Two health systems are major players in the medical field

Reshaping health care By ANDREW M. SEDER aseder@timesleader.com

SCRANTON -- Just three years ago, Scranton and Wilkes-Barre had five hospital operators for its six hospitals. By the end of the year, that number could dwindle to two, thanks to mergers and sales. On Tuesday, two more announcements were made that will reshape the hospital landscape in Northeastern Pennsyl-

Senior centers cool places to be By MATT HUGHES mhughes@timesleader.com

The sticky, sweltering heat expected to continue through this weekend is a threat to senior citizens’ health, and the Agency on Aging for Luzerne and Wyoming Counties is stepping in to offer relief for older persons.

“The intense heat that we’re having puts a lot of seniors at risk for some heat-related issues,” agency Director Trula Hollywood said. “Even fans don’t cut it in this kind of heat.” The agency will offer extended hours at six multiservice centers in Luzerne and Wyoming

counties to act as cooling stations for seniors. The centers will be open today, Thursday and Friday from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., and on Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The centers that will have exSee HEAT WAVE, Page 12A

WASHINGTON — Declaring “11th hour” urgency” to raise the government’s borrowing limit, President Barack Obama on Tuesday hailed a plan by “Gang of Six” senators from both parties to reduce federal deficits as the kind of balanced approach that could break an economy-threatening deadlock. He said it was time for Congress as a whole to rally around such a proposal. “We don’t have any more INSIDE: Repubtime to engage lican area in symbolic ges- congressmen tures, we don’t Barletta and Marino talk have any more about their time to posture. votes on House It’s time to get bill, 12A. down to the business of actually solving this problem,” the president said. Obama spoke even as House Republicans pushed toward a vote on separate legislation that would require trillions in spending cuts and agreement on a balanced-budget constitutional amendment in exchange for an increase in the debt ceiling, which the government says must be raised by Aug. 2 to avoid economic calamity. On Tuesday night, the House passed the tea party-backed legislation. The 234-190 vote sends the “cut, cap and balance” plan to the Democratic-controlled Senate, where it has virtually no chance of passing. Obama has said he would veto it if it ever arrived at his desk. Facing the deadline in two weeks, Obama said he would call House Speaker John Boehner after Tuesday’s vote to invite him See GANG, Page 12A

POLICE BLOTTER BUCK TWP. – The Luzerne County Coroner has identified the man killed in a singlevehicle accident on state Route 115 early Monday morning. Coroner John Corcoran said John Paolino died of multiple traumatic injuries after his 1994 Dodge truck hit a tree about a mile north of Thornhurst Road at approximately 5:30 a.m. Monday. The truck caught fire after the crash, Corcoran said. Corcoran said Paolino was identified using dental records by forensic dentists John Hosage and Steven Bonomo, both of Wilkes-Barre. Paolino is believed to be originally from New York, but investigators had not determined his age or last residence because identification documents in the vehicle were destroyed by fire. Corcoran said he is waiting to hear back from members of Paolino’s family to confirm that information. HANOVER TWP. -- A Posten cab driver was robbed by three armed men at around 10:15 p.m. Tuesday at East Division and Cherry streets. Police said the three men used both a gun and a knife. The men fled into the woods toward Hanover Village. The cab driver was taken from the scene. There was no word on injuries. Wilkes-Barre and township police searched the area but no arrests were made as of press time.

Barbara Carbohn of Lehman Township was killed when her Chevrolet collided with a Subaru at the same intersection. Both vehicles came to rest on the same embankment. Kofchak said the accident was discovered at 10:11 p.m. by officer Jeff Fox of the Plymouth police, who was driving on East Main Street towards Edwardsville. Thompson was conscious when Fox arrived but said the driver said he didn’t remember the accident, Kofchak said. Thompson was taken by ambulance to Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center for treatment of injuries sustained in the crash. NANTICOKE – City police reported the following incidents: • Police said Howard Stritzinger of Prince Street was taken into custody and cited with public drunkenness after police said they saw him sleeping on a bench in front of the Oplinger Towers on East Main Street on Monday. • Helen Allabaugh of Hanover Township reported to police that she was at a function at the Quoit Club in Nanticoke on Monday when someone entered her unlocked car and took a change purse and plastic bag, both containing cash.

SCRANTON -- Say what you will about Lil Wayne, but the man definitely knows how to throw a party. The 28-year-old rapper from New Orleans, backed by a full band and a DJ, brought his “I Am Still Music” tour to the Toyota Pavilion at Montage Mountain on Thursday, complete with a 15-screen video backdrop, fireworks and a massive set of scaffolding for him to race about the stage. The almost-equally popular Rick Ross and three other hip-hop acts completed the bill. After opening sets by Lloyd, Far East Movement and Keri Hilson, the rapper Ross – known as Rozay to his multitude of fans – lit up the stage with a fast-paced 40-minute set full of hits. Standouts included his early hit “Hustlin’ ” and a tune called “MC Hammer.” Ross then capped his performance with a glorious performance of “I’m On One.” On any other night, Ross’ performance could have been the headliner, but as soon as Lil Wayne took the stage, everyone in the sizeable crowd knew who was in charge. Lil Wayne, who was serving an eight-month sentence for criminal possession of a weapon at this time last year, owned the stage from the get-go. Early highlights of his set included “3 Peat,” “A Milli” and “Go DJ” – and he was just getting warmed up. “You’re going to hear this a lot to-

New Megan’s Law ordinance is passed By EILEEN GODIN Times Leader Correspondent

HARVEYS LAKE -- Council members on Tuesday night unanimously passed Megan’s Law II ordinance setting residency restrictions on sexually violent predators. The new ordinance will sets a standardized distance of 1,000 feet from any school, library, child care facility, common open space, community center, park or recreational facility from the residence of a “sexually violent predator.” A map with the distances is combined with the ordinance.

If a sexually violent predator lives within the restricted area, borough police will issue a 45day notice to relocate. If the person does not move, imprisonment of up to 90 days and a fine of not more than $1,000 plus the costs of prosecution, court costs and other legal fees will be applied. A copy of the ordinance is available in the borough office. Also, resident Carol Culver questioned the council on its progress with forming a panel to examine legal ways to protect Harveys Lake from the effects of natural gas drilling. Council member Ryan Doughton said the council was formed and has met twice. He added a proposed ordinance draft is being drawn up by borough engineer Jack Varaly.When the ordinance

LOCAL Maguire gets 2 months Former county Redevelopment Authority member accepted $1,400 from a contractor. By SHEENA DELAZIO sdelazio@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – A former Luzerne County Redevelopment Authority member was sentenced Tuesday to two months in prison, followed by two years of supervised release, for accepting a $1,400 payment from a contractor to the authority. William Maguire, 61, who also is a former Wilkes-Barre city chief of detectives, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge A. Richard Caputo, who said Maguire must begin serving his sentence

on Aug. 9. “It’s not just taking $1,400 … ,” Caputo said. “It’s more than that. It’s a breach of the public’s trust.” The judge, explaining why he felt incarceration was appropriate, said one thing that separates himself and other officers of the court from the public is that they take an oath to perform their duties faithfully. “If we don’t take that seriously … it’s silent anarchy,” Caputo said. “It’s troubling to me that you were a police officer … and stooped to this kind of behavior.” Maguire’s attorneys, Frank Nocito and Philip Gelso, asked Caputo to give their client a probationary sentence because of his background with the

Pittston voters may soon get to decide to explore a new form of government. City council will vote at its meeting this evening whether to place home rule on the ballot in November. The meeting is at 7 p.m. in the municipal building, 35 Broad St. Council passed an ordinance on first reading July 7 to place the home rule question on the ballot. If the ordinance passes, Pittston voters in November will vote Argo on whether to establish a government study commission to study the city’s current form of government under the third-class city code and decide whether to replace it with a government of its own design. If the question is approved, voters will elect members of the government study commission in the May primaries. Councilman Danny Argo said the city is facing a budget crunch brought on by a steadily declining population and exacerbated by the need, as required in the third-class city code, to maintain full-time police and fire departments. The city already levies the highest property taxes, at 6.85 mills, in Luzerne County besides Wilkes-Barre, which uses its own assessment of property values for taxation purposes rather than the county values. Property taxes in Pittston are more than triple the rate levied in neighboring Pittston Township, Argo said. Approving a home rule charter would give the city additional resources to raise revenue, Argo said, including levying a higher earned income tax. WILKES-BARRE

GOP candidate for Wilkes-Barre mayor Lisa Cope has been spending the summer meeting residents and is raising money for her campaign against Democratic incumbent Tom Leighton.

Cope confident of her chances GOP challenger said her odds of defeating Democratic incumbent are getting better.

By BILL O’BOYLE boboyle@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – Lisa Cope likes her chances of defeating Mayor Tom Leighton in November. She likes the odds a lot better than she did after her May primary win that garnered the Republican nomination. Cope has been attending summer bazaars, and she said an increasing number of people are coming up to her and pledging their support. And an old friend, former Democratic mayoral candidate Charlotte Raup,

this week endorsed Cope because, she said, “It’s time to take our city back.” “I’ll take all the help I can get,” Cope said. “It’s better to have Charlotte on my side than on my opponent’s.” Cope said she is trying to raise money for the campaign – something she didn’t do during the primary. She knows Leighton has cash on hand – more than $60,000 after the May Democratic primary. “I will accept all donations,” Cope said. “I know it will take a lot to beat the mayor.” Cope is a registered Republican, but she knows that to win in November she will need to attract Democratic votes.

“This election isn’t about Democrats or Republicans,” Cope said. “It’s about what is best for all the people and what’s best for the city.” Cope, 45, of High Street, works at Lord & Taylor in Wilkes-Barre Township. She ran unsuccessfully for city controller in 2007. During the campaign leading up to the primary, Cope said the city’s neighborhoods have been neglected for too long in favor of the downtown area. She said the city appears to be deteriorating and there needs to be a refocus on the city’s infrastructure. Cope wants to focus on fixing things like streets and sewers. She said overspending needs to stop as well. See MAYOR, Page 4A

Controller wants quarterly reports on finances Walter Griffith says the public is unaware of the county’s financial state. By JENNIFER LEARN-ANDES jandes@timesleader.com

The public is in the dark about the state of Luzerne County’s finances because the budget/finance office has stopped presenting mandatory quarterly budget reports, county Controller Walter Griffith said Tuesday. The administrative code adopted by commissioners in 2004 requires a public report on the county’s budget and finances “at least quarterly.” The quarterly reports stopped when former county budget/finance chief Tom Pribula resigned last December, Griffith said. Commissioners Maryanne Petrilla

and Stephen A. Urban said Joan Pusateri, who was promoted to the budget/ finance chief position in December, is working to get caught up on the quarterly reports. Pusateri plans to present a budget status report at next month’s commissioner meeting or work session, they said. Commissioners wanted Pusateri to put the quarterly reports on the back burner and focus on audits needed to obtain a credit rating, the commissioners said. A credit rating is needed to pursue refinancing of county debt at lower interest rates, they said. Urban said Pusateri has indicated that spending and revenue are on track.

Gregory Fann was sentenced in March 2010 to life in prison for shooting Witko to death during a gun deal gone bad in May 2008. The state Superior Court upheld the conviction in March 2011.

MUNICIPAL BRIEFS LARKSVILLE – Code officials remind all residents with a swimming pool, hot tub or spa containing water more than 24 inches in depth, that Section 303,2 of the International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC) requires that they be completely surrounded by a fence or barrier at least 48 inches in height above the finished ground level measured on the side of the barrier away from the pool.

supporting a contract for an unnamed company. Gelso argued Maguire’s and Brace’s cases are not similar because Brace was a county official with more authority than Maguire.

N.J. medical marijuana on the way

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie answers a question Tuesday in Trenton after he announced he will allow the state to begin dispensing medical marijuana despite his concern over whether federal authorities could prosecute state regulators. New Jersey legalized marijuana for patients with certain conditions days before Christie took office in January 2010, but implementation has been delayed as the state has labored over regulatory details.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — A space shuttle left the International Space Station for the very last time Tuesday, heading home to end the 30-year run of a vessel that kept U.S. astronauts flying to and from orbit longer than any other rocketship. Atlantis slipped away after performing a partial lap around the space station. Ten pairs of eyes pressed against the windows, four in the shuttle and six in the station. All that remains of NASA’s final shut-

tle voyage is the touchdown, targeted for the pre-dawn hours of Thursday back home in Florida. “Get her home safely and enjoy the last couple days in space shuttle Atlantis,” Mission Control told commander Christopher Ferguson and his crew. Replied Ferguson: “It’s been an incredible ride.” The voice emanating from the shuttle Mission Control Center cracked with emotion, as the lead team of controllers signed off for the very last time. “When you walk out the door of MCC there, turn around and make a memory,” urged Ferguson. In keeping with tradition, Atlantis’ departure was marked by the ringing of the naval ship’s bell aboard the space station. The undocking occurred nearly 250 miles above the Pacific. “Atlantis departing the International

Space Station for the last time,” space station astronaut Ronald Garan Jr. announced, ringing the bell three times. “We’ll miss you guys. Godspeed.”As a final salute, the space station rotated 90

degrees to provide never-before-seen views of the complex. Atlantis flew halfway around the outpost, cameras whirring aboard both craft to record the historic event.

Israeli naval vessels on Tuesday seized a French-flagged protest boat carrying 16 pro-Palestinian passengers as it attempted to break through Israel’s blockade of the Gaza Strip.

Free birth control advised

Millions of women may soon gain free access to a broad menu of birth control methods, thanks to a recommendation issued Tuesday by health experts advising the government. An Institute of Medicine panel recommended that the government require health insurance companies to cover birth control for women as a preventive service, without copayments.

Murdoch won’t take the blame

Media mogul tells British lawmakers he was not responsible for phone hacking by his tabloid newspaper. By PAISLEY DODDS and JILL LAWLESS Associated Press

LONDON — Rupert Murdoch told British lawmakers on Tuesday he was not responsible for a phone hacking scandal that has rocked his global empire, in a dramatic hearing interrupted when a protester tried to attack the media baron with white foam. Murdoch appeared by turns vague, truculent, sharp and concise as he spoke alongside his son and deputy, James, calling the parliamentary inquiry “the most humble day of my career” but refusing to take personal blame for the crisis that has swept from a tabloid newspaper through the top levels of Britain’s police and even to the prime minister’s office. Murdoch, 80, said he was “shocked, ap-

palled and ashamed” at the hacking of the phone of a murdered schoolgirl by his now-shuttered News of the World tabloid. But he quibbled with a suggestion that criminality had been endemic at the tabloid and said he had seen no evidence that victims of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attack and their relatives were targeted by any of his papers.

“Endemic is a very hard, a very wide ranging word,” Murdoch said. “I also have to be very careful not to prejudice the course of justice that is taking place now.” Murdoch said he was not responsible for the hacking scandal, and denied his company was guilty of willful blindness over hacking. He laid blame on “the people I trusted but they blame maybe the people that they trusted.” After more than two hours of testimony, a man in a plaid shirt appeared to run toward Murdoch with a pie plate full of foam, before being struck by the executive’s wife, Wendi Deng. The foam hit Murdoch’s suit jacket. Police in the back of the committee room held an apparently handcuffed man with the foam covering his face and shirt. Media reports identified him as Jonnie Marbles, a British comedian. Police said he had been arrested on suspicion of assault during a public meeting.

Police: Fla. teen killed parents, then partied Tyler Hadley was charged with bludgeoning his parents with a hammer before hosting a party. By MATT SEDENSKY Associated Press

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla — Neighbors knew Tyler Hadley as a polite and respectful teen who played basketball with his father in the driveway and built forts of junked wood as a kid — not as someone who could kill his parents and throw a party while their bodies lay tucked beneath towels and other items in a locked bed-

room. The 17-year-old made his first court appearanceTuesdayafterbeing charged in the killings of his parents, Blake and Mary-Jo Hadley, whom authorities say he bludHadley geoned with a hammer Saturday before hosting a party for dozens of friends. A motive remains unclear. His politeness was baffling to Tom Bakkedahl, the prosecutor who later viewed the bodies of Hadley’s parents as they underwent autopsies at the medical examiner’s office.

“His demeanor in court was not consistent with what I saw at the autopsy,” Bakkedahl said of the parents, whose heads and torsos were maimed in the alleged attack. Hadley is being charged as an adult in his parents’ killings. He will not face the death penalty if convicted because of his age. Police said Hadley posted word on Facebook around 1:15 p.m. Saturday that he would be hosting a party at his house that night. Sometime afterward, the parents were attacked outside their bedroom, where their bodies were brought and covered with varied household items, and the door was locked.

Lottery set for gay nuptials

NYC mayor says 764 couples will be selected to exchange vows on Sunday. By SAMANTHA GROSS Associated Press

NEW YORK — New York City will hold a lottery for couples who want to get married on the first day same-sex marriage will be legal, the mayor announced Tuesday. Mayor Michael Bloomberg said 764 couples will be selected to get married on Sunday in the city clerk’s five borough offices. Couples can register for the lottery online or by calling 311 in the 48 hours beginning noon Tuesday, and winners will be notified by Friday at noon. Officials said they were trying to keep the day special for couples and prevent those seeking wedded bliss from waiting for hours only to be turned away. “We want to make sure that Sunday is not like a trip to motor vehicles,” said City Council Speaker Christine Quinn. The city clerk’s office will continue expanded operations next week, bringing in extra judges and staff and staying open two extra hours each day to handle the anticipated demand. Officials said 2,661 couples have already preregistered for marriage licenses online, and they believe about half of them wish to be married on Sunday.

church in Philadelphia, and vowed to work to heal the wounds of sex-abuse victims, clergy and lay members alike. Archbishop Charles Chaput, 66, of Denver takes over an archdiocese of nearly 1.5 million Catholics that’s been rocked by school closings, a dwindling supply of priests and nuns, and Chaput two grand jury reports that accuse the church of hiding sexabuse complaints for decades. Outgoing Archbishop Justin Rigali will retire to Tennessee after eight turbulent years leading the archdiocese. The grand jury excoriated Rigali and his predecessor, Anthony Bevilacqua, finding they protected church interests over those of victims. Critics of Chaput’s tenure in Colorado complain that he fought hard to block efforts to extend the time that child sex-abuse victims have to file suit. Chaput said Tuesday that he did so only so that the church would be treated no differently under the law than anyone else.

The state Department of Health and Department of State will investigate the two deals and must sign off on them to be approved.

will make each hospital better, and health care will improve for local residents. “I’ll go up against anybody. CHS is terrific. They’re good people. They’ve got good values. They’re hospital-centric. And I think it’s good. We can get our folks torqued up. We can’t just lay back. We’ve really got to work our tails off in order to compete with them. I think that’s great,” Steele said. John Mellon, a business professor at Misericordia University, said the consolidation of smaller hospitals into bigger systems is a positive. “The way to survive today is partnerships. Businesses cannot survive financially unless you’re part of a big conglomerate. Strength in numbers,” he said. He said patients should benefit because costs can be kept down, special services can be performed within the system and more doctors can be attracted to the local hospitals because there will be more financial resources to pay them. CMC President and Chief Executive Officer Robert P. Steigmeyer said he sees no losses for the community, only gains. “I think the dynamic of two

Nurses weigh in Another group that will keep a watchful eye on the proceedings is the Pennsylvania Association of Staff Nurses & Allied Professionals, the union representing nurses at CMC. The union and the hospital signed a 2½-year deal in November, and Steele said that contract will be honored.

Groundwork laid In August 2009, CMC and Geisinger signed a non-binding letter of intent to explore possible ways to work together, but four months later the talks ended with no partnership in place. But the groundwork was laid, according to Steigmeyer. He said talks resumed in December and intensified this spring. Though CMC could certainly continue operating independently and remain viable, that wasn’t how CMC wanted to operate. “Are we stable? You bet,” said Steigmeyer. But he said the health care landscape has changed, and today “it’s really not about thriving. It’s about surviving.” One group that wasn’t part of any announcement Tuesday but surely kept a close watch

on the news was Blue Cross of Northeastern Pennsylvania. The Wilkes-Barre-based health insurer issued a statement Tuesday regarding the two announcements. “Both CMC and MTHCS are important community assets. We look forward to learning more about Geisinger’s and CHS’s plans for CMC and MTHCS, respectively, and for improving health care access for patients in the Scranton market.” Anthony Matrisciano, a Blue Cross spokesman, said that it’s too early tell what, if any, impact the deals would have on the insurer. “We have relationships with both CHS and Geisinger, so it’s not like a new player is coming in,” Matrisciano said.

new competitors to the town raises the bar and I believe all boats rise for the citizens of Northeast Pennsylvania,” he said. Tuesday’s announcement by CMC and Geisinger followed an aborted attempt at cooperation two years ago.

“As nurses, we would welcome a merger with Geisinger if it means that more resources can be brought to the bedside, to better care for our patients,” said Roben Schwartz, a registered nurse and president of the local nurses union affiliated with PASNAP. “While capital improvements and electronic records play a role in patient care, what our patients need is a skilled nurse at their bedside. Such resources should also be used to have a sufficient number of nurses to provide the quality care our patients deserve.” All 1,400 employees of CMC will keep their jobs, said Steele, who added he hopes to add 5 percent to the workforce over the next few years. Within the Moses Taylor Health Care System, positions for all 1,600 employees are not guaranteed. According to the Moses Taylor release, “Active employees in good standing at the time the transaction closes will be hired into their same positions, at the same rate of pay and with their seniority recognized for a minimum of one year post-closing.” It’s unclear what would happen after that. The state Department of Health and Department of State will investigate the two deals and must sign off on them to be approved. Since both Moses Taylor and CMC are not-for-profit entities, the state must be sure that there are no antitrust issues and that the hospital’s donations and charitable assets are protected.

Classroom aides decry budget-cutting layoffs

Gym floor fix set at nearly $175K

By MARK GUYDISH mguydish@timesleader.com

HANOVER TWP. – Lori Fedor put a tearful face to the steep cuts in school district budgets Monday during a Hanover Area School Board work session. “I just don’t understand how you went about choosing who got laid off,� Fedor said, choking back tears. “I love these kids.� Fedor and several other parttime classroom aides attended the meeting, holding up letters they received notifying them they were losing their jobs. Fedor said she has worked in the district for seven years, and that other aides with less seniority had retained their jobs. Superintendent Anthony Podczasy said the decisions on which aides were laid off was made by Steven Greenfield, district director of pupil services/ special education, and that he did not know the details of Greenfield’s decision, though apparently all classroom aides were laid off while “personal aides� assigned to individual students were retained. Greenfield is on vacation this week. Fedor said that, had someone contacted her, she would readily have changed job titles to keep working. “I would become

Cereal dispute leads to arrest for Nanticoke man, woman Police charge Jason Slater and Laura Rasmus with harassment, simple assault. By SHEENA DELAZIO sdelazio@timesleader.com

NANTICOKE – A city couple was charged this weekend after an argument that began over spilled cereal. City police said Jason Slater, 27, and Laura Rasmus, 23, both of East Church Street, were charged with harassment and simple assault after police responded to their home late Saturday for the report of an assault. Slater and Rasmus were arraigned on the charges Sunday morning and were released on their own recognizance. A preliminary hearing for the duo has tentatively been scheduled for July 26 before District Judge Donald Whittaker. According to court papers, at around 11:45 p.m. Sunday police were called to the East Church Street home for the report of a man who was assaulted. Slater told police he was assaulted by his girlfriend, Rasmus, and that he had been laying on the couch with a bowl of cereal. While laying on the couch, Slater said, he began to fall asleep and spilled a little cereal on the floor. Rasmus, Slater said, told him she “hated when he did that� and began to punch, slap and kick Slater. Slater said he tried to get Rasmus to stop hitting him, but she grabbed a decorative cross from the wall and began to strike Slater with it. Slater said he began to cry and left the home. Police later spoke with Rasmus, who said she told Slater to stop dozing off on the couch repeatedly and then tried to kick Slater out of the house. Rasmus said Slater is the one who grabbed the cross of the wall, and hit her on the back with it.

a personal aide,� she said. Fedor and Deb Bath, a classroom aide who also lost her position, said they worked hard to get and keep their jobs, attending college and earning state certifications for part-time posts offering only 25 hours of work per week. They warned that learning support students won’t get the help they need, especially as class sizes grow, thanks to the closing of Lyndwood Elementary School and the decision not to replace some retiring teachers. They also said eliminating the classroom aide positions could put the district at risk of failing to fulfill mandatory “Individual Education Plans� drawn up for each special education student Podczasy said the district would bring back any needed aides, but also said the IEP requirements can be fulfilled through the personal aides assigned to students. Layoffs in Hanover Area, as in other Luzerne County districts, were prompted by major

shortfalls as they crafted budgets for 2011-2012 after Gov. Tom Corbett’s deep cuts in state aid. When Hanover drew up a preliminary budget at the start of the year, it had nearly $3.5 million more in spending than income. By the time the final budget was passed in June, total spending was $1.2 million less than last year. Along with closing Lyndwood and cutting classroom aides, savings were made by eliminating two assistant elementary school principal positions, two high school professional employee positions and seventhand eighth-grade sports. Teachers agreed to a pay freeze and there were reductions in coach salaries, sports, school supplies and field trips.

KINGSTON – The Wyoming Valley West School Board approved a $174,740 contract to repair the flood-damaged high school gym floor during an emergency meeting Tuesday morning. The contract was awarded to Miller Flooring, based in West Chester. The work will be covered by insurance, Superintendent Chuck Suppon said. The floor was ruined after a July 3 deluge sent water cascading down the mountain into Plymouth with such force it moved boulders and tumbled a truck onto its roof. Estimates pegged the rate of rainfall at as much as 4 inches in 45 minutes. The high school was spared such dramatic damage, but water got into the gym and through the top flooring, settling in a gap under the boards and forcing them to buckle. In order to get repairs finished in time for the start of fall sports, the district got the OK from the state to treat the repair as an emergency, allowing the board to bypass state laws requiring a district to advertise for sealed bids for any project exceeding $10,000. The board convened Tuesday’s meeting for the sole purpose of approving the contract

so the work can get under way quickly. Suppon said the work includes installation of fans designed to keep the space immediately under the floorboards dry. The fans will be connected to humidity sensors. If moisture rises above a certain level, the fans will turn on to keep the plywood underneath the playing surface dry. Suppon said the fan system only added “a few thousand dollars� to the total cost. The board is considering other repair and improvement work, particularly on a retaining wall behind the high school that

was damaged by the flood waters. The damage poses no immediate threat to an adjacent parking area. Repairs could approach $1 million. And the board is mulling the idea of installing a sump pump system in the school, Suppon said. The system would automatically kick in and pump water out of the building if it started overwhelming passive drainage systems. The board has not made a decision on that option.

fter enduring a four-month period dealing with a brain tumor, Janice Pickett died at the Hospice Inn of St. Peter’s Hospital in Albany, N.Y., in the early morning hours of Sunday, July 17, 2011. Prior to that, with the generous support of family and friends, and with the professional and most competent care of nurses and aides from Community Hospice of Columbia-Greene, Janice was able to remain at home until the end was near. Many in the Greenville-Westerlo, N.Y., area will remember Janice as a competent Realtor, as Mrs. Claus during the Christmas season, as a happy clown and doting grandmother, and a presenter at Old Timers get-togethers over the years. Many will also remember Janice for her active involvement with the United Methodist Church of Greenville & Norton Hill. She served as a Lay Leader, a member of the Caring Team, the Hospital Calling Team, the Monday Morning Prayer Group, the Administrative Board, and the Program Council. Janice was a Sunday School teacher, a lay reader, and a member of the choir. Janice was preceded in death by her son Paul Pickett; and her parents, Harry and Lucy Pahler Sabatura. Janice is survived by her husband, Fred Pickett; son Eric (Lori) Pickett of South Westerlo, N.Y.; grandchildren, Nicholas, Erica, Christopher and Emily; brother, Richard (Marie) Sabatura of Shavertown; nieces and nephews, Brian (Kelly) Sabatura of Trucksville; Nicole (Justin) Pekarski and son, Blake, of Plains Township; Jennifer (James) Smith of West Brandywine; Sarah (Mike) Pannaccili and Richard Joseph Pickett. A memorial service will be at noon Saturday at the United Methodist Church of Greenville & Norton Hill. Those who wish may donate to

the Pastor’s Discretionary Fund of the church, PO Box 599, Greenville, NY 12083; or to Community Hospice of Columbia-Greene, 47 Liberty St., Catskill, NY 12414. Hooray for Hospice! Among the nurses and aides who made a somber period of time flow as gently as possible were Maggie, Adessa, Agnes, Georgia, Jane, Jenny and Kelly. Thank you to Dr. Frank Fera, who guided Janice through a maze of difficulties over the years, and a most special thanks to Dr. Daniel Kredentser, whose care and counsel during two episodes of ovarian cancer were invaluable, and who was at her side the day she died. Those who visited during the last few months will have vivid memories of Tico, a pint-sized Chihuahua, who became Janice’s constant companion and protector. Woe to anyone who dared to approach too closely! The Rev. Thomas Carney can attest to this. Finally, to dear cousin Eileen and husband Louis Conte, who shared a lifetime of joys and sorrows with Janice, and who were in her thoughts to the end, thanks for a thousandth time.

West Side CTC passes tentative budget to keep school open By JANINE UNGVARSKY Times Leader Correspondent

PRINGLE – The West Side Career & Technology Center will open for the school year with no sports, no recruitment program and no in-school suspension monitor, but it will at least open, if the latest version of the school’s final budget is approved. The school’s joint operating committee voted 13-2 Tuesday to pass the $6.08 million spending plan that saves the school $191,598 by suspending the school’s sports programs, eliminating the 2-year-old recruiting program and redistributing the duties of the in-school suspension monitor to other staff. The sports and recruiting programs

had been sticking points in previous attempts to pass a budget when the school’s entire operating board was convened last week for the first time in decades. The budget will now be sent by ballot to the full operating board. The committee voted to send it by certified mail and require a reply by July 26. The joint operating committee is composed of three members from each of the Dallas, LakeLehman, Wyoming Valley West, Northwest Area and Wyoming Area school boards. The joint operating board is made up of all nine directors from each of those districts, all of which send students to the tech school. Joint operating committee members said the new budget represented an effort at compromise that was necessary because without it, the school can’t legally spend money and would be forced to close.

“I love sports also, but we’re in a situation here. We have to pass this budget,” said committee President Butch Rossi, adding that he thinks eliminating the recruiting program is a mistake. “But getting this budget passed so the kids are ready for the school year is the most important thing.” Calling it a suspension of the sports program instead of an elimination of the five tech school sports means that the board will re-evaluate sports in February 2012 and consider adding them back if the funding situation permits, even as soon as the spring, Rossi said. With sports at the school suspended, tech school students are eligible to go out for the teams in their sending districts, though committee members noted that not all would make the teams. Wyoming Valley West representative Gordon Dussinger urged

his colleagues to ask their coaches and athletic directors to make every effort to include the tech athletes, while Dallas representative Karen Kile asked that the tech school’s athletic director work up a plan for intramural games for students who either don’t want to play for their home district or don’t make the team. The change also has implications for the home districts, where the change in the population of student athletes could change the school’s Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association division. While the matter wasn’t discussed at the meeting, officials from at least one district said they anticipate their sports program will be affected. Wyoming Area Superintendent Ray Bernardi and directors John Bolin, Dave Alberigi and

“After 2 weeks my blood sugar went from 180 to 112 and stayed there!”

Heart Surgeon Hails Breakthrough “Antioxidant” Diabetic Drink As ‘A Miracle’!

Naturally improves blood sugar, cholesterol, circulation, energy and more in as little as 2 weeks!

There is good news and it comes in the form of a ‘fizzy’, drink called OPC Factor™, which quickly revitalizes your entire body and mind!

Better Blood Sugar The ‘miracle’ equals a powerful blend of all natural super antioxidants called oligomeric proanthocyanadins, or OPCs, including powerhouses like grape seed, green tea, pine bark, and red wine extracts, along with lemon bioflavonoids, resveratrol, and 23 naturally occurring vitamins and enzymes. H e a r t surgeon and Medical Director of the Heart, Diabetes, and Weight Loss Centers of New York, Dr. Fred Vagnini, MD, FACS confirms that “Antioxidant therapy may slow down the progress of pre-Diabetes.”

"OPC Factor™ has helped lower my glucose levels. I sleep better and have more energy and better circulation,” says Charles Leavitt of Louisiana. “Excess sugar in your blood causes oxidation and inflammation which is a contributing factor to slow sticky blood. Additionally, cellular damage leads to eye, kidney, nerve, heart, and blood vessel damage. OPC Factor™ greatly improves blood circulation which promotes faster blood flow; crucial for diabetics,” states Dr. Vagnini.

No More Horse Pills to Swallow! “Pills and tablets have absorption rates as low as 2 to 20 percent,” says Dr. Vagnini. OPC Factor™ is the first 100% organic formula powered by a revolutionary, high-speed Isotonic ‘liquid’ delivery system. It mimics the body’s pH; having the same pH levels as blood and tears, the nutrients readily absorb at amazing rate of 97%!

Results in Minutes! Actual blood scans taken twenty minutes apart show how OPC Factor™ virtually flushes away free radicals, excess cholesterol crystals and sugar molecules in the bloodstream.

National Health Institute Proves It! “I can feel it when I drink it. It gives a lot of energy.” says Ken Murdock. A National Institute of Health funded “Double Blind” clinical study published in July, 2008, supports customer claims about energy. For diabetics, energy equals better sleep, moods, and overall balance. Studies have found that free radicals produce oxidation that disrupts insulin sensitivity. OPC FactorTM works 2050 times better than traditional antioxidants against oxidation. OPCs enhance insulin’s ability to lower blood sugar. David Payne, a diabetic from Texas, echoes this, "Since taking OPC Factor, my blood sugar is easier to manage. It boosted my immune system and even helped my cholesterol." Unhealthy Blood Before

“I started taking OPC Factor and approximately a week after, I went back and had my blood checked. My blood sugar had dropped from about a 180 down to a 112. I had been having back problems and it seemed to resolve that. I like the taste. The taste is very pleasant. It has helped my overall health. The thing that I've noticed the most is the lack of back pain. I've just felt good this past year.” rejoices Doyle Allen, ID.

Goodbye Brain Fog! A surprising benefit of the OPC FactorTM formula is the mental clarity and energy many users experience after just a few days. Why? “The brain is over 90% fat making it a perfect place for nasty free radicals to hide. Healthy Blood After

Washes away blood sludge by eliminating toxins, free radicals, and even parasites!

They hitch a ride in your blood stream and are transported into your brain where they create havoc. The free radicals affect your brain health by oxidizing the fatty tissue.” remarks Dr. Vagnini. The result of these OPC’s penetrating the blood brain barrier and quenching the free radicals is quite astounding. It’s possible that after just one week of drinking OPC FactorTM you’ll feel more awake and mentally energized. You’ll experience sharper thinking and improved concentration. “My doctor said, "I don't know what you're doing, but keep doing it." says Teresa Wood, from WA.

OUR OPINION: PUBLIC INPUT

Share your hopes for Moon Lake

M

AKE YOUR VIEWS known next week about Moon Lake Park – Luzerne County’s infinitely promising yet partly closed and potentially endangered piece of paradise. You and other area residents can supply suggestions on what to do with the outdoor recreational spot during an evening meeting on July 28. Organizers of the public session in WilkesBarre intend to draw up a master plan for the park’s use, perhaps the first such blueprint since the place officially opened 40 years ago. The park’s double Olympicsized pool and its campground have been idle for one-and-a-half summer seasons, the result of Luzerne County’s budget quandary. Officials closed the entire park in January 2010, then opted a few months later to allow visitors back in, albeit on a limiteduse basis: No overnight camping. No swimming. No boat rentals. Vandals reportedly have targeted its environmental center since then, stealing copper wiring. No doubt, other park amenities, such as an empty lakeside house, have fallen into disrepair, too. It’s a sorry state of affairs for what should be a first-rate refuge for area families seeking relief this July from fast-paced living and sweltering temperatures. The park in Plymouth Township features a 48-acre lake, surrounded by some 600 acres of woodlands and fields. Moon Lake Park is secluded. Serene. Special.

PA R K P L A N N I N G Offer input about county-owned Moon Lake Park during a public session at 6 p.m. July 28 at Luzerne County’s Emergency Management Agency building, 185 Water St., Wilkes-Barre.

Now a revival movement, of sorts, might be under way to restore its facilities, boost its visitation and ensure its maintenance. First, a master plan must be completed so that the park can vie for state grants and other assistance. That’s a stark reversal from only a few years ago, when a panicked commissioner trio in search of new revenue sources seemed prepared to lease the park’s land for natural gas exploration and allow lake water to be siphoned for drilling. Granted, some people still consider Moon Lake a boondoggle – an unnecessary use of taxpayers’ money. They, too, should speak out. Sell its land to the highest bidder, or donate it to the state park system. Or, perhaps, conserve its pristine beauty and play it up as a bird-watching destination. Or maybe develop trails for increased mountain biking. Partner with a college’s environmental studies program and use it for science. Scout camp? These – as well as your ideas – merit discussion and consideration. But most everyone probably can agree on one thing: Moon Lake Park deserves better than its current status, nearly forgotten and slowly falling to pieces.

QUOTE OF THE DAY “There will be tough days ahead. I have no illusions about the challenges.” Marine Gen. John Allen The new U.S. commander in Afghanistan officially took control of the war there earlier this week, succeeding Gen. David H. Petraeus, who is leaving to head the CIA. Allen inherits a nearly decade-long conflict that has cost the lives of at least 1,668 American troops.

OTHER OPINION: TALISMAN TERRY

Keep kids out of fracking fracas

F

OR TWO YEARS, Talisman Terry, the “friendly Fracosaurus,” had it made in the natural gas shade. As the cartoon mascot of Canadianbased energy company Talisman Energy, Terry starred in a 24-page children’s coloring book extolling the benefits of hydraulic fracturing. His optimistic demeanor and laid-back attitude made him the perfect spokes-critter for the controversial extraction process. It was kiddie propaganda in the worst sense of the word. But like all bad ideas, someone thought it was a good idea at the time. When word finally got out that Talisman Energy was using a coloring book to per-

suade kids that drilling in the Marcellus Shale formation was “smart, safe and American,” critics of “fracking” pounced. Comedy Central’s Stephen Colbert mocked the coloring book in a segment on “The Colbert Report.” Talisman Energy was not amused. The company quickly pulled the book from circulation and killed the download link on its home page. Whatever one’s opinions about the merits of fracking, we should all agree that attempting to brainwash kids into siding with the industry is a bad idea deserving of ridicule.

No room for ideology in real world of budget talks OUR COUNTRY is facing a crisis – and it’s not only about our $14.5 trillion national debt, a record-high national deficit or the impasse over the looming debt ceiling situation. We are without a true leader in the White House at a time when we need one most, and that deficiency is overshadowing all others. Republicans and Democrats will not be able to work together, make difficult decisions and lead our nation out of this financial abyss until we have a president who is willing to remove the ideological sunglasses and view the situation realistically. Fourteen million people are out of work. Those fortunate enough to have jobs fear they are one bad economic forecast away from the unemployment line. Small business, which has created 64 percent of all new jobs in the last 15 years, is stymied by the threat of higher taxes and increased government regulations, spending and debt. President Obama believes raising the debt ceiling without substantial cuts in government spending is the way to go. History has proven otherwise. The $800 billion stimulus did not create jobs, did not convey a sense of financial security for the middle class, nor provide an impetus for small business to invest and expand. A bloated federal government squeezes out private investment. Tax increases thwart business expansion, stifle job creation and lead to deeper cuts in employment. It’s time for the president to put reality before his vision of what a perfect society should look like. We need a leader who has the courage to make difficult, but necessary, decisions, the maturity to embrace his circumstances and the humility to accept reality and stop clinging to a cherished ideology.

MAIL BAG

U.S. REP. TOM MARINO We need a leader who will allay the worries of our most vulnerable: senior citizens and the disabled who survive on Social Security, and the members of our military. Instead, he has preyed upon their fears, using them as pawns in his Chicago-style, game of politics. This is unacceptable and disappointing. It is sad that President Obama, who rode the mantra of hope and change to the Oval Office, offers neither at this critical crossroads. He conveys a sense of hopelessness and fear, and stubbornly refuses to change his direction to meet the needs of the nation. A true leader does not walk away from his responsibilities when the going gets tough. A true leader does not try to get his way by scaring people. A true leader does not insult citizens by acting as though they are not smart enough to understand the situation. The truth is, the average American understands the severity of our economic situation all too well. Many of my constituents in the 10th District wake up every morning and make the difficult decisions about what expenditures to cut from the family budget. It’s not easy to tell your child that you can’t afford to go to an amusement park this summer or to buy a new backpack for school, or to ask your teenager to choose a less expensive college. Because they are making these tough choices, we owe it to them to do the same in Washington. President Obama made it obvious that he demands compromise while offering none. He insists on tax increases and when he didn’t get his way during last week’s talks, he left the room, the childhood equivalent of

taking your ball and going home. To many observers, this gridlock might appear to be the result of a clash of two political viewpoints. It might have started out that way. But the severity of our economic crisis has surpassed philosophical differences. It now comes down to pragmatism versus idealism. When we are in a state of prosperity, we have the luxury of basing governmental decisions on ideology: Expand government programs or downsize; increases taxes or reduce them. But, our national debt is the equivalent of $45,000 per person or $127,500 per taxpayer. There is no room for ideology. Regardless of our viewpoints, our future – and that of our children and grandchildren – is in jeopardy unless we all put aside our political aspirations and get down to work in Washington. The fiscal crisis could turn catastrophic if we do not cut spending, reduce the size and scope of Washington, and keep taxes low. Raising the debt ceiling is inevitable. Raising the debt ceiling without comparable spending cuts and a balanced budget amendment is irresponsible. President Obama is correct when he states that he did not lead us into this financial mire. But he is our leader and the American people need him to start acting like one. He promised hope and change, and Americans are desperately seeking both right now. U.S. Rep. Tom Marino of Lycoming Township in Lycoming County represents the 10th Congressional District. For information, visit http://marino.house.gov.

Barletta, Marino: ‘Cut, cap and balance’ not symbolic Both GOP congressmen reaffirm commitment to lowering the nation’s debt.

and other leaders back to the White House for meetings in coming days. Obama, Boehner and other top leaders met last week for five days straight without reaching agreement, leading to warnings from credit agencies about dire consequences if the U.S. defaults on its obligations for the first time, rendering it unable to pay its bills. Obama added his own warning Tuesday, saying that while financial markets have shown confidence thus far in Washington, it won’t last much longer if lawmakers fail to act.

The House approved the bill Tuesday night 234-190, largely along party lines, but the measure appears dead in the Senate, which is working on several bipartisan compromise debt ceiling plans. “Nothing is symbolic for me.

It would raise revenues by about $1 trillion over 10 years and cut popular benefit programs like Medicare and Medicaid — dealing out political pain to Republicans and Democrats.

Musto Carroll said police are investigating whether Madry and the driver were at an underage drinking party prior to the crash. Authorities have not yet determined if charges will be filed against the driver pending the results of an accident reconstruction report and toxicology tests, she said. “It’s a tragedy when we have a young person die in a motor vehicle accident involving alcohol,” Musto Carroll said. “We see this all too often. We try to educate kids the best we can, but it’s inevitable we have car accidents.

is the “balanced approach” Obama has urged, though it’s rejected by many Republicans because it would require higher taxes for some. Rep. Dave Camp, Republican chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, said the spending cuts and budget mechanisms in the plan could form the basis of a deal but tax increases would be a big problem for him and fellow GOP lawmakers. “A trillion dollars is a lot, by any measure,” Camp said of the tax increases in the plan. While praising the broader plan, Obama said it was still important to have a “Plan B” option being worked on by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell as a fallback. The McConnell-Reid plan

Barletta, R-Hazleton, struck a similar note in an interview outside the House chamber Tuesday. “The cut cap and balance is what I came to Congress for,” Barletta said. “Eighty percent of the American people want us to balance the budget. When we talk about taking care of our children and grandchildren, this is what will do it,” he said. Barletta said he is against a plan being worked on by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, DNev., and Senate Minority Lead-

would give Obama the ability to raise the debt limit by $2.5 trillion in three installments over the next year without a separate vote by lawmakers. Instead, a panel of House and Senate members would be created to recommend cuts in benefit programs, with their work guaranteed a yes-or-no vote in the House or Senate. While all that was going on behind the scenes, advocates of the “cut, cap and balance” legislation said it would cut spending by an estimated $111 billion in the next budget year and then by more than an additional $6 trillion over a decade — and require Congress to send a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution to the states for ratification — in exchange for raising the debt limit by $2.4 trillion. With the measure facing a veto threat

er Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., which would allow the president to raise the debt ceiling in increments in exchange for spending cuts, though at $1.5 trillion considerably lower than the trillions of dollars that would be cut under the House GOP proposal. “I don’t like the McConnellReid plan,” Barletta said. “I equate it to when we were small and we played hot potato. We’re just passing it to someone else. We came here to fix America’s problems and passing a balanced budget is how we make sure we never do this again.”

from the White House, Boehner said he was exploring other alternatives to avoid government default. “I do think it’s responsible for us to look at what Plan B would look like,” he said at a news conference a few hours before the opening of debate on the legislation backed by conservative lawmakers. Said Obama: “The problem we have now is, we’re in the 11th hour, and we don’t have a lot more time left.” On a day of political theater, a group of House Republicans also boarded a bus for a 16-block ride to deliver a letter asking Obama to disclose his own plan for reducing federal deficits. No administration officials met the delegation when the bus rolled up to the White House gates, and lawmakers gave copies of the letter to reporters.

Madry was an honors student at Crestwood, where he played lacrosse. He was set to enter his senior year in the fall. Sally Shipierski, a parent who was picking her children up from a field hockey camp at the high school Tuesday, said she was shocked by Madry’s death. “I don’t have the words to describe it. It’s surreal,” said Shipierski, of Rice Township. “Everybody’s just in complete shock. We’re trying to absorb what happened.” Crestwood High School Principal Chris Gegaris said the school had not set up any grief counseling sessions as of Tuesday afternoon, but was prepared to provide support for any student who seeks it. “We are prepared to deal with the situation if a student should call and need help,” he said. Andrew Brodginski, a classmate of Madry’s, has set up a page on the social networking site Facebook in memory of Madry, “R.I.P Brian Madry.” Brodginski announced on the page that a memorial service for Madry will be held today from 5 to 6 p.m. at the Wright Township Park. Anyone who knew Madry is asked to attend the service to sign a book and write about any memories they have of him. The book will then be presented to his parents prior to his viewing.

Dallas Twp. negotiations with pipeline company at impasse

Williams Field Services can’t agree with township about zoning, land development. By SARAH HITE shite@timesleader.com

DALLAS TWP. – The township solicitor announced Tuesday ongoing negotiations with Williams Field Services LLC, a company proposing to construct part of a natural gas pipeline and a metering station within the township, have come to an impasse. Solicitor Thomas Brennan said negotiations with the company to agree upon zoning and land development issues concerning parts of the 33 ½-mile Springville Gathering Line, which would transport gas from wells in Susquehanna County to the Transco interstate pipeline near the Dallas School District campus, “haven’t happened.”

He said the company plans to file a petition with the zoning hearing board in protest against the township’s requirements for zoning and land development pertaining to pipelines. “It’s a process you go through,” said Brennan. “… It is conceivable the impasse could be broken, but I’m not optimistic at this point.” Township Engineer Thomas Doughton said the company is still pursuing its ongoing work with the township planning commission for its pipeline application, though the need for the process is disputed. Attempts to reach a representative from Williams were unsuccessful. At a June supervisors’ meeting, Brennan said negotiations were underway to settle disputed issues between the company and the township, including whether zoning applied to pipelines and what would be on site

The Wyoming County Planning Commission granted Williams preliminary approval for the construction of a metering station on about 5 acres of land in Northmoreland Township, and company officials said it would be a temporary site until negotiations were finalized in Dallas Township. In other business, the board approved an agreement with Bassler Equipment of Forty Fort for the purchase of more than 100 new street signs in conjunction with the Luzerne County 911 readdressing project and for routine replacement.

Yankees stymied, Nova is injured

Ex-players won’t block a deal

Recently-demoted pitcher leaves game early with ankle injury; offense becomes inept.

Carl Eller represents retired league veterans at labor talks. By HOWARD FENDRICH and BARRY WILNER AP Pro Football Writers

NEW YORK – Hall of Fame defensive end Carl Eller thinks a deal to end the NFL lockout will be reached this week — and says retired players won’t stand in the way of an agreement. Eller and lawyers for retired NFL players joined labor talks for about seven hours Tuesday in New York as signs mounted the dispute might almost be over. After leaving the negotiations, Eller headed to a meeting

By By JARROD ULREY For the Times Leader

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The ineptitude of an offense which failed to advance a runner past second base during the first seven innings doomed Scranton/WilkesBarre to a 6-1 defeat in the second game of a four-game series in Huntington Park. Equally as significant in the loss category was what occurred during the second inning when Ivan Nova was forced to leave the mound with a right ankle injury while attempting to cover first base. CLIPPERS After going at least seven innings in each of his first two YANKEES starts with the Yankees, a visibly disappointed Nova left after pitching just 1 1/3 innings. He gave up a first-inning home run to Jason Kipnis and three hits overall. Nova will be re-evaluated Wednesday. “I took a line drive off my ankle a couple weeks ago and I thought it was fine, but when I ran to first base it hurt,” Nova said. “I was throwing the ball well the last two times I pitched and hopefully I can be ready soon.” One of the few bright spots of the game was the relief pitching of George Kontos. He replaced Nova and tossed 2 2/3 scoreless innings, giving up two hits, walking one and striking out four. It was a positive sign for the 26-year-old right-hander, who gave up four earned runs in 2 1/3 innings during his last outing July 16. He also gave up two home runs and three earned runs overall in one inning July 6. “(Kontos) did exactly what we needed him to do,” SWB manager Dave Miley said. “We weren’t planning to use him that early but it was 1-0 and he kept us in it for a while before we let it get out of hand.” Greg Smith relived Kontos and walked the first batter he faced, Cord Phelps, to open the fifth. Tim Fedroff followed with a double to drive in Phelps and make it 2-0. In the sixth, Smith again had

with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. “They want to get these games going, and they want to have a season. That’s their focus,” Eller said. “Our issues are very, very critical — very imCarl Eller portant — but they don’t really have much to do with whether the game goes on or not.” He said “there’s still a lot more to be done” when it comes to benefits for former players, but that could be resolved after the main dispute is settled. The court-appointed mediator, U.S. Ma-

gistrate Judge Arthur Boylan, also was at the session, his second consecutive day overseeing negotiations. Owners and players were trying to close a deal to resolve the NFL’s first work stoppage since 1987. The NFL Players Association’s executive committee met in Washington on Tuesday to prepare for possible votes on an agreement in principle. Representatives of all 32 teams were supposed to arrive by Wednesday. “The grass is cut, but the hay is not in the barn yet. We’ve got a lot of work to do,” NFLPA president Kevin Mawae said.

Wyoming Valley flavor Back Mountain, Plains make finals

By DAVE ROSENGRANT drosengrant@timesleader.com

BLOOMSBURG – The Wyoming Valley American Legion League continues to flex its muscles in the Region 5 Tournament. When a regional champion is crowned today, the award will go to a WVALL team for the seventh time in the last 10 years. That’s because Plains and Back Mountain eliminated the other two teams in the tourney and will face each other today for the event’s title and a spot in next week’s state tournament at West Lawn. Plains began Tuesday’s action at Central Columbia High School with a 13-9 victory

Plains (19-9) fell behind 3-0 after the first inning, but the team put up three runs in the second and third innings to open a 6-3 lead. The Wyoming Valley runner-up got a huge boost on the mound from James Castellino. The righty came in relief of Dave Marriggi – who only lasted one inning – and threw four shutout innings before allowing four runs in the sixth inning. By the time Green Ridge batter in the sixth, Plains held an 11-3 lead. Castellino picked up the victory going

over Green Ridge to eliminate the District 11 champion. Three hours after Plains’ victory, Back Mountain knocked out Canton, 12-9. The WVALL foes will play for the sixth time this season at 11 a.m. today. Plains must beat the WVALL champions twice to win the regional title. If Plains wins the first game a second game will follow 30 minutes after the conclusion of the first. Back Mountain has won all five previous contests pitting the two against each other. “This says a lot for Wyoming Valley baseball,” Back Mountain manager Tom Evans said. “It doesn’t surprise me because I have See LEGION, Page 4B

PHIL SHERIDAN OPINION

It’s time for Eagles to fly high

IT’S A SHAME, really. This NFL labor war will apparently end before any really serious collateral damage is inflicted or any unexpected positives develop. That’s good news if you’re just looking forward to football season starting on time, but it’s a bit disappointing for those of us who imagined Andy Reid trying to drive his frigate-sized SUV past (through? over?) a picket line of his players on Pattison Avenue. Once upon a time, the Buddy Ryan-coached Eagles became a unified team because of strong leadership through the 1987 strike. Then, it seemed as if Philadelphia was at the center of things. In this spat among lawyers, you haven’t heard a peep from the Eagles. Not from owner Jeff Lurie and not from any of the players. The leaders are elsewhere. Jerry Jones and Bob Kraft and other owners are getting out of limos at the negotiating sessions. Drew Brees and Tom Brady are out front for the players. You only hear from the Eagles when Michael Vick gets a new endorsement deal or DeSean Jackson says something stupid. In the great labor war of 2011, the Eagles are sidelined with flat feet. That may turn out not to matter if, as expected, the whole thing fizzles out this week. For all the chest pounding, courtroom posturing, tweeting, gag orders and cameo appearances by various judges, there will be training camp and preseason games and a full season. Fans will suffer only a minor annoyance, especially since this could have been done a year ago. Only ego and the need to create a deadline prevented that. Kolb trade imminent Seven years ago, the National Hockey League shut down for an entire year. That was a labor war. When it was over, the new roster and salary-cap rules forced teams to shake up their teams in a flurry of trades and signings. Fans who swore they’d never watch another NHL game were dazzled by the shiny objects and immediately forgot why they were angry. The NFL seems poised to follow that example. If this new collective-bargaining agreement is approved by players and owners this week, there will be a day or two for everyone to study the rules. Then the free-agent bazaar will open and teams can rush through, haggling on a cornerback here and bidding on a running back there. For those fans who TiVo the NFL Network’s scouting combine feed and spend weeks preparing to watch the draft, this compressed offseason will be more fun than watching the actual games. The long dormant Eagles can ill afford to sit out this part of the process. Indeed, they have helped foster the public belief that they are going to crash the bazaar, waving a huge wad of bills around. Nnamdi Asomugah? Sure. Reggie Bush? Sounds good. Albert Haynesworth? New defensive line coach Jim Washburn can flip the switch that turns his apathy into effort. Plaxico Burress? He can improve Reid’s recidivism rate and red-zone percentages. Vince Young to replace Kevin Kolb as the No. 2 QB? Why not Steve Young? The Eagles are unlikely to

Three divisions of the Pennsylvania Sire Stakes top a strong sixteen race slate this evening at the Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs. Leading the three-year old trotting fillies to the Plains Township oval is the Noel Daley trained Cedar Dove. Reined by Ron Pierce, the daughter of Andover Hall is just coming into her own again. In her last race back on July 4, at Harrah’s Chester, Pierce fired her out of from the eight post and never looked back, wiring the field in a sharp 1:55.1. She seems to be heading into this race in peak form and I see no one stopping her from winning the seventh race tonight rather easily. BEST BET: CEDAR DOVE (7TH) VALUE PLAY: BOOKEM (1ST)

First-place Pirates keelhaul the Reds The Associated Press

PITTSBURGH — James McDonald and three relievers combined on a six-hitter to help the Pittsburgh Pirates shut out the Cincinnati Reds for the second straight night, 1-0 on Tuesday. McDonald (6-4) won for the first time in five starts, pitching effectively into the seventh inning before getting bailed out of a bases-loaded jam by Joe Beimel and Chris Resop. Joel Hanrahan worked the ninth for his 28th save as the first-place Pirates improved to 7-1 this season against the defending NL Central champions. Mike Leake (8-5) yielded one run in six innings but couldn’t stop the Reds (47-50) from dropping three games below .500 for the first time this season. They trail Pittsburgh by five games. Phillies 4, Cubs 2

CHICAGO — Michael Martinez hit a tiebreaking two-run double with two out in the ninth inning, and the Philadelphia Phillies rallied to beat the Chicago Cubs 4-2 on Tuesday night. Starlin Castro’s two-run homer off Cliff Lee in the first inning held up until Philadelphia chased Matt Garza in the eighth, and Chase Utley tied with a two-run double against Sean Marshall. The winning rally started with a two-out single by pinch-hitter Ben Francisco. Jimmy Rollins drove a hard smash off third baseman Aramis Ramirez’s glove, putting runners on first and second, and Martinez drove them in with a bloop double off Marshall (5-4). Mets 4, Cardinals 2

NEW YORK — Jose Reyes made a huge impact in the field in his return from a hamstring

injury, turning a difficult double play with the bases loaded in the eighth inning after making a diving stop that saved a run, and the New York Mets welcomed back their two All-Stars with a 4-2 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday night. Carlos Beltran also was back in the Mets’ lineup after missing three games with a high fever. He hit two doubles, singled, walked twice and scored a run for New York, all while still very congested. Angel Pagan and Daniel Murphy hit two-run doubles, and Dillon Gee (9-3) pitched seven sharp innings in the Mets’ second win in five games. Lance Berkman hit a mammoth homer and starter Kyle Lohse (8-7) had an RBI single for St. Louis. Padres 4, Marlins 0

MIAMI — Tim Stauffer pitched six innings and four relievers completed a six-hitter to help the San Diego Padres beat the travel-weary Florida Marlins 4-0 on Tuesday night. Ryan Ludwick and Orlando Hudson hit consecutive two-out RBI doubles in the first inning for the Padres, and that was all they needed. Cameron Maybin had two hits, an RBI and a run scored against his former team. Stauffer (6-6) won for the fourth time in his past five starts and lowered his ERA to 2.83. He allowed four hits and two walks but stranded three runners in scoring position. Astros 7, Nationals 6

HOUSTON — Clint Barmes homered and drove in three runs and Michael Bourn added three RBIs to help starter J.A. Happ break a seven-game losing streak in the Houston Astros’ 7-6 win over the Washington Nationals on Tuesday night.

AMERICAN LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Rays put Yaneeks through Hellickson The Associated Press

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Jeremy Hellickson pitched seven strong innings and Tampa Bay took advantage of sloppy New York defense to score two runs that gave the Rays a 3-2 victory over the Yankees on Tuesday night. Hellickson (9-7) retired 13 of 15 batters after giving up a two-run homer to Robinson Cano in the third inning, helping his team stay close until the sputtering Rays offense could finally break through against the Bartolo Colon. Robinson Chirinos and Sean Rodriguez singled, chasing Colon (6-6) with one out in the seventh. That’s when things really awry for New York. Orioles 6, Red Sox 2

BALTIMORE — Jeremy Guthrie allowed two runs in seven innings in an effort that belied his title as the losingest pitcher in the majors, and the Baltimore Orioles beat Boston 6-2 Tuesday night to end a seven-game losing streak against the Red Sox. Derrek Lee and Mark Reynolds hit successive homers in the eighth inning off Alfredo Aceves to turn a shaky one-run lead into a more comfortable cushion for the Orioles, who lost their previous seven games against Boston this season by a combined score of 61-32. Twins 2, Indians 1

MINNEAPOLIS — Danny Valencia hit a two-run single off closer Chris Perez in the ninth inning, sending the Minnesota Twins to a 2-1 victory over the Cleveland Indians on

Tuesday night. Perez (2-5) is in the middle of a solid year but the Twins got to him for a big win. He walked Joe Mauer and gave up a double to Michael Cuddyer. Jim Thome was intentionally walked to load the bases, and Valencia followed with a bloop single. Royals 4, White Sox 2

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Danny Duffy returned from the minors to toss seven sharp innings, Matt Treanor delivered a go-ahead two-run single in the sixth and the light-hitting Kansas City Royals hung on to beat the Chicago White Sox 4-2 on Tuesday night. Melky Cabrera homered and Alcides Escobar drove in the other run for Kansas City, which came into the game batting .196 while scoring a measly eight runs during a recent three-game skid. The anemic output in part prompted manager Ned Yost to call a closed-door meeting a couple hours before the first pitch. Tigers 8, Athletics 3

DETROIT — Miguel Cabrera and Carlos Guillen each hit a two-run homer in Detroit’s six-run fifth inning, and the Tigers beat the Oakland Athletics 8-3 on Tuesday night. The Tigers trailed 3-1 before they grabbed control in the fifth against Guillermo Moscoso (3-5). After Magglio Ordonez brought Detroit to within a run with a sacrifice fly, Cabrera hit his 20th homer of the season, putting the Tigers ahead to stay. It was his 600th career extra-base hit.

LOCAL ROUNDUP

Abington National in states By JOSH HORTON For The Times Leader

ARCHBALD – Abington National brought a relentless offensive attack to Archbald Athletic Complex Tuesday night. It rallied for 19 runs in just four innings to earn the 19-1 victory over Kingston/FortyFort. With last night’s win, Abington National advances to the Little League State Tournament in State College. Abington National took advantage of being the away team by exploding for six runs in the first. It batted around the order in the first inning. Each of the first six hitters reached base safely and eventually scored. Kingston/Forty-Fort got on the board in the bottom of the first when Sean Judge demolished a ball way over the left field fence. But Abington National never slowed down. In the top of the second inning, Abington National extended its lead to 10-1. Ryan Harvey led off the inning with a double to right-centerfield. Sam Arnold and Matt Hughes then crushed back-to-back homers. Later in the inning Eric Brickel added to the Abington power surge with a solo shot of his own to left-center field. The offensive train kept rolling in the third inning. Abington National extended its lead to 17-1 before the inning ended. The inning was highlighted by a three-run shot off the bat of Tony Sallavanti. The homer came in his first at bat since entering the game. Collin Huggler then added a two-run blast in the top of the fourth making it a 19-1 ball game. Judge led Kingtson/FortyFort with the team’s only two hits and made some great plays in the field. Hughes was terrific on the mound for Abington National. He pitched a complete game allowing just one run on two hits. He struck out four and walked just one.

WEST SIDE TOURNAMENT 8-9 BASEBALL

Back Mountain Royal 11, South Wilkes-Barre 5

Sam Nocito, Alex Magdalinski and Todd Phillips combined to strike out 10 batters and allowed four hits as Back Mountain Royal won the West Side tournament championship. Nocito, Magdalinski, Justin Finarelli, Brandon Fleschut and Cooper Lewis all had two hits for the winners. For South Wilkes-Barre, David Casper tripled and Anthony Macko doubled. Ryan Maffei and Blake Bynon chipped in with singles, respectively.

TOMMY’S PIZZA CORNER 9-10 BASEBALL Bob Horlacher 7, Hanover 1

Mike Lee earned the win on the mound and knocked in a pair of runs in Bob Horlacher’s victory. Cole Coolbaugh went 3for-3 with two RBI and Robert Phillips scored twice for Bob Horlacher.

WILKES-BARRE REC 9-10 BASEBALL

Kingston/Forty-Fort 11, Back Mountain National 5

five innings, giving up five hits and four runs. Plains’ offense was paced by designated hitter Julian Martinez, who went 3-for-4 and drove in four runs. “James Castellino came in and pitched his heart out for five innings and having him pitch those strong innings really propelled us to victory,” Plains manager Don Stark said. Back Mountain (23-4) also gave up a three-spot in the bottom of the first and was down 3-0 before scoring four in the top of the second to go ahead 4-3. Canton scored three more times in the third to stake a 6-4 lead. Back Mountain went ahead for good plating three in the seventh and four more in the eighth. Most of the players who started for Back Mountain in every postseason game were given the day off on Tuesday.

POKER

Chips falling to the younger generation The Associated Press

LAS VEGAS — Four bustouts within the first hour at the World Series of Poker on Tuesday left the main event with its final two tables, and four more eliminations soon after put the tournament close to determining the final table that will compete for an $8.7 million top prize. Ten eliminations through the first 41⁄2 hours of play left the nolimit Texas Hold ‘em tournament with 12 entrants as players took a two-hour dinner break — three busts from perhaps the biggest bubble in cardplay. Four twenty-somethings from four different countries — Ireland, Costa Rica, the Ukraine and the United States — moved beyond the threshold of chips needed to have an above-average stack at the

Phelps knocked in Hernandez with a single to left to stretch the lead to 5-0. Kevin Whelan took over for Smith in the sixth and allowed a leadoff homer to former Yankees slugger Shelley Duncan for the Clippers’ final run.

Owners, meanwhile, are set to hold a special meeting in Atlanta on Thursday, when they could ratify a new deal. Executives from all 32 teams then would be briefed there Thursday and Friday on how the terms would affect league business. Clubs were told topics would include the 2011 NFL calendar, rookie salary system and guidelines for player transactions. Goodell and NFLPA head DeMaurice Smith planned to stay in regular contact.

final table, easing some of the pressure even as opponents looked to pick up chips. The chip leader, 26-year-old Eoghan O’Dea of Dublin, had more than 36 million in chips at the break, while 21-year-old Ukranian Anton Makiievskyi and series Player of the Year leader Ben Lamb each had more than 27 million in chips. John Hewitt, 23, of San Jose, Costa Rica, had about 26 million in chips. While those short on chips looked for hands to gamble with in hopes of doubling their stacks, the leaders maneuvered to try to put themselves in better position to avoid being eliminated 10th or 11th. Lamb, a 26-year-old poker professional from Oklahoma who recently moved to Las Vegas, picked

off an extra 4 million chips from Matt Giannetti on a board showing possibilities of a flush and a full house. Lamb had a set of deuces after playing the pot with a deucethree, among the worst starting hands in Texas Hold ‘em. Giannetti waited nearly 10 minutes before calling, then mucked his two pairs, aces and nines. Aleksandr Mozhnyakov, a 25year-old Russian who recently graduated from law school, was eliminated in 19th place at the beginning of his eighth card session, forcing the18 remaining players to redraw for seats at one of two tables left. He was short on chips and gambled the last of them with a suited king-queen. He was called by Sam Barnhart with an ace-10, and the community cards improved neither player’s hand.

The Yankees scored their only run in the eighth when Austin Krum walked and Mike Lamb doubled him in. “(Lamb) had some hamstring problems but he’s back and that’s what we got him for,” Miley said. “He’s a veteran and he’s been swinging it well.” The Yankees put together little else offensively. In the third, Doug Bernier reached on an error and Krum was hit by a pitch but Greg Golson grounded out to end the inning. Krum reached on a two-out single in the fifth and Jordan Parraz got on with a two-out single in the sixth, but neither runner ad-

On Tuesday, lawyers for the NFL and the players suing the league submitted a joint filing to the court, asking for an extra week to file written arguments “to allow them to focus on the continuing mediation.” Tuesday’s request, which was granted in the afternoon, noted that “the parties have also been meeting regularly since April 11, 2011, in an effort to resolve their disputes.” Also pending is the TV networks case, in which players accused owners of setting up $4 billion in “lockout insurance.” Another issue said to be stand-

Because there was no salary cap that season, the old collective bargaining agreement said NFL teams weren’t required to pay those benefits. On a separate matter, a proposal under consideration would set up nearly $1 billion over the next 10 years in additional benefits for retired players. That would include $620 million in pension increases, long-term care insurance and disability programs. Retired players complained to the court recently that they had been excluded from negotiations, which is why Eller’s presence was significant. “We weren’t happy, and we

Colonels men’s team adds two new players The Times Leader staff

The Wilkes men’s basketball team has announced the addition of two players, as forwards Cameron Hinkel and Michael Sharpe will join the Colonels for the 2011-12 season. Hinkel, a 6-foot-3 wing from Millerstown and Greenwood High School, was a third-team Class A All-State selection as a senior. He averaged 15 points and seven rebounds and earned first-team all-conference honors. “Cameron can do a little bit of everything on the basketball court,” Rickrode said in a school release. “In addition to being able to score in a variety of ways, he plays extremely hard, rebounds well and is a tough defender.”

ton in the Rockets’ first game under Kevin McHale and without Yao Ming, and Oklahoma City will visit new coach Mike Brown and the Lakers to conclude the opening-night schedule. Most teams begin Nov. 2, with LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh starting their second season together on the Heat and facing a Knicks team led by Carmelo Anthony and Amare Stoudemire. Also, Golden State hosts the Lakers in its first game under rookie coach Mark Jackson. No.1pick Kyrie Irving would make his pro debut that night when Cleveland visits Boston. The first meeting between the Mavs and Heat since Dallas’ sixgame victory in the finals highlights the Dec. 25 schedule. The Celtics visit the Knicks to open the tripleheader and the Lakers welcome the Bulls in the nightcap. The Mavs play in Miami for the first time since clinching their first title on March 29. The schedule was released much later in the summer in recent seasons while the NBA was waiting for the completion of free agency and trades to see what other marquee matchups could be

grams in the country, including Alabama and Tennessee. His initial choice was Stanford, which developed the nation’s most heralded college quarterback in Andrew Luck. But Mornhinweg reopened his recruitment when coach Jim Harbaugh left the Cardinal for the NFL to take over the San Francisco 49ers. Mornhinweg becomes Penn State’s first quarterback recruit since Rob Bolden picked the Lions in July 2009. Bolden and Paul Jones both came aboard for the 2010 recruiting class, one year after Kevin Newsome came to Happy Valley. Before that, Penn State hadn’t landed a scholarship quarterback since Pat Devlin in 2006. West Scranton’s Matt McGloin came to the team as a preferred walk-on in 2008. hope it doesn’t go back to that. We hope we stay active in the talks and we hope we continue to have meaningful talks. This clearly lets us know there’s more work to be done,” Eller said. “It’s certainly something we want to keep going and continue the dialogue, continue to work until we have some kind of a solution.” Owners locked out players on March 12, when the old collective bargaining agreement expired, leaving the country’s most popular professional sports league in limbo. The sides are trying to forge a settlement in time to keep the preseason completely intact. The exhibition opener is supposed to be the Hall of Fame game between the St. Louis Rams and Chicago Bears on Aug. 7. The regular-season opener is

Hailing from Saylorsburg, the 6-5 Sharpe played at Pleasant Valley High School and recorded 13 points and five rebounds per game as a senior. Sharpe also was a first-team all-conference selection in his league. “Michael has a great upside and played extremely well down the stretch of his high school career,” Rickrode said. “He has the ability to score in the post as well as being able to step out and stretch the defense.” Wilkes returned to the postseason a year ago, qualifying for the Freedom Conference tournament before losing to eventual league champion Delaware Valley in the semifinals. The 2011-12 season tips off in November.

created. This time, with all transactions and most other league business on hold, there was no reason to wait. It’s unclear what would happen to the schedule if the season is delayed, though it would likely depend on when a deal gets done. The 1998-99 season didn’t begin until February, forcing an overhaul that limited teams to 50 games. If a deal is completed in time to save the entire season, other interesting games include: • The first meeting between Dallas and Los Angeles since the Mavs ended the Lakers’ two-year title reign on Dec. 15 in Dallas. • Anthony’s return to Denver with the Knicks on Nov. 16. • Deron Williams first game back in Utah with the Nets on Jan. 14. • Brown’s first game in Cleveland since the Cavs fired him after consecutive 60-win seasons on Dec. 21. • The Magic and Nets playing a pair of games at the O2 Arena on March 7-8, the second straight year the NBA is staging regularseason games in London ahead of the 2012 Olympics. The All-Star break is scheduled for Feb. 24-26 in Orlando. The regular season ends April 18, with the Nets hosting the Bulls in their final game in New Jersey before moving to Brooklyn for the 2012-13 season. That uneven spacing has created some headaches at the position for the Lions as of late. But the coaching staff managed to keep all four quarterbacks – Bolden, Jones, McGloin and Newsome – on the roster despite Bolden and Newsome intending to transfer in the offseason. With little guarantee that all four will play out their entire college careers at Penn State, however, landing a solid quarterback in this recruiting class was important for the Lions. Thanks to the direction of his father – who has been a football coach since 1981, including the past 16 years in the NFL – Skyler Mornhinweg will be one of the more polished quarterbacks to arrive on campus in recent years. As a junior at Prep, Mornhinweg topped 1,500 yards passing and threw 13 touchdowns. Entering his third season as the team’s starting quarterback, Mornhinweg had more than 3,000 yards through the air with 32 scores. scheduled for Sept. 8, when the Super Bowl champion Green Bay Packers are to host the New Orleans Saints. The four-month lockout has resulted in pay cuts for non-playing employees around the league, and economic hardship for cities, like Cortland, N.Y., that hosted training camps in the past but won’t this year. On Tuesday, the lower-level UFL — which had been hoping to start its season in the void created by a lack of NFL preseason games — announced it is delaying its season start to mid-September, a blow for a league that has lost $100 million in only two years. During lengthy negotiations last week, NFL owners and players came up with the framework of a CBA that addresses most of their differences.

Retiring goalie Osgood as it gets LSU violations lead to NCAA probation

The Associated Press

DETROIT — After more than 400 wins and three Stanley Cups, Chris Osgood figures he has nothing left to prove. The occasionally-maligned goaltender who eventually earned the admiration of Detroit’s passionate fans announced his retirement Tuesday, ending a career in which he helped the Red Wings to two championships as a starter and another as a backup. Although he was often overshadowed by his talented teammates, Osgood accomplished enough to start an interesting discussion about his Hall of Fame chances. “It means a lot to me,” he said. “I feel like I do deserve to be there. It’s never easy playing goalie for any team in the National Hockey League.” The 38-year-old Osgood will remain with the Red Wings, helping scout and develop young goalies. Osgood played only 11 games last season as a backup to Jimmy Howard, and he was sidelined after undergoing sports hernia surgery in January. “I feel as if I can move on,” he said. “I’m excited about my future as to what I’m going to do with the organization.” Osgood’s retirement leaves Detroit searching for a backup goalie. The Red Wings recently re-signed Joey MacDonald to be the team’s No. 3 goaltender, and general manager Ken Holland said they will likely add another goalie by the end of the week. Osgood won his first Stanley Cup in 1997, his fourth season in the league, as a backup to Mike Vernon. The following season, he was the starter when the Red Wings won their second straight title. Osgood’s Hall of Fame case is based on his 401 career wins — he’s 10th on the NHL’s career list — and his performance in the postseason. He went 74-49 in the playoffs with a 2.09 goalsagainst average. He ranks fourth

in league history with 15 playoff shutouts.

He was the No. 1 overall pick in the 2008 draft.

Tampa Bay Lightning TAMPA, Fla. — The Tampa Bay Lightning has signed star center Steven Stamkos to a five-year contract. Team vice president and general manager Steve Yzerman announced the deal Tuesday. The 21-year-old Stamkos was a restricted free agent. The team did not announce the terms. The Markham, Ontario, native played in all 164 games during the previous two seasons for the Lightning, leading the NHL with 96 goals. He has also recorded 186 points and 41 power play goals while averaging more than 20 minutes of ice time per game during that span. Last season Stamkos registered 45 goals and 91 points with 17 power-play goals.

New Jersey Devils NEWARK, N.J. — After missing the playoffs for the first time since 1996, the New Jersey Devils have turned to Peter DeBoer to get them to the back to the postseason. It’s a simple assignment, but seemingly an odd choice by Devils president and general manager Lou Lamoriello. The 43-year-old DeBoer spent the past three seasons as the coach of the Florida Panthers and was fired in April after failing to lead them to the playoffs during his tenure. Lamoriello wasn’t concerned about DeBoer’s qualifications on Tuesday after ending a nearly four-month search to find a replacement for Jacques Lemaire, who went back into re-

tirement after the season ended. Lamoriello insisted that DeBoer was one of the best young coaches in the business, and his three seasons with the Panthers only made him a better coach. “Coming out of junior, he was the most highly sought after junior coach,” Lamoriello said. “But I also know from experience there is a transition and when you go through a transition, you make mistakes. If you are intelligent and admit them and learn from them, you can only be a better coach and better person.” Lamoriello began courting DeBoer after the season ended and the two stayed in touch over the 15-plus weeks since the season ended. DeBoer said he knew Lamoriello considered others for the coaching job and he remained patient.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — LSU committed major violations while recruiting a junior college football player, but won’t be slapped with any postseason bans or future scholarship reductions, the NCAA ruled Tuesday. The governing body decided to place the school on probation for a year and cited a former assistant coach for unethical conduct. The investigation found that ex-assistant coach D.J. McCarthy improperly arranged for transportation and housing for former defensive lineman Akiem Hicks in 2009, then later tried to cover up those actions. The NCAA accepted LSU’s self-imposed reduction of two scholarships during the 2010-11 academic year, as well as a 10 percent reduction in official visits and reductions in recruiting calls. LSU already had begun reducing official visits during 2010-11, but the NCAA expanded the punishment to include 2011-12. McCarthy resigned in December 2009. Hicks never played for the Tigers before he left LSU. NCAA Committee on Infractions chairman Dennis Thomas said LSU’s violations all were considered “major.” Yet he stressed that punishment could have been more severe if not for the efforts of LSU’s compliance department to discover and report the violations, and to cooperate with subsequent NCAA inquiries. “The committee really felt that the LSU compliance staff and institution did an excellent job, and that they assisted the

(NCAA) enforcement staff in the investigation regarding these violations,” Thomas said. He pointed specifically to Senior Associate Athletic Director Miriam Segar, who became suspicious of Hicks’ living arrangements from the time he arrived in Baton Rouge. According to an earlier LSU report on the matter, Segar spent weeks pressing for answers and made the decision to bar Hicks from traveling to LSU’s 2009 season-opening game at Washington because she was unsatisfied with the information she had received. “That was critical,” said Thomas, who is also the commissioner of the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference. “If that had not been done, the institution could have really been under more severe and serious penalties as well.” LSU chancellor Michael Martin said the university does not plan to appeal. LSU has a lot of key players returning and is a popular pick to contend for Southeastern Conference and national titles.

TOUR DE FRANCE

He’s not a champ to sports company

Contador climbs back into contention

Steelers Mendenhall sues Champion over recent loss of his endorsement deal. By TOM BREEN Associated Press

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Pittsburgh Steelers running back Rashard Mendenhall is suing the parent company of the Champion sports apparel maker, calling the decision to drop his endorsement deal over his tweets about the death of Osama bin Laden and the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks a breach of contract. Mendenhall’s lawyers filed suit Monday in U.S. District Court in North Carolina, seeking roughly $1 million in damages from Hanesbrands, Inc., the Winston-Salem-based corporate parent of Champion. The complaint says Champion’s decision to end its endorsement deal with Mendenhall in May, days after he questioned the public celebration of bin Laden’s death, violates a contract extension the two parties signed in 2010, worth over $1 million. Mendenhall first signed a deal to endorse Champion products when he entered the league in 2008. “For Rashard, this really is not about the money. This is about whether he can express his opinion,” said Steven Thompson, a Chicago-based attorney representing Mendenhall. A spokesman for Hanesbrands did not return a call seeking comment by early Tuesday afternoon. But legal experts said Mendenhall may have a difficult time proving his case. “An athlete contracts away his free speech rights in signing his endorsement deal,” said Jeffrey Standen, a sports law professor and associate dean at Willamette University College of Law in Salem, Ore. “What the sponsor is buying is the athlete’s name and image, and their name and image are related to public behavior and opinions.” Shortly after bin Laden was killed by a team of Navy SEALs, Mendenhall tweeted, in response to scenes of euphoria around the U.S., “What kind of person celebrates death? It’s amazing how people can HATE a man they have never even heard speak. We’ve only heard one side...” He also tweeted on the Sept. 11 attacks: “We’ll never know what really happened. I just have a hard time believing a plane could take a skyscraper down demolition style.” The comments prompted significant anger, leading to a clarification by Mendenhall and a separate statement by Steelers team president Art Rooney II distancing the organization from Mendenhall’s remarks. But his number of Twitter followers nearly doubled to around 37,000 within a few days of the tweets. Hanesbrands’ decision to drop the Steelers star was likely a “kneejerk reaction” made within 48 hours of the tweets, Thompson said. “Morals clauses” are commonly invoked when an athlete’s behavior makes the wrong kind of headlines. Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick lost endorsement deals after revelations about his participation in a dogfighting ring, and Tiger Woods was dropped by some of his sponsors following the disintegration of his marriage over accusations of serial infidelity.

GAP, France (AP) — Defending champion Alberto Contador caught his Tour de France rivals by surprise with a brash climbing attack Tuesday, gaining time on leader Thomas Voeckler during a rainy 16th stage won by Thor Hushovd. Contador burst from a pack in the final climb of the 101-mile course from Saint-Paul-TroisChateaux to Gap. Among the other big title contenders, only Cadel Evans of Australia could keep up.

It has been a major gap, much bigger than I expected.” Voeckler expects to give up the yellow jersey before the race ends Sunday in Paris. “I kept it by a handful of seconds, but that shows that I’ve hit my ceiling,” he said. Hushovd led a three-man breakaway to win a stage for the second time on this Tour. Fellow Norwegian Edvald Boassen Hagen was second and Hushovd’s Garmin-Cervelo teammate Ryder Hesjedal was third. Hushovd, a veteran star sprinter, showed off his new talents when he won Stage 13 over a big

Baltimore Orioles’ Cal Ripken talks to his son Ryan before a spring training game in 2001. Today, Ryan Ripken is a highly-touted high school baseball player who is already fielding scholarship offers from several college coaches.

Another Ripken on the way? Cal Ripken’s son following in dad’s famous footsteps

By DAVID GINSBURG AP Sports Writer

BALTIMORE (AP) — Cal Ripken Jr. was never pushed to play baseball by his father. The Iron Man adopted that same philosophywhenbringinguphisownson. TurnsoutthatRyanRipken,like his dad, grew to love baseball. And, just like his father, he’s pretty darn good at the game. Ryan Ripken has been selected to play in the 2011 Under Armour All-America Baseball Game, which will be held next month at Wrigley Field in Chicago. Over the first three years of the game, 88 of the 103 draft-eligible players who competedinthegamewereselected in the Major League Baseball amateur draft — including18 first round picks. Ryan batted .353 as a junior at GilmanHighSchoolandisalready fielding scholarship offers from several college baseball coaches. Sure, his father is proud. But if Ryan chose to drop baseball for basketball, or opted to abandon sports completely, his dad wouldn’t mind one bit if the run of Ripkens in the majors ends at two generations. “Iwanthimtobehappy.Ifhederives the same sort of happiness that I did from baseball, he wants to pursue that and continue to play, then I’ll be happy for him,” Cal said Tuesday in an interview with The Associated Press. “But quite honestly, I want him to choose something that he’s happy in, and it doesn’t have to be baseball by any means.” Cal Ripken Sr. was a coach and manager in the Baltimore Orioles organization for nearly four decmight have had with the developing Kolb. The coach and the team are, and should be, back to the Pass/Fail status that prevailed during Donovan McNabb’s last seven seasons. Reid changed defensive coordinators after last year ended with another Fail. He is now obliged to give Juan Castillo some talent to

CalJr.lovedhangingaroundthe Orioles clubhouse as a kid and enjoyedplayingthegame.Ryangrew up under similar circumstances until his father retired in 2001. Ryan stuck with baseball, but not because he was pressured by his notable dad. “I let him gravitate to whatever he wanted to do. That’s what my dad did to me,” Cal said. “Certainly the exposure that you get being in professional baseball is exciting and different for the kids. Some kids really like it and some don’t. Ryan was 8 years old when I retired.Heenjoyedbeingaroundthe clubhouse and then he just started pursuing it.” Ryan received plenty of instruction from Cal about the finer points of the game, but nothing could prepare him for what’s it’s like to have the last name of Ripken and playing baseball in Baltimore. “There are some positives associated with that, but in many ways there’s a burden that comes with the last name,” Cal said. “I think a lotofpeoplesortofexpectalotout of him. When kids are learning to play the game we make mistakes. We all grow from our failures. Sometimes it doesn’t seem like Ryan is afforded some of those failures. It’s almost like he feels the pressure,hefeelsthescrutiny.And he’sdonearemarkablejobofhandling it — because he has to.” At 6-foot-6, Ryan is now taller than his father. He’s a standout on work with. A legitimate starting cornerback, at least one impact defensive lineman and some security at safety aren’t options. They’re basic necessities if Castillo is going to have a chance. The Eagles, like most relatively smart teams, prefer to build through the draft and use free agency only when exceptional

I don’t think I can keep up. He’s got too much range on his shot and he’s a good player. He’s also taken great pride in the fact he’s passed me in height.” Ryan, who turned 18 on Monday, has focused on baseball this summer. Being selected to play in the All-America game is no small accomplishment. “It’s a great honor to be named to this team with all of these terrific players,” Ryan said. “The game is prestigious, and the thought of playing at Wrigley Field and representing Baltimore and my teammates at Gilman is exciting.” Described as “tall and lanky” by his father, Ryan doesn’t yet possess the power of Cal, who had 431 career homers. But he plays a solid first base and still has room to develop his swing. “He’s got easy power with his bat. His home runs haven’t really caught up to his easy power, but I remind him that I hit zero home runs in my first pro season,” Cal said. No matter. Regardless of what Ryan ends up doing, his father won’t be disappointed. “It’s his life. He doesn’t have to do anything in baseball to make me proud. I’m proud of him already,” Cal said. “So it’s totally his choice. My dad’s philosophy was, It’s your life, you have to make choices in your life. And Ryan’s going to be given the full freedom to make the choice his. “I know a lot of people find it hard to believe. They think that I would push, push, push, push. But I honestly, deep inside, it doesn’t matter to me.”

players become available or a hole must be plugged. They are in the position of having to plug so many holes, though, precisely because they haven’t drafted well enough on the defensive side.

OMAHA, Neb.— With the NFL working to end its lockout and save the preseason, the struggling United Football League announced Tuesday it would push back the start of its games from August to September. The schedule switch is another blow — at a critical time — to the second-tier pro league that has lost more than $100 million in its two years of existence. The UFL had hoped to gain exposure in the vacuum left by a locked-out NFL. It scheduled several early-season games on Sundays and aimed to fill television time slots normally reserved for NFL exhibition games. But Commissioner Michael Huyghue told reporters he was resigned to losing a “windfall” from the NFL. “It seems nonsensical for us to play on Sundays when the NFL is there,” Huyghue said. “The only reason we did it was we hedged our bet and felt confident the labor situation was going to invade the traditional preseason, and that might be inducement for networks to want to fill that void with a high-quality football product. That is not the case.” The UFL has franchises in Omaha, Hartford, Conn., Norfolk, Va., Las Vegas and Sacramento. The league is made up of players who were cut in NFL training camps, veterans who want to get back to the NFL and free agents. Players earn about $40,000 a season. Even with the delayed start, the plan is for each team to play eight regular-season games, Huyghue said. This is considered a make-orbreak year for the UFL, whose majority owners are Bill Hambrecht, Paul Pelosi and Bill Mayer. Huyghue said the league projected that it would lose money the first three years. But the $100 million in losses so far is considerably higher than Huyghue had reported previously. There also are $6 million in unpaid bills from UFL vendors. Huyghue said he twice recommended that the league suspend operations, in January and again last month. But he said each time the owners told him they believed in the UFL’s mission and were committed to funding the league’s $50 million budget for this season. tentially explosive offense, this is the perfect time for a spending spree that shores up the defense. The Eagles time is now, which is why the Eagles must move Kolb if they’re able to get any kind of value. He won’t be a promising young man for much longer and a reliable backup can be found somewhere in the bazaar.

The commissioner said the UFL’s longterm survival depends on bringing in new investors and landing a Huyghue TV contract. He unsuccessfully negotiated with CBS and TNT in recent months. The best-case scenario would be for the NFL to come on board as a partner, he said. Huyghue said he had unsuccessfully approached the NFL the past two years about a partnership or a commitment to use the UFL as a developmental league. Asked if he would try again, Huyghue said, “If the labor situation got solved on Thursday, I probably would be in their office on Friday. It’s a natural fit. We’re going to need a more powerful support behind us to assist with television and sponsorship.” If the UFL became a developmental league in the mold of the old NFL Europe, Huyghue said, the UFL would be willing to play in the spring or fall or a combination of the two. The NFL and UFL have had a “cordial” relationship, Huyghue said. Last season each 52-man roster included an average of 24 players with NFL experience. NFL teams signed about 60 UFL players last season, assigning them to either the active roster or practice squad. “Our owners don’t want to get out,” Huyghue said. “They want a system of support so they’re not shouldering all the financial burden themselves.” UFL games were shown on HDNet and Versus last year, with the league paying production costs for Versus’ telecasts. The league also spends about $9 million for workers’ compensation insurance and an additional $2 million on chartered flights and hotels, Huyghue said. The emergence of the Omaha Nighthawks as a signature franchise gave the UFL hope it could find its niche. The team averaged about 23,000 fans for its four home games last season with a roster featuring NFL veterans Jeff Garcia and Ahman Green and former Ohio State star Maurice Clarett. Clarett is set to play for the Nighthawks again this season along with Nebraska’s 2001 Heisman Trophy winner, Eric Crouch. The UFL is hoping to avoid the fate of other upstart pro football leagues that failed. “You can only tell people you’re doing your best,” Huyghue said. “The only crystal ball I have is the message I get from the owners, and they are supportive.”

While other teams have been active in the process of ending the lockout, the Eagles say they have been quietly preparing to spring into action when it counts. It’s the dead of summer, but spring time is almost here. Phil Sheridan is a sports columnist for The Philadelphia Inquirer

Then came another lock to win a major, simply by the experience he has been close call a year later in the gaining, even if it’s the kind he’d British Open.

As happy as he was for one of his best friends winning the Open, part of Westwood had to be asking, “When will it be my turn?” Twice in the last four years, he missed out on a playoff in the majors by one shot. He had the 54-hole lead at the Masters last year and was beaten by better golf from Phil Mickelson. Westwood kept getting better to the point that he reached No. 1 in the world. But still no major. “Lee has done everything he can do to get himself into contention to win,” Clarke said. “Unfortunately, he’s had guys that have played better than him on quite a few occasions, or they’ve had the bounce of the ball or things going their way. Right now, things haven’t gone his way, but I’m sure that they will go his way because he’s too good a player to not go his way.” True. But the same could have been said of Colin Montgomerie. He won a record eight money titles on the European Tour. He twice got into a playoff at the majors, losing both of them. Then came what appeared to be a Clarke-type moment at Winged Foot in 2006 when Montgomerie, at age 42, had a chance to win a U.S. Open. From the middle of the 18th

rather forget. But hard knocks also raise questions. There was that atrocious start at Pebble Beach last year on his way to an 82, his dubious twoshot penalty on the final hole of Whistling Straits last year at PGA Championship when he didn’t realize he was in a bunker, and that 2-iron on the 14th hole of Royal St. George’s on Sunday. Surely, he’ll figure it out soon. But wasn’t that also said of Sergio Garcia? Garcia had it far more difficult, playing in an era when Woods was winning majors just about every year. The Spaniard is only 31, although it seems as though he’s been around much longer because he has been in the mix at majors so much. As a 19-year-old rookie, he nearly came from behind to catch Woods at Medinah. He played with Woods in the final group twice more in majors, and when Woods wasn’t around, Garcia found another nemesis while losing two majors to Padraig Harrington. A dozen years after he roared onto the scene, Garcia still hasn’t won the big one. And this year, his game reached a point that he was happy just to be playing in the last two majors. And then there’s 38-year-old Lee Westwood.

“We have to see a rebound in job creation to sustain a recovery in housing.” Jennifer Lee Senior economist at BMO Capital Markets

B R I E F

Debt progress lifts shares Strong profits and a bipartisan plan to lift the U.S. debt limit drove a stock market rebound Tuesday. Stock indexes rose after Coca-Cola, IBM and other companies reported better second-quarter earnings. The indexes added to their gains in the afternoon after President Barack Obama backed a proposal by six senators that would cut debt by $3.7 trillion over the next decade and raise the country’s $14.3 trillion debt ceiling. The Dow Jones industrial average had its largest one-day jump this year. Bank stocks were mixed. Wells Fargo & Co.’s profit soared 30 percent to 70 cents per share on stronger results from lending. The bank’s stock gained 5.6 percent. Both Bank of America Corp. and Goldman Sachs Group Inc. fell after posting disappointing results.

Apple sales, profits soar Apple says results trumped expectations for yet another quarter, with iPhone and iPad sales setting new records. Net income in the fiscal third quarter, which ended in June, was $7.31 billion, or $7.79 per share. That’s more than double the $3.25 billion, or $3.51 per share, a year ago. Analysts polled by FactSet were expecting earnings of $5.82 per share. Revenue was $28.6 billion, up 82 percent from $15.7 billion a year ago. Analysts were expecting $24.8 billion. The results were lifted by the sale of 20.3 million iPhones, millions more than analysts had expected. IPad sales came in at 9.25 million units, also above analyst expectations.

Deal for Southern Union Natural gas pipeline company Southern Union Co. on Tuesday agreed to be bought by Energy Transfer Equity for $5.7 billion, topping a bid from rival Williams Cos. The cash-and-stock offer works out to $44.25 per share. The deal is worth a total of $9.4 billion, including debt. Energy Transfer Equity LP and Williams Cos. have been battling for Southern Union, based in Houston, for over a month. Last week Williams offered $44 per share. Southern Union’s tie-up with either company could bring close regulatory scrutiny because of the size and similarity of their businesses. Energy Transfer says it will sell some businesses to satisfy regulators.

Sales, profit rise at Harley Harley-Davidson Inc.’s U.S. sales rose almost 8 percent and its profit more than doubled in the second quarter, the first time since the end of 2006 that domestic sales have increased for the motorcycle maker. Consumers felt more confident and wanted to upgrade to new bikes. On top of that, the brand has the largest share of sales when it comes to new kinds of bikers such as women, blacks and people under 35. The company is also expanding its market share overseas.

Breaking ground Home building jumps in June after dismal spring

W

By DEREK KRAVITZ

AP Real Estate Writer

ASHINGTON — Builders broke ground on more single-family homes and apartments in June, helping the battered construction industry gain a

little life after a dismal spring. The Commerce Department said Tuesday that builders began work on a seasonally adjusted 629,000 homes last month, a 14.6 percent increase from May.

Still, that’s roughly half the 1.2 million homes per year that economists say must be built to sustain a healthy housing market. Jennifer Lee, a senior economist at BMO Capital Markets, called the gains “just a blip in the overall flat-lining trend of homebuilding activity.” “We have to see a rebound in job creation to sustain a recovery in housing,” she said. Much of the increase in June came from a surge in apartment construction, a volatile part of the industry.

That sector jumped more than 30 percent last month. Renting has become a preferred option for many Americans who lost their jobs during the recession and were forced to leave their rapidly depreciating homes. Since 1992, apartments have typically made up just 20 percent of home construction. Now, they make up closer to 30 percent of the market. Single-family home construction rose 9.4 percent. It was the biggest increase since June 2009, when the re-

More companies looking to invest than hire, survey shows By JILLIAN BERMAN Bloomberg News

WASHINGTON -- More companies hold an optimistic outlook toward investing in new equipment than hiring, a survey showed, another sign the labor market will struggle to improve. Fifty-four percent of companies said they will boost capital spending over the next 12 months, compared with 43 percent that plan to increase payrolls by the end of the year, according to results of a poll taken last month by the National Association for Business Economics. Respondents also scaled back forecasts for economic growth as sales and profits cooled. “The economic landscape is weakening and the recovery is softening” Shawn DuBravac, chief economist for the Consumer Electronics Association in Arlington, Va., who analyzed the report, said in a statement. “Sales

growth remains positive for the majority of firms responding,” he said, “but that majority is now smaller than it was last quarter.” The report combined with slowing payroll gains shows employment will be slow to recover the 8.75 million jobs lost as a result of the recession, raising the risk that household purchases will weaken further. A report last week showed retail sales stagnated last month. The index of the outlook for investment in new equipment and software over the next year, which reflects the difference between those planning increases and decreases, climbed to 50, seven points higher than in the last survey issued in April. The measure of capital spending projects already initiated last quarter rose to 36, the highest level in more than five years.

cession officially ended. But analysts said the pace of 453,000 homes per year was still too depressed to signal a turnaround. “The underlying trend of singlefamily housing starts shows no signs of improving in a significant manner anytime soon,” said Joshua Shapiro, chief U.S. economist at MFR Inc. Building permits, a gauge of future construction, increased 2.5 percent. Home construction rose in every part of the country. The biggest gains in single-family home construction were in the Midwest and South, which saw extensive damage from tornadoes and flooding this spring. In the Northeast, the overall building pace spiked 35.1 percent. Newhome sales fell in May to a seasonally adjusted pace of 319,000 homes per year. That’s far below the 700,000 homes per year that economists consider healthy. One reason is that previously occupied homes are a better deal than new homes.

By JORDAN ROBERTSON AP Technology Writer

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — The personal computer industry needs a jumpstart — and it’s counting on a rescue from emerging markets and a late-to-the-party push into tablet computers. The U.S. and European PC markets have entered a dangerous new phase: Fewer people are buying new PCs because of economic anxiety, market saturation and the rise of new gadgets such as Apple’s iPad. More signs of strain are expected as PC makers and their component suppliers begin to disclose quarterly earnings this week. The PC is still the backbone of the digital world. More than 1 million PCs are sold every day, and the industry is bigger than ever. But market research firms IDC and Gartner Inc. said last week that PC shipments worldwide grew at just over 2 percent in the second quarter, short of both firms’ expectations. “New competition for PC manufacturers makes it just really, really hard to make a profit,” said Sarah Rotman Epps, a Forrester Research analyst who has studied the evolution of consumer technology. As a result, PC makers are looking to emerging markets to boost sales. The new strategy was evident at Intel’s recent investors’ conference, where the company’s CEO, Paul Otellini, unveiled a map that identified where PC growth is expected to be strongest in coming years. Otellini gestured toward places such as Brazil, Russia, India, China — the socalled “BRIC” countries — as well as Mexico, Venezuela, the Czech Republic, South Africa and Turkey. All are expected to experience double-digit percentage growth.

NYC fires shot at Silicon Valley By SAMANTHA GROSS Associated Press

NEW YORK — Mayor Michael Bloomberg is firing a shot across the bow of Silicon Valley, saying New York City’s efforts to attract a new science and engineering campus will help the metropolis surpass the California region as the world capital of technology startups. “We understand that we will not catch up to Silicon Valley overnight,” Bloomberg said Tuesday in a speech to the business community. “Building a state-of-the-art campus will take years — and attracting a critical mass of technology entrepreneurs may take even longer.” But, Bloomberg said, he believes that in its first three decades the school could help launch 400 new companies and create more than 22,000 permanent jobs, as well as more than 7,000 construction jobs. The city plans to offer nearly free real estate and up to $100 million in

infrastructure upgrades to a university, institution or consortium that commits to creating what Bloomberg says will be a world-class science and engineering campus, to be built on Governors Island, the Brooklyn Navy Yard or Roosevelt Island. The city’s formal request for proposals was issued Tuesday. Stanford and Cornell universities and the University of Chicago have expressed interest in the deal, as have schools in Finland, India, Switzerland, Korea, the United Kingdom and Israel. Additionally, some institutions have formed partnerships as they consider the deal. One such group is made up of New York University, Carnegie Mellon, the City University of New York, the University of Toronto and IBM. New York City is the No. 2 recipient of venture capital funding for technology startups, after surpassing Boston last year, Bloomberg said.

Don’t abandon your long-term plan. Most investors who had diversified portfolios in 2008 and stuck with them have made up their losses – even though the S&P 500 fell 57 percent from its peak in October 2007 to the market bottom in March 2009. Investors who pulled money out of stocks have found it tougher to recover.

How do you prepare for a financial disaster that may not happen? That’s the question for investors as the Aug. 2 deadline approaches for Washington to raise the government’s borrowing limit or risk a U.S. default on its debt. Economists say a default could create a crisis similar to what happened after Lehman Brothers went bankrupt in 2008. Stocks crashed and the credit markets froze. What you should and shouldn’t do if you’re getting anxious while the deadline approaches:

Be wary of bonds. Investors who flee to bonds to avoid the volatility of stocks could get burned. A default could drive up the cost of government borrowing for years to come. That would lead to higher interest rates for everyone. If that happens, bonds would lose value because their prices move in the opposite direction from rates.

Remember that rebalancing can be risky.

Watch for buying and selling opportunities.

Avoid selling in a panic. If you pull money out of stocks now, you could miss a “relief rally” if Congress and the White House make a deal to raise the borrowing limit. And if your timing is right and stocks do fall, you’ll need to be right a second time – and get back into stocks before they start rising again. But if you’ll need your money in the next year or if you’re worried about losses, then yes, you may want to sell some stock.

If stocks fall as the deadline approaches, it may be a good time to look for bargains. You also might want to consider selling stocks that would be hurt if big cuts to government spending are part of an agreement on the borrowing limit. Goldman Sachs told investors last week that some companies get at least a fifth of their revenue from government contracts. Among them: health care providers and defense contractors.

So far this summer we've had four days at or above 90 degrees. The hottest day was June 8 with 92. As the hot weather pattern this week spreads east, we can expect to see at least three more 90 degree days with the hottest day likely to be Thursday. Temperatures then will range from 94 to 99 here in town. Friday could be almost as hot. Factor in the humidity and the heat index, or how hot it feels, the temperature will rise to between 100 and 105. Any storms that form today and tomorrow will be few and far between. The excessive heat will probably last through the weekend with our next chance for any relief not coming until Tuesday.

CHEF’S CORNER RAY FEIST RUSTIC KITCHEN AT MOHEGAN SUN

Shrimp and lobster tail brushed with chive butter tastes great on the grill.

Grilled pizza cooks in a flash, so make sure to have your toppings ready.

Direct heat draws out and caramelizes fruit, making the grilled variety perfect for dessert.

GRILL SPARKS

Toppings spice up bratwurst

Summer is a great time of the year to be outside. We naturally appreciate it, because we are locked up inside for many months in these parts. Plus, it’s too hot now to turn on the oven and cook. When the family comes over, fill up the tank of propane or purchase some charcoal. I’m not telling you to make your own sausages because I know it’s a lot of work. But many stores sell quality bratwurst, Italian or Polish sausages and they even can be purchased online. The bratwurst is the sausage of Germany, traditionally flavored with ginger, nutmeg, coriander and caraway. Don’t let any of these flavors scare you away. Most of the brats you find today are made to please our American palates. For maximum enjoyment, remember, what makes any sandwich is the bread. Support your local bakery and splurge on some fresh rolls. Call up the family and, well, act German. You can grab a case of cold ones or switch it up and make a batch of Mojitos or – my favorite – some mint juleps. Remember, always keep your family close but hold on to your bratwurst even closer. Here are some toppings to dress up the sausages:

Go beyond the basics with fruit, pizza, veggies

e routinely toss our favorite burgers, steaks or chicken breasts on the fire. Or we slap a fillet of fish on a piece of foil, close the lid and call it a meal. Fellow grillers, it’s time to put some spark in your repertoire. The fear of failure has even been documented in Weber’s annual GrillWatch survey: People admit they’re challenged by grilling fish, shellfish, pizza, fruit and desserts. The only way around it is to face your fears.

If you love pizza indoors, you’ll find the outdoor version super easy, quick and just as tasty. (You can even grill your toppings right next to the crust.) The smoke of the grill enhances the natural sugars of vegetables from asparagus to zucchini. Onions and red bell peppers taste sweeter; eggplant and mushrooms taste heartier. Grilled lettuce, anyone? If you’re shy about cooking a whole chicken, butterfly it for even, quick cooking. It’s a perfect option for feeding a crowd because you can put several on the grill at once. Fish is delicate but great on the grill, and it’s really a snap to cook the fillets without the foil. Or splurge on lobster tails and shrimp, which look and taste impressive but couldn’t be simpler. And don’t forget to top off a great grilled meal

with the caramelized sweetness of fruit kissed by flames. ••• BUTTERFLIED WHOLE CHICKEN Why: A whole bird cooks evenly and quickly when butterflied, and it’s a good way to feed a family or a crowd. Several grill as easily as one. The basics: Remove the giblets and keep for another use. On a cutting board, place the chicken breast side down. Using poultry or heavy-duty kitchen shears, cut along each side of the backbone and remove. Flip the chicken over so it’s almost flat. Press down firmly to crack the breastbone and so the whole chicken lies flat. Recipe for success: You can marinate the chicken any way you like, or try brining it. Mix See SPARKS, Page 2C

NEPA grillers talk secret recipes, tricks of the trade By SARA POKORNY spokorny@timesleader.com

Jim Hargrove, 43, of Ashley, is no stranger to grilling. He’s done it all – steak, chicken, pork, venison, all in different marinades and rubs. But he found it was the simplest of tricks that makes his mouth water. “I put butter on a burger once and that was it,” he said. “No going back.” Hargrove spreads a light coat of butter on both sides of the hamburger patty, then puts the patties in the fridge for a half hour. He grills them on low heat, four minutes on each side. “Flip them only once,” he said, “and don’t press down or it’ll take the flavor out.” He also lightly butters the inside of the hamburger buns, placing those on a low-heated grill for 30 seconds. “It’s an easy way to keep the burger moist, without loading it down with a lot of extra flavoring.” Chicken is another grilling stand-by that can be kept moist with another See GRILLERS, Page 2C

1 pound prepared sauerkraut 8 strips of bacon, diced 1 apple, diced 1 ⁄4 cup white onion, diced Render the diced bacon in a sauté pan. When it looks good and brown, add the onions and cook until translucent. Add the apple and sauerkraut and cook for another five minutes. Let cool and then top your bratwurst.

BRUCHETTA TOPPING 3 ripe tomatoes, diced 10 leaves of basil, shredded 1 teaspoon fresh garlic, minced pinch of black pepper Need something to do with those tomatoes you been stealing from the neighbors garden? Combine all ingredients and you’re good to go. You may need to add some salt depending on your taste. Salt will bring out excess water in the tomatoes so you may want to use a slotted spoon with this one.

RELISH 1 cup of your favorite pickles 1 tablespoon minced red onion 1 ⁄4 cup of hot pepper, fresh or jarred 1 ⁄2 red pepper, diced juice of one lime If you have a food processor, add all ingredients and buzz. The goal is to combine all ingredients but still leave them chunky. Without a food processor, chop all solid ingredients and place in a bowl. Add the lime juice.

GRILLING TIPS

Local grillmasters share favorite marinade recipes By SARA POKORNY spokorny@timesleader.com

One thing we found among our local grill masters is that they’re all drawn to a good, flavorful marinade, as opposed to a rub. They were kind enough to share the best ones they’ve come across for you to enjoy.

SPICY VENISON MARINADE (via Jim Hargrove) Ingredients: 1 can tomato sauce 1 can of beer 2 dashes cayenne pepper 2 dashes onion powder 1 tablespoon black pepper 6-inch skewers Sliced green peppers, tomatoes, and

mushrooms Directions: Cut venison into bite-size chunks. Mix tomato sauce, beer, cayenne pepper, onion powder, and black pepper together in large bowl and add venison chunks to bowl, fully coating them with marinade. Let sit overnight. Slice green pepper, tomato, and mushroom into pieces suitable to fit on skewer. Place those, along with marinated venison chunks, on skewer. Use the marinade from the bowl to lightly coat the vegetables. Turn grill to low heat. Place skewer directly on grill for three minutes, then turn over and grill an additional three minutes. Serve as appetizer.

PINEAPPLE MARINADE (via Annie Sweitzer, originally found on about-

.com, works best with pork or chicken) Ingredients: 1 cup crushed pineapple 1/3 cup soy sauce 1/3 cup honey 1/4 cup cider vinegar 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 teaspoon ginger powder 1/4 teaspoon powdered cloves Directions: Mix all ingredients together and let meat marinate overnight. Grill as desired.

ZESTY BARBECUE MARINADE (via Dan Maker, originally found on allrecipes.com) Ingredients: 1 cup barbeque sauce 1/2 cup steak sauce 1/2 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle beer

1/2 cup whiskey 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 2 tablespoons crushed garlic 2 tablespoons seasoned salt 2 tablespoons ground black pepper 2 tablespoons dried minced onion 1 tablespoon dried basil 1 tablespoon dried oregano 2 tablespoons habanero hot sauce 3 teaspoons curry powder 2 tablespoons red pepper flakes 2 tablespoons brown sugar Directions: Mix all ingredients in large bowl. Cover the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish with approximately half the marinade. Place desired meat in the dish, and cover with remaining mixture. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator at least 6 hours before grilling.

Cook the bratwurst or sausages over medium heat. If the grill starts to flare up, move them away from the flames. They usually cook between 10-15 minutes depending on the size. Remember to let them rest for 5 minutes before diving into them or you risk the chances of the flavorful juices running out of them and right down your shirt.

Corn cooked on the grill is a tasty alternative to the stovetop.

SPARKS Continued from Page 1C

1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup kosher salt in 12-16 cups water (depending on the size of the chicken). Place the chicken in the brine for about 3 hours. Rinse well after removing from the brine. To cook, preheat the grill to medium-high. Place the chicken bone side down on the grates, cover the grill and grill about 45 minutes or until thoroughly cooked through. If desired, brush with favorite barbecue sauce during the last 10 minutes of grilling. Remove from the grill and let rest about 15 minutes before slicing. ••• FRUIT Why: Direct heat draws out and caramelizes the natural sugars. Serve grilled fruits on their own as a dessert, or pair them with a main dish or savory foods like tangy cheeses or fresh herbs. Pineapples, papayas, avocados, peaches, plums and nectarines are great for this. Apples and pears also hold up well. To grill bananas, cut them in half with the peel still on. Avoid overly ripe fruit because it will become too soft. The basics: Preheat or prepare the grill for medium heat. Clean and oil the grates. Cut the fruit in half and remove seeds or pits. For pineapple, remove outer skin if desired and then cut the pineapple in half lengthwise and remove the core. Slice into 1-inch-thick pieces. For round fruits, grill the halves or slices big enough so they don’t fall through the grates. Brush with canola oil and grill, cut sides down, until nice grill marks ap-

pear. Turn and grill until the fruit is just softened. Recipe for success: Have ready nectarines, papayas, peaches or plums. Melt 1/2 cup apricot preserves mixed with about 2 tablespoons canola oil, stirring until smooth. Brush over the fruit and grill as above. For a surprise, add feta cheese to the centers of the fruit and heat until the cheese is warm. Or serve grilled stone fruits with a dollop of Greek-style yogurt or a drizzling of balsamic glaze. For the glaze, heat 1/31/2 cup of balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan until reduced and syrupy, about 10 minutes. ••• PIZZA Why: Thin pizza dough grills in a flash. “Any toppings are great, but sometimes just brushing the dough with a good flavored oil will make a delicious, chewy addition to a salad, ribs or whatever you’re cooking,” Sam Zien, author of “Sam the Cooking Guy: Just Grill This!” (Wiley, $19.95), says in an email. The basics: A baking sheet without sides is great for moving pizza around on the grill. For one pizza, use 1/2 pound dough at room temperature and form it into an 8-inch, free-form shape. Preheat the grill to medium. Brush one side of the dough with olive oil and place the oiled side down on the grill. Oil the side facing up. Grill about 5 minutes or until it’s lightly browned and grill marks appear. Turn over, add toppings, close the lid and grill about 4 to 5 minutes or until the cheese melts and the second side is done. Recipe for success: For a grilled veggie pizza, have all your toppings sliced and ready in advance. Start grilling zucchi-

ni, eggplant and red onion before putting the dough on the grill. Stretch or roll the dough and put it on the grill when the veggies have been cooking for several minutes. When the dough is cooked, top the pizza with the veggies and shredded Italian-blend cheese. ••• VEGETABLES Why: Grilling brings out the sweetness of many vegetables, especially red bell peppers, zucchini and onions. You can season the vegetables as desired and even marinate them. Just don’t marinate them too long, because they will get mushy and fall apart. The basics: Just about any vegetable works, including lettuces like romaine and radicchio. Some, like sliced potatoes and carrots, benefit from a little precooking. Make sure the vegetables are cut into the same size pieces so they cook evenly. Preheat the grill to medium or medium-high and oil the grates. Brush the vegetables with oil and grill, depending on the vegetable, about 3 minutes per side. Recipe for success: For grilled romaine lettuce with bleu cheese, preheat the grill to medium. Have ready cooked crisp bacon pieces, blue cheese crumbles and blue cheese dressing. Cut a whole head of romaine in half lengthwise through the core, keeping the core intact. Brush the cut side of the romaine with olive oil. Place cut side down on the grill and cook 2-3 minutes or until grill marks appear. Remove to a platter. Drizzle with blue cheese dressing and top with blue cheese crumbles and bacon.

simple trick. “Soak it in brine before you grill it,” Annie Sweitzer, of Forty Fort, said. Brine is a mixture of water that is heavily salted. Sweitzer uses two quarts of water, two tablespoons of salt, two crushed garlic cloves, and four sprigs of fresh thyme for her brine. She lets the chicken soak overnight. While Dan Maker, 41, of Forty Fort, has no problem grilling up a good piece of meat now and then, what he really enjoys making is something not often thought to be on a grill. “Pizza,” he said. “I love to make all kinds of pizza on the grill.” Maker has made several different kinds of grill pizza, but his first ever grilled creation is a favorite among his family. “It always comes back to the barbecue chicken.” For this, Maker said to coat the bottom of a round premade pizza shell with olive oil, then top it with a can of chunk chicken, barbecue sauce, and Colby jack cheese. Grill it on medium heat for about ten minutes, or until the cheese melts. One thing to remember, Maker said, is to go easy on the toppings. “You don’t want to load the pizza up or it won’t cook through. You’ll have burnt crust but toppings that aren’t fully cooked.” Avoiding burnt crust is one of the trickiest parts to the process. “It’s very important to watch the crust,” Maker said. “In a split second they can go from golden to charred.” Burnt grill creations is something Maker is all too familiar with. “I burned things all the time when I started grilling. I would drive myself nuts with ruining food, then I realized it was because I was running too hot. I find that, like me, most people tend to grill on too high a temperature. After you fire the grill up, bring it down to a medium heat and cook that way.”

Teen ‘squares’ show courage when they learn to say no to their friends Dear Abby: My best friend, “Brianna,” often invites me to big parties at her older friends’ homes. At first I was thrilled because I’m only 15. At the parties I saw some people doing bad things — but I didn’t, at first. Soon, Brianna pressured me into doing some things that I didn’t feel comfortable doing. My parents are very strict about these things, and I knew it was wrong. I have tried to get out of going to the parties, but Brianna says bad things to me. I have even had to lie to my parents about where I’m going. Every girl my age wants to go to these parties, but I don’t. Am I weird

DEAR ABBY ADVICE for not wanting to get involved in inappropriate things? I’m afraid if I stand up to Brianna, she’ll make everyone hate me. What should I do? — Feeling Pressured in California Dear Feeling Pressured: You’re not weird, and “every” girl your age does NOT want to attend the parties you have mentioned. You appear to be a lot more intelligent than your “friend” Brianna, who sounds more like a bully than a friend. Because Brianna does things that could land her in trouble doesn’t mean that you should do them.

UNIVERSAL SUDOKU

As I say in my booklet, “What Every Teen Should Know”: “... when it comes to being enticed into acts that are senseless, dangerous, illegal or immoral, it’s the ‘squares,’ the kids who care about their reputations (and their school and/or police records), who really show courage by saying, ‘No thanks, I’ll pass.’” Today, it’s not unusual to hear about teens engaging in adult activities at much younger ages than the teenagers of previous generations. That is why it is so important for parents (and guardians) to take the time to discuss alcohol, drugs, sex and family values with their children well before they start experimenting. My teen booklet provides the answers to frequently asked questions such as: How old must a girl be be-

CRYPTOQUOTE

fore she can get pregnant? Can she get pregnant the first time she has sex? What time of the month is a girl 100 percent safe? How old must a boy be before he can father a child? Another important topic that’s included is how to avoid date rape and what to do if it happens. To order “What Every Teen Should Know,” send your name and address, plus check or money order for $6 (U.S. funds), to Dear Abby Teen Booklet, P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. Shipping and handling are included in the price. My booklet also contains information on contraception and sexually transmitted diseases and how to recognize them. Dear Abby: There’s a question I have been pondering for years and I have

never seen it addressed in your column. Which came first, the chicken sandwich or the egg salad? I need to make a decision soon. — Chicken Lover in Portland, Ore. Dear Chicken Lover: Your question is out of my area of expertise because I’m a peanut butter-and-jelly girl. But I know baloney when I’m handed a portion, so chew on that until you figure out the answer.

To receive a collection of Abby’s most memorable — and most frequently requested — poems and essays, send a business-sized, selfaddressed envelope, plus check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear Abby’s “Keepers,” P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)

HOROSCOPE BY HOLIDAY MATHIS

GOREN BRIDGE WITH OMAR SHARIF & TANNAH HIRSCH PREVIOUS DAY’S SOLUTION

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Are you allowed to have lazy days? If so, how lazy, and how many? These are the kinds of questions you’ll be weighing in your mind as you struggle to get motivated. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). While some areas of life are developing nicely, a very important goal has slipped out of reach and will continue to drift away from you unless you make an action plan and commit to it. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You won’t believe what some people charge for their services. Seeing what’s out there could make you feel like you’ve been settling for less than you deserve. CANCER (June 22-July 22). A nagging thought will keep cropping up until you do something about it. Go straight to the root of it, and yank it like the weed it is. Handle this so you can get quickly back to the main event. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). What’s important is that you eventually figure out what you’re supposed to do and do it. The confusion, false starts and missteps that happen prior to that won’t really count in the end. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Whatever state you’re going for — happier, thinner, richer, whatever — the “act as if” exercise will help you achieve it. And you’ll probably learn that you’re a better thespian than you thought. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Save the Internet and other distractions for after you do your work. Otherwise, your thoughts and energy will spin out in all kinds of directions, and it will be difficult to reel them back in.

HOW TO CONTACT: Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your progress will inspire others. But if you devolve instead, that will be inspiring, too — someday and as long as you don’t give up. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You want the best teacher available and will get what you want when you are the best pupil around. Bring your curious and open mind, and check your ego at the door. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Sometimes it seems like too much effort to prepare and enjoy your meals properly. That’s why it’s so wonderful to find a new food or restaurant you like. You’ll make such a find today. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You will create a bid for a job or perhaps for another kind of arrangement that is less formal. Do your research. Consider, compare and contrast the deals that others in a similar position have made. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Action begets action. You’ll be busy all day, and night brings the same high activity level. Take pictures and write things down. There’s much you’ll want to remember in this flurry of activity. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 20). You will follow your interests with new passion and, in the process, bond with loyal friends. Your tremendous self-control and persistence are rewarded when you reach a personal goal in September. Autumn brings romantic adventures and diplomatic maneuvers. Aquarius and Pisces people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 14, 20, 6, 32 and 18.
