Administrators and school
board members across the
state have been spending the
last few months trying to
shore up their budgets in a
number of ways after Gov.
Tom Corbett presented a 2011-
12 budget that reduces educa-
tion fund-
ing by
about $1
billion
statewide
compared
to 2010-11
funding.
Cuts
planned
locally
In Lu-
zerne
County,
some
school
boards have
planned
cuts to kin-
dergarten and pre-school pro-
grams. Many dont intend to
replace a portion of retiring
teachers and do anticipate fur-
loughing some others who
teach subjects in the arts and
humanities.
Peter Strecker is worried his
sons teacher might not notice
a developmental issue if the
teacher is burdened with a
larger class and spends only
half a day with
his son.
Helen Davis
has the same
fear for her
daughter, who,
like Streckers
son, was set to
start kindergar-
ten at Rice Ele-
mentary
School in the
fall.
Both parents
plan to enroll
their children
in private
schools if the
Crestwood
School Board
decides to go ahead with plans
to switch from full-day to half-
day kindergarten as one of sev-
eral measures to deal with re-
duced educational subsidies
from the state.
I am not about to sacrifice
my daughters education, said
Davis, 34, of Wright Township.

will be fireworks, concerts and

But the downtown park along

ardent supporters agree its still
underused.
Not many places have a park

Question: Can a business that
is 104 years old define itself as
cool, hip and new? You can be
cool and hip at 104, no doubt
about it, but new?
Answer: Goodbye, Wilkes-
Barre Publishing Company; hel-
lo, Impressions Media.
We have a new name, and its
not just a clever moniker. It
breaks the sound barrier,
screaming, We are now. We are
the 21st century in the media
world!
"The Wilkes-Barre Publishing
Company, which owns The
Times Leader along with many
other publications, digital prod-
ucts and related businesses, will
now operate as Impressions
Media," said Richard L. Connor,
editor and publisher of The
Times Leader and chief execu-
tive officer of Impressions
Media. If you have a message to
deliver, an audience to reach or a
product you need to sell, we are
now your one-stop shopping so-
lution. We will meet our custom-
ers needs for media in this mar-
ket.
The Wilkes-Barre Publishing
Companys proud history and
long-standing traditions will not
be abandoned, Connor empha-
sized.
"We are not truly saying good-
bye to the name or its signifi-
cance in the community," he
said. Like a favorite piece of
clothing, the former name will
stay in the house but occupy a
different spot in the closet.
Prashant Shitut, president of
Impressions Media, said, It is
only appropriate that our multi-
media offerings are reflected in
our name. As our strong tradi-
tional media brands continue to
be vibrant, we have now em-
barked on a series of new digital
media offerings that will only en-

Rain or not, an enthusiastic
crowd gathered at Kirby Park
on Saturday to participate in
the inaugural Breathe Deep
Northeastern Pennsylvania
Lung Walk, sponsored by
LUNGevity, the nations
largest organization dedicat-
ed to research for the early
detection, treatment and
cure of lung cancer.
Were expected a fine turn-
out today, said event orga-
nizer Pauline Makowski. We
have 137 pre-registered and
were anticipating a number
of day-of registrations, as
well.
My husband died of lung
cancer in June of 2009 and I
just felt I had to make a dif-
ference in some way, contin-
ued Makowski. So I did
some research and decided
the LUNGevity Foundation
was the group I wanted to
work with.
The course for the event
led the blue T-shirt clad walk-
ers through Kingston and
Wilkes-Barre and back to the
pavilion at Kirby Park where
refreshments were served.
Entertainment for the
Lung Walk was provided by
recording artists Three Imag-
inary Boys, from Wilkes-
Barre.
Paulines husband, Allan
Makowski, was a dear friend
and fishing buddy, said Sam
Greenberg of Kingston. I see
this as a great opportunity to
make the community aware
of lung cancer research and
to remember those who have
died from it.
According to the Centers
for Disease Control and Pre-
vention, more people in the
United States die from lung
cancer than any other type of
cancer. This is true for both
men and women.
It looks like the rains
clearing, so I plan to enjoy
the day with my family,
smiled Traci Weinstock from
Old Forge. My fathers on
the planning committee with
Pauline, and I wanted to sup-
port them today in any way I
could.

WILKES-BARRE Despite a
request to delay the closing of Sa-
cred Heart of Jesus Church until
a pending appeal to the Vatican is
heard, the Diocese of Scranton
will proceed with its plan to have
the last Mass celebrated in the
church next Sunday.
Parishioners of the church on
North Main Street made a public
plea to Bishop Joseph Bambera
in a letter that appears in todays
Times Leader.
But the diocese, which was
provided a copy of the letter by
the newspaper on Saturday, indi-
cated it will stick to its decision.
Sacred Heart, which also in-
cludes St. John the Evangelist in
its parish, was among those list-
ed for closing in the 2009 restruc-
turing plan begun by former
Bishop Joseph Martino.
The Sacred Heart Wilkes-
Barre Foundation, which came
into existence before the restruc-
turing was announced, appealed
the closing to the Vaticans Con-
gregation for Clergy.
BishopBambera, whosucceed-
edBishopMartino, saidhewould
accept the restructuring plans,
but also allowed the appeals to
the Vatican to proceed.
In February, the dioceses deci-
sion to close Sacred Heart was
upheld, prompting the founda-
tion to mount another appeal,
this time to the Apostolic Signat-
ura, the highest court of the
church.
The diocese set June 19 for the
closing of Sacred Heart and an-
nounced the formation of St.
Andre Bessette parish.
The new parish will be made
up of members of Sacred Heart,
Holy Saviour Church on Hillard
Street and St. Stanislaus Kostka
on North Main Street.
In a prepared statement, Bish-
op Bambera said many of the
members of the affected parishes
expressed a desire to move for-
ward and a hope that they will
soon have a peaceful environ-
ment where they can worship
and pray together.

ON THE TRAIL OF FUN
PETE G. WILCOX/THE TIMES LEADER
H
ikers and bikers hit the trail at the Greater Hazleton
Area Civic Partnerships Hike & Bike on Saturday. The
event began at the Hazleton Rails to Trails trailhead.
WILKES-BARRE City po-
lice reported the following:
Police charged Shawn Bu-
blo, 25, of Edwardsville, with
multiple traffic violations follow-
ing an apparent motor vehicle
accident Saturday.
Police said they found several
downed utility poles and ex-
ploding transformers near a
parked Chevrolet SUV with
heavy front-end damage at the
corner of North Penn Avenue
and Butler Street at 1:03 a.m.
Saturday.
Police identified Bublo as the
driver of the SUV.
Police said they smelled alco-
hol on Bublos breath and found
empty bottles of Twisted Tea, an
alcoholic beverage, in the SUV.
Police arrested Bublo on suspi-
cion of driving under the influ-
ence, but a breath test found his
blood alcohol content to be
below the legal limit of .08 per-
cent, leading police to drop the
DUI charge.
Reginald Taylor, 29, of
South Grant Street was charged
with disorderly conduct Friday
afternoon for allegedly refusing
to comply with police orders to
stop yelling in a public place on
Carey Avenue.
Police cited Steven Dorsey,
32, of Edwardsville, and Rebec-
ca Dorsey, 36, of Hanover Vil-

Get a free ride Thursday
Riding on Luzerne County Trans-
portation Authority buses will be free
all day on Thursday for national Dump
the Pump Day.
Started in 2006 when gas prices were
$3 per gallon, Dump the Pump Day is
an effort to encourage people to ride
public transportation and save money
instead of driving a car.
If you leave your car behind to take
the LCTA transportation network, you
will be helping to reduce Americas
dependence on oil and aid in the com-
bat of climate change, said Stanley
Strelish, LCTA executive director.
Try us; you may like the quiet, com-
fortable, relaxing ride in one of our
new hybrid buses, decide to use
(LCTA) more often, leaving your car
home, he said.

HANOVER TWP. If you recycle it,
they will come.
Luzerne County Recycling Coordina-
tor Elizabeth DeNardi found that out
again this year at the countys annual
electronics recycling collection held on
Saturday at the Hanover Area Junior/
Senior High School in Hanover Town-
ship.
DeNardi estimated about 2,500 resi-
dents of Luzerne County paraded onto
the school grounds in cars, pickup
trucks, and sport utility vehicles to de-
liver an estimated 3,000 televisions
and thousands of other assorted gad-
gets, including computers, answering
machines, camcorders, copiers, micro-
waves, telephones, radios and more.
She said the county hoped
to fill 18 tractor-trailers
with this assortment of no
longer useful hardware.
"We do this for them,"
DeNardi said. "We want
to say thank you to every-
one for participating. The
people should realize how
much they are saving the
environment. They are
not contaminating the
earth with this material."
DeNardi, who has been involved
with the recycling since the beginning,
said the response each year tops the
previous year. She was confident Sat-
urdays totals would surmount last
years.
Since 2003, more than 3.1 million
pounds of electronic
equipment has been
collected, she said.
And 95 percent of it is
recycled, she said.
Eco International, a
recycler from Vestal,
N.Y., takes the tubes,
glass, scrap metal and
other miscellaneous
parts and markets
them to manufacturers
who use them in the
making of new products, according to
DeNardi. Doing so, the county works
to "prevent household waste from be-
ing placed in landfills or being illegally
dumped as litter," she
Getting rid of junk isnt the only reason Luzerne Countys recycling is booming

Luzerne County government is look-
ing for seven chronically homeless peo-
ple who want a place to live, and the fed-
eral government will pay the rent for up
to five years.
The funding comes from a $370,140
grant the county received last year as
part of the federal governments push to
get people into permanent housing.
The program, known as Shelter Plus
Care, is designed to provide long-term
housing and supportive services for
hard-to-reach homeless people with dis-
abilities, such as mental illnesses or on-
going problems with
drugs and/or alcohol,
according to the feder-
al government.
In recent weeks, the
plight of the Wyoming
Valley homeless has re-
ceived more public at-
tention with the death
of two men in an aban-
doned South Wilkes-
Barre house that
caught fire.
Inaddition, REACH,
a drop-in center for the
homeless operating
out of St. Stephens
Episcopal Church in
Wilkes-Barre, is clos-
ing in July.
The government
generally defines a
chronically homeless person as a dis-
abledpersonwhohas either beencontin-
uously homeless for a year or more or
has had at least four episodes of home-
lessness in the past three years.
County Human Services fiscal officer
Mary Dysleski said three homeless indi-
viduals are in apartments funded by the
program, and a fourth placement is in
the works. The funding was intended to
assist 11 individuals.
Signing up additional participants has
been a challenge because the county
must obtain some documentation that
candidates meet the chronically home-
less definition, Dysleski said.
Its easy if they stay at a shelter be-
cause theyre in contact with the shelter
every day, but how do you verify that
someone was living under a bridge or on
the streets? Dysleski said.
Representatives of shelters that ser-
vice the county are ona panel that meets
monthly to monitor program participa-
nts, Dysleski said. Involving homeless
shelters encourages referrals to the pro-
gram, Dysleski said.

portunity (CEO), which administers the

concerned with setting a positive tone
for the event.
Every year we come out, we have
some food, we dance and we have fun,
she said.

KABUL, AFGHANISTAN
Deadly month for civilians
A
t least 21 people were killed in a
series of attacks across Afghanistan
on Saturday as a U.N. agency an-
nounced that May had been the dead-
liest month for Afghan civilians since
2007.
At least 15 civilians, including chil-
dren and women, were killed when
their crowded minivan struck a land-
mine in the restive province of Kanda-
har.
The dead were eight children, four
women and three men; another woman
was injured.
Kandahar is a southern province
thats known as the birthplace of the
Taliban movement. It shares a border
with the Baluchistan province of neigh-
boring Pakistan, which is believed to
be the safe haven for the Taliban leader
Mulllah Omar and other senior com-
manders.
SPRINGERVILLE, ARIZ.
Wildfires pose health threat
An eye-stinging haze of smoke spew-
ing from a gigantic wildfire in eastern
Arizona added a potentially serious
public health threat to the conflagra-
tion on Saturday as firefighters moved
to counter spot fires erupting across
the state line in New Mexico.
The 640-square-mile blaze remained
largely uncontained and firefighters
worried that a predicted return of
gusty southwesterly winds in the after-
noon would cause it to grow even
larger.
We expect the winds to be testing a
lot of our lines out there, fire spo-
keswoman Karen Takai said.
The fire began spotting across the
state line Friday night and 150 addi-
tional firefighters and several fire en-
gines were sent to bolster forces al-
ready waiting in New Mexico, officials
said.
Concern about hazardous levels of
air pollution spread beyond northeast-
ern Arizona.
PESHAWAR, PAKISTAN
Two explosions kill 25
Two explosions went off minutes
apart in the northwest Pakistani city of
Peshawar Sunday, killing 25 people and
injuring nearly 100, officials said.
The blasts occurred just after mid-
night in an area of the city that is home
to political offices and army housing.
The first explosion was relatively
small and drew police and rescue work-
ers to the site, said Dost Mohammed, a
senior local police official. A large
explosion rocked the area a few min-
utes later, causing the fatalities and
injuring 95 people, said Mohammed
Farooq, a doctor at a local hospital.
The attack took place as CIA Direc-
tor Leon Panetta and Afghan President
Hamid Karzai were in Islamabad, some
95 miles (150 kilometers) from Pesha-
war, to speak separately with senior
Pakistani officials about intelligence
sharing and efforts to reconcile with
the Taliban.
TOKYO
Rally against nuclear power
Protesters held mass demonstrations
against nuclear power across Japan on
Saturday, the three-month anniversary
of the powerful earthquake and tsuna-
mi that killed over 23,000 and trig-
gered one of the worlds worst nuclear
disasters.
Streets in parts of Tokyo were com-
pletely jammed with thousands of
chanting protesters, paralyzing sec-
tions of the city. Some marchers called
for the countrys nuclear plants to be
shut down immediately and for stricter
radiation tests by the government.
The magnitude-9 earthquake that hit
March 11 off Japans northeast coast
caused a massive tsunami that devas-
tated the coastline.

WASHINGTONUnder pressure to
resign in a sexting scandal, Rep. Antho-
ny Weiner announced Saturday he was
entering professional treatment at an
undisclosed location and requested a
leave of absence from Congress.
An aide for the embattled New York
lawmaker made the disclosure in a
statement shortly after several Demo-
cratic party leaders demanded he quit
for exchanging messages and photos
ranging from sexually suggestive to ex-
plicit with several women online.
This sordid affair has become an un-
acceptable distraction for Representa-
tive Weiner, his family, his constituents
and the House, Rep. Debbie Wasser-
man Schultz, the party chairwoman,
said in a written statement calling for
the 46-year-old married lawmaker law-
maker to step down.
The House Democratic leader, Rep.
Nancy Pelosi of California, said Weiner
has the love of his family, the confi-
dence of his constituents and the recog-
nition that he needs help. I urge Con-
gressmanWeiner to seek that helpwith-
out the pressures of being a member of
Congress.
Weiners spokeswoman, Risa Heller,
said in the statement that the congress-
man departed during the morning to
seek professional treatment to focus on
becoming a better husband and health-
ier person. In light of that, he will re-
quest a short leave of absence from the
House of Representatives so that he can
get evaluated and map out a course of
treatment to make himself well.
The statement did not say where he
would receive treatment, or what type
was involved. Others familiar with his
plans said he had left New York by air.
Also joining in calls for Weiner to quit
was Rep. Steve Israel, D-N.Y, chairman
of the Democratic Congressional Cam-
paign Committee and a member of the
partys leadership.
Pelosi also spoke with Weiner during
the day to let him know that she, too,
would be joining the calls for resigna-
tion.
The developments occurred one day
after Weiner acknowledged he had ex-
changed online messages with a 17-
year-old girl in Delaware. He said noth-
ing improper had passed between the
two of them.

WASHINGTON The
strong-smelling chemical formal-
dehyde causes cancer, while sty-
rene, a second industrial chem-
ical thats used worldwide in the
manufacture of fiberglass and
food containers, may cause can-
cer, the National Institutes of
Health says.
The NIH said Friday that peo-
ple with higher measures of ex-
posure to formaldehyde are at in-
creased risk for certain types of
rare cancers, including those af-
fecting the upper part of the
throat behind the nose.
The chemical is widely used to
make resins for household items,
including paper product coat-
ings, plastics and textile finishes.
It also is commonly used as a pre-
servative in medical laboratories,
mortuaries and consumer prod-
ucts including some hair
straightening products.
The government says styrene
is a component of tobacco
smoke, andNIHsays the greatest
exposure to the chemical is
through cigarette smoking.
The two chemicals were
among eight added to the gov-
ernments list submitted to Con-
gress of chemicals and biological
agents that may put people at in-
creased risk of for cancer.
Also on the list as a known car-
cinogen is a botanical agent
called aristolochic acids, shown
to cause high rates of bladder or
upper urinary tract cancer inpeo-
ple with kidney or renal disease.
Chemicals
added to
cancer
risk list
Formaldehyde in household
items and styrene used for
food containers have risks.
A senior Obama administration official,
speakingonconditionof anonymity todis-
cuss intelligence matters, said Mo-
hammed was killed in a shootout with So-
mali government forces.
This is a big win for global counterter-
rorism efforts, the official said.
NAIROBI, Kenya The al-Qaida oper-
ative behind the1998 U.S. Embassy bomb-
ings in Kenya and Tanzania has been
killed, a Somali official said Saturday.
Somali officials have determined that a
man killed by security forces on Tuesday
was Fazul Abdullah Mohammed, said a
spokesman for Somalias minister of infor-
mation, Abdifatah Abdinur.
Weve compared the pictures of the
body to his old pictures, he said. They
arethesame. It is confirmed. Heis theman
and he is dead. The man who died is Fazul
Abdullah.
Mohammed, a native of the Comoros Is-
lands, was on the FBIs most-wanted ter-
rorist list and had a $5 million bounty on
his head for allegedly planning the Aug. 7,
1998, embassybombings. The blasts killed
224 people in Nairobi, Kenya and Dar es
Salaam, Tanzania combined. Most of the
dead were Kenyans. Twelve Americans al-
so died.
We commend the good work by the
(Somali government forces), the official
added. This is a very big deal. Fazuls
death removes one of the terrorist groups
most experienced operational planners in
East Africa and has almost certainly set
back operations.

JUNEAU, AlaskaMuchof thecoun-
try was taken by surprise when Sarah
Palin became the Republican vice presi-
dential candidate in August 2008, but
newly released emails show the little-
known Alaska governor was angling for
theslot monthsbeforeSen. JohnMcCain
asked her to join himon the GOP ticket.
Earlier that summer, Palin and her
staff began pushing to find a larger audi-
ence for the governor, nudging the
McCain campaign to notice her.
Palin and her staff talked excitedly on
June 19 about plans to repeal Alaskas
fuel tax. Ivy Frye, a longtime Palin aide
andfriend, saidshewouldsenddetails to
McCainstaffers whentheybecame avail-
able.
Theyre going to love it! Frye wrote.
More vp talk is never a bad thing,
whether youre considering vp or not. I
still say President Palin sounds better
tho ... "
The emails showed that supporters
across the country began suggesting to
Palinthat she wouldbe a goodvice presi-
dential candidate as early as April. That
attention increased after she appeared
on conservative commentator Glenn
Becks HeadlineNews showonCNNin
early June.

HARRISBURG When Gov.
Tom Corbett chose to cut Penn-
sylvanias way out of a projected
multibillion-dollar budget defi-
cit, he started by taking a dispro-
portionate chunk of state aid
away from the states poorest
school districts.
Why not approach it by taking
a disproportionate amount of
state aid away from the districts
that can best afford it the
wealthiest?
Thats a great
question, said
Jim Buckheit of
the Pennsylvania
Association of
School Adminis-
trators.
At this point,
top lawmakers
appear to be in
the final weeks of
assembling a
budget that will
deliver a heavy
reductioninstate
aid to public
schools, and they are unlikely to
reverse the approach to cuts in
state aid originally taken by Cor-
bett.
Corbett, a Republican, pro-
posed slashing more than $1 bil-
lion, or about 15 percent of fund-
ing for public school instruction
in the 2011-12 fiscal year that be-
gins July1. Thefiguredoes not in-
clude pension payments for pub-
lic school employees that are set
torise bymore than$320million.
The proposed cuts fell most
heavily on the poorest districts
because they receive the lions
share of state aid, Corbetts edu-
cation secretary, Ron Tomalis,
said. In fact, some districts stand
to lose more money than would
even be sent to other, wealthier
districts, he said.
Buckheit and others suggest
that it would be fairer to ask
school districts to absorb a uni-
form per-student reduction in
state aid, rather thanthe wilddis-
parity in per-student reductions
that resulted from the budget
plan Corbett proposed in March.
A GOP budget bill that passed
the House last monthwouldsend
about $240 million more than
Corbetts budget to
public schools, al-
though some of
that extra money
would go to wealth-
ier districts such as
North Penn in
Montgomery
County, whose sub-
sidy would growby
nearly $3 million.
Thats a bigger
boost than the
Houses budget
plan would deliver
to Harrisburg, Al-
lentown, Erie and
some other school districts with
higher poverty rates that are
planning layoffs.
The Houses budget plan is
now under consideration in the
Senate, where the Republican
majority is working on it.
Senate Majority Leader Do-
minic Pileggi, R-Delaware,
agreed that some poorer school
districts still face disproportion-
ate reductions and said Republi-
can senators will press for more
money for them when they meet
inthe comingdays inclosed-door
talks with their fellow Republi-
cans in the House and governors
office.
That will be an element of dis-
cussion that we have with the
House and the governor, Pileggi
said.
Pileggi would not say how
much more money Senate Re-
publicans will seek.
Poorer school districts typical-
ly get a larger portion of their
budgets from the state than
wealthier districts based on a for-
mula developed by the Legisla-
ture that determines how the
money is divided among school
districts, The formula is de-
signed to help districts that sim-
ply cannot raise as much fromlo-
cal taxes and that have higher
poverty rates.
But the distribution of money
also must meet the political test
of legislative approval. That
means that some school districts
get more money than they other-
wise would under the formula
a total of nearly $400 million ex-
tra over the past decade that the
Philadelphia-based nonprofit
Education Law Center of Penn-
sylvania says would have gone to
poorer or needier districts.
The issue is complicated, said
Senate Appropriations Commit-
tee Chairman Jake Corman, R-
Centre.
A number of legislators who
represent wealthier, growingsub-
urban school districts are unhap-
py every year because the
amount of state aid they get,
while increasing in total dollars,
is shrinkingas apercentageof the
school districts budget. As a re-
sult, it would be tough for those
legislators and school districts to
accept disproportionately sized
cuts in state aid, Corman said.
The school funding formula is
very difficult, he said. I dont
know that anyone particularly
likes it, but nobody knows howto
change it to make it better.

ROME Lady Gaga sang a
few bars of her smash hit Born
This Way and demanded the
end of discrimination against
gays as she proclaimed herself a
child of diversity at a gay pride
rally Saturday night in the an-
cient Circus Maximus.
The star, whose Born This
Way album recently topped 1
million sales in a week, delighted
tens of thousands of people at a
brief concert in the vast field
where the ancient Romanmasses
would gather for spectacles.
Wearing a green wig, she
played the piano and sang a few
numbers. But she devoted much
of her appearance after an annual
European gay pride parade to de-
nounce intolerance and discrimi-
nation against gays and transgen-
der people. Amongthe places she
cited was the Middle East, Po-
land, Russia and Lithuania.
Lady Gaga told the crowd she
is often asked How gay are you,
Lady Gaga?
My answer is: I am a child of
diversity.
She also proudly cited her Ital-
ian roots saying she was really
namedStefania Giovanna Angeli-
na Germanotta.
And she told fans her costume
a sleek black topwithone bare
shoulder and billowing plaid
skirt were fromthe last collec-
tion of Gianni Versace.
Decrying intolerance of homo-
sexuality, Lady Gaga lamented
that young people who are gay
are susceptible to suicide, self-
loathing, isolation.
Many in the crowd had partici-
pated in an hours-long parade of
colorful floats and brightly cos-
tumed marchers through Romes
historic center before the rally.
The events were part of the an-
nual Europride day to encourage
gay rights on the continent.
Lady Gaga praised her audi-
ence for its great courage which
she says inspires her.
Europride organizers hope the
event will draw attention to dis-
crimination gays face in many
parts of the world. The U.S. am-
bassador was among those who
invited Lady Gaga to Rome.
I am so hon-
ored to be
here, Lady Ga-
ga said, recall-
ing how, earlier
in the day, she
lay nakedinsilk
sheets in her
hotel room and
enjoyed the din of adoring fans
and packs of photographers in
the street below.
Organizers said Rome was a
significant choice of venue, since
it is home to the Vatican, which
staunchly opposes legislation
that would recognize same-sex
marriage or adoption by gay cou-
ples.

WILKES-BARRE On a re-
cent visit to the city, Vincent
Cotrones brother-in-law wanted
to see the River Common park.
Cotrone is director of the an-
nual RiverFest celebration, so
he gladly showed the venue that
is home to the 12th annual
event.
He was absolutely amazed,
Cotrone said of his brother-in-
laws reaction. He said L.A. has
nothing like this. Hes been gone
from this area for 25 years, and
he couldnt believe this park was
in Wilkes-Barre.
Cotrone, 45, said sometimes
it takes an outsiders perception
for hometowners to appre-
ciate what they have.
Maybe a Dragon Boat Race
will make people notice. Each of
the long boats is powered by a
team of 15 to 20 paddlers.
Teams are being recruited for
friendly competition. The event
has become very popular else-
where and Cotrone said a Drag-
on Boat Festival a separate
event is planned for 2012,
probably in September when
the college students are back in
school.
This will be a demonstration
to Wyoming Valley and its peo-
ple that we can do this, Co-
trone said. Next year we expect
48 boats to enter.
Cotrone talked about River-
Fest and how it has changed in
12 years.
Were still evolving, Cotrone
said. But when we moved to
the River Common we ramped
things up for RiverFest and it
got bigger. Were still learning
how to program both sides of
the river during the course of
the three days.
Cotrone, an urban forester
with Penn State Cooperative Ex-
tension, said the River Common
gives RiverFest the perfect
spot. He said for events like the
Dragon Boat Race, the vantage
points for viewing are plentiful.
Cotrone said the mission of
RiverFest remains constant to
get people to use the river and
understand it and value it as a
resource and not just look at it
as a potential flood menace.
Karl Borton Jr., director of
River Common Programming
and Outreach, said the Susque-
hanna River offers boating, fish-
ing and, in some parts, swim-
ming.
Its an asset that we often
overlook and its something that
we should embrace and cele-
brate, Borton said. RiverFest
is just one way that we are high-
lighting the river and its impor-
tance to our region.
RiverFest will be held Fathers
Day Weekend June 17, 18, 19
and is expected to attract thou-
sands of people to celebrate, as
Cotrone says, the Susquehanna
River. Activities available in-
clude: kayaking, environmental
and educational workshops, live
music and handcrafted artistry.
Performers this year include
Eddie Day and the Star Fires,
MiZ, George Wesley, Don Shap-
pelle and the Pick-Ups, K8, Kriki
and Without Walls Dance Com-
pany.
Cotrone is passionate about
RiverFest. He exudes confi-
dence and joy when he talks of
the three-day event and how it
continues to grow. Cotrone said
there will be more activities and
more food vendors this year.
Food will be available along Riv-
er Street across from Millenni-
um Circle and in Nesbitt Park
near the kayak launch.
I urge everyone to take a kay-
ak trip, Cotrone said. We have
trips of varying distances
shorter ones for first-time kay-
akers.
Cotrone said RiverFest offers
something for everyone.
And I hope everyone comes
out, he said.
The dragons are coming boats, that is

personal interest in getting the
recycle bins placed on the river-
front park and on Public Square
and has met with city officials
to convince them of the need.
She said it didnt take her
long to notice the lack of public
recycle bins in the city. She
thought if they were installed,
the city would be cleaner and
more appealing, especially in
the public recreation areas.
City Administrative Coor-
dinator Drew McLaughlin said
officials will meet with Hughes
and other PennFuture repre-
sentatives to discuss the pro-
posal.
The city has been looking at
placing recycling containers on
Public Square and River Com-
mon due to the increased activ-
ity coming up, McLaughlin
said. We have to iron out a few
issues financing the contain-
ers and deciding who will han-
dle them and the frequency of
pickup.
McLaughlin said planning is
under way and the city defi-
nitely wants to get this done.
He said the city hasnt gotten
any cost estimates as yet for the
containers.
Hughes said she has muddled
through the process of finding
the right people to propose her
idea to.
Hughes said she identified
the main issue as the lack of
funding to provide the recepta-
cles and she intends to discuss
the issue at a meeting this
week.
If money was raised alterna-
tively, would the city have the
workforce and resources to pick
up and maintain the additional
bins? she asked.
Hughes said there are several
local groups, businesses and
organizations that are willing to
help make the project happen.
She said if the bins are pur-
chased, there may be a need for
private investment of some
kind. She said PennFuture feels
that working with the local
groups and businesses in a joint
campaigning effort to fund-raise
money and also raise awareness
throughout the community is
important.
Recycling should be a stan-
dard behavior for everyone in
our city and with a community-
led approach, we could reach
our goal, Hughes said.
CLARK VAN ORDEN/THE TIMES LEADER
Catherine Hughes is spearheading a project to put recycling containers in the parks and throughout the citys downtown. While there
currently are trash cans, there are no recycling containers.

JimSchilling, vice president of
marketing and community rela-
tions for Wyoming Valley Health
Care System, said, Objectively
and sincerely, The Times Leader
is a great newspaper. They were
among the first to introduce on-
line as a marketing medium and
weve been on board since the be-
ginning because their implemen-
tation was flawless.
Chris Kostelnik, vice president
and store manager of Macys,
Dickson City, had this to say
about the company: They are al-
ways staying ahead of the curve,
not just on a regional level, but
on a national level. They have a
fresh approach to their online
products. Theyve evolved so
much over the past five years. I
love that they always have new
media channels available for me
to reach my customers.
John Mellon, a business/mar-
keting professor at Misericordia
University in Dallas Township,
applauded the new brand name.
By switching the name from a
publishing company to a
media company, he said, the
company has created more of a
21st century connotation.
Mellon said that shedding the
image whether accurate or
not of being just a publishing
company will help let businesses
and readers know that theres
more to the company than news-
print and ink. And the new
name, he added, will go a long
way toward helping to build
better relationships with your
customers by telling them what
you have to offer them beyond a
hard-copy newspaper.
The Times Leader has been
publishing a daily newspaper
since 1907. Through numerous
changes and owners, it once
again became the Wilkes-Barre
Publishing Company in 2006.
The company has long been rec-
ognized for its award-winning
journalism, and more recently
for its record-breaking audience
growth, ranked ninth in the na-
tion and second in the state by
The Audit Bureau of Circula-
tions.
Besides publishing newspa-
pers, including The Times Lead-
er, the Weekender, the Sunday
Dispatch, Go Lackawanna, The
Abington Journal, The Dallas
Post and El Mensajero, the com-
pany operates numerous media
websites and also offers commer-
cial printing and packaging ser-
vices along with its numerous
digital marketing solutions for
local businesses.
IMPRESSIONS
STATE COLLEGE The col-
lective graying of Pennsylvanias
population presents a demo-
graphic challenge for colleges
and universities.
Recently released 2010 census
figures showed the common-
wealths populationgettingolder,
withthemedianagepushingpast
40 as the first baby boomers re-
ach retirement age.
The flipside tothe trend: fewer
children.
There were more than 2.7 mil-
lion Pennsylvania residents
younger than 18 in 2010, down
about 4percent from2.9milliona
decade earlier, according to the
Census Bureau. There were also
fewer residents age 10-14 in 2010,
and the percentage of homes
with children also decreased.
The stats offer colleges a peek
of whats to come. Trends from
the 2010 census echo similar
trends from the 2000 count and
earlier surveys that had caught
the attention of higher education
leaders, who have responded by
seeking more out-of-state stu-
dents, including from overseas,
and expanding efforts aimed at
nontraditional students.
David Kuskowski, director of
marketing and recruitment for
undergraduate admissions at
Penn State, pointed to the north-
eastern and southwestern parts
of the state as areas of aging, as
well as a few pockets of growth
among younger residents, such
as the Pittsburgh suburb of Cran-
berry Township.
We have seen it coming, and
we are expecting not to see it im-
prove, Kuskowski said.

walking for exercise.
Hussa said too many people
look for negatives, like worrying
that they will get hit by a car if
they try to cross River Street to
get to the park.
Im confident it will all be
good some day, she said. Rome
wasnt built in a day. The city has
pulled itself up by the bootstraps,
andpeople will discover this park
and use it.
Getting the community to em-
brace the River Common has
been a difficult sell. People like
Jim Brozena, executive director
of the Luzerne County FloodPro-
tection Authority and the engi-
neer whodevisedincorporatinga
riverfront park into the flood pro-
tection system, has visions of the
park becoming a place people
flock to every day.
We want to be able to attract
local people and people from
New York City, Philadelphia and
other places, Brozena said. We
want to growthe park by holding
quality events and also raise
awareness of how the park im-
proves the quality of our lives.
Cherrypicking ideas
Brozena and Karl Borton, di-
rector of River Common Pro-
gramming and Outreach, look to
Hartford, Conn., -- where hun-
dreds of thousands of people visit
annually -- as an example of what
they see the River Common
evolving into. They said more
than 160,000 people visited the
River Common in 2010 and their
goal for 2011 is to break the
200,000 mark.
We have looked at Hartford
and smaller venues like Sunbury,
Williamsport, Lock Haven and
Harrisburg, and were cherry-
picking the best ideas offered at
each and we intend to offer them
here, Brozena said. What will
the River Common become? We
really dont know yet.
What we do know, Brozena is
quick to point out, is that the Riv-
er CommonParkis one of the few
venues that opens up to a citys
downtown. He said the combina-
tion of a beautiful riverfront park
next to a vibrant downtown will
attract not only visitors, but big-
ger and better acts and attrac-
tions in the coming years.
Borton, 25, of Forty Fort, said
every event at the River Com-
mon is coordinated with the city.
He said the city has worked with
event planners to keep streets
open, provide crossing guards
and offer other services.
This area and this park will
soon become a hot spot a tour-
ist destination, Borton said.
With the support of sponsors
andfromthe community at-large,
you will see a ripple effect that
will grow the park.
Brozena and Borton have put
together a busy summer for the
park. In addition to the concerts
and cultural events planned, Bro-
zena said the River Common has
been the site for weddings 10
are scheduled for this year. Bro-
zena said family oriented events
are a priority andhe saidtalks are
ongoing with other event plan-
ners like the annual Fine Arts
Fiesta to make the
River Common their
home.
We want to have
polka parties on the
River Common, Bro-
zena said. Were
bringing the U.S. Ar-
my Brass Band to the
park and the Wyom-
ing Seminary orches-
tra. Theres so much
going on this year
something for every-
body.
By holding events
like these, Borton
and Brozena say that
people will get ex-
posed to the park and
visit when events
arent going on. To
encourage dog walkers, Brozena
said doggie-bag stations are be-
ing installed so owners can clean
up after their pets.
Viewing fireworks
The River Common will also
be marketed as a vantage point to
watch the Kirby Park fireworks
on the Fourth of July.
It offers the perfect place for
viewing, Borton said. We dont
want to compete with the Kirby
Park event; we want to offer an-
other place where people can sit
and watch the spectacular dis-
play.
Borton and Brozena also want
people to come to terms with the
Susquehanna River. Long
thought of as an unclean villain
that overflowed its banks and
wreaked havoc on the Wyoming
Valley, the river has made a
comeback. Biologists and others
have saidthe river is anurbanwa-
terway and can and should be
used for fishing, boating, kayak-
ing and other activities.
Its time for peo-
ple to come to the
park and consider
getting out on the
river, Brozena
said, noting that
three outfitting
companies will be
renting kayaks and
boats for visitors
this summer. Ev-
ery year we hear
more people say
that they never re-
alized how beauti-
ful the river is-
.Borton said may-
flies have been
hatching on the
river and he sees
that as a clear indi-
cation that the riv-
er has a renewed vitality.
Mayflies can only exist where
the water is clean and each year
we see them return, Borton
said. The Susquehanna has
been designated as one of the top
recovering rivers in the U.S. Its
time for people to appreciate hav-
ing such natural beauty in their
back yard.Mayor Tom Leighton
said the River Common is a fan-
tastic resource for the city and re-
gion. He expects the park to con-
tinue to attract visitors from
Northeastern Pennsylvania and
elsewhere.
This has extraordinary cultur-
al and economic benefits to the
city and its people, Leighton
said. This full summer season of
concerts, RiverFest, and other
activities will really demonstrate
what the River Common can be-
come in the future.Hussa has
beenconductingwalkingtours in
the city for the YMCA. She said
the goal is to get people to be-
come more physically active.
Hussa recently returnedfroma
trip to Florence, Italy, and she
said she came back with a renew-
ed sense of pride in Wilkes-Barre
and the River Common Park.
Dont get me wrong, I love
seeing so many concerts and
events on the river, she said.
But I want people to view the
park as a valuable and usable re-
source.
Parking concerns
Brozena said many people
have been reluctant to park
downtown and walk a fewblocks
to the River Common. He said
that mentality needs to be
changed.
There are plenty of parking
venues in the city, Brozena said.
And when people park and walk
to the park and then back, city
businesses will benefit as well.
Like I said, the park and the con-
cept of having a riverfront park
adjacent to the downtown is still
evolving. Were confident the fu-
ture is bright.

Brozena is quick to
point out that the
River Common Park is
one of the few venues
that opens up to a
citys downtown. He
said the combination
of a beautiful river-
front park next to a
vibrant downtown will
attract not only vis-
itors, but bigger and
better acts and at-
tractions in the com-
ing years.

in, and howmuch her treatments
cost, and some people around
here, they cant pay for that.
We found out that theres a lot
more breast
cancer around
here than we
ever thought
there would
have been,
said Daniele,
adding that in
preparing for
the walk she
learned many
of her friends
had family
members who
had breast can-
cer.
The girls,
both students
at Greater Nan-
ticoke Area

nizing the walk
provided a les-
son in maturity.
We had to go to board meet-
ings. We had to get it all ap-
proved. We had to put fliers up
everywhere. We had to get peo-
ple to come, Kinlaw said.
They also made dozens of pink
ribbons and collected more than
$600 from local businesses prior
to the event.
Im really proud of her, said
Krystals mother Jayme Daniele.
For two teens to come up with
something this big; its pretty im-
pressive.
Its unheard of, said Newport
Township Commissioner Jack
Vishnefski before the walk. Its
kind of what we need more of in
this world.
A few dozen participants set
off from the Newport Township
Recreation Park around 10 a.m.,
and made two laps of a course
around Wanamie, from Center
Street to Vandermark Street to
West Main Street, leading back
to Center Street four miles in
all.
Volunteers also sold hotdogs
and a DJ performed.
Imglad they grabbed the bull
by the horns and started this
down here. Communities dont
do enough things like this, said
Tom Kashatus, president of the
Newport Township Community
Organization.

AN OPEN MESSAGE
TO BISHOP BAMBERA
Most Reverend Joseph C. Bambera, J.C.L., D.D.
Bishop of Scranton
Your Excellency,
You have decided to close Sacred Heart of Jesus Church, North Main
Street, Wilkes-Barre, after the 2 P.M. Sunday Mass on June 19, 2011.
Recently faithful parishioners of Sacred Heart/St. John Parish
exercised their right under Canon Law to continue the appeal process
by petitioning the Congregation for the Clergy at the Vatican to
suspend your intention to suppress the Sacred Heart/St. John Parish
and close the Sacred Heart of Jesus Church.
Parishioners have repeatedly requested that you keep your well
publicized policy of not closing churches or suppressing parishes
while an appeal is pending before the Congregation for the Clergy.
Any unwillingness on your part to suspend the suppression of the
parish and closure of the church would bode the question: Whats
the rush?, since this action would undermine the authority of the
Congregation for the Clergy by irreparably altering the parish and the
church.
Since the church is scheduled to be padlocked on June 19, 2011,
the parishioners are publicly urging you as trustee of our parish
property to: 1) maintain Sacred Heart of Jesus Church as a
Worship Site; 2) protect the church, its contents and other parish
property; and 3) not to give away or sell the church or other
parish properties, nor any of its contents including the artwork
and artifacts, until the parishioners appeal process is concluded
at the Vatican.
This faithful parish community has made signifcant contributions
to the diocese and community throughout its 115 year history
including exceptional fnancial support of Catholic education,
community service, and an abundance of religious vocations. To
allow the Sacred Heart of Jesus Church to remain open as a worship
site until the Vatican can rule on our appeal is not an unreasonable
request, considering the exemplary and prominent history of this
parish.
Thank you for your consideration,
Faithful Parishioners of Sacred Heart/St. John Parish

THE
ONE
AND
ONLY.
Meet Tom Bubul.
A veteran of 21 years, Tom now serves as Director of
Classied Advertising after rising through the ranks. He
explains the culture of the paper as centering on hard
work, not taking no for an answer and being innova-
tive. Tom thinks The Times Leader is the best because it
is truly a customer-driven business. If you want it we
have it. And if we dont well develop it.
program on the countys behalf,
also regularly visits homeless
shelters to publicize the pro-
gram, Dysleski said.
Participants arent left on their
own. Recipients of the free rent
must agree to participate in pro-
grams that address their disabil-
ities and prepare them for inde-
pendence, Dysleski said.
Were watching over them.
Were here to provide what they
need to help them stay in their
apartments so they dont get out
of control or get evicted, she
said.
Appealing to landlords
County officials believe that
landlords are more willingtorent
to the homeless if theyre assured
the countywill be monitoringthe
tenants, Dysleski said.
The grant will pay up to $529
per month in rent for a one-bed-
room unit, Dysleski said. That
dollar amount is set by the feder-
al government.
Participants may find their
own apartments, though the
dwellings must meet inspection
guidelines.
People interested in the pro-
gram must fill out an application
at CEO, which is located at 165
Amber Lane in Wilkes-Barre.
Dysleski said she is confident
the remaining slots will be filled.
I think theyre out there. Its
just doing the verification thats
difficult, she said.
Some eligible people also may
not want to be helped, she said.
One of those pills thats hard
to swallow is that some dont
want to participate, and you cant
force them to do it, even though
you know it would be beneficial
to them, Dysleski said.
HOMELESS
said. "It alsoremovesthepossibil-
ityof cadmium, leadandmercury
from leaching into water suppli-
es."
She emphasized the recycling
collection provides an opportuni-
ty for residents to get rid of un-
wantedelectronics at no charge.
One resident from the Back
Mountain said the collection of-
feredhimawaytoget ridof ajunk
television he had been trying to
dump for years. A woman from
Pittstonsaidshewasthrilledwith
being able to jettison her junk
without paying a landfill fee. An-
other man who drove 20 miles
from Salem Township admitted
he believes he is helping keep the
environment clean.
DeNardi said Luzerne County
is one of the few remaining in
Pennsylvania able to provide the
service through funding from
grant money through the Penn-
sylvania Department of Environ-
mental Protection, from funds
raised through the countys recy-
cling service fees and by sponsor-
ship funds from the Electronic
Manufacturers Recycling Man-
agement Company.
The lions share of the material
collectedonSaturdaywill berecy-
cledby next week, she said.
RECYCLE
Her sentiments were echoed by
theevents speaker, ovariancancer
survivor Karen Riley.
A little bit of rain, dark clouds
andthunderstorms will not damp-
en our spirits, she said as she en-
thusiastically addressed the
crowd.
The 61-year-old Scranton native
who now resides in White Haven
was diagnosed with ovarian can-
cer in October 2009. After under-
going chemotherapy for 18
months, she was clear of the dis-
ease. Her catscans have since re-
peatedly come back with clear re-
sults.
She acknowledged there is a
chance t the disease could return
but pointed out the possibility of
that happening does not enter her
mindset.

breast cancer 40 years ago, was
generous with advice for people
who are dealing with the disease
for the first time.
Always be positive, she said.

family and in a spiritual being.
Riley repeatedly emphasized
the importance of getting to know
hospital staff when being treated
for cancer.
Come to your doctor prepared
andaskall of thequestionsyoucan

they are the best resource you will
have, Riley said.
Dr. Kyo Chu, a surgical oncolo-
gist who has been with the Henry
Cancer Center for the past nine
months and in practice for 15
years, also touted the importance
of hope and positivity.
A cancer diagnosis will seem
daunting and shocking at first but
it is important toknowthat it does
not mean the end, he said.
He pointed out there are often
more options for treating and po-
tentially curing the disease then a
lot of cancer victims initially real-
ize. Chupraisedthe HenryCancer

places where many different
teams of doctors approach cancer

When it comes to school ath-
letics, the ways inwhichstudents
will feel budget cuts this school
year will vary fromdistrict to dis-
trict, school to school and sport
to sport.
InWilkes-BarreArea, for exam-
ple, seventh- and eighth-grade
sports will be folded into junior
high school sports.
At Meyers HighSchool, Athlet-
ic Director Mike Namey said,
cuts would mainly affect the bas-
ketball program. But seventh-
and eighth-grade players would
not be denied any experiences on
a junior high athletic team. They
would still be a part of that.
Still, Nameysaid, its certainly
possible the students would see
decreased playing time because
playing time is subject to athletic
ability, and there are only so
many positions on a team.
Seventh- and eighth-grade
teams are considered develop-
mental teams, Namey said. But
by the same token, playing on a
junior high teaminstead of a sev-
enth- or eighth-grade teamwould
not necessarily be detrimental,
he said, noting that the school
district didnt have seventh- or
eighth-grade teams when he
graduated from Meyers.
He said savings would be real-
ized in decreased coach salaries
and busing costs if the budget in
its current form is adopted.
Its critical for everyone to un-
derstand that these are cuts
(amounting to about $200,000)
are proposed and things we are
trying to do to prepare for when
wedoget a final budget fromHar-
risburg and our school district.
No one will truly know until the
budget is finalized, Namey said.
At Hazleton Area, the largest
district in Luzerne County with
10,000 students and 74 sports
teams, Athletic Director Fred
Barletta submitted program cuts
totaling $130,000. That repre-
sents 11 percent of Hazleton Ar-
eas $1.2 million athletic budget
and is in addition to a 6-percent
decrease from the 2010-11 school
year.
Barletta said he spent 29 years
as a teacher and has come to ap-
preciate the positive effects ath-
letics have on academics.
Our student athletes have
higher GPAs than the average,
higher SAT results than the aver-
age in the school and a lower in-
cidence of discipline than the av-
erage inour school. Is there a cor-
relation or just a coincidence? I
believe its a correlation, he said.
One area of savings comes
from eliminating at least five as-
sistant coach positions. In an ef-
fort to be fair to student athletes,
Barletta drewup a ratio of coach-
es to students for each team.
He cut one assistant coach
from softball because there were
6.3 players for each coach. He
made no cuts to the boys track
and field team because there
were 21 athletes for each of the
three coaches.
More savings came from no
longer supplying footwear to ath-
letes, a savings of $4,500 for the
football teamalone. Hazleton Ar-
ea alsowill eliminate twoof three
ninth-grade boys basketball
teams andone of two ninth-grade
girls basketball teams. The dis-
trict will not re-establishseventh-
and eighth-grade football, and
the cheerleading booster club
will nowpayfor transportationto
cheerleading competitions. Halt-
ing free shirts for coaches, at the
suggestion of the school board,
will save another $2,500.
School budget deficits
forcing cuts in sports

Some mid-grade teams will
vanish; one district will make
athletes buy their own shoes.
By STEVE MOCARSKY
Public speaking classes: cut.
After-school tutoring: gone.
Some sports programs have
been downsized as well.
Strecker fears first and fore-
most that my child might not
get the best educational experi-
ence in public school. If my
child is behind in something,
will it be caught? What if some-
thing doesnt get picked up in
first grade and they get too far
behind? said Strecker, 38, of
Rice Township.
Strecker was one of several
Crestwood parents who refused
to wait and see what happens.
They did their homework on
the educational and develop-
mental effects of half-day versus
full-day kindergarten and care-
fully examined whether the
school district would realize a
significant savings from switch-
ing and had an informational
rally to present what they
found.
A similar scene played out
Thursday night at a Hanover
Area School Board meeting. Of-
ficials there have proposed cut-
ting staff by 18 percent, consoli-
dating schools, eliminating pro-
grams and raising taxes 0.9
mills.
For more than an hour, the
board heard from angry tax-
payers and Leann Simasek, a
teacher who brought some of
her students to speak out
against the boards proposal to
cut the visual arts program and
eliminate her position. Youre
telling the kids theyre worth-
less, Simasek had said.
The Crestwood parents plan
to present their findings on kin-
dergarten cuts to the school
board and administration and
hope to convince the people in
charge that their children will
be put at risk while the district
will not realize savings.
Professor weighs in
That risk is something Joe
Rogan, a professor of teacher
education at Misericordia Uni-
versity, says is real and is
backed up by research.
Theres a ton of long-term
research on early childhood
education. Weve seen stu-
dents doing better on state
tests, Rogan said of students
who attended full-day kinder-
garten. Pre-school students also
fare better in later school years.
It stays with them their en-
tire lives. Theyre much more
likely to graduate from high
school. And be successful later
in life, Rogan said. Its largely
a result of getting kids started
earlier. Its not a luxury, its a
necessity. Those kids that come
to school behind will stay be-
hind. Theyre just not going to
catch up.
As far as a reduction in teach-
ers, Rogan said the result is
larger class sizes.
Class size alone doesnt
seem to be predictive of much
of anything. If I lecture to 12
students, they learn as much as
if I lecture to 30 students. But if
a class size is manageable,
teachers can be more creative.
If not, they get stuck in tradi-
tional teaching formats. They
have no choice but to be less
creative, do less projects, move
around the room less, Rogan
said.
Once you get up in the 30s,
you cant deal with kids any-
more, youre dealing with a
group. Instead of adjusting to
kids needs, they expect the
kids to adjust to the system and
kids cant always adjust. With
smaller classes, you get to know
the students better, you get to
know their needs better and
you can adjust, Rogan said.
Some students who struggle
with the basics such as reading,
writing and math often come to
school looking forward to par-
ticipating in art or music or
sports, Rogan said, addressing
cuts to those areas.
Without those, school be-
comes a drudgery for them, he
said.
Value of pre-school
Pre-school programs also pre-
vent learning problems, Rogan
said. Those students who do
have developmental problems
can be helped when a classroom
teacher notices signs early and
collaborates with a special edu-
cation teacher, Rogan said.
If a teacher has a large class,
you get lost. Its going to have a
tremendously bad effect on kids
with developmental disabili-
ties, Rogan said of cuts to early
education programs and larger
class sizes in primary grades.
Strecker, a medical supplies
salesman, said he is thankful he
can afford to send his son to a
full-day kindergarten at a pri-
vate school. But he worries
about the children of parents in
the district who cant afford it,
such as a large portion of those
living in White Haven.
The median household in-
come in White Haven is about
$43,000, compared to the
median household income for
Rice Township, which is about
$73,000. About 30 percent of
White Haven households bring
in less than $25,000 in income
versus 15 percent of Rice Town-
ship households, according to
the U.S. Census Bureau.
State Rep. Tarah Toohil, R-
Butler Township, had sent a
representative to the Crestwood
rally. As a proponent of full-day
kindergarten, she said she
hopes school board members
will reassess their priorities
because the reduction would
have a negative impact on
working families who will have
to either pay for full-day kin-
dergarten or pay for childcare
services.
White Haven is part of Too-
hils district.
Rogan and Helen Davis, who
teaches English at Wilkes Uni-
versity, said the educational
cuts are hardest on the least
wealthy families.
Its creating a class-based
system thats unfair. Parents
who can afford to send their
children to private school will
get them the best education.
Children in public schools will
not get the same kind of educa-
tion, Davis said.
The kids who need educa-
tion the most are the ones who
are hurt the most, Rogan said.
Rogan said its the states re-
sponsibility to find funding for
education, and he suspects that
cuts are part of an effort to priv-
atize schools.
I think there are politicians
backing away from educating
the entire society in favor of
educating only some, Rogan
said.
SCHOOL
Peter Strecker talks about unintended negative consequences of educational budget cuts in Crest-
wood School District at a recent informational rally.
But at the same time, he zeroed
out several programs that will
cost Luzerne County districts
$8 million combined, including
dual enrollment, which let high
school students take college
classes, accountability block
grants that could be used for a
variety of things within state
guidelines, and reimbursement
for money lost when students
enrolled in charter schools.
Przywara said its tough to ad-
just because the education sub-
sidy in Corbetts 2011-12 budget
doesnt account for regular an-
nual increases for things such
as teacher salaries. Health in-
surance premiums have jumped
17 percent, and the districts
pension obligation increased
more than $800,000, he noted.
And the governor tied our
hands by not letting us increase
taxes more than 1.9 percent.
Right now, were
looking at a $3 mil-
lion deficit. Our on-
ly alternative is to
use some of the
fund balance. Hope-
fully, the Senate will
bring back some ad-
ditional funding,
he said.
State Rep. Eddie
Day Pashinski, D-
Wilkes-Barre, said
the Senate has it in
their power to re-
store some funding
and urged constitu-
ents to contact their
senators. Its not a
done deal.
State Rep. Tarah Toohil, R-
Butler Township, said last week
that more funding has been
placed into the education bud-
get exceeding what Corbett
proposed. The Senate might in-
crease that funding even more
before the June 30 final passage
deadline.
The current House proposal
cuts more money out of the fat
Department of Public Welfare
Budget and adds money back
into education, Toohil said.
State Sen. Lisa Baker, R-Leh-
man Township, said some edu-
cation funding will be restored,
but its not likely it will be
enough to make all cuts avoid-
able.
As local school boards and
administrators scramble to re-
duce budget deficits they attri-
bute to state funding reduc-
tions, many people have been
demonizing the man they say is
the cause of their fiscal woes
Gov. Tom Corbett.
Luzerne Countys 11 school
districts saw state aid drop $25
million for the 2011-12 school
year. But about $20 million of
that, according to Corbett, was
stimulus money that the federal
government supplied only for
the 2009-10 and 2010-11 school
years.
Wilkes-Barre Area Business
Manager Leonard Przywara
said the state warned school
districts when stimulus money
was released that it would not
be a reliable source of contin-
ued funding, describ-
ing it as a cliff you
were going to fall
down if districts re-
lied on it for salaries
and other necessi-
ties.
We looked at pro-
grams and tried to
stay away from hir-
ing new people,
Przywara said.
Dallas Business
Manager Grant Pal-
fey said school dis-
trict administrators
planned for a state
funding reduction,
but Im not sure we
thought the decrease would be
as much as it was. Dallas lost
$896,000.
Some measures the district
took include moving some
transportation in-house and
providing in-house programs
that had been run by an inter-
mediate unit.
Przywara said Wilkes-Barre
Area also had some cost reduc-
tion plans, but he, too, was sur-
prised by the magnitude of
state cuts. He said Corbett rein-
stated education funding to
2008-09 levels, but that was
three or four years ago and
costs have gone up.
Corbett has noted he in-
creased basic education fund-
ing by 2.5 percent over last year.

I
f youre a genealogist, it never hurts
to let the world know what youre
searching for, however obscure you
think it might be. Publicizing your
quest easily can pay big dividends.
Several weeks ago Elsa Garey Roden
of New York wrote to inquire about a
popular book on Hadsell genealogy.
She wasnt even sure of the title. With
an online search I was able to supply
the name and author, but I was sad to
report that the book is out of print.
Then after I mentioned her search
here, two readers wrote in to offer help
big-time help.
DAR regent Kathleen Smith said that
the DAR Library in Washington, D.C.,
has a copy. One of my chapter mem-
bers is going down there at the end of
the month and if I knew what Elsa is
looking for, we could try to copy it for
her, she said.
Simultaneously, Gina Evans of the
Wyoming County Historical Society in
Tunkhannock wrote to say that her
group has the book as well and that
Ms. Roden may visit and copy as much
of it as she needs for just the cost of the
copying.
Of course I forwarded both emails to
Elsa Garey Roden, and now she has a
good shot at finding her vital informa-
tion.
Lets give a couple of loud operatic-
style bravas to Kathleen and Gina.
This is the way genealogists help one
another, and it all starts with letting
the public know what youre looking
for.
Genealogy Records Update: Records
from three Kingston Catholic churches
and one funeral home will soon be
available to the public, thanks to the
ongoing microfilm project of the North-
east Pennsylvania Genealogical Socie-
ty.
The society has filmed records of St.
Ignatius and two now-closed churches
that have merged with St. Ignatius
St. Hedwigs and St. Marys Annuncia-
tion. Also filmed are the records of the
Maher Funeral Home.
Included among the church records
are anniversary programs, church clos-
ing programs, newspaper articles and
other items. These records will now
be burned to DVDs and will be avail-
able for research at our library within
the next month, the society an-
nounced recently. The funeral home
records will also be available soon.
The society is also busy microfilming
local high school yearbooks.
To inquire about membership in the
society, send an email to nepg-
smail@gmail.com. The phone number
is (570) 829-1765. The societys library
is at 639 Main Road, Hanover Town-
ship. It is open Thursdays 10 a.m. to 4
p.m. and every second Saturday noon
to 4 p.m.
The groups schedule of meetings for
the season has ended and will resume
in the fall.
Vacation: As usual when summer
nears I suggest that genealogists use
some of their vacation time to visit
sites associated with their ancestors.
Lets look at a few in the New York City
area.
The Lower East Side Tenement
Museum, at Broome and Orchard
streets, offers tours of authentic 19th-
century and early-20th-century tene-
ment apartments, where many of our
ancestors got their start. Ellis Island
and Castle Garden, both at Battery
Park, are the sites where from the
mid-1800s to the mid-1900s immigrants
from Europe disembarked.
As our family patriots from World
War II, Korea and the Cold War eras
slip away from us, take some time to
visit the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space
Museum on Pier 86, featuring the
aircraft carrier Intrepid and submarine
Growler, for the sights and feel of mil-
itary life of a bygone era.

maybe Im an old cornball, but the truth
will set you free. Getting to the truth is a
challenge in many ways, as weve seen in
Luzerne County recently. Its human
nature to have little secrets, and thats
fine if its a personal or family thing, but
when youre a public official and its a
secret that can affect others, people
should know about that. I like getting to
the truth.
When asked to name the most memora-
ble story he ever covered, Mehalshick
names a homicide, 20 years ago, of a
2-year old girl from South Wilkes-Barre.
The child was killed by a member of her
own family and her body was dumped
into Solomon Creek. The family member
later assisted in the search party.
When you went to the creek as the body
was being brought out, you could hear a
pin drop. That, by far, was the toughest
live shot Ive ever done. My daughter, at
the time, was the same age. And to see
this innocent little girl ... it angered me,
and it also made me more pro-active
when it came to crime reporting.
What do you do to relax? I love boating.
I water ski and snow ski. And I spent a lot
of time, when I can, with my daughter.
Shes not a little girl anymore, but when
shes home, we play a lot of tennis. Peo-
ple think because you work in the media
that youre out there in the mix and
theres a lot of country club visits and
that kind of thing. Thats not me. Im a
working-class guy. I spend a lot of time
with my family, and when my daughter is
away, my wife and I have a lot of quality
time. Walks, hikes but my main hobby is
boating.
Music? Traditional rock: Aerosmith,
KISS, AC/DC, Thin Lizzy, Boston.
Sports? Im a big Dallas Cowboys fan
from way back. I started following them
with Super Bowl V, when they lost to the
Baltimore Colts on a field goal. And then
they beat Miami the next year. Im also a
big Pittsburgh Pirates fan. I saw Roberto
Clemente play in Pittsburgh back in the
late 60s and early 70s. And Im a big
Boston Celtics fan.

any doctors office but there are
some noticeable differences: in addi-
tion to comfortable vinyl chairs and
smiling receptionists, there is the as-
surance of completely free medical
care that welcomes working families
without access to insurance. And,
while the organization prepares for
its largest annual fundraiser, patients
are being greeted by a wall of 120
boxed disco balls.
Volunteers in Medicine (VIM) is a
nonprofit organization that helps
meet the primaryhealthcare needs of
the working uninsured and underin-

ty. On June 17, VIM will hold its 3rd

There are 85 VIM locations
throughout the United States, which
vary insize andscope fromcommuni-
ty to community. The Wilkes-Barre
branch was first envisioned by Dr. Su-
san Sordoni. The clinic opened in the
summer of 2008 after Sordoni con-
ducted a feasibility study. It revealed
35,000 working Luzerne County resi-
dents had no access to health insur-
ance. A few grants received from pri-
vate foundations helped make Sordo-
nis vision tangible: the building adja-

Proudest professional moment?
We did an Internet predator sting
in 2007, where we worked with
police departments and had our
producer posing as a 13-year old
girl in local chat rooms. And we
helped the police they did the
work but we helped facilitate the
arrest of six people. We worked it
for about two years, and Im proud
of it, because I think we got some
bad people off the street. They all
pleaded guilty. Thats what journal-
ism should be: advocacy and being
pro-active.

of the Wilkes-Barre office. Lay
volunteers also provide much of
the manpower behind the orga-
nization. The staff includes stu-
dents from Fortis, Kings Col-
lege, and Wilkes University, and
the help of enthusiastic commu-
nity members is always appre-
ciated.
The clinic serves 4,500 regis-
tered patients between 9 a.m.
and 5 p.m. Monday through Fri-
day, and offers extended hours
on Thursday until 8 p.m. Since
VIM opened three years ago, it
has seen more than 8,300
unique visits. The office, with10
fully equipped exam rooms,
sometimes schedules more
than 25 appointments per day.
Our average demographic is
adults between 25 and 55, and
demand is steady, Kelly Ranie-
li, the VIMs executive director,
explains. She cites the recent
cancellation of state-subsidized
Adult Basic insurance program
andthe uncertaineconomy for a
recent influx of patients. While
amendments to federal insur-
ance laws that now allow chil-
dren to stay on their parents
health care plans have seen the
number of tween-to-twenties
visitors drop, Ranieli says, over-
all, the number of uninsuredres-
idents is not decreasing. While
the quality of the facility andthe
dedication of the volunteers
provide the VIM team with a
strong sense of pride and ac-
complishment, Dr. Coslett and
Ranieli agree that the real
dream is the day the clinic does
not have to exist, when every-
one has access to quality, affor-
dable health insurance.
That certainly does not mean
VIM is cutting corners while
workingtowardDr. Sordonis vi-
sion. In January 2011, a free den-
tal clinic with 5 treatment
rooms and an X-ray machine
was opened on site. It quickly
accrued 450 patients and an ad-
ditional 400 cram the waiting
list.
The difficulty with time and
space in the dental clinic, Ra-
nieli explains, is that patients
oftencome inexcruciatingpain,
which is generally the result of a
problem that needs four or five
visits to resolve before the pa-
tient can reduce visits to every
six months.
While even the medical cen-
ter, which is booking three
weeks in advance, may seem
jam-packed, Coslett compares
the wait to a typical offices
schedule. She says, Even those
patients apprehensive about a
doctors visit just need to come.
So many times health problems
can be fixed if they are caught
quickly enough. We are here to
offer free, quality, and compas-
sionate care. In a country like
ours, with the testing capability
we have, there is no reason why
serious problems should go un-
diagnosed. We are really here
for those who slip through the
cracks.
VIMs ongoing challenge,
however, is to meet patient de-
mand with limited funds. VIM
receives no state or federal aid;
it relies entirely on the support
of individuals, businesses, and
foundations. VIMs biggest fun-
draiser is its annual Music, Me-
mories & Medicine Gala.
Chaired by Debbie and Alan
Hollander withthe assistance of
Drs. Coslett and Kowalski-
McGraw and their husbands,
the event will be held this year
at the Ball Room of Mohegan
Sun, whichis beingtransformed
for the evening into a disco hall.
Entertainment will be provided
by The 70s Band, New Yorks
No. 1disco band, and guests are
encouraged to dig their go-go
boots andleisure suits out of the
closet for a night of dining and
dancing. Tickets are available
through the VIM office for $135
per person. The staff hopes that
by curing their Saturday Night
Fever, guests can help assuage
the daunting lack of medical
care available totheir hardwork-
ing neighbors.

I
ts clear Jeff Gordon is shifting back
into gear.
Now that NASCARs transmission
gear ratios for Pocono Raceway have
changed, so has Gordons luck.
He finished third in Saturdays qual-
ifying run for todays 5-Hour Energy
500 at Pocono, marking his best start-
ing position at the tricky track since
qualifying second for the June 2009
race.
I just pushed the car as hard as I
could, Gordon said after roaring to a
lap time of 171.350 mph in his qualifier.
I didnt think I had the best lap, to be
honest with you.
It could have been much worse for
Gordon.
It could have been last year.
Thats when a luckless losing streak
sent him to a winless season for the
second time in three years, trying the
patience of even the normally affable
Gordon.
A bad decision on tires cost him
certain victory at Las Vegas. He got
caught in a bad pileup on the track at
Texas and didnt get a win in a race he
led most of the way. A bad tire got him
in Michigan and a bad battery cost him
a shot at winning in Charlotte.
After eight near-misses at victory
lane, his bad temper boiled over when
NASCAR came back to Texas.
After he was wrecked under caution
by Jeff Burton, Gordon sauntered
straight up the track and shoved Bur-
ton into a barrier.
By the end of the season, there was
no holding back his frustration.
A guy still to look out for
Partly because of it, his Hendrick
Motorsports team shuffled crew chiefs
putting Gordon in the hands of Alan
Gustafson and sending Gordons six-
year chief Steve Letarte over to work
with Dale Earnhardt Jr.
New faces, new season, new results.
During the second NASCAR race of
this season, Gordon snapped his win-
less skein by capturing Phoenix. That
started a string of four top-five finishes
in 12 races for Gordon, which boosted
him into 13th place in the current
points standings.
Thats not enough to make him an
automatic qualifier for the Chase for
the Cup just yet, but theres a lot of
racing season remaining. And a lot of
hope where Gordon is concerned.
Im so proud of the work thats been
done with this team to make some
gains, Gordon said. I think the per-
formance has picked up in a big way.
It seems as if his bad luck of last
season is out of the way.
Even as hes about to turn 40 in Au-
gust, Gordon is still a guy to look out
for.
He is tied with Cale Yarborough with
83 wins, the fifth-most victories in
NASCAR history, and is one away from
joining Bobby Allison and Darrell Wal-
trip in third place. Gordons place in
NASCARs lore is already set, as hes
one of just four drivers with four Cup
titles.
Four of Gordons race victories have
come at Pocono Raceway, where a win
today would match Bill Elliotts track
record of five wins. Gordon is already
at the top of the tracks record book
with 918 laps led.
And now that NASCARs gear ratios
have changed to make shifting more
conducive at tracks such as Pocono
where stricter ratios over the past three
years made shifting nearly impossible
Gordon could push into overdrive.
I wasnt a fan of when they took it
away, said Gordon, who suggested the
change will give drivers more opportu-
nity to pass.
Im glad its back.
So is Gordon. All it took was a shift-
ing of crew chiefs and a boost to his
hopes to make him a threat again.

LONG POND Kurt Busch had
about a two-minute window Sat-
urday to amend a gaffe made while
preparing for the 5-Hour Energy
500.
The result even surprised him.
Busch turned what could have
been a dire situation into the pole
position, using a backup car to earn
the best starting spot for todays
NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Poco-
no Raceway.
The two-time Pocono winner will
start on the pole for the first time
in his 21 races at the 2.5-mile tri-
oval. He piloted his No. 22 Dodge
owned by Roger Penske around the
track at 171.579 mph, well off the
track record of 172.533 set by Ka-
5-HOUR ENERGY 500 AT POCONO
One lucky mishap
FRED ADAMS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER
The Shell/Pennzoil Dodge of Kurt Busch gets fueled up for the qualifying run Saturday.
When talk of environmentally
friendly activities comes up,
NASCAR is probably not the first
sport that comes to mind.
After all, 43 cars barreling
around a track for three or four
hours isnt the type of thing to
make environmentalists feel all
warm and fuzzy inside.
But if Mike Lynch has any-
thing to do with it, that is a
perception that will soon be
changing.
We started out to develop and
implement a green strategy
across the sport, said Lynch,
NASCARs managing director of
green innovation. Its about
conservation, job creation and
strengthening American energy
independence.
To that end, NASCAR began
using Sunoco Green E15, a 15
percent enthanol blend fuel
made with corn grown by Amer-
ican farmers, in its top three
series.
If we can show how well it
NASCAR has
lots of drive
to go green

lead in strikeouts, recording
seven to up his season total to
107. He allowed four hits and
one run while walking two.
Utley gave Philadelphia the
early lead with a two-run dou-
ble in the first and provided
some insurance with a two-run
homer in the eighth. Shane
Victorino had three hits, scored
three runs and drove in one for
Philadelphia, which has won
three of four.

nez also had RBIs for Philadel-

Saturday afternoon.
Curtis Granderson hit his
20th homer of the season and
Rodriguez got plunked by
Indians starter Mitch Talbot a
day after the teams benches
cleared, adding another chap-
ter to what has been a testy
homestand for the Yankees.
Talbot was ejected after
hitting A-Rod, and the Yankees
didnt respond in kind.
Instead, they sent Cleveland
to its 13th loss in 17 games
and left the Indians barely
clinging to first place in the
AL Central for one more day.

UPCOMI NG YANKEES SCHEDUL E
Dellin Betances: The No. 3
overall prospect for the Yankees
and the top pitching prospect,
Betances continues to be produc-
tive at Double-A Trenton.
His ERA has steadily risen in
the last three
weeks, but it
would be diffi-
cult for the
mark to get
much lower
than it was
then. His ERA
still remains at
a stellar 1.75.
Hes posted a
3-1 record with
58 strikeouts
and only 34
hits allowed in
51
1
3 innings for
the Thunder.
On Thursday,
he threwsix
shutout innings against Reading
in a no-decision.
Manny Banuelos: The No. 2
pitching prospect in the orga-
nization and the No. 4 overall
prospect for the Yankees, Banue-
los had his worst outing of the
year for Trenton last week when
he allowed nine hits and five
runs in four innings against
Reading.
The 20-year-old right-hander
did not pick up the loss in the
game and his record is still 2-0.
His ERA is still a very respect-
able at 2.84, with 45 strikeouts in
50
2
3 innings.
Gary Sanchez: The catcher,
who is rated the No. 2 overall
prospect in the organization, was
playing for Single-A Charleston
before being sent back to spring
training last week for what sever-
al media outlets have reported as
attitude problems.
Sanchez, who has been touted
by many as the organizations
best hitting prospect, reportedly
declined to enter a recent game
as a replacement and didnt want
to catch in the bullpen either.
He returned to the RiverDogs
last week and has gone 3-for-14
since returning. His season stats
after Friday are a .235 average,
with four home runs and 21 RBI
in 36 games.
Notable: Tampa third baseman
Robert Lyerly leads all Yankee
minor leaguers in batting aver-
age, hitting .322 in 239 at-bats
before Saturdays game.

The 2004 season didnt con-
clude with the Red Barons fin-
ishing with a winning record.
The team posted a 69-73 mark
that year, but it did have a mem-
orable streak.
From May 26 to June 13, the
Barons won a franchise-record
10 consecutive road games.
On June 12, 2004, SWB de-
feated Louisville, 10-6, in 10
innings after rallying back from
deficits in the sixth and eighth.
Mark Budzinski was 4-for-5 for
the Red Barons in the game.
The longest road win streak
was later tied by the Yankees
from April 8-25 in 2009.

outs in 61 innings.
Phillippe Aumont: One of
the three players acquired
by the Phillies in the Cliff
Lee deal in December 2009,
he got off to a rocky start
in the organization last year
when the Phillies tried to
make him a full-time starter.
The plan backfired as the
6-foot-7, 255-pound righty
finished 3-11 with a 5.68
ERA in the minors. This
year, as a reliever, hes post-
ed a 2.43 ERA in 24 appear-
ances for Double-A Reading,
with a 1-5 mark and four
saves.

Editors Note: The Philadelphia
Phillies minor league system has

spects during the last few years
with many trades being made to
help the parent club.
But that doesnt mean the cup-
board is bare.
The Phillies have produced more
young talent and might have
more pieces to deal if they need
to make a midseason trade this
season.

prospects in the Philadelphia
organization are faring this sea-

ALLEN-
TOWN The
shot soared
off the big
sluggers bat,
heading high
over the left-
field wall at
Coca-Cola Park and on its
way to yet another surprise
in a season Russ Canzler has
filled with them.
It was more than just the
first grand slam of his Tri-
ple-A career.
The fact it came on the
first pitch he saw and the
first swing he took in Penn-
sylvania since playing high
school ball less than an hour
up the road at Hazleton Area
High School made the mo-
ment even more meaningful
to Canzler.
That was great man,
Canzler said Tuesday, after
his first-inning slam began a
9-1 bashing by his Durham
Bulls over the Lehigh Valley
IronPigs.
That goes down, for me,
as one of my all-time favorite
home runs.
Hes hit plenty of them.
Canzlers blast Tuesday
was the 73rd home run of his
eight-year minor league ca-
reer, and gave him 355 ca-
reer RBI.
But this time, a whole
section of supporters from
his hometown cheered.
Including his parents Mike
and Janice, Canzler esti-
mates he initially had about
15 ticket requests from peo-
ple in the Hazleton area.
That number grew a little
bit, said Canzler, a 25-year-
old infielder. I havent been
able to play anywhere close
to home anywhere in my
career.
That journey began when
the Chicago Cubs drafted
Canzler out of Hazleton Area
High in the 30th round of
the 2004 Major League
Baseball June amateur
draft.
He put up good num-
bers in the Cubs farm
system, batting .272
with 67 homers and 322
RBI but never played
above Double-A during
seven seasons.
So he signed with the
Tampa Bay Rays as a minor
league free agent during the
offseason, where the major
league club is managed by
fellow Hazleton native Joe
Maddon.
Yet, Canzler said the fact
he spent his high school
years playing on Hazleton
Areas Joe Maddon Field had
little to do with his choice of
teams.
Not really, Canzler said.
Its pretty neat to have two
guys from the same home-
town in the same organiza-
tion, especially since its not
really a baseball town. But I
was looking for the opportu-
nity to get in the big leagues
sooner than later. And Tam-
pa Bay seems to have a his-
tory of giving guys that
chance.
Still, it was probably no
coincidence Maddon gave
Canzler his first invitation to
major league camp in spring
training for a couple weeks
this year, then Canzler
earned his first trip to Tri-
ple-A ball.
Everything everybody
told me about him from here
was true, Canzler said of
Maddon. Hes a first-class
guy, a great baseball guy. We
were able to work together.
Now Canzlers working on
a dream.
He entered midweek bat-
ting .285 for the Triple-A
Durham Bulls, with seven
homers, 19 doubles and was
among the team leaders with
33 RBI this season.
You never know what
kids are going to do when
they come up to Triple-A,
said Durham manager Char-
lie Montoyo, who once
played for the Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre Red Barons.
He has been a pleasant
surprise. He can hit, plays
the game the right way, hes
a leader.
I like him a lot.
Canzler admitted it took a
lot of adjustment to jump up
to the highest level of minor
league baseball.
A lot of these guys have
good experience, a lot of the
pitchers have major league
time, Canzler said. The
games a little bit faster, too.
As a hitter, I just have to be
at the top of my game.
As a fielder, hes learning a
new game.
Mainly a first baseman and
outfielder through his pro
career, Canzler is regularly
playing third base for the
Bulls.
His inexperience at the
position proved costly
when Canzlers throwing
error gave the IronPigs their
only run Tuesday.
Hes never really played
third base that much, Mon-
toyo defended. Last year he
played outfield and first
base. So far, hes been out-
standing. If he hits like hes
been hitting, Ive got to play
him everywhere.
That could lead to the
call-up Canzlers spent his
whole life looking for.
He believes his hot start to
his initial Triple-A season
has him major league ready,
and with parent Tampa Bays
continuing struggles at first
base, there have been a few
cries from big league fans in
Florida to call up Canzler.
Its going good, Canzler
said.
So well, in fact, Canzler
might not be in the minor
leagues anymore when Dur-
ham visits the Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre Yankees who
play just up the road from
Hazleton from Aug. 16
through 19. And his parents
might be moved into a new
home in Clayton, N.C., by
then.
But that wont keep Can-
zler from hearing the hoots
and hollers coming from
Hazleton.
I go up there every offsea-
son for a little while, Can-
zler said. Thatll always be
my home and hold a special
place in my heart.
Because to him, a trip
back near Hazleton is always
like hitting a grand slam.

WVC all-star game tonight
The much-hyped rubber
match between Shackleford and
Animal Kingdom never devel-
oped on a rainy day at Belmont
Park. Shackleford finished fifth,
while Animal Kingdom had a
frightful start, never moved into
contention and finished sixth.
Jockey John Velazquez nearly
fell off when Animal Kingdom
collided with Monzon just after
the start. He somehowmanaged
to get his left foot back into the
stirrup, but by then it was too
late. Animal Kingdom had drop-
ped more than 13 lengths off the
lead, and did well to finish in the
middle of the pack.
The horse almost fell down,
said Graham Motion, Animal
Kingdoms trainer. Johnny
couldnt believe the horse stayed
up. He lost his iron. It took him
until halfway around the turn to
get his foot back in the iron. Its
disappointing not to give the
horse a chance to run his race.
An elated Valdivia, riding in
his first Belmont, described the
final seconds of the race while on
the gallop back to the winners
circle.
Ima couple of yards fromthe
wire and Im thinking, Oh my
god, oh my god, Imgoing to win
the Belmont, he said.
A crowd of 55,779 turned out
hoping to see a stretch show-
down between Animal Kingdom
and Shackleford the first Der-
by vs. Preakness winners in the
Belmont in six years. But that
vanished once the Derby winner
was knocked around in a bad bit
of racing luck.
It was unbelievable, Velaz-
quez said. They came over on
me and clipped heels and I al-
most came off. I had a horrible
trip. No way was he going to
make up that much ground. Hes
still a great horse.
The Belmont has a history of
surprise finishes, from spoiled
Triple Crown attempts to stun-
ning shockers. Only two favor-
ites have won since Thunder
Gulch in 1995, and long shots
have been the norm. Last year, it
was 13-1 Drosselmeyer, two
years ago Summer Bird at 11-1,
and three years ago Da Tara at
38-1.
Birdstone spoiled Smarty
Jones bid for a Triple Crown in
2004 at odds of 36-1 and Sarava
ended War Emblems Triple try
in 2002 at 70-1 odds.
The win left Lori Hall, who
owns Ruler On Ice with her hus-
band George, shaking.
It was amazing, because we
really were the underdog, she
said.
Ruler On Ices victory makes it
three years in a row a different
horse has won each of the Triple
Crown races, and next year it
will be a 33-year gap since Af-
firmed swept the Derby, Preak-
ness and Belmont in 1978.
Ruler On Ice, trained by New
Jersey-based Kelly Breen, did
not runinthe first twolegs of the
Triple Crown. The 3-year-old
gelding didnt have enough grad-
ed stakes earnings to qualify for
the Derby, but vindicated his
trainers faith by defeating a field
that included the first seven fin-
ishers in the Run for the Roses.
The winning time for the ol-
dest and longest race in the Tri-
ple Crown was a slow 2:30.88.
While Shackleford and jockey
Jesus Castenon shot to the lead
from the outside No. 12 post,
Ruler On Ice stalked him all the
way around the track. Stay Thir-
sty and Brilliant Speed were
close behindbut they werent go-
ing to catchRuler OnIce once he
took over with about an eighth-
of-a-mile to go.
Ruler On Ice, a temperamen-
tal sort fitted with blinkers for
the first time to keep him fo-
cused, returned $51.50, $26 and
$13.60. Stay Thirsty, owner Mike
Repoles second-best 3-year-old
behind the sidelined Uncle Mo,
paid $19.40 and $10.80. Brilliant
Speed was third and returned
$7.90 to show.
The $2winpayoff is the eighth
highest in Belmont history. Sara-
vas $2 win payoff of $142.50 is
the record.
Nehro, second in his last three
races, including the Derby, was
fourth, followed by Shackleford,
Animal Kingdom, Mucho Ma-
cho Man, Santiva, Monzon, Mas-
ter of Hounds, Prime Cut and
Isnt He Perfect.
Shacklefords trainer Dale Ro-
mans said before the race he ex-
pected his colt to break first and
then see how far he can go. It
wasnt far enough.
He had it his way, Romans
said. We hadit the way we want-
ed. He just didnt hang on. Were
so proud of the way he perform-
ed. I was down, but I would nev-
er get too down running at this
level of race.

Greater Pittston
edges Hazleton
Syracuse starter Tommy Mi-
lone (4-4) picked up the win by
scattering eight hits and fan-
ning eight in seven innings, giv-
ing up a run only on designated
hitter Brandon Lairds sixth-in-
ning solo shot.
Zimmerman, a National
League all-star for Washington
in 2009, is returning from sur-
gery he had May 3 for a torn ab-
dominal muscle that he suffered
early this season. He singled in
his first at-bat in the first but
saved his damaging blowfor the
seventh.
With the game knotted 1-1,
Yankees starter D.J. Mitchell
(4-5) walked Corey Brown to
lead off the inning and Matt An-
tonelli bunted him to second.
One out later, Zimmerman sin-
gled to left to drive in Brown.
Zimmerman took second on a
wild pitch, and Chris Marrero
drilled a single to center for the
two-run cushion.
The Yankees pulled within
3-2 courtesy of an RBI single
from Laird in the eighth, but
wasted their last chance by hit-
ting into a game-ending double
play with runners on first and
second.
After several innings of huff-
ing and puffing with nothing to
show for it, the Yankees finally
took a chunk out of Milone in
the sixth. With one out, Laird
pounded a Milone offering over
the left-field wall to tie the game
at 1-1.
Mitchell came into the con-
test as Scranton/Wilkes-Barres
road ace, with a 4-0 record and a
1.24 ERA in games away from
home. But the Chiefs were rude
to Mitchell from the start. They
loaded the bases with two outs
in the bottom of the first, but
Mitchell wriggled out of that by
getting Jesus Flores to fly out to
deep center.
The pitcher couldnt keepit in
the ballpark the next inning. Sy-
racuse outfielder Jesus Valdez
launched a solo shot to left to
put the first run on the score-
board.
The Yankees were primed to
answer in the top of the third,
when Luis Nunez led off with a
double and took third on Gusta-
vo Molinas single. Greg Golson
then chopped a grounder to
Zimmerman at third, who
smoothly fired a strike home to
nab Nunez. Milone then fanned
Ramiro Pena and induced Jor-
dan Parraz to fly out.
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre made
more noise in the fourth, when
Kevin Russo lashed a two-out
single and took third on a hit by
Dan Brewer. Brewer stole sec-
ond, but both runners were
stuck where they were whenMi-
lone struck out Nunez.
RHP Andrew Brackman (2-5,
6.75) will take the mound for
the Yankees in todays 2 p.m.
game vs. Chiefs RHP Erik Arne-
sen (0-2, 4.91)

Four years ago, Rags to Rich-
es made history at Curlins
expense. The Kentucky Oaks
winner edged the Preakness
hero by a head to become the
first filly to win the Belmont
Stakes in 102 years.
Steve Asmussen saddled his
second Belmont runner Sat-
urday, when Nehro finished
fourth, 7
1
2 lengths behind 24-1
winner Ruler On Ice. The two-
time Eclipse Award winner still
wonders how his first one
didnt win.
Ive been thinking about
Curlin a lot this week, Asmus-
sen said Friday. I cant believe
it happened, but I watched it. It
happened. She ran incredible.
They came home in 48 going a
mile and a half. Some things are
just completely out of your
hands.
The stretch duel between the
filly and the huge chestnut colt
was among the most memora-
ble in Belmont history. Tom
Durkin captured the moment
with his race call: Theyre
going head to head. Its going to
be very close. Its ... a filly in the
Belmont!
Theres a racing saying that
you get paid for what you do,
but that you pay for it, too. It
was a glorious day for Rags to
Riches, but she would never
have another. She became ill
that summer, and she suffered a
leg injury when second in her
comeback race in September at
Belmont. She never ran again,
and trainer Todd Pletcher an-
nounced her retirement six
months later. Curlin became
Horse of the Year that season
and in 2008.
Curlins Belmont still bugs
Asmussen, anyway.
The next day, the next week
... four years later, and I still
cant believe he got beat, he
said. But he did.
No luck of the Irish
T.J. Comerford has worked
for his old friend Aidan OBrien
for 14 years. The assistant train-
er deputized for the Irish geni-
us in the Belmont, in which
Master of Hounds ran a dis-
appointing 10th of 12.
Comerford flew in from Ire-
land on Tuesday with Master of
Hounds and Viscount Nelson,
who was eighth in the Grade I
Woodford Reserve Manhattan.
They were scheduled to return
today to Shannon Airport in
southwest Ireland. Ive been
very busy with the two of them
this week, Comerford said
Friday.
Hell be even busier starting
Tuesday, the first of Royal As-
cots five days. Hell be coming
from OBriens Ballydoyle base
with runners for the worlds
most prestigious meet. Come-
rford said hell make round-trip
flights to England on Tuesday,
Thursday and Saturday.
Pletcher will send out his
first two Royal Ascot runners
Tuesday (Bridgetown) and
Friday (More Than Real, owned
by celebrity chef Bobby Flay).
In between, Pletcher plans to
visit Ballydoyle, the worlds
most famous stable. So he and
Comerford might cross paths
there Wednesday.
The affable Irishman got in a
friendly dig at Pletcher, Amer-
icas most successful trainer.
When I saw him the other
day, Comerford said, I told
him, Come over to see us and
well teach you how to train
one.

VANCOUVER, British Colum-
bia Tim Thomas is giving a
masterful performance in his net
during the Stanley Cup finals.
Hes also doing an excellent job
masking the frustration that
must be coursing through him.
The Bruins star goalie has al-
lowed just six goals by the Van-
couver Canucks in five games,
yet Boston is heading home fac-
ing elimination in Game 6 on
Monday.
Vancouver moved to the brink
of its first NHLtitle with a1-0 vic-
tory Friday the Canucks sec-
ond1-0 home winina series dom-
inated by the home teams. Un-
less they hold off the Canucks at
TD Garden, they wont get one
last chance to figure it out.
The plan was for us to score
more than them, which I guess
we have, but ... Thomas said, his
voice trailing off.
Indeed, the Bruins have out-
scored Vancouver 14-6 in the se-
ries, but 12 of those goals were in
two blowout wins in Boston. The
West Coast hasnt been nearly as
kind to the Bruins in a series in a
series thats been colored by dan-
gerous hits, diving and taunting
but dominated by stellar goal-
tending fromThomas and Rober-
to Luongo.
Its very close, Luongo said
Saturday before boarding a plane
to Boston. Its at our fingertips
right now. The next two days are
going to be very important to
stay focused, and come Monday
night, we have the game of our
lives. Were ready to do whatever
it takes to win.
While Luongo has been alter-
nately brilliant and hopeless,
Thomas is Bostons onlyconstant
in the series, scrambling around
his crease in a textbook perform-
ance of a goaltending style that
wont be found in any instruction
manual.
The Bruins won two blowout
games at home, but they havent
caught a break in Vancouver.
Thomas stopped 24 shots in
Game 5, but he failed to get to
Maxim Lapierres third-period
winner, scored off a canny re-
bound of Kevin Bieksas shot be-
hind his net. An estimated
100,000 fans in downtown Van-
couvers streets erupted in a sea
of celebration when Lapierre
scored.
Hundreds of those fans turned
out at Vancouvers airport on Sat-
urday, standing eight deep be-
hind a barrier. They screamed
and waved signs in the terminal
while sending off their team.
This is our chance, captain
Henrik Sedin said. You dont get
too many opportunities to finish
off a Stanley Cup final, and we
have to make the most of it.
Vancouver had won four of its
previous five road playoff games
before the back-to-back routs in
Boston. In a tense Game 5, the
Canucks acknowledged they had
to resort to trickery and luck just
to get one goal against Thomas,
who might be the next on a small
list of players to win the Conn
Smythe Trophy as the playoff
MVP from the losing team.
Thomas would prefer to win
the big silver prize, and he re-
mains confident the Bruins can
doit. Hehopes Bostoncangather
momentum back home, where
the Bruins embarrassed the Ca-
nucks on energy drawn partially
from Vancouver defenseman Aa-
ron Romes dangerous late hit in
Game 3 on Boston forward Nath-
an Horton, whos out for the se-
ries.
It seems like so far this series,
the home crowds have helpedthe
teams, said Thomas, who has a
jaw-dropping .971 save percent-
age in the finals, stopping 165 of
Vancouvers171shots. Its not al-
ways thecase, but goinghomefor
Game 6, we hope its the case one
more time.
The Canucks would love to
wrapuptheir franchises first title
without going through the ten-
sion of a Game 7, although they
emerged from Game 5 feeling
more relief than elation.
Vancouver had the NHLs high-
est-scoring offense and best pow-
er play during the regular season,
but the Canucks have beenforced
to play a different game just to
survive in the finals.
So far, theyre just getting away
with their meager offensive out-
put because Luongo has been
sharp at the biggest moments.
Luongo was pulled from Game 4
after giving up 12 goals in just
over four periods, but the veteran
Olympic gold medal-winners
shutout in Game 5 proved he has
a knack for big games, no matter
what his critical fans in Vancouv-
er might think.

MIAMI The hammer Dirk
Nowitzki is so close to escaping is
pounding away harder than ever
at LeBron James.
The Dallas Mavericks are a vic-
tory from claiming the title that
James came to Miami to win. It
would forever alter Nowitzkis
reputation, which has already
been elevated enormously during
this series as hes ignored injury
and illness.
And James is now the target of
all the criticismNowitzki long en-
dured, the one shouldering most
of the blame as things go wrong.
Thats just a part of the game if
youre the star or the face of the
franchise, Nowitzki said Satur-
day. If you win, its great for you,
andeverybodylooks at you. Andif
you lose, youre going to get ham-
mered. Its just part of the busi-
ness. I think we understand that,
weve been around long enough. I
got hammered the last 13 years,
basically. So hopefully this year I
canmake the hammeringgoaway
for a year.
He has two shots at it. The
Mavs can win their first title to-
night, or Tuesday if the Heat force
a seventh game.
That would require a stronger
effort fromJames, who this time a
year ago was coming off his sec-
ond straight MVP award and was
three weeks from becoming
among the most sought-after free
agents in sports history.
Nowhes the guy who cant pro-
duce in the fourth quarters, with
11 total points in five games, the
one with the big name but the pu-
ny stats who had to spend part of
his off day answering all sorts of
questions about whats happened
to him.
Are those 44 minutes per
game youre playing too much?
I wouldnt say its too much. I
dont think so, James said. I
dont feel likeImhurtingmyteam
for the time Im out there. I dont
feel like its too much.
Is something wrong with
your shot technique?
At this point, I dont thinktech-
nique has anything to do with it,
James said. Shots go in, shots
dont go in. I dont stop to think
about my technique or anything
like that.
Are you simply feeling the
pressure of the finals stage?
I think the game of basketball
can be pressure, James said. It
doesnt matter if its the finals or
the conference finals or first
round. Playoff basketball is all
about pressure, how you can han-
dle it.
James didallowthat perhaps he
hasnt been as aggressive in the
fourth quarter because Dwyane
Wade has been playing so well.
Wade is averaging 28.4 points
11 more than James, who also
trails Chris Bosh.
Hes one of the best players in
the world, Wade said. So were
not necessarily concerned about
him to that extent. I want him to
play and feel confident.
James noted that he did have a
triple-double last game, but even
with17points, 10rebounds and10
assists, he said, I had a bad game
in a lot of peoples eyes. I under-
stand that.
Nowitzki knows the feeling. He
has beenthelonebigstar onaDal-
lasteamthatswon50gamesfor11
straight seasons, yet hes known
best for his failures: the collapse
after a 2-0 lead over Miami in the
2006 finals, the first-round loss to
eighth-seeded Golden State in the
first roundthe next year after win-
ning 67 games.
He was tagged as soft a label
manyEuropeanplayers receive
and given derisive nicknames
such as No-win-ski or No-ring-ski.
But he showed plenty of tough-
ness Saturday when he fired back
at Wade and James after they ap-
peared to be mocking his recent
illness on a video that made the
rounds Friday.
Nowitzki called it a little chil-
dish, a little ignorant, but denied
that it would give him any added
motivation to claim the ring hes
been chasing for 13 years.
Were one win away from my
dream, what Ive worked on for
half my life, Nowitzki said. This
is really all Imworriedabout, this
is all Imfocusing on, and not real-
ly the off-the-court stuff that hap-
pened.
James and Wade downplayed
the video, but even if their inten-
tions werent malicious, it gave
Heat haters yet another reason to
dislike the team that already pro-
vided so many from the moment
they came together last summer.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. Robert
Karlsson shot a 2-under 68 Satur-
day to remain atop the leader-
board through three rounds at
the St. Jude Classic.
Karlsson looked ready to run
away fromthe field, leading by as
much as five strokes on the back
nine. But the Swede closed with
his only bogeys of the day on the
final twoholes, droppingto11un-
der and one stroke ahead of Har-
rison Frazar.
Frazar said he thought Karls-
son was in total control of the
tournament so he focused only
on playing. He got hot and bird-
ied three of his final four holes to
finish with a 64 that got himto10
under. That included rolling in a
42-footer for birdie on No. 18.
John Merrick (67) is third, fol-
lowed by Retief Goosen, who
turned in the best 18-hole score
this week at TPC Southwind be-
fore being matched by Frazar.
Fredrik Jacobson (68) and Kee-
ganBradley (70) are tiedfor fifth.
Karlsson, 41, is in his first full
year on the PGA Tour after earn-
ing an exemption by finishing in
thetop125onthemoneylist with
11events in2010. That includeda
second-place finish here a year
ago, whenhe lost a four-hole play-
off to Lee Westwood in his best
showing yet on the tour.
He is trying to become the sev-
enth first-time winner on tour
this year and the first player to
win his first title in Memphis
since Dicky Pride in 1994.
But Karlsson is no stranger to
closing out tournaments. He has
won 11 times on the European
Tour and has yet shoot over par
on this course in seven rounds.
Robert looks like hes not go-
ing to fall back, Goosen said.
Playing really solid. Need to get
another round like this in tomor-
rowtoget a chance tocatchhim.
Of course, Goosen made his re-
marks before Karlssons final two
holes.
Karlsson was leading by four
until he bogeyed No. 17 after
sticking his approach into a
greenside bunker. He blasted out
to 14 feet and just missed the par
putt. Frazar finished up on 18
with his big birdie putt, and
Karlssons second shot on the fi-
nal hole landed well right of the
green.
With water on the other side,
Karlssons chip bounced once
and stopped in the longer grass
short of the green. Trying to save
par, he came up 2 feet short and
settled for a bogey that trimmed
his lead to a mere stroke.

EASTBOURNE, England Fit
again after the toughest injury lay-
off of her career, Venus Williams
said Saturday that a sixth Wimble-
don title is within her reach de-
spite more than four months off
the tour.
Williams, 30, will play her first
match since January at the East-
bourne International grass-court
tournament next week after reco-
vering from a hip injury.
Shewill bejoinedat theWimble-
don warmup by younger sister Se-
rena, who hasnt played in nearly a
year since winninga fourthsingles
title at the All England Club.
In terms of winning these tour-
naments, thats what we are here
for, Venussaid. Werenot herefor
results, so we are going to do our
best totakehometwotitles onthis
road.
Whether it can happen ... re-
mains to be seen. But thats what
we aim for every time we hit the
court.
Venus will play Andrea Petkovic
of Germany in the first round at
Eastbourne. Petkovic was her op-
ponent when she had to retire be-
cause of the injury from a third-
round match at the Australian
Open.
Serena Williams has been side-
lined because of foot surgery and
bloodclots inher lung. She return-
ed to practice in April and will
open her Eastbourne campaign
against Tsvetana Pironkova of Bul-
garia.
Manyplayers wouldbehappyto
simply ease back into competitive
action, but that attitude isnt inthe
Williams sisters psyche.
It says a lot about the state of
womens tennis that thesisters will
be considered contenders for the
Wimbledon title should they
emerge unscathed from East-
bourne.
Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark
is ranked No. 1 but hasnt won a
Grand Slam title.

Venus readies for Eastbourne tourney after injury layoff
CHARLESTON, W.Va.
Last December, Oliver Luck
brimmed with confidence that
offensive coordinator Dana Hol-
gorsen, a night owl, and lame-
duck coach Bill Stewart, an
early riser and family man,
could work together in a unique
arrangement for the 2011 sea-
son.
Unhappy about the Moun-
taineers lack of production,
West Virginias athletic director
hired Holgorsen away from Ok-
lahoma State, where his offense
had put up ridiculous numbers.
Holgorsen would run West Vir-
ginias offense while Stewart
would coach the team one final
season before slipping into an
administrative job.
Six months later, the arrange-
ment had fallen apart, and now
Holgorsen, two weeks shy of his
40th birthday, is a college head
coach for the first time.
At the time, I thought it
made a lot of sense, Luck said
Friday night. I thought it was
good management practice.
With hindsight, folks could cer-
tainly disagree.
Stewart resigned Friday dur-
ing a meeting with Luck, clear-
ing the way for Holgorsens pro-
motion and capping a tumultu-
ous two weeks in which both
Holgorsen and Stewart made
headlines for the wrong rea-
sons.
An intoxicated Holgorsen
was escorted out of a casino last
month, although no charges
were filed. More recently, a re-
porter said Stewart had ap-
proached him shortly after Hol-
gorsens hiring to dig up dirt
on his eventual successor.
During a news conference in
Morgantown, both Holgorsen
and Luck tried to sidestep ques-
tions about the issues that had
gotten the university plenty of
media attention. Luck said the
recent developments had to be
addressed.
I think it was a combination
of things, Luck said. The pro-
gram ... is more important than
any individual, is more impor-
tant than any coach, any player,
and clearly, this was becoming a
distraction for our football pro-
gram.
It was the right thing to do.
Holgorsen will carry dual du-
ties as offensive coordinator and
headcoachinthe upcomingsea-
sonandwill hire anoffensive co-
ordinator down the road.
This is the chance of a life-
time. I understand that, Hol-
gorsen said.
He said he had yet to talk to
his players but said nothing has
changed as far as focus goes.
Kids are resilient, Holgor-
sen said. Change is tough, but
its least tough on kids. The one
thing that will be preached ev-
ery day is unity.
Growing up in Mount Pleas-
ant, Iowa, Holgorsen recalled
watching the teams of WVU
Hall of Fame coachDonNehlen,
who led the Mountaineers to
two undefeated regular seasons
and retired after the 2000 sea-
son.
He set the standard for what
its like here, both on and off the
field, Holgorsen said. And I
look forward to living up to
those standards as well. ... I un-
derstand what the expectations
are to wear the blue and gold,
you know, and those expecta-
tions both on and off the field
are something I look forward to
living up to.

MINNEAPOLIS Jakes Sta-
dium Pizza has been a fast-food
fixture on the Minnesota State
University campus for nearly
four decades. This summer,
theyre cooking that thin crust
with crossed fingers in Mankato,
Minn.
The NFLlockout, nowheaded
toward its fourth month, is
threatening a revenue-driving,
profile-raising event for this
small, family-owned business:
Vikings training camp.
Were hoping they get it
done, because its not just us. Its
the whole state that will suffer,
said Wally Boyer, the owner of
the joint where players from Jim
Marshall to John Randle have re-
cuperated after many a draining
workout. Fans, too, have long
made that familiar walk down
Stadium Road after watching
practice to fill up and cool off.
If the work stoppage lingers
long enough to keep teams from
holding traditional training
camps, the hit would be felt far
beyond Minnesota, and it
wouldnt just be about losing
money.
In upstate New York, the Jets
have trained on the SUNY Cor-
tland campus the last two years.
Just their presence alone has
stimulated people. Its just good
for the mental health of the com-
munity, said Cortland State
football coach Dan MacNeill.
For our people, its been fun. It
has impacted the football pro-
gram. We dont have normal use
of our facilities. But an NFLfran-
chise, no matter where you go,
theres a heck of a following.
Seventeen of the 32 NFL
teams last year held training
camp at their year-round facili-
ties, reflecting a trend toward
cost-and-time efficiency in an
era in which chemistry is built
and conditioning established
well before the two-a-day grind
in August.
But the other 15 teams still
take their show on the road,
many of them to slower-paced
cities and small colleges where
their presence is a big deal
and a big financial boon.
Some people make a summer
vacation out of watching their
favorite team run drills and
scrimmages. Day-trippers at
least stop for a bite to eat on the
way out of town.
The Cardinals have held camp
at Northern Arizona University
in Flagstaff since 1988, and the
schools Rural Policy Institute
estimated it brought $7 million
to the local economy last year,
with an overall impact of $10
million. There were over 38,000
visitors, 81percent of those from
out of town, along with 122 jobs
created by the camp.
In southern Minnesota, a 90-
minute drive from the Twin Ci-
ties, Vikings training camp
makes a $5 million impact on
the region, said Anna Thill,
president of the Greater Man-
kato Convention and Visitors
Bureau. Last year, it drew
60,000 visitors from at least
30 states, and a few foreign
countries.
The university charges $7
for parking near the practice
fields, but thats only part of
the story. The school also re-
ceives tremendous exposure.
They do bring people here,
and young people are intro-
duced to the campus. Theres
certainly a marketing value to
the Vikings being here that is
difficult to determine, said
Michael Cooper, the universi-
tys media relations director.
Whether its Westminster,
Md., Anderson, Ind., or Spar-
tanburg, S.C., the reflected
glamour of having an NFL
team in town for a few weeks
can go a long way.
You cant put a price on it,
to be honest. Newspaper arti-
cles go out every day that have
Georgetown, Ky., as the date-
line. It puts the community on
the map, said John Simpson,
executive director of the Geor-
getown/Scott County Tou-
rism Commission. The Ben-
gals train at Georgetown Col-
lege, about 100 miles south of
Cincinnati.
The Vikings presence was
enough to get Jakes Stadium
Pizza a mention in Sports Il-
lustrated once. Boyer said his
business spikes about 20 per-
cent during camp.
Its a lot of frosting on the
cake, he said.

FULLERTON, Calif. Janet
Evans hasnt lost her touch for
breaking world records, setting
new Masters marks in the 35-39
age group 15 years after her last
competitive race.
The four-time Olympic gold
medalist swam the 400-meter
freestyle in 4 minutes, 23.82 sec-
onds Saturday at the Janet
Evans Invita-
tional and four
hours later she
shattered the
800-freestyle
record with a
time of 8:59.06.
I think it re-
ally shows me
where my
training is and its right about
where I thought it was, Evans
said.
The 39-year-old mother of two
returned to the pool in October
in an attempt to qualify for the
2012 London Olympics. The 400
Saturday was her first competi-
tive race since the 1996 Atlanta
Games, where she failed to qual-
ify for the 400 freestyle and fin-
ished sixth in the 800 freestyle.
It was really good. I wanted
to go 4:30 so I was really happy,
she said after the 400.
Evans has been training under
longtime coach Mark Schubert.
I thought well, well do it for
three months and well see how
its going, Schubert said. She
just always said, Just be honest
with me, if you dont think I can
do this tell me and Ill stop.
Her practices just got better
and better. She was surprising
me all the time in practice and
surprising herself.
Evans tore through the water
Saturday with the same vora-
cious strokes that made her fa-
mous more than 20 years ago.
She was 17 when she set the
world record in the 400 freestyle
in winning one of three gold
medals at the 1988 Seoul
Games, and later set world
marks in the 800 and1,500 frees-
tyle.
I was pleased with my time,
said Evans, who swam solo in
the 800. I know theres some
things I need to work on and I
know exactly what they are, so I
think its good.

orget the written warning.
Thats the first step that a Penn-
sylvania Game Commission Wild-
life Conservation Officer is supposed to
take when they encounter someone
intentionally feeding bears.
Based on what happened last week at
Merli-Sarnoski Park in Lackawanna
County, I think its time that WCOs forgo
the written warning and skip right to
issuing citations, which carry a $100 to
$200 fine.
Heres what happened.
Afewweeks ago the PGCNortheast
Regional Office was made aware of a bear
visiting the parks beach and picnic areas.
Those visiting the park got a kick out of
seeing a bear and decided to feed it. At
first the bear would approach to within
yards of people to accept a handout. As
the easy meals became more frequent,
the once-wild bear began to approach
within feet and even inches.
Anglers at the park tossed the bear
bluegills and perch. There are pictures of
a young man lying on the ground within
inches of the bear and another with the
bruin on top of a picnic table while peo-
ple sat on the benches.
It was a hoot.
And it was also deadly for the bear.
AWCOrecently went to the park and
found the bear in the picnic area after it
was closed. Hoping to chase the bear
away once and for all, the WCOfired
non-lethal rubber buckshot at the bruin,
forcing the animal to flee into the woods.
But it came back, and some park-goers
ignored warnings and continued to feed
the bear.
They basically fed it to death.
Considering the bear was nowhab-
ituated to eating out of peoples hands,
the PGCwas left with no choice but to
dispatch it.
The risk was too great.
I dont think people realize howenor-
mously powerful these animals are, said
TimConway, the PGCs information and
education supervisor for the northeast
region. Even getting swatted by a bear
can cause a tremendous amount of dam-
age to a person.
That includes the 75-pound male that
used to roamthe picnic area at Merli-
Sarnoski Park.
Conway said putting a bear down is a
last resort, and its something that WCOs
dont like to do.
But when people continue to feed one,
they are unknowingly sealing the bears
fate. Abruin that has grown accustomed
to being fed by people usually cant be
relocated to another area because it will
just seek out more handouts frommore
people.
Its a pattern of behavior that cant
continue.
Eventually what would happen is the
bear could possibly turn on somebody,
Conway said. We just cant take that
chance.
Perhaps the saddest thing of all is the
entire situation couldve been avoided by
simply resisting the temptation to feed a
bear.
Its that simple.
Unfortunately, the feeding of bears
isnt limited to the incident at Merli-
Sarnoski Park. Conway said there are
bear complaints and issues being gener-
ated fromall over the region.
We are getting bombarded with bear
problems and its probably one of the
worst years Ive ever seen, he said. Our
WCOs are running ragged responding to
themall.
And that means the potential for a
bear-feeding situation to escalate into a
bear-human conflict is very real.
We have been steadfast in our mess-
age, year after year, that feeding wildlife,
especially black bears, will only end in
trouble, said Steve Schweitzer, the
PGCs Northeast Region Office director.
Now, maybe its time that such in-
cidents end in fines.

PERHAPSNOTHINGPUTSan end to
a long winter and a rainy spring than a
warm, summer day spent catching
largemouth bass on a farmpond or
smallmouths in the Susquehanna River.
Anglers will have the opportunity to do
just that when bass season for all in-
land lakes, ponds and rivers opens on
Saturday. . Soon after, numerous bass
tournaments will kick off across Lu-
zerne County and the northeast region.
Just as the opening day of trout marks
the start of the fishing season, the first
day of bass starts the summer fishing
season, said John Arway, executive
director of the Pennsylvania Fish and
Boat Commission. This spring was
pretty wet and cold and we sawlicense
sales fall. But weve got a long summer
ahead of us and plenty of excellent
fishing available all around the state. I
think anglers will be excited for the
warmweather and will be out in large
numbers.
KIDDER TWP. On his
back, right shoulder and an-
kle, Juan Rivera carries re-
minders of the year he served
in Iraq.
Rivera, 32, suffered injuries
in those places while he was
deployed to Iraq from 2004 to
2005.
But, even
worse than
the wounds,
he lost sever-
al close
friends in
Iraq, includ-
ing Spc.
Segun Akin-
tade, whose
name is en-
graved on a
bracelet that
Rivera wears
on his wrist.
For five days last week,
Rivera was able to put behind
the pain of his injuries and the
haunting reminders of the
friends he lost. He did it by
taking his family to Francis
Walter Dam to participate in a
Wounded Warriors outing.
Wounded Warriors is a
rehabilitative program that
helps soldiers wounded in
Afghanistan and Iraq to recov-
er and transition back into
civilian life.
Last weeks event was host-
ed by Hunts for Healing and
the U.S. Army Corps of Engi-
neers, and Rivera and his
family were kept busy with a
variety of outdoors activities,
including fishing, geocaching,
whitewater rafting and hiking.
You just focus on so many
other things when youre out
here, said Rivera, who lives
in Staten Island, N.Y. We stay
busy constantly, but we also
have plenty of time to just
relax in such a quiet place.
Thats what I really like.
Several mentors help out
with each Wounded Warrior
outing, and most are veterans
themselves. Even though they
didnt sustain physical injuries
when they served, the men-
tors also find healing simply
by helping out other veterans.
Working with these guys is
just as healing for me as it is
for them, said Mike Dreisch,
a Gulf War veteran who also
served in Somalia. You get a
sense of family when youre
doing this.
Much of that family atmo-
sphere is made possible by
Mindy Piccotti, director of
Hunts for Healing. Piccotti
owns Ringneck Ridge Hunting
Preserve in Laceyville and
uses the facility to host eight
to 10 Wounded Warrior out-
ings each year.
Piccotti is passionate about
her Hunts for Healing pro-
gram and the Wounded War-
rior outings, partly because
she is a veteran herself, having
served as an Army medic
during Vietnam.
Piccotti was 18 years old at
the time and she found herself
treating wounded soldiers
with serious, life-threatening
injuries. Many times, Piccotti
said, the soldiers would ask
her if they would be all right.
All too often she couldnt give
them an answer.
But with Hunts for Healing
and the Wounded Warrior
programs, Piccotti can do
something to create a positive
outcome for those who
served.
I have answers for them
now, she said. Were all
getting healed.
Whether its through a
pheasant hunt at Ringneck
Ridge or spending a week
outdoors at the Francis Walter
Dam, Piccotti said nature
provides the ultimate remedy
for the wounded soldiers.
Theyre coming back and
theyre connecting out here,
she said. If you get out there
in the morning and just listen
to the woods wake up, youll
get something out of it. Youll
heal.
Larry White, who helps as a
mentor and is a veteran of
Desert Storm and Iraqi Free-
dom, said last weeks Wound-
ed Warrior outing was unique
because the activities were
designed to include entire
families.
When they sustain an in-
jury over there, it affects the
entire family unit, White
said. These activities are
designed to embrace the fam-
ily spirit and strengthen it.
Thats a special person that
has come back a hero. We
want to give them a place
where they can heal and
bond.
Rivera did just that. He said
he and his children were able
to fish for the first time and,
despite his injuries, he even
went on a bike ride with his
kids.
We learned how to fish and
the biking was a challenge but
it was fun, Rivera said. Be-
ing here is just so relaxing and
quiet and everyone has been
so supportive of myself and
my family. It really gives you a
positive outlook on things.

SHAD POPULATIONS DOWN IN PA.: The Pennsylvania
Fish and Boat Commission is seeking public comment on
the addition of Susquehanna River American shad to the
state Wildlife Action Plan, the document that prescribes
conservation measures for species and their critical habitat
before they become rarer and more costly to protect and
restore.
Populations of American shad have been considerably
reduced throughout the East Coast, including Pennsylvania,
primarily as a result of dams which have impeded move-
ment of fish to spawning areas, said Dave Day, PFBC
conservation coordinator.
Adding the species to the state Wildlife Action Plan would
highlight the importance of this species and would provide
the commission with more flexibility to fund, or receive
funding for, projects that benefit the species within the
drainage of the Susquehanna River.
Public comments will be accepted online or in writing
through Wednesday, July 6. Comments can be submitted
online at: http://fishandboat.com/promo/form/
swg_amend.htm. Written comments must be postmarked
no later than July 6. Written comments must be post-
marked no later than July 6 and should be sent to: Amer-

VACATIONERS TURN OUT FOR FISH-FOR-FREE DAY:
Hundreds of vacationers from across the state participated
in half a dozen special fishing events held on Memorial Day,
the first of two statewide Fish-For-Free Days this year
hosted by the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission.
This year we decided to try something different and hold
the Fish-For-Free events on holidays, said PFBC Executive
Director John Arway. We know that many families and
their friends spend these holidays at parks and waterways.
Our events made it easy for adults and kids who had never
fished before to learn the basics of the sport at their favor-
ite vacation spots.
Fish-for-Free Days allow anyone (resident or non-resident)
to legally fish. No fishing license is required to fish on these
days. All other fishing regulations apply. The second Fish-
for-Free Day is Labor Day, Sept. 5.
The PFBCs staff held fishing programs, conducted demon-
strations and distributed fishing and boating information at
six popular waterways, including Lake Wallenpaupack.
The events were held in conjunction with Cabelas Wanna
Go Fishing for Millions? national contest. As part of the
contest, fish were tagged in eight waters. Every tag carries
a prize. The Cabelas contest started May 14 and runs
through July 14. Anglers can register through the PFBC
website at www.fishandboat.com/fishformillions.htm for a
chance at landing the $2.2 million prize. So far, anglers
have landed nearly a dozen prize-winning fish from state
waters.
And with the popular bass season beginning June18, the
PFBC expects more contest fish to be caught.
More information on where to find bass and how to catch
them is available on the PFBC website at: http://fishand-
boat.com/bass.htm. Among the tools anglers can use are
interactive maps, which allow users to search for waters by
name or county.

2011 U. S. OPEN PREVI EW
BETHESDA, Md. (AP) A look at some
of the anniversaries of this years 111th
U.S. Open, to be played June 16-19 at
Congressional:
100 years ago (1911): John McDermott
became the first American-born player
to win a major, and at 19, he remains the
youngest player to ever win the U.S.
Open. One year after losing to Alex
Smith in a playoff, McDermott nearly
blew the U.S. Open at Chicago Golf Club
by closing with a 79. McDermott made a
birdie on the 18th hole to force a playoff,
and he shot 80 the next day to defeat
Mike Brady (82) and George Simpson
(86).
75 years ago (1936): Tony Manero won
his only major championship, closing
with a 67 at Baltusrol to deny Harry
Lighthorse Cooper in the second
straight major of 1936. Cooper, who blew
a three-shot lead over Horton Smith at
the Masters, was four shots clear of
Manero going into the final 18 holes of
the U.S. Open. But on the Upper Course
at Baltusrol, Manero charged past him
and to win by two shots.
50 years ago (1961): Gene Littler won
his only major in the U.S. Open at Oak-
land Hills, closing with a 68 for a one-
shot victory over Bob Goalby and Doug
Sanders, the 54-hole leader. Jack Nick-
laus, in his final major as an amateur,
tied for fourth. Littler became the eighth
player to win a U.S. Amateur and U.S.
Open title. This U.S. Open also was note-
worthy for being the first time since
1940 that Ben Hogan failed to finish in
the top 10. He closed with rounds of
73-73 to tie for 14th.
25 years ago (1986): Raymond Floyd
was 43 when he won at Shinnecock Hills
to become the oldest U.S. Open cham-
pion, a record that would only last four
years. It came two months after Jack
Nicklaus won the Masters at age 46. The
U.S. Open returned to Shinnecock Hills
for the first time in 90 years, and the
course put up a strong fight with its
vicious wind in the early rounds. Floyd
closed with a 66 to rally against Greg
Norman, who had the 54-hole lead in
every major that year and captured only
one of them.
10 years ago (2001): Retief Goosen of
South Africa won his first U.S. Open in a
major that proved Tiger Woods to be
mortal. Woods had just won an unprece-
dented fourth successive major, but he
was no match for Southern Hills in the
U.S. Open and he tied for 12th. Goosen
won a playoff that should never have
been. With a one-shot lead, he missed a
12-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole, then
missed the short par putt and fell into a
tie with Mark Brooks. Earlier, Stewart
Cink was trying to clear the stage and
missed an 18-inch putt that he felt was
meaningless. Turns out it cost him a
spot in the playoff. Goosen shot 70 to
beat Brooks by two shots in the playoff.
5 years ago (2006): Geoff Ogilvy hit a
beautiful chip to 6 feet and holed the
par putt on the 18th hole for what he
figured would be good enough for sec-
ond place in at Winged Foot. Phil Mick-
elson had a one-shot lead when he
drove into the left rough, struck a tree
with his next shot while going for the
green, found a plugged lie in the bunker
and wound up making double bogey to
lose by one shot. Ogilvy closed with a 72
to finish on 5-over 285. He became the
first U.S. Open champion since Hale
Irwin in 1974 at Winged Foot to win
without breaking par in any round.
U. S. OPEN HI STORY
BETHESDA, Md. (AP) Facts
and figures for the 111th U.S.
Open golf championship:
Dates: June 16-19.
Site: Congressional Country
Club (Blue Course).
The course: Devereux Emmet
designed the original course,
which opened in 1924. The club
was used for training by the
Office of Strategic Services
during World War II. After the
war, the club hired Robert
Trent Jones to revamp the
course and make it worthy of a
U.S. Open. His son, Rees
Jones, has since remodeled
the course. It has hosted the
U.S. Open in 1964, 1997 and
2011, along with the 1976 PGA
Championship. The PGA Tour
has held 10 tournaments at
Congressional the Kemper
Open, Booz Allen Classic and
AT&T National.
Length: 7,574 yards.
Par: 36-3571.
Format: 72 holes of stroke
play.
Cut: Top 60 and ties, and
anyone within 10 strokes of the
lead after 36 holes.
Playoff, if necessary: 18 holes
of stroke play on June 20.
Field: 156 players.
Purse: TBA ($7.5 million in
2010).
Winners share: TBA ($1.35
million in 2010)
Defending champion: Graeme
McDowell.
Last year: Graeme McDowell
of Northern Ireland became
the first European in 40 years
to win the U.S. Open. He made
only one birdie in a final round
of 3-over 74 for a one-shot
victory over Gregory Havret.
Dustin Johnson began the
final round with a three-shot
lead, only to make triple bogey
on the second hole on his way
to an 82, opening the way for
Ernie Els, Phil Mickelson and
Tiger Woods to take advan-
tage. Woods bogeyed five of
his opening 10 holes. Els and
Mickelson stayed in the game
through the back nine. No one
could catch McDowell, who
finished at even-par 284.
Last time at Congressional:
Ernie Els won his second
U.S. Open by closing with a
1-under 69. He hit 5-iron into
the dangerous 17th for par,
then made a 5-foot par putt on
the 18th. Tom Lehman hit into
the water on the 17th, while
Colin Montgomerie missed a
par putt on the 17th to miss
another chance in a major.
U.S. Open champions at Con-
gressional: Ken Venturi (1964),
Ernie Els (1997).
Tiger Tales: Tiger Woods will
not play the U.S. Open (leg
injuries) for the first time since
1994.
Noteworthy: Americans have
not finished among the top
three in three of the last four
majors.
Key statistic: Ten players
have won the last 10 majors.
FA C T S A N D
F I G U R E S
Four players have taken their
turns at No. 1, the highest num-
ber between U.S. Opens in the
25-year history of the world
ranking. Four players won their
first major in the last 12 months.
Four others captured their first
World Golf Championship.
And its largely because of a
guy whos not even playing.
The presence Tiger Woods
brings to golf is felt even more
strongly in his absence.
Woods will not be at Congres-
sional, missing the U.S. Open for
the first time in17 years because
of lingering injuries to his left
leg. Some could argue he has
been missing for the last year as
he has tried to mend his personal
life, his health and his golf swing.
He has gone 18 months without
winning, paving the way for a
newgeneration of stars to
emerge.
And they have.
Graeme McDowell started it
off by winning the U.S. Open at
Pebble Beach, and he peeled
back a massive layer of Woods
mystique at the end of the year
by overcoming a four-shot deficit
in the final round and beating
himin a playoff at the Chevron
World Challenge.
Louis Oosthuizen (British
Open), Martin Kaymer (PGA
Championship) and Charl
Schwartzel (Masters) all of
themin their 20s won the
next three majors. Lee Westwood
ended Woods five-year stay atop
the world ranking, and Kaymer
and Luke Donald since have
gone to No. 1in the world during
the last four months.
None of that seemed possible
when Woods was on top of his
game, dominating to such a
degree that he won nearly 30
percent of his tournaments and
made it look as though no one
else had a chance.
Are players getting better? Or
were they always this good and
no one noticed as long as Woods
was winning so often? Maybe it
takes Woods being gone to real-
ize just howgood he was.
Some of the younger players
came along when Tiger was on a
tear, and they were in his shad-
ow, Mark OMeara said. He
was bigger than life. But now
that Tiger is somewhat removed
fromthe game, theyve been able
to shine.
With the absence of Woods
and to a lesser extent, Phil Mick-
elson, who has only one win in
the last year the newland-
scape in golf features parity not
seen in some 20 years. When the
111th edition of the U.S. Open
begins outside the nations cap-
ital in Bethesda, Md., no one will
stand out as a clear favorite.
Tiger has been the dominant
player in this generation, really
since the mid-90s, Stewart Cink
said. Eventually, he wont be
anymore. Maybe thats already
happening we dont know. He
won so many tournaments, may-
be there were just less available
to win.
That sounds like Colin Mont-
gomeries theory fromyears ago
on why it was so hard to win
majors. Montgomerie reasoned
that Woods was winning two a
year, leaving only two majors for
everyone else.
Now, theyre all up for grabs.
Ten players have won the last
10 majors. Only two of those
players, Mickelson and Angel
Cabrera, had won before. The
last time Woods had to skip a
major, because of season-ending
knee surgery in 2008, there was
debate whether an asterisk
would be placed next to the
winners name because Woods
wasnt in the field.
There will be no talk of an
asterisk at Congressional.
Even if Woods were around,
this U.S. Open lives up to its
name open.
Anybody can win, Davis
Love III said. You cant say its
going to be either Tiger or Phil
or (Jim) Furyk or Luke Donald.
Its wide open. Its like when
Greg Norman was the favorite
and everybody looked to him. I
dont knowif you can pick a
favorite for the U.S. Open.
The U.S. Open is known as the
toughest test in golf, and the
challenges come fromall over.
The fairways are narrow, the
rough tends to be thick, the
greens as firmas any all year. Par
tends to be a good score at the
U.S. Open, and par can some-
times feel like a birdie.
McDowell won at Pebble
Beach last year at even-par 284.
Four of the last six U.S. Opens
have been won at even par or
worse.
I knowImgoing to have to
prepare myself for the feeling
that I amplaying badly, even
when Imnot, former U.S. Open
champion Geoff Ogilvy said. I
have to convince myself that par
golf or even1or 2 over is
good. Its just so different from
any other week on tour.
Even the golf course is differ-
ent fromthe last U.S. Open at
Congressional in1997, won by
Ernie Els.
The closing hole was a par 3,
which proved to be anticlimactic.
The championship effectively
was decided on the 17th, when
Montgomerie stood forever over
a 5-foot par putt before missing
it, and TomLehman in the last
group pulled a 7-iron into the
water. Rees Jones again has
tweaked the course, and the 17th
hole from1997 is nowthe 523-
yard18th hole.
The old No. 18 has been
flipped around, and nowis a
daunting par-310th.
Players champion K.J. Choi,
Anthony Kimand Woods have
won at Congressional in the
three years it hosted the AT&T
National. That might not mean
anything with the course set up
as a major.
The best bet might be some-
one fromoutside the United
States.
For one thing, out of all the
majors, Americans have had the
least success in their national
open during the last 10 years
just four wins, with two of those
by Woods. International players
have won the last four majors,
and another victory would mark
the longest drought in the majors
for an American since the Mas-
ters began in1934.
And perhaps even more trou-
blesome for American players
they have been shut out of the
top three in the Masters, British
Open and U.S. Open dating to
last year.
The headliners, if there is such
a thing these days, would start
with the guys at the top of the
ranking.
Donald has finished in the top
10 in his last 10 tournaments
worldwide, and his chipping and
putting would seemto be a good
fit for the U.S. Open. Westwood
has the most experience con-
tending in a major, even though
he hasnt won yet. It was only
three years ago when he stood
over a 15-foot birdie putt on the
last hole at Torrey Pines to get
into a playoff, only to leave it
short.
He also missed a par putt that
kept himout of a playoff at Turn-
berry, and he lost a 54-hole lead
to Mickelson at the Masters.
American golf is not as bad as
it might seemat the moment.
Finishing off majors is a different
story. A year ago, Dustin Johnson
had a three-shot lead going into
the last round and shot 82, the
highest score in the U.S. Open by
a 54-hole leader in nearly 100
years. Nick Watney had a three-
shot lead at the PGA Champion-
ship last year and shot 80.
Thats not exclusive to Amer-
icans, though. Rory McIlroy of
Northern Ireland had a four-shot
lead going into the final round at
the Masters this year, and the
22-year-old closed with an 80.
I dont knowhowDustin and
Nick were feeling whenever they
were going into the last round
leading, but its a newexperi-
ence, McIlroy said. Theyre
majors, and you want to try and
get your first one out of the way
and kick on.
McIlroys mistake eventually
allowed Schwartzel to win. John-
sons blunders gave way to
McDowell, while Watneys blow-
up in the PGA Championship
ultimately set the stage for
Kaymer to win in a playoff over
Bubba Watson (only after John-
son was penalized for a bunker
he didnt knowhe was in). All of
themare young, all were newto
major championship experience.
Such is the way golf is going at
the moment, especially with
Woods not much of a factor on
the golf course and not a
factor at all as long as hes at
home trying to heal himself.
Parity one major factor
Tour play hasnt been so wide open since 90s

sey Kahne in 2004 but strong
enough for the pole.
What was more impressive is
Busch did so in his backup car af-
ter wrecking his main ride in the
second practice session Friday.
Quite a bit of emotions today,
especiallyafter havingtobust out
the backup car from yesterdays
mishap, Busch said. To go out
there today, if it was raining wed
be starting last. Luckily the
weather heldout andwereonthe
pole.
Weather was
a big worry Sat-
urday as gray
clouds hovered
over the track.
It was even a
bigger concern
for Busch, who
would have
started in the
back of the field
if qualifying
was rained out.
Precipitation
held off
through quali-
fying, although
there was a
slight mist in
the air at the
start of the AR-
CArace that fol-
lowed. The AR-
CA race ended
after 58 of 80
laps because of
fog.
It was an amazing swing of
events, Busch said. Just an hon-
est thank you to my guys, espe-
cially the ones back at the shop
preparing the cars. To pull the
backup out thats a pole-winning
car, thats something you really
wouldnt hear about back in the
day.
Equally surprising was Paul
Menard, who gained the second
startingpositionandwill takethe
green flag a little after 1 p.m. to-
day alongside Busch. Menard
had been terrible in qualifying at
Pocono in his eight races at the
track, startingnobetter than17th
and 33rd or worse four times.
Menard admitted he was hop-
ingfor rain, wherethefieldwould
have then been set by practice
speed from Fridays first session.
(The fieldwouldhave beenset by
owners points only if Fridays
practices and Saturdays qualify-
ing were rained out).
We definitely thought it
would rain out qualifying today,
said Menard, who drives the No.
27 Chevrolet for Richard Chil-
dress Racing. So we did one
mock run (Friday) early in prac-
tice to try to post a good time.
Kinda thought that would be our
qualifying run, honestly.
Carl Edwards was the fastest
driver in Fridays first practice,
but couldnt duplicate the feat in
qualifying. He wobbled his No.
99 Ford between turns 2 and 3
and settled for sixth, his best
start in a June Pocono race since
earning the same spot in 2008.
Regan Smith, who will start
fifth, held the pole throughout
the middle portion of qualifying
until a couple Pocono heavy hit-
ters took their laps. Denny Ham-
lin bumped Smith and then he
was bumped by Jeff Gordon be-
fore Busch took control a short
time later. Gordon will start third
and Hamlin fourth. Both lead ac-
tive drivers with four Pocono vic-
tories each.
I got a little concerned right
before I went out because there
were a couple of good cars that
werent getting themselves in the
top10, Gordonsaid. (Greg) Bif-
fle went like two cars before me
and he was way back.

LONGPONDSamHornish
Jr. got the call from Front Row
Motorsports a week ago offering
him a one-race deal opportunity
for todays 5-Hour Energy 500,
the Sprint Cup Series race at Po-
cono Raceway. For some, a race
at the triangular track would be a
daunting task met with dread.
But not Hornish.
With six career starts at Poco-
no, Hornish has an average finish
of 17th.
If I wouldnt have been such
an idiot the first time I came here
(he finished 42nd) then it would
have been a lot better than that,
Hornish, 31, said while standing
infront of his teams hauler inthe
garage area at the 2.5-mile race-
track in Monroe County.
That first time I came here I
qualified 41st and I finished
42nd. I was involvedinthreeacci-
dents before the halfway point,
said Hornish, recalling the June
8, 2008 race.
He learned that day that the
track is unforgiving, patience is a
virtue and the goal isnt to be up
front earlybut tobeincontention
at the end. Using his open-wheel
racing skills, hes made the most
of his limited runs at Pocono.
The three-time IndyCar cham-
pion and 2006 winner of the In-
dianapolis 500 has four top-10
finishes in his six races at the
track, including a fourth-place
finish in the August 2008 race.
I love coming here, Hornish
said. Its one of my favorite
tracks on the circuit. A lot of oth-
er people dont like it. I dont
know why.
He has never won a Sprint Cup
series race, but he has two top-
five finishes, including one at Po-
cono.
Hornish had spent the past
three years racing in the No. 77
Mobile1 Racing car owned by
Roger Penske. When the sponsor
pulled out after last year, Penske
opted to run a one-car operation
with the No. 2 Miller Lite Dodge
driven by Brad Keselowski and
Hornish, still under contract but
without a Cup ride, turned to
driving part time for Penske in
the Nationwide Series. In five
races in that NASCAR circuit, he
has one top-10 finish and sits
26th in the standings.
But hes never lost hope that he
would get some one-off rides
on the Sprint Cup series this
year.
Even when I knewI wasnt go-
ing to be running full time in the
Cup series, I said I hope I get
something at Pocono. Of all the
places I thought that I might get
an opportunity to come and run
at this was the one I thought I
had the best chance.
Hornishsaidhis solidrecordat
the track, plus the fact he lives in
Defiance, Ohio about the same
distance from Pocono in miles
(515) as the Pocono race itself
(500) made Pocono a good bet.
He plans to take advantage of the
opportunity that arose because
Travis Kvapil, the normal driver
of the No. 38 Ford, was commit-
ted to race a Camping World
Truck Series race in Texas this
weekend.
Youve got to enjoy coming to
a track where youve had suc-
cess, Hornish said. Im hoping
we can go out there and have a
good time.
And while he noted a win is ev-
ery drivers goal, he said realisti-
cally hes at Pocono to help get
Front RowMotorsports andown-
er BobJenkins intothe all-impor-
tant top 35 in the owners stand-
ings. A spot in the top 35 guaran-
tees a team gets to race each
weekend. Currently, the team is
38th, 22 points behind the 35th
position.
Our big thing is we dont need
a home run. We need a double.
Theyre obviously trying to get
backintothetop35. Mybigthing
for them is to be able to go out
and run a smart race, (stay) out
of trouble and if we can get out of
here with a top 20 that would be
great.
As for plans the rest of the year,
Hornish said theres nothing he
can report. But he knows that a
good run today at Pocono, where
hell start 26th, coulddrawthe at-
tention of other owners looking
for a driver.
Hornish happy just to get a shot at Pocono
Former IndyCar champion has
one-race deal to drive today
for Front Row Motorsports.

Qualifying at 169.728 mph, Sam
Hornish Jr. will start in the
26th position for todays Sprint
Cup race in Long Pond.
Andrew M. Seder, a Times Leader
staff writer, may be reached at 570-
829-7269.
works in a race car, that will be
a real strong statement for bio-
based fuels, Lynch said.
Driver Clint Bowyer agrees.
This whole country needs
to be paying attention to this
American ethanol partner-
ship, Bowyer said. Its cutting
down emissions by 50 percent,
so can you imagine if every sin-
gle car on the road in the U.S.
was using it just how much of
an impact it would have.
For the people that produce
and support ethanol linking up
with NASCAR was an easy de-
cision.
We make fuel and they run
race cars, said Tom Buis, CEO
of Growth Energy, a group of
American ethanol producers.
We couldnt think of a better
partnership.
To hear Buis the partnership
is as simple as black and white
well actually, red, white and
blue.
No sport is more American
and no fuel is more American,
Buis said.
So far, according to both
Lynch and Buis, the deal has
gone off without a hitch.
The whole transition is so
under the radar, its just not
something (the drivers) have
on their minds, Lynch said.
Teams are also getting a bit
more horse power with the E15
fuel.
Even more important to con-
sumers that arent concerned
about trading paint on a Sprint
Cup track, the fuel should be
anywhere from 17 cents to 89
cents cheaper at the pump than
old-fashion gasoline.
But dont run out to the near-
est Sunoco looking for the E15
just yet. The gas wont be com-
mercially available until later
this year.
But, according to Buis, it
wont be long before consum-
ers will be able to pull up to
pumps that will allow them to
select a fuel mix with up to 30
percent ethanol.
NASCARs green initiatives
go beyond the new gas power-
ing its race cars and trucks,
however.
There are so many NAS-
CAR green initiatives that you
cant keep up with them all,
Bowyer said. This is very
good for this sport and our
fans.
Lynch was quick to point out
NASCARs recycling program,
which he said is the biggest
such program in sports.
But at Pocono Raceway,
there is an even bigger symbol
of the sports effort to be more
environmentally friendly.
The track is powered by the
worlds largest solar farm at a
sporting venue.
Pocono is always a big
week, Lynch said, adding that
the tracks solar farm makes it
even more so for him.
We are incredibly proud of
it.

LONG POND Like every-
one else at Pocono this week-
end, Paul Menard and his team
saw the weather forecast for
Saturday.
With the possibility of rain
interrupting qualifying and
setting the field for todays 5-
Hour Energy 500 according to
practice speeds, Menard went
all out on Friday. And the 30-
year-old, still looking for his first
Sprint Cup victory, finished
with the second-highest practice
speed.
We were really hoping for
rain (Saturday) so we could be
starting second (today), Me-
nard said. If we saw raindrops,
we were gonna make sure to say
it.
But the rain held off early
Saturday afternoon, forcing
Menard to earn his spot through
qualifying.
No matter.
Menard and his No. 27 Chev-
rolet finished second anyway,
posting a speed of 171.422 to
join pole-sitter Kurt Busch in
the front row for todays race.
To go out there and qualify
second by actually getting a lap
down was cool, Menard said.
Its more meaningful that way.
For Menard, this is the sec-
ond-highest start of his career,
having won the pole once (Day-
tona, 2008). His best finish
came later that season at Talla-
dega, where he took second.
His best start at eight previ-
ous tries at Pocono Raceway
had been 17th.
Track temperatures are often
a concern for qualifying, where
a cooler surface leads to better
times. But overcast skies made
sure that didnt impact Menards
run, despite him being the 43rd
car out of 44 to take his turn.
We really thought it would
rain, so we posted a good lap in
practice, which made us go out
late, Menard said. When you
look at hourly forecasts, it was
70 degrees from start to finish,
so the track conditions didnt
change a lot.
It might have gotten a little
bit hotter, but I think we got a
little bit of cloud cover right at
the end of qualifying, so that
probably helped.
Quickly skinned
It didnt take long to deter-
mine which one of the 44 cars
would be the odd one out for
todays field of 43.
Mike Skinner, two weeks shy
of his 54th birthday, wrecked in
relatively violent fashion for a
qualifying run. The veteran lost
control of his No. 60 Toyota in
turn 1, sliding out and smashing
hard into the SAFER barrier on
the inside wall and tearing apart
his front end.
Skinner was in line to claim
the 43rd and final spot, which
instead went to Scott Wimmer
because of the crash.
George wins ARCA race
The weather held out long
enough to get in all of the Sprint
Cup qualifying, but the ensuing
ARCA race wasnt as fortunate.
Saturdays Pocono 200 went
to Tim George Jr., who held the
lead when the race was called
after 58 laps out of 80.
Cousins Chase Mattioli and
Nick Igdalsky grandsons of
track owners Drs. Joe and Rose
Mattioli finished 18th and
19th, respectively.
Hazleton native Steve Fox
took 29th.

FORTWORTH, Texas Ron
Hornaday Jr. got his record 48th
career NASCAR Trucks Series
victory in the caution-filled race
at Texas despite crossing the fin-
ish line in second place Friday
night.
Johnny Sauter pulled away on
the final restart with two laps
left, but the series points leader
was black-flagged by NASCAR
because he dropped from the
outside lane tothe inside infront
of Hornadays Chevrolet before
crossing the start-finish line.
Sauter was dropped to 22nd
place.
Good way to steal one,
Hornaday said while sitting
down for his postrace interview.
Sauter led three times for a
race-high 58 laps (of 168) at the
1
1
2-mile, high-banked Texas
track. He spun his Chrevrolets
tires onthe restart as he dropped
down the track.
We both spun the tires and I
left a lane down there for him,
Sauter said while walking back
to the garage.
Asked if he would appeal the
ruling, Sauter harshly respon-
ded, Its official, isnt it?
There were a track-record 10
cautions for 46 laps. The race al-
soset Texas records with11lead-
ers and 19 lead changes the
most dramatic coming without
the leading car being passed.
As soon as the green drop-
ped, he dropped in my lane, I
was yelling, Hes in my lane!
Better stick by the rules! Hes in
my lane! Hornaday said. If
they didnt black flag him and
gave it to him, I would have been
fine either way. ... But they stuck
to their guns and it was a call. I
would have expected it if it was
me.
Hornaday and crew chief Jeff
Hensleysaidteams werewarned
repeatedly during the drivers
meeting before the race about
staying in their chosen lanes on
restarts.
The 52-year-old Hornaday,
driving for Kevin Harvick Inc.,
won for the third time in Texas.
Hornaday and Sauter are the
only series regulars with wins in
the first nine races this season.
Sauter still held onto the se-
ries points lead, by eight over
Hornaday going into an extend-
ed break before the next race Ju-
ly 7 in Kentucky.

BUSINESS S E C T I O N D
timesleader.com
Employees are al-
lowed to discuss the
conditions of their
employment with
co-workers in the
break room, in the
parking lot or on
Facebook.
That was the National Labor Rela-
tions Boards basic position involving
an unfair labor practices case the
agency brought against an employer.
The backstory: A worker at
home, on Facebook had posted
derogatory comments about a super-
visor. Co-workers read the post,
liked it and
added barbs.
The employ-
er fired the
original author
for violating a
company policy
that barred
employees
from depicting
the company
in any way
on social
media.
But the labor
relations board said that the policy
was too broad and that it infringed
on the rights of workers union
and non-union to engage in pro-
tected concerted activities.
In settling the case, the employer
agreed to narrow its policy so it did
not restrict employees from dis-
cussing wages, hours and working
conditions with co-workers and oth-
ers while not at work.
Employment law attorney Shelly
Freeman warned people attending
last weeks Heartland Labor and
Employment Law Conference in
Overland Park, Kan., that case law
and regulatory opinions are building
more slowly than the social media
use theyre trying to control.
In most workplaces, employees are
at will. Texting or tweeting work-
ers can be fired simply because the
boss doesnt think a post reflects
well on the company or the individu-
al.
Lawyers and government agencies
will successfully object if the firings
violate laws governing discrimi-
nation, harassment or other legal
protections, such as the concerted
activities cited in the above Face-
book case.
But if and until the law catches up
with social media use, any worker
concerned with job security and any
employer concerned with protecting
an image online should make sure
theyre on the same page.
Organizations need a social media
policy thats specific and updated.
Employees should know exactly
what it says.

The PA Sunshine
Program, a four-tiered
rebate program, is de-
signed to be an incen-
tive for residential and
small commercial busi-
ness to install solar pan-
els.
Currently we are in
the fourth tier, said
Mike Pitcavage, presi-
dent of Endless Moun-
tain Solar in Wilkes-Barre. The Sunshine Pro-
gram is estimated to end late this summer.
Under the AEPS Act, utility companies are
required to purchase a growing percentage of
electricity generated by solar facilities, called
solar renewable energy credits. The goal is to
reach .5 percent of electricity produced by so-
lar energy by 2020.
Solar Renewable Energy Credit, or SREC, is
one megawatt of power generated by a solar
facility. Businesses and homeowners can in-
crease the return on their solar panels by sell-
ing excess SRECs to electric companies.
According to Vote Solar, a nonprofit solar
advocacy group, there are about 71 megawatts
of solar energy being generated in Pennsylva-
nia. This is enough to sat-
isfy the states solar re-
quirements over the next
three years, said Pitcav-
age.
It is basic economics,
supply and demand, Pit-
cavage said.
A.J. Bittner, president
of Keystone Energy LLC.
in Luzerne, still main-
tains a sunny outlook on
the industry. The end of solar is not near, he said.
The tax credits and rebates did what they
were supposed to do, Bittner said. It is just that
the industry is beginning to outpace the portfo-
lio.
The Sunshine Program did create new jobs
and is providing a clean, renewable form of ener-
gy, he said. Pitcavage estimated 600 solar com-
panies popped up in Pennsylvania and about
5,000 new jobs were created.
The systemjust needs to be reworked, Bittn-
er said.
Pitcavage said part of the problem, is the AEPS
Act does not require Pennsylvania utilities to

KIBBUTZ KETURA, Israel Israel is planning
an expansion of its solar-generated electricity
with preparations to bring the first of more than
40 new solar plants onto the grid this summer.
Arava Power is building the plants, including
the 100 million shekel ($30 million) Ketura Sun
solar field in Israels scorching Negev desert,
which will begin providing electricity to some
1,000 residents this summer.
Israel is pushing to become a world leader in
alternative energy, with the government backing
cutting-edge technologies and setting a goal to
have 10 percent of its electricity generated by al-
ternative means by 2020.
Israel depends almost entirely for its energy on
imported coal and natural gas. Its gas supply from
Egypt has become more volatile since President
Hosni Mubaraks February ouster because of at-
tacks on the pipeline and criticism in Egypt over
the pricing of the exports.
Our goal is to green the grid so much that
Israel will be the first major economy that will
transform itself from carbon-based to solar-
based, Arava President Yosef Abramowitz said
Friday.
Once connected, the 20-acre (8-hectare) Ketura
solar plant will produce nearly 5 megawatts. It is
expected to sell power to Israels Electric Compa-
ny for 1.52 shekels (45 cents) per kilowatt-hour

Solar created in Pennsylvania
should stay in Pennsylvania, Why
should utility companies charge
PA customers fees for energy
created in other states?
A.J. Bittner,
President of Keystone Energy LLC.
During the past three years, solar energy has blossomed in Pennsylvania, creating a
green sustainable energy source and newjobs, but a hiccup in the state requirements
could have a detrimental effect on the industry.
Pennsylvanias solar industry exploded when state tax incentives were initiated in
2009, called the PA Sunshine Program combined with the Alternative Energy Port-
folio Standards Act enacted in 2004, also known as the AEPS Act.

A 125-acre (50-hectare)
plant being built nearby is ex-
pected to provide one-third
of the electricity needed to
power the Red Sea resort city
of Eilat, 30 miles (50 kilome-
ters) to the south.
Last year, Israel dedicated
a smaller on-grid solar pro-
ject an $8.5 million col-
lection of 40 solar panel sys-
tems that supplies 2 mega-
watts, enough to power
about 500 homes.
Israel has dozens of solar
fields, but most are pilot pro-
jects to test new technolo-
gies.
Abramowitz said the com-
pany aims to produce 400
megawatts at a cost of $2 bil-
lion.

purchase SRECs generated
within the state.
Currently, solar energy
credits fromOhio and Washing-
ton, D.C. are being purchased
by Pennsylvania utility compa-
nies, Pitcavage said.
Lissette Santana, spokesper-
son from electric company
PPL, confirmed recently her
company purchased 25,000
SRECs for an eight-and-a-half-
year period for $149 per SREC.
When asked where the solar
credits were from, she respon-
ded, it was one winning bid-
der, location is undisclosed.
Pitcavage and Bittner have
noted the selling price utility
companies are paying for
SRECs have dropped as a re-
sult.
Pocono Raceway President
Brandon Igdalsky, has seen this
drop first hand. Overseeing the
largest solar farm at a sporting
venue in the world, the Pocono
Raceway solar farm has 40,000
solar panels and produces
enough energy to power the
race track facility and 1,000 lo-
cal homes.
Our system is expected to
generate roughly 3.6 to 3.8 mil-
lion kilowatt hours each year,
Igdalsky said.
Igdalsky said the prices of
SRECs have dropped from$300
to $80. New Jersey, for exam-
ple, is selling SRECs for $655,
and Massachusetts for $525.
One main reason for this is
Pennsylvania allows out-of-
state systems to register to sell
their SRECs in PA, Igdalsky
said.
To fix this problemstate Rep.
Chris Ross, R-Chester, pro-
posed Bill 1580 to increase the
amount of solar energy utility
companies are required to pur-
chase between the years 2012
and 2015.
Katy Gresh, a spokeswoman
with the state Department of
Environmental Protection, said
Pennsylvania taxpayers and
ratepayers have offered ex-
traordinarily generous support
for the solar industry over the
past several years, both
through the AEPS mandate and
through the $180 million in
grants and rebates included in
the 2008 Alternative Energy In-
vestment Act.
She said as good as the pro-
grams have worked, other fac-
tors need to be considered.
While we want to see con-
tinued growth of this and other
energy industries across the
commonwealth, we need to
keep in mind that all costs asso-
ciated with the solar renewable
energy credit market are
passed on to ratepayers. We
will continue to monitor this
situation going forward, and
we will seek to strike the appro-
priate balance that is sustaina-
ble both for this industry and
for ratepayers.
Pitcavage said he would also
like to see Pennsylvania utili-
ties only buy SRECs generated
within the state. This could
boost the price of SRECs up
again and make Pennsylvanias
solar market more competitive
with neighboring states.
Solar created in Pennsylva-
nia should stay in Pennsylva-
nia, Bittner said. Why should
utility companies charge PA
customers fees for energy cre-
ated in other states?
Despite this, Igdalsky firmly
believes the $18 million solar
farm was worth the invest-
ment.
It was a good business
move, he said. For one it was
the right thing to do. We have
shown the sports world and
fans that solar can be done and
done right.
Pitcavage said he has heard
of several solar companies and
specially trained solar techni-
cians migrating to New Jersey
where the market is strong. He
plans on weathering this drop
and stay in the area.
Bittner said with any new in-
dustry, glitches arise, but be-
lieves solar will be around for a
long time.

Q: Our office has an outdated
cell phone policy that doesnt ad-
dress text messaging. It simply
says If an employee receives an
important call on their cell
phone, theyare toleave the office
and proceed into the hall to take
the call.
At least half of our employees
keep cell phones on their desk
and do a lot of texting during the
workday. Many people feel that
management needs to step up
and deal with this issue, because
texting distracts people and re-
duces productivity. Dont you
think we should have a texting
policy?
A: Actually, your company
needs a more general guideline,
not another specific rule. Phone
calls and texts are only two ex-
amples of the many personal pur-
suits that can make people less
productive. Others might in-
clude online shopping, running
errands, reading magazines, ex-
ploringsocial media, or anything
else that takes time away from
work.
For that reason, your policy
should simply indicate that dur-
ing work hours, employees are
expected to avoid engaging in
personal activities which inter-
fere with productivity. Providing
examples would be helpful, as
long as the policy clearly states
that the list is not comprehen-
sive. Management should intro-
duce the new policy in a staff
meeting, allowing time for ques-
tions and discussion.
If texting has been a particular
problem, then that issue should
be specifically addressed. For ex-
ample: Texting has become a
significant distraction fromwork
for some employees. From now
on, everyone is expected to limit
texting about personal matters
to breaks and lunch. Exceptions
can be made for critical situa-
tions.
After that, anyone who contin-
ues to over-text should be dealt
with individually. Finally, this
would also be an excellent time
to eliminate that rather silly call
in the hall cell phone rule. Al-
lowing personal conversations
ona desk phone, while banishing
mobile talkers to the corridor,
makes absolutely no sense.
Q: I recently applied for the su-
pervisory position in my depart-
ment, but management selected
an applicant from outside the
company. Although my boss said
I was not qualified for the posi-
tion, he has now asked me to
train the woman who was hired.
If he thinks Im not qualified,
how can he expect me to train
someone else?
A: While your confusion is un-
derstandable, your managers re-
quest actually does make sense.
External candidates are typically
chosen for their management ex-
pertise, industry experience or
some other useful attribute.
What they lack, however, is an
understanding of their new sur-
roundings. As a knowledgeable
insider, you are being asked to
orient this woman to the compa-
ny, not teach her how to super-
vise. Although your recent rejec-
tion may have left you feeling
slightly resentful, you need to
recognize that training your boss
presents a valuable opportunity.
Not only will she see that you are
well-regarded, but you will also
be able to impress her with your
competence and helpful spirit. If
you handle this interaction wise-
ly, she might even recommend
you for the next supervisory
opening.

Phone calls and texts are only

Firms cell-phone policy
needs to be revisited
WASHINGTON The Food
and Drug Administration said
Wednesday that some chicken
meat may contain small
amounts of arsenic, though the
agency is stressing that the
amount is too tiny to be danger-
ous topeoplewhoeat it.
TheFDAsaidWednesdaythat
a new study developed by the
agency shows that aningredient
in chicken feed that contains ar-
senic, called Roxarsone, may
makeitswayintopartsofthebird
that are eaten. Previous studies
have indicated that the arsenic
was eliminated with chicken
waste.
Pfizer Inc., which makes the
feedingredient, saidWednesday
thatitwill pull itoff themarketin
the United States. Had the com-
pany not stoppedsales, the FDA
could have eventually banned
the product since it contains a
knowncarcinogen.
Many poultry producers have
already stopped feeding their
birds the ingredient, which has
been used since the1940s to kill
parasites andpromotegrowth.
The FDA said that people
shouldnotstopeatingchickenthat
may have been fed the drug. Mi-
chael Taylor, FDAs deputy com-
missioner for foods, saidthe study
raised concerns of a very lowbut
completely avoidable exposure to
a carcinogen.
Pfizer said in a statement that a
subsidiary, Alpharma LLC, is sus-
pending sales next month in re-
sponse to the FDA findings. The
companysaidit iswaitingamonth
so producers have time to transi-
tiontheirbirdsoff thedrug. Thein-
gredient will also be pulled off the
market for swine and turkeys,
though the FDA only studied
chickens.
Scott Brown, of Pfizer Animal
Healths Veterinary Medicine Re-
search and Development division,
said the company also sells the in-
gredient in about a dozen other
countries. HesaidPfizer is reaching
outtoregulatoryauthoritiesinthose
countriesandwilldecidewhetherto
sell it onanindividual basis.
Inthe study of 100chickens, the
FDAfound that chickens that had
eaten the Roxarsone had higher
levelsof inorganicarsenicasop-
posed to organic arsenic, which is
naturally occurring in their liv-
ers than chickens which had not
eatentheRoxarsone. Inorganic ar-
senic is more toxic than the natu-
rallyoccurringform.
The agency attempted to study
levels of arsenic found in chicken
muscle breasts and legs, for ex-
ampleinadditiontotheliversbut
that test ranintocomplications. An
agencyofficial saidWednesdaythat
they would expect about 40 times
less arsenic to be found in the mus-
clethanintheliver.
Roxarsone has long been a con-
cern for environmental and con-
sumer groups worried about its
presence inchickenwaste andthe
resulting effects on human health
inareas withhighchickenproduc-
tion. Maryland state lawmakers
have attempted to force a ban in
that state, saying the arsenic ends
upintheChesapeakeBay.
Arsenic in chicken production
poses a risk not only to human
health, but to the environment,
said Michael Hansen, a senior sci-
entist with Consumers Union,
which publishes Consumer Re-
ports. We need to get arsenic out
of foodproductionaltogether.
Consumers Union and other
groups praised the FDAs move but
asked the agency to go further and
encourage bans of other animal
drugsthatcontainarsenic.TheFDA
said it is looking at another drug
made by Pfizer, Nitarsone, which
contains arsenic andis fedto chick-
ens and turkeys but is used much
lessfrequentlythanRoxarsone.Offi-
cials said they are in talks with the
companyaboutthatdrugbutdonot
haveanydataspecifictoit.
The National Chicken Council,
which represents companies that
produce and process chickens,
said in a statement that the ingre-
dient has been used to maintain
good health in chickens for many
years, andthat it is usedinmany,
but not all flocks.
Chicken is safe to eat, the
groupsaid.

WASHINGTON U.S. con-
sumers would see a sharp drop
in the price of imported shoes
and thats nearly all shoes
sold in the United States if a
bipartisan group of senators is
successful in stamping out the
nations shoe tax.
It is kindof ahiddentax, and
gettingridof it wouldbe nice to
do, Democratic Sen. Maria
Cantwell of Washingtonstate, a
member of the Senate Finance
Committee, saidWednesday.
Cantwell has teamedup with
Democratic Sen. Patty Murray
of WashingtonstateandRepub-
licanSens. RoyBlunt of Missou-
ri and Pat Roberts of Kansas to
promote the Affordable Foot-
wear Act, which would elimi-
nate roughly half the duties on
importedshoes.
Cantwell, the measures chief
sponsor, said consumers were
paying a tax of up to 40 percent
in some cases. Backers said the
legislation would lead to more
sales for retailers and more sav-
ings for consumers.
While the bill has yet to arouse
any opposition, its a hit with the
shoe industry. Last year, it would
have eliminated about $800 mil-
lion of the $2 billion collected on
imported childrens and low-cost
shoes.
It would be fantastic. ... It
wouldallow(consumers) tobuya
secondpair or buy a pair that they
normallywouldhave toput off an-
other month, said Bill Snowden,
a shoe distributor from Bellevue,
Wash., and the senior vice presi-
dent of Topline Corp., which em-
ploys100 people.
Theshoetax, whichdatestothe
1930s, originallywasaimedat pro-
tecting a manufacturing sector
thats all but disappeared in the
United States, according to the
AmericanApparel &FootwearAs-
sociation, a national trade organi-
zation. Over the last two decades,
nearly all shoe production has
movedoutside the country.
The groupsaidthat 99 percent of
the shoes bought in the United
Stateslast yearwereproducedinter-
nationally,makingitvirtuallyimpos-
sible for Americans toavoidthe tax.
While tariffs on different shoes
vary, theymight result ina$15pair
of shoes sellingfor as muchas $25,
Snowdensaid.
In past years, Snowden said, its
been difficult to get members of
Congress to focus on shoes, given
their preoccupation with war, the
economy and other big issues of
the day.
Even though the legislation has
stalled, Snowden said it had won
supportfrommanyDemocratsand
Republicansinbothhousesof Con-
gress.
Therehavebeensomanyother

said.

BRINGING UP THE REAR
Utilities and telecoms have been some
of the best stocks since May because
investors want companies that will hold
up in a slowing economy. But heres
one note of caution: These industries
turned in the worst profit results last
quarter. Total earnings for utilities in the
S&P 500 index grew just 0.1 percent.
At Southern Co., for example, first-
quarter earnings per share fell 17 per-
cent after a milder winter meant fewer
heaters were running. That led to less
electricity demand for Southern. Tele-
com profit growth was hardly better, at
0.5 percent for the industry. Financial
analysts dont expect the pair to do
much better this quarter. They forecast
profit to rise 1.5 percent for telecoms
and drop 1.6 percent for utilities.
PERUS YOUR PROBLEM
Mining stocks tanked Monday, and it wasnt
because of weaker metals prices. Blame Pe-
ru. Ollanta Humala won the countrys presi-
dency, and the leftist former army officer
talked early in the campaign about higher
taxes and royalties on businesses. Perus
stock market dropped 12.4 percent Monday,
the day after the election, on worries he will
be anti-business. Phoenix-based miner
Southern Copper (SCCO) lost nearly as
much, 11.3 percent. Peruvian mines produce
about 7 percent of the worlds copper and 16
percent of its silver, says Deutsche Bank.
Standard & Poors says its too early to
change its ratings on Peruvian companies.
Humala has recently said hes more like
Brazils last president, who oversaw strong
economic growth, than Venezuelas, who
has nationalized businesses.
SMALLER CUSHIONS
Strong profits mean companies are
sitting on more cash than ever, but
theres a catch. Their obligations are
rising too. Companies have more in
lease payments, debt repayments and
other items that theyre contractually
required to pay. That means their cash
cushions may not be as fat as some
had thought, says Credit Suisse ana-
lyst David Zion. Investors had hoped
those cash cushions would go toward
dividend increases and acquisitions.
At the end of 2010, companies in the
S&P 500 had enough cash to pay for
six months of their contractual obliga-
tions, according to Zion. Thats better
than 2007, when companies had less
than four months worth. But its the
same level they had in 2004. Source: Standard & Poors Indices

Data through June 9
Don Cleven, portfolio manager of
the Touchstone Mid-Cap Value fund
(TCVAX), likes to own shares in
companies that have temporary
problems but that are still good
long-term bets. Top holdings include
energy company AGL Resources
and software maker Synopsys. He
recently talked about his strategy.
Mid-cap stocks
have risen 31
percent over
the past year. Is
it tougher to
find values?
The market is
still up a lot in
the last two
years. But I
would say were
selectively bull-
ish. Not all
stocks have gone up together.
Were finding interesting ideas in
(companies that do well later in
economic recoveries).
Could you give some examples?
So you have one like Quest Diag-
nostics (DGX). Quest is the largest
domestic clinical lab. But ultimately,
their volume is tied to patient visits:
people going to the doctor. Patient
visits really struggled during the re-
cession, which is ultimately tied to
employment, insurance (and) in-
creasing co-pays. Even though
their business is currently de-
pressed because of this issue ...
they are showing some signs of
stabilization.
So Quests growth is ahead of
them?
Exactly. As people start going back
to the doctor, youll see incremental
volume (increase). What happens
is theyre already running their
plants, and theyre already running
to the doctor (to get lab tests). So if
theyre just picking up more tests,
thats really ... very healthy profit for
them.
You like to own companies that
have temporary problems. What
stocks in your portfolio fit that
model?
Ill give you a brand new one, which
is Newell Rubbermaid (NWL). The
stock was punished for lowering
guidance not only because the con-
sumer is weaker than they expect-
ed but also because of inflationary
(pressures). Rubbermaid (uses) a
lot of plastic, thats resin. ... The
third reason that they didnt say,
which I think makes it kind of inter-
esting here, is that theyre about to
announce their new CEO. I really
think one of the main reasons they
were doing this is they had already
chewed through the cushion of their
guidance and they didnt want to
hand new guidance to a new CEO
to turn around and disappoint
(investors). So I think theyre clear-
ing the decks for the new incoming
CEO that should be announced in
weeks.
So the company is being overly
cautious to help ease this new
CEO into the role?
Right.
Why do you like this strategy
focusing on the bad things hap-
pening to good companies?
One of the inefficiencies remaining
in the market is this obsession with
near-term (results). If youre willing
to take advantage of lack of visibility
because you are patient and can
look in the long term, you can find
some great values. ... Even at times
when the market is expensive, you
can always find stocks that are
cheap that people are just unwilling
to wait around (for) because they
dont think this is a quarter where
everything is going to get better.
One of your top holdings is
Cintas (CTAS), the uniform com-
pany. Whats the story there?
Cintas is the largest uniform rental
company in the country. Obviously,
its partially tied to employment.
Right now, even though the em-
ployment picture is slowly recover-
ing, its still pretty bleak. ... (But) ev-
eryone sees Cintas trucks rolling
around. Theyre already coming in-
to the building. If, in the building,
somebody hires three more people,
youre hanging up three more uni-
forms, theres no incremental cost.
Its all profit. As employment slowly
improves, it drives very strong, very
attractive incremental (profit) mar-
gins. And the stock is cheap any-
ways on a cash-flow basis.
When bad things
happen to good
companies

InsiderQ&A
Real estate has been one of the best investments of
2011 if youre talking about commercial real estate.
Real estate investment trusts, known as REITS,
have been hot. Mutual funds that own REITs, which
control apartment complexes, shopping centers and
other commercial property, returned 9.5 percent this
year through Tuesday. They returned 31.3 percent and
27.1 percent the last two years.
The REIT industry is in a state of nirvana, Citi ana-
lyst Michael Bilerman wrote in a report.
REITs are attractive in part because they pay at least
90 percent of their income as dividends. Financial ana-
lysts say several factors are behind their rise this year:
Low interest rates. The 10-year Treasurys yield is
below 3 percent. Thats forcing income investors to look
elsewhere. Health Care REIT (HCN), which owns as-
sisted living facilities, yields 5.5 percent. Associated
Estates Realty (AEC), an apartment owner, yields 4.2
percent. Low rates also make borrowing cheaper and
has created a Snow White magic mirror making every-
one (in the REIT industry) look pretty, at least for the
moment, FBR analyst Sri Nagarajan wrote in a report.
Improving demand. The U.S. homeownership rate
fell in the first quarter to its lowest level since 1998.
That means more renters are apartment hunting. For
health care REITs, investors expect the first wave of ba-
by boomers to start heading to assisted living and se-
nior centers.
A caveat: the REIT rally has brought down their divi-
dend yields. Equity REITs have an average yield of 3.4
percent. Thats above the yield on the 10-year note, but
below the 4.7 percent that REITs averaged the last five
years. Another concern: the slowing economy. It could
hurt office building owners.
Some real estate is rising
S Choe K Girard AP SOURCES: National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts; Standard & Poor's Data through June 7
Most kinds of real estate investment trusts have done better than the rest of the stock market
this year. And they have bigger yields.

Financial stocks have become an investing hot potato. But that
doesnt mean you should avoid them altogether. If you do, youll
lose out on some strong companies.
Taken as a whole, the financial industry isnt doing well: Finan-
cial companies in the S&P 500 are down 7 percent this year, more
than any other industry group in the index. Theyve been pulled
down by giants like AIG, which has fallen 42 percent this year. AIG
and other financial institutions took too many risks in the bubble
years, fueling the financial crisis.
But many regional banks took fewer risks. They had a straight-
forward business model: Provide bank accounts and loans to local
customers. For some, that approach has brought steady returns.
Here are the 10 stocks in the S&P 1,500 bank group with the
best one-year total return. Sterling Bancshares, the best performer
of the group, is a holding company for Sterling Bank, which serves
small businesses in Texas. Cathay General Bancorp operates
mostly in California. And Signature Bank serves New York City.

Treasury yields near 2011 low
The 10-year Treasurys yield remained below 3 per-
cent last week, close to its lowest level since Decem-
ber. Investors frightened by the slowing recovery
bought Treasurys in search of safety, and higher
Treasury prices mean lower yields. Mortgage rates
also fell. The average rate on a 30-year fixed mort-
gage fell to 4.49 percent last week from 4.55 percent
a week earlier.

VIEWS S E C T I O N E

YOU ONLY have one
chance to make a good
first impression. True or
not, seven Republican
presidential candidates
will be doing their best
to impress tomorrow
evening.
Live from the Sullivan Arena on the
campus of Saint Anselm College in Man-
chester, N.H., contenders for the Repub-
lican presidential nomination will meet in
the Granite States first presidential de-
bate of the 2012 cycle.
Home of the Hawks womens and
mens ice hockey teams, Sullivan Arena
will become a large television studio for
this event sponsored by CNN, the New
Hampshire Union Leader and WMUR-TV.
Absent from the confab will be former
Utah governor and Ambassador to China
Jon Huntsman Jr., former New York may-
or Rudolph Giuliani and the ex-governor
of Alaska, and Paul Revere historian in
residence, Sarah Palin. While their ab-
sence is unfortunate, be assured you will
not be disappointed
Minnesota congresswoman Michele
Bachmann will be there, as will former
House Speaker Newt Gingrich and for-
mer U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum of Penn-
sylvania.
Bachmann, Santorum, Gingrich,
speechifying, same stage, two hours
priceless.
They will be joined by former Minneso-
ta governor Timothy Pawlenty, former
Massachusetts governor Willard Mitt
Romney, Texas congressman Ronald Paul
and businessman Herman Cain.
Saint Anselm hosted similar debates in
2007 featuring Democratic presidential
candidates on June 3 and the Republicans
on June 5. Following the GOP forum,
polls gave winning nods to Paul and Rom-
ney, followed by Giuliani and the eventual
nominee, Sen. John McCain of Arizona.
Viewers at the time expected much
more from Giuliani and thought he turn-
ed in a dismal performance. They were
right, and the Giuliani campaign never
recovered.
At the same time Ron Paul ignited a
movement, Romney failed to excite any-
one outside the New England ZIP codes,
and McCain became grudgingly accept-
able.
What was true then remains so now:
Saint Anselm matters. And all the candi-
dates, those debating and those who
declined, know it.
Indeed much is at stake tomorrow from
8 to 10 p.m. as CNN televises the first
presidential debate in the first primary
state of 2012.
Pawlenty and Santorum have the most
to gain should they distinguish them-
selves before a national television audi-
ence, most of which will be observing
them for the first time. Their task will be
to throw conspicuous slabs of raw meat
to the increasingly extreme primary base
of the Republican Party while not scaring
the daylights out of independent voters
who decide general elections.
Its a troublesome needle to thread, as
both candidates have voiced support for
the unpopular House Republican budget
that eliminates Medicare for Americans
under 55 and replaces it with a health
care coupon for them to tote, hat in hand,
to insurance companies in an attempt to
get coverage when they reach 65. Worse,
Bachmann and Paul actually voted for it
(as did our local Republican coupon duo
of Lou Barletta and Tom Marino).
In Mondays showdown Romney has
the most to lose. As the Republican fron-
trunner we need only count the number
of barbs hurled in his direction and mea-
sure how well he parries each wave of the
assault. While it will not be easy for Rom-
ney to improve upon his overall standing,
its difficult to imagine he will not see
some slippage in post-debate surveys.
The thoughtful Huntsman, the experi-
enced Giuliani and, well, Palin each saw
the emerging dynamics of this impending
dustup and are staying away. They seem
content to allow others the opportunity to
soften up the current leader.
What a cast. This is must-see political
theater.
Is it any wonder Herman Cain, former
chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of
Kansas City, will make the best impres-
sion?

GOP debate
is a must-see
televised event

politics appears every Sunday. Contact him at

SOMETIMES A
column will engen-
der approval and
many times disap-
proval. Last weeks
column reminding
people to never
count ol Rick Perry out of a race --
even one for president -- engaged
many readers.
Texas Gov. Perry continues to be
in the news, drawing praise and
criticism for promoting a National
Day of Prayer as well as garnering
attention as a potential candidate
in the wake of the Newt Gingrich
campaign meltdown and presum-
ptive front-runner Mitt Romneys
problems gaining traction with the
conservative Republican base
My long-time friend and one
truly talented editor, Roy Bode,
wrote to me and offered his assess-
ment of Gov. Perry and his qual-
ifications or lack thereof.
Bode left the big time of news-
paper publishing with his last stint
as editor of the Dallas (Texas)
Times Herald and returned to real
journalism in the community news-
paper business. He has watched
many a politician from far and
wide. Here is Bodes take on the
governor of Texas.
Its hard to say whether Gov.
Rick Perrys flirtation with the
Republican presidential nomi-
nation should be viewed with jubi-
lance, surprise, dismay or plain old
fashioned anger as he casually
grinds the prized Texas values of
straight talk and unwavering dedi-
cation to principle under his cus-
tom-made boot heel.
Jubilance? Democrats must be
giddy with visions of matching
their president with our governor
dancing in their heads. Meanwhile,
truly conservative Republicans
may also see the possibility that
Perrys all consuming ambition
may finally actually consume
his interminable political career
when it is dissected in the glare of
a presidential campaign.
Surprise? Certainly it is stunning
that some conservative political
icons like Rush Limbaugh are sug-
gesting that Perry might gather the
Republican Party and lead it
through the political wilderness to
the White House next year. Shoot-
ing a coyote didnt make him John
Wayne.
Dismay? Anger? Despite his role
as Al Gores Texas campaign chair-
man in the 1988 presidential elec-
tion, Perry is no liberal now. Un-
fortunately, those whove followed
his deeds as well as his words
know hes not really a reliable con-

Just this week, he proved it again.
No Help for Texas Businesses
The governor, who never stops
bragging on himself as the patron
saint of small business, vetoed
Republican-sponsored legislation
that would have helped ensure the
state sales tax is equally applied to
both storefront and online retailers.
Although its impossible to know
Perrys true motivation, its hard to
believe that the guy who once
raised the possibility of Texas se-
cession and wrote Fed Up! Our
Fight to Save America from Wash-
ington, just wants to forge a better
plan that, as he said, balances the
competing interests, respects feder-
alism, and is fair and equitable.
More likely Perry intended to
burnish his anti-tax, national image
as pro-business while considering
his presidential candidacy. Of
course, those who know the back-
story of this bill understand that
this wasnt about a new tax; it was
about sanctioning the state comp-
trollers policy of taxing some on-
line retailers the same as brick-and-
mortar stores.

SANTA MARIA, Calif.
A few years ago, preschool
teachers in Santa Maria, a
low-income, mostly Hispan-
ic city about 50 miles north-
west of Santa Barbara, at-
tended a series of meetings
with kindergarten teachers
in the district.
Most had never met. The
teachers had little idea what
happened in one anothers
classrooms.
What they discovered
changed the course of early
education in this small city
and is at the heart of a new
national reform movement
known as PreK-3.
Among the revelations:
The kindergarten teachers
told the preschool teachers
that their 5-year-olds, many
of them immigrants, strug-
gled with stories covered in
the kindergarten reading
curriculum. They werent
hearing American classics
like Goldilocks and the
Three Bears or Humpty
Dumpty at home. So the
preschools began incorpo-
rating those stories into
their classrooms.
Preschool and kindergar-
ten were operating differ-
ently, said Karin Domin-
guez, a former teacher who
initiated the meetings. It
was important for them to

The growing momentum behind PreK-3 is less than five
years old, but the ideas fueling its agenda can be traced
back to the 1960s, when researchers were first examining
the diminishing effects of Head Start, the federally funded
preschool program for low-income children.
W
ASHINGTON Eric Smith calls himself one of the lucky ones, returning home from
the war in Iraq in 2008 with two arms and two legs.
But his luck has yet to produce a full-time job. In the past year, the 26-year-old Balti-
more veteranhas foundpart-time workas a bartender whichpaid$4anhour, plus tips andas
a mail sorter, which paid $8 an hour. And when he was desperate enough for income, he volun-
teered to be a test patient in a drug study, which earned him$1,200 for a four-night hospital stay.
Its not exactly what Smith had in mind.
After getting bored with high
school, he quit as a15-year-oldsoph-
omore and enlisted in the Navy two
years later, serving two deploy-
ments in Iraq.
He became a senior hospital
corpsman, leading a four-man team
in a 20-bed intensive care unit, gain-
ing experience that he thought
would easily translate into a good-
paying civilian job.
That never happened.
Today Smith lives with his par-
ents on Baltimores east side, mak-
ing ends meet with a $541disability
check he receives each month from
the Department of Veterans Affairs,
payment for the lower back, shoul-
der, hand, knee and ear injuries he
sustained in the war.
He said the ringing in his ears,
caused by explosions, is contin-
uous: You just get used to it.
With a little help from Democrat-
ic Sen. Patty Murray of Washington
state, Smith has become the face of
veteran joblessness on Capitol Hill
this year, testifying at a hearing,
speaking at a news conference and
lobbying individual members of
Congress.
I am just one man, but my story
reflects the struggle of over 200,000
veterans in the current job market,
Smith told a Senate committee in
April.
The situation is most bleak for
young veterans who served in the
military after Sept. 11, 2001, those
returning from the wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan. In May, they had an
unemployment rate of 12.1 percent,
compared with 8.4 percent for all
veterans 18 and older, according to
Congress Joint Economic Commit-
tee.
Its been an unlikely journey for
Smith, who got his GED at age 17.
He grew up in a semi-military
family, with his grandfather, father
and oldest brother all enlisting in
the Army. It made a big impact on
the young boy.
From the time I was very young,
thats all I wantedtodo, Smithsaid.
I wanted to be an Army man or a
policeman. ... And theres the ro-

It was just easier to make the payment. It

easiest thing to do.

The partner in Highland Associates, a Clarks Summit architectural firm,
testified in federal court last week that his firm was extorted in 2005 to
the tune of $90,000 by former Lackawanna County commissioner
Robert Cordaro and sitting Commissioner A.J. Munchak. Testimony is
set to resume Monday in the duos public corruption trial in Scranton.
TWO UNRELATED news
stories on the same day
show the contrast between
government decisions and
private decisions.
Under the headline
Foreclosed Homes Sell at
Big Discounts, USA Today reported that
banks were selling the homes they fore-
closed on, at discounts of 38 percent in
Tennessee to 41 percent in Illinois and Ohio.
Banks in general try to get rid of the
homes they acquire by foreclosure, by sell-
ing them quickly for whatever they can get.
Why? Because banks are forced by econom-
ic realities to realize that they are not real
estate companies.
No matter how much expertise bank
officials might have in financial transac-
tions, that is very different from knowing
the best ways to maintain and market empty
houses.
Meanwhile, there was a story on the Fox
News Channel about schools that are using
their time to indoctrinate kindergartners
and fourth graders with politically correct
attitudes about sex.
Anyone familiar with the low standards
and mushy notions in the schools and de-
partments of education that turn out our
public school teachers might think that
these teachers would have all they can do to
make American children competent in read-
ing, writing and math.
Anyone familiar with how our children
stack up with children from other countries
in basic education would be painfully aware
that American children lag behind children
in countries that spend far less per pupil
than we do.
Why are teachers so bold when banks are
so cautious? The banks pay a price for being
wrong. Teachers dont.
If banks try to act like they are real estate
companies and hold on to a huge inventory
of foreclosed homes, they are likely to lose
money big time, as those homes deteriorate
and cannot compete with homes marketed
by real estate companies with far more
experience and expertise in this field.
But if teachers fail to educate children,
they dont lose one dime, no matter how
much those children and the country lose
by their failure. If the schools waste pre-
cious time indoctrinating children, instead
of educating them, thats the childrens
problem and the countrys problem, but not
the teachers problem.
Sex indoctrination is just one of innumer-
able exciting and innovative self-in-
dulgences of the schools. There is no bot-
tom line test of what these boondoggles
cost the children or the country.
Incidentally, conservatives who think that
schools should be teaching abstinence
miss the point completely. The schools have
no expertise to be teaching sex at all. We
should be happy if they ever develop the
competence to teach math and English, so
that our children can hold their own in
international tests.
Schools are just one government institu-
tion that take on tasks for which they have
no expertise or even competence.
Congress is the most egregious example.
In the course of any given year, Congress
votes on taxes, medical care, military spend-
ing, foreign aid, agriculture, labor, interna-
tional trade, airlines, housing, insurance,
courts, natural resources and much more.
There are professionals who have spent
their entire adult lives specializing in only
one of these fields. The idea that Congress
can be competent in all these areas simulta-
neously is staggering. Yet, far from pulling
back as banks or other private enterprises
must, if they dont want to be ruined fi-
nancially by operating beyond the range of
their competence Congress is constantly
expanding further into more fields.
Having spent years ruining the housing
markets with their interference, leading to a
housing meltdown that has taken the whole
economy down with it, politicians have now
moved on into micro-managing automobile
companies and medical care.
They are not going to stop unless they get
stopped. And that is not going to happen
until the voters recognize the fact that polit-
ical rhetoric is no substitute for compe-
tence.
Government institutions should stick to what they know

COMMENTARY
T H O M A S S O W E L L
FORMER Pennsylvania
senator Rick Santorums
official entry into the presi-
dential race Monday largely
was greeted with a yawn by
the political community.
Santorum, is, after all,
coming off of an 18-point drubbing in his
2006 re-election race and has struggled in the
early days of the 2012 campaign to emerge as
the preferred candidate for social conserva-
tives.
Those who dismiss Santorum as a factor in
the race are making a mistake, however.
Every presidential race is like a feature-length
film that includes the major actors and the bit
players. And so, Santorum has a role to play.
That role? Agitator.
Throughout his political career, Santorum
has been a somewhat unique figure on the
national stage in that he isnt afraid to throw
a political punch.
Its a trait that helped him rise in Repub-
lican leadership circles he finished his politi-
cal career as Senate Republican Conference
Chairman, the fourth ranking GOP senator
and what turned him into a national icon of
the social conservative movement in the
1990s and 2000s.
(That same junkyard dog trait also sowed
the seeds of his 2006 defeat at the hands of
Sen. Bob Casey as Santorum found himself
well to the ideological right of his Pennsylva-
nia constituents.)
Santorum already has shown his feisty side
in the run-up to this campaign, regularly
going after his better known rivals.
To wit:
On Mitt Romney: The issues, unfortunate-
ly, dont line up particularly well for Governor
Romney this time, particularly with health
care being front and center on the stage.
On Mike Huckabee: On national security,
cultural, economic, fiscal, etc., and Gov.
Huckabee doesnt have a record on national
security so what Im saying is for someone
whos thinking about running for president
Im a much more known quantity and some-
one who is consistent.
On Mitch Daniels: I think it shows there
are some people who are willing to stand up
and fight for the family and others who
would rather, to use the comment of one
potential candidate, call a truce on these
things. A truce in this case means ceding
ground to the other side.
Now that he is in the race, Santorum isnt
likely to let up on his critique of his rivals; his
campaign slogan, unveiled Monday morning
in Somerset, is the courage to fight for
America an indication of where hes head-
ed message-wise.
Santorums pugilistic rhetorical approach is
designed to allow him to punch up mean-
ing that by taking shots at his better-known
rivals he can inject himself into debates and
conversations where he might not otherwise
be.
Its a sound strategy for someone who is
clearly seen as a second-tier figure in the race.
It also poses potential danger for the people
at whom Santorum is swinging.
The two most likely recipients of Santo-
rums attacks will be Romney, the races front-
runner, whom the former Pennsylvania sen-
ator already has hammered over the Mas-
sachusetts health care law, and former Utah
governor Jon Huntsman, who not only
served in the Obama administration as am-
bassador to China, but also has staked out
relatively moderate ground on the gay mar-
riage issue.
The first showdown will likely come this
week in New Hampshire as the announced
candidates so, no Huntsman gather for a
presidential debate.
Expect Santorum to come out aggressively
when given the chance. How Romney reacts
not just Monday but throughout the cam-
paign will be telling.
Santorum is sure to stir things up in presidential race

HE DEATHS OF five
American troops in
Baghdad last week
are somber remind-
ers that even as the last 46,000
military personnel prepare to
leave Iraq, great danger re-
mains.
These five were serving as
Iraqi military advisers, not ac-
tively seeking confrontation.

their living quarters on a base
close to the dangerous slumof
Sadr City, which is controlled
by Muqtada al-Sadr.
Hes often described as a
firebrand Shiite cleric.
Through his Mahdi Army, he
reportedly is eager to claim
credit for pushing Americans
toward the door.
At this point, he is seeking
to derail talks about keeping a
small American training force
in Iraq beyond December.
Such an arrangement could
help ensure a good exit, mak-
ing sure the 4,459 U.S. troops
who have died to date in Iraq
did not die in vain. However, if
U.S. and Iraqi officials deter-
mine the nation is stable
enough to go it alone, then
America should by all means
complete the withdrawal on
schedule. Whatever the deci-
sion, this nation cannot allow
desperate acts of violence to

THE Repub-
licans swept
Novembers
midterm
election by
making it
highly ide-
ological, a
referendum on two years of
hyper-liberalism of arrogant,
overreaching, intrusive govern-
ment drowning in debt and
running deficits of $1.5 trillion
annually. Its not complicated.
To govern left in a center-right
country where four out of five
citizens are non-liberal is a
prescription for electoral defeat.
Which suggested an obvious
Republican strategy for 2012:
Recapitulate 2010. Keep it ide-
ological. Choose a presidential
nominee who can best make the
case.
But in the last few weeks, the
landscape has changed. For two
reasons: NY-26 and the May
economic numbers.
Last month, Democrats turn-
ed the race for the 26th Con-
gressional District of New York
into a referendum on Medicare,
and more specifically on the
Paul Ryan plan for reforming it.
The Republicans lost the seat
after having held it for more
than four decades.
Problem was, their candidate
was weak, defensive, unschool-
ed and unskilled in dealing with
the issue. Republicans have a
year to cure that. If they can
train their candidates to be just
half as fluent as Ryan in defend-
ing their Medicare plan, they
would be able to neutralize the
issue.
But that in and of itself is a
tactical victory for Democrats.
Republicans are on the defen-
sive. Democratic cynicism has
worked. By deciding to do noth-
ing about debt and entitle-
ments, and instead to simply
accuse Republicans of tossing
granny off a cliff, they have
given themselves an issue.
And more than just an issue.
It gives President Obama the
perfect opportunity to reposi-
tion himself to the center. After
his midterm shellacking, he
began the (ostensible) move:
appointing moderates such as
William Daley to high White
House positions; making pro-
business, anti-regulatory noises;
even offering last month a token
relaxation of his hard line
against oil drilling.
Ostentatious but not very
convincing. Now, however, the
Obama pitch is stronger: Left-
ist? On the contrary, I bestride
the center like a colossus, pro-
tecting Medicare from Repub-
lican right-wing social engineer-
ing.
Its not that the ideological
case against Obama cannot be
made. Obamacare with its
individual mandate remains
unpopular. The near-trillion-
dollar stimulus remains an
albatross.
Medicare has nonetheless
partially blunted that line of
ideological attack. Yet, just as
the Democrats were rejoicing in
the fruits of their cynicism, in
came the latest economic num-
bers. They were awful. Housing
price declines were the worst
since the 1930s. Unemployment
rising again. Underemployment
disastrously high. And as for
chronic unemployment, the
average time for finding a new
job is now 40 weeks, the highest
ever recorded. These numbers
gravely undermine Obamas
story line that were in a recov-
ery, just a bit slow and bumpy.
Suddenly, the election theme
has changed. The Republican
line in 2010 was: Hes a leftist.
Now it is: Hes a failure. The
issue is shifting from ideology
to stewardship.
As in 1992, its the economy,
with everything else a distant
second. The economic numbers
explain why Obamas job ap-
proval has fallen, why the bin
Laden bump disappeared so
quickly, and why Mitt Romney
is running even with the presi-
dent. Romney is the candidate
least able to carry the ideolog-
ical attack against Obama
exhibit A of Obamas hyper-
liberalism is Obamacare, and
Romney cannot rid himself of
the similar plan he gave Mas-
sachusetts. But when it comes
to being solid on economics,
competent in business and
highly experienced in govern-
ance, Romney is the prohibitive
front-runner.
Nonetheless, despite the
changed conditions, I would
still prefer to see the Republican
challenger make 2012 a decisive
choice between two distinct
visions of government. We are
in the midst of a once-in-a-
generation debate about the
nature of the welfare state (en-
titlement versus safety net) and,
indeed, of the social contract
between citizen and state (e.g.,
whether Congress can mandate
compel you to purchase
whatever it wills).
Lets finish that debate. Start
with Obamas abysmal stew-
ardship, root it in his out-of-
touch social-democratic ideol-
ogy, and win. That would create
the strongest mandate for con-
servative governance since the
Reagan era.
GOP should challenge
Obamas stewardship

ANOTHER VIEW
A photograph by S. John Wilkin

PRESIDENT
Obama has
pledged to start
withdrawing
U.S. troops
from Afghan-
istan next
month, with a
goal of pulling all combat troops
out by the end of 2014.
He hasnt yet decided how
many troops to pull this year. But
since the killing of Osama bin
Laden, domestic pressures have
grown for him to front-load the
drawdown.
If the point was to squash
al-Qaida, people ask, why are we
keeping thousands of troops in
Afghanistan? After all, bin Laden
was found in Pakistan. So was
top al-Qaida military leader Ilyas
Kashmiri, reportedly killed by a
drone strike earlier this month.
Having just returned from two
weeks in Afghanistan and Pakis-
tan, where I talked to U.S., Af-
ghan and Pakistani leaders, Ive
come to a different conclusion:
The drawdown should proceed
slowly, at least for this year.
The situation in AfPak is far
more perilous than is widely
understood, but for reasons Oba-
ma has failed to explain clearly.
The risk is not just that Afghan-
istan could implode, but that
nuclear-armed Pakistan could do
likewise.
As we saw recently when
militants made an unprecedented
attack from Afghanistan into
Pakistan a failed Afghan state
could become a haven for Pakis-
tani jihadis who seek to destroy
the weak Pakistani state and gain
access to its nukes.
I sympathize with those who
ask what is to be achieved by
staying longer in Afghanistan. As
the Afghan fighting season be-
gins, and Taliban suicide bombs
explode, its hard to see signs of
progress, especially in a country
whose government is rampantly
corrupt.
So let me lay out the U.S.
militarys strategy as it was ex-
plained to me, with caveats based
on my own observations, along
with a key reason for a slow
withdrawal that Obama has
never stated.
First, lets revisit why we are in
Afghanistan. As Gen. David Pe-
traeus put it to me in an inter-
view in Kabul, were there so
neither al-Qaida nor other groups
can use Afghan soil to carry out
transnational extremist attacks
on our homeland.
Can we stabilize Afghanistan
sufficiently by 2014, the target
date set by NATO for withdrawal
of combat troops? Difficult, but
not impossible.
The goal is to thin out U.S.
forces very slowly in the southern
provinces of Helmand and Kan-
dahar, after the current fighting
season ends, as Afghan security
forces become more capable.
That capacity is being bolstered
by additional training in literacy
and in leadership skills. Mean-
time, U.S. special forces carry out
night raids targeting Taliban
leaders.
The U.S. military also is aiding
the creation of local village police
forces, under control of district
police chiefs. As U.S. forces build
up the south, they will shift some
troops to the troubled eastern
provinces that also border Pakis-
tan.
Now come the caveats.
Illiteracy and attrition still pose
serious problems to Afghan secu-
rity forces; the police are noto-
riously corrupt. So, of course, is
the central Afghan government of
Hamid Karzai, although progress
has been made in securing more
competent police chiefs and
governors at district levels.
Moreover, this summers fight-
ing season will be tough, as the
Taliban focus on assassinating
top officials. Despite U.S. and
Afghan efforts to encourage
low-level Taliban to drop their
guns and reintegrate into society,
not many have taken up that
option so far.
Yet despite these caveats, and
more, I believe it is essential to
limit the troop drawdown this
year. Heres why.
Security progress so far is real
but not consolidated. Afghan
forces could collapse if left on
their own too soon. But paired
with U.S. troops longer they
might gain the confidence to
fight on their own.
But the biggest and most ur-
gent reason to keep the draw-
down limited, at least for this
year, lies in Pakistan. Its weak
civilian government is in disarray,
and its military is infiltrated by
Islamists. The Pakistani army is
having deep trouble fighting its
own jihadis. It insists it didnt
know of bin Ladens presence,
which, if true, indicates deep
failures in its intelligence agen-
cies.
Neither Obama nor Petraeus
will say this out loud, but a prime
reason we must stabilize Af-
ghanistan is to prevent militants
from grabbing Pakistan. Thats
reason enough to give the cur-
rent strategy more time.
Stabilize Afghanistan to help prop up Pakistan

Family grateful
for consolation
A
few weeks ago, our son,
Matthew, was tragically
killed in a motorcycle
accident. Our hearts were
hurled into an abyss of sad-
ness that is unimaginable.
Your heartfelt condolences
and spontaneous support
helped us to bear our pain and
sorrow and let us know what a
difference our son made to so
many lives.
Words or deeds can never
express what your thoughts
and prayers, and especially
your compassionate embraces,
meant to us. From the bottom
of our hearts, we thank each
of you.
Special thanks go to Geis-
ingers trauma center for keep-
ing our son comfortable, and
to its intensive care unit nurs-
es, who truly are saints; the
representative from Gift of
Life, who was so empathetic
and guided us through the
most difficult time; the Wyom-
ing Area School Board and
administrators who allowed
Matt Crake, president of the
West Pittston Rams, his offi-
cers and friends to organize
the vigil; the Parent Associ-
ation and football alumni;
Corpus Christi Parish, for its
spiritual support, along with
the staff who helped to set up
and serve the contributions
from Michaels Restaurant;
and Chelse Gawlik and the
Olive Garden for the gathering
after the cremorial services.
Likewise, our appreciation
goes to all the valuable sup-
port staff members and teach-
ers from the Wyoming Area
Secondary Center, JFK Ele-
mentary, Montgomery Avenue
Elementary, Sara J. Dymond
Elementary and Tenth Street
Elementary, and especially
Miss Murthas and Miss Maz-
zitellis sixth-grade classes
who made sympathy cards for
our younger son, Christopher;
the West Pittston Little
League for keeping my sons
memory alive with the banner
that will hang forever; Ted
Harris and his baseball team,
whose members will respect-
fully carry my sons No. 26 on
their uniforms for their sea-
son; Megan Barney and the
staff at Subway in Pittston,
who worked with my son and
set up a donation collection
for his future daughter; and
the Peter J. Adonizio Funeral
Home for its compassion and
respect to us and our son,
Matthew.
Lastly, we especially thank
our family and friends, mem-
bers of the community and
Matthews friends and class-
mates who took time to be
with us and with Cathryn to
extend your sincerest condo-
lences.

Event makes pitch
for Peace Center
O
n behalf of the Peace Cen-
ter, I offer our sincerest
thanks to Junior Lead-
ership Wilkes-Barre for spon-
soring the Pitch for Peace
Wiffle ball event in April at
Kirby Park. On one of the
most blustery days of the year,
students from Hanover Area,
Meyers and Holy Redeemer
high schools participated in
the bake sale/Wiffle ball tour-
nament to raise money for the
Peace Center.
A special thanks to Arisa
Gereda and Stan Chan for
organizing this event. Their
adult adviser is Neela Patel.
Other students who participa-
ted were Anshuman Sethi,
Kevin Katchko, Leah Majdic,
Rod Cook, Ryan Twardzik,
Sean Bergold, Tinka Diener
and Tony Panaway.
Community support and
fundraising events such as this
enable the Peace Center to
continue its service to the
community.

Track athletes
true champions
I
congratulate Shelley Black,
Quieterra Gross, Darrell
Crawford, Dannah Hayward
and the rest of the athletes
from surrounding areas for
their superb showings in the
recent P.I.A.A. state track and
field events.
My hat goes off to all of
them for a job well done. It
just goes to show that hard
work and dedication pay off at
the end.
Just to qualify for this event
is a great accomplishment, but
to be able to bring home a
medal is something special.
These students represented
our area in great fashion and
are truly champions. Congrat-
ulations to all of you, and
good luck in the future.

Clean house
in W-B election
O
ver the next few months
as we approach the No-
vember election, residents
of Wilkes-Barre might note
that city services suddenly
have been resurrected or en-
hanced; but for those of us
who keep an eye and ear on
City Hall, many of these ac-
tions are considered ploys.
I often smirk at just how
creative some officials are in
order to retain their seats.
I urge Wilkes-Barre resi-
dents to stay focused on the
real issues. The most impor-
tant one is the excessive sala-
ries and benefits that we are
paying our elected City Hall
officials. There also is concern
about the status of the general
fund, the city budget, loans,
gas usage at the city garage,
the duties of the city controll-
er and the ensuing retire-
ments and benefits we will
continue to finance for dec-
ades.
Most of the actions that the
mayor and council take be-
tween now and November are
orchestrated to purposely lead
you away from the reality that
we are being ripped off. Do
not be led astray by neigh-
borhood needs that are consid-
ered, in my estimation, gener-
al duties.
We must focus on dramat-
ically scaling back all elected
city officials salaries and
benefits, as well as the general
fund, and entice industry back
to our city. Opening a slew of
bars shouldnt, by any means,
be considered economic
growth, and in fact only caus-
es more expense in some
cases.
The only way to logically
address once and for all
some, if not all, of our con-
cerns is by electing a new
mayor, an appropriately edu-
cated city controller and an all
new council on Nov. 8.

Barletta making
right decisions
M
r. Stephen Herzenbergs
recent commentary de-
fending the status quo
treatment of Medicare by
Washington Democrats (Mr.
Barletta went to D.C. and
forgot the middle class, May
23) was completely off the
mark.
The newly released Medi-
care trustee report states
without question that Medi-
care is slated to run out of
money by 2024. If we main-
tain the status quo as Mr.
Herzenberg argues, Medicare
will have no money to pay
benefits in 13 years. His pro-
posed fix? Raise taxes.
Are there no liberals cre-
ative enough to propose a
solution to a problem in gov-
ernment that doesnt include a
tax increase?
Tax increases arent the
answer, and neither is kicking
the can down the road as the
last crop of congressmen did.
We elected a new group of
representatives to fix these
problems without raising
taxes.
Lou Barletta was sent to
Washington with a keen
awareness that it was time for
Congress to live within its
means and stop dipping into
the wallets of hardworking
Americans. That is exactly
what he is doing, and that is
one of the many reasons why I
am proud to have him as my
congressman.
Alan Lispi
Old Forge
ONE OF the big
changes recently in
the practice of med-
icine is Medicares
push for physicians
practices and hospitals
to convert their docu-
ments from paper
charts to an electronic medical record
(EMR).
Starting in 2011, medical providers
are given extra reimbursement by Medi-
care for adopting and using an EMR.
The mantra from advocates is that
EMRS allow easy transfer of a patients
medical information from caregiver to
caregiver, avoid duplication of testing,
decrease costs and reduce medical
errors. Much of this is probably true. As
a physician, however, I worry that
EMRs as implemented can actually
downgrade the quality of information
passed between health care teams and
at least, in some ways, increase the cost
of care.
Now, Im a computer-oriented guy. It
irks me to see data collection in my
office occur through the filing of print-
ed, white cellulose sheets in green
cardboard folders a format with no
digital access. I definitely want an EMR.
First problem is that they are rather
expensive. The company that supplies
my current billing software has offered
to install one: for $35,000. For my solo
private practice, thats a lot of money.
Practices spend it, however, because
of a benefit to them little talked about
in public. Insurance companies, and
particularly Medicare, have set up rath-
er convoluted rules regulating physician
reimbursement. To determine payment,
insurance companies factor in the
length of the encounter, the number of
bullet points in the history, the com-
pleteness of the physical exam and the
complexity of the decision making.
The rules are complex. Most of us have
a sense of them; but when seeing a
patient, it is cumbersome to review the
precise rules related to your encounter.
Many doctors will guess at the correct
billing code involved and, if anything,
under code the insurance, for fear of
fines if the practice is ever audited.
EMR companies buffer the sticker
shock of a system with an important
advantage. First, EMRs have the ability
to increase ones billing codes by docu-
menting the actual complexity of an
encounter.
In the long run, Medicare and other
insurances judge your encounter by
whats recorded in the patients record.
During his or her visit did you review
your patients medications or their past
medical history and/or social history?
Most caregivers would, but dont take
the time to document it. Now, with a
couple of mouse clicks, the data is
drawn into the encounter note. Sudden-
ly your documentation is brimming
with bullet points. The software also
can draw in recent lab data, radiologic
results or any data available in the sys-
tem digitally. A10-minute encounter
can look, in the record, as if you spent
an hour with the patient. Im not saying
that providers are defrauding insurers,
but I suspect the ease of documentation
facilitated by an EMR certainly lets
them capture all of the value for each
patient visit.
Now heres the really compelling part
of the EMR sales pitch: Once the note is
digitally recorded, the software can
analyze your patient encounter and
suggest the actual billing code. No
more under coding. EMR vendors
speak of $10,000 to $20,000 of income
added to a practices bottom line per
practitioner. In fairness, by the insur-
ance companys own rules, it is money
owed to providers; but in this setting,
the technology is definitely not decreas-
ing costs.
In the case of large health care sys-
tems, all of the provider advantages are
magnified. Plus, everyone in the system
working with a patient has access to a
single electronic chart with all the clin-
ical data. I have access to a system such
as this and it can be wonderful. The
governments plan is that in the future
all EMRs will be able to talk to each
other in this fashion.
There are other problems, however.
As EMRs proliferate, and increased
Medicare scrutiny looms, medical docu-
mentation is evolving from its original
goal of recording what actually was
going on with a patient, and what the
provider was actually thinking, to ster-
ile boilerplate documents designed to
justify the highest billing codes.
In years past, a well-written history
and physical, or progress note, would
unfold like a story, giving a vivid de-
scription of the patients symptoms and
physical exam at the point of the en-
counter, as well as the synthesis of the
data and the plan of care.
In an EMR an H and P is often
reduced to random collections of data
combined digitally with sterile prose
that describes weakly, if at all, the clin-
ical situation.
This problem occurs because most
physicians dont type fast enough to be
efficient using an EMR. Because of this,
they are prompted to use what EMR
companies refer as smart phrases,
pre-composed text designed for rele-
vance in a broad range of circumstanc-
es. Dictation into the record is some-
times an option, but transcription is
expensive.
So most electronic medical records
tend to be full of data, but short on
nuance. I currently dictate most of the
notes in my office and hope that they
convey my exact thoughts to my col-
leagues. I do worry that an EMR might
degrade this.
Much of my inpatient work is at
sub-acute facilities and involves accept-
ing transfers from acute care hospitals.
Because of this, I often have to review
complex hospital records. Given the
current technology, old-fashioned writ-
ten notes, which tend to be brief but
focused on the important details of
care, are far easier to digest than their
all-inclusive, and often repetitive, digital
counterparts.
So how do we improve EMRs? First, I
think we need to find a way to separate
the documentation for billings sake,
from that needed for patient care.
These are supposed to be medical re-
cords for clinical use, not part of a con-
test between medical billers and insur-
ance companies.
We need to provide a way for practi-
tioners to document their exact
thoughts in the electronic record in a
cost-efficient way. This might happen as
younger caregivers, who tend to type,
come into the work force. I hope that
improvement in speech-to-text software
will be a solution for us more establish-
ed physicians.
As I am hopefully in the middle of my
career, I am extremely excited about
the potential for this technology. I look
forward to the efficiency and improve-
ments in quality it might bring.
I just dont want it to highjack my
documentation for its own purposes.

GNA Forum head
defends opinions
I
n response to letters to the
editor by Sandy Harvey
Sadowski (May 12) and
Theresa Sowa (May 20), these
two women seemingly chose
to attack me for expressing
my opinion regarding the
recent Greater Nanticoke Area
school board election.
As president of the GNA
Taxpayers Forum and a con-
tinuous forum member for 20
years, I think its apparent that
they didnt like the candidates
I supported.
Mrs. Sadowski wrote that
the forum was defunct. The
forum is not defunct; we have
our regular loyal members and
also loyal executive board
members. We dont hold regu-
lar meetings, as most people
dont like attending meetings.
We get together whenever we
feel it is necessary.
Speaking of meetings, I
dont see either Mrs. Sadowski
or Mrs. Sowa at school board
meetings and I attend most
of them.
This year I endorsed the
GNA Five for the school
board seats. As a regular at-
tendee at school board meet-
ings, I felt that they have been
doing a good job and earned
the endorsement. Thats all I
can do, express my opinion.
There are many voters who
ask me for my opinion as to
who I think the best candi-
dates are, and I tell them. Ive
been doing this for 20 years
and will continue to do so
despite your criticism.

Writer rebuffs
critique of Obama
A
fter reading Stephen Alini-
koffs commentary (Oba-
ma misses yet another
chance to lead this country,
May 25), I felt that it deserved
a response.
Mr. Alinikoff, you are full of
it.
Im making an assumption,
but from the tenor and the
words of your column, the
parts about your generation of
teenagers and college students
and the civil rights battle here
in America, how we adopted
the cause of civil rights, its
almost as if you were one of
the many Freedom Riders of
that era, some of whom were
murdered for their cause.
If you were one of those
people who actively participa-
ted in some way large or
small for justice, I respect
you but think you have lost
your way. Because, if you
really mean your own words,
then you must realize that the
Palestinian people are also
yearning for freedom, have
been for 60 years and are still
waiting.
If you did not participate,
but are only using words to try
and influence next years elec-
tion, I say you are in the same
category as the Republican
operative who has been busy
editing audio and video to
make liberals appear to be
saying and doing things that
they didnt say, or do.
You wrote that Obama be-
trayed our ally Israel. How,
exactly? By stating publicly
what has been the American
governments unspoken policy
for many years and through
many administrations: that
Israel should return to the
borders before the Six Day
War? That occupation is
wrong?
We are having enough trou-
ble and heartache occupying
Afghanistan, which itself is
wrong. Why should we sup-
port Israels occupation of
Palestinian lands?
Yes, some of them send
rockets into Israel. And, yes,
Israel bulldozes houses in the
Gaza Strip in reprisal, mostly
belonging to people innocent
of terrorism.
Israel faces many challeng-
es. I want to see it survive and
thrive, along with its Arab
neighbors. But how is that
possible with Israel constantly
expanding its borders by way
of new settlements into land
that was owned by others?
Can you answer that question,
please?
Why is it probable to you
that Israel can build more and
more settlements for more
and more imported people on
others land and not suffer
more hate, more terrorist
attacks and maybe someday
that existential threat about
which Israel is so fond of
screaming?
I did not address most of
the questions you posed in the
commentary because it
seemed that they were not
really questions but rather
ideas to be planted into the
minds of 2012s voters.
You really didnt say much
except Israel good, Obama
bad.
Liberals, including this one,
are not too happy with Oba-
ma, either. We should be total-
ly out of Afghanistan and Iraq
by now; we should have the
card check law for unions; we
should have greater credit
card protection than what was
passed; we should have Wall
Street and the banking system
totally under control. These
are things that would benefit
the average American, and
they havent happened.
Obama has been an imper-
fect president. But we have
been an imperfect people,
supporting an imperfect Con-
gress. So I will in 2012 be
voting for an imperfect presi-
dent because, to tell you the
truth, he will be better than
anyone you would offer.
And, Mr. Alinikoff, peace
will not come to the Mideast
until both Arab and Israel
truly want it.
I think the Arabs need less
hate, and Israel needs less
arrogance. The real question
is, like the chicken and the
egg, which will come first.
Because they feed each other.
I would think, though I
might be wrong, that the party
with the most power should
be the one to make the first
honest move, and that party is
Israel a country with ad-
vanced arms, supplied mainly
by an Obama-led America, and
its own nuclear weapons.
I think you should look into
the mirror, admit that you,
and Israel, have been wrong
these many years, and mag-
ically become a liberal. But
just the thought probably
makes you shudder. Oh well. I
tried.
Peace.

Despite accident,
keep church open
T
he Diocese of Scranton has
touched off a firestorm
with the closing of various
churches over the years within
the Wilkes-Barre area. That
firestorm has now become
personal.
As Sacred Heart Slovak
Church officials announced
that Lenten Masses would be
held daily, those steadfast in
the mission to keep the church
open vowed to support this
seemingly final endeavor to
preserve their place of solace.
However, those hopefuls
anticipated that their support
would spark a renewed effort
to keep the church open. Scaf-
folding, barriers and tape
cautioned those entering and
exiting the facility, as if an
ever-present reminder to those
optimistic patrons that the
end is inevitable for Sacred
Heart.
My mother was one of those
churchgoers for the Lenten
Masses. Devoted to the pres-
ervation of her place of wor-
ship and vowing her support
for the daily Masses, she faced
an unfortunate circumstance.
On her birthday in March, she
was injured after falling on a
pool of ice that apparently
formed on the steps from the
water dripping from the scaf-
folding. She was hospitalized
for several days, and under-
went hip replacement surgery.
She has endured extensive
rehabilitation that will last for
months, if not years. My
mothers life has been altered
forever.
But, more sadly, the church
officials in the Diocese of
Scranton apparently will use
this event as an example of
why Sacred Heart Church
should be deemed unsafe and
will hail it as justification for
its closure.
I remain hopeful that Sacred
Heart Parish will not close.
The building is safe.

Legal immigration
seen as detriment
T
he efforts by Americas
highly ideological, multi-
culturalist ruling class to
transform the population and
overcome the voting strength
and cultural dominance of
Americas white middle class
is succeeding.
Thanks to mass legal chain
immigration and poorly pro-
tected borders, Hispanics
accounted for more than half
of the nations population
growth over the last 10 years,
according to 2010 census data.
Overall, racial and ethnic
minorities made up an unprec-
edented 90 percent of the total
U.S. population growth since
2000. Besides legal and illegal
immigration, higher birth
rates among those groups
were a significant contributing
factor.
The transformation of the
United States from a mostly
white European-driven nation
to a mostly non-white Hispan-
ic, Caribbean, Asian and Afri-
can nation is well under way,
confirmed by the analysis of
demographers. This all started
in 1965, when the McCarran-
Walter Immigration Act was
scuttled and replaced with the
Hart-Celler Act, which is a law
of lies.
But Im the only one to
point out these injustices.
Politicians, including Con-
gressman Lou Barletta, talk
only about illegal immigra-
tion. If people dont soon
speak up about legal immigra-
tion, whites will no longer be
a viable race. Its really shame-
ful to be pushed around and
not respond to elites and other
groups.

The PreK-3 movement, which
refers to the years spanning pre-
kindergarten to third grade,
wants to revolutionize early
education through an ambi-
tious list of connected initia-
tives, including universal ac-
cess to free public preschool,
mandatory full-day kindergar-
ten and a curriculum that is
seamlessly connected from pre-
school to third grade. Increas-
ing parental involvement is also
a major focus.
But some educators and ex-
perts have questioned how fea-
sible and replicable the agenda
is, especially as the financial cri-
sis has forced states to cut pre-
school and full-day kindergar-
ten. And critics and advocates
alike have acknowledged that
evidence supporting the collec-
tive reforms is scarce. The few
schools and districts that have
implemented parts or all of the
PreK-3 agenda have shown
mixed results so far.
There are a lot of reasons
why it should work, and why it
would work, said Robert Pian-
ta, the dean of the Curry School
of Education at the University
of Virginia. We just havent
beenable to pinthe model down
to evaluate it in a way to say that
its proven effective in improv-
ing achievement.
Nevertheless, the PreK-3
movement has gathered in-
creasing attention and private
money over the past five years.
Proponents say their ideas
could help reduce gaps in
achievement between disadvan-
taged and advantaged children
before they start, and save mon-
ey on interventions for older
students.
A handful of foundations
including the Foundation for
Child Development, the Bill &
Melinda Gates Foundation and
the New Schools Foundation
together are spending millions
to support the movement. (Dis-
closure: the Foundation for
Child Development and the
Gates Foundation are among
The Hechinger Reports many
former and current funders.) At
the same time, an increasing
number of schools, districts and
even whole states, including
Nevada, Wyoming and Wash-
ington, are in the process of im-
plementing the reforms.
There isnt anybody in edu-
cation now that doesnt under-
stand if you can get it right, pre-
school to kindergarten through
third grade, that kid is going to
succeed, Washington Gov.
Christine Gregoire said in a ra-
dio interview last year.
The growing momentum be-
hind PreK-3 is less than five
years old, but the ideas fueling
its agenda can be traced back to
the 1960s, when researchers
were first examining the dimin-
ishing effects of Head Start, the
federally funded preschool pro-
gram for low-income children.
Since then, projects to ease
the transition from early educa-
tion to elementary school have
been tried, with mixed results.
There have been successes,
however.
One recent example is the
South Shore K-8 School in Seat-
tle. The school was opened in
2001 with the help of a private
foundation as a model for
PreK-3 reforms. It has imple-
mented a research-tested curri-
culum that extends from pre-
school through elementary
school, as well as small classes
and intensive teacher training.
A 2010 report by ECONorth-
west, a research company,
found that students at the
school scored higher than ex-
pected on state reading and
math tests. The school didnt
close the achievement gap for
its African-American students,
but they did perform better
than their peers at other Seattle
schools.
Still, the broad nature of the
PreK-3 reforms has led to con-
cerns that it is too vague. I
think there are common perim-
eters, Pianta said. But I dont
think theres a lot of clarity.
Another critique of the
PreK-3 model, by Ron Haskins,
co-director of the Brookings
Center on Children and Fam-
ilies in Washington, can be
summarized in one word: mon-
ey.
Many schools and districts
have relied on foundation fund-
ing to implement elements of
the PreK-3 reforms, but private
money is scarce and usually
time-limited.
In Santa Maria, lack of money
is one of the problems adminis-
trators and teachers have en-
countered. Even as they work to
improve connections between
preschool and the elementary
grades, many children still do
not have access to early educa-
tion at all. So far, the citys ef-
forts have corresponded with
only small test-score gains.
But down the road, Santa Ma-
rias ideas are being carried on,
and expanded. In the California
seaside town of Carpinteria,
educators borrowing from San-
ta Maria are trying to create an
educational path that extends
from cradle to college for ev-
ery child in the district.
The local school district is
working to improve the quality
of teaching in its elementary
schools. Using private grants,
the town has created a commu-
nity center that includes pre-
school classes, English classes
for adults, and even classrooms
where stay-at-home moms can
bring their toddlers for a pre-
school-like environment.
Theres no evidence yet that
the project leads to better re-
sults, but townofficials, just like
their counterparts inthe nation-
al PreK-3 movement, are hope-
ful that in the next few years,
more definitive research will
showtheir approach is working.
It used to be the idea that if
everybody completed pre-
school, they were going to be
fine. But that may not cut it,
said Paul Cordero, the Carpin-
teria superintendent. Its like a
30-cylinder engine. All the parts
have to work.
Others remain skeptical.
I dont think that theres
good evidence that if we could
somehow shape the preschools
to be more consistent with the
public schools, or vice versa,
that it would have a major im-
pact, Haskins said. But its
still a good idea. Education
ought to be organized.

know what to expect.
He wound up in the Navy in-
stead, serving deployments of
eight months and seven months.
Looking back, he said, he was
young and dumb when he en-
listed, with dreams of coming
home a war hero.
He said he thought it would be
a war where it would be easy to
spot the enemy. But he learned
that things were muchmore com-
plicated.
That was youthful igno-
rance, Smithsaid. Theseguys, I
mean, they hid among the civil-
ians.
His 5 1/2-year stint included a
four-month course to become a
medic, which eventually led to
his job as corpsman. Smith re-
called treating many Iraqi civil-
ians who got caught in the cross-
fire. And he witnessed his share
of death.
People die, sure, he said.
Thats just the reality of the
thing.
While Smith talks openly
about most subjects, he wont say
whether he actually shot anyone
in combat.
There was a war going on and
I had guns, he said. I used
them.
Whenhe left the militaryat age
23, Smith said it was a tough and
lonely readjustment.
He said that he had a record of
working under fire and that he
thought he had acquired a broad
range of technical and leadership
skills that would help him quick-
ly land a job.
I thought that hadto count for
something, he said. This did
not prove to be the case.
Whenhe got home, Smithsaid,
he had $12,000 in savings, so he
decided to take some time off.
A few months later, he was
broke. Then, when he needed
work the most, the economy was
battered by recession, and jobs
were scarce. He said he applied
for hundreds of jobs.
There was a point where I was
applying for five different jobs ev-
ery day and was just not getting
anything back, he said. It didnt
matter, whether it was doorman
at a nightclub or short-order
cook, anything that was open, I
was going to take.
After going to a two-week bar-
tending class, he landed a part-
time bartending job at a local
VFWclub, but that lastedonlysix
weeks, until the club decided it
had too many bartenders.
Then Smith worked as a mail
sorter for two months after land-
ing the job through a temporary
employment agency. Hes
worked as a day laborer, too.
When his money was com-
pletely gone, he spent four nights
and five days at a local hospital,
participating in a study for a new
drug for traumatic brain injuries.
My momfelt it was more risky
than I did, he said. I thought it
was safe enough to proceed. And
I thought the money was worth
it.
Smithplans touse the GI bill to
go to community college this fall.
He wants to get a degree in politi-
cal science and sees himself
working in Washington at some
point. He wants to get his own
house.
In the meantime, Smith has
been spending much of his time
on Capitol Hill, promoting caus-
es as a volunteer spokesman for
the Iraq and Afghanistan Veter-
ans of America (IAVA).
In late March, he and 27 other
veterans participated in IAVAs
Storm the Hill lobbying cam-
paign. Theywent to117offices on
Capitol Hill and met with 57
members of Congress, asking
them to commission a study on
military vocational skills and cer-
tifications.
Smith and other veterans com-
plain that the skills they learn in
the military arent enough to get
them civilian certifications in
their fields when they return
home.
Most recently, Smith has been
lobbying Congress to pass a bill
that would for the first time
require U.S. personnel toenroll in
a federal job-training programbe-
fore theyre allowed to leave the
military.
The legislationis sponsoredby
Murray, the chairman of the Sen-
ate Veterans Affairs Committee,
who invited Smith to testify at a
hearing and to speak at a news
conference where she introduced
the legislation.
As the civilian unemployment
rate declines, joblessness among
new veterans continues to sky-
rocket this is unacceptable,
Smith said. As a country, we
must act now to reverse this
trend.
Murray said that Smith puts
a human face on the issue of
veteran joblessness, providing
a firsthand account of what it
is like to come home from two
tours in Iraq, serving our na-
tion, only to fight every day to
find a job.
You should know Erics story
is so not alone, she said.
I have heard this over and
over and over again. We invest
an incredible amount of money
in training our servicemen and
women in specific skills, in his
case as a medic. And they come
home and that doesnt count.
Thats just crazy for our coun-
try to continue to do that.

The governor panicked last
February when Seattle-based
Amazon.com said it would close
a Texas warehouse, costing
about 120 jobs more if an
expansion it huffed about ever
happened because the state
wanted it to pay sales taxes.
Stampeding over Republican
State Comptroller Susan Combs
in an obsequious play to mollify
the giant mail order house, he
assured its execs that the chief
Texas tax collector just didnt
know what she was doing when
she billed them $269 million.
We believe she did. But now
lawyers are running their me-
ters to determine who is right,
and Perry has derailed over-
whelming Legislative approval
of a bill that would have given
Texas merchants a needed
break.
When Amazon and other
online companies operate in our
state sales tax-free because they
dont have storefronts, they can
undercut the prices in Main
Street stores of every product
imaginable.
Vetoed Bill May Be
Resurrected
We hope the bill Perry vetoed
will be resurrected within other
legislation before the special
session ends. At a time when
state revenue has withered like
drought-starved pastureland, the
Legislative Budget Board esti-
mates it would provide an extra
$6 million to the state next year
and $18 million in 2016.
As a West Texan, surely the
governor has heard it said:
Well dance with the ones who
brung us. There are about two
million people working in the
retail stores of our state many
of them small businesses.
Of course, Perry shouldnt be
blamed if his zeal to protect all
business just overpowered
thoughtful reasoning and good
judgment this once. But his
record shows that while blather-
ing endlessly about protecting
small business and citizens from
government excess, he often
does just the opposite.
There are examples sufficient
to fill a book, but this is an edi-
torial. So here are just a couple:
A discarded centerpiece of
Perrys early administration was
his plan to run ranchers, farmers
and others off about 584,000
acres of Texas countryside to
stream traffic of all kinds past
cities and towns on $175 billion
worth of super tollways run by
private companies. After six
years of enormous public oppo-
sition including from both the
state Republican and Democrat-
ic parties the project was
killed. No super highways were
built, but the campaign funds of
the projects champions, in-
cluding Perry, were enriched by
over $3 million by contractors
while lobbying lounge lizards
pocketed more than $6 million.
Regrettably, the concept is
still lurking in Austin where it is
favored by both Perry and the
Texas Department of Trans-
portation and opposed by
groups like the Texas Tea Party
PAC. In many cases, these
projects involve transferring
control of seized Texas land and
existing public right-of-ways to
private corporations via so-
called public-private partner-
ships, the organization said in a
letter to Perry last month that
detailed several more sensible
ways to improve the states
highway system.
A Loathsome and Unfair Tax
On his watch, Texas busi-
nesses were saddled with the
most odious tax ever contrived
when the state franchise tax was
restructured. With Perrys ap-
proval this tax is now collected
as a percentage of business
revenue instead of profit. That
means a business can make very
little or even lose money but
still owe a large tax to the Per-
rys business friendly Texas. It
is particularly punishing for
small start-ups and struggling
businesses and has been known
to push some into bankruptcy
and their owners into suicide.
While some true conservatives
have advocated changes to make
the tax fair, the governor and
the Republican leadership have
shown little interest in the issue.
A Republican-sponsored bill that
made modest improvement in
the tax died in the Republican
Senate. If the coyote slayer
wants to do something for small
business, let him push this bill
through the special session.
Perrys messages on border
security and tax-and-spend
government hit the target, res-
onating loud and clear. But,
unfortunately, his carefully-
cultivated image as a straight-
shootin conservative Texan is
overwhelmed by the reality of
his 27-year career as a profes-
sional politician.
What weve got in the Texas
governors office is a telegenic
show dog. We dont need anoth-
er one of those critters in the
White House.
Roy E. Bode is a native of the
Old Texas who didnt let his
experience as a former Washing-
ton Bureau Chief and editor of a
major metropolitan newspaper
stand in the way of more pleasur-
able pursuits like riding cutting
horses. He now lives in the Texas
Hill Country where he owns The
Highlander of Marble Falls and
other community newspapers.
People there know real cowboys
seldom shoot coyotes while jog-
ging but may occasionally rope
one from horseback.

HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
The end does not justify
the means now in fact,
the means are all that
matters. Furthermore,
your mood and attitude
as you are carrying out
your methods will have the
greatest impact of all.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
You turn the world into
your playground. You
might not wind up in the
most entertaining circum-
stances today, but youre
sure to have fun with
whatever circumstances
you encounter.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Creative partnerships are
as particular as any kind
of love match. If you cant
find the fun in it and con-
tinually feel resistant to
the other persons ideas,
its not a good match, but
its nothing personal.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
What would it take for
you to become more con-
fident? Whatever it is, do
it. Your confidence is far
below what it should be
right now, considering all
youve accomplished in life
to get where you are.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
Instead of having a goal of
making the most money
or befriending the most
people, heres a goal that
will change your life: Have
the most fun. A playful
spirit will attract all the
best to you.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
You have the power to
change peoples moods.
You know this because
youve worked magic on
yourself, and youre one
tough customer. So talk
others into an excited
state, just like you do for
yourself.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
It is human nature to
remember what has been
left incomplete. Your mind
keeps going back to a
certain place, trying to get
closure on the scene. Tie
up as many loose ends as
possible so you can finally
move on.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
You are in a curious mood.
Youll keep asking ques-
tions all day, and at night
your dreams will continue
the theme. Note that most
of these questions are
best asked internally.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Theres a wild glint in
your eye, which suggests
youre cooking up some
daring ideas. Well, some-
one has to snap these
people out of their bore-
dom trance, and it may as
well be you!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). Youll be mentally
burning the candle at both
ends to meet todays intel-
lectual challenges. The
games and exercises you
enjoy have helped to give
you the stamina to stay
spry to the end.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
You might know what your
mistakes were in the past,
though this knowing alone
is not enough to create
change in the future. You
must be able to create the
mental state that will allow
you to make a new choice.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
The road to good conver-
sation, and possibly to
making a sale, will not be
an easy street. This is a
treacherous path, filled
with potholes and slippery
slopes that must be avoid-
ed. Take your time.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY
(June 12). You are more
charming than you know.
Someone will fall for you,
becoming smitten with
your lovely manners and
the level of attention you
so effortlessly give those
around you. A nugget of
knowledge will lead you
to make extra money in
July. September brings
the completion of a goal.
You share a special con-
nection with Cancer and
Scorpio people. Your lucky
numbers are: 4, 15, 3, 34
and 22.

1. By the way, did you ever notice
that dogs cant dance very well?
Theres a good reason. Its because
they have two left feet!
2. A professor saw a chicken cross
the main street and stop halfway.
When he asked why, the rooster told
him, "she wants to lay it on the line."
3. Ponder these very grave words of
wisdom for the compulsively
opinionated: A closed mouth gathers
no foot.
4. The big turkey living on my dads
farm was very cruel and aggressive
toward the other birds in the flock.
Now Im gladiator.
DEAR ABBY
Family members run for
cover from talk marathons
Dear Abby:
No one in
my family
will tell my
grandmother
the reason
they dont
call her is she talks too
much. None of us is retired
like she is, and our evenings
are chaotic enough without a
two-hour conversation with
her. Relatives ask me to relay
messages on their behalf so
they wont have to call her.
Shes always crying and tell-
ing me Im the only one who
is good to her.
Id feel guilty if I had to tell
Grandma the truth but
I, as well as the rest of the
family, have had enough of
her long, guilt-inducing talks
and trips down memory lane
from 1940. How can I get the
point across without devas-
tating her sensitive nature?
Captive Audience in
Florida
Dear Captive Audience:
The next time your grand-
mother tells you youre the
only one who is good to her,
you need to tell her shed
have better luck with the
other relatives if she limited
the length of her phone calls
to them. Encourage her to
find other interests so she
isnt as lonely and dependent
as she appears to be. To do
so isnt cruel; youll be doing
her a favor because whats
driving people away is her
neediness.
I dont know what your
grandmother retired from,
but she should have retired
TO something more than
her telephone. She should be
encouraged to get out and
volunteer.
Dear Abby: I received a
wedding invitation from my
step-cousin. She has been
part of the family since we
were kids. We have always
had a friendly relationship.
My problem is, my last
name is misspelled on the in-
vitation. Im married, so I no
longer use the family name.
Id like to correct her for
future reference, but I dont
want to hurt anyones feel-
ings. Whats the proper thing
to do in this situation?
Drop the E, Please, in
Pittsburgh
Dear Drop the E: Whoev-
er addressed your invitation
may have been in a hurry, or
your married name may have
been incorrectly entered
into a database. Because you
are friendly with your step-
cousin, call her and remind
her about the proper spell-
ing of your married name.
Wouldnt you want to know?
I would.

State Park in Benton and some
abstract pieces.
Stritzinger favors Ricketts
Glen, saying there are hidden
beauties there, as proveninhis fa-
vorite photo, Swirling Rock.
The photo focuses on a single,
large piece of rock with shadows
that seem to fall in all the right
places, making it look as though
its caught in a swirling pattern
with its surroundings.
Many people tell me they
thinkthe picture was takensome-
where in the Southwest, Stritz-
inger said, but I tell them no,
this beautiful creation is right
here in our backyard.
He prefers the traditional
method of film development be-
cause of the incandescence it
brings to a black-and-white pho-
to.
If you get it just right, the pho-
to is very luminous, he said. Its
not all the time, but whenit turns
out that way its like magic.
Healsoprefers gloomydays for
shooting.
If its gorgeous outside, I dont
go shoot. Ill wait until its over-
cast. That way the light is evened
out and softer.
Not only does he develop his
own film, he also mounts all his
photographs. The Silver Land-
scape took him a year to put to-
gether.
As the digital age takes over
the photography industry, is
Stritzinger worried his way of
shootinganddevelopingfilmwill
be left behind?
Not in my lifetime, no, he
said. I think the supplies will
still be available for photogra-
phers like myself, and people will
still be interested to see what tra-
ditional film can do.
Stritzinger took photography
classes at Luzerne County Com-
munity College and Marywood
University and, during the past
several years, has attended work-
shops hosted by John Sexton, a
highly respected, award-winning
fine-arts photographer based in
California whose work has been
showcased in several advertising
campaigns, such as General Mo-
tors, and in publications such as
Time and Life.

NEW YORK Titanic is
coming back to theaters in 3-D.
Paramount Pictures and 20th
Century Fox have announced
that James Camerons Oscar-
winning film will be re-released
April 6 next year.
It will coincide with the100th
anniversary of the Titanic set-
ting sail on April 10.
Cameron says the film was
painstakingly converted to
3-Dand promises an epic expe-
rience.
Titanic was releasedin1997
and won 11 Academy Awards
and grossed more than $1.8 bil-
lion worldwide. That gross is
second only to Camerons Ava-
tar.

Of 11partners and resident art-

ists at the private gallery in Roch-
ester, the western New York city
where George Eastman trans-
formed photography from an ar-
cane hobby into a mass commod-
ity with his $1 Brownie in 1900,
the Thompsons are the only ones
left who havent switched to film-
less digital cameras.
But that time may be near.
I like the color we get in film,
the natural light, says Phyllis
Thompson, 70, who married her
high-school sweetheart 50 years
ago. But digital cameras are get-
ting muchbetter all the time, and
there will come a time when we
probably wont be able to get film
anymore. And then well have to
change.
At the turn of the 21st century,
American shutterbugs were buy-
ing close to a billion rolls of film
per year. This year, they might
buy a mere 20 million, plus 31
millionsingle-use cameras the
beach-resort staple vacationers
turn to in a pinch, according to
the Photo Marketing Associ-
ation.
Eastman Kodak Co. marketed
the worlds first flexible-roll film
in 1888. By 1999, more than 800
million rolls were sold in the
United States alone. The next
year marked the apex for com-
bined U.S. sales of rolls of film
(upward of 786 million) and sin-
gle-use cameras (162 million).
Equally startling has been the
plunge in film camera sales dur-
ing the past decade. Domestic
purchases have tumbled from
19.7 million cameras in 2000 to
280,000in2009andmight dipbe-
low100,000this year, says Yukihi-
ko Matsumoto, the Jackson,
Mich.-based associations chief
researcher.
For InfoTrends imaging ana-
lyst Ed Lee, films fade-out is
moving sharply into focus: If I
extrapolate the trend for film
sales andretirements of filmcam-
eras, it looks like film will be
mostly gone in the U.S. by the
end of the decade.
Just who are the die-hards,
holdouts and hangers-on?
Among those who still rely on
filmat least part of the time
are advanced amateurs and a
smattering of professionals who
specialize in nature, travel, scien-
tific, documentary, museum, fine
art and forensic photography,
market surveys show.
Regular point-and-shoot adher-
ents who havent made the
switch tend be poorer or older
55 and up.
But theres alsoa swellingband
of new devotees who grew up in
the digital age and may have got-
ten hooked fromspending a mag-
ical hour in the darkroom during
a high school or college class.
Others are simply drawn to its
strengths over digital and are
even venturing into retro-photo
careers.
In everything from wedding
toportrait tocommercial photog-
raphy, young professionals are
finding digital so prevalent that
theyre looking for a sense of dif-
ferentiation, says Kayce Baker, a
marketing director at Fujifilm
North America. That artistic
look is something their high-end
clients want to see.
Kodak remains the worlds big-
gest film manufacturer, with Ja-
pans Fuji right on its tail. But the
consumer and professional films
they make have dwindled to a
precious fewdozen filmstocks in
a handful of formats, becoming
one more factor in the mammoth
drop-off in film processing.
Scotts Photo in Rochester fi-
nally stopped daily processing of
color print film this year because
fewer than one in 20 customers
were dropping off film. A decade
ago, we could process 300 rolls
on a good day, and now we see
maybe 8 or 10 rolls on the few
days we actually process, owner
Scott Sims says.
For the hustling masses,
theres no turning back the clock.
Theres so many digital imag-
es taken every day, especially
with mobile media, that never
will hit a piece of paper, says
Therese Mulligan, administra-
tive chair of the School of Photo-
graphic Arts and Sciences at
Rochester Institute of Technolo-
gy.
Even at major photography
schools, film is an elective spe-
cialty.
Our entire first two years cur-
riculum is digital in orientation,
Mulligan says. Those that fol-
low a fine-art option are the first
to gravitate toward film. Other
genres we teach photojournal-
ism or advertising or biomedical
have a stronger digital empha-
sis because of the industry itself.
In a rich irony, films newest
fans not unlike music aficiona-
dos who swear by vinyl records
are being drawn together via
the rise of the Internet.
The technology that enabled
the demise of film is actually
helping to keep it relevant with
specific types of users, says IDC
analyst Chris Chute.
But with the film market
shrinking by more than 20 per-
cent annually, most other signs
point downhill. Analysts foresee
Kodak offloading its still-profit-
able film division sometime in
thenext half-dozenyears as it bat-
tles to complete a long and pain-
ful digital transformation.
Kodak will churn out a variety
of films as long as theres suffi-
cient demand for each of them,
says Scott DiSabato, its market-
ing manager for professional
film. It has even launched four
new types since 2007.
While digital has largely closed
the image-quality gap, DiSabato
says a top-line film camera using
large-format film is still unsur-
passed in recording high-resolu-
tion images.
The beauty withfilmis a lot of
wonderful properties are inher-
ent and dont require work after-
ward, whereas digital can in-
volve heavy computer manipula-
tion to get the same effect, DiS-
abato says.
In the extreme, they call it
stomped on, he said. But a lot
of photographers want to be pho-
tographers, not computer techni-
cians. Andsome prizedfilmcapa-
bilities grain, color hues, skin-
tone reproduction cant quite
be duplicated no matter how
much stomping goes on.
Gary Thompson, whos been
exhibiting his best photos for 32
years, captured his Yosemite pic-
ture on medium-format slide film
which is 4 1/2 times bigger
than 35 mmfilmduring one of
many weeks-long photo jaunts
with his wife.
In the digitally scanned, 24-
by-30-inch print, the shadow
from a dipping sun has climbed
halfway up El Capitan. The
wooded, black-and-white fore-
ground with its lacy snow pat-
terns stands in stark contrast to
the golden glow on the granite
cliff face under a blue sky.
I dont know if I could have
gotten this print that large with
that kind of detail using a digital
camera without shooting sever-
al images and blending them to-
gether in Photoshop, he says.
What attracts me to shoot in al-
most all instances is thequalityof
light, and theres something
about film and working with it
and the way it records that I just
like.
Thompson feels acutely that
hes reaching the end of an era.
As peoples film cameras
break down, rather than purchas-
ing another one, they move to
digital, he says. Eventually,
well probably be doing that.
Theres a certain nostalgia in-
volved, particularly when Im
workingwithoneof mybighusky
cameras. That will be sad. But
hey, when it happens, Ill adjust.

INTHE INDUSTRY
Scranton through June 29, has
lots of reasons for preferring the
older equipment and supplies.
Consider the film, for example.
If youhaveadigital camerawitha
cardthat holds hundreds of imag-
es, you might be tempted to
shoot wildly, with little thought
or planning. Knowing you have,
say, one roll of filmwith 36 expo-
sures, youll be more selective.
I have students who take
2,500 images a day. If I shot 2,500
in my lifetime, Id be surprised,
Forelli said. Its about taking the
images seriously.
Taking images seriously, as he
does, means Forelli wants as
much control as possible.
If a camera does everything for
you, youre at the mercy of the
camera, saidForelli, who prefers
to select the depth of field, aper-
ture size and shutter speed him-
self.
When he shoots at night, for
example, he knows it can be diffi-
cult to have detail in both the
highlights andtheshadows of the
image. I can achieve that with
film, and its not achievable with
digital, he said. There are ways
of exposing film and developing
it so you get all that lumines-
cence.
Admirers of his work, will see a
luminescent quality again and
again, as Forelli shoots such im-
ages as rustic barns and win-
dows, rocky coastlines, rushing
rivers and footprints in the snow.
If some of his images look fa-
miliar, it might be because they
have been incorporated into Ap-
ple Macintosh operating systems
as desktop background choices.
His work also has been exhib-
ited at the Steinhardt Conserva-
tory Gallery of the Brooklyn Bo-
tanic Garden, the Mercedes Benz
Gallery of New York, the Art In-
stitute of Atlanta, the Whyte Mu-
seum of the Canadian Rockies
and Hoopers Gallery in London,
England.
In a review, The New York
Times said Forellis photos have
a spiritual quality andcover an
impressive range of ideas and in-
terpretations revealing uncan-
ny simultaneous experiences
with alternating haze and hard-
edged clarity.
In addition to photographing
purely for himself, Forelli has
worked on assignment for such
advertising and corporate clients
as BMW, Land Rover, AT&T and
Eastman Kodak. He also has
done pro-bono work for Doctors
Without Borders.
FILM
Describing color in photographs as a distraction, Chip Forelli
prefers black-and-white images. He shot this one through the
window of a covered bridge, to give it a natural kind of frame.
Chip Forelli spent time in rural New England as a boy and still has
a great appreciation for nature.

Best books for dads
By ALLEN PIERLEONI McClatchy Newspapers
Curt Avery
buys and sells an-
tiques at flea mar-
kets and shows.
He knows his
stuff. He can date
a watercolor to
the 1890s by the
style of the fishing
pole it shows, or a
stitched sampler
to the late 18th
century by a quirk
in the lettering.
His knowledge
gives him an edge,
letting him buy,
say, a piece of
stonewear from a
shop and selling it
later for $1,000
profit.
Any fan of PBS Antiques Roadshow
would love to spend time with him. And
thats just the opportunity Maureen Stan-
ton gives us in Killer Stuff and Tons of
Money. Shetakes us alongas Averyloads

or open field, to see what he can do.
Itsafascinatinglookat thelifeof profes-
sional dealers who check out all the stuff
at these shows before the rest of us even
show up. In this world, Avery (thats a
pseudonym, at his request) can make a
$1,300salebeforeheevensetsup, orlosea
chance for $1,000 profit by reaching an-
other dealers table five seconds too late.
Theappearanceof arental truckat theset-
up for a flea market is good news, we
learn. Its the mark of an amateur seller
ripe for the picking. Fresh blood, as Av-
ery puts it.
But antiques dealers arent always in
the drivers seat. Stanton tells us how
theyre affected by popular trends, eBay,
Antiques Roadshow and even the
weather at outdoor events.
For Avery, its not really about the mon-
ey, she tells us. Hes lured by his love for
the old objects and the stories they tell.
And before long, her readers get swept
along by his knowledge and the world he
operates in. They may not make a penny
fromthis book, but its a wise investment.

The narrative jumps around among
Henry and a number of other disparate
characters his ex, his sonanddaughter-
in-law, his former business colleagues and
the man who persists in stalking him
and the effect underscores the current of
loss and sorrow running throughout the
novel: Everyone is in their own protected,

D
ERRY, N.H. FromHighway 28, the NewHamp-
shire farm once owned by poet Robert Frost may
seem unchanged from a century ago. Yet the pictur-
esque NewEngland white barn and farmhouse recently
underwent thousands of dollars inrenovationincluding
a new roof, foundation work and other upgrades.
And for the first time in dec-
ades the Robert Frost Farm
which sits on 30 acres in Derry,
N.H., about 10 miles north of the
Massachusetts border now
closely resembles the place Frost
left as he embarked on a life as a
full-time poet, officials at the his-
toric site say.
This year marks the 100th an-
niversary of when Frost sold the
poultry farm for $1,100 to help
pay for a three-year adventure in
England where he would begin
obtaining recognition in the
world of letters.
After walking away from the
farm, Frost won four Pulitzer
Prizes for poetry, read at the in-
auguration of President John F.
Kennedy and received a number
of honorary degrees and awards.
But Frost scholars and enthu-
siasts say the poet never forgot
those years in Derry. Thats be-
cause the Derry years were some
of the happiest of his life, and the
farm and its New England
grounds were the source of inspi-
ration for some of his most fa-
mous poems.
This is where he spent the
most time with his family and
had the happiest of memories,
said Justine Golden, a tour
guide. After he left here, it was
never the same. His life was fil-
led with tragedy.
New Hampshire officials hope
the restored house along with
newly placed markers around
the Hyla Brook Nature Poetry
Trail, or the area that surrounds
the farm, will give visitors a
sense of how the environment
played a role in some of Frosts
more memorable works. The
New Hampshire Division of
Parks and Recreation recently
placed markers at the spots
scholars believed inspired Frost
to later write the poems Noth-
ing Gold Can Stay, Mending
Wall and Stopping by Woods
on a Snowy Evening, among
others.
Derry was a place where he
grew as a poet, said Mark
Schorr, executive director of the
Robert Frost Foundation, based
in nearby Lawrence, Mass. The
farm turned out to be exactly
what Robert Frost needed. It
gave him time to dream.
Frost moved to Derry in 1900
after his grandfather agreed to
buy the farmfor himon one con-
dition Frost and his family
stay there for at least 10 years be-
fore Frost could own it. Frost
worked as a poultry farmer for
five years, before turning to
teaching as an English instruc-
tor at nearby Pinkerton Acade-
my.
In between his duties as a
farmer, Frost walked the land
and wrote constantly. He and his
wife, Elinor, homeschooledtheir
children, and Frost began to use
the landscape in his work.
Upon leaving the farm, Frost
won acclaim for his poetry but
his wife died of breast cancer in
1937, his son Carol committed
suicide, daughter Marjorie died
after childbirth, and daughter Ir-
ma was later committed to a
mental hospital. The poet also
battled bouts of depression.
Frost died in 1963.
To re-create his happy life at
the farm, the New Hampshires
Division of Parks and Recre-
ation, whichpurchasedthe prop-
erty shortly after Frost died, re-
stored furniture and purchased
period pieces around the home
under the advisement of his late
daughter, Lesley Frost Ballan-
tine. For example, visitors to the
farmwill see antique books Frost
readas a childanda chair next to
the kitchen window where Frost
wrote.
Some items, officials say, were
definitely used by Frost, includ-
ing the pair of wooden toilets
near the entrance. Of all the
things in this house, Golden
said, we are sure the great man
sat here.
Throughout the summer, the
farm will host a number of poet
readings and lectures on Frost.
The farmcloses for the season to
visitors Oct. 11.
Since the time Frost and his
family lived at the farm, much
has changed in the area. Strip
malls and stores cater to dis-
count-minded Massachusetts
shoppers lured to New Hamp-
shire because theres no sales
tax. To the south in Lawrence,
Mass., where Frost and his wife
graduated high school as co-val-
edictorians, sits a majority-Lati-
no city where the old mills have
closed and residents struggle
with basic adult literacy.
Still, walking around the farm,
even today, gives visitors the
same sense of creative seclusion
that Frost experienced, Golden
said. That hasnt changed, she
said.
Theres something about this
farm that pulls you in, Golden
said. Thats probably why Frost
always remembered it.
