OUR TEAM
I had mixed
emotions
when I
learned last
week from our
intern Matt
Morgis that
Lackawanna College President
Ray Angeli was leaving his
position effective next year.
The tip came after Morgis
coverage of the colleges first
forensics camp for middle
school students while I was on
vacation with my family.
At least I know Ive trained
the interns to pick up news tips
well in my absence.
Its odd to write this column
because if it werent for Ray, I
might not be in this position.
Before my father passed away
unexpectedly in1997, he served
as Lackawannas director of
financial aid beginning in1992.
I recall many trips to the
South Scranton building that
used to account for the entire
campus to watch the Falcons
basketball team play. Later, wed
travel to the former Scranton
Central High School where my
father and I would climb planks
of plywood where the steps
would be put into place as con-
struction crews completed
renovations.
After Dad died, Ray extended
a very generous gift to my fam-
ily that not many know of.
When I was ready for college,
my tuition at Lackawanna
would be paid for as a thank you
for the work Dad had done as
he helped to secure funds for
the students who wanted to
better themselves but didnt
have the means to do so on
their own.
After a brief stint at Keystone
College, I changed my course of
study to communications and
landed in downtown Scranton
at the building that once
seemed so immense when I was
11 years old.
Rays gift brought me to
Lackawanna, and Im thankful it
did.
It was at the college that I
gained incredible opportunities.
I took on a leadership role at the
student newspaper and in-
terviewed Hillary Clinton in
2004 during her event support-
ing John Kerrys candidacy for
president.
Ill never forget asking if shed
run in 2008 if Kerry failed. She
told me it was a pretty preposte-
rous proposition.
Four years later, she was
strolling through the streets of
Scranton during the St. Pa-
tricks Day Parade that doubled
as a campaign event. Funny
how things change.
It was during that time that I
was truly bitten by the journal-
ism bug. While Ray didnt get
me the interview, I always felt I
owed it to him a little bit.
Board of Trustees Chair Do-
minick DeNaples got it right
when he said Ray will be tough
to replace. The college under-
went extensive growth under
his 17 years of leadership and
dropped the cumbersome Ju-
nior from its name along the
way.
Its clear now that there was
nothing pint-sized about the
changes that Ray and the board
would execute. The college and
my fellow alumni were lucky to
have him.
Its my hope that the search
committee finds someone equal
to Ray to lead the citys true
community college.
It will be hard to find some-
one better or more generous.
Lackawanna lucky to have Angeli this long

TYLER MILES, a Go Lackawanna
intern, contributed to this report.
Residents of northeastern Pennsyl-
vania nearly broke records for elec-
tricity use as they dealt with a heat
wave that sat over the region Wednes-
day, according toofficials at PPLElec-
tric Utilities.
As temperatures continued to their
estimated highest on Friday, PPL
Spokesman Kurt Blumenau said that
electric use on Thursday, July 21,
nearly broke a record set in August
2006.
We were on course to break the
peak demand record, Blumenau
said.
Although the record is still intact,
electricity was still inhighdemandon
Thursday. Residents consumed the
most energy since the record break-
ing date almost five years ago, accord-
ing to Blumenau.
PPLtakes precautions on days with
high stress on electrical use by mon-
itoring peak demands, which are es-
sentially a snapshot of the point in a
day when people are using the most
power.
We have systemoperators who are
constantly monitoringthe loadonthe
different circuits of our system. If it
looks like one circuit is becoming too
heavily loaded, they can move some
of the power and route it a different
way to get where its going, said Blu-
menau. By doing that diligently in
times like this were able to prevent
any kind of overload.
Right nowwe havent seenany sig-
nificant issues or outages on our pow-
er delivery systems, he continued.
We also dont anticipate problems
with either power supply or handling
the load on our system, Blumenau
said.
Peak demand is traditional be-
tween5and7p.m., hesaid. Most busi-
nesses are shutting down, but many
residents are returning home to turn
on lights and various appliances.
Blemenau predicted another day
full of high demand for electricity on
Friday. Numbers were not available at
press time.

SCRANTON Lackawanna County
Commissionersheldahearingonthecoun-
tysfiscal challengesonThursdaymorning,
during which they announced the forma-
tionof anadvisoryboardtoaidtheminsolv-
ing future problems, including an estimat-
ed$5.89millionrevenueshortfall this year.
When Commissioners Mike Washo and
Corey OBrien took office as majority com-
missioners, theyfaceda$12.87millionbud-
get deficit in 2009, which they believe was
caused, in part, by the mismanagement of
formercommissionersRobert Cordaroand
A.J. Munchak.
Levels of historical debt were reached
from 2002 to 2007, and the county also
faced a $15.3 million debt service spike in
2008, a$35millionauctionratemarket col-
lapse, and $350,000 in periodic payments
onfiveSWAPtransactions.
It reached a point where people who
were creating the debt became so arrogant
that theyopeneda public buildingthat you
own on an invitation-basis only, and you
weresupposedtowearatuxedotogetthere
a buildingyouown, the airport. That was
theheight of thearrogance, andnowthis is
whatweredealingwithtoday,Washosaid,
holdinguptheexpensiveinvitations.
Making what they deemed difficult but
necessary decisions, the sitting commis-
sioners reduced expenditures by $18.6 mil-
lion; reduced the county workforce by 32
percent; terminated constant maturity
SWAPs, which resulted in $1.1 million in
one-time revenue; and sold the Lackawan-
na County HealthCare Center for $5.1mil-
lion. This allowed the county to not only
avoida33percenttaxincrease, butsubstan-
tiallyreducedthecountysbudgetgoingfor-

Steve Barcoski, the countys deputy di-
rector of Revenue & Finance, said at the
hearing that in his 34-year career, he had
never seen such a dramatic reduction in
costs, but agreed that it was necessary to
keepthecountyafloat.

comes in, occasionally there will be some
cuts, maybe one to two percent in staff, if
that, but never a reduction in force that to-

SCRANTON After a leng-
thydebate, CityCouncil passed
emergency legislation on Tues-
day that will allow the Mall at
Steamtown to delay its loan re-
payments to the city for anoth-
er two years.
With a 4-1 vote, council
amended the 2003 Section 108
loan agreement between the
city and Steamtown Mall Part-
ners, LP, for the refinancing of
the Lackawanna Avenue Mall
Project by extending the agree-
ment until 2013.
According to the legislation,
Steamtown Mall Partners are
in the process of restructuring
their loan with their primary
lender, who has required them
to defer all payments on sec-
ondary debt, including the Sec-
tion 108 loan. As a condition of
the interest rate reduction,
Steamtown Mall Partners
would be prohibited from mak-
ing payments on junior indeb-
tedness until the primary loan
matures on July 13, 2013.
Council President Janet
Evans said that Steamtown
Mall Partners is currently inde-
fault on its primary loan and
has renegotiated its loan with
its primary lender, which holds
a $37 million first lien on the
mall. The final payment by
Steamtown Mall Partners will
now be due to the citys Office
of Economic and Community
Development on or before July
20, 2013.
James Walsh, the malls gen-
eral manager, and Steamtown
Mall Partners Attorney Eugene
Hickey appearedbefore council
during a public caucus held in
November of last year to dis-
cuss the issue. While the plan
was approved by U.S. Depart-
ment of HousingandUrbanDe-
velopment in December, Evans
said that city administration
just sent thelegislationtocoun-
cil on July 5 for approval. It was
kept off the July12 agenda until
Hickey answeredsome of coun-
cils remaining questions.
As it was required to be ap-
proved by July 19, council held
their first and final reading of
the agreement on Tuesday.
If the city fails to enter into
this modification/extension of
a loan agreement, the city will
be required to apply (Commu-
nity Development Block
Grant) funds to the payment
duethereby drastically de-
priving the city of financial re-
sources, Evans explained, add-
ing that cuts had already been
made to these funds.
The city would likely never
recoup its money and the city
must use its CDBG money
starting immediately to repay
those Section 108 loans.
Council Vice President Pat
Rogan cast the lone dissenting
vote, labeling the move as a
bailout.
I do not believe its govern-
ments job to bail out business-
es who failedThe only winner
bypassingthis legislationis the
primary lender, Rogan said.
Evans and council solicitor
BoydHughes disagreed, saying
that the legislation was not a
bailout, as the citywouldnot be
pickinguppayments or loaning
any additional money.
It is merely a postponement
of this payment, Hughes said.
Councilman Frank Joyce
called it more of a forbea-
rance than a bailout.
I shouldnt use the termbai-
lout. I should use the term
stay of execution, I guess, Ro-
gan responded.
Evans said that while the fu-
ture of the Steamtown Mall
may seem grim, she felt that
council should at least attempt
to give its owners more time to
turn the downtown shopping
center around.
There will be a loss of hun-
dreds of jobs, numerous story
closings, and an anchor of the
downtown could be empty by
years end. With its unemploy-
ment figures higher than the
state average, Scranton cannot
afford to place hundreds of peo-
ple into the unemployment
lines. Further, our citystands to
lose tax revenues if the Steam-
town Mall closes.

CLARKS SUMMIT- Abing-
ton Heights Superintendent
Michael Mahon, Ph.D. ex-
plained during the school
boards monthly meeting on
July 20 that recent state re-
ports that question the possi-
bility of cheating within the
district during the 2009 Penn-
sylvania System of School As-
sessment tests could simply
be the result of a poor per-
formance in 2008.
Abington Heights was one
of several regional schools
who were flagged in a 2009
study that used statistical
analysis to uncover possible
cheating on state standar-
dized tests. While the report
contends thedatacanindicate
where cheating may have
occurred, it repeatedly stress-
es the analysis is not proof of
cheating.
Mahon said he learned of
the report, dubbed the Data
Forensics Technical Report a
study done by the Data Recog-
nition Corporation, a Minne-
sota-based company that has
done numerous technical re-
ports over the years analyz-
ing the state test, on Wednes-
day, July 13.
After receiving additional
information on July 15, the
district learnedwhytheywere
flagged for cheating.
In this report there are 26
different categories in which
youcanbe flagged. The report
does a statistical analysis
based on comparisons be-
tween student grade level per-
formance and statewide per-
formance. Essentially these
categories can be broken
down into two groups, era-
sures and change in scores,
said Mahon.
Mahon explained that in re-
gards to erasures the group
looked at how many answers
wereerasedandchangedfrom
wrong to right. Each districts
average number of answers
changed from wrong to right
was compared to the states
average. If the districts aver-
age was statistically higher
than the state average, they
were flagged.
The data from 2008 was
compared to 2009, and dis-
tricts were also flagged if test
scores in one particular year
rose greater than would be
predicted.
Abington Heights received
no flags for erasures, but read-
ing scores in 11th grade rose
from68 percent proficiency in
2008 to 85 percent in 2009.
The district was flagged for a
change in scale score from
2008 to 2009 in reading, a
change in advanced proficien-
cy percentages from 2008 to
2009 in reading and a differ-
ence between the reading and
math scores.
It happened that 2008 was
the base year that they chose
to compare the next years
scores to, so what they said
was this district went from 68
to 85. Therefore, they must
have cheated, said Mahon.
The report didnt take into
account the fact that the 68
percent proficient the district
earned in 2008 was unusually
low, as AbingtonHeights aver-
aged a combined score of 81.4
percent proficient on the test
during the 2006, 2007, 2009,
2010 and 2011 school years.
The report also fails to ac-
knowledge that these scores
were earned by two different
populations of students.
Mahon went on to say that
the district did not want to be
dismissive of this report, and
they were willing to take stern
action if necessary, but he
feels it is unlikely that cheat-
ing occurred.
I can tell you after looking
at this data that I am com-
pletely confident that the re-
port reveals absolutely no in-
appropriate behavior on the
part of the staff or the stu-
dents, said Mahon.
The school board will meet
againfor its monthlyworkses-
sion on Wednesday, Aug. 3.

SCRANTON - A 49-year-old
Scranton man who recently lost
his job at PNC Bank now faces
criminal charges after allegedly
withdrawing $68,3000 from his
parents bank account to pay off
gambling debts.
George Kinback, of Summit
Pointe, Scranton, faces two
counts each of theft and forgery,
and one count of receiving sto-
len property after a three month
long investigation.
According the affidavit:
In late June, PNC fraud inves-
tigator Terri Hoover reported to
city police that Kinback, who
was employedat theWest Scran-
ton branch on South Main Ave-
nue, was suspected of making
unauthorized withdrawals from
the account of George and Phyl-
lis Kinback.
Karen Lucas, George Kin-
backs sister and the power of at-
torney for Mr. and Mrs. Kin-
back, originally requested infor-
mation when their parents were
moved into a nursing home. Po-
lice claimthat Kinback supplied
his sister withfalse bankrecords
stating that the account had a
balance of around $64,000 when
it actually had $19,000.
Money was also missing from
Kinbacks cash drawer as well.
Kinback, who was a head teller
at PNC, was placed on adminis-
trative leave.
After several interviews with
Secret Service agents, Kinback
allegedly told police he owed
$37,000 to loan sharks. He
would take money fromhis cash
drawer and pay the gambling

duct after an investigation.
According to the affidavit:
Jolene Knight, a witness inside
the store claimed she was waiting
in line at the cash register when
Kupetsky stood directly on her
left side, exposed his penis and be-
gan masturbating in front of her.

petsky walked out of the store and
into a rented U-Haul truck outside.
The incident was captured on in-
house video surveillance.
Detectives identified the man
through U-Haul rental records. Ku-

when he unzipped his pants prior
to using the restroom.

arresting officer. Kupetsky was ar-
raigned on July19, and released on
$20,000 unsecured bail. A prelimi-

SCRANTON Evidence is
clear that the Be Part of the

ing, although it is still rela-
tively in its infancy.
During an event Tuesday
to discuss magisterial dis-
trict judge candidate Joanne
Corbetts donation of ad
space in South Scranton to-

CRANTON The citys
police department has re-
ceived two donations
aimed at spreading the word
about the public-private partner-
shippursuedbyChief DanDuffy
since taking office last year.
Duffy was joined by magist-
erial district judge candidate
Joanne Corbett on Tuesday to
discuss her donation of adver-
tising space on the 200 block of
Pittston Avenue in South
Scranton for the Be Part of the
Solution campaign.
I was very appreciative of it be-
cause I want to get that message
out, especially inSouthSide, Duf-
fy said. I want to make sure every
part of the city gets the same atten-
tion, andthis is anawesomewayto
break the ice in South Scranton.
Corbett said she paid approxi-
mately $1,500 for the ad space on
the corner of Hickory Street and
Pittston Avenue from May to No-
vember. The sign promoting the
police departments campaign
went up on July 1 and will remain
through the end of August, she
said.
In addition, she is donating
close to$400 for the purchase of 10
new metal crime watch signs that
include information on how to
submit tips on alleged criminal ac-
tivity, where to find information
about crime in your neighborhood
through www.crimereports.com,
and more.
Fifty metal signs have already
been distributed to neighborhood
groups and will begin appearing
around the city in the near future,
according to Duffy. The additional
signs purchased through Corbetts
donation will be placed in South
Scranton, East Mountain and Mi-
nooka, where she is also cam-
paigning to become a district ma-
gistrate.
The Be Part of the Solution
campaign is excellent. Its making
a big difference in the community,
and it needs to be publicized. I
thought this would be a great way

MARRIAGES
SCRANTON Two members of
the Scranton Police Department
and one Scranton fire fighter were
recognized Thursday for going
above and beyond the call of duty
in this month, saving the lives of
several citizens.
Scranton Police Chief Dan Duffy
offered proclamations on behalf of
Mayor Chris Doherty and ceremo-
nial lapel pins donated by a city
business owner who wished to re-
main anonymous to Sgt. Pat Gerri-
ty, Ptlm. William OBrien and fire
fighter Dave Dolphin for their he-
roic efforts.
Gerrity responded to call of un-
responsive person at Bank Towers
on July 15.
I was headed to my office at
City Hall. I heard the call come in,
and I was two blocks away, Gerri-
ty said.
He administered CPR for several
minutes until emergency medical
technicians arrived to take the
man to Mercy Hospital for treat-
ment. As of Thursday, nurses told
Gerrity the patient was doing well.
While he has performed CPR on
individuals several times in his ca-
reer, he said Friday marked the
first occasion where the victim
pulled through.
Duffy thanked Gerrity for re-
maining proactive. The sergeant
said he tries to conduct patrols for
several hours each day after his ad-
ministrative duties are complete.
I cant sit back. Ive got to be out
there, he said.
OBrien was responsible for
alerting four residents to a fire at a
home at 1208 Luzerne St., Scran-
ton, on July 16. After clearing a
call, OBrien could smell smoke
while stopped at the intersection
of 12th Avenue and Luzerne Street.
He saw flames and black smoke
coming from the back half of the
second floor of the home.
He opened a first floor door and
worked to remove an elderly wom-
an and middle-aged man from the
residence. The male on the first
floor informed OBrien of a father
and son living on the second floor.
He climbed a smoke-filled, out-
door stairway and kicked open the
door, alerting the father of the fire
on the second floor and also re-
moving them from the house.
OBrien thanked the fire depart-
ment for their speedy response,
which he said helped save the Lu-
zerne Street home.
My hats off to them, he said.
Scranton Fire Department As-
sistant Chief Al Lucas described
Dolphins July 18 rescue.
Because of your compassion for
the public you serve, you were able
to calm a potential suicide victim
back to his safety, Lucas said.
The incident was above Dol-
phins training, but not above his
character, Lucas added.
The gentleman recognized
Dave from the firehouse one day
when he drove by, and Dave had a
rapport with the gentleman, he
said. Just with his compassion for
fellow humans, he did convince
this man to come back off the
ledge.
Men recognized for life saving efforts

Gerrity for going above the call of duty to save lives in the last several days.

n the mid 1800s, North-
eastern Pennsylvania had
just begun to prosper from
the development of major in-
dustries like coal mining, rail-
roading and textile manufac-
turing. As these industries
grew, so too did the influx of
European Immigrants to the
area.
Much has been written about
the influx of different groups
who came here: first, the
Welsh and Irish, then the Ger-
man and Eastern Europeans
followed closely by the Ital-
ians.
Among the Eastern Europeans
who settled in the region were the
Lithuanians, who first arrived in
Northeastern Pennsylvania in the
1860s. They settled mainly in Prov-
idence (North Scranton), Hyde Park
(West Scranton), Pittston, Eynon,
and Forest City.
Revolution of the Heart through
Song is the theme of the Fourth
Lithuanian Heritage Day to be held
at the Anthracite Heritage Museum,
McDade Park, Scranton Pennsylva-
nia, on Sunday, July 31, 2011, at 1
p.m. This special recognition of the
importance of song to the Lithua-
nian people will feature three stir-
ring presentations.
A special showing of the movie
The Singing Revolution by James
Tusty and Maureen Castle Tusty
will begin the days events at 1 p.m.
The documentary chronicles the
independence movement of the
Singing Revolution as it began and
grew in Estonia. The Singing Revo-
lution also took root in Latvia and
Lithuania. In the geographical cen-
ter of Europe on August 23rd, 1989,
the three Baltic nations stood to-
gether arm in arm in a human
chain that spanned their three
states and sang. Like one fragile
strand of thread, they rewove the
fabric of their nations with song.
That day marked the 50th anni-
versary of the Molotov-Ribbentrop
Pact between the Soviet Union and
Nazi Germany. The pact that tore
the fabric of the Baltic States. The
steadfastness of a people using only
their voices to change their world
is one of the most hopeful experi-
ences one can witness.
In 2003, Lithuania and her sister
nations, Latvia and Estonia had
their long standing tradition of
Song and Dance Festivals pro-
claimed by UNESCO as masterpiec-
es of the Oral and Intangible Heri-
tage of Humanity. The Intangible
Heritage of Humanity will eventu-
ally teach and lead us all, when we
are ready.
The inclusion of the film The
Singing Revolution for the Anthra-
cite Heritage Museums 4th Lithua-
nian Heritage Day 2011 is a tribute
to the history of the Baltic nations
and their struggle for independ-
ence. It coincides with the 20th
anniversary of that recognition by
the world and the fall of the Iron
Curtain.
At 3 p.m. a choral tribute to
American Lithuanian choral direc-
tor Bronis Voveris will be conduct-
ed. Voveris, from northeastern
Pennsylvania, exemplified in every
aspect of his being the value of
song.
Voveris was always ready. Un-
fortunately, he did not live to see
Lithuania declare its independence
from the Soviet Union in 1990. This
July 31, nearly a quarter century
after his death in 1989, this hum-
ble, unassuming choir director is
inspiring some former members of
his choir at Kings College, The
Men in Red, to reassemble and
present, most appropriately - a sing-
ing tribute.
Voveris would have rejoiced at
the courage of Lithuania being the
first Soviet republic to declare its
independence in 1990. The United
States and the Soviet Union official-
ly recognized that independence in
September of 1991. Former choir
members of The Men in Red, Rob-
ert Wilson and James Katchko, a
performing arts chairman, are the
carriers of the torch for the tribute.
The days events will conclude at
4 p.m., with a youthful choral pre-
sentation by the Endless Mountain
Childrens Choir under the direction
of the American Polish Lithuanian
choral director Dr. Christine Sezer.
The museum will close at 5 p.m.
The power of song sustained the
Baltic nations, sustained Voveris
and Katchko, and also sustains Sez-
er. She, too, has devoted her life to
performance and song. The final
tribute of the days program will,
most appropriately, feature her
young childrens choir carrying the
Baltic, Lithuanian tradition forward
through the voices of children of all
ethnicities singing songs of hope
for a revolution of the heart.
The Anthracite Heritage Museum
takes special pride in presenting
this program for it was here in
northeastern Pennsylvania at the
beginning of the 20th century that
the early struggle for Lithuanian
independence had original deep
roots.
It was here in the United States,
in northeastern Pennsylvania, that a
number of its writers and leaders
first found and experienced the
freedom to write, publish, and be-
gin a revolution of the worlds heart
through song.
Songs celebrate Lithuanian heritage

Support for the solution
campaign and Duffy has con-
tinued to grow over the last
several months including from
an unknown man who stopped
at the corner of Hickory and
Pittston Tuesday morning to
speak to the chief.
Duffy, youre the best, the
manshoutedout of his car win-
dow. We love you in this city,
trust me.
The campaign sends a mess-
age tolawabidingcitizens that
the police department sup-
ports their involvement in
helping to solve crimes and
another message to criminals
that theres more than 150
trainedofficers watchingover
the city, Duffy said.
I dont know everything
just because Im the police
chief. Ive got to get the infor-
mation from the public, he
said.
SOLUTION
Citizens who want to Be Part
of the Solution can call
Chief Dan Duffys office at
(570) 558-8301 for informa-
tion on existing neighbor-
hood groups or, if necessary,
on how to start their own.
GET INVOLVED
pect.
That came right from our
relationship with the pub-
lic, he said. It made my
hair stand up when it hap-
pened because it was so fit-
ting that this person was in-
volved with being part of
the solution, and that
showed that.
The suspect, Evans Sa-
muel Santos-Diaz, 21, of
Stafford Avenue, Scranton,
was located after a citizen
informant told police that
he was at 1408 Prospect
Ave., Scranton, at about 6:20
p.m. on July 15. Police set
up surveillance on the
home, were granted access
inside by a woman who an-
swered the door and located
the suspect in the stairway
of the third floor of the
building.
Santos-Diaz was charged
with criminal conspiracy
and receiving stolen proper-
ty, and he allegedly con-
fessed to his role in the rob-
beries under questioning by
Detective Michael Schultz,
according to Duffy.
The arrest was the second
made related to the original
June 27 incident.
Juan Pablo Matias, 21, of
Cedar Avenue, Scranton,
was charged with robbery,
theft by unlawful taking, re-
ceiving stolen property,
criminal conspiracy, simple
assault, reckless endanger-
ment and disorderly conduct
after he was apprehended
during a second delivery to
the Valley View apartment
complex on July 13. Matias
allegedly told police he com-
mitted the robberies to feed
a cocaine and marijuana ad-
diction.
Matias was arraigned July
13 and held for $25,000 bail.
A preliminary hearing set
for July 20 was continued to
July 27, according to court
records.
Santos-Diaz was arraigned
July 16 and held for $50,000
bail. A preliminary hearing
set for July 20 was also con-
tinued to July 27.

northeastern and north central

While the building located at
525 Pine St., Scranton, marks
another significant step for-
ward in the history of the areas
first medical college, Nora said
its merely a means to an end
towards improving the health
of the area and serving the
community by producing high-
ly skilled medical profession-
als.
The facility achieves that
goal by combining hands-on
lessons with a wealth of tech-
nological resources that ad-
dress the fast-paced society cur-
rent students live in.
What we really try to do is
have an innovative, active curri-
culum where students are
learning by doing rather than
sitting and listening to lec-
tures, Maurice Clifton, M.D.,
senior associate dean for aca-
demic affairs, said.
In some settings, profession-
als are trained to portray symp-
toms ranging from pregnancy
to heart attacks while students
are expected to complete an ac-
curate diagnosis. Theyre also
taught to build good procedur-
al habits like building a rapport
with patients.
Inside the simulation center,
students are offered a variety of
new technologies to train for
real-life situations. Students al-
so learn in controlled environ-
ments with computer scripted
scenarios that are chosen by
professors.
On Wednesday, second-year
students Megan Gooch of Ey-
non, Dan Benyo of Drums, Ke-
vin Baker of Pittsburgh, and
Mike Farrell of Pomfret, Md.,
successfully revived a dummy
patient under cardiac arrest in
a simulation run by specialist
Anthony Pellegrino.
Gooch said the simulations
help students learn to develop
a plan of action to work within
a team of healthcare profession-
als to best aid a patient.
The school is also focused on
three forms of research edu-
cation-, community-, and sci-
ence-based - Associate Dean for
Research and Economic Devel-
opment Dan Flynn, Ph.D., ex-
plained.
Our research programs are
focused on diseases that are rel-
evant to northeastern Pennsyl-
vania, Flynn said, including
chronic diseases related to ag-
ing and a variety of cancers.
The East and West wings of
the building, dedicated respec-
tively to academics and re-
search, are joined by a second
floor caf where school leaders
believe students will gather not
only to eat but to share ideas
and, hopefully, solve problems
in their field through collabora-
tion.
Wayne I. Thompson, associ-
ate dean for technology, dem-
onstrated the video conferenc-
ing capabilities that will allow
students to participate in a sin-
gle lecture from campuses in
Scranton, Wilkes-Barre or Wil-
liamsport. The technology is
currently being used for a se-
ries of didactic lectures held
each Friday.
Many lectures are also re-
corded, and all students are
equipped with laptops to re-
trieve materials from specific
classes or from the schools li-
brary containing predominant-
ly digital resources.
The idea is that wherever
they are at whatever time of
the day, theyll have access to
the resources they need,
Thompson said.
Officials have already built in
a section of so-called shelf
space for future expansion
that cost the college $2 million,
according to Brian Campbell,
chief institutional advancement
officer. There are currently 130
students enrolled at TCMC.

If you
are new
to cou-
poning
and sav-
ing money in stores,
then this will definitely
shock you. Two online
rebate sites, Ebates and
ShopAtHome, can help
you earn cash back
with every online pur-
chase.
Last year when I first
started reading coupon
blogs, I had no idea
that you can get re-
bates when making
purchases online.
When you sign up for
an account at either
site, you will receive a
$5 bonus once you
spend $20 online with-
in 60 days of signing up
for the services.
So, how do you use
the sites?
After signing up, you will
be able to search for the
store you are looking to
shop at, such as Gap,
Crocs, Old Navy, and so on.
There are thousands of
stores that you can search
for and coupon codes as
well. Each store offers a
different amount of cash
back, and some even offer
double rewards on certain
days with a coupon code.
For example, one of my
favorite sites is Snapfish.
They are offering a coupon
code for buy one, get one
free photo book using the
code SWAV and 8 percent
cash back. So, its like a
double savings.
Every three months, you
will receive a check in the
mail with all your rebates.
You wont receive your first
check until your account
reaches $20.
Theres no reason to
choose between Ebates and
ShopAtHome. I honestly
use both. I usually select
the site that offers the
higher percentage.
Both services are free to
sign up for, plus you get
money back for shopping
that you are already doing.
These sites are great for
back to school purchases
because they offer double
cash back on certain
stores.
Once you sign up for the
services, you will receive
emails with store deals
offering coupon codes and
cash back up to 25 percent
cash back.
Ebates usually offers a $5
cash back sign up bonus
when you register a new
account, but they are of-
fering a great gift card deal
until Tuesday.
You can choose to get a
Barnes & Nobles, Target,
Home Depot, or Maga-
zines.com $10 gift card
instead of the $5 cash, or
you can choose the $5 cash
through Ebates. You will
want to sign up soon be-
cause this is a limited time
offer that ends July 26.

Heavy metal icons Motley Crue are
known worldwide for embracing the
wildest of rock n roll lifestyles, but
all that founding guitarist Mick Mars
wants to be remembered for is his
diehard dedication to his craft.
The infamous Los Angeles rockers
will be stopping at the Toyota Pavil-
ion at Montage Mountain on Sunday,
July 31, with fellow80s glamact Poi-
son and special guests the New York
Dolls.
As early as age of 3, Robert Alan
Deal knew what he would be doing
with the rest of his life. After playing
in various small bands throughout
the 70s, he decided to dye his hair
black and change his name to Mick
Mars, advertising himself in a local
paper as a loud, rude, and aggres-
sive guitar player.
Bassist Nikki Sixx and drummer
Tommy Lee immediately hired him
as singer Vince Neil rounded out the
group that would soon be known as
Motley Crue, a name that Mars also
coined.
I was bored with my other life. I
dont knowChange is good, Mars
said. But Im still me.
Clad in heavy make-up and a col-
orful wardrobe, the band burst onto
the scene in1981 with a rebellious at-
titude that quickly gained them both
media attention and animosity from
concerned parents and political lead-
ers. Their lives of sex, drugs, and
rock n rock may have thrust themin-
to the spotlight, but Mars saidhis pri-
mary concern was always the music.
I really do focus on music. When I
was 3 years old and I decided that I
was going to be a musician, a guitar
player thats the same way I think
today. I dont care what kindof conse-
quences might come or get in my
wayThis is what I chose to do and
Im not going to let anybody or any-
one or anything mess it up for me. I
just love music. Thats all I want to
do, Mars said.
I have to admit that some of the
guys like that media attention. I
dont. Im about the music. I skip the
(expletive).
Now age 60, Mars also confessed
that he thought at least one member
of the band would be dead by now,
but he feels that maybe a few hard
lessons were learned to bring them
to this point in the careers.
I think I would say that were
probably a bit more educated after a
couple of overdoses. Youknowwhat I
mean? Its like, Oh, I dont want to do
that again. I think everybody goes
through that, really.
While the band was often trashed
in reviews when they started, Motley
Crue has since gained respect and its
own place in the music industry,
which the ax man thanks his fans for.
Our fans grew up and took
overIts pretty funny, you have to
admit. I think that any newband that
comes out gets rejected unless youre
very, very poppy and commercial.
Anything new and different or what-
ever you want to call it has to get re-
spect. You have to earn it, I guess,
paying your dues, he explained.
Notice every time a new band
comes out its the devils music.
Imagine if there was no change and
we were still playing Hound Dog by
Big Mama Thornton or Elvis. I guess
that people are accustomed to gradu-
al change, but radical change? No.
As the songwriter behind some of
the bands more recognizable riffs,
Mars credits his unique style to a
wide variety of influences, including
Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Jimi Hen-
drix, Alvin Lee, and Johnny Winter,
and playing in many cover bands
early inhis career that allowedhimto
combine and learn parts from many
different types of musicians.

At this point in the sum-
mer, movie critics get
particularly tired of re-
viewing blockbusters, so
inevitably, theyre going
to be a bit harsher than they normally
would be. Captain America: The First
Avenger is receiving mostly positive
reviews, so I think that says a lot about
how enjoyable this superhero flick truly
is.
The real test is how longtime comic book
fans will take to this overdue big budget adap-
tation. It exceeded my expectations on several
levels, including how character driven the film
was, placing it a step above many other movies
of its kind.
With Captain America being one of my top
favorite heroes, I must admit that I wasnt
exactly thrilled when I first heard that Chris
Evans was cast as the star-spangled Avenger.
He looked like Steve Rogers, but I hadnt seen
him play anyone other than himself. He only
seemed able to play a dashing, young, wise-
cracking flirt in every movie he starred in.
That wasnt going to fly for Cap.
With over 70 years of history, the character
has had time to come a long way. Created in
1941 as World War II propaganda, audiences
got their first glimpse of our hero punching
Hitler square in the jaw on the cover of his
premier comic. When writer Stan Lee revived
the character in 1964, he immediately made
the man deeper and more complex.
Lee began exploring how and why he be-
came the man he became, forcing him to face
failure and the challenge of representing a new
generation of Americans that, up until now, he
hadnt been a part of. As the face of war and
politics changed, so did Cap.
The script writers understood the impor-
tance of this change as well, and thankfully,
Evans steps out of his comfort zone to deliver
the best performance of his career. Steves

I am a Network Specialist

After surgery (Multi-Lx Elite), I no longer needed

I feel my vision is as good as it was when I was 25.

Northeastern Pennsylvania
has its share of local flea mar-
kets, but the city of Scranton
hasnt seen an event quite like
WFTE-FMs Punk Rock Flea
Market. The inaugural event is
set for Saturday, July 30, from10
a.m. to 4 p.m. in radio stations
parking lot at 930 Meadow Ave-
nue.
While its namesake implies
that the merchandise may be re-
lated strictly to music, its ac-
tually more closely associated
with the do-it-yourself attitude
of the punk lifestyle. Over 20
vendors arebookedtosell crafts,
clothes, vintage items, CDs,
purses, jewelry, house wares,
crochet and knitted items,
homemade and handcrafted
goods, and more at the event.
Local bands Think Big!, Down
to Six, Down a Lifetime, and
Call Me Out will also perform
throughout the day.
Stephanie Ogozaly, music di-
rector of WFTE, was inspiredby
similar large-scale punk flea
markets heldinbigger cities like
Philadelphia and thought Scran-
ton, and subsequently the sta-
tion, would benefit from the
unique cultural event.
I was interested in that, so I
was doing some research online
and I saw that people were put-
ting them on all over the place
on a much smaller scale, so I
thought, Why cant Scranton
have that? I just started the ball
rolling and here we are, Ogoza-
ly explained.
We want to do a lot of com-
munity events and really be-
come involved with the commu-
nity. We want to be a presence
out thereI hope this will bring
in some people who maybe
havent heard of us yet.
Punk flea market fits radio station flavor
WHAT: Punk Rock Flea Market featuring performances by Think Big!,
Down to Six, Down a Lifetime, and Call Me Out
WHERE: WFTE Studio parking lot, 930 Meadow Ave., Scranton
WHEN: Saturday, July 30, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
COST: Free, vendor fee $10

Ogozaly is known in the ar-
ea as the filmmaker behind
The Metro, a documentary
that chronicled the final days
of popular Wilkes-Barre ven-
ue Cafe Metropolis. As
WFTEs music director, she
has been contacting bands
and labels to build up the sta-
tions library, organizing it,
and guiding their overall mu-
sical direction.
The independent, non-prof-
it station, found at 90.3 FMin
Lackawanna and Wayne
counties, has been relying
mostly on volunteers to run
their operation and has been
raising money since last year
to offer the area community-
oriented programming with
content not often covered by
mainstream outlets.
We mostly hear one-on-
one frompeople, saying, I lis-
ten to the station, Good job,
and stuff like that. Were on a
smaller scale right now, but
were building our way up.
Our original programming is
created locally, so were get-
ting there, Ogozaly said.
Currently at half its poten-
tial power, she said that at
least 70,000 people can tune
in to WFTE, but they hope to
eventually reach five counties
with more funding. The sta-
tion hosts concerts and occa-
sional poetry slam nights at
the Irish Wolf Pub in down-
town Scranton every Sunday
to offset their costs, and they
plan to hold movie nights and
concerts in the studio itself as
they continue to expand.
The Punk Rock Flea Mar-
ket seemed like another natu-
ral fit to benefit the progres-
sive station, and Ogozaly be-
lieves its distinctiveness will
be an added draw to the
event.
I think we should get a
good turnout. People are ex-
cited that were doing some-
thing a little bit different in
Scranton, she said. Weve
had a good amount of inter-
est, and the vendors are excit-
ed too. I know a lot of them
are eager for it to happen, and
hopefully, if this one goes
well, we can do another one.
FLEA MARKET
transformation from a 90-
pound weakling into a super
solider doesnt happen right
away, so were given plenty of
time to get to know him and
like him for being more than
just a guy who knocks around
Nazis.
He is deeply patriotic, but he
also follows his heart. While
current trends have made a lot
of protagonists dark, brooding
whiners, were instead treated
to a kind, compassionate hero
that you dont have to feel
guilty rooting for. Thats the
Cap I know.
The supporting characters
are just as enjoyable to watch.
Hayley Atwell plays Peggy
Carter, a strong love interest
that doesnt need saving every
five minutes, and Tommy Lee
Jones barks the orders as the
witty, no-nonsense Colonel
Chester Phillips, a character
who seemed to walk right out
of war classics like The Dirty
Dozen or Kellys Heroes.
Stanley Tucci has some great
scenes as Dr. Abraham Erskine,
who selects Rogers for his
super soldier experiment, but
it is the villains that steal the
show whenever possible.
Hugo Weaving is always a
memorable villain, as aptly
displayed in The Matrix
trilogy, so he was a natural fit
for the mostly dastardly Nazi of
them all, the Red Skull. While
hes not given enough screen
time to really delve further into
his evil motivations, he is given
a cowardly sidekick in Dr.
Arnim Zola, played by the
underrated Toby Jones.
The Red Skull runs HYDRA,
the Nazis occult science divi-
sion, and discovers a glowing
cube of power (the Cosmic
Cube, to comic fans) that leads
to all kinds of futuristic tech-
nology invading the 40s set-
ting. After they had spent so
much time establishing the
time period, I felt that this was
a bit distracting, and in reality,
it was probably a cheap ploy to
maintain younger audiences
attentions.
The special effects used to
shrink Evans down for the
opening were extremely well
done and put the Green Lan-
tern suit effects to shame. I
also hoped to see Cap and the
Skull share the screen a bit
more so their final showdown
would feel more personal.
Then again, how many reasons
do you need to fight a madman
hell-bent on mass genocide?
Watching Steve having to
prove himself as more than just
a cheesy symbol in tights more
than made up for this. He has
to earn the respect of his fellow
soldiers, and the movie cleverly
pokes fun at the characters
hokey origins in comics and
movie serials while still deliver-
ing enough serious action
sequences to carry the story.
If theres any major gripe I
wish to mention at all, it would
be the awful editing process
this movie must have went
through. As an effects man
from both Star Wars and
Indiana Jones, director Joe
Johnston definitely brought
some valuable experience into
this project, but he also
brought baggage like last years
The Wolfman remake, which
suffered greatly from the same
type of disjointed, haphazard
editing.
Luckily, Captain America
ends up flowing much better
than that atrocity overall, and
the Dr. Jones-like action in
many sequences made me set
that qualm aside. I now official-
ly forgive you for Jurassic Park
III, Joe.
After the films credits, a
short teaser trailer for The
Avengers plays to prepare
moviegoers for the next chap-
ter in the story. While I greatly
look forward to seeing the
Captain, Hulk, Thor, Iron Man,
Black Widow, and Hawkeye
join forces, I hope that they will
all be given at least a quarter of
the attention that our title
character was given in this
movie.
Sure, big action is inevitably
going to come from a big team,
but its what brings them to
this team, and what keeps
them there, thats going to hold
our attention.
At least mine, anyway.

riends With Benefits is really
like two people having sex
without any obligations: Ev-
erythings OK as long as you dont need any
emotional connection and just want the im-
mediate gratification of a few jokes about ro-
mantic comedy cliches.
Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis play two driven
young professionals who dont have time for all the
trappings of love and romance. They agree to be-
come sexual partners purely for the physical act.
Emotional baggage is to be left outside the door.
But it wouldnt be a romantic comedy if the plan
worked.
Director Will Gluck manages to generate enough
laughs by taking shots at romantic comedies to get
you through the night.
He pokes funat suchstandards as the wacky friend
and the never-ending series of misunderstandings
that lead to one big emotional moment where the
couple faces their real feelings.
Timberlake and Kunis have some chemistry and
are at their best whenthey are tradingsnappy banter.
A lot of that dialogue is delivered during sex scenes
and the contrast works for awhile.
The sex scenes go on way too long and eventually
just become a blur of flesh and funny.
Glucks comedy Easy A anassault on80s teen
angst movies had far more venom and, in turn,
was funnier.
He throws jabs at romantic comedies, but he never
seems willing to deliver the knockout punch. Thats
made clear through what is a very predictable end-
ing.
The director wanted to shatter gay stereotypes
with the character Tommy, played by Woody Harrel-
son. The problemis that Harrelson is so over-the-top
he becomes a cliche.
The filmwanders into some very good but mis-
placed moments with the parents of both part-
ners. Jenna Elfman, Richard Jenkins and Patricia
Clarksonturningreat dramatic performances that in
any other film would be a bonus.
Friends With Benefits does have something else
going for it. Any movie that makes fun of Katherine
Heigls growing list of bad romantic comedies is OK
in my book.

fter a year away, Sounds for Scoliosis has decid-
ed to hold its third annual event exclusively at
the bar where everything got started.
Heils Place, 1002 Wheeler Ave., Dunmore, hosted
the live music event in 2009, and will host it again this
year, Friday through Saturday, July 29 through 31.
During its first year, Sounds
for Scoliosis was held one
night in 2009 and featured
four bands.
Founder Lucia Peregrim ex-
panded the successful event
to inlcude 30 bands at nine
different venues in downtown
Scranton over three days last
year.
We wanted to take it back
to Heils again this
year because were in
the process of finding
a permanent home
for it, said Peregrim.
So, if all goes well
this year, like it did in
year one, Heils is go-
ing to be the perma-
nent home for it ev-
ery year.
This years event
will feature 35 bands,
including Skin and
Bones, Big Things,
Dual Diagnosis, 5
Ton Jack and Pop
Rox.
This year, and ev-
ery year, I want it to
be a little bit of every-
thing, said Pere-
grim.
In addition, magi-
cian Mike Jinx will
perform between
acts, and there will
be some time set aside for an
open mic.
This year, those in attend-
ance will have a chance to take
a piece of the weekend home
with them as 1,000 copies of
the Sound of Scoliosis CD are
available featuring songs pro-
vided by some of the bands.
Peregrim, a scoliosis pa-
tient since the age of 13, said
the event is also a way to raise
awareness on scoliosis.
I wanted to give back to the
communityby raising the
awareness of early detection
and raising awareness of sco-
liosis, because its not some-
thing you hear of every day,
said Peregrim.
The event will feature a Sco-
liosis Survey Series, with
speakers talking about their
experience with scoliosis on
Sunday from noon to six.
On Sunday, Dr.
Clayton Stitzel will
be on hand to speak
about early detection
and awareness, there
will be back screen-
ings from noon to 2
p.m., and there will
be reading material
available about sco-
liosis and the Penn-
sylvania Chapter of
the National Scolio-
sis Foundation.
The National Sco-
liosis Foundation
will receive the mon-
ey raised from ticket
sales, and the silent
auctions which will
be held each night of
the event.
Tickets are availa-
ble at the door.
The cost is $10 per
person per day, that
includes the price of
the CD; $20 per person for the
weekend, that includes the
price of the CD plus a hopper
pass for all three days to see
all the bands; or $30 per per-
son, that includes the CD, the
weekend pass and a t-shirt
while supplies last.
Sounds for Scoliosis begins
at 4 p.m. on Friday and Satur-
day, and at noon on Sunday.

the event, visit www.sound-

SCRANTON St. Jo-
sephs Summer Festival
will celebrate its 50th
anniversary next week-
end on the grounds of
Marywood University.
The festival is just such a
fun, wonderful get together
for the residents of St. Jo-
sephs, all of the volunteers,
and the surrounding com-
munity, said Judy Evans,
head of the festivals Public
Relations Committee.
Evans, who has been with
St. Josephs for the past six
years, has previously
chaired the auction that the
center holds during the fall.
Her company, Lee Electric
Supply, volunteers at the fes-
tival every year.
During the three-day fes-
tival, people can enjoy food,
games, donate tothe WNEP-
TV telethon and support
meteorologist Joe Snedek-
ers annual Go Joe bike
ride through the region.
The family-oriented event
will provide many outlets
for children to have fun with
including kiddie games and
a new basketball game this
year.
There are a milliondiffer-
ent kinds of booths, Evans
said. Its grown so much
and its a really good time,
especially for families.
With cuts in funding of all
types to non-profit organiza-
tions, the fundraiser is more
important than ever. The
summer festival is the main
fundraiser for St. Josephs
each year.
Were lucky as far as a
non-profit organization
goes. We really have some
great sponsors. This is going
to be our biggest summer
festival yet, said Evans.

CRANTON Team
Bark at the Park, who
will host their second
annual picnic event at
Scrantons Nay Aug Park on
Sunday, July 31, hope to
raise money and awareness
for Griffin Pond animal
shelter andthe Lackawanna
County American Red
Cross.
Last years Picnic in the
Parkwas the first event held
by co-chairs Krista Heusner
and Michelle Snyder.
The goal was to raise aware-
ness and money for animals that
need homes and the local adop-
tioncenter. Atotal of $3,600was
raisedand30dogs were adopted
because of the event.
This year we changed it up a
little. Not only are we helping
animals and donating proceeds
to Griffin Pond Shelter, we are
also donating to the Lackawan-
na County Red Cross, Heusner
said. Were helping both people
and animals.
The event is also being heldin
memory of Team Bark Member
Ross Ian Mackie who passed
away suddenly of an illness last
year weeks after the first event,
Snyder said.
Heusner, who owns a rabbit,
dog, and several fish, said the
picnic will have a variety of ven-
dors offering items like gourmet
dogtreats, whileothers will help
would-be animal lovers register
to adopt a dog.
The Scranton Police Depart-
ment will also showcase their
K-9 unit during the event. Chil-
drens games andpet portrait op-
portunities will also be availa-
ble.
Those that dont mind some
affection fromtheir canine com-
panions can line up for a kissing
booth, too.
Its for families, animal lovers
- its for everybody, Heusner
said.
Snyder and Heusner chose
Nay Aug Park as the location for
the second year in a row due to
its size and beauty.
Its just a very nice park.
There are a lot of things to do,
its beautiful and theres a lot of
room for us to set up, said
Heusner. We have over 90 ven-
dors.
The two co-chairs hope to
capitalize on last years success
by creating raising even more
money for both causes. The Red
Cross Bloodmobile will also be
at Nay Aug on July 31.
There is no admission cost for
the Picnic inthe Park, but mone-
tary donations and non-moneta-
ry donations of pet supplies are
welcome.
There are cruel people out
there that dont take care of ani-
mals, and we need some place
and someone thats going to
help to rescue these animals so
they can be loved, Heusner
said. The shelters help, but
without us helping the shelters
with them being non-profit and
all, they dont have the money or
the supplies to do it on their
own. They need assistance and
thats what were hoping to pro-
vide.

In addition, Forged will re-
ceive a red carpet premiere lo-
cally at Marquee Cinemas, 301
Lackawanna Ave., Scranton, on
Friday, Aug. 12. Screenings will
continue through at least Sun-
day, Aug. 14.
I wanted it to premiere in-
side the city. Its a real tip of the
hat to all of the people who
helped the film, Van Wie said.
Forged is also due for re-
lease on DVD and Netflix in
September.
The abrasive story of re-
demption wasnt originally
supposed to be filmed in north-
easternPennsylvania, however.
One month before shooting
began in Texas, where the film
was originally set, Van Wie and
director Will Wedig let intiu-
tion drive the film.
Forged is the story of Chu-
co, portrayed by Manny Perez,
a man fresh fromprison for kill-
ing his wife. Upon his release,
he must redeem himself to his
now-13-year-old son, Machito,
played by David Castro. The
story is built upon the amaz-
ing story of a father and son,
Van Wie said.
Shooting a Latino film in the
flat landscapes of Texas was
too clich.
We thought itd be interest-
ing to put the backdrop as
mountains and snow, this cold
and desolate town that lost in-
dustry. Its not that Scranton is
that, but we could shoot that
way, Van Wie said. Texas
wouldnt be a character in the
film... In the final cut, you see
Scranton as an overwhelming
character.
Cooperation fromlocal elect-
ed officials and the Scranton
fire and police departments
made securing unique loca-
tions like the Scranton Lace
Building, Lackawanna County
Prison, Bucktown Diner and
South Side Bowl, much easier,
Van Wie said. It also kept costs
from skyrocketing, leaving the
final cost of the film just under
$1 million.
The film was made by
Wilkes-Barre-based Revere Pic-
tures, which became JVW Inc.
upon the companys move to
Scranton in January.
Upcoming works include the
JoePaternoFilmProject, anad-
aptationof thenovel TheLionin
Autumn. A separate documen-
tary is currently in post-produc-
tion and due for release in the
spring of 2012, but Van Wie of-
fered few details about that en-
deavor.
In the meantime, JVW has
worked on political campaigns,
ads for attorneys and more. In-
come from those projects
doesnt simply fund creative
pictures. It alsokeeps the eight-
man team working out of 515
Center St., Scranton.
I have a lot of guys in this of-
fice, and all I care about is their
livelihood, Van Wie said.
He jokes that hell soon find
failure after the unique success
of Forged andLa Soga, then
lose touch with reality and be-
come a squirrel whisperer of
sorts on Courthouse Square.
Intruth, he hopes to findpro-
jects that challenge the teamat
JVW to perform at their best,
even when standing on the ab-
solute cusp of total failure.
I like taking big risks onpro-
jects, he said. Failure in itself
can be a reward. From that
point on, you learn what not to
do.
There was no back-up plan
to Forged. It had to be sold.
Hehopes tocontinuetowork
in the area and make profitable
films where most of his budget
can benefit local businesses.
We embraced the communi-
ty to a means that we gave
something to the community,
not took something away. We
left a lot here, he said.
I dont want to shoot any-
where else. I feel comfortable
here, and Scranton has been
nothing but gracious to me.

lternative rock group
Sick Puppies traveled
all the way from Aus-
tralia to California to pursue
their lifelongpassionfor music,
and the band shows no signs of
slowing down as they continue
touring in support of their lat-
est album, Tri-Polar.
The band will stop in the area
again next week at Eleanor Rigbys,
603 Scranton/Carbondale Highway
in Jermyn, on Monday, Aug. 1.
Singer/guitarist Shimon Moores
musical journey began when he met
bassist Emma Anzai in high school
in1997, who shared similar tastes in
Americanrock. Onatrainridetovis-
it his father, he had wrote Sick Pup-
pies down as a possible name for
the band he was forming, only to co-
incidentally find his father was read-
ing a book called Sick Puppy. The
name stuck despite the fact that the
bands sound has developed greatly
since its inception.
When we started off, we were a
lot more punk rock than we are now,
and it really fit the musical direction
of the band. But I think were lucky
because its sort of a catch phrase
that people use anyway, so its easy
to remember. Its always interesting
to hear what some people think of
the name after they hear our music,
Moore said.
Their mix of both soft and harder
harmonies gave them a wider audi-
ence, a sound that Moore said came
naturally as they grew.
I think that the sound sort of
evolves as you play more. We knew
that we wanted to sound like Rage
Against the Machine andSilverchair
andIncubus andall those bands that
have really good rhythm sections
and melodies, but how you actually
achieve it, I think, is just by playing
all the time. Eventually, you become
your own band, he explained.
Their first big break came in 2006
when Moore met Juan Mann while
working in a mall. He watched as
Mann held up a sign offering free
hugs to strangers as a way to pro-
mote randomacts of kindness. After
they had become friends, Moore
filmed Manns Free Hugs Campaign
with his fathers camera and made a
video for Mann as a get well card
after his grandmother passed away,
with Sick Puppies song All the
Same playing over the footage.
OncethevideowassharedonYou-
Tube, it went viral and launched the
band into the spotlight. While it is
Aussies have taken unique road into spotlight.

AYFIELD Chris
Hutchison still re-
calls the Saturday
mornings when, at age 5, hed
enter P.A. Hutchison Co. with
his father and sweep the floors
for $1.
Now, at age 41, Hutchison,
of Dalton, oversees operations
at one of the top mid-sized
book manufacturers in the
country.
P.A. Hutchison, whose primary
manufacturing facility is located at
400 Penn Ave., Mayfield, was
founded by Hutchisons great-
grandfather, Philip Alvord Hutchi-
son, in 1911 with a letter press at
135 N. Main Ave., Scranton.
His grandfather, C.N. Hutchison,
and father, Philip O. Hutchison,
ran the business before Chris
Hutchison became president in
1999.
It was very small, with maybe
one or two guys, Chris Hutchison
said of the business beginnings.
Now, the company has grown to
employ 135 people and moved
through four facilities including lo-
cations on Forest Court, Adams
Avenue and River Street before the
move to Mayfield in 1995.
The 150,000 square foot facility
takes nearly 10 million books each
year from files to finished prod-
ucts, Chris Hutchison said. The
business makes approximately $27
million in annual sales of soft cover
books.
Large publishers including Ka-
plan, Wolters Kluwer, IBM and the
federal government printing office
are among their returning custom-
ers.
Were a national company. We
deal with a lot of different industri-
es and all types of people. You real-
ly get a flavor for America every
day in this job because youre
touching so many different parts of
the economy and the landscape,
Chris Hutchison said.
As an only son, he was almost
destined to take over P.A. Hutchi-
son when the time was right, but
he admits that he wasnt always
ready for the move to manufactur-
ing.
Once I got to different positions
within the company, I realized that
I liked it a lot, he said. It was a big
difference seeing it from the end of
a machine every summer to seeing
the whole picture. Its pretty fast-
paced and exciting.
In the last 12 years, P.A. Hutchi-

rtists, skateboarders, members of

more gathered at the Jackson Street
Skate Park at the intersection of Jackson
Street and North Bromley Avenue for the
Drawcore Skate Park Mural Block Party held
July 16 and 17.
The event organized by police, the West
Scranton-Hyde Park Neighborhood Watch
and artist Ted Michalowski was centered
around a live mural painting inside the park.
Michalowski and a team of his students
built a mural on a large white wall that in-
cludes images of skateboarders and an hom-
age to Brix, a former Scranton K-9 that was
retired from service in Jan. 2010 and laid to
rest after battling an autoimmune neuro-
muscular disease in Feb. 2011.
Its not just amural. Its amuracle, Micha-
lowski joked.
Muralists were recognized at the July 21
meeting of the neighborhood watch.
Sponsors for the event included Zumiez,
Underwood Skate Park, Home Depot, Wal-
mart, the City of Scranton, the police depart-
ment and the neighborhood watch.
Live performances were offered from
Tribal Waves, The DDRC,Red Green Blue,
Sees, Smeltzer & Smyth, Adam Catscratch
& the Biotech Band, and Chet Williams &
Friends, along with a live radio broadcast
by 97.9X.

son has risen from being ranked
the 498th largest printer to the
175th largest in 2010 and is rec-
ognized as one of the top 25
book manufacturers in North
America. More than $11 million
was invested into new equip-
ment and facility expansions
over the last three years.
Weve been lucky to have the
right Hutchison at the right
time, Chris Hutchison said,
noting his great-grandfathers
exploration of offset printing
and his fathers move towards
book manufacturing.
Weve had a consistently
great workforce that have sup-
ported this business and helped
build it to what it is today, he
added.
Along with hiring employees
from Lackawanna County, P.A.
Hutchison was the original
printers of Happenings Maga-
zine and The Paper Shop, ac-
cording to Chris Hutchison.
He and his wife, Sara, are the
parents of two-month-old Hai-
ley Jo, and while its too early to
tell if shell become the fifth gen-
erationof Hutchisons toleadthe
custom book manufacturer, one
thing is certain.
Shes already got a full book-
shelf, Chris Hutchison said
with a laugh.

BOOK
The announced liquidation of Borders bookstores across the country,
including the Scranton store, began Friday, July 22. P.A. Hutchison
President Chris Hutchison said the local book manufacturer has felt
but not been terribly affected by the closure of the retailer that oper-
ates 399 stores and employs 10,700 people.
Weve been very fortunate thus far. Were feeling it more so because
some other people in our industry are feeling it. We strategically saw
e-books and some of the fallout coming years ago, and we built our
customer base in a way that would be unaffected as that transpired,
Hutchison said.
Whats yet to be seen is how long e-books last A lot of consumers, I
believe, will return to the printed book after trying the electronic.
The Associated Press reported Friday that 30 stores may remain open
if a proposed bid by rival bookseller Books-A-Million goes through. The
Birmingham, Ala.-based company is offering to buy the leases and
assets of stores, including the shop in Scranton, and keep them open.
The two chains are still in talks.
BORDERS IMPACT FELT
challenging for anyone to break
out in the American music in-
dustry, Moore and Anzai didnt
hesitate to move to California to
start their career in earnest.
We didnt think about it, and
we didnt look back, Moore re-
called.
The viral video wouldnt be
theonlywaythebandusedmod-
ernmedia togainattention. Sick
Puppies provided the theme
songusedtopromotetherelease
of Street Fighter IV, a popular
video game, and the WWE used
Youre Going Down for a pay-
per-view event and Smack-
Downvs. Raw2010videogame.
Additionally, theyappearedin
Rock Prophecies, a 2009 docu-
mentary about the career of fa-
mous music photographer Rob-
ert Knight, who took a liking to
the band and followed their de-
velopment. The movie endedup
serving as a time capsule of
their career.
I think its definitely neces-
sary to use all of the avenues
now. I think were lucky because
wehaveaslightlybroader demo-
graphic than a lot of other rock
bands, Moore explained.
(Knight) had some stories
and stuff, but after a while, you
start being more interested in
making your own stories.
Moore was also interested in
feedbackfromhis fans, whichhe
said led to the creation of their
2009 album, Tri-Polar. In
March of this year, Sick Puppies
released an accompanying
acoustic EP called Polar Oppo-
site with unplugged versions of
their songs. When he is able to
perform acoustically live, he
said that is when he feels closest
to his listeners.
Itsbetterformebecausepeo-
ple actually listen moreand
you can connect more. Theres a
different vibe that you create,
and then also the fans wind up
being very respectful of the mu-
sic, he said.
Theres always that goal to
connect to the people that listen
to you, to make them feel some-
thing.
Having been warmly received
in the area before, Moore is con-
fident that the Aug. 1 show will
be a success.
PUPPIES
While that may be obvious
to careful listeners, what
many fans do not knowis that
Mars suffers from ankylosing
spondylitis, a chronic form of
arthritis that causes inflam-
mation of his spine and pel-
vis. He said that he takes anti-
inflammatory drugs to help
him get through sometimes
grueling tour schedules, but
mostly he is forced to work
through the pain.
It still hurts. It still grinds
now and then, but like I said,
music is my whole passion.
Its what I do. Its what I live
for. I guess it keeps me alive,
he said.
Im just happy to be here,
to be able to make people
happy, to make people smile
and give them what I feel in-
side from my musicI hope
you like this, and if you dont,
oh well.
Those who think that his
career may be winding down
may also be surprised to
learn that his musical aspira-
tions are just beginning.
I think Motley was a giant
stepping stone for me. Im far
frombeing over. I amgoing to
do a solo album, but I amalso
going to make sure that its
the right people that I want to
play with. A lot of people will
look at this record that I want
to do and go, I didnt know
Mick could do that. If it
doesnt come off that way, I
wont do it, Mars said.
On this tour, Motley Crue
is offering audiences the
chance to witness a 360 de-
gree roller coaster drum solo
and pyrotechnics that are
stupidly over the top, but
through it all, the quietest
and most humble member of
the group also hopes that
fans will turn out for the mu-
sic.
This is probably one of the
biggest and best shows weve
done since quite a long time.
Even with Red, White, &
Crue and Carnival of Sins,
this is even better than that.

WILKES-
BARRE
TOWNSHIP
The debut of
Mixed Martial
Arts and the
Mohegan Sun
Arena July 16 was playing to
relatively mixed reviews.
With the best punch of his
career, James Cianci elevated
the energy level inside an
arena that was more than two-
thirds empty.
Rex Harris and Chase
Owens took it from there with
the most competitive and
action-packed bout of the
night, followed by yet another
stirring Jimy Hettes win in the
main event.
Cianci, from Clarks Summit,
and Hettes, a Swoyersville
fighter who has built much of
his career in Lackawanna
County in the Cage Fight se-
ries that brought the sport to
northeastern Pennsylvania,
began and ended a closing
stretch that made the card
leave a far more favorable
impression.
Every growing sport faces
the dilemma of when it be-
longs on a bigger stage.
Maury Nehme and Chris
Coyne of Northeast MMA
promoted Cage Fights 1
through 8, often packing ven-
ues like Riverfront Sports and
the Icebox Complex in Scran-
ton while building the local
momentum for the sport, mak-
ing last weeks event possible.
New promoters Jonathan
Kernis and Mike Malast
formed Mixed Martial Arts
Super Sport (MASS) Produc-
tions and took the first stab at
moving up to a larger arena.
Mohegan Sun Arena seats
8,350 for Wilkes-Barre/Scran-
ton Penguins hockey games
and about 10,000 for concerts,
which have the similar struc-
ture of floor seating available
as what MMA was able to use.
A crowd of about 2,600, like
what MASS Productions gath-
ered, would create a spectacle
and ensure success in a small-
er building, but it can poten-
tially create a different impres-
sion inside a much larger
building.
Fans paid as much as $100
for seats to watch the card,
which featured nine fights,
compared to the more than a
dozen on a typical Cage Fight
series card. More than 10
fights were originally project-
ed, but the fight card was
down to 10 by fight night and
losing one more late is typical
of many boxing and MMA
events.
Of the 11 fighters named on
the program cover, four, in-
cluding Scrantons Dave Mor-
gan, did not compete. Morgan
was out with a rib injury.
The card started 40 minutes
late and was moving along at a
reasonably entertaining pace
before Cianci got his shot.
I worked on my hands a lot
training for this fight, Cianci
said. I wanted to let them go.
He did just that.
Cianci and Ryan Harder
maneuvered around the cage
cautiously, each trying to land
punches. The first shot that
either landed brought an end
to the fight.
Ciancis vicious right hand to
the chin sent Harder back into
the cage. He bounced off and
landed face down, leading to a
quick stoppage at 55 seconds
of the first round.
Its great to be able to show-
case all the work you put in,
Cianci said after improving to
3-0.
Harris, a former Wilkes
University wrestler from Os-
sining, N.Y., won his profes-
sional MMA debut, finally
stopping Freelands Owens
with 11 seconds left after they
had traded top position
throughout their bout.
The most active and suspen-
seful bout of the night was a
perfect lead-in to the main
event.
Hettes put his 7-0 pro re-
cord, including six first-round
submissions, on the line
against Jacob Kirwan, a Mary-
land fighter with wins in eight
of his 10 bouts.
Kirwan was on top of Hettes
for much of the final two min-
utes of the first round.
The benefit I had is that I
knew Jacob Kirwan was going
to be real tough and it was
going to be a war, Hettes said.
Knowing that, I was prepared
for anything.
Hettes took charge in the
second round, eventually win-
ning on a triangle choke hold
tapout at 3:58.
The card provided a poten-
tial stepping stone for those
who want to consider bringing
MMA events back to the arena
and for Hettes, who has since
committed to four future Ulti-
mate Fighting Championship
appearances.
We used to have to go out
of state all the time, Hettes
said. Just getting booed all
the time, it takes a toll on you.
Fighters around here are
spoiled a little bit. The fans
here are great. They know
your name and cheer you on.
Hettes said he enjoyed the
home-field advantage.
It works both ways, however.
Without performances like
the ones Cianci and Hettes
turned in, it would be impos-
sible for even the most daring
of promoters to build the
sport.

CRANTON When the North lost the lead that she
had helped create, Erika Symons did not viewit as a
missed opportunity.
Symons saw the opposite in the new situation.
When its tied, 2-2, thats my favorite part of the game,
the Mid Valley graduate and Lackawanna College recruit
said after being named Most Valuable Player for her role in
the Norths 4-2 victory over the South in the girls game at
the ninthannual UNICOScrantonSoccer Cup Friday night
at the University of Scrantons Fitzpatrick Field.
When its tied like that, you
knowyou have to get something
done.
I like that pressure.
Symons, who had scored in
the first half toerase anearly def-
icit, needed less than three min-
utes to create a response when
the South forced a late 2-2 tie.
North Poconos Corinne
Glassman, playing defense for
the South, made a strong recov-
ery to chase down Symons and
break up a prime scoring oppor-
tunity.
Symons, however, never stop-
ped. She wona battle withGlass-
man and Amanda Greene, the
South goalie, managing to poke
the ball loose.
Forest Citys Alysa Borick
took over from there, getting to
the ball right in front of the goal
from 10 yards out to strike the
game-winning shot.
Im a fighter, Symons said.
If theres a ball loose, chances
are Im going to be there.
Despite playingona teamthat
went just 10-41-1during her four-
year career, Symons managed
102 goals at Mid Valley, scoring
as many as seven in a game.
In Fridays game, the only
Spartanette selected had the ad-
vantage of increased support.
The number-one thing that I
was excited about was getting to
playwithall thebest of thebest,
Symons said. It was just unbe-
lievable.
The make-up of her team
changed, but Symons still found
herself in the same role.
I came here to score, she
said. Thats my job.
My teammates got me the
ball.
Symons produced a goal and
an assist to help the North offset
a two-goal effort by Katie Iyoob,
who helped Valley Viewto Lack-
awanna League Division 1 and
District 2 Class AA champion-
ships.
Iyoob scored on an assist from
teammate Tory Leggona corner
kick about five minutes into the
game.
Symons took a pass from a
teammate and dribbled through
the middle of the South defense
to tie the game in the 14th min-
ute.
Blue Ridges Hayley Rupakus
picked up a loose ball about 30
yards out and went in for the go-
aheadgoal for the North2:49 lat-
er.

K
evin Kilpatrick and
Skylar Lavage
helped lead their
highschool football teamsto
championships as seniors.
They will combine to lead
the County into Wednesday
nights 77th annual Dream
Gameat ScrantonMemorial
Stadium.
Both coaches indicated the li-
kelihood of working their entire
rosters through significant play-
ing time, but when they project-
edtheir startinglineups, asof Fri-
day afternoon, Kilpatrick and
Lavage were the onlytwotohave
offensive and defensive spots to
themselves.
Kilpatrick, who helped Abing-
tonHeights winthe Lackawanna
Football Conference Division 1
andDistrict 2Class AAAtitles, is
a guardanddefensive endfor the
County.
Guards are really important
toour offense, saidLackawanna
Trail coach Steve Jervis, who is
guidingtheCountyteam. Kilpa-
trick and (Lakelands Derek)
Fron are doing a great job up
front.
Lavage is set to start at tight
end and strong-side linebacker.
After helping Riverside to the
District 2 title and a berth in the
state Class A championship
game, Lavage is one of the rea-
sons Jervis is happy withthe way
his defense is shaping up.
Jervispointedout linemenTyl-
er Havirlak of Valley View and
Josh Snyder of Abington
Heights, along with Lavage, as
the players who were defensive
standouts at practice throughout
the first week of preparation.
Abington Heights halfback
James Fruehan and Riverside
quarterback Corey Talerico have
beentwoof theoffensiveleaders,
according to Jervis, and are both
expected to contribute defen-
sively. Bothwere1,000-yardrush-
ers last season while earning all-
staterecognition, Fruehanfor his
defense and Talerico as the state
Class APlayer of the Year.
Fruehan will be one of the two
wingback/halfbacks in the
wing-Toffense.
Mid Valleys Chris Washo will
get thequarterbackstart over Ta-
lerico, whooriginallywas unsure
if he wouldbe able toplay. Jervis,
however, said Talerico would get
equal time with the first unit.
Corey is going to be in there a
great deal, Jervis said.
Jervis praised Talericos effort
in getting to the majority of prac-
tices despite having to commute
from West Chester University
where he has already started tak-
ing classes.
Fruehan and Talerico will
share the strong safety position.
Old Forges Brandon Sourya-
vong, Lakelands DerrickHanley,
Valley Views Joe Browning and
Old Forges Conner Fultz are
scheduled for significant two-
way duty.
Souryavong is a starting offen-
sive tackle and is expected to

BOYS GAME
The North overcame a late
goal by Justin Klingman of
Abington Heights to turn back
the South, 3-1, in the boys game
that completed the doublehead-
er.
Klingman knocked in the re-
bound of a shot by Valley Views
Nick Milenkovski with 12:10 re-
maining to cut the North lead to
2-0.
Honesdales Tom Cahill, who
had scored the only goal of the
first half, headedinacorner kick
fromNorthPoconosJosiahBux-
ton for the clinching goal with
three minutes remaining.
Cahill joined Symons as the
MVPs, who received an award
named in memory of Al Dante.
Dante, a former Scranton UNI-
CO member and national UNI-
COpresident, wasasupporterof
the soccer all-star game.
Western Waynes Andrew
Green had a goal while Hones-
dales Jonah Fowler and Elk
Lakes Joey Woolcock added as-
sists.
The North led in shots, 23-15,
and corner kicks, 4-1.

Montroses Danny Simonds
made three second-half saves.
West Scrantons Tyler Bone-

UNICO
Kevin Swartz, top, of Forest City, trips over Mid Valleys Scott Steblinski during the UNICO game
on Friday, July 22.
millay in a three-way rotation at
the wide receiver position.
West Scrantons Tyler Hughes,
DelawareValleys JoshReynolds,
Dunmores Jerry Hubshman,
North Poconos Chris Isbitski,
Dunmores Jimmy Pichariello
and Holy Cross Kevin Watson
have been some of the top per-
formers at City practice.
Hughes will run a one-back,
shot-gun offense largely created
to emphasize his talents at quar-
terback.
Hughes is an outstanding
player, City coach Nick Donato
said. Hes quick with a great
arm. Hes as talented as everybo-
dy thinks.
Like Talerico, Reynolds was
once thought to be unavailable.
After a communications mix-
up, he joined the City in time for
the second practice and is set to
joinHubshman, whoisheadedto
Division I Championship Subdi-
vision school Stony Brook, as
starting guards.
Isbitski, who is headed to East
StroudsburgUniversity, hasbeen
one of the Citys top defensive
performers as an end. He will be
joinedupfront byWatson, a tack-
le.
The performance of Pichariel-
lo, the only true halfback on the
City roster, has made Donato
more comfortable with that posi-
tion.
Hughes should have plenty of
help from the other skill posi-
tions. Donato also praised the ef-
forts of North Pocono fullback
Greg Sporko, and two receivers
Hughes knows well, West Scran-
ton tight end Tim Langan and
wide receiver Ray Dominguez.
Donato has decided to go with
entirely different starters offen-
sively and defensively.
Hubshman and Reynolds are
likelytobejoinedintheoffensive
front by tackles Peter Calderone
of North Pocono and Pat Watson
of Holy Cross and center Gaeta-
no Bruno of Wallenpaupack.
Langan and Scranton Preps
Pat Murray will share tight end
duties in the multiple-formation
offense.
Sporko and Pichariello are the
backs, depending on formation.
The teamwill use up to three re-
ceivers at a time, with Domin-
guezjoiningNorthPoconosNick
Bell and Frankie DePietro.
Isbitski and Kevin Watson are
part of a defensive front that also
includes Dunmores Joe Sabia at
tackle. West Scrantons Tyrek
Matthews and Scrantons Jesse
Wilson Kellogg will probably
share the other end spot.
Susquehannas Nick Marco is
the middle linebacker with Dela-
wareValleys AdamManzoni and
West Scrantons Ian Lotz on the
outside.
Scranton Preps Cory Curmaci
and Delaware Valleys Max Gon-
zalez are cornerbacks. Dun-
moresMorganHolmesisthefree
safety with Susquehannas Dan
Kempa at strong safety.
Amongtheother Countystart-
ers are: Western Wayne center
Zack Landherr, Riverside tackle
AlexPucilowski, WesternWayne
halfback Josh Harrison, Old
Forge linebacker Michael Taglia-
ferri, Mid Valley defensive tackle
Mike Chaput and Carbondale
cornerbacks Michael Torch and
Carmen Carachilo.
