Luzerne County Manager
Robert Lawton wants to cancel a
$2 million county allocation for
the Market Street train station
renovation and urges the county
redevelopment authority to sell
the historic downtown Wilkes-
Barre property.
Lawton delivered the message
during Tuesdays authority
meeting in West Pittston, saying
the $2 million would come from
a community development loan
fund primarily intended to cre-
ate jobs.
The renovation would create
space to relocate several county
offices but not increase jobs, he
said. Lawton said he would have
a difficult time recommending
loan fund spending on a project
that wont create jobs.
Lawton also said the alloca-
tionwouldreducetheloanfunds
cash balance to about $9 million,
and hes trying to keep the mon-
ey in reserve for future econom-
ic-development projects.
Selling the property also
might be in the countys best in-
terest because the property
would return to the tax rolls, he
said.

ALBANY, N.Y. A study re-
leased Tuesday by the University
at Buffalos new shale gas insti-
tute concludes that state over-
sight of gas drilling has been ef-
fective at reducing environmen-
tal problems in Pennsylvania and
will prevent major problems in
NewYork if the state allows drill-
ing to begin.
Environmentalists, mean-
while, criticized the study as su-
perficial and overly simplistic.
The university-funded report
examined almost 3,000 viola-
tions from nearly 4,000 gas wells
in Pennsylvania since 2008. It
found that 62 percent of the vio-
lations were administrative and
38 percent were environmental.
The environmental violations
stemmed from 845 events 25
of them classified as major, de-
fined as site restoration failures,
serious contamination of water
supplies, major land spills, blow-
outs, and venting and gas migra-
tion.
The authors found that even as
the overall number of violations
increased as more wells were
drilled, the percentage of envi-
ronmental violations compared
to the number of wells drilled fell
from58.2 percent in 2008 to 30.5
percent in 2010.
The data in this study demon-
strates that theodds of non-major
environmental events, and the
much smaller odds of major envi-
ronmental events, are being re-
duced even further by enhanced
regulation and improved indus-
try practice, lead author Tim-
othy Considine said in a confer-
ence call with reporters.
The report says that in 2008,
170shale gas wells were drilledin
Pennsylvania and there were 99
environmental violations, mean-
ing 58 percent of all wells drilled
incurred some violation. In the
first eight months of 2011, they
say 1,248 wells were drilled and
there were 331 recorded environ-
mental violations, meaning 26.5
percent of wells had violations.
They cite this as evidence of im-
proved operations and regula-
tion.
However, a main argument by
opposition groups is that the cu-
mulative impact of more and
more wells being drilled must be
considered. From that perspec-
tive, the study confirms that as
more wells are drilled, the num-
ber of environmental incidents
increases in fact, the overall
number tripled from 2008 to
2011, even though the number
per well went down.
Hundreds of violations per
year are not acceptable when it
comes to protecting clean air and
clean water for people who are
forcedtolive withheavy industri-
al operations in their backyards,
said Kate Sinding of the Natural
Resources Defense Council.

A Harrisburg think tank has released a re-
port that argues states with tighter control
over thesaleanddistributionof alcohol have
lower rates of alcohol-related traffic deaths
than states that take a more hands off ap-
proach.
The study was undertaken to try to ad-
dress what impact the privatization of Penn-
sylvanias retail and wholesale alcohol oper-
ations would have on the number of alcohol-
related traffic fatalities.
The conclusion is that eliminating the
Pennsylvania Liquor Control Boards mo-
nopoly of liquor sales would mean nearly
five dozen additional deaths each year.
Following a comprehensive review of
state-level data, we find that states with
tighter control over the sale anddistribution
of alcohol have lower rates of alcohol-related
traffic deaths than states that take a more
hands off approach, the study states. A
state with characteristics like Pennsylvania,
which maintains monopoly control over the
sale of at least two types of alcohol at the re-
tail level and at least one type of alcohol at
the wholesale level, has 58 fewer adult
deaths per year from alcohol

When Lou Barletta, Tom Marino
and85 fellowRepublicans were elect-
ed to the U.S. House of Representa-
tives in 2010 as part of a nationwide
anti-incumbency movement, the tea
party took credit for spearheading
the uprising and believed the new
class of legislators would head to
Washington and reel in spending and
adhere to tea party principles.
More than a year later, the conser-
vative organizationClub For Growth,
a politically conservative organiza-
tion that promotes a high-growth
economy through economic freedom
and limited government, delved into
the freshmen class voting record on
economic issues to see if members
have acted to change Washington.
Tom Marino and Lou Barletta
went to Washington promising to cut
spending and limit government, but
theyve repeatedly voted to keep
spendinglike the big-government Re-
publicans of old, said Club for
Growth spokesman Barney Keller.
Both congressmen received failing
grades.
The study was compiled from the
Club for Growths Congressional
Scorecard, which evaluates lawmak-
ers based upon their commitment to
limited government and pro-growth
policies.
What we found was that while
some freshmen have lived up to the
promises they made to the tea party
movement, dozens of them are big-

HARRISBURG A decades-
old program that provides about
$200 a month for tens of thou-
sands of disabled adults who
cant work is on the chopping
block even as improving tax col-
lections give state lawmakers
the freedom to reverse some of
Gov. Tom Corbetts proposed
cuts in spending for things like
universities, the race horse in-
dustry and the Legislature itself.
Corbett, a Republican who ran
on a no-new-taxes pledge, advo-
cated doing
away with
the $150
million
General As-
sistance
cash bene-
fit in a $27.1
billion bud-
get plan he
released in
February. It
called for a
series of
cutbacks he blamed largely on
the rising cost of pensions and
health care for the poor.
Then senators voted 39-8 last
weekfor analternative, $27.7bil-
lion budget that also would elim-
inate the cash benefit while add-
ing hundreds of millions of dol-
lars to the subsidies that Corbett
proposed for universities, public
schools, county-run social ser-
vices, the race horse industry,
medical research, retailers that
collect sales taxes and hospitals
and nursing homes that care for
the poor. Senators also plugged
in $12 million to erase cuts in the
Legislatures accounts that Cor-
bett proposed.
House Majority Leader Mike
Turzai, R-Allegheny, suggested
that the House which like the
Senate is controlled by Republi-
cans was unlikely to change
the elimination of the General
Assistance cash benefit when it
considers the Senates plan.
I think that our colleagues
have made an important policy
statement and many of us feel
that ... theyre headed in the
right direction, Turzai said.
Theres aspects to the program
that are too discretionary and
they need (to be) reformed at a
minimum.
Asked why the state couldnt
keep the program while improv-
ing it, Turzai responded: I think
theres just been a history of
abuse thats been shown there,
and it needs further reform and
further reduction.
Turzai cited audits by the
states independent fiscal watch-
dog, Auditor General Jack Wagn-
er, a Democrat. But Wagner re-
sponded that he never audited
the General Assistance cash ben-
efit program and that his audits
of Department of Public Welfare
programs never recommended
eliminating benefits.
Inall our audits, we never had
a recommendation to cut a per-
son off, Wagner said.
The cash benefit program be-
gan in 1939, and was narrowed
substantially in the 1990s to in-
clude just the disabled.
The Corbett administration
argues that it has little choice but
to eliminate the cash benefit if it
is going to rein in the growth of
welfare costs. Senate Appropri-
ations Committee Chairman
Jake Corman, R-Centre, saidsen-
ators had other priorities when
they were deciding which of Cor-
betts proposed cuts to soften.
Democrats tried in a floor
amendment to restore it, but it
was rejected, 29-18 with two
Democrats and every Republi-
can opposing it.

Afederal district judgesittingin
Harrisburg has thrown out dec-
ades-old state regulations govern-
ing Pennsylvania funeral homes,
saying they held down competi-
tion while substantially boosting
costs.
JudgeJohnE. JonesIII, rulingin
a 4-year-old lawsuit that a York-ar-
ea funeral director and others
brought against individual mem-
bers of the Pennsylvania State
Board of Funeral Directors, essen-
tially endorsed the plaintiffs alle-
gations that regulators walled the
funeral business off fromcompeti-
tionbyrestrictingtheentryof out-
of-state operators, imposed rules
that made it difficult for funeral
homes to operate efficiently, and
even went so far as to improperly
impose restrictions on funeral
home names.
The time for relying on anti-
quated and ever-changing inter-
pretationsof (thelaw), whichcon-
stitute nothing more than thinly
veiled attempts to maintain the
status quo for established funeral
directors and their families, or to
confuse those honestly seeking to
comply with the law, has passed,
Jones saidinhis opinion.
The decision was criticized by
the Pennsylvania Funeral Directors
Association, which said Jones had
gutted laws governing funeral
homes. It urged the funeral direc-
tors boardto appeal the decisionto
the U.S. Court of Appeals for the
ThirdCircuit inPhiladelphia.
The best word to sum it up is
surprise, said Kathleen Ryan,
general counsel of the Pennsylva-
nia Funeral Directors Association.
Jonesthrewoutregulationsthat
he saidstifledcompetition, but he
gavethefuneral directorsboard90
days to draw up new regulations
that respondto his ruling.
York-based funeral home oper-
ator Ernest Heffner and other fu-
neral home operators filedsuit, al-
leging that the funeral directors
board had violated the U.S. and
state constitutions witha series of
anticompetitiveregulations. They
accused the trade association of
advocating policies aimed at pro-
tecting their businesses, and
charged that they had developed
an incestuous relationship with
regulators.
The plaintiffs contendedefforts

tions also violated their constitu-
tional rights, andJonesagreedina

findingthat therewas littlereason
tobelievetheyhadabeneficial im-
pact onfuneral homes.
Jones also sided with the plain-
tiffs in finding that regulations re-
stricting out-of-state operators

nia, except in rare cases where
theyareabletopurchasealicense,
breachedthe lawanddiscriminat-

YATESVILLE -- The Pitt-

Tuesday night reviewed the
preliminary final budget for
the 2012-2013 school year and
is to spend the next six weeks
filling in what ends up being
an almost $1.3 million deficit
before the final budget is due

The board members also

the $42 million in expendi-

DALLAS TWP. -- Represen-
tatives from the state Depart-
ment of Environmental Pro-
tection and Chief Gathering/
PVR Partners fielded ques-
tions from residents and the
Board of Supervisors on Tues-
day regarding a series of re-
cent pipeline drilling mud in-
cidents.
The drilling caused water
containing bentonite clay to
erupt through the ground.
DEP and Chief maintain the
incidents did not cause any
harm to environment and the
mud was contained and re-
moved by a vacuum truck.
The locations of the inci-
dents, which occurred May 1
and May 2, are in the wetlands
area off of Kunkle-Alderson
and Upper Demunds roads.
The leaks, referred to as in-
advertent returns are not un-
common, and can happen
when the pressure from the
drill pushes mud through up
from fractures in the earths
upper crust, said Marc B.
Cooley, DEP environmental
group manager for the Scran-
ton District Office.
He added that Chief is ad-
dressing the incidents ade-
quately.
Shouldnt the municipal-
ity have been alerted? Super-
visor Liz Martin asked Coo-
ley, pointing out a resident
told her of the incidents two
days after the fact.
Cooley said the responsibil-
ity of reporting incidents falls
on the shoulders of the oper-
ator, but he would see what he
can do about notifying the
township directly in the fu-
ture.
Borough Engineer Tom
Doughton said he is familiar
with bentonite and that it is
commonly used to seal the
bottoms of landfills, reser-
voirs and along house founda-
tions.
Anyone who has had a
home well drilled in the last
20 years, you probably had it
sealed with bentonite, he
said. I dont want people to
leave here tonight thinking
theyre going to die from bento-
nite in their water. Thats not
the case.
Martin said she is concerned
about the risk to several arte-
sian wells in the area and asked
Chief if they would pay for the
testing of the water. I dont
want to see high concentrations
of bentonite destroy our wet-
lands.
Doughton agreed that resi-
dents should have their water
tested, but said it can be very
costly.
A Chief official said hed look
into the request.
DEP, Chief discuss drill mud incidents at Dallas Twp.
No harm done, mud removed,

MIAMI O.J. Simpson is alive, well and a
model inmate.
That was the response from the Nevada
Department of Corrections after the Nation-
al Enquirer reported on its website that the
former football star turned inmate had suf-
fered stroke-like symptoms while in pris-
on.
Hes fine, corrections spokesman Steve
Suwe saidTuesday. There is notruthtothat
article.
In fact, Suwe said, hes a
model inmate. Simpson
has had no recent medical
incidents andworks ajobin
the gym, where typical du-
ties include sweeping
floors, mopping and pick-
ing up equipment.
Hes a model inmate. He has a job. He
goes to work. He does his job andstays out of
trouble, Suwe said, like we hope everyone
does while in here.
Simpsons prison sentence began in De-
cember 2008. It followed a conviction for his
part leading a group of armed men into a
memorabilia dealers guest room at the Pal-
ace Station Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas on
Sept. 13, 2007.
Once inside, prosecutors said, Simpsonor-
dered that no one leave the room while his
men took dozens of items. Simpson said the
items were stolen from him, and he wanted
them back.
Theearliest hecouldbereleasedfrompris-
on, Suwe said, is late 2017.
It was a starkcontrast tothe successful Na-
tional Football League running back who
made people laugh in the Naked Gun mo-
vies and pitched to them in commercials.
Then came the 1994 killing of his ex-wife
and her friend in Los Angeles, charges that
Simpsonwas involvedintheir deaths andthe
infamous white Bronco chase.
Simpson was found not guilty in the case,
although a civil court later ordered him to
pay $33.5 million to the relatives of Nicole
Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman.

Ex-Redeemer coach indicted
A federal grand jury has indicted a
suspended Holy Redeemer High
School football coach accused of pro-
ducing child pornography.
Federal agents arrested Joseph Os-
trowski last week. The U.S. Attorneys
Office presented the case to a grand
jury, which issued a two-count indict-
ment accusing him of inducing a minor
to engage in sexually explicit conduct
with the intent of transmitting the
image and of extorting a person under
the threat of injuring their reputation.
The indictment does not identify the
alleged victims or provide any addition-
al information. Ostrowski, 28, was
taken into custody last week after au-
thorities filed a criminal complaint. He
was scheduled to appear at a prelimina-
ry hearing next week, but the issuance
of the indictment means that hearing
will be canceled. He waived his right to
a bail hearing last week and remains
incarcerated.

The Wyoming Valley Levee fee will
stay the same this year, the county Flood
Protection Authority decided Tuesday.
The fee, imposed on 14,200 properties
inlow-lying, levee-protectedareas, ranges
from$46.85to$93.70for residential prop-
erties and $93.70 to $676.44 for commer-
cial, industrial andtax-exempt properties.
If everyone pays, the fee will generate
$1.29 million, said authority Executive
Director Jim Brozena.
The controversial fee was instituted in
2009 when prior county commissioners
decided to remove levee flood control-re-
lated expenses from the countys
strapped general fund operating budget.
The county council has not acted on re-
quests from some citizens to abolish the
fee and absorb the expense in the general
fund.
The authority voted Tuesday to re-
move about 300 properties from the fee.
Brozenasaidtheseproperties wereonthe
fringes of the 1972 Agnes flood inunda-
tion map used as a basis for fee payment.
The countys computerized mapping
department extensively reviewed the
map and property boundary lines and de-
termined the properties should be ex-
cluded. The property owners will receive
refunds for past payments, he said.
Brozena told the authority the con-
tracted levee fee collector, the Don Wil-
kinson Agency, has agreed to refund lien
costs paid by property owners who did
not receive2010leveefeedelinquencyno-
tices before liens were placed on their
homes.
Liens were filed on about 1,000 proper-
ties for 2010 delinquencies, he said.
In other business, Brozena said new
flood maps should take effect in six
months. The maps, generatedby the Fed-
eral EmergencyManagement Agency, de-
termine which properties are in high-risk
flood plains. The owners of properties in
these zones must purchase flood insur-
ance if they have outstanding mortgages.
Countyofficialshavebeenpubliclywarn-
ing residents who live along the countys
800 miles of waterways that the boundary
linesof thefloodplainwill changewhenFE-
MAimplements the revised maps.
Municipal officials also were alerted
and provided with copies of the new
maps.
Roughly 10,300 properties will be add-
ed to the flood plain in the county while
roughly 8,800 will be removed, according
to estimates compiled by the county.
Valley Levee fee wont rise this year
If everyone pays, the fee will
generate $1.29 million, says
authority chief Jim Brozena.
KINGSTON The Luzerne
County Transportation Author-
ity will be bringing bus service to
Shickshinny, and Laflin and add-
ing runs to the Walmart in
Wilkes-Barre Township.
Ridershipis up, sowere going
to be adding four trips to Wal-
mart. And our No. 17 run to Avo-
ca, were going to stop at the La-
flin Borough Building four times
a daybecause we got a request for
that, LCTAOperations Director
Robb Henderson said in his re-
port to the authority board at a
regular meeting on Tuesday.
And were going to try three
days a week to Shickshinny
Monday, Wednesday and Friday,
one inthe morningandone inthe
afternoon and see how that
works out, Henderson said.
Henderson said he expects the
additional runs, which begin
June 11, will increase the author-
itys daily revenue miles, which
could boost federal and state
funding.
And its good for the commu-
nity. Shickshinny really doesnt
have anything; theyre just beg-
gingfor abus downthere, sowell
see if they follow through on
what they said, Henderson said.
The run will go from Glen
Lyon, through Mocanaqua and
stop at Shickshinny Apartments
at 9:15 a.m. before heading to the
Intermodal Transit Center in
Wilkes-Barre, Walmart in Wilkes-
Barre Township, the Wyoming
Valley Mall and Mohegan Sun at
PoconoDowns. Anafternoonrun
will reverse the trip.
They seem to be the places
those people down there want to
go, so were going to try it for a
few months and see what hap-
pens, Henderson said.
HendersonalsosaidLCTAwill
stop sending buses to Mountain
Top to pick up Hazleton Public
Transit riders headed to the Mo-
hegan Sun casino and Wyoming
Valley Mall as of June 1.
Executive Director Stanley
Strelish said the authority noti-
fied Hazleton officials that its
probably better for them just to
continue right through instead of
us meeting them. The consolida-
tion talks are still in progress, so
we felt it would be a good idea.
They also can expand, if they
wish, to go into our intermodal,
but were just in initial talks with
Hazleton on that.
Strelishsaidthat if Hazletonof-
ficials have an issue, LCTA will
continue to meet HPT buses in
Mountain Top. But I dont think
therell be an issue, he said.
Strelish also read a letter from
the Salvation Army/Kirby
Health Center Family House
commending employees Jill Wil-
liams and Noreen Kroll, who an-
swer BUS-LINE calls, for their
kind and helpful demeanor and
assistance. He called them the
authoritys unsung heroes.

WILKES-BARRE The city Parking
Authority will learn if $20 million up
front is a reasonable expectation to
lease the citys parking assets.
Desman Associates, a parking con-
sulting firm based in Chicago, was re-
tained by the authority board last
month to evaluate the citys parking fi-
nancials and help prepare the Request
for Qualifications. The RFQ should be
ready to be sent out to prospective bid-
ders to gauge what interest there is in
leasing the citys 2,113 garage spaces,
160 surface lot spaces and 800 parking
meters.
Whatever that number is -- $20 mil-
lion or less or more the RFQshould be
issued, said Murray Ufberg, parking
authority solicitor. A lot of work went
into it. Once we know what the level of
interest is in leasing, we will be able to
determine if we should move forward.
TomTorbik, the authoritys executive
director, said he met with representa-
tives of Desman Associates on Monday
when they came to town to assess the
parking garages, lots and meters. He
said he expects to talk with Desman
again today to get their input for the
RFQ specifically the upfront payment
they recommend.
The RFQ will give us a number to
shoot for, he said.
Torbik said upfront payments will be
asked for a 30-year lease and for a 50-
year lease.

WILKES-BARRE After
nearly a year of construction,
the Wilkes-Barre Family YM-
CAis celebrating with an open
house and thank-you gifts to
the public today.
Following a ribbon cutting
today at 10 a.m., the Y will of-
fer free fitness classes all day
and the doors will be open to
the public at no cost until 4
p.m.
Also, tours, raffles and re-
freshments will be offered.
Today is also the final day to
take advantage of the Foun-
ders Day Special: waiver of
the enrollment fee and the
first month of an annual mem-
bership for $18.63 a savings
of more than $120.
The Wilkes-Barre YMCA
was founded on May 8, 1863,
and has come a long way since
then.
The most recent develop-
ment is a new$5 million Well-
ness Center, which is part of a
$16 million renovation project
that includes theconversionof
three floors of space into 21
residential apartments for col-
lege students, and major reno-
vations to the Ys Camp
Kresge near White Haven.
The bulk of the work is
done. Just some minor cos-
metic tasks remain, said Mar-
keting/Communications Di-
rector Meghan Davis. Its
wonderful how excited every-
one at the Y is about the com-
pletion. Its been a long time
coming. Wecanseethelight at
the end of the tunnel.
Davis said a new Cybex
Room with 18 new pieces of
Cybex circuit training equip-
ment and a new Spinning
Roomwith about 20 newspin-
ning bikes are the showpieces
of the new Wellness Center,
which is located off the balco-
ny.
AnewTeen Center and new
locker room facilities are also
part of the project, she said.
The apartments are a mix of
one-bedroom, two-bedroom
and four-bedroom units, and
beds are leased individually to
students. So far, 20 of the 59
beds have been leased, Davis
said.
Were very excited to show
off the features of our new
building, Davis said.
Anyone who cant make to-
days open house because of a
school or work conflict can
call Davis at the Y to set up
their own personal open
house experience at a more
convenient time.
Davis noted that the Y is al-
so offering a three-month
summer membership special.

HAZLETON Ezequiel Marti-
nez sat quietly in school and
washed the dog, splashing water
on the brown pooch, soaping it
up and rinsing it off. Neither
teacher nor kindergarten class-
mates minded the mess, though;
pup, water and soap were all on a
LeapPad Explorer, a pint-sized
pad computer full of educational
programs purchased through pri-
vate contributions.
Ezequiel, by the way, has a real
dog at home but doesnt washthe
pet because he gets wet.
Heights Terrace Elementary
kindergarten students have ac-
cess to the LeapPads thanks to
the nonprofit website Donor-
sChoose.org. Public school
teachers go online and describe a
project, and donors can chose
which project to support.
There are eight or nine pro-
jects in the district, said former
Hazleton Area School District
teacher and principal Al Papada.
While DonorsChoose has been
around since 2000, it has gained
local popularity in the last three
years, he added.
One reason for that is Papadas
penchant for touting the website
whenever he can while doing his
current work as an agent for Ho-
race Mann, an insurance compa-
ny that focuses on educators. Pa-
pada said he has been surprised
at howquickly donations add up;
on more than one occasion, he
has contributed $100 to a project
andseenfour or five other people
match the donation.
HoraceMannalsosupports the
site, tothe tune of $1.3millionna-
tionally so far, Papada added.
Teacher Anne Franzosa said
the process was quick and easy,
and she is looking to expand the
use of the LeapPads by getting
more math apps.
The offerings that came with
the pads are oriented toward
reading and writing, including
the dog-washing game, a dino-
saur book that the computer pro-
nounces while students look at
the words (complete with dino-
saur roars and other sound ef-
fects), and a letter-tracing app
that lets children learn how to
print letters by pressing a stylus
to screen and connecting dots
contained in a fat version of the
letter.
It doesnt work if you go out-
side the lines, Javier Figueroa
bubbled as Ezequiel traced an
E.
Right now, the new LeapPads
are used primarily as extra study
and reward for students who do
well in regular work, but theres
endless potential, including let-
ting the kids record video
though Franzosa warned there
will be no video of her singing.
You dont want to see me sing-
ing, she laughed.
No problem. The kids seemed
quite happy with the pads dino-
saur roar.

ceived newly mandated vaccina-
tions will be allowed to attend
classes for the remainder of this
school year, Superintendent Jeff
NameysaidTuesday.
But students will be excluded
from school without question if
they dont have the vaccinations
by the beginning of next school
year, Nameyadded.
Wilkes-Barre Area has nearly
300studentswhostill havenot re-
ceived vaccines required by new

tionswereannouncedlast August
and were to be implemented the
start of this month, but that dead-
line was extended for two weeks,
expiring for most districts Mon-
day or Tuesday, depending on
whentheybeganschool.
Namey said the district will
send certified letters to the fam-
ilies where children still were not
vaccinated, but conceded some
parents wont bother picking the
letters up, much less opening
them. The move will document

make sure parents know about
the newmandate.
We have tried everything,
Nameysaid. Materials weresent

thedistrict will trytoset upvacci-
nations within that school,
though Namey noted obstacles
exist, includingashortageof both

ister them.
While the state mandated the
vaccines, it has pushed the deci-
sion on how to handle non-com-
pliance onto school districts. Lo-
cal decisions have been mixed.
Some districts began excluding
students fromschool immediate-
ly after their deadlines, others de-
cided to wait until next fall to en-

SANAA, YEMEN
U.S. aids Yemen in attack
Y
emeni warplanes and troops backed
by heavy artillery waged a four-
front assault Tuesday against the
strongholds of al-Qaida militants in the
south, with U.S. troops for the first
time helping direct the offensive from a
nearby desert air base-turned-com-
mand center.
Yemeni military officials said dozens
of U.S. troops were operating from
al-Annad air base, about 40 miles from
the main battle zones, coordinating
assaults and airstrikes and providing
information to Yemeni forces.
This month it emerged that the CIA
thwarted a plot to down a U.S.-bound
airliner using a new, sophisticated
explosive to be hidden in the bombers
underwear with Yemeni help. But the
planned bomber was actually a double
agent who turned the device over to
the U.S. government.

AG seeks Sandusky info
Pennsylvania prosecutors on Tues-

Sanduskys defense lawyers plan to call
any expert witnesses during his up-
coming child sex-abuse trial in June.
The motion said the attorney gener-
als office wants to be able to review
before trial any reports or other evi-
dence the defense might present from
expert witnesses.
They want to see any results or
reports of physical or mental exam-
inations, or results or reports of any
scientific tests or experiments made in
connection with this case.
Sandusky, 68, a former assistant
football coach at Penn State, is due to

Mom kills 4 kids, self
A Florida mother who fatally shot
her four children before killing herself
Tuesday called three of the kids who
had sought help from a neighbor back
to the house before firing the fatal
shots, authorities said.
Tonya Thomas, 30, fatally shot her
four children, who ranged in age from
12 to 17, said Lt. Tod Goodyear, a
spokesman for the Brevard County
Sheriffs Office.
Three of the children had gone to a
neighbors front door before dawn to
say their mother had shot them. The
mother then called the children back to
the house and killed them, Goodyear
said.
The neighbor then heard gunshots
and called 911.
Another neighbor told deputies that
Thomas sent a text message in the
middle of the night saying she wanted
to be cremated with her children.

WASHINGTON The Obama ad-
ministration declared Alzheimers one of
the countrys biggest health challenges
on Tuesday, adopting a national strategy
that sets the clock ticking toward better
treatments by 2025 along with help
for suffering families today.
What we knowis a lot more needs to
be done and it needs to be done right
now, because people with Alzheimers
disease and their loved ones and caregiv-
ers need help right now, Health and Hu-
man Services Secretary Kathleen Sebeli-
us said in announcing the first National
Alzheimers Plan.
Among the first steps: A new website
www.alzheimers-
.gov that Sebelius
called a one-stop shop
for families who need
easy-to-understand in-
formation about de-
mentia and to learn
where to get help in
their own communi-
ties.
Thissummer, doctorsandotherhealth
providers can start getting some free
training on howto spot the early signs of
Alzheimers and the best ways to care for
those patients.
And scientists are rolling up their
sleeves, National Institutes of Health Di-
rector Dr. Francis Collins told a meeting
of the worlds top Alzheimers scientists
gatheredtodecidethetopprioritiesto
help meet that ambitious goal of better
treatments, perhaps even ways to stall
the disease, by 2025.
We are at an exceptional moment,
with more important new discoveries
about Alzheimers in just the last few
months thaninrecent years, Collins said.
The NIH will spend an extra $50 mil-
lion on Alzheimers research this year,
and among the new studies of possible
therapies is a nasal spray that sends insu-
lin straight to the brain. It might sound
strange, but research has linked diabetes
and Alzheimers, and Collins said pilot
testing suggested the insulin spray im-
proved brain function.
Already, 5.4 million Americans have
Alzheimers or related dementias. Bar-
ringaresearchbreakthrough, thosenum-
berswill jumpby2050, whenupto16mil-
lionAmericans are projectedtohave Alz-
heimers. Its the sixth-leading killer, and
there is no cure. Treatments only tempo-
rarily ease some symptoms.
Beyond the suffering, its a budget-
busting disease for Medicare, Medicaid
and families. Caring for people with de-
mentia will cost the U.S. $200 billionthis
year alone, and $1 trillion by 2050, the
Alzheimers Association estimates.
Eventhat staggeringfigure doesnt ful-
lyreflect thetoll. Suffererslosetheability
to do the simplest activities of daily life
and can survive that way for a decade or
more. Family members provide most of
the care, unpaid, and too often their own
health crumbles under the stress.
My wife goes away a little bit every
day,CharlesZimmermanof Gettysburg,
Pa., said in a video included on the gov-
ernment website to help other families
learnwhat theyll befacing. Todayis the
best shes ever going to be.
The National Alzheimers Plan, re-
quired by Congress, takes a two-pronged
approach: focusing on future treatments
plus help for families suffering today. Be-
yond the initial steps, it lays out a variety
of ways that federal and state govern-
ment plus private and nonprofit organi-
zations need to collaborate to battle Alz-
heimers.

calledfor more policies gearedto-
ward boosting economic growth
as opposedto just cutting govern-
ment spending. During his elec-

Meanwhile, Greece headed in-
to a newmonthof political uncer-
tainty after power-sharing talks
collapsed Tuesday, triggering
new elections that could deter-
mine whether the country retains
its tenuous position in Europes

Nine days of fruitless talks to
build a coalition government led
to increasing doubts that Greece
can make enough reforms to pre-

Hollande said after his first

HARTFORD, Conn. Ateenage driv-
er in Connecticut is under arrest after au-
thorities said the distraction of a hand-
held cellphone caused her to fatally hit a
44-year-old jogger. The victims father
blames his death on stupidity.
The death of Kenneth Dorsey in Nor-
walk and the subsequent criminal charg-
es against the 16-year-old driver come as
other states are considering measures to
force bothteenagers andadults todiscon-
nect fromcellphones andother electronic
devices before getting behind the wheel.
Dorsey, an avid runner, was on a morn-
ing jog and training for a marathon on
March 24 when he was fatally struck by
the SUVthe girl was driving, accordingto
his father, Leo Dorsey.
The NewCanaan girl, whompolice are
not naming because of her age, was
charged Saturday with negligent homi-
cide with a motor vehicle, using a hand-
held telephone under age 18 while driv-
ing and failure to drive in the proper lane.
Police declined to say exactly what she
was doing on the phone, only that they
found evidence she was using the keypad
before Kenneth Dorsey was hit.
Theres noreasontouseaphonewhile
youre driving a car, Leo Dorsey said
Tuesday. There is nothing out there that
important. I totally, totally have to be-
lieve that these phones can be made to
shut off if theyre moving. Impushing for
phones that dont work when theyre
moving.
A defense lawyer has not yet been as-
signed to the juvenile court case, accord-
ing to court records.
The accident is prompting new calls
for people to put down their phones and
other electronic devices while driving,
from police officials to victims relatives
toreaders postingonline responses tothe
Norwalk accident story.
The girl accused of killing Kenneth
Dorsey could face up to six months in jail
on the negligent homicide charge if con-
victed, Norwalk Police Chief Harry Rill-
ing said. The charge of using a cellphone
under age 18 while driving carries a 30-
day license suspension and $175 in li-
cense restoration and court fees for a first
offense, according to the state DMV.
Leo Dorsey said he hopes the girl re-
ceives a severe penalty, but theres some-
thing more important.
I want her not to forget what she did
through stupidity, he said. I just dont
want to see Kenneth forgotten. I hope
that her punishment is that she doesnt
forget. And maybe she passes that on to
her friends and down the road to her own
family.

herself in May 12 after learning there was a warrant out for her arrest on charges of negligent homicide with a motor vehi-
cle. Police say they found evidence the teen was using the keypad on her cellphone before hitting Dorsey.

TEHRAN, Iran At the gallows, the
condemned prisoner Tuesday repeated
the allegations Iran lodged against him:
That he was trainedby Israels spy agency
to carry out one of the first attacks on Ira-
nianscientists ina suspectedshadowwar
against Tehrans nuclear ambitions.
The end of the road has nothing ex-
cept repentance and rope, Majid Ja-
mali Fashi was quoted as saying just mo-
ments before he was hanged for the Janu-
ary 2010 bombing that killed Tehran Uni-
versity physics professor Masoud Ali
Mohammadi.
The execution inside Tehrans Evin
Prison and Irans state-sanctioned cov-
erage of his purported last words are
connectedtoa worldof allegedcovert op-
erations andassassinationplots that have
stretched fromthe Black Sea to Bangkok,
and yet have somehow not disrupted ef-
forts at nuclear talks between Iran and
world powers, which are expected to re-
sume next week in Baghdad.
At least four other members of Irans
scientific community have been killed
since the explosion of a bomb-rigged mo-
torcycle that targeted Mohammadi. Iran
has blamed Israels Mossad spy agency as
well as the CIA and Britains MI-6. Wash-
ington and London have previously de-
nied any roles.
In Jerusalem, Israel Foreign Ministry
spokesman Yigal Palmor said Tuesday
the slayings are not connected to us in
any way.
But Israel and others haves pointed the
finger at Iran for alleged reprisal mis-
sions, including a February bombing in
NewDelhi that wounded an Israeli diplo-
mats wife and the discovery of a cache of
explosives in Bangkok that Thai officials
claim was linked a plot to target Israeli
diplomats. In Azerbaijans capital of Ba-
ku, security officials in March announced
the arrest of 22 suspects allegedly hired
by Iran for terrorist attacks against the
U.S. and Israeli embassies and other
Western-linked sites.
The intrigue, however, has remained
onthe margins as the U.S. andallies try to
press ahead with negotiations over Irans
nuclear program.

RAINY DAY WASHOUT
BILL TARUTIS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER
H
eavy rains Tuesday morning caused this washout of mud and rocks across Oberdorfer Road in Exeter Township. Sun-
shine brightened the region Tuesday afternoon after a dismal morning with heavy rain that flooded several streets
with poor drainage. Main Street near the Pittston Bypass in Jenkins Township, Manor Drive and North Street in Kingston
Township and a section of Cope Road in Huntington Township were closed due to flooding. Nearly 2 inches of rain fell
within a three-hour period, according to the National Weather Service in Binghamton, N.Y. There were no reports of
flooding on creeks and streams in the area. The Susquehanna River in Wilkes-Barre is expected to rise to 13 feet Thurs-
day morning. Natural flood stage is 22 feet and the levee protects most of the valley to around 41 feet.
HARVEYS LAKE Council
approved a sanitary authority
ordinance and scheduled a
public hearing to discuss
changes to the
flood plain ordi-
nance at a meeting
Tuesday.
The countywide
Wyoming Valley
Sanitary Author-
ity ordinance cre-
ates different regu-
lations and fee schedules for
municipalities that contribute
to the sewer system.
Council Vice President Fran-
cis Kopko said the hearing for
the flood plain ordinance,
which is scheduled for June 19
at 7 p.m., is to discuss changes
required for the ordinance to
comply with state mandates.
Council also voted to waive
zoning fees that would be re-
quired for the fire department
to place generators on its prop-
erty.
Secretary Susan Sutton read
a report compiled by Police
Chief Charles Musial with a
special statement regarding
reports of suspicious activity.
Sutton read that Musial re-
ceived a call from a woman
who had seen someone steal-
ing items from a neighbors
backyard, but did not call 911
because she didnt want to
bother anyone.
Sutton read
that Musial asks
everyone to re-
port suspicious
activity if it is
witnessed.
Councilman
Ed Kelly an-
nounced the Harveys Lake

music.
Councilwoman Michelle

tend Lake-Lehman School

The next borough council
meeting is scheduled for
June 19 at 7:30 p.m. in the
municipal building.
WHATS NEXT
Luzerne County Council mem-
bers finalized a policy on board and
authority appointments during
Tuesdays work session.
The policy encourages future
council members to continue the
practice of publicly seeking and in-
terviewing applicants for vacant
board and authority seats.
It also requires boards and author-
ities to submit information for post-
ingonthecountyswebsite, including
meeting times and locations, bylaws,
meeting minutes and budgets.
Council Vice Chairwoman Linda
McClosky Houck, who drafted the
policy, said council members should
interview all applicants because the
appointees are our eyes and our
ears.
Applicants were publicly inter-
viewedTuesday for a vacant seat on
the county transportation authority
and five seats on the Northeastern
Pennsylvania Hospital and Higher
Education Authority.
A special work session was sched-
uledfor Mondayat 5:30p.m. tointer-
viewmore than25applicants for two
vacant seats on the Luzerne County
Community College Board of Trust-
ees that will be filled in June.
Kingston Township resident Tom
Dombroski praised the new process,
saying the public received no infor-
mation about the filling of vacant
seats when past commissioners han-
dled the appointments.
In other business, Councilman
Tim McGinley said Friday is the
application deadline for the coun-
cil clerkpositioncreatedunder the
new home rule government.
As of Tuesday morning, 81 people
had applied for the position, he said.
Council members must estab-
lish a screening process and will
start interviewing the end of the
month, he said. The position will
be filled by July 1.
The Luzerne County Council will
hold a public work session on Mon-
day at 5:30 p.m. in the countys
Emergency Management Agency
building, 187 Water St., Wilkes-
Barre, to interview applicants for
Luzerne County Community College
Board of Trustee seats.
Council will hold a regular meeting
on Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. at the
same location.

HANOVER TWP. State
police are searching for two
vehicles that allegedly caused
a two-vehicle crash on In-
terstate 81 southbound while
street-racing.
State police said the driver
of a silver late-model Chevrolet
Silverado pickup with dark or
tinted windows and a silver
late-model Mazda 3 hatchback
driven by a young white male
were seen driving at approxi-
mately 90 miles per hour,
tailgating and weaving in and
out of traffic at approximately
6:54 p.m. Tuesday.
Stephen Cunningham of
Mountain Top said the pickup
changed lanes abruptly direct-
ly in front of his vehicle, caus-
ing him to lose control as he
swerved to avoid being struck
by the truck, according to state
police.
Cunninghams Honda Ac-
cord bounced off the guard
rail, crossed the three south-
bound lanes and struck a Chev-
rolet Malibu LTZ driven by
William Reese of Hazleton,
state police said.
Reeses vehicle traveled off
the left side of the roadway
and rolled onto its roof and
Cunninghams vehicle spun
and came to rest in the left
lane of travel, state police said.
The pickup and the Mazda
both fled the area, state police
said.
Anyone with information
about the crash is asked to
contact Trooper Kevin Seidel
at the state police Wyoming
barracks, 697-2000.
PLAINS TWP. Lammone
Phrakousonh of Johnson City,
N.Y., reported to police that
someone smashed the pas-
senger-side front window of
her Ford Windstar van and
removed a CD player and a
Sony laptop computer some-
time between 8 p.m. Monday
and 4:15 a.m. Tuesday while it
was parked in Lot A of the
Mohegan Sun at Pocono
Downs parking lot.
Randy Fisher of May-
brook, N.Y., reported at 1:31
a.m. Tuesday that someone
gained entry to his brothers
Honda Civic and removed
stereo equipment and a GPS
device while the vehicle was
parked in Lot A of the Mohe-
gan Sun at Pocono Downs
parking lot.
POLICE BLOTTER
sider every possible contingency to put
us through the next year.
During the budget presentation,
board members piped up with ways to
cut costs and had some conflicting com-
ments about what was worth cutting
out.
For example, the board is considering
removing the smart board coach posi-
tion next year.
Board member Robert Linskey asked
if eliminating that position, for which an
employee is responsible for instructing
faculty members on new technology sys-
tems in the classroom, is worth it.
Is it a smart decision to go backward
(technologically) in this district? Lin-
skey asked.
He said the technology coordinator is
already hard-pressed and there are more
than 100 of the interactive projectors in
the district. It would be difficult to pro-
vide adequate instruction for teachers
with only their tech staff, he said.
Board President Anthony Guariglia
said the curriculum budget is down 8
percent due to efficient practices of the
Luzerne Intermediate Unit. He said the
districts total bill to the LIU will be
much lower than last year.
Melone promised to report weekly to
the board members as he looks for ways
to reduce the hefty deficit.
Latona was absent from the meeting,
but in an email message he said his per-
sonal commitments have grown too
great to fulfill the requirements of his
board position. While apologizing for
his premature departure , Latona of-
fered encouragement to the board.
I feel no waters will be too deep for
the Pittston Area School District to nav-
igate through, he said.
Joseph Kelly was elected to fill his
place as vice president.
The board is to advertise the vacant
board position and receive applications
until June 5 at 6 p.m. when its members
plan to meet to elect a new member.

K
evin William Kreidler was born
48 years ago on Leap Year Day,
special right fromthe start. He grew
up in Shavertown, the fifth child of
Tom and Isabel Kreidler. Like so
manybabies intheearly60s, hewas
the oops baby, the one whose ar-
rival was not exactly in the plans,
but who became a much beloved
and cherished addition to our fam-
ily.
He was educated in the Dallas
School District and after a brief ca-
reer in the financial planning field;
he pursued his passion for the culi-
nary arts.
Working his way through a varie-
ty of kitchens, he ultimately became
head chef and owner of Chloe &
Bernards Restaurant in St. Joseph,
Mo.
Three years ago, Kevin, Wendy
and Mikaela relocated from St. Jo-
seph, Mo., to begin a newchapter of
their lives in Port St. Lucie, Fla. It
has been a joy for Kevins parents to
spend this time with them.
Kevins compassion and ability to
always see the good in everyone
shaped his life. His favorite saying
was, No kidding, and he used it to
share happiness, excitement, antici-
pation and surprise; but also to
gently listen to and share disap-
pointment, sadness and even anger.
Kevin is survived by his parents,
Thomas and Isabel Kreidler, Port
St. Lucie, Fla.; his in-laws, Charles
and Carol Phipps, St. Joseph, Mo.;
his wife of 18 years, who is truly the
love of his life and soul mate, Wen-
dy; sons, Alex Kreidler, Rome, Italy;
Gary Yates, Port St. Lucie, Fla.;
daughters, Kayleigh Lutz and hus-
bandJohn, St. Joseph, Mo., whowill
welcome Kevins first grandson
shortly; Mikaela Kreidler, Port St.
Lucie, Fla.; brother, Tom Kreidler
III, Port St. Lucie, Fla.; sisters,
Kathy and husband Mike Barlow,
Dallas; Betsy and husband Sam
Barker, Indiana, Pa.; and Carol and
husbandMarkOliver, StateCollege.
Kevins life was cut way too short
after a courageous and brutal battle
with colon cancer.
Intryingtofindthe positive thing
going forward that can come out of
his death, I want to shout from the
rooftops SCHEDULE YOUR CO-
LONOSCOPY! He was younger
than the standard recommendation
for the procedure at 50, but he ig-
nored signs. This is truly a painless
medical procedure that will save
your life. If one person puts down
the paper and calls their doctor, it
will help as we mourn Kevins death
and strive to celebrate his life.

Hours: Mon. & Sat. 10-5:30pm
Tues.-Thurs. 10am-8:30pm Sun. 12-4pm
These are all non-binding
numbers, he said. By getting
the RFQs out, we will see what
the real numbers are.
Torbik said that if Desman rec-
ommends a lower upfront pay-
ment than $20 million, the au-
thority would be able to talk to
prospective bidders to see what
it would take to get a higher up-
front payment.
Alan Wohlstetter, the attorney
fromFox Rothschild who was re-
tained by the authority as special
counsel, said the RFQs will be
advertised in parking publica-
tions and others will be contact-
eddirectly because some have al-
ready expressed interest in the
project.
Bob Kadluboski, a private tow-
ing contractor, asked the board
about a meeting held Tuesday
morning between authority
members and Mayor Tom
Leighton. Ufberg assured Kadlu-
boski that the Sunshine Law al-
lows for such meetings to dis-
cuss matters like leasing and/or
litigation. Board Member Ed Ka-
tarsky said the meeting with
Leighton was just to assure
were all on the same page.
When asked to explain that,
Katarsky said there was some
discussion about who will make
the final decision on the parking
issue the authority, the mayor
or City Council.
We wantedtoknowwhat hap-
pens if we say no to this, Katar-
sky said. Can council say yes
and override us?
Ufberg said the authority has
control over what it owns the
parking garages and surface lots
and city controls the Intermo-
dal Center off South Washington
Street and the parking meters.
Our goal is to do whats best
for the city, said Board Member
Robert Jabers.
Kadluboski, citing a report in
Tuesdays Times Leader, advised
the authority to be aware of what
happened in Chicago, where the
parking management company
billed the city for $14 million to
recoup revenue lost when park-
ing meters were out of service
due tospecial events and/or con-
struction.
People are outraged, said
Kadluboski, who also noted that
the former mayor of Chicago and
several staff members ended up
working for the law firm that
helped engineer the citys park-
ing deal.
Mark Robbins, a resident of
Forty Fort who has been a critic
of city government, cautioned
the authority about the lease
deal. Robbins said the $20 mil-
lion figure is way overpriced.
If youre right, thenwe will re-
ceive no responses to the RFQ,
Wohlstetter said.
Torbik said specifics about a
lease agreement will come up
only if the authority decides to
proceed to Phase 2 to seek bid
proposals. He said issues such as
down time for parking meters
and contracts with entities like
the downtown movie theater
would be negotiated if they are
not transferable.
Regarding the $20 million fig-
ure, Torbik and Ufberg noted
that whatever the upfront pay-
ment is, $8 million would come
off the top to retire remaining in-
debtedness on the Intermodal
and other city garages. The con-
sulting fees paid to Wohlstetters
firm, Desman and J.J. Murphys
Goals Consulting would also be
reimbursed.
Mary Ann King, board mem-
ber, requested the meetings be
changed to the evening, so she
can attend without having to
take time off of work and for the
public to be able to attend.
The board agreed to honor her
request.

Murray Ufberg, parking authority solicitor, and Alan Wohlstetter,
special counsel from Fox Rothschild in Philadelphia, speak at
Tuesdays Parking Authority meeting.
WILKES-BARRE At Tues-
days Parking Authority meet-
ing, the board was asked who
determined that $20 million
was a reasonable expectation
for an upfront payment from
bidders interestedinleasingthe
citys parking assets.
AccordingtoDrewMcLaugh-
lin, the citys administrative co-
ordinator, the figure was recom-
mended by the consultants
hiredbythe ParkingAuthority--
specifically, Fox Rothschild, the
Philadelphia law firm, and
Goals Consulting, the company
owned by former city adminis-
trator J.J. Murphy, whose broth-
er, Patrick, is a partner in Fox
Rothschild.
According to authority re-
cords, consultants have been
paid approximately $122,000 to
get through Phase 1 prepara-
tion of Request for Qualifica-
tions. Todate, Goals Consulting
has submitted time sheets total-
ing $34,460 plus another
$316.78 in expenses for parking
and tolls.
The parking authority and
the city will learntoday if anoth-
er hired consultant Desman
Associates of Chicago agrees
with the $20 million upfront
number, or if the expectation
should be higher or lower.
The $20 million minimum
bid was based on a preliminary
analysis and discussion of the
value and performance poten-
tial of the assets over the life of
the lease, which was a part of
the preliminary research and
meetings with the consultants
hired for this project, who also
had discussions with experts in
this field about an initial esti-
mate on their marketability,
McLaughlin said.
Parking authority Executive
Director Tom Torbik said Tues-
day that Desman Associates
will provide its report today on
what number should be in the
Request for Qualifications. The
RFQs are expected to be sent
out next week and depending
onthe number of interestedbid-
ders and what they are willing
to pay up front, the authority
and the city will then decide
whether to proceed to Phase 2
and seek bid proposals to lease
the citys parking garages, sur-
face lots and meters to a private
company.
The parking authority also
discussed who has the ultimate
authority to decide whether to
lease the parking assets.
Theproposedleaseof all city
parking assets has been and will
remain a joint venture of the
Parking Authority and the city
of Wilkes-Barre, McLaughlin
said. As the process progresses
through the RFQstage and into
evaluation of bidder qualifica-
tions and proposed bids, the
city and the authority will vote
to approve the best deal for tax-
payers if one materializes.
McLaughlin said City Coun-
cil will vote to approve a final
lease agreement when and if
one is reached.
Representatives of the Park-
ing Authority met with Mayor
Tom Leighton and some of his
administrative staff Tuesday
morning before the authority
board meeting at noon.
City officials and Parking
Authority members met to dis-
cuss the status of this ongoing
initiative, McLaughlin said. It
was a productive discussion.

NESCOPECK According to
comments at Monday nights
council meeting, Nescopeck po-
licecontinuetohavecommunica-
tion problems with Luzerne
Countys 911 center despite the
installation of a repeater system
at the tower on Shickshinny
Mountain.
It was stated that an officer, re-
sponding to a situation involving
six people in an area behind a
Third Street bar on Saturday
night, was unable toreachthe 911
center onhis portable radiowhen
he called for assistance.
Instead, it was stated at the
meeting, the call had to be re-
routed to Columbia County 911
for the officer to get help. Previ-
ously, Nescopeck experienced
similar problems, which resulted
in council meeting with Dave
Parsnik of Luzerne County in an
attempt to rectify communica-
tion problems.
Besides this matter, council
has scheduled a special session
for Thursday at 7:30 p.m. to re-
viewwhat has been reported as a
proposed agreement between
council, former police Chief
James Desidoro and the Team-
sters union. Desidoro was firedin
March.
The union subsequently filed a
grievance on his behalf. Council
rejected it at the April meeting.
Council met in executive session
Monday to review details of the
unions proposal.
Council also heard complaints
about continuing incidents at the
public park and recreation area.
Funding from the Federal
Emergency Management Agency
is supposedtobe forthcomingfor
flood damage that occurred in
the fall of 2011. Part of this mon-
ey, in excess of $100,000, is in-
tended for additional surveil-
lance cameras at the park, said
Borough Secretary Stacie Ka-
churka.
FEMA postponed remittance
earlier this year and, on March
26, told Nescopeck it would be
another eight weeks until the
funding is released.
In conjunction with the flood,
council approved a resolution to
have Peters Consultants, the bor-
oughs engineer, advertise for
bids for the constructionof a plat-
form at the sewage treatment
plant, which will place the plants
generator above current flood
plain levels. High water disabled
the generator in September 2011.
Nescopecks emergency call problems persist
Assistance call from officer
recently had to be re-routed
to Columbia County 911.

ly at Wyoming Avenue and Prin-
gle Street on Aug. 26. Lewis was
kept under surveillance for

area and entering a room at the
Budget Inn motel on Wyoming

Police learned Lewis was a
fugitive wanted on a parole

discovery of packaged bags of
cocaine hidden in a body cavity,
according to the criminal com-
plaint.

COURT BRIEFS
The Luzerne County Elec-
tion Board wont challenge
the county managers author-
ity to hire and fire the elec-
tion bureau director, accord-
ing to an announcement from
the board.
The control issue came up
when county Manager Robert
Lawton suspended and later
terminated election bureau
Director Leonard Piazza last
month without input from the
board. Both the board and
Piazza questioned the manag-
ers authority.
In a statement issued Tues-
day, the board said weeks of
research and conversations
with multiple county and
state officials prompted the
board to conclude a challenge
of the managers authority
would be counterproduc-
tive.
While the Board of Elec-
tions maintains that the tim-
ing and manner of the remov-
al of the director of the Bu-
reau of Elections ten days be-
fore the April primary
without any consultation with
this board was ill-advised and
put in jeopardy the proper ad-
ministration of the primary
elections, Manager Lawton
did have that power under the
home rule charter and current
state interpretation of the
election statutes, the state-
ment said.
The statement
also said the
board will sug-
gest an addition
to the countys
proposed admin-
istrative code requiring the
manager to seek meaningful
participation from the board
in the hiring and firing of the
election director.
Board involvement is war-
ranted because it has a major
stake in the proper function-
ing of the bureau, which tab-
ulates election results the
board must certify to the
state, the statement said.
The county council is revis-
ing the code before the June
22 adoption deadline.
Lawton said he appreciates
the boards acknowledgment
of the managers authority un-
der state law and the home
rule charter.
Moving forward toward
the appointment of a perma-
nent director, I anticipate so-
liciting the boards input dur-
ing the review and interview
of candidates, Lawton said.
Lawton said the county des-
ignated an interim director
with prior election experi-
ence Tom Pizano before
the primaries and maintained
close and frequent contact
with state election officials
and the voting machine man-
ufacturer, which sent a repre-
sentative to provide on-site
support.
With these measures, elec-
tion day preparation and oper-
ations proceeded without in-
cident, Lawton said.
He also credited several
county departments, includ-
ing GIS/mapping, informa-
tion technology, security,
buildings and grounds, and
solicitors.
The successful conduct of
this and every election is not
the work of any one person,
but a consortium of county
staff, he said.
Election board wont dispute Piazza firing
Board finds county manager
had power to dismiss election
bureau director.

Baseball pitcher Roger Clemens with steroids when they were with the

Controller gets blamed
in overbilling fiasco
N
ice job, Times Leader, for the investi-
gating that reporter Terrie Morgan-
Besecker did to uncover the $60,000
overbilling in Luzerne County.
Our county controller, Walter Griffith,
alias the county watchdog, really blew
this one. What good is a watchdog that
cant see his hand in front of his face?
Is he a CPA? Has he gone to and gradu-
ated from college or even business school?
This is an elected position; taxpayers and
voters, take notice.
Maybe if Griffith concentrated on his job
responsibilities instead of exposing the
faults of others, he would have found this
overcharge and not paid the bill. Mr.
Watchdog, the buck should have stopped
with you.

Writer says Susquehanna
suffered years of abuse
R
egarding the April 29 column by Tom
Venesky about the Susquehanna River,
a river that has been rated No. 1 of the
most endangered rivers in America: Youre
right, Mr Venesky; but youre only 40 years
behind the times.
Here is a list of those factors that killed
the river and the Chesapeake Bay:
1. Acid in the water.
2. Acid rain.
3. The state Department of Agriculture
and dairy industries clear chopping and
using herbicides; this also wiped out our
pheasant population.
4. The state Department of Transporta-
tions tons of salt it spreads on the roads in
winter.
5. The U.S. Department of the Interior.
6. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
that put in rip-rap and turned our rivers
tributaries into nothing more than high-
speed ditches in the name of flood con-
trol.
A lasting memorial is the section of
Bowmans Creek, known as the Fly Sec-
tion, which was destroyed with backhoes
and bulldozers. The striped bass, oysters
and blue claw crab are about gone from the
Chesapeake, and the bureaucrats sitting in
Harrisburg dont have a clue.

The truth about Obama:
He gets the mission done
I
m here to tell you, Times Leader, that
the editorial cartoon on May 4 regarding
President Obamas trip to Afghanistan
was wrong.
Since when is it wrong to tell the people
the truth about what you accomplished?
Presidents always are campaigning; at
least he got done what he said he would.
When President Bush stood on the aircraft
carriers deck and said mission accom-
plished, was that the truth? No.
To me, and every true American, what
Obama did should be a campaign factor.
The Republicans cant stand the fact that
this president gets things done even with-
out the help of a Republican-controlled
Congress. Of course wed have a lot more if
the Republicans would cooperate.
Even with all the resistance Obama is up
against, he is still bringing this country
back no matter what Fox News tells its
followers. Someone once said, If you tell a
lie enough times, soon it will become the
truth.
When are people going to stop voting
against their best interests? Vote out the
blue dogs and tea partiers and put in real
people.

Reader says letter writer
uninformed about Obama
A
fter letter writer Gary Bitler watched
in amazement as President Obama
paraded around the country cam-
paigning at college campuses promising
freebies to all, I read the transcripts of the
speeches and wondered, in amazement
myself, from what planet Mr. Bitler was
getting his news.
When I saw his statement on Obamas
free health care bill, I thought it might be
another dimensions newscast. The Fox
Dimension, no doubt.
Nowhere in Obamas speeches does he
say anything about free, although we all
hope to get something for free at least
once in a lifetime. Obama talks about the
burden of huge student loans and how hed
like to get the interest rate down. About
how higher education, whether it be a two-
or four-year college or trade school, should
at least be accessible to all. About how to
make it possible for one to graduate and
seek their success without going broke to
the student loan.
Perhaps Mr. Bitler, in his May 8 letter,
referred to the health care bills provision
allowing students to stay covered by their
parents health care insurance, or its cov-
erage of unemployed or underemployed
people. But both of those categories are
not free. Now we all pay higher premiums,
or payments to hospitals, to cover those
people. And they, if by some stroke of luck
happen to find a job, will pay, too. The
Obama health bill is a big disappointment
because it continues to work with private,
profit-driven insurance companies. Medi-
care for all, or at least the public option,
would have been better, and cheaper, but
hardly free.
Mr. Bitler wrote of Obamas Buffett
Rule and proposed tax hikes on the rich. I
guess if you worship rich people, you
might be happy to pay taxes at a higher
rate than they do. If you admire Mitt Rom-
ney, maybe you can be satisfied paying 35
percent, while he pays 20. Maybe you can
swallow your pride and go with New Jer-
sey Gov. Chris Christie who says they
should shut up and write a check.
Or, maybe, you can do a little reading
with open eyes: Read Buffetts words, read
Stephen Kings words. They are, after all,
free.

Patients family thanks
staff at W-B General
W
e thank the staff of Wilkes-Barre
General Hospital for the love, care,
compassion and professionalism
shown to Vic Gorski and his family while
he was a patient there.
Our heartfelt thanks go to Dr. Jack Ellis,
Dr. Michael Harostock and their teams
on that fateful day of Feb. 3. You did a truly
amazing job of saving Vics life. Our thanks
continue to the CICU employees for their
unbelievable care and professionalism,
especially Kim, Terry, Bob, Cindy, Mike,
Priscilla, Ann, Sandy, Missy, Bronwyn and
Steve. It continues with Bev and Gail, and
others whom we do not know by name but
who played a role in Vics recovery.
A thank-you also goes to the team of
doctors who were on Vics case, including
Dr. Young, Dr. Decker, Dr. Marion, Dr.
Garg, Dr. Rizzo and Dr. Chang. We also
thank Judy in patient services and Jim
from the Senior Circle.
It is impossible to name everyone, but
they deserve to be complimented. Our
family had administration, nursing, house-
keeping and kitchen staff stopping us in
the hallways to ask how Vic (husband,
father, son-in-law, grandfather) was doing,
which continued until the day we left the
hospital. Even a month after leaving, when
we returned to the hospital for tests, we
still were asked, Hows Vic?
We also thank our family, friends and
neighbors (Mike and Deb especially), for
their support, love and generosity, and for
the concern we received and continue to
receive.
We cannot truly express how touched,
grateful and blessed we are!

HE GREAT HUE and
cry in the aftermath of
JPMorgan Chase &
Co.s revelation that it
lost at least $2 billion in a risky
trading scheme is for More reg-
ulation! Actually, the better so-
lution is to return to a very com-
monsense past regulation
Glass-Steagall.
The nations largest bank
madewhat it calledsloppyand
stupid errors trading synthet-
ic credits. Ironically, it claims to
have lost the money trying to
shield itself from European tur-
moil. And it rationalizes the loss
as being quite absorbable, given
the banking behemoths size.
But $2 billion is not chicken
feed. And its indicative of a
larger problem recklessness
from a corporation that tax-
payers bailed out with $25 bil-
lion nearly four years ago.
Predictably, the JPMorgan in-
cident has prompted a push for
implementation of the so-called
Volcker Rule, part of thedubious
Dodd-Frank financial reform
law, which would limit a banks
ability to bet on markets with
their customers money. But the
far better solution actually is the
more comprehensive revive
the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933,
which created a necessary wall
between risk-averse commercial
banking and risk-egging invest-
ment banking.
Glass-Steagall served this na-
tion quite well until its provi-
sions began to be watered down
inthe1960s andtheneliminated
in 1999. Tearing down the wall
precipitated The Great Reces-
sion.

URING A teenagers
funeral last month,
the Rev. Michael
Brewster challenged
mourners to consider Wilkes-
Barres safety and what each of
themcould do to make the city
a better place for children.
He spoke about the impor-
tance of parenting.
He preached about extend-
ing radical love to fellowresi-
dents.
The pastor of Mount Zion
Baptist Church also told the
downcast attendees, including
plenty of non-church members
disillusionedbythe violent and
senseless death, that he was
not an activist.
Maybe not. But perhaps
Brewsters brand of encourage-
ment is exactly what this com-
munityneeds todaytorallyand
face its biggest challenges: pov-
erty, crime, an ailing education
system, apathy and, yes, a lin-
gering distrust among racial
groups.
If not Brewster, shouldnt
someone publicly decry the
death of a 14-year-old boy by
gunshot? Or acknowledge that
a communitys future is threat-
ened when melees between
students become common-
place in school halls and ma-
chete violence erupts on the
sidewalk? Or amplify the folly
of aschool systeminwhichcor-
rupt men enrich themselves by
doling out teaching jobs while
certain students never learn to
read with sufficient skill?
Not much will change unless
someone dares to say: No
more. This
must stop. I
cant fix this
alone, but Im
willing to
link arms and
aspirations
with you to
try.
Brewster and others in-
cluding the Rev. Shawn Walker
of the First Baptist Church and
Mayor Tom Leighton recent-
lyannounceda plantobringto-
gether city residents and oth-
ers for an extended conversa-
tion. The project, calledBuild-
ing Bridges, is expected to get
under way next week with the
first of five town hall-style
meetings.
The idea: Stop assigning
blame and instead involve peo-
plefrommanybackgrounds, all
bound by a concern for chil-
drens welfare. Fromthere, who
knows what good things might
follow?
The first Building Bridges
session is set for 7 p.m. May 24
at the Dodson Elementary
School library. Other meeting
dates and project details are
available on the citys website,
at www.wilkes-barre.pa.us.
Brewster might not want to
characterize this startup move-
ment as the work of an activ-
ist. So be it.
All that matters now is that
well-intentionedpeople appear
ready to focus on giving our
youths a better chance to
thrive.
And to that we say a radical,
Amen!

related traffic accidents than
states that have no such con-
trols.
Previous findings
The findings by the Keystone
Research Center, a nonprofit
public policy organization, dif-
fer from a previously released
study conducted by economists
John Pulito and Antony Davies.
The findings by those two found
that states with tighter control
of the sale and distribution of al-
cohol, in some instances, have
higher rates of alcohol-related
fatalities.
In testimony before a state
Senate Law and Justice Com-
mittee in 2011 regarding his re-
search, Davies said, The re-
sults indicate that state con-
trol of alcohol markets does not
contribute to improved social
outcomes and, disturbingly in
the case of DUI fatalities, ap-
pears to contribute to reduced
social outcomes.
In the pairs original publish-
ed policy brief, titled Govern-
ment-Run Liquor Stores: The
Social Impact of Privatization,
they concluded Divestiture of
Pennsylvanias state liquor
stores would represent a finan-
cial windfall to the state, while
posing no threat to public safe-
ty, as it would not result in the
social ills many opponents of
privatization fear.
Deb Beck, president of Drug
and Alcohol Service Providers
of Pennsylvania, said her reac-
tion to the Pulito and Davies re-
port was disbelief.
(I) just could not figure out
how that could be true, Beck
said during a conference call
Tuesday.
The call also included Mark
Price, an economist who co-au-
thored the report titled The
Road Less Traveled: States That
More Tightly Control the Sale
and Distribution of Alcohol
Have Lower Alcohol-Related Fa-
talities, and Stephen Herzen-
berg, an economist and execu-
tive director of the Keystone Re-
search Center.
Not only couldnt Beck be-
lieve it, but neither could Price
and Herzenberg.
Closer look at study
So the Pulito and Davies
study, done in 2009 for the Com-
monwealth Foundation for Pub-
lic Policy Alternatives, was giv-
en a closer look and Keystone
Research Center staffers figured
out why the original study had
the results that were reported.
Jay Ostrich, director of public
affairs for the Commonwealth
Foundation for Public Policy Al-
ternatives, blasted the new re-
port, calling it shameful.
He said the Keystone Re-
search Center is a union-con-
trolled organization bent on pro-
tecting the union-backed gov-
ernment monopoly at all costs.
They added more variables,
Ostrich noted. Theres a reason
theyre stretching it that far. The
truth is not showing the out-
come they want it to.
Price said there were two vari-
ables not included in the Pulito
and Davies paper that make the
results much different. He said
factoring in states per capita in-
come and per capita miles trav-
eled got their results reversed.
Including vehicle miles trav-
eled and per capita income is
important because control
states tend to be ones in which
people drive farther and have
lower incomes. Driving more in-
creases the likelihood of fatal
traffic accidents, while lower in-
comes mean people are less like-
ly to be driving in newer cars
with strong safety features,
Price contended.
The reason the research was
re-examined and a new report
was issued on the same topic by
the Keystone Research Center
came down to the way the Puli-
to and Davies report has been
used to muddy the waters in the
debate over how privatizing
the states liquor system would
impact the state, Herzenberg
said.
Herzenberg said the report
the Keystone Research Center
released makes the water on
this issue pretty clear.
Keystone aims to set the re-
cord straight for policymakers
and others who have cited the
Pulito and Davies research.
What impact will privatiza-
tion have on the safety of our
roads and highways? This is a
critical question for policymak-
ers to answer, and they should
have the facts, said Price.

spenders and are no different
frommany of the veteranRepub-
licans they serve with, accord-
ing to the findings released
Tuesday.
In2011, freshmenRepublicans
received an average score of 71
percent on the scorecard. The
average veteran received a 69
percent. This means the fresh-
men Republicans voted, on aver-
age, about the same as the Re-
publicans who were already in
Congress. Only three of the 87
freshmen Republicans scored a
perfect 100 percent.
Barletta, R-Hazleton, scored
47 percent. Marino, R-Lycoming
Township, scored better at 60
percent, but that was still below
the average rating.
The score card highlighted 37
specific votes and noted wheth-
er the member voted along with
the Club For Growths position
or against it. Barletta voted
against the clubs positions 19
times and was absent from one
other vote. Marinovotedagainst
the position14times andwas ab-
sent for one vote.
Marino and Barletta took is-
sue with the score card as a way
to measure their ideals and their
voting record.
My philosophy is simple; I
work to do what is best for the
nation and the people I repre-
sent while staying true to the
(principles) of theConstitutionI
swore to support and defend,
Marino said. I am proud of my
own record as a conservative be-
cause I am a conservative and I
do not need any organization or
scorecard for validation. I have
also been impressed with the
way my colleagues in the GOP
freshman class have been able to
change the old Washington way
of thinking.
I speak with Pennsylvanians
involvedinTea Partygroups reg-
ularly and I ama member of a lo-
cal Tea Party group myself, Ma-
rinocontinued. TeaPartymem-
bers I know are interested in de-
livering common sense to
Washington and they have little
use for a Washington groups in-
terpretation of the common
sense conservative principles
they live by every day.
Barletta spokesman Shawn
Kelly issued a statement focus-
ing on Barlettas voting record,
rather than the score card or
Club for Growth itself.
Rep. Barletta cut billions in
federal overspending in his first
17 months in office, but he bal-
anced those cuts with votes to
protect his constituents by sup-
porting programs like communi-
ty policing efforts, home heating
assistance for the elderly, drug
intelligence centers, flood insur-
ance and protection, and similar
measures, Kelly said. Rep. Bar-
letta also voted for a balanced
budget amendment, which
wouldmake sure the federal gov-
ernment lives within its means,
cuts wasteful spending, and
cracks down on fraud and
abuse.
Those stances dont hold wa-
ter with the head of the conser-
vative organization.
The Club for Growth holds
members of Congress account-
able for their actions, not their
rhetoric, said Club for Growth
President Chris Chocola in a re-
lease.
The liberal media likes to
pretend that these Republicans
have fought for fiscallyconserva-
tive policies, but the facts dont
support their thesis. Just be-
cause the Republicans have a
majority does not mean that
more pro-growth policies have
been passed. For example, a ma-
jority of Republicans voted to
raise the debt ceiling, against
spending cuts, and for wasteful
subsidies. Republicans rail
against the National Labor Rela-
tions Board, but some voted to
keep funding it, Chocola said.
By distributing this report to
Club members and the public,
we hope to raise awareness
about the records of the Repub-
lican freshmen and believe their
constituents will ask whats hap-
pened since they went to Wash-
ington.

ture and a former administrator
at that states Department of En-
vironmental Protection, said
other factors might account for a
drop in the number of violations.
For example, the current admin-
istration has made significant
changes in how violations are re-
corded and enforcement actions
taken, he said.
New York Water Rangers re-
leased a statement saying the re-
port focuses only on well site vio-
lations and fails to consider prob-
lems related to wastewater treat-
ment and disposal, public health
impacts, degradedair quality and
industrialization of communi-
ties.
Shale gas drilling hasnt been
allowed in New York since the
Department of Environmental
Conservation began a review in
2008 to address impacts from
horizontal drilling and high-vol-
ume hydraulic fracturing, or
fracking, which uses millions of
gallons of chemically treated wa-
ter per well to crack shale and re-
lease gas.
Thefirst studyproducedbythe
newShale Resources and Society
Institute at Buffalo was released
on the same day as a broad coali-
tion of health, environmental,
and political groups were staging
a rally and concert in Albany call-
ing on Gov. Andrew Cuomo to
banfracking. Industry opponents
believe the technology poses an
unacceptable risk to health and
the environment.
All three of the reports leadau-
thors have ties to the energy in-
dustry as well as being academ-
icians, but institute Director
John Martin said the study was
funded entirely by the University
at Buffalo with no industry sup-
port.
Martin is the founder of a con-
sulting group serving the energy
industry, academic institutions
andgovernments andhas worked
on energy research and policy is-
sues for the state. Considine is an
energy economist at the Univer-
sity of Wyoming andhas received
industry funding for previous
studies. The third author, Robert
Watson, is professor emeritus at
Pennsylvania State Universitys
oil and gas engineering program
with 45 years as an engineer for a
natural gas company.
Anti-fracking groups have crit-
icized industry-funded studies by
Considine touting the economic
benefits of shale gas, saying the
studies relied on an exaggerated
number of jobs created and failed
to account for negative economic
impacts.
The new report says most of
the major environmental impacts
were due to operator error, neg-
ligence, or a failure to follow
proper procedures when drill-
ing.
Wenonah Hauter of Food and
Water Watch was worried about
the long term.
Research published last
month, for example, shows that
fracking can enable contami-
nates to migrate thousands of
feet underground, over a long pe-
riod of time, potentially reaching
drinking water aquifers via man-
made and naturally occurring fis-
sures

Market Street and Wilkes-Barre
Boulevard, he said.
The station still could find a
viable use in the private sector,
he told the authority.
About $86,000 of the $2 mil-
lion was spent on structure eval-
uation and renovation design.
Lawton said that expense was
worthwhile to help market the
site to private developers.
Authority Chairman Joe Ma-
zur said board members must
hold more meetings to discuss
the matter before reachinga deci-
sion.
Mazur said the authority un-
successfully tried to market the
property to private developers in
the past. He blamedthe economy
and said some who were interest-
ed want it for nothing.
Authority Board member Al
Cibello said he supported the
plan to relocate the countys Con-
vention and Visitors Bureau and
Charles T. Adams Senior Center
to the station. The public needs
a roadmap to find the tourism
office onPublic Square, andpark-
ing is scarce at the senior centers
current Market Street location,
he said.
The county already invested
$6.1 million six years ago to pur-
chase and develop the 143-year-
old former Central Railroad of
NewJersey station, Lawton said.
Past county commissioners had
voted in October to provide the
additional $2 million.
Theauthoritypaid$5.8million
to buy the property from busi-
nessman Thom Greco. The 6-
acrecomplexalsoincludes a strip
mall. Two county appraisals in
2006 concluded the property was
worth $5.74 million.
Lawton told the authority he
will continue discussions and
didnt expect an immediate deci-
sion on the property. He said he
wanted to discuss his plans in
person as a courtesy.
County Chief Engineer Joe
Gibbons saidhebelieves develop-
ers would be interested.
If you strip away all the junk
and all the cars and you see
whats left, I think you would be
surprised to see how beautiful it
was, he said of the historic por-
tion.
The authoritys original reno-
vationdesignfeaturing aneatery,
banquet areas andpossibleexhib-
it area was scrapped when no ad-
ditional government funding or
private investors surfaced.
The scaled-back version also
would create office space for the
Penn State Extension and re-
move non-historical additions.
Lawtons change in plans came
up at a county Convention and
Visitors Bureau board meeting
Tuesday.
Bureau Executive Director
Merle Mackin said he and his
staff had been looking forward to
moving to the Market Street
complex. Signs on the rede-
signed Coal Street would have di-
rected visitors from Interstate 81
to the complex, making the bu-
reau easier to find, he said.
Mackin said the current loca-
tion will suffice, though the ideal
would be a location directly off
the interstate.
Board members Ted Patton
and Kelly Novakowski disagreed.
Novakowski said Lackawanna
Countys visitors center alongIn-
terstate 81 was almost always
empty when she has been there.
Board member John Maday
said out-of-town business people
often inquire about local attrac-
tions when they visit the Wilkes-
Barre chamber, also located on
Public Square, and they like the
short walk to the tourism office.

County Convention and Visitors
Bureau should make
changesinsomeaccount-
ing and money-handling
practices.
Bureau officials went
overthefindingswiththe

For the most part, I
think some of the high-
lights are segregation of duties,
which we will be addressing,
said Executive Director Merle
Mackin. Really, its going to
come down to the county having
tohelpus dothat.
For example, theauditor could

ble list maintained by the bureau
with records obtained from the
county computer systemand bu-
reaurecords
The recommendation is that
the county creates an accounts re-
ceivable department. If they do,
with two employees one for bill-
ing and one for receipts. This will
assist with the segregation of du-
ties. Thats going to be something
the county will explore, whether
they want to expand their treasur-
ers department toenable that seg-
regationof duties, Mackinsaid.
In examining compliance with
thecountypersonnelpolicy, theau-
dit found that bureau employees

lowances, maximumexpenditures

mentationforreimbursedexpendi-

In response to those findings,
the bureau provided a copy of a
2008 email from Doug Pape, for-
mer chief clerk, and county solic-
itor James Blaumthat statedthat

BoardmemberTedPattonsaid
there is definitely a disconnect

All three singles matches went
to tiebreakers in the first set be-
fore Seminarys George Park-
hurst (7-5), Harry Parkhurst
(8-6) and Henry Cornell (10-8)
all won their tiebreakers to claim
first-set victories. The doubles
team of Evan Botwin and Matt
Cartwright also won its first set
as the Lions were put in a hole.
Im just glad it shows the
mental toughness that our team
has that all three of us pulled out
those really close tiebreakers,
Harry Parkhurst noted. I think
it gives us a ton of confidence go-
ing to Hershey for the second
straight year.
Botwin and Cartwright, the
No. 2 singles duo, won their sec-

a 1-0 lead. They were victors 6-2,

WASHINGTONAmid his year-by-year nar-
rative of his complex relationship with Roger
Clemens and performance-enhancing drugs,
Brian McNamee weaved in a tale of two wives.
He said it was his own wife who nagged himinto
keeping evidence that has become crucial in the
trial of the storied pitcher, and it was a request
from Clemens wife that led to what McNamee
called a creepy injection scene in a bathroom.
Clemens longtime strength coach testified
Tuesday for a second day in the perjury trial,
pushing his running total to roughly10 hours on
the stand, including the first few moments of
what portends to be a grueling cross-examin-
ation that will continue today. The broad outline
was familiar from McNamees previous state-
ments: He said he injected Clemens with ste-
roids and human growth hormone in 2000 and
with steroids in 2001, and he gave Debbie Clem-
ens a shot of HGHin 2003. That was in addition

2 of the teams Eastern Confer-
ence semifinal series Tuesday
night after LeBronJames and
Dwyane Wade both came up
short on key opportunities in
the final minute.
Defense and rebounding,
Indiana coach Frank Vogel said.
We built this team, we started
talking about smash-mouth bas-
ketball about winningthewar in
the trenches, and thats with de-
fense and rebounding. Thats
what I grew up watching East-
ernConferencebasketball being
like. We understand offense is
goingtocomeandgo, especially
like a great defensive team like
these guys ... but were pretty
good too.
The series is tied at 1-1, with
Game 3 in Indianapolis on
Thursday night.
James scored 28 points for
Miami and Wade finished with
24, though both failed to con-
vert bigchances late. James mis-
sed two free throws with 54.3
seconds left and Miami down
one, and Wade was short on a
layup that would have tied the
game with 16 seconds remain-
ing. Moments later, a few of the
Pacers were leaping in celebra-
tion at midcourt of Miamis

PHILADELPHIAHunter
Pence atoned for a ninth-inning
error by hitting his second home
run of the game, a solo shot in
the10th that lifted the Phillies
to a 4-3 victory.
Pence connected against
former Philadelphia closer Brett
Myers (0-1) with one out to give
the Phillies their first three-
game winning streak of the
season.
Pences bobble in right field
while trying to make a throw
home allowed Houston to tie it
with two outs in the ninth.
The NL East champions
ended a dubious drought with
Pences ninth homer of the
season. This was the longest
stretch of games (37) into a
season without a three-game
win streak for the Phillies since
1971, when they needed 51
games. Jake Diekman tossed1
1-3 scoreless innings to win his
major league debut.
Padres 6, Nationals1
WASHINGTONStephen
Strasburg left after only four
innings Tuesday, matching the
second-shortest appearance of
his 25-start career, and San
Diegos Will Venable had four
hits, while John Baker delivered
three hits and three RBIs, lead-
ing the Padres to a 6-1victory
over the Washington Nationals.
Anthony Bass (2-4) mak-
ing his 10th start in the majors
tied his longest outing by
going eight innings. He allowed
five hits and one run on
Bryce Harpers homer to right-
center, the19-year-old outfiel-
ders second consecutive game
with a solo shot.
Brewers 8, Mets 0
NEWYORKZack Greinke
overcame his road woes and ran
his scoreless streak to15 in-
nings, Travis Ishikawa homered
twice and drove in a career-high
five runs, and the Milwaukee
Brewers beat the NewYork
Mets 8-0 Tuesday night for a
split of the two-game series.
Greinke (4-1) pitched five-hit
ball for seven dominant innings.
He pitched eight innings in his
start last Wednesday but Mil-
waukees bullpen was beaten by
the Reds.
Cardinals 7, Cubs 6
ST. LOUIS Yadier Molina
hit an RBI single off second
baseman Darwin Barneys glove
with two outs in the ninth in-
ning, helping the Cardinals
avoid a sweep and an 0-5 home-
stand.
Matt Holliday and Matt Car-
penter homered for St. Louis.
Allen Craig had three hits and
two RBIs and Tyler Greene
snapped an 0-for-17 skid with
three hits.
The Cubs tied it at 6 in the
top half of the ninth on Alfonso
Sorianos first homer of the
season. Soriano hit 26 last year.
Marlins 6, Pirates 2
MIAMI Josh Johnson
allowed two runs over seven
innings for his first victory in
more than a year, and the Miami
Marlins beat the Pittsburgh
Pirates 6-2 on Tuesday night.
Johnson (1-3) had gone win-
less in12 starts since his most
recent victory on April 19, 2011.
He missed the final 4
1
2 months
of last season because of right
shoulder inflammation.
Braves 6, Reds 2
ATLANTABrian McCann
homered and the Braves scored
four runs in the third inning to
beat the Cincinnati Reds 6-2 on
Tuesday night, giving Johnny
Cueto his first loss.
Cueto (4-1) led the major
leagues with his 1.12 ERAbefore
giving up six runs, five earned,
on eight hits in four innings.
The right-hander had allowed
only one earned run over 23
innings in his last three starts.

BALTIMORE Wei-Yin
Chen pitched seven innings of
four-hit ball, Adam Jones
homered and the Baltimore
Orioles beat CC Sabathia and
the New York Yankees 5-2
Tuesday night.
J.J. Hardy drove in two runs
for Baltimore, which earned a
split of the two-game series
and improved to 1-4 at home
against New York.
Chen (4-0) allowed two runs,
struck out four and walked two
in a masterful performance.
Making his seventh major
league start, the 26-year-old
Taiwan native took a shutout
into the seventh inning .
Red Sox 5, Mariners 0
BOSTON Josh Beckett
redeemed himself less than a
week after being booed off the
mound, striking out a season-
high nine as the Boston Red
Sox shut out the Seattle Mari-
ners 5-0 on Tuesday and ex-
tended their winning streak to
five.
Beckett (3-4) scattered four
hits over seven innings before
being pulled as a steady rain
started to fall late in the after-
noon.
Rays 4, Blue Jays 3
TORONTO David Price
won for the fifth time in six
starts, Sean Rodriguez home-
red and the Tampa Bay Rays
rallied from a 3-0 deficit to beat

his mastery of the Blue Jays.
Angels 4, Athletics 0
ANAHEIM, Calif. Ervin
Santana struck out nine during
7 2-3 innings of four-hit ball,
Albert Pujols drove in two runs
with infield singles, and the
Los Angeles Angels rebounded
from yet another shutout loss
with a 4-0 victory over the
Oakland Athletics on Tuesday
night.
Mike Trout went 3 for 4 with
a homer and three runs scored
for the Angels, who finally
produced enough offense to
back a strong performance by
Santana (2-6).
Indians 5, Twins 0
MINNEAPOLIS Derek
Lowe pitched his first shutout
in nearly seven years, throwing
a six-hitter and leading the
Cleveland Indians over Minne-
sota.
Shin-Soo Choo, the Indians
new leadoff man, scored after a

inning and then hit the first of
three Cleveland home runs in
the fifth against Jason Marquis
(2-3). Asdrubal Cabrera and
Carlos Santana also homered.

CHICAGO Miguel Cabre-
ra, Ryan Raburn and Austin

inning and the Detroit Tigers

RACES FOR
DIVISIONtitles
are coming
right down to
the wire in the
Wyoming Val-
ley Conference,
and the weath-
er is adding to the drama of the
seasons final days.
Seven teams remain in the
hunt for the three divisional
titles. The most intriguing race is
in the Division I West, where
Berwick, Tunkhannock and
Wyoming Area all have opportu-
nities to take the title.
Tunkhannock (7-5), which lost
its last two league games to
Wyoming Area and Berwick, has
an outside shot at a share of the
West crown. The Tigers were the
early leaders in the division at 4-1,
but stumbled since a difficult pair
of games against Hazleton Area
and Nanticoke.
Were better than what we
showed, Tunkhannock coach
John Keefe said after his teams
2-0 loss to the Warriors on May 3.
The Tigers, who last won the
West in 2010 and were in a playoff
last season, followed that effort
with an 8-3 loss to the Bulldogs.
Berwick (8-4) has won four of
its last five, including victories
over Nanticoke and Tunkhan-
nock. The Bulldogs still have a
game at Dallas on Wednesday,
then a must-win game against
Wyoming Area if Berwick wants
a share of the title.
I hope this (beating Nanti-
coke) sends a message that were
coming hard at everyone, Ber-
wick outfielder Chelsea Pruitt
said April 30.
Wyoming Area (9-4) won just
four games last season. The
Warriors are riding a five-game
winning streak as coach Stepha-
nie Griffin has her teamin posi-
tion for its first divisional cham-
pionship during these Warriors
lives.
These kids have been coming
through when you need themto,
Griffin said. When you have a
defense you can change and
make adjustments to like this, its
a big help.
The Warriors can win their
first WVCtitle since 1991by
beating Berwick on Thursday.
DIVISIONI EAST: Hazleton
Area and Nanticoke are tied at
10-2, and both have a busy week
ahead.
The Trojanettes, winners of the
last three East titles, have home
games against Coughlin and
Crestwood, and a road game at
Holy Redeemer remaining. Ha-
zleton Area, winners of eight
division titles in the past 12 years,
has the same matchups remain-
ing.
Hazleton Area took a 7-0 ver-
dict over Nanticoke just last
week.
All it did was create a tie with
them, Hazleton Area coach
Vince Trivelpiece said. Hes
(Nanticoke coach Gary Williams)
won two state titles and count-
less (WVCand District 2) cham-
pionships. I hope these people
here (in Nanticoke) realize how
lucky they are to have him.
Williams was impressed with
what he sawfromthe Cougars,
who had lost to Nanticoke 5-0 on
April 4.
They made a lot of contact,
Williams said. They put the ball
in play against us.
Both teams have high hopes
for long postseason runs. Nanti-
coke had a nine-game winning
streak snapped by Berwick. Ha-
zleton Areas current win streak
is a WVC-season high10 games.
DIVISIONII: Hanover Area
(9-0) came close to a division
title in 2004, losing a playoff to
Bishop Hafey. It was just a year
earlier that there were some
doubts as to the future of the
Hawkeyes program.
Since that time, Dallas, Lake-
Lehman and Northwest have
won the Division 2 crown, with
the Rangers winning the past
four seasons.
But here are the Hawkeyes, on
the precipice of their first title in
recent memory. Awin Friday
against Northwest (9-1) all but
assures the Hawkeyes of the
crown. Awin against the Rangers
and either Wyoming Seminary or
Meyers will give Hanover Area
the outright title.
That was one of our goals,
said coach Tami Thomas, whose
Hawkeyes went 12-2 last season.
Were not going into this over-
confident. They are a good team.
But if we come ready to play, we
can reach our goal.
Northwest must defeat Hanov-
er Area to have a shot at a playoff
for the division, barring upsets in
the leaders remaining slates.
TOURNEY TIME: Wyoming
Seminary has opted out of the
District 2 Class Atournament,
making that a seven-teamtourna-
ment. Northwest is in line to be
the top seed and earn a bye into
the semifinals.
The Class Aand 4Atourna-
ments will nowbegin Thursday,
May 24. The semifinals will be
Tuesday, May 29, and the finals
will be Thursday, May 31.
The brackets were originally
set to play Tuesday, May 22, with
semifinals May 24. The finals are
nowa day later than their origi-
nal May 30 listing, setting them
off fromthe Class 3Aand 2A
finals.
The Class 3Aand 2Aschedule
remains unchanged, with games
on Monday, May 21; Wednesday,
May 23; Friday, May 25; and
Wednesday, May 30.

Tigers earn dramatic win
Times Leader Staff
floor, something that Wade said
was noticed afterward.
The game is not lost or won
with two free throws, James
said. But I definitely want to
comethroughfor myteammates.
So Ill get an opportunity again. I
know Ill be at the line again in
that situation. Just go up and
make em.
Miami was without Chris
Bosh, whos sidelined indefinite-
ly almost certainly the rest of
the series, possibly longer if the
Heat advance after he strained
a lower abdominal muscle in
Game 1.
His absencewas notedinmany
ways. Miami shot 35 percent, got
outrebounded 50-40 and besides
James and Wade, no other Heat
player scored more than five
points. After Wades missed lay-
upthat wouldhavetiedthegame,
he remained on the court for a
few extra seconds, looking ex-
hausted until James who said
Wade would make that shot 10
out of 10times pulledhimup.
Chris was missed, no doubt
about it, Wade said. But thats
not the reason we lost this ball
game.
TheHeat wereoutscored28-14
in the third quarter, shooting 3
for 17 in that period. They didnt
score in the final 2:41, and when
Mario Chalmers missed a 3-
pointer that wouldhave tiedit on
the last play, Miami dropped to 1
for 16 from 3-point range on the
night, 1 for 22 in the series.
Welcome to the playoffs, for
us, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra
said. Thats how were viewing
it. This series has started. They
won on our home court. Nowwe
have to collect ourselves, gather
ourselves andget ready for Game
3. Thats all that matters right
now.
GeorgeHill had15points, Dan-
ny Granger scored 11 and Paul
George added 10 for Indiana,
whichmadeonly38percent of its
shots. The Pacers had been 2-9
this season when shooting that
poorly, yet got a split in Miami
anyway.
I feel like we should be 2-0,
George said.
James had a chance to give
Miami the lead with1:22 left, but
his shot was blockedfrombehind
by George, who was fouled two
seconds later. He missed both
free throws, keeping the Indiana
lead at 76-75. And after Wade
missed a jumper, James was
fouled by Granger his sixth
battlingfor thereboundwith54.3
seconds remaining.
James missed both shots, and
Indiana held on from there.
Their thirdleadingscorer had
five points and thats what you
want to do, Granger said. If Le-
Bron James gets 11 assists they
are probably going to win. They
scored a lot, but we stopped ev-
eryone else.
Emotions pickedupconsidera-
bly in the fourth.
Wade was steaming when he

ate contact with Indianas Dahn-

argued, Jones went the other way
and set Leandro Barbosa up for a
score that put the Pacers up 63-
56.

BALTIMORE Four days
before the Preakness, Ill Have
Another trainer Doug ONeill
was feeling very skittish about
his pending appearance on the
grand stage.
His nervousness had noth-
ing to do with saddling up the
Kentucky Derby winner Satur-
day with the Triple Crown
hanginginthe balance. ONeill
didnt care that it was too wet
to send Ill Have Another out
on the track, and he certainly
wasnt uneasy about the Preak-
ness coming down to another
duel between his horse and
Derby pace-setter Bodemeis-
ter.
No, the usually laid-back
ONeill was frettingover his as-
signment Tuesday night at
Camden Yards: Throwing out
the ceremonial first pitch be-
fore the game between the Bal-
timore Orioles and New York
Yankees.
Id be lying if I said I wasnt
in my hotel room throwing
shampoo bottles at pillows,
he said Tuesday morning. My
biggest thing is not bouncing
it. The more people say dont
bounce it, the more likely you
will bounce it. Im just trying
to stay focused on throwing it
straight and strong and not
embarrassing the Ill Have An-
other team.
He dida fine job. Standingin
front of the mound, ONeill
peered for an imaginary sign
from Orioles infielder Ryan
Flaherty, who was poised be-
hind the plate. ONeill then
went into an exaggerated
windup and unleashed a high
pitch that Flaherty snagged af-
ter leaping from his crouch.
ONeill broke a trend by
shipping his horse to Pimlico
Race Course just two days af-
ter the Derby, andhe arrivedin
towntwo days after that. Since
then, hes been preparing Ill
Have Another for the Preak-
ness and doing all things Balti-
more.
ONeill watched the Balti-
more Ravens rookies practice
last weekend and had lunch
withcoachJohnHarbaugh. On
Monday night, he tried crabs
for the first time.
Its a lot of work with a mal-
let. I felt like a carpenter,
ONeill said. It was good. We
experienced the common food
of Baltimore. I think next time
Ill look for the crab cakes.
Thats the lazy mans way of
eating crab. Pulling the legs
and cracking this and that, it
does seem like too much
work.
Onthe topic of work, ONeill
decided Ill Have Another
didnt have to do any Tuesday
on a wet, dreary morning at
Pimlico.
With Ill Have Another be-
ing as fit as he is and the fact
hes doing so good, we figured
the weather forecast is sup-
posed to be nice starting to-
morrow, so why take him out
there? ONeill said. Like the
rest of us, we all like a day off.
We gave the whole barn a day
off. He looks fantastic.

The All-Star Game is finally
returning to Queens next sea-
son after a 48-year hiatus, only
this time to Citi Field, and Ma-
jor League Baseball will make
the official announcement to-
day at a City Hall news confer-
ence, according to a person fa-
miliar with the situation.
The fact that Citi Field would
host the 2013 Midsummer Clas-
sic was the worst kept secret in
baseball as plans had been in the
works for nearly two years. New
York last had the All-Star Game
in 2008, during the farewell sea-
son of old Yankee Stadium, and
the logistics of pulling off such
an event in the city have become
even more complex since that
time.
Commissioner Bud Selig said
a month ago during an Associ-
ated Press Sports Editors meet-
ing at MLB headquarters that
an announcement on the 2013
game at Citi Field would be
forthcoming.
"I just had a couple of other
things I wanted to analyze be-
fore I did it," Selig said then.
While the All-Star game itself
is usually played on the second
Tuesday in July that would
be July 9 in 2013 MLB also
schedules the Futures Game, for
top prospects, on the preceding
Sunday and the Home Run Der-
by for Monday night.
In 2008, MLB had a five-day
Fan Fest at the Javits Conven-
tion Center on the Manhattans
West Side and also arranged for
a pre-game "Red Carpet" parade
that went up Sixth Avenue from
Bryant Park to Central Park.
The 2013 event should have sim-
ilar festivities, which likely is
what involved more protracted
discussions with city officials.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg,
Mets chairman and CEO Fred
Wilpon and Selig are scheduled
to be at Wednesdays press con-
ference, which is scheduled to
begin at 11:30 a.m.
Shea Stadiumhosted the1964
All-Star Game in its first year of
existence and never again. The
Mets had only player on the Na-
tional League roster, second
baseman Ron Hunt. The Giants
Juan Marichal was the winning
pitcher and the Phillies Johnny
Callison earned MVP honors for
hitting a three-run homer off the
Red Soxs Dick Radatz in the
ninth inning.

All-Stars

Official announcement will be
made today. Mets last hosted

back for the wins. It was similar
to last weeks performance
against ScrantonPrepfor the Dis-
trict 2 title.
We usually get into a deficit
right when we start and we real-
ize thats a wake-up call and we
have to get our feet moving and
get our shots consistent, Botwin
said. Its just a matter of gettinga
gameplan and feeling things out.
We change all of our shots when
were going and adjust to their
style of play.
When Botwin and Cartwright
finished, the singles second sets
were just getting underway.
And they presented a chal-
lenge as well.
Harry Parkhurst and Cornell
dropped their respective second
stanzas, 2-6and3-6, as the match-
es went on to decisive third sets.
Meanwhile, the No. 1 doubles
team of Christopher Kim and
Willie Lu evened its match with a
second-set victory. But Kim and
Lu fell in the third set and the
match was even at 1-1, setting up
a frantic finish.
George Parkhurst finished off
Madhav Valla 6-3 in the second
set and that gave Wyoming Semi-
nary a 2-1 advantage. He then sat
and watched his brother and Cor-
nell try to help the team to victo-
ry.
Harry Parkhurst and Cornell,
who will also teamup for the Dis-
trict 2 Class 2A Doubles Tourna-
ment which will be held today
and tomorrow at Kirby Park,
each dropped their first game of
the third set.
Cornell didnt lose any more
games after that, while Harry
Parkhurst only fell in one more.
Harry Parkhurst won his match
minutes before Cornell when a
return serve from Andrew Ma
was outside the line to clinch the
team victory.
I didnt knowhowthe doubles
were doing, but I knew how the
singles were doing and every
match was close so I was getting
pretty nervous that it was going
to be a close match, Harry Park-
hurst added.
In the Class 3Amatch at Birch-
wood, D2 champion Delaware
Valley lost to Cedar Crest 5-0.

come a reluctant but cooperating
witness against one of the most
successful baseball players of all
time.
It destroyed me. It killed me.
... I put myself in a situation
where I had to do this, McNa-
mee said. I had to tell the truth.
Some details were newandfas-
cinating, especially hearing them
spoken out loud in a courtroom
with Clemens sitting a few feet
away. At one dramatic point, the
adversaries were actually both
standing, when McNamee rose
from the witness stand and iden-
tified Clemens with an out-
stretched left arm: Hes right
there with the brown tie. Clem-
ens looked straight at McNamee,
stone-faced and silent.
McNamee is far and away the
governments key witness, the
only person who will claim first-
hand knowledge of Clemens tak-
ing performance-enhancing
drugs. The former baseball great
is accused of lying when he told
Congress in2008that he hadnev-
er used steroids or HGH.
McNamee againgave vividand
colorful details about injections.
He appearedless nervous thanhe
didonMonday, andhis voicerose
as he spoke of marital problems
that he said developed in part be-
cause of his relationship with
Clemens. The time away from
home training Clemens meant
McNamee didnt have time to
take his wife and children to wa-
ter parks and other family out-
ings, he said, and his wife was
concerned that her husband
would become a fall guy at Clem-
ens expense.
Youre going to go down!
Youre going to go down! Youre
going to go down! Brian McNa-
mee said his wife, Eileen, told
himin the middle of a battle roy-
ale argument.
McNameesaidhethought she
might be right, so he kept the
needle, swabandcottonball from
a steroids injection he said took
place in Clemens New York City
apartment in2001. He saidhe put
the items ina beer canthat he sal-
vaged from the recycling bin in
Clemens kitchen a means of
protecting the used needle from
accidently stabbing himself
and brought the can home. It was
put ina FedExboxandkept inthe
house, an effort to keep the
home front nice and smooth,
McNamee said.
Years later, McNamee and his
wife began divorce proceedings,
which are ongoing.
Inhis 2008congressional depo-
sition, McNamee said he also
kept the leftover waste from the
injection because he distrusted
Clemens to a degree. He didnt
mention that reason on the stand
Tuesday.
McNamee said he kept the evi-
dence a secret even when he
was tellinginvestigators about in-
jections hegaveprobaseball play-
ers because he was hoping he
could minimize the impact on
Clemens. It wasnt until 2008, af-
ter McNamee was angered by a
news conference at which Clem-
ens lawyers playedatapedphone
call that contained medical de-
tails about McNamees oldest
son, that McNamee retrieved his
collection of medical waste and
turned it in.
It was beyond inhuman to do
that to a kid, McNamee said.
He had nothing to do with ste-
roids in baseball, my son.
The prosecution is expected to
show that the evidence contains
Clemens DNA. The defense has
calledtheevidencegarbage and
is expected to claim it is tainted.
McNamee said Debbie Clem-
ens, whom McNamee described
as a fitness enthusiast, started
asking about HGH during one of
McNamees regular multiday vis-
its to train Clemens at the pitch-
ers home in Houston in 2003. On
a later visit, he said Roger Clem-
ens summoned him to the cou-
ples master bathroom, where
McNameesaidClemens wifelift-
ed her shirt so she could receive
aninjectionnear thebellybutton.

fields ... But the bowls have been
goodto us. If youtook themout of
the playoff, it would pretty much
destroy the bowl system.
A four-team Football Bowl
Championship system debuts in
the 2014 season, replacing a cur-
rent No.1vs. No. 2 BCSchampion-
ship game that has rotated among
theSugar, Orange, FiestaandRose
Bowl sites.
Delany and Big Ten administra-
tors will continue meeting on
Wednesday. The sessions at a
downtown hotel include confer-
ence athletic directors, senior
women administrations and facul-
ty representatives.
Options for selecting the four
teams include taking the top four
teams in a poll, the four highest-
rankedconference champions or a
combination of both.
I do think theres roomfor con-
ference champions and this is a
personal observation as well as
highly-rated non-conference
champions and independents,
Delany said. Howthat happens is
to be determined.
Delany also doesnt want to wa-
ter down the rest of the college
football season.
The regular season has been
and will continue to be the bed-
rockof collegefootball, hesaid. I
knowthat thepostseasonisimpor-
tant, I know that the champion-
ship game will be important and
the model that leads to that game
will be important.
I dont want to adopt a model
that discourages playing good op-
ponents or any way belittles the
regular season championship
process, he said.
Several athletic directors who
spoke Tuesday were adamant
about preserving traditional
bowls, particularly the Rose
Bowls matchupof theBigTenand
Pac-12 champion.
For us its critical to keep the
RoseBowl intheequation, Michi-
gan State athletic director Mark
Hollis said. From kids perspec-
tive, thebowl experienceistheone
thing they want to keep. Semifi-
nals at bowl sites provide that, its
where fans can gather. With cam-
pus sites, it becomes (more) like a
regular-season game.
Picking No. 1 vs. No. 2 for a na-
tional championship game has
been complicated and with a four-
team field controversies could
multiply.
Who are the teams? Hollis
said. Whodecidesteams?Isthere
a committee? Are you strictly go-
ing by polls?
Its very easy to determine 1
and 2 (but) 3 and 4 get complicat-
ed, he said. Polls can do a good
job with 1 and 2. Im not so sure
they can do a good job with 3 and
4.
InApril, commissioners from11
conferences andNotreDamereac-
hed a consensus on a four-team
playoff with two national semifi-
nals followed by a championship
game. Theproposedformat would
schedule semifinals after Christ-
mas and a national title game
around Jan. 1.
Commissioners are scheduled
tomeet inlateJuneandhaveanew
format inplacefor approval byuni-
versity presidents by July 4. BCS
Executive Director Bill Hancock
said last month that if no agree-
ment was reached, an overhauled
versionof No.1vs. 2championship
game would be used.
Osborne, meanwhile, is uncer-
tain whether the field would re-
main at four.
There will be a push to make it
eight or16, hesaid. WhenI start-
ed coaching, the regular season
was nine games, and then 10, 11
and 12. Now with conference
championship game (and a play-
off) youre dealing with 15 games
(and it could go) to16 or 17.

GLENDALE, Ariz. Jeff Car-
ter scored three goals, Jonathan
Quick stopped 24 shots and the
Los Angeles Kings matched an
NHL record with their seventh
straight road playoff victory,
beating the Phoenix Coyotes 4-0
Tuesday night to take control of
Western Conference finals.
Los Angeles dominated the
opener and was even better in
Game 2, withstanding Phoenixs
initial push and string of penal-
ties for a 2-0 series lead.
Dwight King scored his third
goal in two games and Quick
tied a teamrecord with his third
career playoff shutout togivethe
Kings a dominating lead head-
ing into Game 3 Thursday night
in Los Angeles.
The Kings have won nine
straight road playoff games in
two seasons, matching the NHL
recordset by the NewYorkIslan-
ders from1982-83.
The Islanders wonthe Stanley
Cup both of those years.
Quick matched Felix Potvins
team record for playoff shutouts
and Carter finished off his first
career playoff hat trick in the
third period, securing the Kings
seventh straight win overall.
The Coyotes played better
early and fell apart late, becom-
ing frustrated after being unable
to contain the more-skilled
Kings.
Phoenix was hit with a string
of penalties starting late in the
second period, including a game
misconduct to captain Shane
Doan for boarding Kings center
Trevor Lewis. Martin Hanzal al-
so received one for boarding
DustinBrowninthe thirdperiod
andthe Coyotes had13 penalties
for 56 minutes most coming
after the final 5 minutes of the
second period.
The Kings won the opener 4-2
by outplaying and outhustling
Phoenix.
Knowing Phoenixs makeup,
the Kings figured to get more of
a pushback in Game 2.
And the Coyotes were much
more aggressive early, winning
some of the individual battles
they lost in Game 1 while creat-
ing some decent scoring chanc-
es.
Even with all of Phoenixs
hard work and a couple of line
changes by coach Dave Tippett,
the Kings still managed to score
first. King got it, redirecting a
shot by Drew Doughty that beat
Mike Smith stick side late in the
period.
Hard work in the corners by
Mike Richards set up Los An-
geles second goal, by Carter. He
muscled the puck past Smiths
glove side as he was going down
on a feed from Dustin Penner
that made it 2-0 early in the sec-
ond period.
Ive been working hard in
practice to get my game where I
wanted it, Carter said.

NEW YORK Jimmy
Johnson was asked if he ev-
er considered getting back
into college coaching and
responded by taking out his
phone and scrolling
through his pictures.
Theres where I live on
the ocean, he said. What I
spend my time doing is ...
And Johnson showed the
small crowd gathered
around him a photo of him-
self and a 250-pound blue
marlin he caught one morn-
ing, fishing by himself off
the coast of Florida.
TheyrealizenowImnot
coming back, said John-
son, whowent 52-9andwon
the 1987 national cham-
pionship in five years at the
University of Miami before
leaving to become coach of
the Dallas Cowboys.
Thats OK, Jimmy. Youve
doneenoughtobeaCollege
Football Hall of Famer.
Johnson was part of a
class of 17 former players
andcoaches selectedfor the
hall by the National Foot-
ball Foundation and an-
nounced Tuesday at the
Nasdaq stock exchange in
Times Square.
While winning back-to-
back Super Bowls with the
Dallas Cowboys was re-
warding, the most fun I had
in football was in college,
Johnson said.
The other coaches to be
inducted in December are
Phillip Fulmer, who won
the first BCS title in 1998
with Tennessee, and R.C.
Slocum, the winningest
coach in Texas A&M histo-
ry.
Ty Detmer, the record-
breaking 1990 Heisman
Trophy winning quarter-
back for BYU, led a group of
14 players heading to the
Hall of Fame.
Steve Bartkowski, who
played quarterback at Cali-
fornia from 1970-72, joined
Johnson at the news confer-
ence in Manhattan. He said
the call he received from
NFF President and CEO
Steve Hatchell to let him
know that he had been se-
lected to the Hall of Fame
caught him totally off
guard.
When Steve called last
week to inform me, I
thought he had the wrong
number, said Bartkowski,
who led the nation in yards
passing as a senior and was
drafted first overall by the
Atlanta Falcons. Its abso-
lutely an honor.
The rest of the class in-
cludes receiver Art Monk of
Syracuse; tight end Dave
Casper of Notre Dame;
tackle Jonathan Ogden of
UCLA; running backs Char-
les Alexander of LSU and
Otis Armstrong of Purdue;
quarterback Tommy Kram-
er of Rice; defensive backs
Scott Thomas of Air Force
and Greg Myers of Colora-
do State; split end Hal Bed-
sole of Southern California;
defensive end Gabe Rivera
of Texas Tech; linebacker
Mark Simoneau of Kansas
State; and guard John Woo-
ten of Colorado.
Johnson, who has be-
come a fixture working as
an NFL analyst for Fox,
spent five seasons at Okla-
homaStatebeforereplacing
Howard Schnellenberger at
Miami in 1984. He coached
two College Football Hall of
Famers defensive tackle
Russell Maryland and de-
fensive back Bennie Blades
and at least one more
eventual honoree in 1986
Heisman winner Vinny
Testaverde.
He left Miami after the
1988 season for the NFL.
It was a challenge,
Johnson said. I think thats
why coaches leave college
to give professional football
a shot. The challenge. Their
ownegos. Andthats what it
was for me.
I toldthe teamthis is not
really something I want to
do. This is somethingI have
to do just for my own ego.
It worked out just fine, of
course. Hes got the spar-
kling Super Bowl ring to
prove it. Johnson built an-
other dynasty in Dallas and
had some success with the
Miami Dolphins, but it
wasnt the same in the NFL.

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio Once
Kyrie Irving finished cracking jokes,
thanking Clevelands fans, his team-
mates and coaches, he looked down
from the podium at the person who
promised this would happen.
He was the NBAs Rookie of the Year.
This award is for us, Irving said to
his father, Dred, who raised his son af-
ter his wife, Elizabeth, died 15 years
ago. Were bringing it back home and
were going to put it right on the man-
tle and were going to put some flash-
ing lights on it so it shines throughout
the whole entire house.
This season, Irving shined bright-
est.
The 20-year-old ran away in voting
by a nationwide media panel that
could have handed in ballots with two
months left in the season. There was
really no other choice.
Irving received 117 of 120 possible
first-place votes from writers and
broadcasters and finished with 592
points, more than three times as many
as Minnesotas Ricky Rubio (170), who
finished second despite missing most
of the season with a knee injury. Den-
vers Kenneth Faried (129) was a dis-
tant third.
Faried, San Antonios Kawhi Leo-
nard and New Yorks Iman Shumpert
received the other first-place votes,
stopping Irving from joining Blake
Griffin (2011), David Robinson (1990)
and Ralph Sampson (1984) as the only
players to win the award unanimously.
Irving played beyond his years and
above everyones expectations in-
cluding his own this season when
he routinely took over games in the
fourth quarter and renewed the hopes
of a Cleveland franchise still putting
together the pieces after LeBron
James left as a free agent two summers
ago.
Irving always felt the award was
within his reach.
It was a goal of mine, Irving said.
I kept it on the back burner. I knewas
long as we won games and we beat
great teams that it was going to come.
The first pick in last years draft, Irv-
ing led all rookies and the Cavs
in scoring with 18.5 points per game.
He also led first-year players in field-
goal percentage (46.8), was second in
assists (5.4) and became one of just six
rookies in league history to average at
least 18 points and five assists.
However, it was the other elements
of his game a nasty crossover drib-
ble, a fearless desire to get to the bas-
ket, anda clutch, cold-bloodedinstinct
in the fourth quarter that separated
him from the others.
Cavs coach Byron Scott knewIrving
was special long before he made his
pro debut.
The day we brought him in for his
individual workout before the draft, I
thought he was definitely the best
player that we had, Scott said.

The Associated Press is reporting
that Clevelands Kyrie Irving is the
NBAs Rookie of the Year.
SMITHTOWN, N.Y. The biggest
goal of Keeling Pilaros field hockey ca-
reer happened far from an athletic field
on Tuesday.
An athletics committee determined
the 13-year-old boy can keep playing on
the girls varsity team at Southampton
High School, at least for one more sea-
son. The decision at an appeals hearing
Tuesday reverses earlier rulings that
claimed Keelings skills as a field hockey
player, which he developed growing up
inDublin, Ireland, haddevelopedtoalev-
el superior to those of girls.
I was jumping up and down; I was so
excited when I heard, the youngster
said in a telephone interview about an
hour after the decision was announced
by an attorney for the athletics commit-
tee. I can play!
Kevin Seaman, the attorney for the
committee that oversees public school
athleticsinSuffolkCounty, saidpanelists
determined that Keelings continued
participation on the team ultimately
would not have a significant adverse ef-
fect on girls opportunity to participate
ininterschool competition. That was the
same criteria usedearlier this year when
officials for the committee saidKeelings
skills had exceeded those of his female
teammates and competitors.
Reporters were not permittedinto the
closed meeting.
Seamansaidthe vote to allowKeeling
to play was not unanimous, but he de-
clinedtobreakit down. About twodozen
officialsdeliberatedfor about 40minutes
after the youngster and his mother and
their attorneys presented arguments for
allowinghimtocontinue. Theboys high
school field hockey coach also attended.
Officials previously cited the fact that
Keeling was named to an all-conference
teamafter scoring10 goals and eight as-
sists as an eighth-grader playing on the
Southamptonvarsitylast season. But the
boys supporters said another girl also
made the all-conference team also was
an eighth-grader. They noted that Keel-
ings skills did not earn him the more
prestigious all-county honors, and also
pointed out that Southamptons squad
finished in fourth place in its conference
last year.
In order to play with the girls after
moving to New York from Ireland, Keel-
ing had to get permission from Suffolks
mixed-competition committee, which
screens players who want to compete on
teams of the opposite sex. There have
been several occasions where girls have
beenapprovedtoplayfootball, wrestleor
competeinother traditional boys sports,
but Keeling is believedto be the first boy
to play alongside girls on Long Island.

RICHMOND, Va. Virginia
Commonwealth University went
fromVCWho to the biggest sto-
ry of the 2011 NCAA basketball
tournament when it made an im-
probable run to the Final Four.
Now the Rams are cashing in.
VCU and coach Shaka Smart
hope a move to the Atlantic 10
will give them a chance to keep
building off that momentum as
up-and-comers on the national
stage.
VCU announced Tuesday it is
leaving the Colonial Athletic As-
sociation for the Atlantic 10, a
basketball-driven league and big
winner sofar inoffseasonrealign-
ment.
This is a tremendous opportu-
nity that really represents the
best interests of this institution,
VCU President Michael Rao said
at a press conference inthe Seigel
Center.
Butler, which beat VCU in the
national semifinals last year,
joined the A-10 on May 2. But
while Butler wont come aboard
until the 2013-14 school year,
VCU is all-in come July 1.
For the Rams, the move is
clearly about long-term growth
and increased exposure.
They are forfeiting nearly $5
million in NCAA tournament
money due them over the next
six years under the guidelines of
CAA bylaws, will pay the CAA a
$250,000 exit fee and a $700,000
fee to join the A-10, interim ath-
letic director David Benedict
said.
But the key for VCU, Rao said,
is theywill retainthe opportunity
to compete for championships in
the coming season, increase the
visibility of the school andexpect
to be able to attract better ath-
letes andbetter students withthe
step up in competition.
We need to be willing, and
we are certainly able, to compete
at the very highest levels, and we
look forward to doing that in the
A-10.

Facebook IPO price grows
Already expected to be the largest-
ever initial public offering for an In-
ternet company, Facebook is making
its IPO even bigger.
The worlds largest online social
network on Tuesday increased the
planned price range for its stock to $34
to $38 per share in a filing with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
Thats up from its previous range of
$28 to $35. At the upper limit of $38,
the sale would raise about $12.8 billion.
At the same time, half of Americans
think the expected value for Facebook
Inc. is too high, according to a new
Associated Press-CNBC poll conducted
before the company raised its expected
stock price on Tuesday. Only a third of
those surveyed said they think Face-
books expected value is appropriate.
Chesapeakes credit hit
Standard & Poors lowered Chesa-
peake Energys credit rating Tuesday,
questioning how quickly the company
could remedy its financial woes.
Chesapeake shares dropped more
than 6 percent to the lowest level since
March 2009.
The credit ratings agency believes
that Chesapeake will struggle to gener-
ate enough cash to pay off its debts as
natural gas prices plunge. Standard &
Poors also noted that the mounting
turmoil from CEO Aubrey McClen-
dons personal financial dealings could
make it tougher for the company to
raise money in the future.
S&P pushed Chesapeake further into
junk investment territory by dropping
it a notch to BB-, saying the company
faces major ongoing uncertainties to
adverse business, financial and eco-
nomic conditions.
Avon shares decline
Shares of Avon Products Inc. fell
almost 11 percent Tuesday after the
smaller beauty products maker Coty
Inc. dropped its $10.7 billion takeover
bid.
Privately held Coty first made an
offer for Avon Products public on April
2, and the relationship was contentious
from the start. Avon said that offer was
too low, and Coty said it needed to
look at Avons books before it made a
definitive offer.
Last week, Coty set a Monday dead-
line for Avon to decide. On Sunday, the
door-to-door marketer said it would
consider the deal and respond within a
week, but Coty closed the door on
Monday, and investors followed suit.

AMPA, Fla. The CEO of
JPMorgan Chase offered a
quick but blunt apology to sha-
reholders Tuesday for a $2 billion
trading loss that should never have
happened and survived a push to
strip him of the title of chairman of
the board.
CEO Jamie Dimon, who in recent
years has given expansive answers to
questions about the banks handling
of foreclosures and loan modifica-
tions, was unusually subdued at the
JPMorgan annual meeting.
He spent four minutes talking
about the trading loss and steps the
company has taken to address it, and
just two more talking about accom-
plishments of the company over the
past year.
The loss, disclosed Thursday, rat-
tled investor confidence in the large-
st bank in the United States and in
the ability of Wall Street to fight regu-
latory changes more than three years
after the financial crisis.
Of the trade, an ill-timed bet on so-
called credit derivatives, Dimon said:
This should never have happened. I
cant justify it. Unfortunately, these
mistakes are self-inflicted.
Speaking with reporters later, he
added: The buck always stops with
me.
Dimon won a non-binding share-
holder endorsement of his pay pack-
age from last year, which totaled $23
million, according to an Associated
Press analysis of regulatory filings.
Most of the shareholder ballots
were cast in the weeks before Dimon
revealed the trading loss. The pay
package passed with 91percent of the
vote. The vote to strip him of the
chairmans title won only 40 percent
support.

WASHINGTON Americans are
starting to see some relief from higher
gas prices, a change that could revive
the economy in the months ahead.
Consumer prices were flat in April,
largely because of a decline in gas pric-
es. Lower prices at the pump may be
combining with steady job growth to
power more spending on big purchas-
es.
Sales of autos, furniture and elec-
tronics all rose in April. And Americans
spent more at restaurants and bars
generally a sign of confidence in the
economy.
Consumer spending looks to have
started the second quarter on a solid
footing, said Paul Ashworth, an econ-
omist at Capital Economics.
Despite the strength in key areas,
overall retail sales increased just 0.1
percent last month, the Commerce De-
partment said Tuesday. That modest
gain followed two stronger months in
February and March.
Cheaper gas offset some of the gains
in big purchases. The mild winter was
also a factor. In the previous two
months, it boosted sales in areas such
as building materials and gardening
supplies. Spending in those categories
fell sharply in April.
Still, economists were encouraged
by the details in the report. Excluding
autos, gas station sales and spending
on building materials, so-called core
retail sales increased 0.4 percent, a
modest gain.
All the categories that showed gains
are positive signs for consumer spend-
ing going forward, said Leslie Leves-
que, senior economist at IHS Global In-
sight. The categories where there
were declines were mainly a payback
for the warmer weather.
Recent job growth has contributed
to higher consumer confidence. Em-
ployers have added1million jobs in the
past five months, though the pace of
gains has slowed recently.
Another reason to be optimistic: gas
prices are falling after spiking earlier
this year. The national average drop-
ped to $3.73 per gallon on Tuesday,
about 17 cents cheaper than a month
ago, according to a survey by AAA.
Sales at gas stations fell 0.3 percent in
April.
We had expected gas prices to be
elevated until Memorial Day, Leves-
que said. The fact that they have al-
ready retreated so much is a very good
sign. It alleviates the strain on consum-
ers pockets.
Cheaper gas also kept inflation tame.
Gas prices fell a seasonally adjusted 2.6
percent in April, the Labor Depart-
ment said. That offset mild increases in
the cost of food, housing, and clothes.
Spending up
as gas prices
going down

NEW YORK Cheaper gas wont
be enough to get many more Ameri-
cans on the road this summer. Theyre
still too worried about their jobs and
the economy.
Economists andtourismexperts are
expecting only a small uptick in sum-
mer travelers. Gas prices are lower,
but still high enough to keep some
Americans off the road. The job mar-
ket is improving, but still shaky. And
household debt remains high.
Those who do travel wont feel free
to splurge. The bulk of road trippers,
experts say, will take shorter trips and
reduce food and entertainment spend-
ing to conserve cash.
If youfeel less secure about your fu-
ture, you may be less willing to take
this trip, said John Larson, vice presi-
dent for IHS Global Insight, the firm
that analyzed the AAA study.
For Memorial Day weekend, auto
club AAA estimates that 34.8 million
Americans will take trips of at least 50
miles. Thats a half-million more than
Memorial Day 2011 but equal to the
number who traveled two years ago.
Roughly 30.7 million or 88 percent
of those traveling will drive, up 1.2
percent from last year, AAA says. Me-
morial Day tends to be a good indica-
tor of summer travel overall.
Gas prices maykeepsome low-wage
earners home. But for the most part,
Americans will buck up for gas, as-
suming they can afford to take a trip in
the first place.
Cheaper gas doesnt lift projected summer driving

This was not
expected to
be a wet May,
but so far we
are nearly 2
inches above
normal for the
month and 1 inch
above since
March 1. Since
Jan. 1, there is
now a much
smaller decit of
only four-tenths
of an inch. Today
will be a very
warm day with
a good deal of
sunshine. A cold
front will arrive
around 5 p.m.,
and there may
be a shower as
the wind shifts
toward the
north. Then,
overnight, much
cooler and much
drier air will
move in for
Thursday.
Indeed, Thursday
looks gorgeous
and so does
Friday, and I
expect to have
good news about
the weekend
weather as well.
Stay tuned.
- Tom Clark
NATIONAL FORECAST: Showers and a few isolated thunderstorms will be possible along a cold front

peratures are
right around
the corner. If
youre looking
for a quick hors
doeuvre idea or
a flavorful light appetizer, then I
believe I have the answer for

balance the sharpness from the
feta cheese.

relax and enjoy the dish, well
do the cooking for you. We will
offer Balsamic Feta Bruschetta
at Vanderlyns Restaurant begin-
ning today through the week-
end. For reservations or addi-
tional features call Vanderlyns

BILL TARUTIS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER
Culinary Intern TomSkudalski
prepared this bruschetta at Van-
derlyns Restaurant in Kingston.
Thin-sliced roasted turkey,
prosciutto and soppressata no
longer arethedomainof thedeli.
Food companies looking to
capitalize on consumers in-
creasingly sophisticated tastes
and their need for speed at
the grocer and at home are
carving out new directions in
lunch meat with upscale op-
tions that are pre-sliced, pre-
packaged and ready to go right
alongside the bologna.
They also are revamping the
classics, offering new flavors
and styles of basic deli meats,
including better-for-you op-
tions suchas the newline of Os-
car Mayer Selects.
There has been a huge ex-
pansion of flavors, says Janet
Riley, whohas seenthe trendas
senior vice president for public
affairs and member services at
the Washington-based Ameri-
can Meat Institute and as a
mom. She was recently picking
out hamfor her sons lunch and
was struck by the smoked, the
honey, Black Forest, the mes-
quite andall the other options.
Some prepackaged lunch
meats nowcome in thicker slic-
es, mirroringthe choice at a tra-
ditional deli. Herbs and spices
also are showing up in prepack-
aged products, boosting flavor
and appeal. And there are the
packages of sliced, dry-cured
meats, such as soppressata and
prosciutto, which used to be
strictly deli items.
Meanwhile, producers have
been cutting salt and removing
artificial ingredients in re-
sponse to customers requests
for a more natural product.
There are consumers out
there who are interested in
products that have ingredients
that are more familiar and rec-
ognizable, says Heather
Buettner, senior director of
new product development and
innovation at Oscar Mayer.
The new Oscar Mayer Se-
lects lunch meats follow last
years successful launch of Os-
car Mayer Select Hot Dogs, a
product that is among the tiny
0.5 percent of new products
launched in the past decade to
reach $100 million in their first
year, according to data from
Symphony IRI Group.
In addition to the hot dogs,
new Selects products include
five cold cuts and bacon. The
company also announced that
more than half of newproducts
launched in 2012 will have no
artificial preservatives. The
company has a goal of reducing
sodiumby 20 percent across all
products by the end of the year.
This is important to con-
sumers, and therefore its im-
portant to us, Buettner says.
Packaged lunch meat carves out a new niche
By MICHELLE LOCKE
For The Associated Press
I
should have known better. My cousins seemingly ca-
sual invitation was too intent on success, the gleamin
her eye a bit toobright. Take a bite, she said, holding
out the stalk of rhubarb.
She spoke as if she were postponing her own pleasure,
as if her bite of the scarlet stalk could wait if it meant her
own dear young cousin could be happy. The rhubarb
looked tasty. The pale green stalk looked like celery, but
better, with brilliant red striations. The bottom knob of
the stalk, where it had been pulled from the plant with a
firm tug, was pink and appeared as polished as marble.
But it was the other end, where the great leaf had been
lopped off by my beguiling cousin, that revealed the
stalks pale green interior. Take a bite, she said again.
I suspect we were not unobserved that the grownups
were looking out from the kitchen at the ancient drama
beingenacted. For surely, generationupongenerationhas
tempted its younger members with the suggestion that
biting into a stalk of rhubarb is a delight.
But to a childs untested tastebuds, rhubarb is a shock.
The initial crunch is quickly replaced by the sensation of
every pore in your mouth constricting in the face not so
By KIMODE Star Tribune (Minneapolis)
See RHUBARB, Page 2C
MCT PHOTOS
Rhubarb can be mixed with kale to make a confetti salad, as pic-
tured at top, or used to add flavor, such as the spiced rhubarb sauce
pictured above. The vegetables first use was as medicine in China
and Tibet, with records dating to 2700 B.C. European cooks were
intrigued enough by its tart flavor that they began growing it in
about 1600.

much of a taste that is sour
though your brain is screaming
Sour! as in the realization
that spitting out the rhubarb
risks releasing even more of its
barbarity. The good news is that
we know now that kids taste-
buds are especially sensitive to
bitter or sour flavors and that
maturity brings the joy of real-
izing that rhubarb is one of the
great delights of horticulture.
Rhubarbs first primary use
was not as food but as medicine
in China and Tibet, with records
dating to 2700 B.C. Its eventual
appearance in European coun-
tries was due to its medicinal
properties, but cooks also were
intrigued enough by its tart
flavor that they began growing
it in about 1600. Trade routes
continued to shrink the globe,
and by the late 1700s imported
sugar became plentiful and
affordable, which pretty much
lit the fuse on rhubarbs becom-
ing more commonly referred to
as pie plant.
While we tend to think of it as
a fruit, rhubarb actually is a
vegetable, which helps move
our brains in the direction of
using it in more savory dishes,
such as a Yorkshire-style pud-
ding side dish, or in a kale salad.
Nor is it necessary that rhubarb
desserts rely on strawberries.
Its far more interesting to pair
its tart flavor with tropical man-
goes, chewy figs, fresh rasp-
berries or ripe bananas.
Or, you can follow one of the
simplest recipes ever: Take one
small bowl of sugar into the
garden. Pull a stalk of rhubarb
from the plant. Lop off the leaf.
Dip one end of the stalk into the
sugar. Take a bite. Continue
dipping as desired. Serves 1.
YORKSHIRE RHUBARB
Serves: 6 to 8.
Note: My friend Cindy Jurgenson
lent me one of her old cookbooks
from the good cooks of Litchville,
N.D., which was full of rhubarb
recipes. Most were familiar, but one
was a variation on the savory
Yorkshire puddings served with
roast beef. If you dont have an
oven-safe pan, pour the bacon
renderings into a similarly sized
baking dish, then proceed with the
recipe as directed. . From Rhubarb
Renaissance, by Kim Ode (Minne-
sota Historical Society Press, 120
pages, $16.95).
2 eggs
3/4 cup milk
3/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. dried thyme, or 1 tsp.
fresh
2 slices bacon, cut in half-inch
pieces (see note)
1 1/2 cups rhubarb, cut in half-
inch pieces
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
Directions:
In a blender, combine eggs, milk,
flour, salt and thyme. Process until
smooth. Set aside for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Slowly fry bacon in a 10-inch oven-
safe pan (cast iron is ideal, but see
Note). Remove bacon from pan and
drain on paper towels. Reheat the
rendered bacon fat until sizzling,
then pour the batter into the pan.
Scatter rhubarb over the batter,
then sprinkle with brown sugar and
bacon.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until
crust is nicely browned. Cut in
wedges and serve alongside any
roasted meat or poultry.
CONFETTI SALAD
OF KALE AND RHUBARB
Serves: 6
Note: I love this salad. Its gor-
geous, but it also makes you feel
like a superhero with all of its
vitamins. Lacinato kale, a dark
green variety often called dinosaur
kale, provides the best color con-
trast for the ruby bits of rhubarb
and golden batons of cheese. The
liquid from the pickled rhubarb
helps make the vinaigrette. Pre-
pare the rhubarb at least three
hours before serving. From Rhu-
barb Renaissance, by Kim Ode
(Minnesota Historical Society
Press, 120 pages, $16.95).
For the pickled rhubarb:
1 cup rhubarb, cut in 1/4-inch
pieces
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup white balsamic vinegar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
For the salad:
1 bunch (12 to 15 leaves) lacinato
kale
3 tablespoons rhubarb pickling
liquid
3 tablespoons walnut oil
Hefty pinch salt
Several grinds pepper
4 oz aged Gouda, cut in fat
matchsticks (about 1 cup)
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup fresh bread crumbs, pref-
erably sourdough
1/2 cup candied walnuts, roughly
chopped
To make pickled rhubarb: Place
rhubarb in a shallow heat-proof
bowl. In a small saucepan, combine
sugar, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt
and mustard seeds, and bring to a
boil; cook until sugar dissolves.
Pour mixture over the rhubarb and
let sit at room temperature for at
least three hours before using. The
pickles flavor improves if refriger-
ated overnight. Any leftover pick-
ling liquid can be refrigerated for
future use.
To make salad: Remove center rib
from kale leaves, stack several
pieces, then slice crosswise into a
fine julienne. You should end up
with about 5 cups. Rinse kale and
pat dry between paper towels or
use a salad spinner. Whisk together
pickling liquid and walnut oil. Sea-
son with salt and pepper. Toss kale
with dressing, then gently fold in
the cheese and drained rhubarb.
Place in refrigerator for at least 30
minutes so the kale softens a bit; it
can chill for up to 3 hours.
Heat butter in a small saucepan
over medium heat, then add bread
crumbs, stirring to coat. Cook,
stirring, until crumbs are golden
and crisp. Set aside.
Before serving, toss salad again,
add bread crumbs and walnuts,
and toss once more.

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: Between
juggling the joys and
challenges of home
life and staying pro-
ductive at work, its
easy for women to
make quick decisions
now that could affect
their health later on, or to miss early
signs of medical problems altogether.
To help women take control of
their health, the U.S. Food and Drug
Administrations Office of Womens
Health and the General Services
Administrations Federal Citizen
Information Center have created the
free Healthy Womens Action Kit. It
contains tips that can help women of
every age. The topics include: buying
contact lenses online, mammograms,
hypertension, cholesterol, Pap tests,
menopause and hormones, and more.
Abby, thank you for sharing this
information kit with your readers,
and for faithfully introducing all of us
to ideas and information to help make
our lives better.
Marsha Henderson, FDA Assistant
Commissioner For Womens Health
Dear Marsha: Im glad to help get
the word out to my readers during
National Womens Health Week that
the information is available for them
at no cost.
Readers, among the topics Marsha
didnt mention that are also included
are a guide to help you quit smoking
and facts about tattoos, osteoporosis,
diabetes and health scams. The more
we know, the better we can protect
ourselves and the people we love.
The Healthy Womens Action Kits
are easy to order. All you have to do
is send your name and address to
Healthy Womens Action Kit, Pueblo,
CO 81009; go online to www.promo
tions.usa.gov/Dearabby.html; or
call (888)8-PUEBLO (thats (888)
878-3256) weekdays 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Eastern time. You can also read the
publications online in PDF format,
download them to your computer and
print them. Dont wait, because sup-
plies are limited.
Dear Abby: The man Im in love
with, Butch, is an alcoholic. He
refuses to get help and has become
verbally abusive. He got a DUI and
theres a warrant out for him because
he didnt follow through on his court
orders. I threw him out after he lost
his job.
Butch is homeless now and has
taken up with a homeless woman.
When hes sober hes a totally differ-
ent person, and thats the man Im in
love with. Im devastated by his ac-
tions and I want him back.
I am so co-dependent I cry daily
about this. I do go to meetings and
Im trying to move on, but I have no
friends and dont know where to start
to get a life. Butchs behavior is out of
control, and its only a matter of time
before he winds up in jail. Could you
please tell me what to do?
Lost in Love in Montana
Dear Lost In Love: Im sorry youre
hurting, but pleased to know you are
going to meetings. At some point
they will help you accept that as
much as you love the person Butch
was, for the sake of your health and
sanity you must let go and let God.
Your next step should be to give your-
self less time to brood. Fill your non-
working hours by volunteering at
a hospital, a library, a senior citizens
center. Thats where youll meet
worthwhile people and start building
friendships.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Women can start to take control of their health by learning all they can
To receive a collection of Abbys most memo-
rable and most frequently requested po-
ems and essays, send a business-sized, self-
addressed envelope, plus check or money
order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear
Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box 447, Mount Mor-
ris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Its only
fun to take tests when you think
you know the answers. With this
in mind, youre careful not to
challenge others in a way that
will make them feel bad.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Youre
trying to make peoples lives bet-
ter. Sometimes they cooperate;
other times they dont. You wont
take it personally. Being in the
right makes it easier for you to
keep your ego out of it.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Youll do
quite a lot on your own, but not
everything. Before you ask for
help, be sure you really need it.
Others will find it most satisfying
to help you.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your
positive thoughts are transmit-
ted to the universe. Youll see
evidence that your transmission
has been received in the beauti-
ful unfolding of your plans.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Youre not
a miniscule part of the cosmic
whole not according to the tril-
lions of microorganisms living
within you, and not to the ones
who love you. Youll get a sense
of your vital importance today.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You
made a deal with destiny, and
that deal is more negotiable
than you might think. Sit down
and have a talk with her in your
mind. Sure, she can be tough,
but shes not unreasonable.
Besides, destiny likes you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Sometimes you feel as though
no one is listening to you. That
will be remedied today, as the
influence you hold will be obvi-
ous. Your suggestions will be
taken; your orders, followed.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You
dont need a phone to connect
with the one you love. Even
when this person is at a great
distance, satellites and wires
are unnecessary because youre
telepathically connected.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Your habits change because your
environment has changed. Its a
result of having to adapt to the
way things currently are. Youll
like where the new habits lead.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your
thought process is like television.
You cant control the program-
ming, but you can choose what
youll watch. And if you choose
wrong, you can always change
the channel.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Emotions trigger your mind to
release chemicals in your body,
and every cell takes a bath in
those chemicals. This is yet
another reason why you should
do what makes you happy.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Youll weave a lineup of happy
thoughts into an overall positive
attitude. Who can resist your
very attractive and amenable
personality?
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (May 16).
Youll love the attention show-
ered on you over the next
six weeks. Also note that just
because something didnt work
out last year doesnt mean it
wont work out at all. In July, you
get a second chance and make
it work for you. A deal closes in
August. November and February
show domestic improvements.
Capricorn and Cancer people
adore you. Your lucky numbers
are: 30, 1, 24, 38 and 18.
