Israel braces for attacks after strikes

Israeli jets hit targets inside Syria, which issues threats along with patron Iran.

Ellen McCormick and her dog, Mack, 11, a black lab, and her parents golden retriever, Sadie, 3 1/2 years old.

BEIRUT Israel rushed to beef up its rocket defenses on its northern border Sunday to shield against possible retaliation after carrying out two airstrikes in

Syria over 48 hours an unprecedented escalation of Israeli involvement in the Syrian civil war. Syria and its patron Iran hinted at possible retribution, though the rhetoric in ofcial statements appeared relatively muted. Despite new concerns about a regional war, Israeli ofcials signaled they will keep trying to block what they see as an effort by Iran to send sophisticated

weapons to Lebanons Hezbollah militia ahead of a possible collapse of Syrian President Bashar Assads regime. Israel has repeatedly threatened to intervene in the Syrian civil war to stop the transfer of what it calls gamechanging weapons to Hezbollah, a Syrian-backed group that battled Israel to a stalemate during a month-long war in 2006. Since carrying out a lone airstrike

in January that reportedly destroyed a shipment of anti-aircraft missiles headed to Hezbollah, Israel had largely stayed on the sidelines. That changed over the weekend with a pair of airstrikes, including an attack near a sprawling military complex close to the Syrian capital of Damascus early Sunday that set off a series of powerful explosions.

Feds red tape too heavy for gym owner

Social Security Administration Security changes are blocking clients, dave Sommers says.

Area woman makes it her mission to reunite people with best four-footed friends.

Ellen McCormicks love for dogs began early. Her parents found a stray when her mother was pregnant with her, and Moocher the pooch immediately took to watching over baby Ellen. McCormick, now 32, recently took that love for mans best friend and o n T H E W E B converted www.facebook. it into a com/NEPAlostdog social networking website that reunites lost dogs with their owners. The Lost Dog Project, which McCormick began in August, surged with activity in March after a Husky named Blaze was lost and last spotted in Plains Township. The site currently has almost 2,500 followers and, at one point during Blazes adventure, had nearly 7,000 people sharing the dogs picture. Just last month, McCormicks site help reunite more than 40 dogs with their owners. Its nice to see how the community comes together, McCormick, originally of Forty Fort and who currently lives in Scranton, said. Its good to see so many good people working for a good cause.

PLAINS TWP. To hear Dave Sommers tell it, the government gives and the government taketh away and the government sometimes doesnt even recognize one of its own when doing the taking. With combed-back hair and beefed-up biceps betting a man who spent his adult life in the business of tness, former Navy man Sommers would love to show you his gym, but Sommers he can barely show you the building that houses it. He stands in the parking lot of a company near the Social Security Administration building on East Mountain Boulevard and points to a silver car in the SSA parking lot. Thats security. If you go in there, theyll be on you in a second, he said. Sommers said he has run Shape Up Fitness in the SSA building for 11 years. In fact, it was the building personnel who asked him to start a tness center. They supply the equipment and the room, he said. I supply insurance and pay any employees. Initially, Sommers said, SSA not only allowed people from outside the building to use the facility, the agency encouraged it. With that opportunity, he built his client list up to a peak

THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS WEEK

based on a book by the author of Bernice Bobs Her Hair, with an actor who starred in Critters 3, and directed by the guy who produced the novelty song Everybodys Free (To Wear Sunscreen), youd probably pass and go see Iron Man 3 again. But, if those same people also wrote a jazz era classic (F. Scott Fitzgerald), starred in Titanic and Inception (Leonardo DiCaprio), and directed the Oscar-nominated Moulin Rouge (Baz Luhrmann), you might reconsider. You may also want to see The Great Gatsby when it opens this Friday. >> ROBERT SHAW MAY DISAGREE: If sharks could talk, theyd probably say something like this, Swim! Swim! HUNGRY! Food! Food! Food! FISH! Eat! Eat! Nom! Nom! Nom! Hey, never saw that remora before. Swim! Swim! OK. Thats just silly. Its also not what Fintastic Friday: Giving Sharks A Voice is all about. Some nice scientists have designated May 10 as a day to remind people that sharks are not the feared predators we think, but are actually a threatened

species. >> PUTT PUTT: In 1912, some ne blokes in London got together, made a miniature golf course called Gofstacle and spent the day puttering around. That may not have been the worlds rst miniature golf course, but its the rst one to make the papers. A hundred years later, and minigolf courses have all sorts of funky designs from clown noses, windmills, dragons, loop-de-loops, you name it. Why is that important? Because Saturday is National Miniature Golf Day. Thats why. >> MOMMY TIME: Hey mom. Next Sunday, when you get back from being treated to dinner, and you put your feet up next to the beautiful ower bouquet your kids got you, and you watch as everyone else does housework for the day, you can thank a woman named Anna Jarvis for it all. Jarvis is the mother of Mothers Day. She rst came up with the idea in 1908 and by 1914 had successfully lobbied to make the holiday a national event. Nice lady, that Ms. Jarvis.

>> RIDING THE RAILS: They built it. So now, you get to come to it. The it would be the new and improved PNC Field, home of the RailRiders. And if you like baseball, THIS is the week for you. The Riders have a full week of wall-to-wall baseball planned weather permitting, of course. Indianapolis is in for a four-game series today to Thursday. And if luck holds, Pirates uber-prospect Gerrit Cole is scheduled to pitch Thursday. Then its the Gwinnett Braves turn to visit Moosic. Theyll be in town Friday through next Monday. >> PARTY LIKE ITS 1922: If you heard there was a lm

LEMON TWP.

HAZLETON U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta, R-Hazleton, is training once again to pitch in the annual Republicans vs. Democrats Congressional Baseball Game on June 13. Barletta, according to his communications director Tim Murtaugh, has been throwing in the bullpen for more than a week in preparation for the big game. Murtaugh should know

a little something about baseball his grandfather, Danny Murtaugh, managed the Pittsburgh Pirates in the 1960s, including during the dramatic World Series victory over the New York Yankees in 1960. He believes he can still gas it to up to 80 miles per hour, and can still snap off a curve or two, Murtaugh said of his boss. The proceeds of the event benet the Boys and Girls Clubs. The game will be played in Nationals Park, home of the National Leagues Washington Nationals. Murtaugh said that since

1909 the Congressional Baseball Game has been the only annual partisan showdown beloved by all and enjoyed by thousands. Republicans hold a 38-36-1 advantage in the 75-year-old series. On the website for the game, it states: Every year, with a few interruptions, Senate and House members of each party team up to settle scores and solidify friendships off the oor and on the eld. Members usually sport the uniform of their home states and districts, and although proportional

FRANKLIN TWP. The Franklin Township Fire Company held an open house on Sunday to showcase its new training facility upgrade. Maureen Oremus, rst assistant chief, said Sundays event gave the community a chance to see the new training facility and learn about what services are available there. It includes a 40-by 60-foot hall that seats more than 200, she said. It can be rented for weddings or other events. The company also plans to use it for

a wide range of training. Recently, 28 people attended a session on how to use breathing apparatus, she said. In the near future there will be vehicle rescue training, propane gas training and maze training in which reghters crawl through a dark building to rescue victims. Oremus said the company is in contact with local community colleges on a regular basis to keep up on the latest training for its staff and members of the community. Oremus and other ofcers also visit local elementary schools to highlight re safety. More than 600 children have been visited and comforted by knowing the company is there for their good, she said. We want to let our community and children know we are interested in their safety. Second Assistant Chief Doug Farr

applied for the state grant used to fund the upgrades. Oremus said the ladies auxiliary also contributed a large sum of money. With 11 active members and six junior members, the company serves more than 2,000 homes within a 16mile radius in the Back Mountain. It handled more than 130 calls last year and works cooperatively with nearby companies in an effort to promote re safety and serve the community needs according to its ofcers. Farr said the company was able to use the grant money to pay for the facility upgrade since its equipment is all paid off at this time. It currently has one tanker, a brush truck, one engine, and a mini pumper. In addition, the company

Senior Program wins award

The Senior Center Program, sponsored by the Area Agency on Aging for Luzerne and Wyoming counties and the Commission on Economic Opportunity, received a state award for excellence in nutrition for older Pennsylvanians. The state Department of Aging presented its Secretarys Award to the program at the 2013 Nutrition Conference in State College. The program provides congregate meals for 17 senior centers. It also provides frozen home-delivered meals, serving approximately 1,000 individuals on a weekly basis in these two counties.

WILKES-BARRE The Sisters of Mercy will receive the Mary Bevevino Community Service Award May 15 at the annual meeting of the Luzerne Foundation. The Sisters are truly amazing women, Charles Barber, president and CEO of The Luzerne Foundation, said. They do so many things in our community; probably more than we know. It is their calling, and it is a blessing for all of

us. Barber said the Sisters of Mercy has grown from its humble beginnings Barber in Hazleton in 1874 and Wilkes-Barre in 1875. The members of the order have spent their lives teaching and ministering in hospitals and parishes, touching the lives of thousands of people for several generations. Barber said many Pennsylvania miners owe their education and growth to the Sisters of Mercy. In fact, generations later, their families live, work and

thrive in the very areas settled by their forefathers with the dedicated help of the Sisters of Mercy, he said.

This is the sixth year the Crestwood team has competed in the Odyssey of the Mind competition. Members will be returning to the international nals as three-time defending state champions.

I now have friends from throughout the world that I talk to every day. According to the Odyssey of the Mind website, the program fosters creative thinking through open-ended problems that can be applied to real-life situations.

Utah cabin had uninvited guests - 60,000 bees

owners needed to occupy it while building another home nearby, they decided the beehive wasnt safe for their two children. A few bees had found their way inside the house, and the hive was just outside a window of a childrens bedroom. They didnt want to kill the honeybees, a species in decline that does yeomans work pollinating owers and crops. So they called Bachman, owner of Deseret Hive Supply, a hobbyist store that cant keep up with demand for honeybees. Bachman used a vacuum cleaner to suck the bees into a cage. It doesnt hurt them, he said. The job took six hours. At $100 an hour, the bill came to $600. The bees were expensive, said Paul Bertagnolli, the cabin owner. He was satised with the job. Utah calls itself the Beehive state, a symbol of industriousness. Whether this was Utahs largest beehive is unknown, but Bachman said it would rank high. Its the biggest one Ive ever seen, he said. Ive never seen one that big. He used smoke to pacify the bees, but Bachman said honey-

SALT LAKE CITY It was the biggest beehive that that Ogden beekeeper Vic Bachman has ever removed a dozen feet long, packed inside the eaves of a cabin in Ogden Valley. We gure we got 15 pounds of bees out of there, said Bachman, who said that converts to about 60,000 honeybees. Bachman was called to the Aframe cabin last month in Eden, Utah. Taking apart a panel that hid roof rafters, he had no idea he would nd honeycombs packed 12 feet long, 4 feet wide and 16 inches deep. The honeybees had been making the enclosed cavity their home since 1996, hardly bothering the homeowners. The cabin was rarely used, but when the

bees are gentle creatures unlike predatory yellow jackets or hornets, which attack, rip apart and eat honeybees, he said. They just want to collect nectar and come back to the hive, he said. Most people never get stung by honeybees its a yellow jacket.

representation is not required, elected ofcials of many states play to win every year. Over the last century the Congressional Baseball Games popularity has contributed to its evolution into a fundraiser for two worthy and effective DC area charities, The Washington Literacy Council, and The Boys and Girls Club of Greater Washington. Barletta, who was a pretty good baseball player back in the day, dreamed of going pro. His idol was Mickey Mantle and his favorite team was the Yankees. He played center eld like Mantle and taught himself to be a switch-hitter, also just like Mantle. Shortly after he was married, Barletta convinced his father that he should drop out of college and head to Tampa, Fla., to participate in a tryout camp. I was a lead-off hitter. I could bunt and steal bases. But I didnt make it, Barletta said in a 2007 story in The Times Leader, even though he could get from home plate to rst in 3.7 seconds. They found out I couldnt hit a curve ball. So I came back home and went to work for my dad in the construction business.

Uncle plans bomb suspects burial

Ruslan Tsarni says he understands no one wants to associate with such evil acts.

Pakistan women still struggle to vote Ruksana Ali, an activist from the Association for Gender Awareness & Human Empowerment, enlists names of women for the upcoming elections in Mateela village near Sargodha, Pakistan. The country is getting set to vote in the upcoming nationwide election that will see a transfer of power from one civilian government to the next, a rst for Pakistan.
SAN FRANCISCO

WORCESTER, Mass. The uncle of a Boston Marathon bombing suspect killed in a gun battle with police arrived at a funeral home Sunday to prepare his body for burial. Ruslan Tsarni of Montgomery Village, Md., and three other men met with Worcester funeral home director Peter Stefan. The men who accompanied Tsarni plan to wash and shroud the body of 26-year-old Tamerlan Tsarnaev according to Muslim tradition, the uncle said. Tsarnaev, who had appeared

in surveillance photos wearing a black cap and was identied as Suspect No. 1, died days after the April 15 bombing, which killed three people and injured more than 260 others. Tsarni told reporters that he is arranging for Tsarnaevs burial because religion and tradition call for his nephew to be buried. He said his friends came along to help him prepare Tsarnaevs body and he understands that no one wants to associate their names with such evil acts. Stefan said he has received calls from people criticizing him and calling him un-American for being willing to handle Tsarnaevs funeral. We take an oath to do this. Can I pick and choose? No. Can I separate the sins from the sinners? No, he said. We

are burying a dead body. Thats what we do. A half dozen protesters gathered outside the funeral home Sunday holding signs and American ags and chanting USA! One sign read: Do not bury him on U.S. soil. Several people drove by the funeral home earlier Sunday and yelled, including one man who shouted, Throw him off a boat like Osama bin Laden! Stefan said he hasnt been able to nd a cemetery in Massachusetts willing to take the body, but he has received offers to provide a grave and to contribute money toward the funeral expenses from people in other states. Stefan said he plans to ask the city of Cambridge, where Tsarnaev lived, to provide a burial plot, and if Cambridge turns him down,

he will seek help from state ofcials. Stefan said Tsarnaevs uncle told him he is anxious to bury

his nephew. They just want to get it over with. They want to get him buried, Stefan said.

BAGHDAD

A series of attacks including a blast near an Internet cafe in a Sunni area of Baghdad killed nine people and wounded dozens on Sunday in and around the Iraqi capital. The attacks came amid heightened sectarian tension following a deadly security crackdown on a camp in northern Iraq run by Sunnis, protesting what they consider to be their second-class treatment by the Shiite-led government. Government investigators say the April 23 incident left 40 people dead, while a spate of follow-up attacks and battles has killed well over 200 more. The bloodshed has raised fears that the country could be heading for a new wave of sectarian ghting like that which nearly pushed it to the brink of civil war in the middle of the last decade.

Niall Ferguson, a Harvard history professor and author, apologized on Saturday for saying economist John Maynard Keynes was less invested in the future because he was gay and had no children. Ferguson said his remarks at an earlier conference were as stupid as they were insensitive. During a question-and-answer session after a prepared speech at the Altegris Strategic Investment conference in Carlsbad, Calif. on Thursday, Ferguson was asked to comment about Keynes, an inuential 20thcentury British economist who advocated government spending as a way to make up for lagging demand in a down economy. Ferguson suggested that Keynes philosophy was shaped by his homosexuality. Keynes, therefore, had no children so he wasnt as invested in future generations as others might be, Ferguson said. On Saturday Ferguson acknowledged the remarks and said he deeply and unreservedly apologized. I should not have suggested - in an off-the-cuff response that was not part of my presentation - that Keynes was indifferent to the long run because he had no children, nor that he had no children because he was gay, he said in a statement in response to an e-mailed query. It is obvious that people who do not have children also care about future generations, he added.

April 24 disaster is likely the worst garment-factory accident ever; 149 are still listed as missing.
By FARID HOSSAIN Associated Press

Building-collapse toll tops 600

DHAKA, Bangladesh More than 600 bodies have been recovered from the garment-factory building that collapsed well over a week ago, police said Sunday as the grim recovery work continued in one of the worst industrial accidents ever. Police said Sunday night that the death toll had reached 622. Well over 200 bodies have been recovered since Wednesday, when authorities said only 149 people had been listed as missing. The stench of decomposing bodies remains amid the broken concrete of the eight-story Rana Plaza building, and it is anyones guess how many victims remain to be recovered. The April 24 disaster is likely the worst garment-factory accident ever, and there have been few industrial accidents of any kind with a higher death toll. It surpassed long-ago garmentindustry disasters such as New Yorks Triangle Shirtwaist factory re, which killed 146 workers in 1911, and more recent tragedies such as a 2012 re that killed about 260 people in Pakistan and one in Bangladesh that same year that killed 112. An architect whose rm designed the building said Sunday that it had not been designed to handle heavy industrial equipment, let alone the three oors that were later illegally added. The

A woman is comforted as she grieves after identifying the body of her daughter, a victim of the garment factory collapse in Savar, near Dhaka, Bangladesh. The death toll from the collapse continued its horrifying climb, with little sign of what the nal number will be.

equipment used by the ve garment factories that occupied Rana Plaza included huge generators that were turned on shortly before the building crumbled. Masood Reza, an architect with Vastukalpa Consultants, said the building was designed in 2004 as a shopping mall and not for any industrial purpose. We designed the building to have three stories for shops and another two for ofces. I dont know how the additional oors were added and how factories were allowed on the top oors, Reza said. Dont ask me anything else. This is now a sensitive issue, Reza said before hanging up. Government ofcials say substandard building materials, combined with the vibration of the heavy machines used by the factories, led to the collapse.

Obama dares graduates to reject cynical voices

Presidents commencemt speech urges vigorous participation in democracy.

Gerbils vie for crown

The American Gerbil Societys annual pageant brought dozens of rodents scurrying to New England this weekend for a chance to win top gerbil. The Bedford competition called for agility demonstrations in which the gerbils must overcome obstacles and race to the end of a course. Breeders of the small animals vie for coveted ribbons based on body type and agility.

COLUMBUS, Ohio A year to the day after kicking off his victorious re-election campaign on this college campus, President Barack Obama returned to Ohio State University and told graduates that only through vigorous participation in their democracy can they right an illfunctioning government and break through relentless cynicism about the nations future. I dare you, Class of 2013,

to do better. I dare you to do better, Obama said. In a sunbaked stadium lled with more than 57,000 students, friends and relatives, Obama lamented an American political system that gets consumed by small things and works for the benet of societys elite. He called graduates to duty to accomplish great things, like rebuilding a still-feeble economy and ghting poverty and climate change. Only you can ultimately break that cycle. Only you can make sure the democracy you inherit is as good as we know it can be, Obama told more than 10,000 cap-and-gown-

MURRAY, Utah A 46-yearold soccer referee who was punched by a teenage player during a game and later slipped into a coma has died, police said. Ricardo Portillo of Salt Lake City passed away at the hospital, where he was being treated following the assault last weekend, Unied police spokesman Justin Hoyal said Saturday night. Police have accused a 17-yearold player in a recreational soccer league of punching Portillo after the man called a foul on him and issued him a yellow card. The suspect was close to Portillo and punched him once in the face as a result of the call, Hoyal said in a press release. The teen, whose name hasnt been released because of his age, has been booked into juvenile detention on suspicion of aggravated assault. Hoyal said authorities will consider additional charges since Portillo has died. An autopsy is planned. No cause of death was released. Portillo suffered swelling in his brain and had been listed in critical condition, Dr. Shawn Smith said Thursday at the Intermountain Medical Center in the Salt Lake City suburb of Murray. The victims family, which publicly spoke of Portillos plight this past week, has asked for privacy, Hoyal said. Johana Portillo, 26, said last week that she wasnt at the April 27 game in the Salt Lake City suburb of Taylorsville, but she said shes been told by witnesses and detectives that the player hit her father in the side of the head. When he was writing down his notes, he just came out of nowhere and punched him, she said. Accounts from a police report, Portillos daughter and others offer more details about what occurred. The teenager was playing goalie during a game at Eisenhower Junior High School in Taylorsville when Portillo issued him a yellow card for pushing an opposing forward trying to score a goal. In soccer, a yellow card is given as a warning to a player for an egregious violation of the rules. The teenager, quite a bit heavier than Portillo, began arguing with the referee, then unleashed a punch to his face. Portillo seemed ne at rst, then asked to be held because he felt dizzy. He sat down and started vomiting blood, triggering his friend to call an ambulance.

. Gertrude Whitmire Stull, 88 years and 8 months of age, passed away on May 5, 2013, after living for three years at The Meadows Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Dallas, where she continued to enrich lives of those around her while vying with Parkinsons disease. Born and raised in Berwick, to the late John F. and Florence M. Taylor Whitmire, she graduated from the Berwick High School. She married Dean L. Stull and moved to Kingston, then to Forty Fort, where she lived and raised her family until Deans death in 1981. She lived in Luzerne and then Kingston until moving into The Meadows. Gertrude loved her family so much; she loved family gatherings, spending time with her grandchildren and presenting enormous and sumptuous holiday feasts with seasonally colored mashed potatoes. Oh, those leftovers! Gertrude worked in retail from the age of 16. She continued working retail for 35 years at Bergmans, a few years in the shoe department, and then in the cosmetic department. She then worked at Humphreys Bootery in Dallas for about 10 years. Gertrude had a tremendous sense in fashion and style and was labeled a fashionista wherever she went. She always remained current to style appropriate to age and wore scarfs and jewelry and shoes to match her outts. She loved jigsaw puzzles, cards, board games, word books and was a Yahtzee Champion extraordinaire. Gertrude was very giving and loving and was greatly loved by others. Her thumbs were both green, able to grow anything anywhere. She read the newspaper front to back every day, read novels and biographies, and recipes. Active in Al-Anon, she was able to gain tremendous insights and personal growth that enriched her life. She was quite active in the Eastern Star for many years. The Courtdale Methodist Church and its Womens Auxiliary were an integral part of her life the rummage sales, pillow cases lled with childrens gifts for Christmas, the dinners, and above

all, the dear friends she had and loved so much. Her soul and behavior were lled with kindness, love, gentleness and sacrice and generosity. The family would like to acknowledge and deeply thank her caregivers and all the staff at The Meadows for the last three years, and more recently The Hospice of the Sacred Heart. They all related to and treated her as though she were family. In addition to her parents and former husband, Gertrude was also preceded in death by her brother and sister-in-law, with whom she was very close, F. Leslie and Sara Acornly Whitmire of Berwick. Gertrude will be greatly and deeply missed by her children, Swan S. Stull and life partner Marty E. Gates, of Lewisburg Pa.; Lance E. Stull and his wife, Susan Cohen Stull, of Kingston, and their children, Sara C., of Portland, Ore.; Jonathan C., and Zachary C. of Kingston; Mark D. Stull and Lisa DiSano Stull of Dallas and their children, Sara A., Rachael K. and Isaiah M. of Dallas, and Rebecca M., of Philadelphia; Erick M. Stull and Korey Adelson and their daughter, Meia M., of Plymouth; and her loved and loving nieces, Judy Andres and her husband, Dale, of Nescopeck, and Sandy Slowick and her husband, Larry, of Berwick. Friends may call on Wednesday from 10 to 11 a.m. followed by a service to celebrate Gertrude and conducted by Pastor Ron Baker at The Courtdale Methodist Church, 225 Courtdale Ave., Courtdale. Private interment will be at the Berwick Cemetery. In lieu of owers, the family would like you to consider donating to The Courtdale Methodist Church Womens Auxiliary, The Meadows 4 East Center Hill Road, Dallas PA 18612, or The Hospice of the Sacred Heart, 600 Baltimore Drive, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18702.

WORLD OPINIONS

Joint military drill could backre on US and Seoul

against the United States. The show of strength, coupled with the political will, hasnt made any difference as far as the intentions of the communist state are concerned. This drives home the point that resorting to use of force or politics of coercion hasnt worked. Pyongyang is as dangerous as it was two months back. rather it has gone over the brink and has unleashed a new wave of terror in the region by loading its missiles and putting forces on high alert. The White House has to do something special and out of the box to overcome this mentality and make a serious endeavor to reach out to the regime in Pyongyang. The U.S. mindset that the drills were meant to defend its ally and buoy peace could backre if Pyongyang started reading too much between the lines. Operation foal eagle could turn foul for many of the eagles in Washington.
The Khaleej Times, Dubai

fTer An exhaustive military drill on the Korean Peninsula, called foal eagle, they perhaps have a reason to believe that jingoistic north Korea has been coerced and shall be exercising restraint. They are mistaken. The socalled uneasy detente prevailing in the Pacic rim is no criterion for lasting peace in the region. The joint military exercises that took place amid high tensions with north Korea has angered the Stalinist state, which has threatened to strike deep inside Japan and destinations across the Atlantic. The drills, which involved around 10,000 U.S. troops and South Korean counterparts, have provided an apt opportunity for Pyongyang to ex its muscles. The point is whats next for the duo that had, of late, also signed a new agreement stating any attack on Seoul would be tantamount to an aggression

Bunga Bunga bounces back

fTer HIS ignominious exit from ofce 18 months ago, it is hard to believe former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi is back with his hands on the levers of power in rome. But he is, and the hope must be that, despite the long shadow he casts, the countrys newly minted government will be able to act boldly to tackle what the Bank of Italy has declared the most acute crisis since World War II in the eurozones third-largest economy. Berlusconi is not a member of the new grand coalition of center-left and center-right parties. But his protege, Angelino Alfano, has been installed as deputy to the highly regarded new center-left Democratic Party Prime

ADL remains watchdog against bigotry, advocate for rights

THe AnTI-DefAMATIOn League is celebrating its centennial birthday. Born at the beginning of the twentieth century in a Chicago law ofce, ADL has worked tirelessly to be true to the stated raison detre of its founders, to stop, by appeals to reason and conscience, and if necessary by appeals to law, the defamation of the Jewish people and to secure justice and fair treatment to all citizens alike. even in 1913, the founders realized that the ght against one form of prejudice could not succeed without battling prejudice in all forms. This impressive group of community leaders recognized that prejudice is the child of ignorance. It knows no bounds, respects no individual, and violates the most sacred tenets of our democracy. In an effort to counteract the scourge of bigotry that permeated so many facets of American life, the Anti-Defamation League came into being. now, a century later, we look back and we look forward. One hundred years ago, the founding patrons of ADL audaciously imagined that we could put an end forever to unjust and unfair discrimination. no less bold is the theme of the Centennial celebration: to Imagine a World Without Hate. ADL has accomplished much. In its early years, it worked to counteract racist and anti-Semitic policies in education by ghting to eliminate quotas at universities. In the 1960s, ADL mobilized support for civil rights and voting rights legislation, and worked tirelessly for the passage of the Civil rights Act of 1964 and the fair Housing Act of 1968. It was among the rst to raise alarms about neo-nazism in the United States. In addition, ADL has spoken out against persecution of Japanese Americans,

Minister enrico Letta, while Berlusconi loyalists have been given major Cabinet posts. Berlusconi, in the words of a leading commentator, has the power to kill the government from one day to the next, and that is a measure of the remarkable comeback by the former prime minister despite the sex and corruption scandals that have engulfed him. Having Berlusconi breathing down his neck is going to make life difcult for Letta. But, as long as he can keep the former prime minister on side, he should be able to take the measures he believes will get Italy out of its crippling recession by generating more growth and creating jobs.

COMMENTARY

Jason Collins blazes a trail

T WAS only a matter of time before someone did it. And the rst gay athlete to come out, who is active in a major north American pro team sport, is hardly a household name. But none of that diminishes the impact of Jason Collins blunt announcement: I am a 34-year-old nBA center. Im black. And Im gay. Its certain hes not the only one. Thanks to Collins, it will be easier for the next national Basketball Association player, hockey star, baseball idol or football hero to tell the public he is gay. And as the pro sports locker room one of the last bastions of traditional macho attitudes becomes more welcoming, fans and players at every level and of all ages will be encouraged to tell the truth about who they are. Thats the real signicance of Collins revelation in Sports Illustrated this week. He writes that he didnt set out to be a trailblazer. If I had my way, someone else would have already done this. nobody has, which is why Im raising my hand. That took courage. Theres a reason that, over decades of ac-

tive professional play by thousands of north American athletes in the big four sports, not one stepped forward to declare hes gay. none was willing to risk a backlash in the club house and from a homophobic population that, to societys shame, represented a majority view. Times are changing. Gay marriage has become routine in Canada and is winning increasing acceptance in the United States. Gays and lesbians can now openly serve in the U.S. military and have been standard bearers of progress in all walks of life. even in sports there have been breakthroughs. Tennis legend Martina navratilova came out in 1981 and, just a few weeks ago, so did womens basketball star Brittney Griner. Just be who you are, was her advice. Thats signicant, to be sure. But to come out as Collins did in big league mens basketball, hockey, football or baseball represents a larger shift given the lightning rod prole of these sports and the traditional toughguy posturing of their athletes.

worked for equal protections and rights for LGBTQ individuals, and criticized antiIslamic fervor in the United States. no community is beyond the reach of ADL. It has worked to promote interfaith relations, while at the same time warning against programs that violate the separation of church and state. Since 1948, it has fought to promote better relations between Arabs and Jews, while remaining steadfast in its support of Israel and its right to defend itself. ADL instituted the rst independent fact-nding on extremists thereby creating a wealth of credible information uncovering hate groups in the U.S., and made its ndings available to the government and the press. As a result, the fBI and the media consistently turn to ADL for its expertise. In fact, ADL is currently the largest private provider of training for law enforcement on extremism and terrorist threats. ADL has also led numerous amicus briefs in the U.S. Supreme Court including one in Shelley v. Kraemer, in which the Court supported ADLs view that restrictive housing covenants were unconstitutional and unenforceable and one in Brown v. Board of Education, promoting desegregation of schools. ADL crafted anti-mask laws, which banned the wearing of masks during public demonstrations and produced a dramatic decrease in the membership of the Ku Klux Klan. More recently, ADL launched the A WOrLD Of DIfferenCe Institute for anti-bias training, the Confronting AntiSemitism program to help communities respond to incidents of hate and the no

Place for Hate initiative to counteract bullying and promote understanding and diversity in schools. This May, ADL will host its third annual WALK Against Hate. This event truly embodies the founding mission of ADL by celebrating diversity and promoting community awareness about hate. Many challenges remain in an ever changing and increasingly diverse world. The Internet offers great opportunity to expand awareness and education, but, it also is a vehicle for spreading vile images of minorities and disseminating attitudes of intolerance to the point of inciting violence. While anti-Semitism has decreased in the United States it grows stronger in many other countries. Bullying and cyberbullying are growing problems in schools and affect many students every day. There is yet to exist comprehensive and reasonable immigration reform, and immigrants are often used as scapegoats for American problems. There is certainly work to be done, and ADL enters the next century with experience and renewed passion. In 1882, in his seminal work, AutoEmancipation, Leon Pinsker wrote that prejudice or instinctive ill-will is not moved by rational argument, however forceful and clear. While we may agree that it is unlikely that hatred will be eradicated from this earth, ADL remains both a watchdog against bigotry and an advocate of human rights and civil liberties. Through all of its activities and programs, in the United States and throughout the world, ADL will continue to Imagine a World Without Hate.

Are states nursing homes delivering the best care? aking the decision to move a loved one M into a nursing home is never easy. In fact, its usually agonizing. When our loved

So we do our homework, and we try to make the best decision with the information we have at hand. And we pray that once theyre settled and the doors close at night, itll be all right.

short-staffed, especially on nights and weekends when they ran with a skeleton crew. Many seniors had to sit in soiled clothes, eat cold meals, and sit pain for hours because there simply werent enough hands on deck to care for them. It was not uncommon to see one aide helping seven or eight seniors eat at once, some of them blind, others barely able to chew. Many aides worked a second job to make ends

meet. This is not the picture of what should be happening inside the walls of Pennsylvanias nursing homes. An industry that made more than $500 million in prot in 2011 should be investing in better care and not forcing caregivers to work two jobs to make ends meet. Thankfully, members of the Legislature are taking a stand. Senators Sean Wiley and Matt Smith will soon introduce Senate Bills 624, 625 and 626 to improve quality, stafng and accountability. These long-overdue measures will allow our loved ones to live with dignity, and give those who care for them the tools and time they need to provide the best care. We all have a responsibility to protect our seniors, and enacting these important measures is a good place to start.

But something changed dramatically that he contends will likely put him out of business. Sommers received a letter from SSA dated March 5 noting that non-federal employees or non-federal contractors are no longer permitted to use his tness center for security and liability concerns. Sommers said that almost as soon as he posted the notice, as he was required to, customers started dropping off. It decimated my business immediately, Sommers said, adding that his customer count slid to about 150. They knew they would have to nd another place, and I cant blame them. Yet the new security rules do not apply to a day-care center in the building, Sommers said. They said the day care has a separate outside entrance, so its secure. But he argues his clients have to pass two guards and screening equipment to get into the section of the building housing his gym, and once they are there they have no access to other parts of the building. But the day care has only one guard and no screening equipment, and those who enter theoretically have access to other parts of the building. Children go in with book bags and stuffed animals and no X-ray machines, Sommers said, I hate to use the word, but if anyone would look at these two

business and think the day care is more secure, they would be a moron. There is also a federal credit union in the building which, Sommers said, has also fallen under the new security rules and cannot serve customers who do not work in the building. Looking for help, or at least some answers, Sommers contacted U.S. Rep. Matt Cartwright, D-Moosic. Sommers said a representative from Cartwrights ofce came to check the place out and see if it was the way I said, but the guards wouldnt let him in, even after showing credentials. Cartwrights spokesman, Shane Seaver, conrmed that the representative was looking into the matter but had no other comment.

An email to the Social Security press ofce in Baltimore prompted the following written response from William Jarrett: Its non-Federal employees and non-Federal contractors who are no longer permitted to use the Wilkes-Barre Data Operations Center (WBDOC) Fitness Center. The decision was made due to security concerns and only credentialed individuals should be permitted access. The tness center, as well as the credit union, is inside the secure area. As for the day care center, the main entrance is separate from the secure, WBDOC section of the facility. For the former sailor who worked in crash and salvage on the U.S.S. Dwight D. Eisenhower aircraft carrier, the response is McCormick began searching for Blaze in Plains Township where he had been spotted asking businesses if theyd seen him, seeking out help from a mailman and walking miles in search of him. I didnt even know (Blazes) owners, but I knew I had to reunite them, she said. Blaze was ultimately found in Plymouth and reunited with his owner, Bianca Jancewicz, of Forty Fort. Without (McCormicks) page we never would have found Blaze, Jancewicz said. The amount of people that reached out and wanted to help was incredible. Literally hundreds of people called and texted me asking how and where they can look for Blaze because they saw it on the (Lost Dog Project). I cant thank Ellen and all the volunteers enough for their amazing help and support, Jancewicz said. It was the greatest day, McCormick recalled of when Blaze was found and taken home. I kept getting calls and texts everyone knew Blaze was missing and everyone was watching for him. McCormick, who uses Blazes photo as the Lost Dog Projects poster child, jokes that Blaze will never get lost again - everyone in Luzerne and Lackawanna counties will recognize him. His picture was shared about 7,000 times during the time he was missing.

Social Security response

not much of an answer. He fears that, once limited to people who work in the building, hell probably have only about 80 clients. You certainly couldnt run a business, he said. And the prospect of relocating or otherwise re-establishing himself seems daunting. I started this business when I was 41 years old. Im 52, and at 52 its a lot harder to reinvent yourself again, and this business is tough. In fact, he suspects he got the opportunity to run the gym in part because his Navy background meant he could be trusted. The ironic thing is I thought I was getting into the business because of security, Sommers said. And thats whats killing my business. web page www.nepalostdog. com and hopes to get the word out to as many people as she can about the page. She also hopes to eventually make the Lost Dog Project a non-prot organization, but is far away from making that a reality. We have about a 90 percent success rate, McCormick said. The hardest part is keeping up with the page. We get so many photos. About 30 dogs were reunited with owners in March with the pages help. McCormick typically posts photos of dogs missing in Luzerne and Lackawanna counties. Users post photos of dogs they see or own that are lost, and other users can share them. Photos then gets posted on the users own Facebook pages, where their list of friends can see the photos. McCormick said her goal is to reunite every dog with their owner one way or another. I just want (the owners) to have closure, she said. I always try to tell them to stay positive (when their dog is lost). No news is good news. McCormick said timing is everything when searching for a dog and posting their photo while hoping it reaches as many people as it can. Ive gotten to know dogs just from talking with their owners, and Ive made a lot of good friends, she said. Ive gotten amazing support and Im so thankful.

cial networking page in August while volunteering at the Grifn Pond Animal Shelter in Clarks Summit. During her 45-minute drive to and from the shelter, McCormick began to spot stray dogs on the road, in neighborhoods and saw dozens come in and out of the shelter. I started realizing just how many lost dogs there were. I knew I had to do something. I knew I had to help, she said. McCormick, who owns a black lab/chow mix named Mack, said if she saw a dog walking along the side of a road including the interstate shed pull over to try to get them, not even thinking about her own safety.

You could just tell they were lost. And so, the Lost Dog Project was born and people began posting, sharing and liking McCormicks page. Before McCormick started the Facebook page, she would get photos of missing dogs from people and hang them up in her room. It looked like a police crime room, where they have all the

Sunset Today 8:06 p.m.

The Israeli government and military refused to comment. But a senior Israeli ofcial said both airstrikes targeted shipments of Fateh-110 missiles bound for Hezbollah. The Iranian-made guided missiles can y deep into Israel and deliver powerful half-ton bombs with pinpoint accuracy. The ofcial spoke on condition of anonymity because he was discussing a covert military operation. Syrias government called the attacks a agrant violation of international law that has made the Middle East more dangerous. It also claimed the Israeli strikes proved the Jewish states links to rebel groups trying to overthrow Assads regime. Syrias information minister, Omran al-Zoubi, reading a Cabinet statement after an emergency government meeting, said Syria has the right and duty to defend its people by all available means. Israeli defense ofcials believe Assad has little desire to open a new front with Israel when he is preoccupied with the survival of his regime. More than 70,000 people have been killed since the uprising against Assad erupted in March 2011, and Israeli ofcials believe it is only a matter of time before Assad is toppled. Still, Israel seemed to be taking the Syrian threats seriously. Israels military deployed two batteries of its Iron Dome rocket defense system to the north of the country Sunday. It described the move as part of ongoing situational assessments. Israel says the Iron Dome shot down hundreds of incoming short-range rockets during eight days of ghting against Hamas militants in the Gaza Strip last November. Hezbollah red some 4,000 rockets into Israel during the 2006 war, and Israel believes the group now possesses tens of thousands of rockets and missiles. The Iron Dome deployment followed a surprise Israeli drill last week in which several thousand reservists simulated conict in the north. In another possible sign of concern, Israel closed the airspace over northern Israel to civilian ights on Sunday and tightened security

at embassies overseas, Israeli media reported. Israeli ofcials would not conrm either measure. Reecting fears of ordinary Israelis, the countrys postal service, which helps distribute government-issue gas masks, said demand jumped to four times the normal level Sunday. Israels deputy defense minister, Danny Danon, would neither conrm nor deny the airstrikes. He said, however, that Israel is guarding its interests and will continue to do so in the future. Israel cannot allow weapons, dangerous weapons, to get into the hands of terror organizations, he told Army Radio. Israeli defense ofcials have identied several strategic weapons that they say cannot be allowed to reach Hezbollah. They include Syrian chemical weapons, the Iranian Fateh110s, long-range Scud missiles, Yakhont missiles capable of attacking naval ships from the coast, and Russian SA-17 anti-aircraft missiles. Israels airstrike in January destroyed a shipment of SA-17s meant for Hezbollah, according to U.S. ofcials. Israeli ofcials said Sunday they believe that Iran is stepping up its efforts to smuggle weapons through Syria to Hezbollah because of concerns that Assads days are numbered. They said the Fateh-110s reached Syria last week. Fridays airstrike struck a site at the Damascus airport where the missiles were being stored, while the second series of airstrikes early Sunday targeted the remnants of the shipment, which had been moved to three nearby locations, the ofcials said. None of the Iranian missiles are believed to have reached Lebanon, said the ofcials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were discussing a classied intelligence assessment. The attacks pose a dilemma for the embattled Assad regime. If it fails to respond, it looks weak and opens the door to more airstrikes. But any military retaliation against Israel would risk dragging the Jewish state and its powerful army into a broader conict. With few exceptions, Israel and Syria have not engaged in direct ghting in roughly 40 years.

Scranton native helped salvage lost season for Brooklyn after Avery Johnson was dismissed.

Carlesimo red as nets coach after playoff ouster

they were eliminated in the rst round. Carlesimo helped the Nets nish 49-33 after replacing the red Avery Johnson in December, earning the No. 4 seed in the Eastern Conference. But they spotted the Chicago Bulls a 17-point halftime lead and lost 99-93 at home Saturday night in Game 7. General manager Billy King received a recent contract extension, but the Nets quickly decided they wanted someone new on the bench, even after Carlesimo went 35-19 on an interim basis. The Nets were one of the NBAs busiest teams last summer. They re-signed starters Deron Williams, Brook Lopez and Gerald Wallace and traded for Atlanta Hawks All-Star Joe Johnson in hopes of being a contender in their rst season in Brooklyn after they were longtime losers in New Jersey. They got back to the playoffs for the rst time since 2007, but expectations were higher, with owner Mikhail Prokhorov saying in the preseason that he thought the Nets could make the con-

NEW YORK After spending $350 million to upgrade their roster last summer, the Brooklyn Nets will start this offseason by looking for a coach. The Nets announced Sunday that P.J. Carlesimo wouldnt return, hours after

ference nals. In one sense, I will say how far weve come from last year, innitely. But we didnt get as far as we wanted to get, Carlesimo said Saturday night. I think we made enormous progress from where we were last year and what these guys accomplished this year, but to me its a hill. Youre always trying to climb up the hill. You go up; you go back. But we thought we could get higher up the hill than we got. More NBA, Page 4B

Kunitzs 2nd PP goal lifts Pittsburgh over Islanders

By IRA PODELL AP Sports Writer

Powerful in overtime

n h l p l aY o f f s

UNIONDALE, N.Y. The Pittsburgh Penguins bounced back from their home disappointment and dished out their fair share to the suddenly shocked New York Islanders. All it took was Sidney Crosby and a very powerful power play to do the trick. Chris Kunitz scored his second man-advantage goal of the game 8:44 into overtime, off PENGUINS the third assist of the day by Crosby, and the Penguins rode a slew of ISLANDERS ups and downs Sunday en route to a 5-4 victory over the Islanders that gave top-seeded Pittsburgh a 2-1 lead in the rst-round playoff series. The Islanders came in still enjoying the positive effects of their 4-3 comeback win on Friday in Pittsburgh that gave them a surprising split of the rst two games of the Eastern Conference series. The Penguins will try to take a commanding 3-1 lead Tuesday on Long Island. Crosby, playing his second game after missing a month because of a broken jaw, drew the decisive penalty against Brian Strait, who held the Penguins captain as he drove the net 33 seconds before the winning goal.

After missing Thursdays game, the goaltender was ready for practice Sunday.

He kind of wrapped me up, Crosby said. I pulled up looking for someone. I didnt see anyone so I thought I would take it to the net. We were hoping we could get it done quickly. The Penguins went 3-for-5 on the power play and yielded Kyle Okposos shorthanded goal, but held New York scoreless on its three advantages.

We had our chances. They scored on the power plays and we didnt, said Islanders coach Jack Capuano, who declined to comment on the ofciating. You always talk about special teams being a big factor, and that was the difference. When New York scored twice in the rst 5:41 to go up 2-0 in Game 3, old Nassau Coliseum rocked as it did in the

Stanley Cup-winning days of the early 1980s. However, this was the Islanders rst home playoff game since 2007, and the fans were soaking it all in. Not so fast. The Penguins stormed back with a pair of power-play goals 19 seconds apart rst by Jarome Iginla on a 5-on3 advantage, and then by Kunitz on the

LOUISVILLE, Ky. Now that Shug McGaughey has won the Kentucky Derby, its time for the 62-year-old trainer to go after another race missing from his Hall of Fame resume. Orb will follow up his win at Churchill Downs by running in the Preakness on May 18, giving the colt a shot at the Triple Crown. Orb arrived back at his home base in New York on Sunday, as did McGaughey and jockey Joel Rosario. The trainer was still absorbing what happened a day earlier. The colt extended

his winning streak to ve races, splashing through the slop to win the Derby by 2 lengths, giving McGaughey and Rosario their rst Derby wins. Orb rallied from 17th and made a sweeping move on the turn for home to win. It did not matter if it was wet or dry, the best horse won, rival trainer D. Wayne Lukas said McGaughey has never won the Preakness in two previous attempts. He hasnt had a horse in the race since 1989, when Easy Goer nished second to Sunday Silence, duplicating

Wasnetsky triumphs at Blossom run

WILKES-BARRE Chris Wasnetsky and Deedra Porrio ran to easy wins in the Cherry Blossom 5 Mile Foot Race on Sunday in Kirby Park. Wasnetsky, 24, of Dunmore, broke the tape in 26 minutes and 52 seconds, 1:20 shy of his own course record that he set two years ago. The former standout runner from Bishop OHara High School and the University of Scranton outdistanced secondplace nisher, Sean Robbins, 43, of Shavertown (the areas top male triatlete) by 1:39. Alex Zubko, 18, of Dallas, nished third, 10 seconds behind Robbins. I ran with somebody for the rst mile, Wasnetsky said. Then I pulled away. Once I pulled ahead, I settled into a good pace. I didnt want to push too hard. Thats because Wasnetsky was running in his rst race following a year layoff. It was a good day to run (weather wise), Wasnetsky said. It would have been even better had the race started an hour earlier (the race started at 10 a.m.). It got a little hot towards the end of the race. And that made the hills although they (dike) arent really hills a little tough. Ive been training on the track since February. So hills are a bit tough for me right now. Porrio, 36, of West Pittston, had been a little disappointed in her running so far this season, especially in shorter distance races (shes been running in quite a few longer distance events). But she was happy with her ninth-overall nish in 32:19 that gave her the win. Porrio, who dominated the female divisions of most area races last year, outran secondplace nisher, Whitney Lukas, 20, of Courtdale, by 1:36. Patricia Buzinkai, 33, of Kingston, nished third in 35:08. I led the entire way, Porrio said. I felt really good today. I

Divisional titles still up for grabs

Ron Rawls leads the runners off for the start of the Wyoming Valley Striders 39th annual Cherry Blossom 5-mile race held at Kirby Park on Sunday morning.

Thomas scholarships

wasnt challenged by another female throughout the race. I could see, at the turnaround, that (Lukas) was at least a minute behind me. So I just settled into a nice, even pace the rest of the way. In 2004, race ofcials from the Wyoming Valley Striders running club added Tim Thomas Memorial to the Cherry Blossom 5 Mile Foot Race name in memory of Thomas, who was a standout runner from Plains Township and ran for Bloomsburg University. He died at age 31. Each year Thomas widow, Kim, contacts all of the Wyoming Valley Conference guidance counselors with the criteria for entering a scholarship contest in Tims name. The contest is for high school seniors who plan to run at the college level. Each contestant is asked to write Kim a letter explaining what running means to them. Kim then picks two winners (one boy and one girl) from the letters that impress her the most. Both winners then receive a $500 scholarship. This years winners are Will Butkiewicz of Wyoming Valley West, who will attend the University of Pennsylvania, and Kylee McGrane of Coughlin, who will attend the College of Mount St. Vincent in New York.

Runners take off Sunday morning for the Wyoming Valley Striders 39th annual Cherry Blossom 5-miler at Kirby Park.

Butkiewicz wrote about how having a passion for the sport the extra effort on the part of the coaches and fellow runners makes running extra special. I have learned that passion is required to make actions authentic, he said. Butkiewicz also expanded on getting use to the daily routine of training and how he learned to love it. McGrane wrote about how her father, Paul, is her coach. And how he instilled in her a love for the sport. Without my father, my coach, I wouldve never fallen in love with track and eld, McGrane said. Without my father, my coach, I never would have believed that my dream of being on the podium wouldve been possible. My dad is my track coach. Without track and eld, my father and I wouldnt be as close as we are.

It seemed just a short time ago that fans were bundled in blankets or winter coats watching the rst week of Wyoming Valley Conference softball. Things have changed quickly. The weather is nice and the nal full week of the season starts today. Its own by so rapidly that we need to catch up on the divisional playoff races. Heres a look at the three heading into the week. Division 1: Hazleton Area (11-1) and Nanticoke (9-3) are the only teams in contention. They play at 11 a.m. Saturday at Nanticoke, but whether that game decides the title or will be a tune-up for the District 2 playoffs will be determined this week. Hazleton Areas magic number is two, meaning any combination of Hazleton Area wins and Nanticoke losses equaling two will give the Cougars the championship. Hazleton Area is home versus Pittston Area (2-10) today and Crestwood (4-7) on Thursday. The Cougars handled both easily the rst time around, winning 12-1 and 7-1. Nanticoke hosts Wyoming Valley West (5-7) on Tuesday and Coughlin (4-8) on Thursday. The Trojanettes defeated both previously. Division 2: Its a three-horse race between Berwick (9-2), Tunkhannock (8-3) and Wyoming Area (8-4). The key game is Thursday when Berwick visits Tunkhannock. Thats provided Tunkhannock gets past Lake-Lehman (0-12) on Wednesday. Tunkhannock coach John Keefe voiced his concerns about Lehman last week. As ridiculous as that sounds, consider Lehman has lost three one-run games, another in extra innings and has a pair of 2-0 losses to Tunkhannock and Berwick. So a Tunkhannock victory isnt a given. After the Tunkhannock

game, Berwick nishes up next week with two road games at Wyoming Area on May 13 and at Crestwood (4-7) on May 15. Tunkhannock ends its regular season against visiting Dallas (4-7) on May 13. Wyoming Area needs plenty of help to get the division. The Warriors play Tuesday at Dallas, which defeated them 5-2 on April 8. Division 3: Holy Redeemer (8-0), Hanover Area (9-1) and Northwest (7-2) are vying for the title. The division will essentially come down to Tuesdays Hanover Area at Redeemer game, which starts at 4 p.m. Redeemer, which defeated Hanover Area 8-1 on April 15, would all but clinch the division with a victory. The Royals would go up two games in the loss column and would have to lose at least two of their nal three for either Hanover Area or Northwest to have a chance. The Royals have defeated their nal three opponents this season by a combined 40-9 score. Northwest needs to sweep its nal three and have Hanover Area win on Tuesday to have any shot.

has singled out his three seniors Benjamin, Allie Matulewski and Kayley Schinski as the three players who have been the glue to an otherwise young team.

Grand time

District dates set

As best as we can tell, there have been two grand slams this season. Holy Redeemers Audrey Zavada had one in a victory over Northwest on April 24. Northwests Olivia McCorkel did the same against Meyers on April 9.

Schedule change

True grit

The Tunkhannock at LakeLehman game scheduled for today has been moved to Wednesday. Some Lehman players are unavailable today due to a senior eld trip. I love catchers. I was one and my son catches in Little League. So I can appreciate what Nanticokes Kayla Benjamin did last week. Benjamin took a nasty foul ball off her hand last Monday against Berwick. The direct hit sounded like someone throwing a raw porterhouse steak to the oor. She had to leave the game, but after some ice and a days rest she was good to go. Two days after the injury, Benjamin had two hits against Pittston Area. Then last Friday, she was 3-for-4 with four runs scored against Crestwood. First-year coach Ryan Stetz

ZATKOFF
Continued from Page 1B

He was sick, Hynes said after practice. Hes ne now. Back to normal. Normalcy wasnt the case in the hours leading up to Thursdays game, however. Zatkoff said he started feeling sick around 4 p.m. on Wednesday. He took some medicine and attempted to sleep it off while the team monitored the situation closely. At the same time, Thiessen said he had inkling there might be a chance he would start Game 3. That came to fruition at 2 p.m. on Thursday ve hours before game time, when Hynes called Thiessen to let him know he would start in place of Zatkoff. Thiessen went on to stop 19of-21 shots for his 13th career postseason win, and he was a big reason why Zatkoff decided not to push through his sickness and play. I tried to battle through it, but there comes a point where you just know physically that if you go out there youre not going to give your team the best chance to win, Zatkoff said.

The Penguins practiced for about an hour at the arena on Sunday before going through off-ice workouts. Aside from Zatkoffs illness, the team has stayed injury-free down the stretch and into the playoffs. Hynes attributed the run of health to depth and training. By having plenty of players that can suit up any night, Hynes has been able to give some of his regulars a night off, a move that has prevented the typical bumps and bruises from turning into something worse. We havent had to put guys out there if its a 50-50 situation, he said. They get the benet of extra rest, and guys can heal quicker, things stay minor and get better over the course of time. The other factor behind staying health is a reection of the job that strength and conditioning coach Joe Lorincz has been doing to keep the players in shape. Hynes credited Lorincz with an off-ice training program that the team goes through twice a week all season. That takes away those pulls

Notes

When you have a guy like Brad right there, it doesnt make sense for me to play when hes ready to go. It was just something I had to get out of my system and Im ne now. With us winning, it was big to get those extra couple of days off.

As the team wrapped up practice on Sunday, their opponent for the next round still wasnt determined. If Hershey defeats Providence on Wednesday night, then the Penguins would face the Syracuse Crunch. If Providence wins the series, then the Bruins would be the next opponent. Were fortunate to end our series early and its given us some time to relax and focus on our game, Hynes said. As the week goes on and we know who we will play, then well turn our attention to more game plan specics. The postseason schedule has been kind to the Penguins so far. They had Friday and Saturday off and will have a full week of practice before the second round. Captain Joey Mormina said this isnt usual during the playoffs. Its pretty rare the way the schedule has been this year with the huge gaps. We just have to do a good job managing our time, enjoy time with our families and recharge, he said. Its just a matter of us ne-tuning our game and making sure our conditioning level doesnt drop off this week.

Up in the air

and strains because youre t and strong all year. It also helps to recover from injuries quicker because your bodys stronger and not broken down, Hynes said. Theres things you cant help, such as breaks. But Joe does a great job and we very rarely get strains and pulls.

Adams had a triple to rightcenter in the sixth to score Bobby Wilson and Joseph (both reached on singles) to extend the lead to 5-0. Starter Dellin Betances (22) tossed ve hitless innings, walking four and fanning three. The Braves ended the no-hit bid in the seventh with a oneout single by Joe Leonard off of reliever Sam Demel. Leonard scored the Braves lone run.

Chris Bootcheck (4-0) stied Gwinnett batters in game two, limiting the Braves to just one run on four hits. Despite the solid effort, his International League best earned run average rose to 0.60. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre went out in front early in game two with a run in the second. With one out, Ronnier Mustelier walked, and moved to third on Melky Mesas double. Luke Murton then followed with a groundout that scored Mustelier. The Braves evened the score off Bootcheck in the fth. With one out, Matt Kennelly reached on a bunt single up the third

The game did not remain tied for long, as Mustelier hit the go-ahead home run in the sixth inning. His rst homer of the season cleared the left eld wall, giving the RailRiders the 2-1 lead. Jim Miller worked a scoreless seventh inning for the RailRiders to earn his second save of the season.

rookie shocks eld at Quail Hollow

Berwick edges Dallas in softball showdown

CHARLOTTE, N.C. A week like no other at Quail Hollow held one nal surprise Sunday when 22-year-old rookie Derek Ernst birdied the 18th hole to force a playoff, and then won the Wells Fargo Championship on the rst extra hole against David Lynn of England. Ernst was playing only his ninth PGA Tour event. He was the fourth alternate at the start of the week. He was No. 1,207 in the world ranking. None of that mattered when he choked up on a 6-iron from 192 yards and drilled his shot into 4 feet. He made one of only four birdies on the 18th in the nal round, and this was the most important. It gave him a 2-under 70 and put him in a playoff with Lynn, who also shot 70. The shot was no uke. On the 18th hole in the playoff, as the cold rain started coming down harder, Ernst hit a 3-iron left of the ag to 15 feet. Lynn went from the bank of a creek to the bunker to the rough behind the green, and Ernst was able to win with a par. Phil Mickelson, who had a one-shot lead with three holes to play, made bogeys on the

Kingsmill Championship

16th and 17th holes, and he narrowly missed a 20-foot birdie putt on the 18th that would have allowed him to join the playoff. He had a 73 and nished third. Ernst won just over $1.2 million and most important to him was the two-year exemption that comes with winning. WILLIAMSBURG, Va. Cristie Kerr made a short par putt on the second hole of a sudden-death playoff with Suzann Pettersen to win the Kingsmill Championship for the third time. The victory was the 16th of Kerrs career, and her third in ve career playoffs. She also won at the River Course in 2005 and 2009. Kerr shot a 2-under 69, and Pettersen had a 67 to nish at 12-under 272 on the River Course. THE WOODLANDS, Texas Esteban Toledo celebrated Cinco de Mayo by becoming the rst Mexican winner in Champions Tour history, beating Mike Goodes with a par on the third hole of a playoff in the Insperity Championship.

ragan nabs last-lap victory at talladega

Insperity Championship

TALLADEGA, Ala. Rain and wrecks pushed NASCAR to the edge of darkness Sunday at Talladega Superspeedway, where three of the biggest names in the sport led the eld to nal ag. NASCAR was giving it one nal go to get the rain-delayed race wrapped up, and Matt Kenseth, Carl Edwards and Jimmie Johnson were at the head of the pack for the two-lap overtime sprint to the nish. None of them ever saw David Ragan coming. Heck, Ragan barely even saw teammate David Gilliland hook onto his rear bumper. But Gilliland locked up with Ragan for that last-gasp push to the nish and the Front Row Motorsports drivers sliced their way to the front and put Ragan into Victory Lane for the tiny organizations rst victory. This is a true David versus Goliath moment here, Ragan said. It was the second career victory for Ragan he also won at Daytona in July 2011 when he drove for Roush Fenway Racing and Gilliland nished second for a 1-2 nish for Front Row Motorsports. I wouldnt want to line up and have to do it again, said Ra-

gan, who didnt realize Gilliland was pushing him until he exited Turn 2 on the last lap. That gave me a little extra condence that I could make the right moves and I knew that he was going to stick with me. I had a great teammate. David Gilliland gave us a great push. I owe him a lot. Ill denitely buy him lunch this week or something. The victory came a day after Regan Smith won the Nationwide Series race and Ragan was ooded with misred congratulatory messages on Twitter. All fans- please send all congrats to (at)ReganSmith. Not this Ragan.. He is the Winner today!! Haha, he tweeted Saturday night. Now Ragan has his own win just in time to qualify for the Sprint All-Star race in two weeks. Gilliland wanted the win but was content settling for second on a day his team earned its rst victory. What a great day for Front Row Motorsports, an underfunded team coming in here and being able to nish 1-2 is awesome, Gilliland said. Im very proud of David Ragan. I know he would have done the same for me. I had a heck of a run, we were pushing, I was locked to his bumper and I wasnt going to let him go.

second half. When Pascal Dupuis gave Pittsburgh its rst lead with 1 minute left in the opening period capping the three-goal spurt in 5:42 the early euphoria was gone in a ash. Douglas Murray pushed Pittsburghs lead to 4-2 in the second, and it appeared the Penguins would cruise. But it was a bumpy road back to regaining home-ice advantage against the upstart Islanders. Pittsburgh took the series opener 5-0 on Wednesday, but since then has been dealing with an inability to hang on. Allowing two goals in the third period led to a loss Friday. Pittsburgh led that one 2-0 and 3-1 in the rst period. OTTAWA -- Jean-Gabriel Pageau got his rst NHL hat trick to lead the Ottawa Senators in a ght-lled victory over the Montreal Canadiens. The teams combined for 236 penalty minutes and nine players were given a game misconduct. The Senators have a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series and Game 4 is Tuesday. The third period started out

with the Senators leading 2-1, but after Pageaus second goal of the night and a Kyle Turris goal at 7:00, emotions overowed and a line brawl broke out at center ice. Pageau, who was born in Ottawa, scored his second of the game at 1:18 of the third period to give the Senators a 3-1 lead.

Wild 3, Blackhawks 2, OT

ST. PAUL, Minn. -- Jason Zucker scored at 2:15 of overtime to give Minnesota a victory over Chicago, pulling the Wild within 2-1 in the Western Conference quarternal series. Zach Parise scored for the Wild early in the third period, but Duncan Keith got one back for the Blackhawks with 2:46 left in regulation to force the second overtime in three games of this best-of-seven series. Game 4 is here on Tuesday night. Keiths snap shot glanced off Wild defenseman Marco Scandella and past goalie Josh Harding to make the score 2-2. But after Matt Cullen ferociously chased the puck along the end boards in the opening action of overtime, Zucker swooped in to surprise Johnny Oduya as the Blackhawks defenseman was about to ght for possession with Cullen. Zuckers bad-angle shot slipped past goalie Corey Crawford.

Misericordia University scored ve ve runs in the bottom of the eighth to secure its third straight Freedom Conference Championship and an automatic berth in the NCAA Championships in a win over DeSales University on Sunday at Quakertowns Memorial Park. The Cougars dropped their opening round game, but rattled off four-straight victories to claim the conference crown. Misericordia trailed 5-4 in the bottom of the eighth before Julian Faria hit an RBI-single to right eld to tie the game at ve. After Farias hit, Ryan Cacchioli smacked a single to right eld, which gave the Cougars a 6-5 advantage. After a few walks, Andrew Tressa ripped a single to center to give the Cougars a 9-5 lead. Evan Robaczewski earned the victory on the mound, pitching two hitless innings and striking out two. Tressa compiled three hits in the game, including the 200th of his career, and recorded three RBI. Julian Faria also drove in three runs and added two hits. Misericordia freshman left elder Kyle Lindsay earned Tournament MVP honors, hitting .409 with two doubles, two RBI, seven runs scored and four stolen bases. The Cougars advanced to the NCAA Tournament where they will host the Mid-Atlantic Regional at PNC Field in Moosic. McGaughey has worked exclusively for Janney and Phipps for years, training the horses they breed. In a sport known for rampant jealousy, there was an outpouring of goodwill for all three men after the Derby. After watching replays of the Derby, McGaughey was more impressed with Orb. The maturity he showed yesterday in everything he did, from his Derby day to his experience in the paddock, which was tremendous, going in the post and the way he raced, it was amazing to me, he said. Orb will see some familiar challengers in the 1 3/16-mile Preakness. Mylute and Oxbow, who nished fth and sixth in the Derby, along with Will Take Charge (eighth), Itsmyluckyday (15th) and Goldencents (17th) are likely to face off against him again.

NEW YORK David West scored 20 points, Paul George added 19 and the Indiana Pacers beat the New York Knicks 10295 on Sunday in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference seminals. D.J. Augustin had 16 points for the Pacers, who built a 16-point lead while Carmelo Anthony was on the bench in foul trouble in the third quarter, and easily held on to spoil the Knicks rst second-round game since 2000. Anthony nished with 27 points and 11 rebounds, but was frustrated by the Pacers rugged defense and by the referees. He shot 10 of 28 from the eld. Game 2 is here Tuesday night, and then the series takes a lengthy break before Game 3 on Saturday in Indiana. Roy Hibbert scored 14 points

Thunder 93, Grizzlies 91

in thoroughly outplaying counterpart Tyson Chandler, and George Hill also had 14 for the Pacers.

James wins MVP

OKLAHOMA CITY Kevin Durant scored 35 points and hit a pair of jumpers in the nal minute to lift the Oklahoma City Thunder to a victory against Memphis in Game 1 of the Western Conference seminals. Game 2 is Tuesday night in Oklahoma City. MIAMI LeBron James is the overwhelming choice as the NBAs Most Valuable Player. The Miami Heat star took 120 of 121 rst-place votes in this years balloting, giving him the award for the fourth time. Oklahoma Citys Kevin Durant nished second and the New York Knicks Carmelo Anthony was third.

their Derby nish that year. For a trainer who has always shown patience with his horses, McGaughey is eagerly anticipating the grueling Triple Crown campaign that compresses three races into a veweek span. I cant wait to get to the Preakness and do it again, he said. Its tting that Orb is set to run in Baltimore, the hometown of Stuart Janney III. He and coowner Ogden Mills Dinny Phipps, who also bred Orb, have never won the Preakness. The Preakness is important to me. I grew up around it, went there all the time, Janney said.

PHILADELPHIA Adeiny Hechavarria hit a grand slam and a bases-loaded triple off an ailing Roy Halladay, driving in seven runs for the Miami Marlins in a 14-2 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday. After the game, Halladay said he had a sore right shoulder. He said he will undergo tests this week in Los Angeles and be examined by Dr. Lewis Yocum. Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said Halladay (2-4) will likely be put on the disabled list. The two-time Cy Young winner and eight-time All-Star had his worst start since his rookie season. He gave up nine runs on four hits, four walks and two hit batters in 2 1-3 innings. Halladay, who turns 36 this month, has an 8.65 ERA. Kevin Slowey (1-2) gave up two hits in seven shutout innings for his rst win since September 2010. He had been winless in 22 major league appearances, including 15 starts. Justin Ruggiano homered twice for the Marlins. ATLANTA Freddie Freeman homered and drove in three runs, Tim Hudson pitched into the eighth inning and the Atlanta Braves beat the Mets. Freeman got three hits, including a two-run double off Jonathon Niese (2-3) in a verun third. PITTSBURGH Tyler Moore hit a three-run homer

and Danny Espinosa homered and drove in three runs, leading Gio Gonzalez and the Washington Nationals over Pittsburgh. Nationals star Bryce Harper was ejected in the rst inning. He tried to hold up on a 2-2 pitch from Wandy Rodriguez (22) and home plate umpire Bob Davidson pointed to third base ump John Hirschbeck for help. Hirschbeck ruled that Harper had swung. Harper stood outside the batters box, stared at Hirschbeck for a few moments and dropped his bat. Hirschbeck then tossed last seasons NL Rookie of the Year.

Grandma can speak up in order to keep phone conversations private

Dear Abby: My granddaughter and her boyfriend live in another state, and I love hearing from her. However, when I call her, she always puts me on speaker phone, which I find rude. I have never met her boyfriend and dont feel he should be in on everything I may talk to my granddaughter about. I think shes forming a bad habit. Am I wrong for feeling this way? Private Grandma in Florida Dear Private: I dont think so. Not every word that comes out of your mouth should be community property. The next time it happens, all you

DEAR ABBY
ADVICE
have to do is say, Honey, take me off the speaker, please. Dear Abby: My wife, Carlene, is a neonatal ICU nurse who is required to work a certain number of holidays. For the past 12 years, her family has feigned attempting to accommodate her schedule and then planned holiday events at the same exact time and place as the year before. They have ignored repeated explanations and dont seem to care if we come or not. Last Thanksgiving they made a big deal about everyone sending their schedules via email. We responded

that Carlene would have to work until 3 p.m. Shortly after, we received a call from the host, who said: We know you cant make it, but the celebration will be at 12 sharp! Maybe well see you some other time. Abby, my wife feels like she is unimportant to everyone. She plans to stop attending all family events and celebrate only with me and our daughter. While that would be easier, I know it probably isnt the best solution. Should I support her decision, or is there some answer I havent thought of yet? Let Down in Texas Dear Let Down: Your wife should make no decisions about future celebrations while shes angry. If she follows through on her impulse to

boycott all family events, she will be cutting her nose off to spite her face. On those occasions when its not possible to attend extended family gatherings, celebrating with immediate family seems like a sensible solution. Or consider hosting the celebration yourselves so you can set the party time. Dear Abby: I got pregnant by a man Ill call Ryan, who was just a fling. When I told him, he told me to have an abortion. He had a friend of his call, offer to pay for it and drive me. Instead, I decided to abort Ryan from my life. I never told him when our baby was born. Part of me feels bad because I think every child should know his/her father and family members. Another man has been

willing to step up and be a daddy for my child. Should I even bother to let Ryan know? Should I give him a chance to rise to the occasion or keep things the way they are? Living My Life in Indiana Dear Living Your Life: You should ask a lawyer, just in case Ryan has already risen as much as he intends to. Whether or not someone has stepped up to be your babys daddy, Ryan has a financial obligation to that child.

UNIVERSAL SUDOKU

CRYPTOQUOTE

HOROSCOPE
BY HOLIDAY MATHIS
ARIES (March 21-April 19). The problem may seem larger than life today, but the answer is about as small as life can get. Focus on the one step you can take in the moment to move yourself forward. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Stamina is one of your natural gifts, but you still have to do a bit of planning to get to the end of a race. Youll plot out milestones that will keep you accountable and motivated. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You usually do not try to gain control over others until it is obvious that someone is spinning out and can use the redirection. Your leadership will be wanted and needed this afternoon. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Everyone just wants to feel better, including you. Youre in a good place, so youre willing to do the hard work that will make this happen. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Its your instinct to use the element of surprise to entertain others. Youll reply to the usual questions in unusual ways. In your book, its a sin to be generic. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). When you have a lot on your mind, as you do right now, you appreciate the kind of sensitive and bright people who tend toward brief interactions that get to the point. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Morality can seem complex, but heres a simple truth: There is a difference between wanting to do whats right and being afraid of the repercussions that could happen if you do whats wrong. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Have you ever forgotten a password? The answers that seem perfectly obvious in the moment may prove difficult to recall. All is saved by writing things down. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your self-definition is constantly changing these days. Because you crave expansion and are forever growing your knowledge and influence, challenge is essential to your happiness. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Youve walked the fine line between determination and obsession before, so youre familiar with todays ultrafocused state of mind. Frequent breaks will help you maintain a healthy perspective. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your overactive sense of duty may have you working on projects that are not likely to forward your own interests directly or immediately, but youll never regret fulfilling your obligations. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You cant decide where you want to live today. Youll bounce between Earth and ethereal realms of thought and feeling. All of this movement is highly creative. Record what you come up with. TODAYS BIRTHDAY (May 6). Youll form your own theories from the rushing stream of information and ideas that flows your way this month. Experiment in June. A breakthrough in the early stages will be followed by a new source of funding that opens up in July. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 50, 36, 28 and 16.
