com-
missioner Mike Washo respon-
ded by pointing out that this is
not a new issue. You said this
is a good idea, but then youre
looking for ways to defeat it,
Washo told Griffith. Here you
have a loosely defined entity
with six county commissioners
running it, none of who have
the time, really, to do that. We
cant run the sewer authority,
the housing authority, the air-
port thats why authorities
are established, and theyre es-
tablished to get the best possi-
ble people in order to manage
those authorities on behalf of
those same taxpayers that vot-
ed in your new form of govern-
ment.
I think that what were con-
sidering here today is giving
something to the people and
taking something away from
the political people, he added.
The lone dissenter, Lacka-
wanna County Commissioner
Corey OBrien, said he favored
the concept of an authority, but
agreed the Luzerne County
Council should select mem-
bers. He also contended the
airport is not financially self-
sustaining and would continue
to need county funds and he
questioned the legality of
changing the form of manage-
ment at the same time Luzerne
County government was being
changed.
While the resolution was ap-
proved Wednesday, the meet-
ing was continued until direct-
ly after the commissioners
regular meeting on Wednesday
at 10 a.m., when they will vote
on a full resolution containing
the names of those involved
with the new authority.

NANTICOKE Luzerne
County Community College
President Tom Leary received a
vote of confidence when the
Board of Trustees extended his
contract Tuesday, but the col-
leges bookkeeping took a few
hits in an audit discussed at the
same meeting.
The annual audit, conducted
by Prociak & Associates, found
several significant deficien-
cies that merit attention.
A need for formal account-
ing procedures to recognize do-
nated materials and assets as
they are received. The college
was recording some donations
at the end of the year.
Several employees were
paid for compensated absenc-
es in excess of the amount of
time allowed under contract,
though the total overpayment
was not material to the finan-
cial statements. The college
has agreed to start a system to
monitor accumulation of com-
pensated time.
Inadequate control of
Food Service Value Cards, in-
cluding failure to secure un-
used cards and adequately
track when cards are issued and
used. The college determined it
would be too expensive to im-
plement an electronic tracking
system and promised the pro-
gram will be terminated.
Errors in transferring ac-
counts receivable data for the
Public Safety Training Institute
when the books were converted
to a newcomputer systemin Ja-
nuary. The college is conduct-
ing a review of the data to cor-
rect any problems.
Omissions in bookkeeping
entries regarding non-credit
programs at the Public Safety
Training Institute made it im-
possible to trace six payments
received for courses to the
amounts deposited in the bank.
Controls need to be added to
make sure receipts and depos-
its are reconciled on a daily ba-
sis. The college promised to de-
vise and implement those
changes.
Enrollment, billing and col-
lection functions for non-credit
programs should be handled by
separate individuals to reduce
risk of errors. The college
agreed, but added that it will
have to evaluate the cost/ben-
efit of implementing proper
segregation of duties or other
options available.
Failure by the college book-
store to make sure federal fi-
nancial aid to students is spent
on items allowed by federal reg-
ulations. The auditors found
$4,748 of questioned costs in
a sampling of 138 students. The
college agreed to make neces-
sary changes to meet regula-
tions.

gram, charges brought against
the person will be dismissed.
Treatment Court coordinator
Kelly Cesari said there have
been 95 people
who have suc-
cessfully com-
pleted the pro-
gram since it
began in Lu-
zerne County
in January
2006.
Currently
there are 40
participants en-
rolled, and the
county saves
$41,332 in pris-
on costs per graduate a total
of more than $3.9 million.
The program has a recidivism
rate of 11.6 percent; the national
percentage is 66.7 percent.
Sheen, who has won multiple
Emmys and Golden Globes, pri-
vately met with the participants
after Wednesdays event, shak-
ing hands, taking pictures and
autographing photos.
We are not asked to do great
things (in our lives), were only
asked to do human things,
Sheen said. Thats what drug
court is.
Sheen called the participants
an inspiration and touched up-
on his alcohol addiction, the
substance abuse that has affect-
ed his son Charlie Sheen, and
the importance of getting help
and making a better life.
Three Treatment Court par-
ticipants also spoke Wednesday,
all whom said they would prob-
ably not be here today if not for
Treatment Court.
I knew I had a problem, said
Stephanie, whose last name has
been withheld for privacy. I
was stealing from my family I
ruined every relationship.
She said her addiction got
worse with each arrest, and she
eventually was put in a halfway
house and accepted to the treat-
ment court program.
It has helped me succeed in
life and has given me a sec-
ond change, she said.
Sheen, whose real name is Ra-
mon Antonio Gerard Estevez,
was introduced to the crowd by
Luzerne County Judge Joseph
Cosgrove.
The two, who call themselves
brothers, have been close
friends for 30 years, Cosgrove
said.
Cosgrove said Sheen got him
involved in drug court 17 years
ago when he was a criminal de-
fense attorney, and that drug
court is a touchstone in
Sheens life.
According to The Times
Leader archives, Sheen said he
and Cosgrove met in the 1980s
when they were both arrested in
New York City for protesting a
President Ronald Reagan initia-
tive known as Star Wars, a
plan to intercept and destroy in-
coming enemy missiles and war-
heads in space.
Sheen said Cosgrove went
around the police station gather-
ing summons from the other
protesters agreeing to defend
them in court because he felt so
strongly about the peace move-
ment.
Cosgrove had been Sheens
personal attorney and had de-
fended him in dozens of protest
arrests since, except one, Sheen
said.
Cosgrove has also appeared
on the former NBC series The
West Wing, in which Sheen had
starred as a president of the
United States for seven years.

Actor Martin Sheen talks about the importance of the treatment
court program in the Luzerne County Courthouse on Wednesday.
Drug ad-
diction is
like going
into a co-
ma.
Martin Sheen
TV and movie
actor who has
battled addiction
himself
voting because he holds a
right-of-way agreement with
Chief Gathering.
Concerned parents and resi-
dents have protested the com-
panys plans since January,
when the hearings began.
Chief initially had planned to
build a compressor station at
the site, but due to the con-
cerns of the community and
local legislators, the plans for
that facility were scrapped in
February.
The company has amended
its application several times
during the hearing process,
including to remove the stor-
age of the natural gas odorant
mercaptan and a 100-foot
communications tower from
the site.
The hearings been a pretty
lengthy process, but weve
made many accommodations
in the process to the township
and the Dallas School Board,
said Kristi Gittens, a Chief
spokesperson. Over the
course of the last year theres
been a lot of discussion to
make all sides happy.
Chief has already gained ap-
proval from the township
planning commission to con-
struct a 30-mile pipeline from
Susquehanna County to tap
into the Transco line.
Gittens said the company
plans to begin construction in
January and the process
should take about six months.
Residents were disappoint-
ed with the decision, but
many said it was expected.
Jim DeMichele, one of several
residents who offered testi-
mony in opposition of the fa-
cility, said the approval seems
to be in accordance with the
state governments trend of
siding with the natural gas
companies.
Sonia Maslowski, whose
family was represented by at-
torney Mark McNealis during
the hearings, said she was
shocked when the decision
was rendered.
The zoning hearing board
has 45 days to issue a decision
in writing paired with conclu-
sions of law to support of the
approval, but it was unclear
what recourse citizens have in
the matter.
Maslowski said she still
needs to digest all of the con-
ditions offered at the hearing,
but an appeal is on her mind.
Were definitely thinking
about it, she said.
Gittens said any appeals
would not interfere with the
construction of the pipeline
and metering facility.
Next week zoning hearings
will begin for another natural
gas company, Williams Field
Services LLC, and its request
to build a similar facility
about 500 feet away from the
Chief site.

Liz Martin speaks to a reporter about her feelings about the Chief
Gathering LLC metering site approval on Wednesday.

WILKES-BARRE The trial
of Angel Sanchez and Rodolfo
HiraldoPerez, scheduledtobe-
gin Monday before Luzerne
County Judge David Lupas,
was continued Wednesday at
the request of defense attor-
neys.
John Pike and David Lamp-
man, whorepresent Perez, said
in court papers that because
Perez does not speak English,
preparing for his case has been
difficult.
The attorneys also said they
are trying to obtain a forensic
medical expert to testify on Pe-
rezs behalf at the trial.
Lupas did not set a specific
trial date for next year.
Sanchez, 20, who is repre-
sented by attorney Demetrius
Fannick, and Perez, 25, are
charged in the Jan. 16 death of
21-year-old Vladimir Ruiz.
A third man, Willis Gonza-
lez, 21, of Hazleton, is charged
in the shooting death of Juda
Hope in the same incident.
Gonzalez remains at large, in-
vestigators say.
Sanchez and Perez were
charged with stabbing Ruiz af-
ter two different fights. Police
said one fight on Jan. 15 ended
inSanchez gettingthe better of
Ruiz.
The men were charged with
disorderly conduct. They then
weregoingtosettlethedispute
with a handshake or a fight
without weapons.
The men met on Jan. 16, and
a fight erupted outside of Penn
Palace, a tavern on North
Wyoming and Green streets in
Hazleton, leaving Ruiz and
Hope, 23, dead.
Police say Hope was shot
and killed in the fight by Gon-
zalez.

A bill passed Wednesday in the
state Senate would require all
rather than some health insurers
to get state approval for large rate
hikes on individual and small
groupplansbutwill dolittletocurb
rising insurance
costsandevenless
to allow consum-
ers to challenge
those increases, a
health care advo-
cacy groupsays.
Representatives
of the Pennsylvania Health Access
Network met with The Times
LeaderEditorial BoardonWednes-
daytodiscusstheirconcernsabout
Senate Bill 1336 and the nearly
identical House Bill 1983, which is
expected to go to the House floor
for a vote next week.
BothbillswouldrequirestateIn-
surance Department review and
approval of any rate increase of 10
percent or more for individual and
small group plans to ensure they
are justified. The review could be
upto45days.
Currently, state
approval is required
only for not-for-prof-
it companiessuchas
BlueCross. For-prof-
it companiessuchas
Aetnacanraiserates
at will. Only six oth-
erstatesdontreviewrateincreases
for all small-groupplans.
If the state does not change its
laws tocomply withthe federal Af-
fordable Care Act, which requires
review of all insurer rate increases
of 10 percent or more, reviewpow-
ers fall tothe federal government.
Antoinette Kraus, project direc-
tor of the Pennsylvania Health Ac-
cess Network, said Pennsylvania
should regulate its insurers, given
that the state ranked ninth nation-
ally in the share of rate filings 37
percent that were reduced or
withdrawn by not-for-profit insur-
ance companies during review
processes.
Whats troubling for small-busi-
ness owners and consumer advo-
catesisthat thebillswouldweaken
other consumer protections, said
network education coordinator
Athena Ford.
Fordsaidtheinsurancecommis-
sioner could choose not to review
anyrateincreasefilingslessthan10
percent. She also pointed out that
an insurance company that has a
rateincreaserejectedcanrequest a
public hearing to ask why, but a
small-business owner who has to
paytherateincreasecant request a
public hearingtohave it justified.
Fordsaidthenetworksupported
an amendment by state Sen. Jim
Ferlo, D-Pittsburgh, toincreasethe
review period to 60 days and re-
quire a public comment period for
any size rate increase request.
The amendment was defeated
34-15 on Wednesday, with all Re-
publican and five Democrat sen-
ators opposing it. Locally, John
Yudichak, D-Plymouth Township
voted for it; Lisa Baker, R-Lehman
Township, votedagainst.

WEST PITTSTON -- Several
residents at Tuesdays borough
council meeting spoke out about
confusion and frustration in the
wake of the September flood.
Steven Chervenitski brought a
letter residents on his street had
received concerning permits and
inspections for code enforce-
ments. He said he was not told
he needed inspections and per-
mits.
Solicitor Mark W. Bufalino
said the borough has been re-
quiring permits since the begin-
ning for flood plain protection,
to comply with code compliance
laws.
Council Vice President Pete
Musinski said residents were
told they needed permits and the
fee was waived. If permits are not
acquired and work is done, the
Federal Emergency Manage-
ment Agency can fine residents
and recall the money they previ-
ously gave for repairs, he said.
The borough has more than
800 damaged homes, and only
about 120 permits have been is-
sued.
Chervenitski also said he had
been told contradicting informa-
tion. A firefighter who does in-
spections himself, Chervenitski
said he believes the borough
code enforcement officer Jeff Re-
mas is enforcing codes improper-
ly.
He said he spent a lot of money
rewiring his house and now
thinks a lot of that money didnt
have to be spent.
Council stated it needed to
look into the claim of wrong in-
formation, but did not comment
further.
But resident Michael Reiher
complained of the amount of
misinformation amongst the
people, the contractors, and
amongst even the offices. He
called for better borough com-
munication.
Reiher said there were no
written, clear rules of what to
do from the borough, and many
residents at the meeting agreed.
Bufalino said the borough
code officer and FEMA are the
ones to provide recommenda-
tions on what to do. On borough
communication, Bufalino said
there is a difference of opinion.
Denisco and Musinski said
they will followup with FEMAto
see if the offer to have a town
meeting with FEMA is still avail-
able and they will start consider-
ing a date.
A portion of the borough was
flooded with several feet of water
when the Susquehanna River
rose to record heights in the
wake of tropical storm Lee.
In another matter, the mayor
announced the borough now has
two police cars patrolling round
the clock.
Due to break-ins and burglar-
ies still occurring after Septem-
bers flood, Denisco asked resi-
dents to call 911 if they see any
suspicious person or activity, no
matter howsmall you think it is.
The mayor said the borough
wishes to get a handle on it as
fast as we could.

Every resident has right
to oppose Sunday hunting
I
n his response to my letter to the editor
concerning the expansion of hunting on
Sundays and property owners rights
that will be adversely affected, writer G.F.
Schutz makes several statements that
require a response.
I have never ignored the fact that hunt-
ing already is permitted on Sunday for
coyotes, fox and crows. I have mentioned it
many times, just not in that particular
letter. Having been awakened at the crack
of dawn by fusillades from shooters killing
crows in the summer months (when dawn
comes very early), I am well aware of the
activity. Coyotes, in fact, essentially have
no closed season and can be killed any-
time, with some very minor exclusions.
I fail to see what the mandatory orange
requirements for non-hunters on game
lands have to do with the issue of hunting
on Sunday or property owners rights. I see
hunters throughout the various seasons,
on both public and private property, who
fail to obey the orange mandates.
That hunting club members might own
acreage yet cannot hunt for species other
than the aforementioned on Sunday is not
pertinent either. Hunting clubs have no
special rights beyond those of non-hunting
property owners. In general, no property
owner has any special privilege, let alone
right, to hunt any wildlife, except in cer-
tain situations they may forego the buying
of a license.
All wildlife, including the small percent-
age deemed game, is held in common
trust by the commonwealth via the Penn-
sylvania Constitution. If the majority of
Pennsylvanians object to expanding hunt-
ing on Sunday, or any other use concern-
ing our wildlife, that is our prerogative.

All children deserve
to be part of a team
M
y son recently signed up to play bas-
ketball at the Catholic Youth Center.
The other teams already had eight
players, so the CYC placed him on the
team with only seven players to even out
all the teams.
We were told to come to practice on a
Wednesday. My son showed up only to be
told that the coach apparently didnt want
my son on his team. How fair is this, that a
child can be rejected to play basketball?
What, because he isnt a teachers kid or he
wasnt on the invite list of top players, he
isnt good enough to be on the team?
Kids should be able to play without the
politics. My son loves the game.
Lets let kids be kids and not little pro
athletes!

BY NOW, most folks in Penn-
sylvania know that the Joint
Select Committee on Deficit
Reduction (commonly
known as the super commit-
tee) did not meet its goal of
finding $1.2 trillion in deficit
reduction. To say that I am disappointed is a
huge understatement.
As one of the 12 members of the super
committee, I approached our assigned task
with cautious optimism. I knew that finding a
bipartisan agreement would be a challenge.
Nevertheless, I felt that the committee present-
ed an invaluable opportunity to put our federal
government on a sustainable fiscal path, and
we could not afford to waste it.
From the outset, I laid out two fundamental
and fairly non-controversial principles to guide
our discussions. The first was simple: Produce
a proposal that achieves the committees goal
of deficit reduction. The second was less obvi-
ous, but just as important: Any deficit reduc-
tion proposal must encourage the job creation
our economy desperately needs. With the
countrys unemployment still too high, the last
thing we needed was a proposal that would
weaken our already struggling economy.
I also believed that our unique circumstance
called for a unique compromise. Bipartisan
commissions had come and gone before the
super committee and failed. If Republicans and
Democrats huddled in their respective corners
and refused to budge, the biggest losers in this
process wouldnt be the so-called super com-
mittee it would be the American people.
That is why I drafted a proposal that put a
genuine compromise on the table on both the
spending and the revenue sides of the equa-
tion.
On the spending side, Republicans identified
several trillions of dollars in sensible, respon-
sible reductions that actually would have
solved our fiscal crisis. In the face of fierce
Democratic opposition, we agreed to scale
back our proposal to only $750 billion in cuts
over the next decade less than 2 percent of
what our government is projected to spend
over the next 10 years.
On the revenue side, we offered a plan that
would reform our broken tax code and create
millions of jobs in the process. The proposal
replaced our current monstrosity of a tax code
with a simpler and fairer version that would
have lowered tax rates for all Americans while
eliminating special-interest deductions, write-
offs and loopholes. This proposal would have
spurred our small businesses to expand and
hire new workers and encouraged creative,
hardworking Americans to open new busi-
nesses.
Furthermore, this reform would have been
permanent so that job creators across America
would know they would not be subject to the
biggest tax hike in American history, which is
looming a mere 14 months away.
Finally, we offered to meet our Democratic
colleagues part way, proposing to use this tax
reform as a way to generate tax revenue for
deficit reduction. Even the second-highest
ranking Democrat in the Senate described my
compromise offer as a breakthrough.
Unfortunately, my Democratic colleagues on
the Joint Select Committee werent interested,
insisting on a minimum of a $1 trillion tax
increase. My Republican colleagues and I felt
that imposing a $1 trillion tax increase on our
struggling economy would be devastating to
our already overburdened workers and busi-
nesses and thus a clear violation of one of
the two principles I laid out from the begin-
ning.
Even though the super committee is over, I
dont intend to give up. Over the course of
many conversations, we developed many
common-sense ideas that I will bring to my
Democratic and Republican colleagues who
did not serve on the super committee. I hope
to work with members on both sides of the
aisle to find ways to reduce our deficit without
crushing our fragile economy.

COMMENTARY
U . S . S E N . P A T T O O M E Y
O
BSERVERS OF THE
current showdown in
Washington, D.C.,
neednot betooclever
to realize that Republicans and
Democrats in Congress both
want to extend the payroll-tax
cut another year.
Democrats have been fight-
ing to extend the break for
workers and employers. The
tax would boost the amount of
spending money available to
160 million mostly middle-
class workers and spur the
economy.
Deficit-focused Republicans
have admitted 2012 is the
wrong year for the higher rate
to be reinstated.
With the economy so precar-
ious, motives do not matter.
Meeting in the middle does. If
both parties are willing to ex-
tendthe break, they shouldpay
for its cost with a mix of ideas
advocated by both sides.
Democrats on Monday of-
fereda planthey will have tore-
cast. Instead of reducing the
payroll tax for employers and
workers, the partys latest iter-
ation would only retain the cut
for employees.
No, the payroll-tax holiday
should benefit both employees
and employers.
The estimated $1,000 saved
by families annually flows di-
rectly into the economy via
purchases of foodandapplianc-
es and payment of rent.
Both sides agree that any ex-
tension of the tax break be paid
for. That could be accom-
plished with commensurate
cuts, as Republicans propose,
including freezing federal
workers pay and reducing the
federal civilian workforce.
Democrats would cover the
cost with a surtax on the
wealthy. That is workable on
those with salaries of $5 mil-
lion a year or more instead of
the $1 million a year proposed.
Mix and match ideas from
both sides to continue the tax
break and pay for it another
year.
The Seattle Times
OTHER OPINION: U.S. ECONOMY
Payroll-tax cut
should be kept
S
TATEDEPARTMENT
of Public Welfare offi-
cials have been doing a
bang-up job lately.
But thats onlyif their march-
ing orders have been changed
from helping the neediest
Pennsylvanians to letting thou-
sands drop through gaping
holes in the social safety net.
With a mandate from Gov.
Tom Corbett and
budget-conscious
lawmakers to help
squeeze $470million
in savings from the
states $10.6 billion
in welfare spending,
its probably no sur-
prise that the main
focus of welfare offi-
cials has been on
how they can trim
the ranks of those
who receive aid.
Inthat vein, a topaidetowel-
farechief GaryD. Alexander re-
cently pointed with apparent
pride at the fact that more than
113,000 people had been
purged from the rolls of Med-
icaid, the government-funded
health insurance program that
serves some 2.2 million poor,
elderly and disabled residents.
The aide told state legisla-
tors that DPW staffers had
achieved this feat, which saved
taxpayers $34 million, through
stepped-up reviews of Medi-
caid recipients eligibility, then
terminating coverage for those
who no longer qualified. About
4,000 had died, while others
had moved out of state.
Of course, it would be great
if the vast majority of reviews
determined that so many peo-
ple including 20,000-plus
children had boot-strapped
themselves into the middle-
class. However, social-service
advocates tell a
different, more
plausible story:
They say depleted
welfare staffs sim-
ply havent kept
up with paper-
work and a balky
computer system,
resulting in thou-
sands of cutoffs
for people who,
rightfully,
shouldnt have
been cut.
If the advocates are right
that most children cut from
Medicaid eventually will re-
store their coverage, the Cor-
bett budget-cutting strategy is
a cruel gambit for those kids
and families trying to meet
their medical needs in the in-
terim. It would be far better to
enact a moratorium on termi-
nating childrens coverage un-
til the DPWs paperwork back-
log is cleared completely.
The Philadelphia Inquirer
OTHER OPINION: MEDICAID
Welfare mandate
puts kids at risk
It would be far
better to enact a
moratorium on
terminating
childrens coverage
until the DPWs
paperwork backlog

nals, including now-convicted
child pornography producer Pin-
to.
When asked by his attorney,
Bernie Brown, why he felt that
way about them, Simonson re-
sponded, Everybody should
feel that way about them. They
hurt little kids.
Simonson testified for 31 min-
utes on the third day of the at-
tempted-homicide trial. He
claimed several times that he
blacked out during the Aug. 8,
2010 attack in which he alleged-
ly stomped on Pintos head at
least 15 times, leaving him with
severe brain damage.
Prosecutors Paul Ware and
Shane Scanlon argued to the
contrary. They cited Simonsons
written statements given to
Scranton Police Det. Joseph Laf-
ferty in which the defendant re-
called punching Pinto, stomping
on his head, pausing to try to
open Pintos cell door in order to
reach inmate Jonathan Brown-
lee, and then returning to stomp
on Pintos head once again.
Simonson also allegedly told
investigators he used a bottle to
prop his cell door open in order
to reach Pinto when he returned
from a recreation yard.
Pinto, a protective-custody in-
mate, and Simonson, an admin-
istrative-custody inmate, would
likely not have crossed paths
otherwise.
Simonson will return to the
Lackawanna County Cour-
thouse next week on a simple
assault charge for head butting
protective custody inmate Mi-
chael Strackbein in December
2010. Charges related to his
Sept. 28 escape from the Lacka-
wanna County Prison will likely
not be heard until 2012.
On Wednesday, Ware restated
his belief that Simonson brought
the Pinto case to trial in an ef-
fort to set up his escape from
the county jail.

The new conditions
ordered by Senior Magis-

by a local judge.
Also Wednesday, The
Second Mile said in a
statement that it has lost
significant financial sup-
port and that some em-
ployees will be laid off
over the next several
months.
It didnt say how many
staffers would be cut.
attorney General Linda
Kelly said in a statement.
Beginning with outings
to football games and
gifts; they later included
physical contact that es-
calated to sexual as-
saults.
One of the new alleged
victims, dubbed Victim 9
by prosecutors, claims
he was first assaulted in
2004, and the other,
called Victim 10, told the
grand jury he was as-
saulted after being re-
ferred to Second Mile in
1997.
The ninth accuser, cur-
rently 18, was 11 or 12
when he first met Sand-
usky in 2004. Sandusky
took him to Penn State
football games and gave
him gifts and money, and
later sexually assaulted
him during overnight
stays in a basement bed-
room in Sanduskys
home, the grand jury
said.
The accuser said Sand-
usky forced the boy to
perform oral sex and at-
tempted on at least 16
occasions to anally pene-
trate him, sometimes
successfully. The victim
testified that on at least
one occasion he
screamed for help, know-
ing that Sanduskys wife
was upstairs, but no one
ever came to help him,
the grand jury report
said.
The 10th accuser told
the grand jury he was re-
ferred to The Second
Mile in 1997, when he
was 10 and experiencing
problems at home. He al-
so attended Penn State
games, spent time at
Sanduskys house, and
was subjected to wres-
tling sessions in the
basement of the home
that led to Sandusky per-
forming oral sex on the
boy, authorities said.
The accuser also de-
tailed incidents at a pool
on the Penn State cam-
pus, and a time when
Sandusky allegedly ex-
posed himself in a car
and requested oral sex
from the boy.
As he left his arraign-
ment Wednesday in Bel-
lefonte, Sandusky did
not say anything or make
eye contact with about
two dozen reporters and
photographers. Agents
from the state Attorney
Generals Office then
drove him to the Centre
County Jail after he was
unable to post bail.

He said the association has
2,700 members but there are an
estimated 7,000 to 8,000 Pearl
Harbor survivors. Local chapters
will function as long as they have

er socially, but they will no longer
have a formal, national organiza-
tion.
The groups announcement
came as President Barack Obama

a statement proclaiming Wednes-

membrance Day. The attack
brought the United States into
World War II.
Their tenacity helped define

On Tuesday, an urn containing
the ashes of Lee Soucy was placed

and those who do not comply, ac-
cording to the Federal Emergen-
cy Management Agency, will not
be able to receive flood relief
funding and will not be eligible
for future FEMA considerations.
Also, owners of homes in the

Supervisors further explained
that after the application is filled
out and reviewed, funds may be
made available to those who
qualify.
If you agree to go through
with it, theres going to be x
amount of dollars possibly to as-
sist you. How much they will ac-

Philadelphia District At-
torney Seth Williams an-
nounced Wednesday he will
not seek the death penalty
against Mumia Abu-Jamal.
Williams made the an-
nouncement at an 11 a.m.
press conference at the
D.A.s Office building, with
Police Commissioner Char-
les Ramsey, FOP President
John McNesby and Maureen
Faulkner in attendance.
At issue was the U.S. Su-
preme Courts refusal in Oc-
tober to hear a petition by
Williams office seeking to
reinstate the death penalty
against Abu-Jamal.
The ruling meant that, un-
less Williams decided to con-
duct a new sentencing hear-
ing, Abu-Jamal would con-
tinue to serve a life sentence
with no chance of parole.
Williams decided against
a new hearing.
Friday marks 30 years
since Abu-Jamals arrest for
the murder of Philadelphia
Police Officer Daniel Faulkn-
er, who was on patrol Dec. 9,
1981 when he was gunned
down. Maureen Faulkner is
his widow.
Faulkner had pulled over a
car driven by William Cook,
Abu-Jamals brother in Cen-
ter City. Abu-Jamal, moon-
lighting as a cabdriver, rec-
ognized his brothers car, ran
toward them, and shot
Faulkner, witnesses testi-
fied.
A gunfight ensued, and
Abu-Jamal was struck by a
bullet from Faulkners gun.
Abu-Jamal was found
slumped on a curb.
Abu-Jamal has drawn sup-
port from around the world
by those who believe either
he is innocent or that his
trial was flawed.
Faulkners widow and the
police union are steadfast in
their belief in Abu-Jamals
guilt.
Abu-Jamal is being held at
the state prison in Greene
County in Western Pennsyl-
vania. His supporters were
elated, but still pressing for
more.
"The D.A. may think that
the case can be laid to rest
by sending Mumia off to life
in prison," said a statement
by We the People, which
supports Abu-Jamal and be-
lieves he is innocent. "But an
aroused public ... is ready to
challenge anew the entire
trial."
Abu-Jamal spared death

execution in killing of

T
he previously-favored Wyoming
Valley West Spartans are done,
finished, flailing helplessly in
their quest to claim a basketball crown
without Eugene Lewis around.
At least, thats the way basketball
fans on the West Side of the Wyoming
Valley want to make it sound.
Really, who could blame them?
The Spartans seem to go into every
boys basketball season thinking this
will be their big breakout year, only to
break hearts come playoff time.
Valley West was supposed to play its
way to a Wyoming Valley Conference
championship behind their star Lewis,
the leagues Division I scoring champ
last season.
But it appears Lewis will now do his
scoring in Division II.
The highly-accomplished athlete,
who is verbally committed to play
football for Penn State next fall, trans-
ferred to Meyers High School this
week just days before Fridays boys
basketball season opener for the Spar-
tans. The move came after his father
Eugene Lewis Sr. a minister was
recently transferred to a church near
Meyers and stepped down from his
post as a Valley West assistant coach.
That leaves the Spartans without a
prayer.
Right?
I feel very good right now with this
team, said Valley West coach George
Reimiller, whose team practiced with-
out Lewis on Wednesday. Weve got
our kids to fill in all the slots we need.
Lets just sit down and look at Wyom-
ing Valley West and see what happens
without Eugene. And well see what
happens with him if he comes back.
A return to the Spartans seems like a
pipe dream at this point, despite the
fact that Valley West has not signed off
on the PIAA transfer waiver that would
allow Lewis to take the court with the
Mohawks.
Lewis would have to re-enroll at
Valley West, and likely would re-file a
transfer waiver that would seem more
sports-driven than the one he asked for
this week if he wanted to shoot for the
Spartans again.
He really didnt have to leave,
Reimiller insisted.
But the Spartans dont have to go to
pieces without Lewis.
Theyll have sharp-shooting senior
guard James McCann himself one of
the best pure players in the conference
to knock down bombs from the out-
side and nimble 6-foot-7 senior center
Jonathan Gimble will take care of
things just fine under the basket. The
Spartans will complement them with a
nice blend of role players who mix size
with speed.
And their coach encourages passion
for the game, because hes in the game
to produce winners, not win titles.
I was never concerned with the
bulls eye on the back to begin with,
said Reimiller, who is sure to put to-
gether a team to contend with. Ive
loved all my kids since Ive been coach-
ing basketball. It only gets more in-
teresting as we go. Whether Im a los-
ing coach or a winning coach, Im
proud of my kids.
A championship team means noth-
ing to me, Reimiller continued. Im
enjoying working with student ath-
letes, and lets see where the chips fall.
Thats not to say the aspirations of
the Spartans will come crashing down
after losing their best player.
They better stay focused if they
want to play the game, Reimiller said.
I like Eugene Sr. I like Eugene.
Even without them, theres still
enough at Valley West to like the Spar-
tans chances.

Transfer wont
sink Spartans
hopes this year
The transfer of Eugene Lewis from
Wyoming Valley West to Meyers is head-
ing to a hearing before the District 2 Ath-
letic Committee.
Wyoming Valley West refused Wednes-
day to approve the PIAA transfer waiver
forLewis, atwo-sport starwhohasverbal-
ly committed to play
football at Penn State.
Lewisisalsoastandout
onthebasketball court,
and Valley Wests deci-
sionmeans he wont be
able to play in Meyers
season opener Satur-
day night against
Scranton Prep.
All I can tell you, and I apologize, but
every comment has tocome through(Su-
perintendent) Chuck (Suppon), Valley
West Principal Erin Keating said. He is
theonlyonewhocanofficiallycomment.
Suppon did not return a message seek-
ing comment.
Wheneverastudenttransfersschools, a
PIAA transfer waiver must be signed by
principals of both schools stating the
move wasnt for athletic purposes.
Valley West is challenging the PIAA
transfer waiver with the concern to the
sport of basketball, Meyers Athletic Di-
rector Mike Namey said.
Atopnational recruit infootball, Lewis
isalsoconsideredoneof theWyomingVal-
ley Conferences best basketball players.
The 6-foot-3 senior led Division I in scor-
ing last season.
Lewis played for Valley West against
Meyers in a scrimmage on Monday, the
same day his father, Eugene Sr., was at
Meyers inquiring about enrolling his son.
Lewis Sr. was also an assistant basketball
coach at Valley West, but according to
head coach George Reimiller, Lewis Sr.
told another assistant that Monday was
hislast dayonthecoachingstaff. LewisSr.
was a basketball standout at SouthAlaba-
ma and a second-round pick of the Utah
Jazz in1989.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. Alabamas Trent
Richardson wasnt a starter when he ar-
rivedonthe scene.
He was biding his time behind tailback
Mark Ingram, who was on his way to be-
coming Alabamas first Heisman Trophy
winner. But Ingram knew long before Ri-
chardson was selected as a finalist that the
Crimson Tide might have another candi-
date waitinginthe wings.
Thena freshman, Richardsonbroke four
tackles en route to a 52-yard touchdown
against Arkansastwoyearsagoinarunthat
has only growninthe retelling.
He broke like seven tackles and then
took it up the sideline for like 40 yards, In-
gram recalled. I was like, Yeah, thats not
really normal. I figured that we had a spe-
cial guy.
A program that collected by its own
count 12 national titles before fielding a
Heisman winner now is hoping for its sec-
ond in three seasons. Because of Ingrams
looming presence, Richardson was a star

BINGHAMTON, N.Y. Withless than
nine minutes to play, Wilkes-Barre/
Scranton Penguins forward Matt Rust
foundhimself onthe penalty kill trying to
make his first AHL goal held up.
Rust scored five minutes into Wednes-
days 1-0 win against the Binghamton
Senators, giving the Penguins a lead they
would carry deep into the third period.
And thats when things got frantic. Af-
ter a series of end-to-end rushes and dra-
matic saves from both goaltenders,
things came to a grinding halt when Joey
Mormina was whistled for slashing at
11:06. That put thePenguins onthepenal-
ty kill andthe Senators smelledblood, fir-
ing everything they could at goaltender
Scott Munroe.
Munroemadefour saves onthepenalty
kill and Rust teamed with Brandon DeFa-
zio to keep Binghamton off the board and
give the Penguins the narrow win.
The victory improves the Penguins to
13-7-1-4 and 4-0-1-0 against Binghamton
this season. The win, which was the Pen-
guins 10th road victory, also puts them
back in first place in the East Division,
breaking out of a three-way tie with Her-
shey and Norfolk, who were both idle.
Not only was it Munroes thirdshutout,
he now has won all three of his starts
against Binghamtonthis season. Wednes-
days effort was the second time he
blanked the Senators.
The 25-save effort was also the hardest
win of the three.

rience they bring to the pool.
Wyoming Valley West is led
by junior Collin Vest, a two-time
district champion in diving.
Vest scored 442.8 points and a
13th place finish at the PIAA
Class 3A diving championships
at Bucknell University. Vest is
joined by diver Ibrahim Ismail,
who placed third at the District
2 Class 3A Championships.
Collin is extremely talented,
Tribendis said. When you have
someone who is breaking his
own records every year, the
whole team has extremely high
hopes for him. Hes extremely
talented, and he continues to
show hes one of the top ath-
letes in the state.
The Spartans also return Tom
Missal, who finished third and
fourth in the 200 IM and 100
butterfly, respectively. Alex and
Cory Himlin will also be con-
tributing factors.
Dallas junior Marcus Wagner
seeks to rehash his performance
from last years district cham-
pionships, where he won the
200 free and 500 free races.
Joining him is Brian Stepniak
after his second-place finish in
the 100 backstroke a year ago.
Mosier said her team lacks
some of the depth from a year
ago but, with a strong junior
class, the Mountaineers should
contend with the Spartans for a
conference title.
Its numbers and quality,
said Mosier. Well have to see
how some of our young guys
fare. Its early to tell.
Berwick and Hanover Area
both look to compete for wins
despite low numbers that will
plague them against some of the
larger programs. The Bulldogs
Josh Kelley took eighth in the
200 free at districts last season.
Hazleton Area brings back
most of its roster from a year
ago and should be in the top
tier in the conference. Junior
Ryan Paisley placed second in
the 50 and 100 free races at
districts, and sophomore Troy
Valkusky tabbed fourth in the
200 free.
Holy Redeemer has a young
group that is heralded by Ha-
nover Area transfer Mike Dubin-
ski, who took eighth in the 100
For a program as dominant as
Wyoming Valley Wests boys
swimming and diving, it doesnt
happen very often that the Spar-
tans find themselves looking up
at the Wyoming Valley Confer-
ence Southern Division stand-
ings.
Even rarer, Frank Tribendis
squad found itself residing in
second for the third consecutive
season.
This time around, Tribendis
Valley West squad looks poised
to claim its first division cham-
pionship since the 2007-08 sea-
son. The Spartans return their
entire roster from last years
District 2 Class 3A champion-
ship-winning team, creating one
of the deepest groups in the
Wyoming Valley West coachs
32-year coaching career.
They have the potential to
be one of the best of all the
teams I coached, Tribendis
said. But potential only means
that you havent done anything
yet.
Last season, an upstart Dallas
program knocked the Spartans
from the ranks with an 8-0 re-
cord. Due to classification stan-
dards, Wyoming Valley West
couldnt square up against the
Mountaineers at the District 2
championship. Instead, Dallas
claimed a District 2 Class 2A
title, holding a commanding
124.5 lead over second-place
Holy Redeemer.
We were mostly sophomores
last year, Dallas coach Ro-
mayne Mosier said. Experience
is the art of maintaining the
accomplishments youve already
achieved. The work has come
along.
In the Northern Division,
Delaware Valley edged Abing-
ton Heights for a WVC title
with an 8-0 record.
Southern Division
The Spartans are sure to be
favorites with the level of expe-
free as a freshman at last years
district race. The Royals took
second overall at the Class 2A
championships.
Lake-Lehman and Wyoming
Seminary both feature first-year
head coaches. Nancy Edkins
leads a rebuilding Black Knight
team. John Eidam takes over a
Blue Knight team that boasts
German transfer Philipp Metzg-
er, who should be competitive
in the backstroke and relay
events.
After posting its best finish at
the district meet in school histo-
ry, Crestwood suspended its
swimming and diving program
weeks before the start of the
season, according to Crestwood
athletic director Tony Moze-
leski.
Mozeleski cited facility con-
cerns as the reason for the sus-
pension. Crestwood used Nanti-
cokes pool as its home facility
last season.
The Comets Joseph Grzech
became the schools first district
champion in over two decades
last season.
Northern Division
Graduation was not kind to
Tunkhannock, who must find a
way to sustain itself following
the losses of district champions
David Novak and Matt Kup-
chunas. The Tigers were two
points shy of capturing the
Class 3A district championship.
Tunkhannock junior Ben
Spencer is the reigning 200 IM
champion at the Class 3A level.
Spencer also placed second in
the 100 breast.
We have a lot of talented
freshmen coming in, Tunk-
hannock coach Tim Mislevy
said. We still look to be com-
petitive in the league. We lost a
lot of seniors.
With reigning division cham-
pion Delaware Valley featuring
just three seniors this season, a
wide-open field is set for the
2011-12 crown. Elk Lake, Abing-
ton Heights and Scranton
should contend for the North-
ern Division championship.
Scranton Prep junior Eddie
Pfaeffle (second, 200 free) is
one of the fastest returning
swimmers in the division.

whenhe scoredhis first AHLgoal
at 4:51 of the first period. With
the faceoff in the Binghamton
end, Rust tried to draw the puck
back to his defensemen, but it
sputtered behind him. He reac-
hed behind with his stick, did a
360 and threw the puck through
the five-hole of Senators goalie
Robin Lehner to put the Pen-
guins up 1-0.
It was a broken play, but I
wanted to make the most out of
it, Rust said.
After a slowstart to the second
period, the Senators picked up
the pace and generated several
scoring chances in the latter
stages. Munroe, who was making
his first start since Nov. 29,
played stellar in net, making sev-
eral great saves, including a stop
on a Corey Cowick wraparound
attempt and a leg save on a Craig
Shira one-timer with less than a
minute left.
Munroe was strong through
the third period, making a stick
save on Stephane Da Costa in
front. The Penguins generated
plenty of scoring chances as well,
including a sequence of point-
blank shots from Eric Tangradi,
Colin McDonald and Alex Grant,
but Lehner saved them all.
But the highlight of the period
was the Penguins penalty kill,
which finished a 4-for-4 night
with two kills in the third.
The last, whichcame withnine
minutes left, saw the Senators
throw several shots at Munroe
while Rust and DeFazio forced
the puck outside for the first min-
ute of the man-advantage.
It was stressful, Rust said.
Youre trying to get in front of a
shot that might be the difference
maker in the game. Being a
younger guy, you dont want to
let the team down.
NOTES
The Penguins signed defen-

Heralded Wyoming Valley
West freshman basketball play-
er Alexis Lewis is no longer on
the team. The 5-foot-8 forward
informed Spartans coach Curt
Lloyd of her decision Wednes-
day afternoon.
Lloyd said that Lewis sent
hima text message prior to the
teampractice early Wednesday
evening. He said she did not
talk to him in person, and did
not give an explanation for her
decision.
The move came two days af-
ter her brother, Eugene Lewis,
dropped off the Wyoming Val-
ley West boys basketball team.
The star player transferred to
Meyers and attended classes at
the school on Wednesday.
The loss of Alexis Lewis is a
key blow to the Spartans. She
was expected to be one of the
premier players in the Wyom-
ing Valley Conference this sea-
son.
I was disappointed, because
I was looking forwardto coach-
ing her for four years, Lloyd
said. Even though I wont
have the opportunity to coach
Alexis, the Wyoming Valley
West basketball program will
still go on. The girls are very
excited and looking forward to
the upcoming season.
Lloyd said he does not know
where Lewis is planning to
transfer. Twooptions appear to
be Meyers andHoly Redeemer.
The Lewis family recently
moved to a residence a short
distance from Meyers High
School. HolyRedeemer is apri-
vate school with a strong girls
basketball tradition.
I dont know anything
about it, Meyers athletic di-
rector Mike Namey said
Wednesday night. I didnt see
her mom or dad today.
Holy Redeemer athletic di-
rector Jim Higgins said
Wednesday night that he is un-
aware of Lewis possibly enroll-
ing at Redeemer.

and played midfield and defense, often
marking opponents top threats.
Jess Newak

down defender for the District 2 runner-
up.
Ann Romanowski
Wyoming Seminary

ished the season with 16 goals and 14
assists for 46 points. During the post-

season, and had a point in nine of her
teams 11 wins.
A
shLeigh Sebia wearing
her blue Wyoming Semi-
nary back-to-back state
champions shirt cried
out a resounding
YEEESSSS! as she received her med-
al.
Its an unbelievable experience, es-
pecially this year, Sebia said of win-
ning a state title. Basically (the medal
presentation) was my four years at Sem
all piled into that one game at that sec-
ond.
Sebia, who topped the area with 34
goals and 23 assists, capped an incred-
ible high school career as The Times
Leader Field Hockey Player of the Year.
Perhaps shell celebrate with a day of
... fishing? Ajunior high profile of Sebia
lists interests that run the gamut of life
water and snow skiing, fishing, col-
lege and pro football fan, suspense nov-
els, writing poetry, scrapbooking, sew-
ing, traveling.
She is hoping for the chance to get
away to a family retreat at Elk Moun-
tain, and do some ice fishing with her
father, Lewis. The standout fromPlains
enjoys family time with mom, Mary Jo,
and siblings Alexa and Anthony, when
possible.
I still love toski andfish, saidSebia,
who has maintained her hobby list and,
Ive definitely developed some more.
Ive been Zumbaing a lot. Im even
teaching a class at school.
Sebia is best knows for her prowess
on the pitch, though. She capped her
state title weekend with her annual trip
to the National Hockey Festival.
The people down there know, Se-
bia saidof the programheldinPhoenix.
You walk by people with your Sem
gear, or with (coach Karen Klassner)
and theyre coming up to you and say-
ing, Congratulations on the champion-
ship. Great job. Its just an exciting
place to be, and to wear that Sem gear.
You know, it could be the last time I
get to wear it. Its a little bittersweet.
Sebia has a lengthy resume as a soc-
cer, softball and track athlete, but field
hockey is taking her places. She will
play in Scotland during the Christmas
holiday, and is heading to California
early next year.
This summer, she has an extended
trip planned to Chestnut Hill, Mass.
Its going to be great, Sebia said of
attending Boston College. The ACCis
unbelievable. I am very fortunate to
have twogirls fromthe WyomingValley
Conference(HazletonAreas KaylaGar-
zio and Valley Wests Kelcie Hromisin)
to accompany me to BC.
Sebia and friends will play in the na-
tions top conference. Their goal is to
guide the Eagles to unprecedented
heights. Thefirst stepis tobevictorious
inthe ACCTournament, something BC
has not yet accomplished.
Hopefully next year, Sebia said.
The senior knows all about postsea-
son success. Sem won three state
crowns with her, and she has never lost
a state playoff game in 12 starts a re-
cord.
Even this year, when we got to
states, I was talking to (teammate) Ann
(Romanowski) and we just couldnt
even imagine losing, Sebia said. We
kept getting win after win. Its unbeliev-
able to be a part of something like that.
The programhas really spokenfor itself
with its success. Im going to miss it.
Sebia is looking forward to enjoying
the sights and history of Boston, as well
as the culture. She will have renowned
programs coming on campus for her
college sports fix. And her professional
fandoms may be altered for good.
If that happens, just blame Andy
Reid.
One of the things is just that its an
unbelievable city. And they are such
sports fans up there the Red Sox, the
Patriots -- its all about sports.
My team was the Eagles. But Im
starting to keep an eye on the Patriots.
TomBrady is playingunbelievably well,
and they are such a great team, putting
up all those points week after week.
Looking at Sebias career, its obvious
she knows something about great play-
ers and great teams.
Player of the Year Sebia still has busy schedule

PITTSBURGH Hines Ward
doesnt see dominating the Cle-
velandBrowns as simply a part of
his job, but a civic duty.
Our fans tend to work better
on Monday any time we get a
chance tobeat upon(them), the
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver
said with a laugh.
Or Friday, in this case.
The ever-diplomatic Ward is
kidding, of course. True, the
streaking Steelers (9-3) have
turned the series with their long-
time rivals into a decidedly one-
sided affair heading into Thurs-
day nights game at Heinz Field.
Yet ask Ward which of the two
dozen games hes played against
the Browns (4-8) stands out, and
the 14-year veteran quickly
points to Clevelands only win in
the last 15 meetings, a 13-6 victo-
ry two years ago that effectively
ended Pittsburghs bid for a play-
off berth and consecutive Super
Bowl titles.
They have beat us in some
cases where we felt like we could
just beat themjust because weve
hadsuccess over theyears, Ward
said.
The Steelers have wonsevenof
their last eight following a 2-2
start and need to keep the pres-
sure on Baltimore in the race for
the AFC North title.
Pittsburgh put together per-
haps its best performance of the
season in a 35-7 beatdown of Cin-
cinnati last week. The defense
shut down the upstart Bengals
behind James Harrisons three
sacks while quarterback Ben
Roethlisberger hit Mike Wallace
for a pair of scores.
Its proof, the Steelers insist,
that they havent played their
best football yet. Maybe, but
their best football might not be
required against the Browns,
who have looked overwhelmed
and overmatched against quality
opponents.
Pulling off anupset onnational
television would do more than
give first-year head coach Pat
Shurmur the signature victory he
so desperately craves, but also
provide quarterback Colt McCoy
with a much-needed boost.
McCoy is 0-7 against AFC
North opponents in his brief ca-
reer. While the teams issues go
far beyond McCoys inexperi-
ence, he hasnt exactly taken a
step forward in his second sea-
son.
Cleveland is 30th in the league
in total offense and McCoy is
30th in the league in yards per at-
tempt as the Browns have strug-
gled to create big plays of any va-
riety. Holding onto the ball has
been an issue. According to Shur-
mur, Cleveland leads the NFL in
dropped passes, not exactly the
way to instill confidence in a
quarterback going through some
verypublic andverypainful
growing pains.
The Baltimore Ravens pum-
meled McCoy in a 24-10 win last
week, knocking him down re-
peatedly and spraining his right
knee. McCoydidnt miss somuch
as a snap in practice during the
shortened week, but hell be fac-
ing a defense thats starting to
showsigns of its usual December
nastiness.
Theyre tough physical guys,
they fly around, theyre a veteran
group and they play together
well, McCoy said. They know
the twists, they knowthe blitzes,
they know which gaps youre go-
ing to in.

long before he was a starter.
Compact, powerful and with a
sprinters burst, Richardsonjoins
LSU cornerback Tyrann Math-
ieu, Wisconsin tailback Montee
Ball and quarterbacks Andrew
Luckof StanfordandRobert Grif-
finIII of Baylor asfinalistsfor this
years Heisman, which will be
presentedSaturday inNewYork.
As a child you dream of win-
ning the Heisman or MVP at any
level, and now that its here and
my team has worked hard for
this, andI knowI workedhardfor
it, Richardson said. Just to rep-
resent for Alabama is going to be
an honor for real, and to repre-
sent for (Florida hometown)
Pensacola. Its pretty big for me.
My name will be in the books if I
do win.
Alongside Ingram, his former
backfield mate now with the
New Orleans Saints.
Richardson picked up where
his predecessor left off, powering
the Tides offense into a national
title shot Jan. 9 against LSU.
Since Archie Griffin won his
second straight in 1975 for Ohio
State, only Southern California
has had two Heisman winners in
a three-year span: Charles White
and Marcus Allen (1979, 81) and
Carson Palmer (02) and Matt
Leinart (04).
Richardson has run for 1,583
yards and has 20 rushing touch-
downs and three as a receiver.
Not bad for a first-year starter,
who never let on publicly if he
minded running in second place
for two seasons. His handling of
that situation endeared Richard-
son to teammates.
The first word that comes to
my head when I think of Trent is
teammate, Alabama left tackle
Barrett Jones said. He really is
the ultimate teammate. Not
many guys would have had the
attitude he had these past two
years. Probablywouldhave start-
ed anywhere else in the country
just with the talent level he had.
He never said anything com-
plaining. He was always worried
about the team. All of us who
have been here for a while were
really excited for him to step up
this year and for this to be his
team. His humility and the kind
of teammate he is really makes
you want to block for a guy like
that.
Richardson said he just really
had to humble himself. He still
racked up 1,451 yards and 14
touchdowns and two Sports
Illustrated covers before be-
coming a starter when Ingram
left for the NFL, another move
that Richardson soon could du-
plicate.
The 5-foot-11, 224-pounder has
gotten plenty of attention for his
weight room prowess Tide
coaches limit himto 475 pounds
on the bench press and 600-
pound squats and ability to
steamroll defenders or carry sev-
eral for extra yardage.
Despite Richardsons physical
style, coach Nick Saban scoffs at
labeling him a bruiser.
Youre talking about a guy to
me that shouldnt be pigeon-
holedintoa guy that is a bruising
back because to me hes so much
more, Saban said. Hes a great
leader on our team. Hes a hard
worker. He sets a great example.
He cares about the other players
ontheteam. Hescertainlyavery,
veryproductive, competitiveguy
who has been probably as good a
player as Ive ever had the oppor-
tunity to coach in terms of the
whole package.
Bruising back would be an in-
sult towhat heis, eventhoughhe
does that pretty well, too, be-
cause hes tough and hes physi-
cal.
Richardson made a strong fi-
nal statement with a career-best
203-yard game in the final romp
against Auburn. It also provided
a so-called Heisman moment,
when he halted his momentum
andstraight-armedadefender on
thesidelinethenracedacross the
field for a 57-yarder.
Against Mississippi, he shed
twotacklers, cut over totheright
sideline and stopped short to
shake one defender around the
10 before sprinting to the end
zone to punctuate a 76-yard run.
That was awesome, Jones
said. The Iron Bowl run was
awesome, too, but the Ole Miss
run where he did the little move
at the end, that was a lot of fun to
watch.
Richardson also had a solid
overall effort against No. 1 LSU.
He ran 23 times for 89 yards and
had five catches for 80 yards.

NEW YORK The new Big
East will span four time zones,
3,000 miles from coast to coast
and, eventually, have 12 teams.
The beleaguered, ever-chang-
ing conference hopes it all adds
up to a billion-dollar TV contract
and a spot among the best foot-
ball leagues in the nation.
The Big East introduced Boise
State, San Diego State, Houston,
SMU and Central Florida as its
newest members, effective 2013.
The BigEast conference is the
first truly national college foot-
ball conference, Commissioner
John Marinatto said Wednesday
during a teleconference with the
university leaders from the five
schools. Boise State President
Bob Kustra said the announce-
ment was a significant step for-
ward in the evolution of Boise
State University and our football
program.
The Big East, depleted by the
planned departures of Syracuse,
Pittsburgh and West Virginia, is
trying to rebuild as a 12-team
football conference with a west-
ern division.
Its been a slowprocess that be-
gan in September, and there is
still work to be done.
Boise State and San Diego
State, which currently play in the
Mountain West Conference, will
join the Big East only for football.
Houston, SMU and UCF will be
leavingConference USAandjoin-
ing the Big East in all sports.
We have ambitious plans, and
this expansionis a great stride to-
ward reaching them, Marinatto
said.
The Big East has also beenpur-
suing Air Force and Navy as foot-
ball only members, but it seems
Air Force is no longer a possibil-
ity. Lt. Gen. Mike Gould, the su-
perintendent of the academy,
said the school will stay in the
Mountain West.
We belong out West and for
now thats where were going to
stay, he told the AP.
Boise State has reportedly
worked out a deal to have its oth-
er sports teams compete in the
Western Athletic Conference,
where its football team dominat-
ed for 10 seasons. San Diego
State is reportedly finalizing a
deal to have its other teams com-
pete in the Big West.
The Big East has only five foot-
ball members committed to the
conference beyond this season:
Connecticut, Cincinnati, Louis-
ville, Rutgers and USF. It also has
seven schools that do not play
major college football and Notre
Dame, whichcompetes intheBig
East in everything but football.
Marinatto has pledged to hold
Pittsburgh, Syracuse and West
Virginia in the conference until
2014, in accordance with the Big
East bylaws. West Virginia wants
to join the Big 12 in 2012 and has
sued the Big East to get an early
release.

eight assists, and Newak fin-
ished the season with eight
goals and five assists.
Also, the Pennsylvania High
School Field Hockey Coaches
officially released its 2011 All-
State Field Hockey Team on
Wednesday, and 27 players
from the Wyoming Valley Con-
ference were honored.
Class 2A state champion
Wyoming Seminary had three
first-team honorees in seniors
Ann Romanowski, Sebia and
Kristian Stefanides. District 2
Class 2A runner-up Crestwood
also featured three players on
the first team in Chandler Ack-
ers, Dessoye and Newak. Sis-
ters Ashley and Lauren Bernar-
di earned first-team berths for
Holy Redeemer.
In Class 3A, future Boston
College teammates Kayla Gar-
zio of Hazleton Area and Hro-
misin both claimed spots on the
states first team.
Maura Anistranski, Sauni Da-
venport and Casey Dolan took
second-team spots for the Spar-
tans, and Coughlins Caitlin
Wood joined them.
State champion Wyoming
Seminarys Kristen Mericle was
among Class 2A second-team
honorees. She was joined by
Crestwood goalie Danielle De-
Spirito, Dallas Ashley Dunbar
and Kirby Szalkowski, and Holy
Redeemers Marnie Kusaka-
vitch and Alexandria Malacari.

Consumers borrow more
Americans stepped up their borrow-
ing in October to buy cars and attend
college, and they also charged a little
more to their credit cards. The second
straight monthly gain in overall bor-
rowing suggests consumers are grow-
ing more confident in the economy
ahead of the crucial holiday buying
season.
The Federal Reserve says total con-
sumer borrowing rose by $7.3 billion.
September and Octobers gains re-
versed a steep drop in borrowing from
August, when it fell by the most in 16
months.
India says no to big boxes
India on Wednesday suspended its
plan to open its huge retail sector to
foreign companies such as Wal-Mart.
The business community had hailed
the initial decision to let foreign firms
own a majority stake in retailers just
two weeks ago. The government and
some economists said foreign retailers
would bring better prices for farmers
and lower prices for consumers.
But opposition parties and even
some members of the governing coali-
tion protested, saying the local mom-
and-pop stores that are the heart of
Indian retailing would be crushed.
Corzine again subpoenaed
A third congressional panel has vot-
ed to subpoena former Sen. Jon Cor-
zine to testify about his role leading
MF Global, the brokerage that failed
this fall.
The oversight panel of the House
Financial Services Committee voted
Wednesday to compel Corzine to testi-
fy at a Dec. 15 hearing.
Corzine is scheduled as a witness at
the House Agriculture panels hearing
Thursday and on Dec. 13 before the
Senate Agriculture Committee.
Cuba embargo hurts hotel
Cuban President Raul Castro has
arrived in Trinidad for a trade summit
with Caribbean leaders and his pres-
ence is forcing a last-minute change in
venue.
The conference has been shifted
from the U.S.-managed Hilton Trinidad
& Conference Centre because the U.S.
economic embargo bars it from provid-
ing services to the Cuban delegation.
The hotel says in a statement that it
was not able to obtain a license that
would exempt it from the 1968 em-
bargo.

BUSINESS S E C T I O N B

There was a time
when technology was
bulky and obtrusive.
Monitors were huge
and clunky. A running
computers fan would
drone incessantly. A
cellphone needed to be slung over
your shoulder.
So little thought was given to form
that, eventually, people became used
to it. Anything with technology need-
ed to be a box or a cube. It needed to
be hard to use, hard to look at and
hard to ignore.
Things improved slowly at first,
until Apple introduced slick computer
designs. PC manufacturers had to
emulate them to keep up. It was now
possible to get a stylish computer, but
they were still the exception, not the
rule. Things had, by the early 2000s,
gotten to the point where the tech-
nology wasnt necessarily obtrusive,
but it didnt look great either.
It was only when things started
getting smaller that manufacturers
started to feel like they had the
breathing room to actually make
things look nice -- not just on the
outside, but the interface as well.
Clunkiness quickly gave way to
smooth functionality. And with that,
something important happened. Peo-
ple who didnt care about technology
started picking up the
devices. Phones be-
came "cool," to the
point they became
almost a wardrobe
accessory. Some Blue-
tooth earpiece manu-
factur-
ers such as Jabra routine-
ly go out of their way to sculpt
their devices. Now even router manu-
facturers are getting into the act. Asus
recently released the RTN56U router,
which looks like nothing so much as a
modern sculpture. And for its capa-
bilities, the $120 price tag is actually
quite reasonable.
As technology becomes more in-
expensive and smaller, devices are
being built into regular household
objects and even clothing. Glasses
contain cameras. Watches contain
phones. James Bond and Q would be
scratching their heads over some of
the gadgetry everyday people have at
their disposal.
And therein lies a problem. In a
world where cameras can fit in eye-
glasses, a GPS chip can be embedded
in your shirt and your cell phone can
serve as a credit card, its relatively
simple for increasingly sophisticated
criminals to eavesdrop, gain access to
your personal information or track
where you are. I suppose the moral is
that as nifty as those new tech toys
are, things arent always as they ap-
pear. In the old days a computer was a
computer, and a camera was a camera.
Not so anymore. If someone can mis-
use a piece of technology, they will.

NEW YORK J.C. Pen-
ney Co. is buying a minority
stake inMartha Stewart Liv-
ing Omnimedia Inc. for
$38.5 million, the latest
move by the department
store to attract newcustom-
ers and perk up lackluster
sales.
Penney is acquiring a16.6
percent stake in the media
and merchandising compa-
ny. Penney will create mini-
Martha Stewart shops with-
in its department stores and
a joint website.
The deal comes at a time
when both brands are aim-
ing to revitalize business.
Penney recently brought on
former Apple Inc. executive
Ron Johnson as CEO. John-
son, who joined the compa-
nys board in August, took
over merchandising and
marketing responsibilities
on Nov. 1.
Penney is buying 11 mil-
lion Martha Stewart Living
shares at $3.50 per share,
and getting representation
on the companys board.
The companies did not dis-
close howmany board seats
were involved. Martha
Stewart is expected to re-
ceive more than $200 mil-
lion from the 10-year deal.
We intend for Martha
Stewart stores to be a key
centerpiece of our new
strategy to transform J.C.
Penney into Americas fa-
vorite store, Johnson said
in a statement.
As part of the deal, the
companies will create Mar-
tha Stewart retail stores
within most J.C. Penney lo-
cations starting in February
2013. Martha Stewart also
has exclusive arrangements
with other companies, in-
cluding Penney rival Macys
Inc. and Home Depot. Ma-
cys said on Wednesday it
was reviewing the partner-
ship in light of the prolifer-
ation of Martha Stewart-
branded product in the mar-
ketplace, according to an e-
mailed statement from Ma-
cys spokesman JimSluzew-
ski. Nodecisions have been
made at this time, he said.

SCRANTON Lackawanna County
Judge Chester Harhut signed a decree
Wednesday afternoon approving the
proposed $152 million sale of the Mos-
es Taylor Healthcare System to Fran-
klin, Tenn.-based Community Health
Systems Inc.
The system, which includes Moses
Taylor Hospital inScranton, Mid-Valley
Hospital in Peckville, and the Dun-
more-based Physicians Health Alli-
ance, would be the second Lackawanna
County health care system purchased
by CHS this year. The former Mercy
Hospital and affiliated facilities were
bought for $150 million in the spring.
KarenMurphy, president andCEOof
the Moses Taylor Healthcare System,
said the purchase price would settle
outstanding liabilities of upto$127 mil-
lion and continue to fund a foundation
focused on the systems mission. When
the deal was announced in July, CHS al-
so agreedto invest $60 millionover five
years in facility and technology up-
grades.
Martin Smith, division president for
CHS, said the for-profit group has com-
mitted to maintaining essential servic-
es for a minimum of five years. CHS al-
so will continue existing relationships
with The Commonwealth Medical Col-
lege.
Senior Deputy Attorney General Mi-
chael T. Foerster, who heard testimony
via a conference call on Wednesday,
said the Attorney Generals Office has
noobjectiontothe transactionbetween
Moses Taylor and CHS.
CHS also owns Wyoming Valley
Health Care System, Tyler Hospital in
Tunkhannock and the former Mercy

Our fresh coat-
ing of snow this
morning is oddly
our first measur-
able snowfall
since Oct. 29. So,
I guess Old Man
Winter has final-
ly had his way,
but at least we
go through the
storm with hav-
ing mostly rain.
Had it been all
snow, the totals
would be rang-
ing from 10 to 15
inches, since
many places had
between 1 and 2
inches of rain.
Dry weather will
now continue
through tonight
and tomorrow.
Snow showers
will arrive by
Saturday along
the leading edge
of slightly colder
air that will drop
temperatures
down into the
teens Sunday
morning.
- TomClark
NATIONAL FORECAST: Dry weather will be found across most of the nation. There will be some rain
and snow early in the day over northern New England as low pressure moves away to the northeast.
A few snow showers will fall over the Great Lakes, with a band of snow across the central Plains as
well.

Wyoming Seminary Lower
School students Isabel Hou,
fourth grade, and Gokulan Gna-
nendran and Elijah Miller, eighth
grade, were recently honored as
three of the brightest young stu-
dents in the nation at a statewide
awards ceremony for gifted chil-
dren sponsored by The Johns
Hopkins University Center for
Talented Youth (CTY).The center
honored the students, participa-
nts in the 2011 CTY Talent Search,
for their exceptional performance
on a rigorous, above-grade-level
test given to academically talent-
ed second- through eighth-grade
students. Hou and Gnanendran,
both of Clarks Summit, and Miller,
Dallas, were among 50,000 stu-
dents worldwide who participated
in this years CTY Talent Search.
Only 25 to 30 percent of students
who participated earned an in-
vitation to a CTY awards ceremo-

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: After a
bitter seven-year es-
trangement from his
family, my husband
received his grandfa-
thers eulogy in the
mail. His father sent
it with a note that
read, Heres a copy of the eulogy I
read at his funeral. Abby, this was
how his family notified him of his
grandfathers death two weeks af-
ter the fact.
A month later, my husband died at
the age of 36 depressed and suf-
fering from black lung disease. His
family blames ME for his depression.
Not a single relative of my husbands
attended his memorial service despite
being given three weeks notice and
my having mailed them invitations.
My husband left a declaration in
his will that his family should never
know our child, whom they aban-
doned at 2 months old via a letter to
us and my family. I feel I have been
choking on their toxic behavior and
venom. Do you have any advice as we
move forward with our crosses after
being abused by these narcissists for
more than seven years?
Sad And Bitter Widow in
Tennessee
Dear Sad And Bitter Widow: Yes.
Put down those crosses and recognize
that the anger and bitterness you feel
will only poison yourself and your
child. Obey your husbands wishes
and raise your child in a healthy
emotional environment as far from
your husbands family as possible.
Unless you do, the mistreatment to
which you have been subjected will
affect both your lives and you will
waste what could be a happy future.
Dear Abby: I know some children
who seem to be mature and are able
to make logical decisions on a fairly
regular basis. Still, making a decision
under stress when one has not had a
lot of experience can be difficult.
Having said that, at what age do
you think it is appropriate to leave
a child alone at home? Sometimes
its difficult to arrange for child care
when kids are out of school. Do you
have any guidelines as to what to
look for that can help make this
decision?
Busy Working Parent in Kansas
Dear Busy Working Parent: I dont
think children should be left alone if
there is any other alternative avail-
able after-school programs, YMCA,
activities where they will have adult
supervision. Too many things can go
wrong, and you would never forgive
yourself if one of them happened to
your child.
Dear Abby: How does one respond
to a former co-worker/acquaintance
who wants you to be a reference at
your current workplace? My experi-
ence with him was not ideal. He
was a good worker, but he became
irritable when he was under stress
and drowned everyone around him in
negative energy. I dont want to work
with this individual again, but I prefer
to be nonconfrontational.
Former Colleague in Sunnyvale,
Calif.
Dear Former Colleague: If you are
asked again, tell your former co-work-
er you are not comfortable assuming
that responsibility. Dont allow the
person to pressure you.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Not even a death in the family can heal a seven-year-old family feud
To receive a collection of Abbys most
memorable and most frequently re-
quested poems and essays, send a busi-
ness-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus
check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in
Canada) to: Dear Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box
447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage
is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). A surge
of emotional energy may incite
you to demonstrate your love or
other strong feelings. Youll com-
municate clearly, and it will be
nice to finally be heard.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Youll
tune your perception to a world
that supports your wishes and
gives you happy surprises. Youll
see the many ways that people
will help you.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your
mood upon waking might not
be ideal. Sometimes your joy
is the source of your smile, but
sometimes your smile can be the
source of your joy. Thich Nhat
Hanh
CANCER (June 22-July 22). When
you begin choosing in favor of
what would really make you
happy, instead of doing the auto-
matic role that someone has
cast you in, your life will trans-
form in unpredictable ways.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You wont
take your relationships for
granted. There are still many
new things to learn about a per-
son youve known a long time.
Todays insight will be a kind of
revelation.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Social
happenings are more interesting
than usual. Youll enjoy a certain
persons company in particular,
and that person will be sure to
invite you to other events in the
near future.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). When
you argue with the way things
are, you lose. Knowing this, youll
assess a less than optimum
situation and will try to see the
opportunities for good that exist
in it.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There
are things youve always wanted
to do but never acted on. There
will be a perfect moment to
make your move. Its yours for
the seizing, but dont hesitate.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Taking things too seriously is
dangerous. With a great deal of
levity, you just may float above
this whole strange situation and
escape to a bright new scene.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
You regularly take reasonable,
responsible risks. Once in a
while, youre tempted to take an
unreasonable risk just because
something in your gut says it will
work.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You
dont like anyone telling you
what to do, especially yourself.
Thats why you sometimes make
a schedule and do whatever you
feel like doing instead. Let your-
self have the freedom, no guilt
necessary.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Youre
feeling mighty independent, and
you wont measure your self-
worth against how much another
person demonstrates their love
