BUFFALO, N.Y.
Targeting the soaring
cost of higher education,
President Barack Obama
on Thursday unveiled a
broad new government
rating system for colleges
that would judge schools
on their affordability and
perhaps be used to allo-
cate federal nancial aid.
But the proposed
overhaul faced immedi-
ate skepticism from col-
lege leaders who worry
the rankings could cost
their institutions mil-
lions of dollars, as well
as from congressional
Republicans wary of
deepening the govern-
ments role in higher edu-
cation.
The president, speak-
ing to a student-heavy
crowd of 7,000 at the
University at Buffalo,
said he expected push-
back from those who have
proted from the balloon-
ing cost of college. But
he argued that with the
nations economy still
shaky and students facing
increasing global com-
petition, making college
affordable is an econom-
ic imperative.
Higher education can-
not be a luxury, Obama
said during the rst stop
on a two-day bus tour
through New York and
Pennsylvania. Every
American family should
be able to get it.
Republicans on Capitol
Hill weighed in quickly
with criticism. Lamar
Alexander of Tennessee,
the top Republican
on the Senate Health,
Education, Labor and
Pensions Committee,
cast the proposal as gov-
ernment overreach and
suggested a state-by-state
approach would be pref-
erable.

WILKES-BARRE A federal bankruptcy
judge on Thursday permitted the sale of the
Huber Breaker that will likely be demolished
for scrap, ending efforts to restore the mam-
moth structure in Ashley.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge John J. Thomas
awarded a $1.25 million bid by Paselo Logistics
LLC, with an address listed on court records
as 221 12th St., Philadelphia, during an auc-
tion in the federal courthouse in Wilkes-Barre.
The property had been owned by No. 1
Contracting of South Main Street, Ashley,
which led for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in
March 2010 and was converted to Chapter 7 in
November of that year, requiring the business
to liquidate its assets, equipment and property.
The Huber Breaker has an estimated 900 tons
of steel.
The property also consists of one ofce,
three garages/warehouses and a second, small-
er breaker.
Sale may
mean end
for Huber
The $1.25 million bid
likely means the
historic breaker will be
turned into scrap

Alicia Conley welcomes her husband, Randy, back with a hug Thursday at the 109th Field Artillery Armory on Thursday in Wilkes-Barre.
Its a little nerve racking but its good. Weve been waiting for a long time. It was a long nine months.
An unusually high number
of bidding wars jacked up
prices at Thursdays popu-
lar Luzerne County back-tax
auction.
We never did this kind of
business. I think its unbe-
lievable, said John Rodgers,
head of the countys tax
claim operator, Northeast
Revenue Service LLC.
Bidders snatched up 120
of the 223 listed proper-
ties, paying a combined
$998,980.
In comparison, 109 prop-
erties out of 260 proper-
ties were purchased in last
Augusts free-and-clear auc-
tion for $854,533.
Unlike Thursdays sale,
the 2012 auction included
a big-ticket property the
former Dominics on the
Lake restaurant at Harveys
Lake, which sold for
$220,000.
The highest valued prop-
erty in Thursdays sale
the Keystone Garden Estates
assisted-living facility in
Larksville was removed
because the property owner
paid $288,189 in taxes owed
from 2007 through 2011.
Rodgers wasnt sure why
bidding was livelier than
usual Thursday but said
more people seem interest-
ed in landing deals. A total
253 bidders registered.
We attracted bidders
from all over, he said.

WILKES-BARRE Pennsylvania
National Guardsmen specialists
Edward Hilstolsky and Rich Presto
have something in common: They
were both holding their babies for the
rst time.
Hilstolsky and Presto were among
50 soldiers of the 109th Field Artillery
with the 55th Brigade who returned
home on Thursday.
It didnt take long for the newfathers
to hold their sons.
Its the worst feeling in the world,
Hilstolsky, of Swoyersville, said about
being away from his wife, Nicole, and
13-week-old son, Conner Edward.
Its a little nerve racking, but its
good. Weve been waiting for a long
time, Nicole said. It was a long nine
months.
Presto, of Plymouth, held his
2-month-old son, Rich Jr., for the
rst time and had a little trouble with
the pacier. The baby spit it out, but
Presto caught it like a pro.
It is denitely a great feeling,
Presto said while cradling his son.
Ive seen him on the computer, talked
to himon the phone, but this is special,
a very special moment for me.
Soldiers returned to the armory off
Market Street in two Martz Trailways
buses at about 12:30 p.m. after a
22-hour ride from Mississippi to a
large crowd of family and friends, many
holding signs saying, Welcome home
daddy and God Bless the USA.
Some soldiers jumped out of the
doors, running to their loved ones
while others retrieved luggage from
under the buses.
They were away from their families
since last October.
After a month of training at a U.S.
Army base in the South, they spent
eight months in Kuwait performing
security missions as part of Operation
New Dawn. They were among 1,500
Pennsylvania Army National Guard
soldiers from the 55th Brigade
deployed in Kuwait.

BEAR CREEK TWP. Three
men from Philadelphia were
arrested on drug and rearm
offenses after a trafc stop for
alleged speeding through a con-
struction zone on the Northeast
Extension of the Pennsylvania
Turnpike.
Anton Larry Bennett, 27,
Malachi Bennett, 25, and Jamel
Clark, 40, all related to one anoth-
er, were arraigned Thursday.
State police allege they found a
loaded .357 revolver, 419 heroin
packets with a street value of
$8,600 and 22 plastic containers
lled with packaged bags of mari-
juana inside a Chevrolet SUV that
was stopped for traveling 57 mph
in a 45 mph construction zone on
the turnpike Wednesday night.
Anton Bennett, who was driv-
ing the Chevrolet, stopped on
state Route 115.
According to the
criminal complaint, this
is how things unfolded:
A trooper approached
the vehicle and detected
a strong odor of mari-
juana coming from it.
Anton Bennett told
state police he was on
his way to Plymouth to see his
cousin, while Clark said they
were going to see a friend in
Wilkes-Barre.
Neither of the two men knew
the addresses to where they
were going.
Anton Bennett told the troop-
er there was a small amount of
marijuana in a cup holder inside
the vehicle.
More troopers arrived assist
as a records check showed
Anton Bennett has prior drug
and gun convictions.
A search allegedly
resulted in the seizure
of a loaded .357-cali-
ber revolver and three
large bags contain-
ing suspected heroin
packets hidden behind
the glove compart-
ment, and 22 plastic
containers lled with
marijuana on the back seat.
The three men were charged
with multiple counts of drug
and gun offenses, and each was
jailed at the Luzerne County
Correctional Facility for lack of
$50,000 bail.

he called another tool to curb drug activity and
violence.
The changes were approvedby a 3-0vote, with
Chairman Bill Barrett, George Brown and Mike
Merritt voting. Vice Chairman Tony George and
member Maureen Lavelle were excused from
the meeting.
Frank Sorick, president of the Wilkes-Barre
Taxpayers Association, said he favors the con-
cept, but expressed concerns about the details
and implementation particularly a provision
holding that any notice given to the agent, prop-
erty manager or occupant shall be deemed as
notice given to the owner, and that a claimed
lack of knowledge by the owner, property man-
ager or agent will not stand as defense against
closure of a rental unit.
That doesnt sit well with me: Well, we hand-
ed your tenant something, Sorick said.
Vinsko replied that the city wants to keep the
duty on the occupant, but that no property will
be closed without due process.
We still have to prove it, Vinsko said of evi-
dence required to close a building.
Sorick replied that while landlords stand to
lose income, problem tenants could potentially
evade the consequences of their actions by sim-
ply moving to another property.
This is not going to be applied in a vacuum,
Vinsko said. Were condent the correct appli-
cation of this will succeed.
Wilkes-Barre Township resident Joe
Mrozoski, who with his wife owns nine rental
units in the city, wanted to know whether the
lawwould be enforced against large landlords as
well as small.
If Sherman Hills has an incident or two, will
they shut down the whole place? Mrozoski
asked about the complex, which consists of a
high-rise building and eight three-story build-
ings off Coal Street.
As written, the legislation allows ofcials to
close a single rental unit or an entire building.
Vinsko replied that while he was not going to
specically answer the Sherman Hills question,
ofcials will meet to ensure that we are all on
the same page with respect to enforcement.
This is as applicable to Sherman Hills as to
any other rental property, Barrett chimed in. If
there are issues there, they will be treated the
same way.
Leighton, who championed the move in the
wake of a July 7 homicide on South Grant Street,
was not present Thursday. That fact was not
lost on Bob Kadluboski, a frequent critic of the
administration who let loose a strident critique
of the amendment when he took the podium as
the third and nal member of the public to speak
about the change.
Kadluboski pointed out the American Civil
Liberties Union already has raised concerns
about the legislation.
Whats the rush? What are we pushing this
through for? The mayor sat right there and said
crime is down, Kadluboski said, referencing
remarks the mayor made earlier this year with
respect to crime statistics overall.
Council voted moments after he nished
speaking.

LOS ANGELES Ben Afeck
will don Batmans cape and cowl.
Warner Bros. announced
Thursday that the 41-year-old
actor-director will star as a new
incarnation of the Dark Knight
in a lm bringing Batman and
Superman together.
The studio said Afeck will
star opposite 30-year-old Henry
Cavill, who will reprise his role as
Superman from Man of Steel.
The movie will also feature Man
of Steel stars Amy Adams as
Lois Lane, Laurence Fishburne
as Perry White and Diane Lane as
Martha Kent.
The big-screen DC Comics
superhero mash-up was rst
revealed by director Zack Snyder
at last months Comic-Con
International in San Diego.
Snyder, who will direct the
sequel written by Man of Steel
screenwriter David S. Goyer, said
in a statement that Afeck will
provide an interesting counter-
balance to Cavills Clark Kent.
(Afeck) has the acting chops
to create a layered portrayal of a
man who is older and wiser than
Clark Kent and bears the scars
of a seasoned crime ghter, but
retain the charm that the world
sees in billionaire Bruce Wayne,
said Snyder. I cant wait to work
with him.
Production on the as-yet-unti-
tled lm is expected to begin in
2014 for release July 17, 2015.
It wont be Afecks rst time in
superhero garb. He played a blind
Marvel crime ghter in 2003s
Daredevil and portrayed 1950s
Superman actor George Reeves in
2006s Hollywoodland.

Luzerne County Council
members spent three hours
Thursday night publicly
interviewing six county
Republicans interested in
completing the rest of Walter
Griffiths controller term the
next four months.
The applicants: Peter
Gagliardi, Wilkes-Barre;
Malcolm Hudgeon, Wilkes-
Barre; Aaron Kaufer,
Kingston; Carolee Medico
Olenginski, Mountain
Top; Walter Mitchell,
Bear Creek Village; and
John Sokolowski, Plains
Township.
Each spent up to a half
hour discussing their quali-
fications and plans for the
office.
Council members will
choose an acting controller
on Tuesday. The applicants
resumes are posted at www.
luzernecounty.org.
The six contenders offered
mixed views on the manage-
ment style theyd bring to
the position:
Mitchell said he tries
to focus on principles rather
than personalities and is
not abrasive.
He would research the
cause of problems and iden-
tify fixes, publicly alerting
council if warranted.
I can be forceful and
forthright without being
argumentative and adversar-
ial, he said. I feel that there
are better ways to handle a
problem than by publicly air-
ing our dirty laundry.
Gagliardi said he had
to develop a productive
working relationship when
he dealt with sailors and
soldiers in the trenches and
high-ranking military offi-
cers during prior employ-
ment at the U.S. Department
of Defense
Im not looking for head-
lines. Im not looking to
make a political career out
of this position, he said.
Hudgeon said he is
tenacious and would be the
eyes and ears for the peo-
ple.
He said he would try to
identify the responsible
person if he finds missing
money and would consult
authorities if he suspected
theft.
Kaufer said the control-
ler doesnt have to be butt-
ing heads to be an effective
independent watchdog.
He said he has strong
communication skills and
would work through prob-
lems and find solutions. He
would alert both council and
the manager if a problem is
identified.
Were a team. We have to
work together if we want to
get our goals accomplished,
he said.
Medico Olenginski
said she would fully research
problems and has consulted
experts in the past. She
would notify management
and council if her research
indicates corrective action
is warranted.
She said she has alerted
investigatory agencies in
the past when she found
evidence of potential wrong-
doing and would inform the
media of concerns if manage-
ment and/or county council
failed to address them so the
public is aware.
If it falls on deaf ears,
where else are you going to
go? she asked.
Sokolowski said the
controller must hold coun-
ty leadership accountable
but also must be a team
member to successfully
complete tasks.
Confrontation cannot be
played out in the media, he
said. If selected, I do not
see my role as messaging
county concerns to the press
and creating a hostile envi-
ronment.
County Chief Solicitor C.
David Pedri said all six met
the requirement of being
registered Republicans dat-
ing back to Nov. 3, 2009,
when Griffith was elected.
The applicants also consent-
ed to background checks,
which will be completed by
human resources, he said.
The position pays $1,406
every two weeks through
Jan. 3, when the controller
elected in November will
take office.

Senator says
government
sequester will
force 142 children
from the program
WILKES-BARRE Eneida
Cardona was nervous, but she
managed to get her message out
Thursday her children and oth-
ers have benefited from the pre-kin-
dergarten programs at Head Start.
Cardona, 43, of Plymouth, joined
U.S. Sen. Bob Casey and others at
the Beekman Street center to urge
Congress to reverse impending
sequester cuts that will, if enacted,
eliminate places for some 142 chil-
dren from the Luzerne County pro-
gram, 2,812 in Pennsylvania and
57,265 across the country. The cuts
would be for the Head Start and
Early Head Start programs.
Im glad I qualified for the Head
Start program, Cardona said. My
children have a desire to learn, and
they have a better chance of suc-
ceeding in school because of Head
Start.
On the eve of President Barack
Obamas visit to Northeastern
Pennsylvania, Casey stopped in
Wilkes-Barre to call on Congress to
reverse the anticipated $400 million
$403,000 in Luzerne County
sequester cuts affecting Head Start.
Head Start is an important
resource that helps low-income
children receive a high-quality edu-
cation that sets them on the path
for success in life, Casey said,
standing next to empty chairs
that represented the children who
would be cut from the program.
Congress has the opportunity to
reverse the sequester so that chil-
dren in Luzerne County and across
Pennsylvania can attend Head
Start. This is also about our econo-
my. Head Start sets a foundation for
life that can take children through
high school, college and into the job
market.
Lynn Biga, executive director at
the Luzerne County Head Start,
said there will be 49 fewer children
in the program this year, adding to
the waiting list that is approaching
600, and 93 more spots will be lost
next year.
We see children at the criti-
cal time of their development,
Biga said. Low-income families
shouldnt be denied pre-school
learning opportunities. Were very
disappointed with the cuts already
made to our program.
Casey said that with the fate of the
sequesters 2014 impacts set to be
decided in September, he authored
a letter to Senate and House lead-
ership highlighting the devastating
impact of the looming cuts.
The evidence is mounting that
this method of addressing our
budget issues is having dire conse-
quences, especially on our nations
youngest and most vulnerable citi-
zens: low-income children enrolled
in Head Start, Casey wrote.
He said the sequester cuts are
across the board, affecting well-
performing programs as well as bad
programs. He said Congress should
scrap the sequester and cut pro-
grams that have not measured up.
How many of the children that
would be cut from programs like
Head Start have the capacity to
unleash their potential and have
an impact on the world? Casey
asked. One of this countrys great-
est strengths is its people and their
focus on the promise of tomorrow.
Harry Heck, a Head Start volun-
teer who has five grandchildren in
the program, said that without the
pre-school program children would
be denied many opportunities life
has to offer.
If these cuts go though, the kids
will lose out, he said.
U.S. Sen. Robert Casey held a press conference at Head Start on Beekman St in Wilkes-Barre to talk about the effects federal sequester cuts
will have on pre-school programs. The empty chairs represent students that would not be able to attend if the cuts go through.

Charter, cyber schools a hot topic at meeting
KINGSTON Charter and cyber
schools topped a stream of topics
on which area educational leaders
quizzed Pennsylvanias new acting
secretary of education at town hall
meeting on education Thursday at
the Luzerne Intermediate Unit.
Acting Secretary of Education
William Harner told the approxi-
mately three dozen area school
superintendents, principals, program
directors, school board members and
teacher union leaders who attended
that the purpose of his visit was to
create a conversation in the com-
munity thats at the state level
about education, explaining that he
approached the Pennsylvania School
Board Association to coordinate
these types of meetings in the asso-
ciations 15 regions throughout the
state.
Harner called the town halls part
of a listening campaign he is on to
really get a good handle and under-
standing about the issues whats
going on in the (intermediate units)
and also get a sense of what I need
to know so I can help shape policy
recommendations for the administra-
tion and inuence policy with the
Legislature.
He summarized his experience
and qualications, which includes
20 years as an infantry ofcer, retir-
ing as a battalion commander and
airborne ranger. After serving on
the faculty of West Point for three
years, he decided to spend the rest
of his life using his leadership skills
to change the world for children,
working as a teacher, principal and
superintendent.
When Harner opened the oor
for questions, Wyoming Valley
West School Board member Tom
Pieczynski was the rst of several
attendees to talk about charter and
cyber schools, telling Harner they are
killing (school) districts nancially
and its got to be stopped.
State representatives Mike Carroll,
Phyllis Mundy and Eddie Day
Pashinski attended the meeting and
gave their input, agreeing that the
funding formula must be addressed.
Harner said the Senate, House and
administration are working on the
issue and are still in the information
gathering mode.
Northwest Area School District
Superintendent Ron Grevera com-
plained that cyber charter schools are
unfairly operating under different
rules, adding that not one met fed-
eral adequate yearly progress require-
ments.
Those institutions are failing
institutions, Grevera said, add-
ing that failing schools in inner cit-
ies such as Philadelphia have been
closed. Yet we have cyber charters
operating that are still functioning
and being funded by taxpayers,
while children attending them arent
appropriately being educated, yet
allowed to pass from one grade to
the next.
Some other topics discussed
included career and technical educa-
tion and establishing apprenticeships
with businesses in communities, the
education pension system, school
property tax reform and the develop-
ment of core educational standards.

Ofcials tell Pa. secretary of education online schools are hurting districts
Clark Van Orden|The Times Leader
ATTLEBORO, Mass.
Former New England Patriot
Aaron Hernandez was indict-
ed Thursday on rst-degree
murder and weapons charges
in the death of a friend whose
bullet-riddled body was found
in an industrial park about
a mile from the ex-players
home.
The six-count grand
jury indictment charges
Hernandez with killing
27-year-old Odin Lloyd, a
semi-professional football
player from Boston who
was dating the sister of
Hernandezs girlfriend.
Hernandez, 23, pleaded not
guilty to murder and weap-
ons charges in June, and he is
being held without bail.
He had a brief court appear-
ance in Attleboro on Thursday
afternoon. Afterward, his
attorney Michael Fee said the
defense was pleased to be on
a path to a jury trial and was
looking forward to testing the
prosecutions evidence.
There has been an incred-
ible rush to judgment in this
case, and the state doesnt
have enough evidence to
prove the charges, he said.
Hernandez signed a con-
tract last summer worth $40
million but was cut by the
Patriots within hours of his
June 26 arrest, when police
led the handcuffed athlete
from his home as news cam-
eras rolled.
He could face life in prison
if convicted.
The Bristol County grand
jury also indicted two oth-
ers in the case: Hernandez
associate Ernest Wallace and
Hernandezs cousin Tanya
Singleton.
Wallace is charged with
accessory to murder after the
fact. Prosecutors have said he
was with Hernandez the night
Lloyd died.
Singleton is charged with
criminal contempt for refus-
ing to testify before the grand
jury, Bristol County District
Attorney Samuel Sutter
said. She has been jailed in
Massachusetts since Aug. 1.
A recent afdavit said that,
after Lloyds killing, Singleton
bought Wallace a bus ticket.
Carlos Ortiz, who faces a
weapons charge in district
court connected to the case,
was not indicted.
Sutter said Hernandezs
arraignment in Superior
Court, where the case now
moves, could come next week.
A jogger found Lloyds
body on June 17 in a North
Attleborough industrial park.
His mother, Ursula Ward,
called him a loving son who
never hurt anyone.
Prosecutors say Hernandez
orchestrated Lloyds killing
becausehewasupset at himfor
talking to people Hernandez
had problems with at a night-
club days earlier. They say
Hernandez, Wallace and Ortiz
picked Lloyd up at his home
in Bostons Dorchester neigh-
borhood early on June 17 and
then drove to the industrial
park.
Shortly before his death,
authorities say, Lloyd sent his
sister text messages asking
if she had seen who he was
with. NFL, he wrote. Just
so you know.
Moments later, authori-
ties say, Lloyd was dead after
gunshots rang out near a
warehouse after he apparently
got out of the car for what
he thought was a bathroom
break.

Mubarak enters
house arrest
Egypts ousted leader Hosni Mubarak,
wearing a white shirt and loafers while
ashing a smile, was released fromprison
Thursday and transported to a military
hospital in a Cairo suburb where he will
be held under house arrest.
Prime Minister Hazem el-Beblawi had
ordered that Mubarak be put under house
arrest as part of the emergency measures
imposed this month after a wave of vio-
lence sparked by the ouster of Islamist
leader Mohammed Morsi, who had suc-
ceeded Mubarak as Egypts rst freely
elected president.
Thursdays move followed a court deci-
sion ordering Mubaraks release in rela-
tion to charges of receiving gifts from a
state-owned newspaper.
FORT HOOD, TexAs
Hasan quiet as
jury gets case
The Army psychiatrist on trial for the
2009 shooting rampage at Fort Hood
passed on his nal chance to address
jurors before they started deliberating
Thursday, even after prosecutors insisted
they hand down a verdict that would
allow the death penalty.
Maj. Nidal Hasan is acting as his own
attorney but declined to plead his case
after prosecutors nished their closing
argument. When the judge told Hasan he
could begin, he said: The defense choos-
es not to make a closing statement.
The former Army psychiatrist is facing
numerous counts of premeditated mur-
der and attempted premeditated murder
for the attack, which killed 13 people
and wounded more than 30 others at the
Army post in central Texas on Nov. 5,
2009.

Tour bus fips,
injuring dozens
A tour bus carrying gamblers to an
Indian casino overturned on a Southern
California freeway Thursday, injuring
more than 50 people on board, authori-
ties said.
The bus went through a chain-link
fence off the side of Interstate 210 around
10 a.m. and ended up on its side.
More than 50 people received minor
injuries, including nine who were taken
to hospitals for evaluation or treatment,
said Cheryl Sims, a dispatch supervisor
with the county re department. Tallies
at the scene ranged between 52 and 55
and the discrepancy could not be imme-
diately resolved.
At least ve were own by helicopters

Jacobs said.
FORTWORTH, TexAs
Wrong homes
get demolished
Demolitions of substandard structures
were halted as city ofcials review why
two houses were wrongly torn down this
summer and establish new procedures.
A supervisor was put on administra-
tive leave amid a review of the mid-July
incidents, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram
reported.
Bill Begley, a spokesman for the city,
said Wednesday that a city-hired contrac-
tor on July 11 tore down two homes on
the same north-side lot. The order was to
raze only one house that had suffered re
damage, Begley said.
Fort Worth ofcials discovered that
error while investigating the incorrect
July 12 demolition of a Lake Worth-area
home. Authorities later determined a
city crew marked the wrong structure
to be razed, as the house next door was
approved for demolition by the citys
building standards commission, Begley
said.

Deal may
force out
embattled
S.D. mayor
SAN DIEGO Mayor Bob
Filner kept his low profile
Thursday amid speculation
he will resign as part of the
sexual harassment settlement
negotiated by his lawyers, city
officials and the attorney for a
woman who sued the mayor.
Details of the deal struck
Wednesday were kept pri-
vate ahead of
todays expect-
ed closed-door
vote by the
City Council
on whether
to accept the
terms. The
woman who
sued Filner
his former communications
director, Irene McCormack
Jackson had demanded he
resign and her lawyer, Gloria
Allred, was part of the negotia-
tions.
A person with knowledge of
the negotiations said the main
sticking points during the
talks involved granting Filner
indemnity in the lawsuit and
paying his legal fees. The per-
son was not authorized to com-
ment publicly and spoke only
on condition of anonymity.
At least 17 women have
claimed Filner sexually
harassed them, though only one
lawsuit has been filed. All nine
members of the City Council
along with a laundry list of fel-
low Democrats including U.S.
Sen. Barbara Boxer and U.S.
House Minority Leader Nancy
Pelosi have called on Filner to
quit.
Francine Busby, chairwom-
an of the San Diego County
Democratic Party, said voters
will accept nothing short of
resignation as part of a settle-
ment.
The voters are ready to get
this behind them and move for-
ward. It has to be resignation,
she said.
Former city attorney Michael
Aguirre said he expects that
next week the political discus-
sion will be about who will be
the next mayor.
If you read the tea leaves,
the people demanding his res-
ignation seem satisfied with
settlement, Aguirre said. I
think its pretty clear hes going
to resign.
Filners lawyers issued a
statement Thursday confirm-
ing the settlement but declined
to provide details due to the
confidential nature of media-
tion and settlement discus-
sions.
Filner hasnt had any public
events since returning to work
this week following therapy for
his behavior. He has acknowl-
edged disrespecting and intim-
idating women but has denied
any sexual harassment.
City Attorney Jan Goldsmith,
who negotiated on the citys
behalf, also has declined to
comment about terms of the
deal. Goldsmith previously
presented the City Council
with a resolution to not pay for
Filners defense and to coun-
tersue to distance the city from
the scandal.

FORT MEADE, Md. Bradley
Manning wants to live as a woman
named Chelsea and begin hormone
treatment as soon as possible, the sol-
dier said a day after being sentenced
to 35 years in prison for giving govern-
ment secrets to WikiLeaks.
Manning announced the decision
Thursday in a statement provided to
NBCs Today show.
As I transition into this next phase
of my life, I want everyone to know the
real me. I am Chelsea Manning. I am a
female. Given the way that I feel, and
have felt since childhood, I want to
begin hormone therapy as soon as pos-
sible, the statement read.
The statement asked people to use
the feminine pronoun when referring
to Manning. It was signed Chelsea E.
Manning.
Manning received the stiffest punish-
ment ever handed out in the U.S. for
leaking information to the media. With
good behavior and credit for more than
three years of time served, Manning
could be out in as little as seven years,
the soldiers attorney David Coombs
said.
Coombs told Today he hoped
ofcials at the military prison in Fort
Leavenworth, Kan., will accommodate
Mannings request for hormone treat-
ment. If they dont, Coombs said he
would do everything in my power to
make it happen.
The Army said it doesnt provide the
treatment or sex-reassignment surgery.
All inmates are considered soldiers
and are treated as such with access to
mental health professionals, including a
psychiatrist, psychologist, social work-
ers and behavioral science noncom-
missioned ofcers, Army spokesman
George Wright said.
Many transgender people use cross-
sex hormone treatments to alter their
gender characteristics. Guidelines from
the Endocrine Society endorse the ther-
apy along with monitoring for poten-
tial health risks of long-term use. For
instance, high doses of the female sex
hormone estrogen given to someone
born male promote breast development.
Leavenworth is an all-male pris-
on. Spokesman George Marcec said
there had never been a case similar to
Mannings, and the soldier would need
to petition for a transfer to a federal
prison to receive hormone treatment.

France: Use of force an option in Syria
PARIS Frances foreign
minister on Thursday raised
the possibility of the interna-
tional community using force
in Syria if it is proven that
Bashir Assads regime used
chemical weapons in an attack
the opposition says killed
more than 100 people.
Laurent Fabius spoke a
day after the U.N. Security
Council called for a thor-
ough, impartial and prompt
investigation of the latest
allegations against the regime,
in a statement that diplomats
say was watered down by
objections from Syria allies
Russia and China.
Opposition forces and activ-
ists have said that at least
136 people, including many
children, were killed in the
Wednesday attack in which
most bodies bore no sign of
wounds. The U.S., Britain,
France and others have
demanded that a team of U.N.
experts already in Syria be
granted immediate access to
investigate the site.
French President Francois
Hollande spoke Thursday by
phone with U.N. Secretary-
General Ban Ki-moon and
expressed Frances support
for a quick investigation into
the likely use of chemical
weapons, the French leaders
ofce said in a statement,
without elaborating.
Speaking on RMC radio,
Fabius didnt make clear how
the use of chemical weapons
by the Syrian regime might be
proven. But if there is proof of
a chemical weapons attack by
the regime, we need a reac-
tion by the international com-
munity . a reaction of force,
he said.
Fabius excluded boots on
the ground as an option, but
a reaction that can take a
form, I dont want to be more
precise, of force.

PLAINS WILKES-BARRE
Court weighs in on private legal work by staf
HARRISBURG The
state Supreme Court has
barred state appellate
court staff members from
performing private legal
work for compensation.
The ruling comes
amid reports of a federal
investigation into legal
fees paid to the wife of
Supreme Court Justice
Seamus McCaffery.
The high courts
order issued Wednesday
extends to many, if not
all, staff employees of the
states appellate courts.
The order did not men-
tion McCaffery or his
wife and chief adminis-
trative judicial assistant,
Lise Rapaport, who is
paid $75,395 by the state.
McCafferys state-
ments of nancial inter-
est, which court of-
cials make public upon
request, report that eight
law rms have paid refer-
ral fees to Rapaport on
19 occasions since 2003,
The Philadelphia Inquirer
has reported.
McCaffery was not
required to disclose the
amounts of the fees in
the nancial disclosures,
but a court ling last
year revealed that one
fee paid to Rapaport was
$821,000, the Inquirer
has reported.
All of the law rms and
their lawyers have made
campaign donations to
McCaffery, and some
have argued cases in front
of him, the Inquirer has
reported.
McCaffery, 63, did
not respond to a tele-
phone message at his
Philadelphia ofce
Thursday.
It was not immediately
clear whether the order
will cover the practice of
referring people to law
rms in exchange for a
fee.
Chief Justice Ronald
Castille told the Inquirer
on Wednesday that the
majority of the seven-
member court viewed
the acceptance of referral
fees as a form of practic-
ing law.
A lawyer for McCaffery
and Rapaport told the
Inquirer that the legal
fees she received to refer
people to law rms did
not constitute either
the practice of law or a
conict of interest for
McCaffery.
Castille told the
Inquirer for a story pub-
lished in March that the
fees raise the potential
for conicts of interest
and the appearance of
impropriety.
He did not immediately
respond to a request for
comment Thursday.
The Inquirer reported
on Sunday that federal
investigators had request-
ed copies of McCafferys
statements of nancial
interest and assorted
information about the
fees from the law rms
involved.
McCaffery, a Democrat
and former Philadelphia
municipal court judge,
won a seat on the
Superior Court in 2003
then the Supreme Court
in 2007.
Scrutiny of McCaffery
follows the February
conviction of another
state Supreme Court jus-
tice, Joan Orie Melvin,
on charges that she used
her taxpayer-paid judi-
cial staff and resources to
help wage her campaigns
for the seat.

Pennsylvania ofcials

new weight restrictions
on about 1,000 state and

Someone wearing a ski
mask tried to enter a bank
in the citys Heights section
Wednesday afternoon.
City police were dis-
patched to Landmark

someone wearing a ski mask
and dark clothing tried

female.
As police arrived, a per-

on Mill Street. Ofcers
didnt nd the suspect dur-

Pennsylvania has nearly
4,500 structurally de-
cient bridges, more than
any other state, out of
a total of 25,000 state-
owned bridges. It also
has 6,000 locally owned
bridges.
About half of the
1,000 bridges subject to
new restrictions already
are posted with weight
restrictions and half are
not, ofcials said.
The reduced weight
limits are generally
expected to be between
10 and 20 percent of the
bridges current capacity,
although some could face
larger reductions because
the amount of trafc they
carry and other factors,
ofcials said.
For an unposted bridge,
which can handle a 40-ton
tractor-trailer, a 10 per-
cent reduction would
translate into a weight
limit of 36 tons.
School-bus operators,
emergency services pro-
viders and other local of-
cials were being notied
Thursday about rerout-
ing that the bridge limits
might require.
PennDOTs announce-
ment came less than
two months after bills to
increase taxes and fees to
nance improvements to
highway, bridge and mass
transit infrastructure
stalled in the Legislature.
Both major proposals
rely heavily on increas-
ing the state oil company
franchise tax by phasing
out a cap on the amount
of the wholesale price
that is subject to the tax.
A plan backed by Gov.
Tom Corbett would raise
$1.8 billion by 2018,
while a plan approved by
the state Senate would
generate $2.5 billion.
The weight limits will
begin to be posted next
week, a process that will
take four to ve months,
and remain in place for
some time even if law-
makers approve new fund-
ing in the fall session that
starts in late September,
Schoch said.
An infusion of new
money will make sure
this problem doesnt get
worse, he said. But
were not going to stop
this. This is a new poli-
cy thats reective of
the needs of the system,
something we simply
need to do.
Lists and maps of
the affected bridges are
posted on the PennDOT
website www.dot.

WEST CARROLLTON,
Ohio A man who was
declared dead when his
heart stopped beating for 45
minutes suddenly revived,
said his stunned doctors,
who cant nd an explana-
tion. The man, though,
credits his faith.
Tony Yahle was being pre-
pared by nurses to be seen
by his family Aug. 5 when
he began to show signs of
life, the doctors said. He
fully awoke at the hospital
ve days later, they said.
Yahle said at Christs
Church in Bellbrook that a
miracle happened when
he revived. He said doctors
couldnt nd any defects in
his heart.
Yahles teenage son,
Lawrence Yahle, said he
spoke to him shortly before
he revived, the newspaper
reported.
The teen said he went
from hopeless to hope in
an instant.

window washer was hos-

stories while working on
a downtown Philadelphia
high-rise.
It happened at about
2 p.m. Thursday at the
Rittenhouse Claridge
apartment building.
Investigators say the
man was washing win-
dows when he somehow
fell from the seventh oor

which is over the lobby.
Police say the man was
awake and talking as para-
medics loaded him into an

His name wasnt released.
It was not imme-
diately known what
caused the worker to
fall in the rst place.
Windowwasher hurt in fall

he was accused of irt-

Sharpton has refused
to call Saturdays march a
commemoration or a cel-
ebration. He says it is meant
to protest the continuing
issues that have stood in
the way of fullling Kings
dream.
Martins and Tills fami-
lies, he said, symbolize the
effects that laws such as
the stop-and-frisk tactics
by New York police, and
Floridas Stand Your Ground
statute have in black and
Latino communities.
To just celebrate Dr.
Kings dream would give
the false implication that
we believe his dream has
been fully achieved, and
we do not believe that,
Sharpton said. We believe
weve made a lot of prog-
ress toward his dream, but
we do not believe weve
arrived there yet.
Obama is scheduled to
speak at the Let Freedom
Ring ceremonyWednesday.
Along with their speech-
es, there will be a nation-
wide bell ringing at 3 p.m.
to mark the exact time King
delivered his I Have A
Dream speech.

march, led by people who
participated in the 1963
event and young scholars
and athletes, will make its

50years after march in D.C., has US backtracked?
SUZANNE GAMBOA
Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON Next
week, the nations rst black
president, a living symbol of
the racial progress Martin
Luther King Jr. dreamed
about, will stand near the
spot where King stood 50
years ago and say where he
believes this nation should
be headed.
Then, like King, President
Barack Obama will step
away from the hulking
Lincoln Memorial, and
return to where this nation
is now.
As civil rights activ-
ists pause to consider the
great strides toward equal-
ity that the 1963 March
on Washington helped to
spur, they also look at the
current political and racial
landscape and wonder how
much of that progress is
now being undone.
This march anniversary
comes only two months
after the Supreme Court
effectively erased a key
anti-discrimination provi-
sion of the Voting Rights
Act, unleashing a string of
restrictive voting laws and
rules in several states.
The court also raised the
bar for consideration of race
in university admissions,
and made it more difcult to
bring employment discrimi-
nation lawsuits.
There are other new
issues, such as demands for
a federal civil rights prosecu-
tion of George Zimmerman
for fatally shooting unarmed
black teen Trayvon Martin,
and abiding ones, such as
persistent unemployment
among black Americans
that runs at a signicantly
higher rate than that for
whites.
A convergence of things
have happened that have
exposed the fact that we
are in a pretty important
moment, kind of a demo-
cratic crossroads in this
country, said Sherrilyn Ill,
president of the NAACP
Legal Defense Fund.
Crossroads or not, you
have to continue the work of
pushing forward.
The observances begin
Saturday with a march from
the Lincoln Memorial to the
King Memorial, led by the
Rev. Al Sharpton and Kings
son, Martin Luther King III.
They will be joined by
the parents of Trayvon
Martin, and family mem-
bers of Emmett Till, a
14-year-old boy who was
kidnapped, beaten and shot
in the head in 1955 after

Points outlined
for hearing on
gay marriage
Pa. court
defnes
issues to be
argued
MARK SCOLFORO
Associated Press
HARRISBURG A
Pennsylvania court laid out
the issues Thursday to be
argued at a hearing in two
weeks about a suburban
Philadelphia court clerks
decision to issue marriage
licenses to same-sex cou-
ples.
The Commonwealth
Court released an order in
the case brought by the state
Health Department against
Montgomery County
Orphans Court Clerk Bruce
Hanes, limiting the argu-
ments set for Sept. 4 in
Harrisburg to ve topics.
The court wants lawyers
to focus on whether the
court has jurisdiction, given
that Hanes is a judicial of-
cer.
Other questions are
whether issuing marriage
licenses are a judicial act
and whether the constitu-
tionality of Pennsylvanias
marriage law can be raised
as a defense in the case.
Also at issue are whether
the Department of Health
has standing to sue, and if
not, the effect of Democratic
Attorney General Kathleen
Kanes delegation of defense
of the law to Republican
Gov. Tom Corbetts legal
staff.
Aspokesman for Corbetts
Ofce of General Counsel
said Thursday the court
order was under review, and
the governors lawyers will
be prepared to present their
case at the hearing.
Hanes ofce referred
questions to a county
spokesman, who declined to
comment. A court ling by
his lawyers earlier this week
argued the case should be
dismissed or transferred to
the state Supreme Court.
Hanes lawyers said
that Kanes decision to let
Corbetts lawyers defend
a separate federal lawsuit
challenging the states
same-sex marriage bandoes
not mean that they also
meet legal requirements to
launch the Commonwealth
Court case.
Without some evidence
that the attorney generals
ofce has afrmatively elect-
ed or refused not to enforce
the Marriage Law, the
Ofce of General Counsel
lacks any authority to bring
the departments petition,
Hanes lawyers argued.
As of Wednesday, Hanes
had issued 140 licenses to
same-sex couples, and 72
have recorded marriages.
Hanes began issuing the
licenses July 24, after the
U.S. Supreme Court struck
down parts of the federal
Defense of Marriage Act
and Kane said she would
not defend a state law she
considers to be unconsti-
tutional against a chal-
lenge led in federal court
July 9.
In a court ling, the
Health Department said
Hanes actions would pro-
duce chaos and said he
and other ofcials could
be subject to misdemeanor
charges.
But Hanes lawyers
responded that the Health
Department didnt describe
what harm might befall the
department.
Since the harm must be
specic and particularized
to the litigant, the depart-
ment has failed to meet its
burden to show that it has
a clear legal right to the
relief it is seeking, they
argued.
The federal lawsuit
remains in the preliminary
stages, with a scheduling
conference planned for Sept.
30.
nally the National Mall.
William Jones, author
of The March on
Washington, said that at
the time of the 1963 march,
the ideal of racial equal-
ity already was accepted by
many.
The primary goal, he said,
was to call for strong federal
enforcement of that ideal
and to push for a federal law
prohibiting private employ-
ers and unions from dis-
criminating against people
because of their race.
The current Supreme
Court also accepted the
ideal of racial equality,
Jones said, and stated the
need for it in its recent
decisions on voting rights,
university admissions and
employment discrimination
cases, but it backtracked
on the ability to enforce
that ideal.
The Economic Policy
Institute has been pro-
ducing regular reports
under the banner of The
Unnished March to
emphasize what it says is
the unnished economic
history of the march.
Demands at the march
also were made for decent
housing, adequate and
integrated education, a
federal full employment
jobs program, a national
minimum wage that would
be the equivalent of more
than $13 an hour in todays
dollars.
Totrulyhonor themarch,
we also have to recognize
the unnished demands,
said Algernon Austin, direc-
tor of race, ethnicity and the
economy program at the
Economic Policy Institute.
There clearly is far less
overt discrimination today
than there was 50 years ago,
said Gregory Acs, direc-
tor of the Urban Institutes
Income and Benets Policy
Center.
On the other hand, elimi-
nating overt discrimination
has bred insensitivity to the
impact of policies that on the
surface are said to be race-
blind, such as jailing people
for minor drug offenses or
creating barriers to voting
to make elections cleaner
and more fair, Acs said.
We still have a ways to
go, but that we can have the
conversation and continue
having the conversation,
theres clearly progress, Acs
said.

LOS ANGELES Lew
Wood, who marched with
Martin Luther King, cov-
ered John F. Kennedys
assassination and was a
news anchor for NBCs
Today show during a dis-
tinguished broadcast career
that began with the dawn of
television, has died at age
84.
Wood, who had been in
declining health, died of kid-
ney failure Wednesday at a
hospice in Riverside County,
his daughter Brigitte Wood
told The Associated Press.
He was perhaps best
known as Todays third
news anchor, succeed-
ing Frank Blair in 1975.
Although Blair had held the
job for 22 years, Wood left
after just a year, going into
public relations until retir-
ing in 2006.
He always joked that
when he left the Today
show, it was due to illness
and fatigue. They were
sick and tired of him, his
daughter said with a laugh
Thursday.

Ill take Political train wrecks for
$400, Alex.
Those who dont think Pennsylvania
Gov. Tom Corbett is in trouble.
Who is nobody?
Correct!
These are difcult (if not panicked)
days for the Republican incumbent
seeking re-election next year. The
hallmark of his legislative agenda
privatizing liquor couldnt make
it through the Republican-controlled
Legislature (not even a watered-down
version).
A major tax increase on the whole-
sale price of gasoline and diesel fuel
was euphemized when it should have
been euthanized.
Pension reform? Ha! Tick-tick-tick
continues the clock counting down the
time-bombs detonation.
A light bulb went off a few months
ago at Corbett headquarters (that after
repeated pulls on the chain yielded no
light and somebody discovered that the
bulb needed to be screwed in). Theres
been a wholesale shake-up of his staff.
Whether they are astute enough to
install tone-deaf defeaters and a bully
pulpit remains to be seen.
But just about every Democrat (and
his brother, sister, cousin and third half-
cousin twice removed by marriage) is
ready to challenge Mr. Corbett. Theres
so much blood in the water that even
former state Auditor General Jack
Wagner has visions of easy pickins and
is toying with a run.
There are whispers anew of a GOP
primary challenge (though thats about
as likely as the Legislature cutting its
size or seeing a salamander surng on
the Susquehanna).
Can this governorship be saved?
Perhaps the better question is if it
should be saved.

MALLARD FILLMORE DOONESBURY
As families help their favorite college
coeds pack to go to time-honored, tree-
lined campuses across the nation, many
of our nations protectors are doing the
same.
This back-to-school preparation is
far different from the packing our men
and women in uniformdid before their
deployment to Iraq or Afghanistan. And
while the hazards of the battleeld might
seemfar behind them, these experiences
still cast a powerful shadowover their
relationships, reactions and every other
facet of their campus experiences
especially if they returned home as a
wounded warrior with scars visible or
invisible.
A veteran of the Iraq War recently
contacted me about the barriers he
encountered in transitioning from
combat to campus. I thought these
programs were to help those who have
so generously given their lives and time
to the service of their country, but where
is the reciprocity? We as veterans
must jump through hoops to get benets
promised to us, he wrote in frustration,
after discovering that many schools were
less than helpful.
Another said he experienced a mild
formof culture shock after enrolling in
college. He encountered well-meaning
educators and administrators who had
no idea of the benets owed to him, the
academic credits earned through his mil-
itary service or the experiences he sur-
vived. After being in such a highly regi-
mented, high-pressure military world, he
had difculty navigating campus life and
relating to teens who had just graduated
from high school.
These young veterans represent some
of the more than 20,000 Pennsylvania
heroes who have returned from wars
in Iraq and Afghanistan. As they come
back in force, it is evident that the educa-
tion and military sectors need to join
forces to support student-veterans in
their re-integration to civilian and stu-
dent life.
Pennsylvania has one of the most
frequently deployed National Guard
units in the country and the third great-
est number of colleges behind only
California and NewYork. We should be
leading the charge to provide back-to-
school support and take care of those
who have taken care of us.
Our Senate committee held a hearing
last year that vividly illustrated the need
for student-veterans to receive more
veteran-specic information and support
during the transition from combat to
campus, and a central-
ized place for information
and camaraderie.
We were surprised to
hear young veterans say
howalone and alienated
they felt on college cam-
puses, and to hear admin-
istrators say that they
want to help but do not
feel equipped to do so.
Student-veterans said
a starting point lies in a
centralized, easily acces-
sible point of contact on
campus and a better understanding of
transfer policies. And if they were to be
activated again, they wanted to know
howto leave without losing tuition or
earning a black mark on a transcript.
After the hearing, we formed a work-
ing group and tapped into the experi-
ence of other states, the feedback of the
Student Veterans of America, commu-
nity colleges, private and public universi-
ties, and veterans service organizations.
We found some commonwealth colleg-
es that already have inclusive campuses.
But many colleges need to do much
more. They should offer successful aca-
demic transition programs and support
services to maximize veteran success,
along with exible administrative pro-
cesses to accommodate military mobility
requirements.
One large university, for example,
has an Ofce of Veterans Services that
gives excellent pre-admission counsel-
ing. It waives the application fee for
student-veterans and participates in the
YellowRibbon Program. The school has
an involuntary resignation process for
veterans called to active duty, a nancial
aid counselor to answer questions and
an emergency fund to support wounded
student-veterans. It offers a veteran-spe-
cic orientation program, disseminates
a monthly newsletter and promotes the
activities of the universitys Student
Veterans of America chapter.
Another state-related school just cut
the ribbon on a newVeterans Resource
Center, with dedicated space to interact
with fellowstudent-veterans and get
information about benets.
We need minimumstatewide stan-
dards and state leadership to better
coordinate campus-based efforts and
articulate programs. Legislation has
been introduced to create a one-door
system. If Pennsylvania passes this mea-
sure, we will truly make campuses more
veteran-friendly.
The Developing Opportunities
for Veterans Education program will
track veterans accessing higher educa-
tion, promote transparency in college
veterans services and foster greater
acceptance of veterans and their military
experience. Student veterans can bet-
ter meet their campus needs through a
veterans ofce or designated staff person
and coordinate services with other key
ofces, such as nancial aid, admissions,
behavioral health and housing.
The bill would require each college,
community college and university to
designate a single point of contact for
veterans, from whomthey can receive
help with admission, benets, peer
mentoring and other academic, social,
personal and nancial needs. Colleges
would also be required to promote their
veterans services and programs on
their websites and in their campus bro-
chures, post their withdrawal policies for
mobilization and deployment and credit
transfer on their websites, and track and
report the number of veterans through
the application process.
The Department of Education would
be able to certify a campus as a veteran-
supportive campus, which would mean
it offered such things as a campus survey
of student-veterans to identify needs,
a campus steering committee to share
information, student-veteran orientation
programs, peer mentoring and support
programs, outreach strategies to local
military bases, and a centrally located,
one-stop resource and student center.
As another school year commences,
it is time to remember those who have
sacriced so much for our academic
freedom and our day-to-day liberties. We
must honor our obligations to them.
While some of Pennsylvanias most
prestigious institutions are on the cut-
ting edge of military-friendly programs
and services, we need to deploy more
resources to help every soldier on every
campus.
As the Army credo goes, we will
leave no soldier behind.

COMMENTARY: LISA BAKER
THE TIMES LEADER www.timesleader.com Friday, August 23, 2013 PAGE 11A
Editorial
The enemy of my enemy is my
friend, goes the old saying. Thus we
have Arabs and Jews agreeing to sup-
port the military regime that has top-
pled Egypts democratically elected
government, which was linked to the
Muslim Brotherhood. So what should
the United States do?
Pragmatists say its probably best
to follow Saudi Arabia and Israel in
supporting Gen. Abdel Fattah al-Sisi,
because his purportedly interim mili-
tary government offers the best hope
to restore stability to yet another
Mideast nation torn by civil war.
But it is unsettling to consider tak-
ing any position that would seem to
condone the mass killings that have
occurred since President Mohamed
Morsi was deposed. A thousand
Brotherhood members and other
Morsi supporters have been killed,
including three dozen who died in
police custody over the weekend.
The $1.5 billion in aid the United
States gives Egypt annually might
have given it some leverage in the
situation. But not after Saudi Arabia,
Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates
pledged $12 billion for Sisis regime.
Meanwhile, a senior Israeli ofcial
praised Egypts three benefactors as
an axis of reason.
Uniting the strange bedfel-
lows is their mutual distrust of
the Brotherhood, which has ties to
Islamist terrorist groups. On Tuesday,
Egyptian police arrested Mohamed
Badie, the Brotherhoods spiritual
leader, who was charged with incit-
ing antimilitary protesters to commit
murder. The arrest came only hours
after a court acquitted Morsis prede-
cessor, Hosni Mubarak, of corruption
charges.
The turn of events has U.S. diplo-
mats scratching their heads over what
position to take. Secretary of State
John Kerry said three weeks ago that
the military was restoring democ-
racy after being asked to intervene
by millions of Egyptians alarmed by
Morsis pushing through a constitu-
tion with elements of Islamic sharia
law. Kerry also warned that a violent
crackdown by the military would be
unacceptable, but that is exactly what
has happened.
So how should the U.S. respond?
Our ability to inuence the outcome
in Egypt is very limited, admitted
U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel,
who tried to talk Sisi out of ousting
Morsi. But that doesnt mean this
country has no role to play. Any cut in
U.S. aid to Egypt may be supplanted
by funds from its Arab benefactors.
But relationships are built on more
than money, and the United States
and Egypt have had a long and suc-
cessful relationship.

Good Samaritan
ofsets bad news
Despite the frequency of crime,
drugs and violence in the area, good
Samaritans still appear here.
On Sunday, my daughter and her two
teenage sons went with me to Wegmans.
After we nished shopping, we went to
the car only to nd one very at tire.
I got the spare donut from the back
of the station wagon after one grandson
moved all the groceries so we could
reach it; the other grandson began to
remove the at tire. Suddenly, a young
man in a Jeep pulled up beside us, left
his wife or girlfriend in his vehicle and
got out to help us with the tire, proceed-
ing much more quickly than we had
managed.
When he nished the job, he warned
us about not going too fast with the
spare, jumped back into the Jeep and
refused to take any money for his ser-
vices.
I didnt ask his name, but I hope he
reads this letter so that I can share my
appreciation for his assistance. Yes, we
still have many good folks in this area
who go out of their way to help others!

The Huber Breaker
Preservation Society was cre-
ated with the intent of saving
the structure, but it has all but
abandoned that goal.
Instead, it is building a
Miners Memorial Park on 3.1
acres along Main Street, within
the shadow of the breaker. The
park already has a monument
that was dedicated on July 4,
and there are plans for walking
trails and kiosks explaining the
Hubers history.
Ray Clarke, society board
chairman, said the outcome
was very disturbing. After 22
years of trying to save some-
thing, and all of a sudden, its
gone. We dont have deep
pockets, so there was no way
we could save it.
Clarke lamented the area
is known for losing buildings
of historical signicance, cit-
ing the losses of the Old Fell
House tavern and the Hotel
Sterling and the deterioration
of Irem Temple and the Central
Railroad of New Jersey station
at the Market Street Square
complex, all in Wilkes-Barre.
Were losing our culture.
Well have nothing for our kids
to remind them of what the
past was like. Its sad, Clarke
said.
During its heyday, the Huber
produced 1,000 tons of coal
an hour and 7,000 tons a day,
Clarke has noted.
According to the preserva-
tion societys website, www.
huberbreaker.org, the breaker
was constructed in 1938 and
ended operations in 1976.
Attorney Ronald Santora,
representingNo. 1Contracting,
and attorney Michael G. Oleyar,
bankruptcy trustee, could not
be reached for comment.
Court records indicate Al
Roman, proprietor of No. 1
Contracting, objected to the
auction and sale of the prop-
erty.
Paselo Logistics describes
itself as a trucking company
with two trucks and two driv-
ers.
Attorney Jonathan Comitz,
representing Paselo Logistics,
said he wants to wait until the
judge signs an order making
the sale ofcial before com-
menting.
A motion objecting to the
auction and sale led by
Santora last week claims the
breaker is contaminated with
asbestos that will cost several
hundred thousand dollars to
remove, and the property is
contaminated with environ-
mental and soil hazards with a
removal cost of $840,000.
From page 1A
Breaker
Antonio Mannino yelled
to Rodgers in the middle
of the auction, asking if he
could try to unload some
of his own non-delinquent
properties to the crowd of
hungry buyers.
I cant sell stuff at these
prices, Mannino said.
While they walked out
empty-handed, some of
the regular bidders specu-
lated their competition
will regret paying so much,
particularly when they face
building code requirements
to repair their new hold-
ings. One pointed to a run-
down single family home
on New Alexander Street
in Wilkes-Barre auctioned
for $27,000 after a bidding
war.
Bids started at under
$1,000 for most properties
because back taxes and
other liens were cleared at
the nal-stage sale.
Harrisburg area bidder
Jeremy Hunter, a newcom-
er to Luzerne County auc-
tions, purchased 18 proper-
ties for a total of $211,572.
His acquisitions included
nine single-family homes,
several duplexes, a com-
mercial building on East
Columbus Avenue in
Pittston, an apartment and
former tavern property in
Hazleton, 4 acres with a
barn in Union Township, a
smaller commercial struc-
ture on Ridge Street in
Hanover Township and an
antenna tower atop a build-
ing on Public Square in
Wilkes-Barre.
Hunter, of Hunter
Property Services LLC,
said his company buys
tax-delinquent properties
throughout the state to
renovate and sell them. The
company isnt in the rental
business, he said.
We bring home owner-
ship back to towns, he
said.
House for $5,500
Eileen McMullen, a
Newport Township native
who now lives in Phoenix,
bid $5,500 after competi-
tion to secure a house in the
Glen Lyon section of the
township near the homes of
her mother and sister.
It will be my summer
home. It has a great yard,
she said of the property,
which is assessed around
$45,000.
Multiple bid cards
sprung in the air when a
Village Road home on 1.68
acres in Franklin Township
came up, pushing the pur-
chase price to $23,000.
The property is assessed at
$105,100.
The price of a 28-acre
parcel on Newhart Road
in Jackson Township shot
up to $60,000 after intense
bidding.
Freeland Solicitor Don
Karpowich fended off com-
petitors to obtain a mobile
home for $8,000 and a
vacant lot on Center Street
for $2,500 at the boroughs
request.
The mobile home on
Front Street will be torn
down to create additional
parking for the neighboring
YMCA, he said. The bor-
ough had invested $68,000
tearing down the deterio-
rating Pittman Furniture
Store on the now-vacant
Center Street lot, and of-
cials want to seek new
development for that site,
he said.
The borough has been
taking a very aggressive
and proactive approach
acquiring properties for
redevelopment and to abate
blight, Karpowich said.
Swoyersville resident
George Karosa paid
$37,000 for a townhouse
on North Welles Avenue
in Kingston assessed at
$97,200 and purchased a
single home in Swoyersville
for $19,000.
Karosa, who works in the
insurance business, said he
had his eye on other proper-
ties but backed out because
the bidding prices climbed
too high.
The 103 properties
that did not sell will go in
the repository, a dump-
ing ground of roughly 750
properties that did not sell
in past auctions. Rodgers
and county ofcials want to
more actively market these
properties to get them back
on the tax rolls.

Obama
be careful about taking a
good idea for one state and
forcing all 6,000 institutions
of higher education to do
the exact same thing, turn-
ing Washington into a sort
of national school board for
our colleges and universi-
ties, Alexander said.
For colleges and universi-
ties, millions of federal aid
dollars could be on the line
if schools are downgraded
under the government rat-
ing system. However, if
colleges line up against the
idea of tying ratings to fed-
eral aid, the proposal would
face nearly impossible
odds. Almost all members
of Congress have colleges
or universities in their dis-
tricts, and a coordinated
effort to rally students and
educators against the plan
would probably kill it quick-
ly.
This is extraordinarily
complicated stuff, and
its not clear we have the
complete data or accurate
data, said Molly Corbett
Broad, the president of
the American Council on
Education that represents
colleges and universities in

scores the degree to which
the White House is seek-
ing to keep the presidents
public agenda focused on
domestic issues, even as
international crises air in
Egypt and Syria.
As were weighing these
domestic policy positions
and foreign policy deci-
sions, the president puts
the interests of the United
States of America rst,
White House spokesman
Josh Earnest said. The
fact that we are doing this
bus tour is an indication
that the president has his
priorities straight.
The education propos-
als are part of the broader
economic agenda Obama
has been pitching across
the country this summer.
The tour is aimed at build-
ing public support for his
economic policies ahead of
scal ghts with Congress
this fall.
The rising cost of col-
lege has increasingly
become a burden for many
Americans. According to
administration gures, the
tuition costs at public, four-
year universities has tripled
over the last 30 years and
average student loan debt
stands at $26,000.
Ray Kemble knows he
probably wont be able
to tote his well-traveled
jug of discolored well
water inside
L a c k a wa n n a
College this
afternoon to
show President
Barack Obama.
The Dimock
Township resi-
dent would
rather have the
president detour
his tour bus
off Interstate
81 into the Susquehanna
County community to see
for himself what Kemble
and other residents main-
tain natural gas extraction
has done to their water
supplies.
I want him to come to
Dimock. Thats what I am
hoping for, Kemble said
Thursday.
Thats a long shot,
Kemble concedes.
But he and other gas-
drilling activists from
across the region, includ-
ing the Dallas-based
Gas Drilling Awareness
Coalition, will gather
outside the college in
hopes they can encour-
age the president to put
pressure on the federal
Environmental Protection
Agency to reopen its inves-
tigation into natural gas
drilling and drinking water
cont ami nat i on
around Dimock.
Obamas two-
day tour of New
York state and
Pennsylvania is
aimed at promot-
ing the presi-
dents education
plan, but the
growing debate
over fracking
seems to be the
number-one issue on the
minds of demonstrators
who turned out at some
New York stops includ-
ing a sizeable contingent
in Syracuse, according to
media reports and who
are expected to descend
on Scranton today as well.
Coalition member Scott
Cannon, of Plymouth,
said hundreds of protest-
ers from both states are
expected to participate in
a rally before Obamas 4:55
p.m. speech in Scranton.
While fracking is legal in
Pennsylvania, it has been
subject to a de facto ve-
year moratorium in New
York, where Democratic
Gov. Andrew Cuomo has
said it is important rst
to question whether its
economic benet is out-
weighed by potential
environmental and health
impacts. Obama, mean-
while, has been broadly
supportive of the process.
Kemble is among sever-
al drilling-region residents
who have tickets to attend
the Scranton speech and
will be inside the college
venue. Whether Obama
takes note of anti-fracking
protesters in Scranton,
Kembles message is
expected to reach the
presidents hands earlier
in the day, via the hands of
another Democratic politi-
cian.
Binghamton, N.Y.,
Mayor Matt Ryan plans
to present the president
with a letter outlining his
concerns about fracking
during a town hall meet-
ing at SUNY Binghamton
prior to Obamas stop at
Lackawanna College
supplemented by letters
from Pennsylvania and
NewYork residents, includ-
ing Kemble, a spokesman
conrmed Thursday.
The mayor is very con-
cerned about what the
industry has done to that
area, said Kyle R. Seeley,
Ryans executive assistant.
He does not want to see
another Dimock here.

Sean Doolittle gets lesson
on Gen. James Doolittle
JANIE McCAULEY
AP Baseball Writer
ALAMEDA, Calif.
Sean Doolittle tugs gently
on his bushy red beard
and soaks in a history les-
son as he strolls in silence
along the 872-foot wooden
ight deck of the USS
Hornet. He checks out old
war planes while gazing at
spectacular views of San
Francisco and the bay, then
climbs dozens of stairs to
take a turn in the ships
air boss seat.
At the USS Hornet
Museum, the Oakland
Athletics reliever hears all
about then-Lt. Col. James
Jimmy Doolittle and his
lead role in the rst attack
against the Japanese home
islands after Pearl Harbor,
a daylight barrage on April
18, 1942.
The Doolittle Raid.
Doolittle the pitcher
recently determined that
the late Gen. Doolittle is a
seventh cousin and not
an uncle far removed as he
had long thought.
They never met. Jimmy
Doolittle, an aviation pio-
neer, courageous combat
man and one of the most-
noted pilots of his time,
died Sept. 27, 1993, at age
96, one day after Seans
seventh birthday.
Im still learning about
him, said Sean Doolittle,
a history buff. Every new
thing you learn about him,
youre like, Whoa.
It was Jimmy Doolittle
who calculated that the
16 B-25 Army Air Force
Mitchell bombers could be
launched using short-eld
takeoffs less than 500
feet of runway on the air-
craft carrier from the
USS Hornet fully loaded
with bombs, drop on Japan
and have enough fuel to y
on to China in daring one-
way missions.
During his visit Monday
afternoon to the USS
Hornet Museum at Naval
Air Station Alameda, Sean
Doolittle viewed a map of
the attack sites and photos
from that history-making
day guided by Jimmy
Doolittle.
Even though it hap-
pened a long time ago, to
be standing where it hap-
pened is a little surreal,
Sean Doolittle said. I
come from a military fam-
ily and I do a lot of stuff
with the military now. Im
going to go to Walter Reed
when we go to Baltimore.
Thats one of the main
things that I get out of
it, the perspective that it
gives you on how fortunate
I am to be able to do what
I do when theres teenagers
leaving the country with
M-16s and theyre going to
the Middle East. And I get
to play baseball every day.
You start to look at things
a little bit differently and
you really appreciate the
opportunities you have
and some of these things
other people do for you
getting little or no recogni-
tion for it.
The military life indeed
hits close to home for the
pitcher, a rst-round draft
pick by the As in 2007 who
made a rapid rise through
the organization after
transforming himself from
injury-prone rst baseman
to reliable reliever in less
than a year. He is 4-5 with
a 3.67 ERA this season.

Penguins
to start
season on
the road
By TOMVENESKY
tvenesky@timesleader.com
The Wilkes-Barre/
Scranton Penguins start
their 15th season on the
road, but open at home
against a familiar foe.
The Penguins open the
2013-14 regular season
in Bridgeport on Oct. 5
before facing the Hershey
Bears for the home opener
on Oct. 12 at Mohegan
Sun Arena.
The regular season
schedule was released by
the AHL on Thursday, and
the fact that the Penguins
open on the road and then
play at home a week later
is a scenario that head
coach John Hynes is used
to and one that he said is
a benet.
Getting on the road
that rst week is good
for bonding. Its not a bad
thing, Hynes said. Then
we can get home, evalu-
ate our performance and
get in some good prac-
tices before playing an
arch rival. It makes for an
exciting week.
The Penguins will play
ve of their rst seven
games on the road, trav-
eling to Bridgeport,
Syracuse, Worcester,
Manchester and
Binghamton. The longest
road-trip of the season is a
six-game stint that begins
in Providence on Jan. 17
and ends in Hershey on
Jan. 26.
Hynes didnt think this
years schedule was exces-
sive as far as spending a

Repeat performance: Jeter back for RailRiders
Bill Tarutis | For The Times Leader
New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter reacts to a failed bunt
attempt with the Scranton/wilkes-Barre railriders against
Pawtucket at PNC Field in Moosic on Thursday night.
The Yankees captain has played in fve games for SWB and fve for NewYork
By DAVE rOSENGrANT
drosengrant@timesleader.com
MOOSIC Derek Jeter
describes his season in one word:
frustrating.
Currently on the disabled list
for the third time this season and
now rehabbing from a strained
calf injury suffered earlier this
month, Jeter made his second
appearance at PNC Field on
Thursday.
The 39-year-old Jeter reached
base three times for the
RailRiders, going 2-for-3 while
playing ve innings at shortstop
before being replace by Addison
Maruszak.
I felt good, and the most
important thing is physically to
make sure I feel good. Ive been
doing a lot of running down in
Florida before I came back here.
But there were no issues, Jeter
said as he knocked on wood
in his locker in the Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre clubhouse after
Thursdays game.
Jeters injury-riddled season
means he played his fth game
this season for Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre, equaling the number hes
played for New York all sea-
son. He has also spent time on
the disabled list with ankle and
quad injuries and has missed 122
Yankees games.
New York played game No. 127
of the season on Thursday and is
now just 3.5 games out of the
second Wild Card playoff spot.
He knows he has to get in at-
bats, but Jeter cant wait to join
his teammates, who start a series
in Tampa on Friday. But rst he
has to nish his current rehab
stint, which is expected to end
sometime this weekend because
the RailRiders are only home for
two more games today and
Saturday.
Im always anxious to get
back to New York. Its been a
very frustrating year for me. I
think I missed more games this
season due to injury than I have
my entire career combined,
Jeter said. I want to get back as
soon as possible. I understand
theres a process to it.
The Yankees captain is abso-
lutely right as the ve games
hes played in the minors are the
most hes been in since 2003,
when he played ve games for
the Trenton Thunder. That year
was the fewest amount of games
hes played in a season, seeing
action in just 119 games. This
season, he wont get in more
than 40 games for the Yankees.
Jeters only problem on the
night came in the top of the

Making a
diference
PAUL SOKOLOSKI
psokoloski@timesleader.com
MOOSIC The Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre RailRiders could have expected
the two hits and two runs Derek Jeter
produced for them offensively.
What they didnt expect was his
sloppy defensive play that gave two
runs away.
One way and then the other, Jeters
rehabilitation appear-
ance affected the
RailRiders on Thursday
during their 5-2 loss
to Pawtucket at PNC
Field.
The five-inning
stint Yankees icon
Jeter spent with the
RailRiders while trying
to recover from a Grade
1 calf strain started
well enough Thursday
night.
He promptly drilled
a double to left field during his first
at-bat in the first inning, much to the
delight of the 9,185 fans who packed
PNC Field to see him. Then the
Yankees captain cruised home on Dan
Johnsons deep double to center field,
giving the RailRiders a 1-0 lead - and a
little extra energy just by his presence
in the lineup.
I would say 100 percent, Johnson
said. Hes a true professional. Just
watching him go through his work and
the way he presents himself, its some-
thing everybody can learn from. When
hes here, you get a bigger crowd and
I think benefits everybody on this
team.
Later in the game, the RailRiders
received another boost from Jeter
when he drove in their only other run
with a single that was gloved by div-
ing Pawtucket second baseman Brock
Holt as Bobby Wilson scored from sec-
ond base.
I felt good, Jeter said.
But as much as Jeter provided to
the RailRiders, he gave away with his
glove.
His careless two-out error at short-
stop on a bouncer by Heiker Meneses
allowed two runs to score, capping
Pawtuckets three-run fourth inning
and putting the RailRiders in a four-
run hole.
The ball, a simple waist-high hop-
per, kicked off the glove the Yankees
five-time Gold Glove winner as Tony
Thomas and Jonathan Diaz scored
what proved to be Pawtuckets final
runs.
It so happened the RailRiders,
already guaranteed a losing home sea-
son, suffered their third defeat in the
last four games while their elimination
number from contention for the IL
North Division title dropped to three
games and their elimination from wild
card playoff contention dwindled to
four.
Not that the RailRiders didnt try to
run their way back into a season thats
quickly running away from them.

Just how much faster can they go this season at The
Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs? The world-record mile
by the two-year old trotting lly was indeed one for the
ages this past Wednesday night. The name of the trot-
ter who will be etched into stone for quite a while is
Cooler Schooner. Trained by Jim Campbell and reined
by his brother John, the longshot went right down the
road setting pacer-type fractions of :26.4, :54.4, 1:23.2
and just when you think she has to be a tired young-
ster and 1-9 prohibitive and deserving favorite Shake It
Cerry breathing re, Cooler had another gear, winning
as much the best in just an unbelievable mile of 1:51.3.
You would have thought there was a malfunction with
the tele-timer with the ease that this trotter won. If
she can stay healthy and develop, what a freak Cooler
Schooner can become!!

ton of time on the road.
The last couple of
years we had some one-
game trips to Norfolk,
which can be a grind, he
said. This year when we
go to Norfolk its for two
straight games, which is
better. As far as dividing
our time on the road and
at home, this schedule is a
good balance.
Over the course of
their 76-game schedule,
the Penguins will face
every team in the Eastern
Conference, includ-
ing East Division foes
38 times (19 home/19
road). The Penguins will
also skate against the
Northeast Division (7/7)
and the Atlantic Division
(7/7) 14 times each.
Wi l kes- Barre/Scranton
will play a handful of
teams from the Western
Conference, including
their rst-ever meetings
versus the Utica Comets
as they take the ice for
their inaugural season.
The Hamilton Bulldogs
also make a return to
the schedule for the rst
time since 2008-09. The
Penguins will meet 18 of
30 AHL opponents.
The Penguins will also
make a return trip to
Atlantic City two of
them, actually for a
pair of neutral site games
against the Albany Devils
on March 1 and March 23.
The games in Utica and
Atlantic City mean the
Penguins will be playing a
few games in new venues,
helping to break the rou-
tine of a 76-game season.
Its nice because some-
times the venues get very
repetitive, Hynes said.
Atlantic City is always
a nice atmosphere, and
Utica is not only a new
venue, but a new oppo-
nent.
The tradition of play-
ing at home on New Years
Eve will also continue for
the third straight year.
The Penguins will host
the Syracuse Crunch on
Dec. 31.
Goalie battle on tap
Hynes is in town pre-
paring for Wilkes-Barre/
Scrantons training camp
before he departs on
Sept. 3 for rookie camp
in Pittsburgh. As far as
a training camp preview,
Hynes did suggest there
could be a goaltending
competition this year
with netminders Jeff
Zatkoff, Peter Mannino
and Eric Hartzell.
It will be a competitive
situation between three
guys that can play. Its a
position that its impor-
tant to have that depth
and that competition
always drives them to
play better, Hynes said.
PENGUINS 2013-14 SCHEDULE
Mexico rallies past Panama on late homer
JOHN KEKIS
AP Sports Writer
SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT
One big swing for Jorge Romero
was enough for Mexico.
Romero hit a two-run homer
in the top of the seventh, and
Tijuana, Mexico, rallied past
Aguadulce, Panama, 4-2 on
Thursday night to earn a berth
in the international champion-
ship game at the Little League
World Series.
Jorge Rodriguez reached on a
bunt single before Romero con-
nected against Edgardo Rosales,
sending a drive over the wall in
center.
The rain-delayed victory set
up a rematch between Mexico
and Tokyo, Japan on Saturday.
The second game on Thursdays
slate between Westport, Conn.,
and Sammamish, Wash., for a
berth in the U.S. final against
Chula Vista, Calif., was moved
to Friday.
Mexico went ahead 2-1 in the
fifth. Brandon Montes led off
with a long home run to left-cen-
ter, and Alex Artalejo added an
RBI single.
Panama scored on a pair of
sacrifice flies by Jordan Agrazal
in the first and fifth innings.
The game was delayed for
95 minutes in the seventh, and
Panama threatened in its final at-
bat after play resumed.
Jean Mar Sanchez led off with
a single to center, and Juan
Crisp had a base hit with one
out. Agrazal was ruled safe on
a grounder to second when first
baseman Luis Corral was late
covering, but the call was over-
turned after a video replay as
Mexicos boisterous fans roared
in approval.
That put two runners in scor-
ing position, but Romero struck
out Rafael Eysseric swinging to
end it. Romero then threw his
glove hard to the ground and
was mobbed by his teammates
near the mound.
The first meeting between the
teams last Sunday was short.
Montes homered on the fifth
pitch of the game, and Ramon
Mendoza added two of Tijuanas
five home runs in a 13-0 rout
that went only four innings. The
game was stopped because of
Little Leagues 10-run rule.
Daniel Fernandez was the
starter for Panama in that one
and recorded just one out, allow-
ing two runs and two hits.
He had another shaky begin-
ning in this one, but settled
down in a hurry this time.
Fernandez walked the first
three batters he faced, and a
couple of visits by manager Luis
Gonzalez didnt seem to have
much effect. But with a team-
mate already throwing in the
bullpen, the left-hander settled
down.
Fernandez struck out Mendoza
and got Axcel Mandujano to
line to third baseman Armando
Lopez, who stepped on the
bag for a double play and was
mobbed by his teammates as he
headed to the dugout.
Mexico starter Brandon Meza
also struggled, and he wasnt so
lucky.
Meza walked two of his first
three batters. With runners at
the corners after a wild pitch,
Agrazal turned on a changeup
and hit a sacrifice fly to left field,
with Sanchez barely beating the
throw home. Crisp was doubled
off first on the play to end the
inning.
Fernandez continued to shine
in the second against the pow-
erful Tijuana team, striking out
three and walking one as his
pitch count mounted.
Panama loaded the bases
with one out in the third on two
walks and an error caused by
some heads-up baserunning by
Sanchez.
He ran in front of the short-
stop, blocking his view of a
grounder.
Meza got out of the jam by
striking out Edgardo Rosales
and retiring Tomas Sarmiento
on a hard grounder to third.
Meza struck out the side in
the fourth and Montes led off
the fifth with a tying drive over
the wall in left center. Fernandez
reached his pitch count after
retiring the next batter and
departed, and Mexico scored
again.
Saul Favela reached second
on an error and Artalejo singled
between shortstop and third for
a 2-1 lead.
Sanchez singled off Meza lead-
ing off the bottom of the fifth as
the Mexican starter also reached
his pitch count. Fernandez then
laid down a bunt and was ruled
safe at first on a close play.
Mexico challenged and the call
was overturned, eliciting groans
from the Panama fans.
It proved costly when Crisp
followed with a single up the
middle, but Panama tied it at 2
on a long sacrifice fly to center
by Agrazal.

fourth when Pawtuckets
Heiker Meneses hit a chopper
up the middle that the future
Hall of Famer couldnt handle.
He was charged with an error
that allowed two runs to
score. He rebounded on a play
later in the inning, charging a
weakly hit grounder, elding
it cleanly and ring to rst to
get the out.
I didnt catch it, Jeter said
about the error. I wish I had
an explanation for you. It was
easy enough. I just dropped
it. I really dont know. I dont
know if I took my eye off it.
Imnot sure, but that shouldnt
happen.
Jeter faced Pawtucket
knuckleballer Steven Wright
all three times up. In the rst
inning he drilled the rst pitch
he saw from the right-hander
to the gap in left-center for a
double, moved to third on a
groundout and later scored on
a double by Dan Johnson.
He reached base ground-
ing into a elders choice in
his second at-bat, beating out
the throw to rst using his
usual hustle, not showing any
effects of leg issues.
With a two-strike count in
his third appearance at the
plate, Jeter lined a shot up
the middle that brought home
Bobby Wilson. The grounder
was elded by PawSox sec-
ond baseman Brock Holt, but
he had to dive behind the base
and didnt throwto rst.

THE T.L. EXPRESS
Athrong of 9,185 fans came
to see New York Yankees reha-
bilitating star Derek Jeter, and
heimmediatelydelivered. Jeter
doubled and scored during the
rst inning of his 2-for-3 day,
playing ve innings before call-
ing it a night. However, when
Pawtucket scored ve runs in
four innings, the RailRiders
were resigned to calling it
their third loss in four games
as their playoff possibilities are
fast fading away.
RailRiders at the plate: It
was a strong rehab showing, at
least at the plate, for Yankees
captain Derek Jeter, who went
2-for-3 and accounted for both
RailRiders runs. His sharp
double put Jeter in position
to score the teams rst run
in the rst inning, and Jeters
ineld single drove in the sec-
ond Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
run. Dan Johnson added a run-
scoring double from the clean-
up spot and David Adams also
doubled for the RailRiders.
RailRiders on the mound:
Starter Graham Stoneburner
showed ashes of promise
while striking out ve, includ-
ing the side in the second
inning, over 3 2/3 innings. But
he also allowed ve runs and
the RailRiders never recov-
ered. RailRiders relievers
Cesar Cabral, Sam Demel and
Matt Daley combined to shut
out Pawtucket on two hits
over the nal 5 1/3 innings.
Attendance: 9,185
Time of Game: 2:59
Todays Game: The
RailRiders play Game 3
of a four-game series with
Pawtucket at 7:05 p.m. today
at PNC Field with Derek Jeter
in their lineup once again.
Todays Probables:
Pawtucket righthander Charlie
Haeger (4-3, 4.89 ERA) will
match up with RailRiders
righty Caleb Cotham (5-5,
5.18 ERA).
On Deck: The RailRiders
close their short four-day,
four-game homestand with
Pawtucket at 7:05 p.m.
Saturday.
Today at PNC Field: Itll
be the nal Fireworks Friday
of the season, with another
dazzling display expected to
light up the sky after the game.
On the Radio: All games
can be heard on WYCK 1340-
AM, 1400-AM and 100.7-FM.
HOWTHEY SCORED
RAILRIDERS FIRST:
Derek Jeter drilled a double
to left eld and the Yankees
captain cruised home on Dan
Johnsons double to deep cen-
ter eld. RAILRIDERS 1-0.
PAWTUCKET THIRD:
Jeremy Hazelbaker singled,
stole second base and con-
tinued to third base on an
overthrow by catcher Bobby
Wilson. Jackie Bradley Jr.
drove home Hazelbaker with
a sacrice y, then Brock
Holt bombed a solo home
run over the right eld wall.
PAWTUCKET 2-1.
PAWTUCKET FOURTH:
Mark Hamilton and Tony
Thomas both singled, then an
RBI single by Jonathan Diaz
brought Hamilton home. With
two outs, a bouncer by Heiker
Meneses kicked off the glove
of shortstop Jeter for an error
as Thomas and Diaz scored.
PAWTUCKET 5-1.
RAILRIDERS FIFTH:
Bobby Wilson was hit by a
pitch, then advanced to second
on a passed ball. He rumbled
home when Jeters single was
stopped by a diving Pawtucket
second baseman Holt, who
was caught by surprise when
Wilson scored without a
throw. PAWTUCKET 5-2.
From page 1B
RailRiders
second with two outs in
the fth inning, rumbled
around third base and all
the way home catching
Holt by surprise after he
snagged Jeters bouncing
single behind second base.
But the RailRiders
never did catch up after
Pawtucket built an early
four-run lead against start-
er Graham Stoneburner.
Jackie Bradley Jr.s sac-
rice y tied the game in
the second inning, and
Holt followed with a home
run to right eld that put
Pawtucket ahead to stay.
Then came the three-run
fourth, which included a
run-scoring single by Diaz
before Jeters error gave the
PawSox a 5-1 lead.
Jeter, who left the game
after the fth inning will
likely have another chance
to make more of an impact
today. Hes expected to
spend at least one more
rehab game playing for the
RailRiders.

How The Top 25 Teams Fared I n The Associ at ed Press Pre-season Pol l Vot i ng
ALABAMA
The Top 25 teams in TheAssociated Press preseason college football pool, with total points based on 25 points for a rst-place vote through one point for a 25th-place vote, rst-place votes, 2012 nal ranking and 2012 nal season records.
Thi ngs t o Wat ch For
AP' s Top 5 Teams
1
Alabama: Defending BCS
champions (winning back-to-
backs and 3 out of the last 4) with
a strong chance at defending the
title once again QB AJ McCar-
ron a denite Heisman hopeful is
back for his senior year to direct
a potent offensive machine in the
Tide. Players to watch are tailback
TJ Yeldon (a 1,000 yard rusher as
a freshman) and receiver Amari
Cooper.
2
Ohio State: Back in the mix
for a national championship
after coming off a 12-0 season
have 14 starters returning and
none more key than potential Heis-
man candidate QB Braxton Miller.
Players to watch are RB Jordan
Hall and defensive line (4 new
starters).
3
Oregon: With Chip Kelly gone
to the NFL, the Ducks will be
looking for leadership from new
head coach Mark Helfrich as well
as their own Heisman hopeful QB
Marcus Mariota. Players to watch
are DeAnthony Thomas, likely a
key offensive contributor as either a
running back or receiver, and fresh-
man RB Thomas Tyner, a home-
state record setter.
4
Stanford: Could this be their
year after having come peril-
ously close to title shots in recent
years? QB Kevin Hogan will gure
prominently in answering the ques-
tion after leading Stanford to wins
over four ranked teams last year,
including then top-ranked Oregon.
Players to watch are receiver Ty
Montgomery and LBs Shayne Skov
and Trent Murphy who lead a deep
and highly rated defense.
5
Georgia: Coming off of a
disappointing loss to Alabama
in the SEC title game, Georgia will
be hungry for another crack at the
national championship. Senior QB
Aaron Murray is looking to lead
his team in that chase and most
likely will break a good chunk of
the schools passing records while
attempting it. Players to watch are
tailbacks Todd Gurley and Keith
Marshall; LB Amarlo Herrera (70
tackles last season).

OBrien not about to tip hand on starting QB
By DEREK LEVARSE
dlevarse@timesleader.com
If Bill OBrien has made up his
mind on a starting quarterback,
hes keeping it to himself. For now.
The Penn State coach had said
Tuesday he planned on making a
decision between Tyler Ferguson
and Christian Hackenberg by the
end of the week.
Speaking on a teleconference on
Thursday held by MetLife Stadium
to promote the Aug. 31 opener
against Syracuse, OBrien declined
to make anything ofcial.
I dont know. It might not come
until next week, a slightly aggra-
vated OBrien said after getting a
second question about his QB situ-
ation. You know, it might come on
the rst play of the game on offense
against Syracuse.
Its my job to run the football
team, and Im always going to do
whats best for the football team. As
long as Im the head football coach
here, I will always do what is best
for our program.
OBrien has made it clear that
he plans to use both Ferguson and
Hackenberg to some extent this
season, though the starter will get
the majority of the snaps in games.
There are no plans, for example,
to use a full-blown rotation as the
Nittany Lions did for much of
2011 with Matt McGloin and Rob
Bolden under the previous coach-
ing staff.
Its possible that OBrien has
indeed picked his starter and is
holding off on making the deci-
sion public. In 2012, OBrien told
McGloin he won the job at the end
of spring practice in April but did
not announce it until early June.
Of course, this is a much differ-
ent situation at quarterback this
season. And a much tougher choice
to make. Regardless, OBrien hint-
ed Thursday that his players have
an idea about what will happen.
This has nothing to do with
indecisiveness or doing this or
doing that, OBrien said. All I
care about is that the guys in our
team meeting room know where
were headed. And our players
have a very clear direction of where
were headed on both sides of the
ball.
Projecting the rookies
OBrien said apart from
Hackenberg, tight end Adam
Breneman is also a lock to play as
a true freshman. Offensive lineman
Andrew Nelson and slot receiver
Richy Anderson are also likely to
see the eld at some point, though
likely not against Syracuse.
Defensively, I think its a little
bit of a different deal, OBrien
said. I think right now I dont see
a lot of true freshmen helping us
right away on that side of the ball.
I do see one run-on freshman
that I think can help us on special
teams in Von Walker. Maybe not
necessary in the Syracuse game, but
he could help this year. Hes come in
here and done a nice job for a young
guy and he has added some depth in
the special teams area.

MAjOR LEAGUE ROUNDUP
Aug. 23
1906 On their way to the American League
pennant, the Chicago White Sox beat the
Washington Senators 4-1 for their 19th
straight victory.
1907 Pittsburghs Howie Camnitz pitched
a five-inning, no-hitter in the second game of
a doubleheader at New York. The Pirates beat
the Giants 1-0.
1931 Lefty Grove of the Philadelphia Athlet-
ics was beaten 1-0 by Dick Coffman of the St.
Louis Browns, snapping a personal 16-game
winning streak. A misjudged fly ball by out-
fielder Jim Moore led to the winning run.
1936 In his first major-league start, 17-year-
old Bob Feller struck out 15 Browns as the
Cleveland Indians beat St. Louis 4-1. Feller
gave up six hits and allowed four walks.
1952 During a game against the Cardinals
at the Polo Grounds, the Giants Bob Elliott
complained and kicked dirt arguing over a
called strike. Umpire Augie Donatelli ejected
him from the game. Bobby Hoffman finished
the at-bat by being called out on strikes and
was also ejected by Donatelli for arguing the
call.
1982 Seattle pitcher Gaylord Perry was
ejected in the seventh inning for allegedly
throwing a spitball against the Red Sox. It was
the first ejection for Perry, who was subse-
quently suspended for 10 days.
1989 Rick Dempseys leadoff homer in the
22nd inning gave the Los Angeles Dodgers a
1-0 victory against the Montreal Expos in the
second-longest shutout in major league his-
tory.
1992 There were no hits in Clearwaters 1-0
victory over Winter Haven in the Class A Flor-
ida State League. In what appeared to be the
first professional game in 40 years without a
hit, Andy Carter and the Clearwater Phillies
beat Scott Bakkum and the Winter Haven Red
Sox. The only run scored in the seventh inning
on a pair of walks and a pair of sacrifice bunts.

Rodriguez puts end to non-baseball talk
HOWIE RUMBERG
AP Sports Writer
NEW YORK Alex Rodriguez said
Wednesday hes cutting off all non-base-
ball talk after a wild weekend of accu-
sations and retaliations on and off the
eld.
Playing while he appeals a 211-game
suspension for violating baseballs drug
agreement and labor contract, the New
York Yankees star and his eet of law-
yers and representatives sparred with
the Yankees and Major League Baseball
over his medical care and evidence in
the doping case that stems from MLBs
investigation into Biogenesis, the now-
closed Florida anti-aging clinic accused
of distributing performance-enhancing
drugs.
I think thats behind us now. Ive
shut everything down, Rodriguez said.
I want everything to be 100 percent on
baseball and thats what I want my guys
to focus on.
Rodriguez was not in the Yankees
lineup Wednesday night, a day after
playing both games of a doubleheader
against the Toronto Blue Jays. The
teams will play a day game Thursday.
I felt I couldnt play himboth tonight
and tomorrow, its probably too much,
manager Joe Girardi said.
Rodriguezs change of public-rela-
tions strategy comes after a weekend in
Boston that turned increasingly intense
and bizarre.
While the Yankees were playing
the AL East-leading Red Sox, it was
learned Rodriguez paid Florida-based
attorney Susy Ribero-Ayala in February
to represent Anthony Bosch, head of
the Biogenesis of America anti-aging
clinic. ESPN rst reported the deal.
Rodriguezs newest lawyer, Joseph
Tacopina, accused the Yankees of botch-
ing the sluggers medical care last post-
season when the three-time MVP was
benched and pinch hit for during a piti-
ful playoff performance. Rodriguez had
left hip surgery in January.
Team president Randy Levine basi-
cally dared A-Rod to le a grievance,
and the slugger said his lawyers would
ask the players union to do so.
Yankees general manager Brian
Cashman told reporters on the eld
in Boston that he felt lied to by
Rodriguez regarding his medical care,
and that he doesnt feel comfortable
talking to one of the teams most impor-
tant players because they are in a liti-
gious environment.
Finally on Monday, MLB wrote to
Tacopina, urging him to waive his cli-
ents condentiality under baseballs
Joint Drug Agreement so all the evi-
dence relating to the drug case could
be released. The letter was given
to Tacopina on the Today show.
Tacopina rejected the offer.
I think thats behind us now,
Rodriguez said. Out of respect to my
team and my manager and my coaches
we are in the middle of a pennant race.
Were playing pretty well right now. We
want to keep the focus on the eld.
Rodriguez wasnt free of controversy
on the eld, either.
In the second inning of Sundays
nationally televised game, Bostons
Ryan Dempster threw three close
pitches at Rodriguez before hitting him
with another. Manager Joe Girardi was
ejected for his outburst after Dempster
was not ejected.
The moment appeared to galvanize
the team, and the third baseman led
the charge with a long home run that
kicked off a sixth inning rally.
Dempster was suspendedTuesday for
ve games and ned $2,500. Rodriguez
would not comment on the penalty.
Rodriguez returned from hip surgery
Aug. 5, the day he was suspended by
MLB. The Yankees were swept three
straight by the lowly Chicago White
Sox in his rst three games but have
been on a tear since. Theyve won nine
of 12 to creep back into the AL wild-
card race 4 games back of the sec-
ond spot.
Rodriguez is batting .296 with two
homers and six RBIs in 15 games.
I think if we keep doing what weve
been doing the last two weeks I think
were playing with a lot of energy, a lot
of condence, (getting) a lot of contri-
butions froma lot of people, Rodriguez
said. I think we have an opportunity
thats special and we want to put the
focus on the eld.

Doolittles father, Rory,
is retired Air Force and
teaches high school
ROTC in New Jersey.
He was deployed to the
Middle East shortly after
Sept. 11. His stepmother,
April, is active duty Air
National Guard stationed
at McGuire Air Force Base
in New Jersey.
While the Hornet CV-8
was sunk at the Battle of
the Santa Cruz Islands
only six months after the
Doolittle Raid on Tokyo,
Sean Doolittle still got an
idea of how things went
on the rst ship during his
visit to USS Hornet CV-12
on historic Alameda Point
along San Francisco Bay.
It all happened right
here, Bob Fish, on
the museums Board of
Trustees, explained to the
pitcher. Doolittle was pos-
sibly the best pilot of his
day. He changed the whole
industry.
Thats crazy, Sean
Doolittle said. This is
amazing.
The original Hornet
departed for its long jour-
ney through the Pacic
from Naval Air Station
Alameda, where a tribute
to Doolittle was held last
year to commemorate the
70th anniversary of the
daring Doolittle Raid. On
Monday, Sean Doolittle
was presented a laminated
poster from the event.
Fish and other sup-
porters of the museum
are campaigning to get
the Doolittle Tokyo
Raiders awarded with a
Congressional Gold Medal.
Sean Doolittles research
project began in ear-
nest during spring train-
ing with a photo of the
Doolittle Raiders patch, a
constant reminder to Sean
Doolittle on his phone to
nally gure out at last just
how he is related to Jimmy
Doolittle.
People around the
Oakland Coliseum con-
stantly ask him about the
connection, and Doolittle
had his own interest in the
family history, too.
Whats special is that
people of his generation
are interested in history
and their ancestry and all
the accomplishments that
their relatives made, espe-
cially in times of stress,
Fish said.

THI S DATE I N BASEBALL
NEW YORK Andy
Pettitte pitched six effective
innings, Curtis Granderson
homered, and the New York
Yankees beat Toronto 5-3 on
Thursday after a 3-hour
rain delay for their 10th
straight victory against the
Blue Jays.
Eduardo Nunez hit a two-
run single, and the surging
Yankees took advantage of
a missed call to win their
fth consecutive game and
10th in 12 overall. NewYork
improved to 12-1 against
Toronto this season with
its second four-game sweep
of the Blue Jays, and moved
within 3 games of the sec-
ond AL wild-card spot.
Twins 7, Tigers 6
DETROIT Chris
Herrmanns second RBI
double of the game broke
an eighth-inning tie and
helped Minnesota to a
win over Detroit.
With two out,
Herrmann lined a ball
into the right-center
eld gap. Center elder
Austin Jackson got a bad
break on the ball, and just
missed while attempting
a shoestring catch. Doug
Bernier scored from sec-
ond to give the Twins the
lead.
Jared Burton pitched
a scoreless eighth, and
Glen Perkins got through
the middle of the Tigers
order in the ninth for his
30th save in 33 chances.
CINCINNATI Shin-
Soo Choo scored in the
eighth inning on Arizonas
fourth wild pitch of the
game, and Cincinnati raced
to an improbable win over
the Diamondbacks.
Choo scored both
Cincinnati runs, helping the
Reds to their thirdwininthe
four-game series. Cincinnati
(73-55) increased its lead
over Arizona to seven
games in the race for the
National Leagues second
wild-card playoff spot.
Dodgers 6, Marlins 0
Clayton Kershaw allowed
ve hits in eight innings
to lower his ERA to 1.72,
best in the majors, and Los
Angeles won its third game
in a row by beating Miami.
Kershaw (13-7) struck
out six and walked three.
Miamis leadoff batter
reached in ve innings
against the left-hander, but
the Marlins hit into three
double plays and went 0 for
7 with runners in scoring
position.
Nationals 5, Cubs 4
CHICAGO Denard
Span scored the go-ahead
run on pinch-hitter Chad
Tracys grounder in the 13th
inning, and Washington
beat Chicago after Stephen
Strasburg blew a three-run
lead in the ninth.
Span doubled leading off
the 13th against Michael
Bowden (1-3).
Phillies 5, Rockies 4
PHILADELPHIA
Domonic Brown hit a game-
ending RBI single to give
Philadelphia a victory over
Colorado.
The Phillies scored twice
in the eighth and ninth for
their second come-from-
behind win in as many days,
They have won four of ve
to improve to 4-3 under
interim manager Ryne
Sandberg.
Yankees win ffth straight,
climbing back into race
bogeys late in his round. He
had a 65, along with Henrik
Stenson and Ryan Palmer.
Three breakfasts, three
warm-ups, two lunches and
a bunch of birdies, which is
good, Villegas said.
Jason Day and Matt
Kuchar shot 66. Day made
two bogeys that kept a good
round from getting away
from him. His ball dropped
over the rocks and into the
water to the left of the fth
green, and he got up-and-
down from there. On his
closing hole, the par-4 ninth,
his drive went deep into the
bushes and forced him to
take a penalty drop. He got
onto the green and made
another bogey.
The rain allowed for
some low scoring at Liberty
National, which hosted The
Barclays in 2009 and pro-
duced a winning score of 9
under. The course also went
through signicant changes
to soften some of the land-
ing zones and green com-
plexes. Plus, there is virtu-
ally no rough.
Nothing allows for low
scoring quite like soft condi-
tions, however. Nearly half
of those who nished their
rounds shot in the 60s.
That group might have
included Rory McIlroy,
except for a few loose
swings.
He had three double
bogeys and still managed a
71.
His approach found
the water on No. 5. And
his tee shot on the ninth
went out of bounds.

NASCARs
Hall of Fame
announces
$1.6Mloss
CHARLOTTE, N.C.
The NASCAR Hall of Fame
lost $1.6 million in the scal
year that ended in June, but
tourism ofcials in Charlotte
say they think the museums
nancial performance is
improving.
The Charlotte Observer
reported that the halls oper-
ating loss was $900,000,
which was paid for by
reserves from the Charlotte
Regional Visitors Authority.
But the larger decit
includes so-called accrued
debt, mostly to pay off con-
struction loans and royalties
to NASCAR.
CRVAchief executive Tom
Murray said he thinks the
nancial situation with the
museum has stabilized.
The CRVA manages city
of Charlotte-owned ven-
ues such as the Convention
Center, Bojangles Coliseum
and the NASCAR Hall of
Fame.
Murray said the CRVA
overall nished in the black
by $2.8 million, even after
accounting for the halls
operating loss.
Hall attendance in its rst
year was 272,000 people, but
it fell to just under 198,000
in the second year and then
around 177,000 in the scal
year that just ended.
DILLON MOVING UP:
Ty Dillon will move from
the Camping World Truck
Series to the Nationwide
Series next season, replac-
ing older brother Austin in
Richard Childress Racings
No. 3 car.
The move has long been
expected as Austin has been
preparing to move full-time
to Sprint Cup. No spon-
sor has been announced for
Austin in Cup, and nothing
ofcial has been announced
by Childress.
CHASE IS ON: Two
weeks ago, Dale Earnhardt
Jr. was sailing along looking
like a lock to make it into
NASCARs Chase for the
championship, standing fth
in points.
Then he nished 30th
at Watkins Glen and 36th
at Michigan. Suddenly the
most popular driver in the
Sprint Cup Series is feeling
some heat.
Earnhardt has fallen to
seventh in the standings,
just 20 points ahead of
teammate Kasey Kahne,
who is 11th with three races
remaining before the eld
is set in the regular season
nale at Richmond.
Matt Kenseth, who is
sixth in points, and No.
12 Martin Truex Jr. are
separated by just 35 points.
Stadler takes early lead at soggy Barclays
JERSEY CITY, N.J.
Kevin Stadler teed off just
after breakfast and nished
right before dinner. It took
him nearly 11 hours to com-
plete a 7-under 64 at Liberty
National, his lowest score
on the PGA Tour since the
rst week of February. And
he still isnt guaranteed to
be the rst-round leader at
The Barclays.
The FedEx Cup play-
offs got off to a soggy start
Thursday with two rain
delays that lasted six hours.
It was a start-again, stop-
again day on the bank of
the Hudson River, but that
didnt stop Stadler. He ran
off three birdies early, then
returned from the second
delay and threw in four
more birdies on a soft golf
course.
Asked if it was difcult
to stay mentally prepared,
Stadler replied, Im never
really mentally prepared.
Same as usual. It was all
good.
Tiger Woods, the No. 1
player in the world and in
this playoff series, came out
of the rst delay by missing
a short birdie putt on the
par-5 13th and then rolling
in three straight birdies to
get into the mix. He cooled
slightly after the slightly lon-
ger second delay, and failed
to make birdie on any of the
par 5s in his round of 67.
Woods didnt mind the
long day. He was more con-
cerned about the next long
day on the horizon.
Only the top half of the
draw nished the round.
The later starters Ben
Crane played only two
holes were to resume the
round Friday morning and
then go straight to the sec-
ond round. That left the top
half facing extra holes on
Saturday to get the tourna-
ment caught up.
Were done, Woods
said. It was a long day, and
tomorrow will be a short
one. And then Saturday will
be pretty much a marathon.
British Open champion
Phil Mickelson and Masters
champion Adam Scott were
among those who didnt n-
ish. PGA champion Jason
Dufner had a 71, while U.S.
Open champion Justin Rose
recovered from a double
bogey on the par-5 13th for
a 68.
Camilo Villegas, who
started the season with
conditional status and is
No. 110 in the FedEx Cup
standings, ran off four
straight birdies around the
turn and was the only play-
er to reach 8 under for
now until back-to-back

Cowboys Lee reaches deal on 6-year extension
IRVING, Texas Dallas
Cowboys middle lineback-
er Sean Lee signed a six-
year contract extension
Wednesday, a deal that goes
through the 2019 season.
A story on the teams web-
site Wednesday night said
Lees deal is worth about $42
million, but could escalate as
high as $51 million depend-
ing on different incentives.
The guaranteed money is
around $16 million.
Im extremely excited. I
was blessed to be able to be
drafted by a great franchise,
Lee said in a video interview
posted along with the story.
To have an opportunity to
be here a long time and hope-
fully compete for a Super
Bowl is fantastic.
Lees agent, Mike
McCartney, posted a mes-
sage on his Twitter account
congratulating the lineback-
er.
Congrats to SEAN LEE
for agreeing to a 6 year
extension with the dallas-
cowboys, the agent tweeted
Wednesday.
Lee is going into his fourth
NFL season since being a
second-round pick from Penn
State in 2010.
The high-energy linebacker
is a key part for the Cowboys
in their switch to a 4-3 sys-
tem under new defensive
coordinator Monte Kifn.
Lee played only six games
last season, when he had 77
tackles before being side-
lined by a torn ligament in
his right big toe.
During his rookie season,
Lee played 14 games behind
Bradie James and Keith
Brooking.
He became a full-time
starter in 2011 and led the
team with 131 tackles, 52
more than any other player,
despite playing the second
half of the season with a bro-
ken left wrist protected by
a bulky cast and missing a
game because of the injury.
Without being specic,
Lee said his new contract
takes injuries into account.
Ive said I need to nd a
way to stay on this eld, and
the contract is extremely fair,
where if Im on the eld the
whole year Ill be able to get
paid, he said.
At the same point, if I do
have injuries, it protects the
Cowboys, and I think thats
fantastic, especially with the
injuries Ive dealt with in the
past.
Lee said his goal is to be
on the eld every game.
He was also hampered by
injuries during his rookie
camp and early in his rst
season, though he played 14
games without starting.
There was also a December
2010 game at Indianapolis
where Lee intercepted
Peyton Manning twice. He
returned one for a touch-
down and set up a game-win-
ning eld goal in overtime
with the other.
After signing the deal
Wednesday night, Lee said
he was already focused on
practice the next day. The
Cowboys have two preseason
games remaining, includ-
ing Saturday night at home
against Cincinnati, before
the Sept. 8 opener at home
against the New York Giants.
Its great to have it done,
he said. Being able to focus
on this year, focus on win-
ning, focus on me becoming
a better football player and
staying on the eld, making
sure Im healthy so I can help
this team win.

Williams keeping lowprofle coaching Titans D
TERESA M. WALKER
AP Sports Writer
NASHVILLE, Tenn. Gregg
Williams is still preaching aggres-
sive, physical defensive play now
that hes back in the NFL.
After being suspended for near-
ly a year for his role in the New
Orleans Saints bounty scandal,
the Titans senior assistant coach
for defense insists he only worries
about doing the right thing, not
monitoring the language he uses.
That said, he is keeping a low pro-
le in his new job, but otherwise
his approach apparently hasnt
changed.
Tennessee tackle Jurrell Casey
nds the coach just as wild and
crazy as he had heard.
Cornerback Jason McCourty
said Gregg Williams has been
stressing the Titans need to set
the tone on defense.
And Williams said its been fun
seeing the players wanting to be
aggressive.
Ive never, ever coached a play-
er that didnt want to be as aggres-
sive as possible, Williams said.
Ive always said, Dont use me
as an excuse for being not aggres-
sive. Because Im an aggressive
coach, and I want aggressive play-
ers and all the coaches here do
that.
Williams talked to reporters for
the rst time Wednesday since
training camp started July 25 and
only the second time since he
was introduced with other new
assistant coaches in February
after NFL commissioner Roger
Goodell lifted his suspension.
Other Titans assistants are avail-
able on request, but Williams said
he wants the story to be about the
players themselves and not him.
The fun part of it is I get to be
in the mix with them, Williams
said.
Saints linebacker Jonathan
Vilma still believes his former
defensive coordinator got a bum
rap that cost him the 2012 season.
But the linebacker said he never
expected Williams to change too
much because the coachs philoso-
phy works.
Hes an aggressive coach,
Vilma said recently. Hes very in
your face, very brash and he got
players to play. He was very good
at pushing that button to get you
to play, so I expect him to do the
same thing in Tennessee. I think
what hes going to have to do,
clearly, is tone down the language,
tone down the phrases, all the
cursing and stuff like that, but I
expect him to be very aggressive.
Williams has been quieter on
the eld the past month than dur-
ing his tenure as the Titans defen-
sive coordinator between 1997
and 2000. Oh, he still yells at play-
ers who dont move as fast as he
wants, and his language still can
be pretty colorful.
The Titans have worked hard at
pushing the pace in practices, try-
ing to make it easier on players in
games.
From page 1B
Braun
sample was mishandled.
While Braun took full
responsibility for his actions
and apologized to the collec-
tor of the urine sample, team-
mates and Commissioner
Bud Selig among others, the
statement still leaves several
key questions unanswered.
Among them: Who gave
Braun the PEDs and where
did they come from? What
was the exact substance in the
products? Did he know the
creamand lozenge were taint-
ed at the time he took them?
Last month Braun accepted a
65-game suspension resulting
from Major League Baseballs
investigation of the now-
closed Biogenesis of America
anti-aging clinic, which was
accused of providing banned
substances to players.
By coming forward when
I did and waiving my right
to appeal any sanctions that
were going to be imposed, I
knew I was making the cor-
rect decision and taking the
rst step in the right direc-
tion, he said. It was impor-
tant to me to begin my sus-
pension immediately to mini-
mize the burden on everyone
I had so negatively affected
my teammates, the entire
Brewers organization, the
fans and all of MLB.
Braun was the rst of 14
players disciplined this year
as a result of the Biogenesis
probe.
Twelve accepted 50-game
penalties, including a trio of
All-Stars: Texas outelder
Nelson Cruz, Detroit short-
stop Jhonny Peralta and
San Diego shortstop Everth
Cabrera.

Geno Smith to start for Jets vs. Giants
DENNISWASZAKJr.
APSports Writer
FLORHAM PARK, N.J.
Its Geno Smiths turn
to try to prove he should be
the New York Jets quarter-
back this season.
In a move that was
expected for several days,
Rex Ryan announced
Thursday that the second-
round draft pick will start
over Mark Sanchez in
the Jets preseason game
against the Giants on
Saturday night.
Well see how far we
take him into this game
this week, Ryan said.
Mark will play also. I think
(Smith) has looked good
and seems like the ankle is
obviously a lot better than
it was this past week.
Im excited to see him
play.
The rookie has worked
with the rst-team offense
all week during practice.
Smith, in a tightly con-
tested competition with
Sanchez, did not play in the
Jets last preseason game
last Saturday night against
Jacksonville because of a
sprained ankle.
Most NFL teams nor-
mally play their starters
into the third quarter of the
third preseason game, but
the Jets wanted to see how
Smiths ankle responded
this week before deciding
on a starter against the
Giants. Because Sanchez
played three quarters
against the Jaguars, the
Jets want a better look at
Smith in game action.
We want to see him
play, offensive coordina-
tor Marty Mornhinweg
said. Hopefully, hell get
the chance to turn it loose
and let his natural abilities
show up, and his natural
style. I think, and I almost
know, that hes worked so
hard that hes there men-
tally.
Smith has played just two
quarters in the preseason
after getting hurt while
rolling out on a play in the
third quarter at Detroit
nearly two weeks ago. He
was cleared for practice
early last week, but strug-
gled on the sore ankle
capped by what Ryan called
a brutal performance last
Wednesday in which Smith
was intercepted four times.
He bounced back this
week with an outstand-
ing week of practice as his
ankle also healed.
Im proud of Geno last
week pushing through it,
Mornhinweg said. This
week, it was still biting him
just a little bit, but he was
signicantly better.
Quarterbacks coach
David Lee has seen vast
improvement in Smiths
footwork along with his
command in the huddle
since training camp began.
His leadership is start-
ing to show, Lee said. Its
hard when a guy doesnt
know everything to be a
great leader. But once he
knows it, we should see
more and more leadership
from him.
Ryan said the team is
still not prepared to select
a starter for the regular-sea-
son opener against Tampa
Bay. While Jacksonville
and Philadelphia made
decisions on their starting
quarterbacks earlier this
week, Ryan refuses to put a
deadline on the Jets select-
ing one.
We did say all along that
it was going to be an equal
competition, Ryan said.
And, I think, obviously,
the fact that Geno wasnt
able to play last week, you
never really saw him when
there were live bullets, so
to speak. So, it wouldnt be
an equal competition had
we not played it out this
way.
Lee added that a strong
performance by Smith
perhaps still might not
be enough for the Jets
to select a starter for the
season. That means the
quarterback competition
could potentially go into
the nal preseason game
against Philadelphia next
Thursday.

Bush stars
in Lions
rout of
Patriots
DETROIT Reggie
Bush wasnt a factor at all
in the running game for the
Detroit Lions on Thursday
night.
But he was more than OK
as a receiver.
Bush, the multi-purpose
back brought in to provide
a spark for Detroit this sea-
son, ran for a single yard
on six carries, but he had
ve catches for 103 yards
in a 40-9 victory over New
England.
The Patriots rst-team
offense, meanwhile, which
was precise and efcient in
the rst two games of the
exhibition season, was any-
thing but in preseason game
No. 3.
Tight end Zach Sudfeld
and running backs Brandon
Bolden and Shane Vereen
lost fumbles and Tom Brady
threw an interception in
four of New Englands rst
ve possessions. The other
possession was a three-and-
out that ended with Zoltan
Meskos punt.
Brady played four series
in the rst two preseason
games combined, complet-
ing 18 of his 20 passes for
172 yards and two touch-
downs in two victories. But
in a half of work Thursday
at Ford Field, he was 16 of
24 for 185 yards and the
second-quarter interception
by Detroit cornerback Chris
Houston.
Detroit starter Matthew
Stafford also played the
entire rst half, and helped
lead Detroits rst team to
a better showing than it had
in its rst two exhibition
efforts.
The starters played seven
series in those games a
win over the Jets and a loss
in Cleveland and man-
aged only a pair of eld
goals.
They produced three
more eld goals from David
Akers against the Patriots,
but also added Staffords
9-yard touchdown toss to a
diving Tony Schefer in the
end zone that gave the Lions
a 10-0 lead 2 minutes into
the second quarter.
Akers rst eld goal, a
23-yarder, was set up by a
Bushs 67-yard catch and
run.
Stafford nished 12 of
25 for 166 yards, but did
so again without top target
Calvin Johnson.
The star wide receiver
also missed last weeks game
in Cleveland, largely as a pre-
caution. He has been both-
ered by a bruised knee.
Panthers 34, Ravens 27
BALTIMORE Ted
Ginn Jr. returned a punt 74
yards for a touchdown and
Carolinas defense scored
three times in a preseason
victory over mistake-prone
Baltimore.
Drayton Florence took an
interception 71 yards into
the end zone, Thomas Davis
scored on a 2-yard fumble
return and linebacker Luke
Kuechly picked off another of
Joe Flacco passes late in the
second quarter to set up a
54-yard eld goal by Graham
Gano for a 24-7 lead.
Carolina (2-1) had only
67 yards in offense before
halftime, yet reeled off
24 straight points after
Baltimore (2-1) scored on its
rst possession.

Chesapeake loses
four executives
Four top executives from Chesapeake
Energy have left their positions, accord-
ing to recent National Public Radio
reports.
The company that touts its status
as the second-largest natural gas pro-
duction company in North America
has signicant investments in the
Marcellus Shale region, including in
Northeastern Pennsylvania. Recent
news media attention for hefty nes
levied by the state Department of
Environmental Protection and its for-
mer president borrowing money from
investors has marred its reputation,
NPR reports.
There also have been unconrmed
reports that nearly 100 employees at
locations across the country have been
laid off. Calls by The Times Leader to
Chesapeakes Oklahoma and Sayre, Pa.,
ofces were not answered.
Economic indicators
suggest US upswing
A gauge of the U.S. economys
health rose in July, pointing to stronger
growth in the second half of the year.
The Conference Board said
Thursday that its index of leading indi-
cators increased 0.6 percent last month
to a reading of 96.0. The increase
followed no change in June and a 0.2
percent increase in May.
The solid gain suggests economic
growth is picking up after a weak start.
The economy grew at an annual rate of
1.4 percent from January through June.
Many economists expect growth could
improve to a 2.5 percent rate in the sec-
ond half of 2013.
Eight of the 10 components of the
index were positive in July. Higher
stock prices, more requests for building
permits and a decline in weekly applica-
tions for unemployment benets made
the biggest contributions. The only
measures to show decreases: average
manufacturing workweek and orders
for manufactured goods that signal
business investment plans.
Sears sales sag
during quarter
It was another bad quarter for Sears
Holdings Corp.
The beleaguered retailer, which
operates Kmart and Sears stores,
said Thursday its second-quarter loss
widened as the company continued
to struggle with weak sales and deep
discounts. The results were also hurt
by the decline in the number of stores
in operation and the lingering effects
from its spinoff of the Hometown and
Outlet brand.

that stopped trading on the
Nasdaq also hurt the stock of
the exchanges owner.
The technical problem
halted trading for about three
hours Thursday. Full trading
resumed at about 3:25 p.m.
on the Nasdaq, a major stock
exchange dominated by the
biggest names in technology.
Nasdaq OMX Group Inc.
stock which trades on the
Nasdaq fell 3.5 percent to
$30.45 late Thursday after-
noon.
The glitch and the trading
halt raise questions about
the pitfalls of computer-driv-
en stock trading and echo
other stock market snafus
from the past few years. The
ash crash in 2010 caused
the Dow Jones industrial
average to drop nearly 600
points in ve minutes.
The trading glitches can
also be costly to an exchange.
Nasdaq in May agreed to
pay a $10 million penalty to
settle federal civil charges
after regulators said its sys-
tems and decisions disrupt-
ed Facebooks initial public
stock offering. The company
set aside $62 million in the
rst quarter to reimburse
investors who lost money
due to technical glitches dur-
ing Facebooks IPO.
Thursdays disruption sent
brokers scurrying to gure
out what went wrong and
raised new questions about
the pitfalls of computer-driv-
en stock trading.
The Nasdaq shutdown
appeared to occur in an
orderly fashion and didnt
upset other parts of the stock
market.
In Washington, President
Barack Obama and Treasury
Secretary Jacob Lew were
being updated on the situ-
ation. The Securities and
Exchange Commission said
it was in close contact with
the exchanges.
The days of stock brokers
in colorful jackets, roam-
ing the oor of the stock
exchange, are fading. Now,
powerful computer programs
dominate trading by sifting
through reams of data and
executing trades in fractions
of a second. That makes
trading faster and, arguably,
more efcient. But it also
introduces more possibilities
for errors that can jolt the
entire market.

NEWYORKSherryLynne
Heller-Wells always wanted a
fairytale wedding.
So when she tied the knot
last year, she spared no detail.
Ten ower-toting bridesmaids
and seven groomsmen were
in the wedding party. And
after the ceremony, 100 guests
dined on beef tenderloin,
clams casino and a three-tier
vanilla cake.
The cost, including a re-
works show during the recep-
tion, was $45,000.
Heller-Wells wasnt some
blushing new bride, though.
When the retired registered
nurse, 64, wed her husband,
Clyde, a small-business owner
who is 65, it was her second
time at the altar.
I met my Prince Charming.
He swept me off my feet, says
the Clearwater, Fla., widow
whose rst husband died in
2003. Were hoping this will
be the last marriage. Why not
celebrate?
Only a few years ago, it was
considered in poor taste for a
bride over age 55, particularly
if she had been previously
married, to do things like
wear a fancy wedding gown,
rock out to a DJ at the recep-
tion or have the groom slip a
lacy garter belt off of her leg.
But those days are gone: Older
couples no longer are tying the
knot in subtle ways.
The trend in part is being
driven by a desire to emulate
the lavish weddings of celeb-
rities of all ages. But its also
one of the results of a new
everything goes approach
that does away with long-held
traditions and cookie-cutter
ceremonies in favor of doing
things such as replacing the
rst husband-and-wife dance
with a group re-enactment of
Michael Jacksons Thriller
video. Thats left older couples
feeling less self-conscious
about shelling out serious cash
to party like their younger
peers.
The rules are out the win-
dowwhether its what youre
wearing or the cake youre
serving, says Darcy Miller,
editorial director of Martha
Stewart Weddings, a wedding
magazine. Sixty is the new
40 and that is reected in the
wedding.
Couples age 55 and older
made up just 8 percent of last
years $53 billion wedding
business. But that number has
doubled since 2002, according
to Shane McMurray, CEO of
The Wedding Report, which
tracks spending trends in the
wedding industry.
Older couples dish out
about 10 percent to 15 per-
cent more than the cost of the
average wedding, which was
$25,656 last year, down from
the pre-recession peak in 2007
of $28,732, according to The
Wedding Report.

Wal-Mart touts made in America
ANNE DINNOCENZIO
and MIKE SCHNEIDER
Associated Press
ORLANDO, Fla. Wal-Mart Stores
Inc. is hoping for a groundswell made-
in-America movement.
The worlds largest retailer hosted its
rst two-day summit Thursday bring-
ing together retailers, suppliers and
government ofcials that it hopes will
build on its recent commitment to drive
more manufacturing in the U.S.
The event, which attracted represen-
tatives from 500 manufacturers, eight
governors, U.S. Commerce Secretary
Penny Pritzker and ofcials from three
dozen states, is occurring seven months
after the Bentonville, Ark.-based dis-
counter pledged that it planned to buy
$50 billion more U. S. made goods over
the next decade. Thats the equivalent
of just more than 10 percent of what
Wal-Mart will sell at retail this year.
But Wal-Mart has said that if other
merchants do the same, that would
mean an additional $500 billion in
American-made goods over the next
decade.
The lineup for Thursday was impres-
sive, and the campaign could serve to
boost Wal-Marts image, constantly
under attack by labor-backed groups
who have criticized the retail behemoth
as a destroyer of U.S. jobs, not a creator.
Wal-Marts CEO Mike Duke, Bill
Simon, the companys U.S division
CEO and other executives, joined other
business leaders including Jeff Immelt,
chairman and CEO of General Electric
Corp., and Kevin Toomey, president
and CEO of the Kayser-Roth Corp.
The goal of the summit is to start
connecting the dots with a dialogue
among manufacturers, retailers and
state ofcials about where opportuni-
ties are to bring more manufacturing to
the United States, Simon said.
Rising wages have erased some of
the competitive advantages China had
in manufacturing, Simon said.
We think we can map out opportu-
nities and put some systems in place
and commit to this for the long term,
Simon said. Theres nothing less than
the future of our country at stake here.
To be sure, even if Wal-Mart is suc-
cessful in getting key retailers and sup-
pliers on board, experts say it wont
rejuvenate the U.S. manufacturing
industry. But the movement could help
stem the tide of jobs owing to China
and elsewhere that has been occurring
in the last two decades.
Some experts are skeptical, pointing
out that Wal-Mart led the migration of
manufacturing jobs overseas in search
of the cheapest labor, veering away
from the principles of its late founder
Sam Walton, who espoused buying
American-made goods.
Its a very positive PR move for
the company, said Burt Flickinger
III, president of retail consultancy
Strategic Resource Group. But it took
two decades to unwind the American
manufacturing base and it will take two
decades to bring it back. He says what
will be brought back will only be a frac-
tion of business sent overseas.
