Woman: Boy coerced to tell a lie PLYMOUTH – It began as a routine investigation: Two girls, ages 15 and 10, had come forward in August 2010 to allege they had been sexually molested by a relative.

Luzerne County commissioners say Wilkes-Barre must fund some or all of the Hotel Sterling demolition if the building is coming down because the county is tapped out. County officials are tentatively scheduled to meet with Wilkes- Cooney Barre Mayor Tom Leighton this afternoon to discuss demolition funding for the landmark former downtown Wilkes-Barre Urban hotel. CityVest, the Sterling’s owner and developer, had asked the county to take over the project and determine whether the structure will be fully or partially saved or demolished. All three commissioners have said CityVest should make the call to tear down the shuttered structure on River Street and

5 sports on chopping block at West Side CTC Committee votes 8-6 for cuts as part of $6.08 million plan. Five districts now must vote. By JANINE UNGVARSKY Times Leader Correspondent

PRINGLE -- The fate of the sports programs at West Side Career & Technology Center officially rests in the hands of the

five sending districts after the school’s Joint Operating Committee voted 8-6 to cut funding for athletics from the 2011-12 budget. The budget included $191,598 in cuts that effectively eliminate the five sports played at the school, and several board members said they couldn’t support the plan because of that.

“We didn’t cut sports in our own districts, why should we cut them here?” said committee President Butch Rossi from Lake-Lehman before casting his no vote. Others said the cuts were necessary to prevent reductions in academic and vocational programs. “We were charged with (making) a 3 percent reduction in

“I called the city and nobody ever came to clear them,” Dzurisin said. “I got tired of waiting, so I did it myself.” The 15 steps lead from Park Avenue up to a sidewalk that leads to the Park Avenue Towers patio and building entrance. Dzurisin said that when it rains, dirt washes down from the hill above and clutters the steps. “We need a retaining wall at the top to stop this from happening over and over,” she said. “The city really should do something about this.” Anthony Kuren has lived on Park Avenue for 11 years. He saw Dzurisin clearing the steps, and he stopped to talk to her.

WILKES-BARRE – Betty Dzurisin, 58, said Monday she got tired of the city doing nothing to clear the steps at her building, so she did it herself.

Pittston Area board deadlocks on budget Vote is 4-4 with one member absent. $40.8 million plan would have raised taxes.

By B.GARRET ROGAN Times Leader Correspondent

PITTSTON -- The Pittston Area School Board failed to achieve the votes needed to pass its 2011-2012 budget during a special meeting Monday night. If a budget is not agreed upon by July 1, then the School District will not be able to pay its bills. If it had passed, the $40.8 million budget would have increased millage from 12.7990s to

13.1228. A mill is a $1 tax for each $1,000 of assessed property value. Board members Richard Gorzkowski, Ross Latona, Marilyn Starna and Terrence Best voted for the budget; Robert Linskey, Bruce Knick, Martin Quinn and Mark Singer voting against. Anthony Guariglia was absent from the meeting, but Linskey pointed out that Guariglia voted against the budget at the most recent preliminary reading and speculated that he might have voted “no” again. Board President Terrence Best was surprised by the tie vote. “I’m not optimistic,” he said

Linskey, who spoke out most vocally against the budget, pointed to concerns for possible lay-offs in upcoming years as his main concern with passing this year’s budget. “You have to plan ahead with these budgets, but instead we’re going year to year,” he said after

The Dallas and Wyoming Valley West representatives, along with Gerald Conger and Michael Pegarella from Northwest Area, voted in favor of the budget. Dave Alberigi from Wyoming Area was absent.

Coslett said he expects to know the results of that vote by July 7.

pano Beach, Fla.; Renee Spare, Franklin Township; five grandchildren; nine great-grandchildren; brothers, Paul Poepperling, Wilkes-Barre, and George Poepperling, North Dakota; sister, Margaret Burrell, Dallas; and several nieces and nephews. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10 a.m. Wednesday at 10 a.m. in St. Francis X. Cabrini Church, Carverton. Interment will be in the Mount Olivet Cemetery, Carverton. There will be no calling hours. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the United Cerebral Palsy of Northeastern Pennsylvania, 425 Wyoming Ave., Scranton, PA 18503. Arrangements are by the Metcalfe and Shaver Funeral Home Inc., 504 Wyoming Avenue, Wyoming.

While some committee members said their districts will not support the budget as is and encouraged concerned students and parents to petition their home district boards to oppose it, others pointed out that doing so would leave the school without an operating budget. Coslett said that if that happens, a new budget would have to be approved and may require calling the entire Joint Operating Board –the nine directors from each of the five sending schools – into session for action. The $6.08 million spending plan also eliminates the school’s recruiter and in-school suspension monitor positions, prompting some in the audience to question whether the move was in the best interest of students. Several parents and students among about 35 in attendance spoke in support of Lorri Vandermark, who currently serves

Pittston Bypass, requested an abatement for $2,083 in penalties and interest resulting from a missed tax payment in 2010. Bushko did not dispute the taxes owed but hoped that the penalties could be waived due to miscommunication on the part of Uni-Mart, the former owner of the property. On the advice of Board Solicitor Joseph Saporito, the board denied the abatement. Saporito said that despite the board’s best intentions to support Bushko’s business, the penalty fees had to stand, in fairness to other taxpayers. “I think it sucks, but thank you for your time,” Bushko responded.

Blago guilty of 17 counts in retrial on corruption Eleven counts related to his attempt to sell or trade Obama’s vacated Senate seat. By MICHAEL TARM and KAREN HAWKINS Associated Press

CHICAGO — Ousted Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich said he is disappointed and stunned after he was found guilty of 17 of 20 charges in his corruption retrial. He spoke only briefly, after saying that one thing he’d learned was not to talk so much. In court, Blagojevich turned to defense attorney Sheldon Sorosky and asked “What happened?” after the verdicts were read. His wife, Patti Blagojevich, slumped against her brother, then rushed into her husband’s arms. Before the verdicts were read, the former governor blew his wife a kiss before standing expressionless, with his hands clasped tightly. Blagojevich was convicted of all 11 charges related to his attempt to sell or trade President Barack Obama’s vacated Senate seat. Jurors deadlocked on two charges. Jurors who convicted Rod Blagojevich of corruption said it wasn’t that they didn’t like the ousted Illinois governor — they just didn’t believe him. Speaking to reporters after the verdict, one of the jury’s 11 women said she found the chatty Blagojevich personable, while another called parts of his seven days of testimony manipulative. Overall, they said they ultimately set aside their personal impressions, sticking to what they considered clear evidence that he tried to sell or trade Obama’s Senate seat. The jurors, who voted to convict Blagojevich, 54, on 17 of 20 counts after deliberating for nine days, spoke with reporters afterward but identified themselves only by their juror numbers. “It sends a message,” said the forewoman, Juror No. 146, who is a retired director of music and liturgy at a church. as the school’s recruiter. Parent Liz Mullen called Vandermark a “gap filler” who goes “above and beyond” her official job description, and questioned who would fill the role without a recruiter. “She does whatever needs doing to make this a good place,” Mullen said. “Any dollar amount you think you are saving … will come at a much greater cost to our students.” After the meeting, a visibly emotional Vandermark said she understands that cuts had to be made, but she is sad and concerned for the students. “This wasn’t just a job for me, it was a passion,” she said, adding that enrollment reached an all-time high during her time as recruiter. “If this is what’s truly best for the students, then that’s what’s important and I’ll have to accept it, because that’s why I came here – for the students.”

LOCAL Levee passes federal inspection Minimally acceptable rating due to ATV, bike riding and building of sheds, gardens close to the base.

By JENNIFER LEARN-ANDES jandes@timesleader.com

The Wyoming Valley Levee has passed a stringent federal inspection, though several deficiencies were identified. Two of the culprits: illegal all-terrain

vehicle and dirt bike riding that tears up the levee grounds and the unauthorized erection of sheds and gardens too close to the levee base, said Luzerne County Flood Protection Authority Executive Director Jim Brozena on Monday. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers completes comprehensive inspections of levees about every five years and issues a rating of acceptable, minimally acceptable or unacceptable. The Wyoming Valley Levee and all 34 other flood-control spans in the Corps’

Baltimore District were inspected and have received a minimally acceptable rating. “This means that there were no major concerns and that they would perform as expected or intended during a major flood event,” said a Corps press release. Sod cover, encroachments and rutting were identified as deficiencies locally. Brozena said the Corps determined the sod or turf coverage was insufficient

where ATVs and dirt bikes have been a problem, particularly in Wyoming and sections of the levee in Hanover Township near the Wyoming Valley Sanitary Authority. County officials will continue to discuss ways to block these intruders, he said. “It’s a difficult thing to control,” Brozena said. Encroachment is an issue because See LEVEE, Page 4A

Assault on mayor probed

Police said they are continuing to investigate a vicious assault in which Mayor Joseph Dougherty, 44, said he was beaten with a club or a stick in front of his residence on East Green Street late Saturday night. Dougherty told police he was sitting in a 2011 Chevrolet Cruze with the headlights and interior light turned on at Dougherty about 11 p.m. when he was pulled from the vehicle by three men in their late teens or early 20s. Dougherty said he was repeatedly struck with an object in the head and body, police said. The vehicle, owned by Colors Inc., where Dougherty is employed as an automotive paint salesman, was stolen. Police said the white four-door vehicle has the numbers 192 on the driver’s side front quarter panel. It was last seen traveling north on South Chestnut Street. Dougherty was transported to Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center in Plains Township.

Donald James Thomas of Duryea burglarized residences to support drug addiction, say authorities.

PLAINS TWP. – A man forced his way into five houses in three municipalities, stealing jewelry, electronics and other items to support a drug addiction, according to charges filed. Township police and Luzerne County detectives allege Donald James Thomas, 32, of Foote Avenue, Duryea, used pillow cases in at least three of the homes to carry stolen items. Thomas was arraigned Monday by District Judge Diana Malast on nine counts of burglary, four counts of criminal trespass, three counts of theft and a single count of receiving Thomas stolen property. He was jailed at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $100,000 bail. Investigators believe Thomas allegedly conspired with his live-in girlfriend, Jolene Melissa Snee, 20, to burglarize homes in Avoca, Jenkins Township and Plains Township from May 15 to May 22. According to the criminal complaint: Thomas entered a Spring Street, Jenkins Township, house on May 15 by climbing through a basement window. The homeowner said a pillow case was taken from the master bed and jewelry, electronics and furniture valued at $5,724 were taken. On the same day, a homeowner on Mitchell Street, Jenkins Township, reported someone entered his house through a window and stole a pillow case, comic books, personal bill statements, a New York Yankees picture, compact discs and cash. Less than a week later, on May 20, a young woman inside a house on Jay Place, Plains Township, called her parents, who were shopping, alerting them about a woman continuously ringing their door-

Years after two high-profile cases of unauthorized use, many Luzerne County government vehicles still are not clearly marked with the county seal as required by the county’s personnel policy, prompting county Controller Walter Griffith to urge commissioners to crack down on enforcement. The policy says all county vehicles will be “appropriately and universally” marked with the county seal, a municipal license plate and a number and label for identification. Griffith told commissioners during a recent public meeting that the controller’s office vehicle is marked, but many See VEHICLES, Page 4A

Property values online

The latest Luzerne County property assessments have been loaded onto The Times Leader’s free online database, allowing the public to research current property values without traveling to the courthouse. The database of 166,800 properties may be viewed at www.timesleader.com. Click on the property tax house icon on the main page that is located near the links for the PA Lottery and police blotter. The online database is a public service not offered by the assessor’s office. Remote public access to the county reassessment company’s online database ended in April 2009 for financial reasons, prompting continued complaints from taxpayers who relied on the site for research. The Times Leader database allows searches by streets if property owners want to check out other properties in their neighborhood, which may be helpful preparing for assessment appeals. The site also shows the acreage of parcels and property sale information supplied by the county. Assessment appeals for 2012 must be filed by Sept. 1. Appeal forms and other information about the appeal process is available on the county website at www.luzernecounty.org (click on departments/assessor) or by contacting the assessor’s office at 825-1859. Property data are also available for public viewing at the county assessor’s office, which is located in the basement of the courthouse in Wilkes-Barre, from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on weekdays.

SamHyder,thecounty’sformer deputy prison warden, lost use of an unmarked, county-owned 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe in 2007 after a newspaper article revealed that he parked the vehicle at his home while he was on vacation. “If a vehicle with a county seal is sitting in someone’s driveway, it may prompt a taxpayer to question what is going on,” Petrilla said. Managers or elected officials who believe their county vehicles should remain unmarked should be required to obtain exceptions from commissioners, Griffith said. Petrilla said some offices, such as the sheriff and probation services, may have justification to keep some of their vehicles unmarked. For example, sheriff deputies search for fugitives who are wanted on various charges and may flee if they see a marked car. Probation workers monitor offendersforpossibleprobationviolations. Decisions will be made on the labeling of each of the county’s roughly 160 passenger vehicles, Petrilla said. County Commissioner Stephen A. Urban said he wants the policy enforced and said there should be “very limited circumstances” for granting exceptions.

Investigators allege it was Thomas and Snee who were running away after a homeowner on West Saylor Avenue confronted Thomas crawling through a rear window. After the two attempted burglaries in Plains Township, Avoca police said, a homeowner on Clark Street discovered on May 20 his house had been ransacked and jewelry and other items valued at $4,000 had been stolen, according to the complaint. In another burglary on May 22, a homeowner on Atherton Street, Plains Township, discovered a door had been kicked open and a television, a pillow case and jewelry stolen. Investigators recovered several pieces of jewelry stolen from the houses at a gold store at the Wyoming Valley Mall. Investigators allege Snee told them she and Thomas were in need of money to support their drug addiction. She said the stolen items were either sold at pawn shops or on the street, according to the complaint. A preliminary hearing is scheduled on July 5 before Malast. Police also expect to file related charges against Snee, who is currently in the county jail on unrelated burglary charges filed by Avoca Police.

Elvis Riccardi’s nephew and former fellow inmate of Michael Simonson testify. By SHEENA DELAZIO sdelazio@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – Elvis Riccardi’s nephew testified Monday he heard Michael Simonson say he was going to crush someone’s skull on April 27, 2009. And a former fellow inmate of Simonson’s testified he talked to Simonson about Donald Skiff’s death and Simonson said, “I did what I did.”

Richard Lewis’ and Ray McGrad’s testimony came in the sixth and final day of testimony in the capital murder trial of Riccardi. Riccardi, 33, is charged in the death of 34-year-old Skiff. Police say Skiff, of Plymouth, went missing after fishing with friends on April 27, 2009. His body was found in a wooded area off Suscon Road in Jenkins Township in June 2009. Attorneys in the case will present their closing arguments today to a jury of 10 women and five men before they are instructed on the law that applies

to the 27 charges Riccardi faces. Riccardi faces a first-degree murder charge, as well as kidnapping, robbery, theft by unlawful taking and other charges. If convicted of first-degree murder, Riccardi faces either life in prison or the death penalty. Riccardi told Senior Judge Joseph Augello on Monday afternoon that he would not be testifying in his own defense. Simonson, 34, pleaded guilty to a second-degree murder charge in Skiff’s death and was sentenced in August to life in prison.

Hanover Area OKs $24.8M plan with tax hike for debt By CAMILLE FIOTI Times Leader Correspondent

HANOVER TWP. -- The Hanover Area School Board voted 8-1 Monday to adopt a final budget for the 2011-12 school year. Frank Ciavarella Jr. voted against the $24.8 million budget that includes a 0.25 mill increase to be set aside to pay off the district’s debt. The 0.25 mill in the balanced budget amounts to a 1.5 percent increase for the 2011-12 school year, which is equal to $25 for a home with an assessed property value of $100,000. The total millage rate for 2011-12 will be 16.48 mills. The current rate is 16.23 mills. “We tried to be as open and transparent about the budget process as we could be,” said board President John Pericci. A mill is a $1 tax on every $1,000 of assessed property value. Through significant cuts in expenses, the board said the final budget is approximately $3.5 million less than the original preliminary budget proposed last February. The board presented a graphic outline of the final budget,

which includes a wage freeze for teachers and administrators amounting to approximately $500,000 in savings. “Our teachers are the only teachers that I know in Luzerne County that took a pay freeze,” said board member John Mahle. Other cost-cutting measures included the voluntary retirement of 19 teachers and eight support staff members, elimination of two assistant elementary school principal positions and two high school professional employee positions, elimination of seventh- and eighth-grade sports programs, a10 percent reduction in coach’s salaries, a reduction in sports program budgets, school supplies, field trips, assemblies and the closing of Lyndwood Elementary School. The district will maintain the full-day kindergarten program, its existing educational programs and an overall class size of 26 to 1, the board added. Pericci said the board struggled with the decision as whether to eliminate full-day kindergarten, which would also eliminate the $212,000 deficit and put the district in the black.

WILKES-BARRE – After three and a half years of inactivity, the city Redevelopment Authority on Monday reorganized and took care of some outstanding bills and business. By unanimous votes, James Conahan Jr. was elected chairman; Theodore Wampole, vice chairman; Terrance Henry, treasurer; and Robert Maley, secretary. The fifth member of the board is Michael Kaye. The main reason for Monday’s meeting, solicitor Frank Hoegen said, was to give the board the opportunity to approve certificates of completion for some redevelopment projects that took place in the 1970s and 1980s. “There are four projects, which are complete, but there is no certificate of completion and so we need to sign those and file

the Corps recommends that the levee owner, in this case the county authority, owns the land 15 feet from the levee toe or base and prohibits any structures within that distance that are not related to flood control, he said. The authority won’t meet that standard in Plymouth because it would have to acquire and demolish several homes within the 15 feet, Brozena said. The authority has no plans to purchase these properties because it would unnecessarily force people out of their homes, he said. But the authority will start enforcing the encroachment of private property owners on land within the 15 feet that is owned

plying for errors-and-omissions insurance to Joseph J. Joyce Associates at a price Hoegen said was “a couple thousand dollars less” than it cost a few years ago. The board also approved payment of: • $7,342 to Joyce for errorsand-omission insurance that will cover the authority through June 2012 as well as a bill for 2008 errors- and-omission insurance that had been outstanding. • $7,500 to Hoegen for legal work he said he performed over the last several years. • $218.41 to Elliot, Greenleaf & Dean, the authority’s former solicitor. The board could not approve minutes from the last meeting, which was held in January 2008, because they were never transcribed. Hoegen said he requested a copy of an audio tape of the last meeting from the city so they could be transcribed and ready at the next authority meeting. Conahan said the next meeting would be scheduled when needed.

Brozena said he has not yet received a final inspection report but will make sure everything is addressed. “We continue to strive to go ahead and get the acceptable rating,” he said. “I don’t know that anybody gets an acceptable rating. It is that difficult to accomplish.” The 15-mile Wyoming Valley Levee runs from Exeter to Plymouth on the west side and from the county courthouse in Wilkes-Barre to Hanover Township on the east. It’s designed to protect against a flood comparable to Tropical Storm Agnes in 1972, or a Susquehanna River level of 41 feet.

them with the Recorder of Deeds Office so that the parties who are the owners of these properties can sell them without a title insurance problem,” Hoegen said. Three of the properties are residential and located in South Wilkes-Barre. Hoegen said the authority sold lots to private parties after the flood of 1973 and demolished structures on them; the property owners built new homes on them and now they want to sell those homes. The fourth property is owned by Heritage House, a personal care/hospice care/assistive living facility at 80 E. Northampton St. The Diocese of Scranton formed a new nonprofit entity called St. Luke’s Villa, which will purchase Heritage House, currently an affiliate of Wyoming Valley Health Care System. The board also approved a loan of up to $20,000 from the city of Wilkes-Barre that would allow the authority to pay outstanding bills because the authority has no current income.

Court throws out violent game ban

Casey Anthony enters the courtroom Monday before the start of the day in her trial at the Orange County Courthouse in Orlando, Fla. She is charged with the murder of her daughter, 2. ORLANDO, FLA.

Anthony ruled competent

judge ruled Monday that Casey A Anthony is competent to remain on trial for murder in the death of her 2-year-old daughter after her own lawyers questioned her mental health. Anthony’s attorneys told the judge they did not believe she was competent. They said that assessment was based on their privileged communication with her but did not elaborate in a motion filed Saturday and sealed until the judge ruled Monday. The motion halted what had been expected to be a full day of testimony Saturday by witnesses. Anthony was examined by three psychologists over the weekend. After reading their reports, Judge Belvin Perry ruled Monday the trial should continue.

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court ruled Monday that California cannot ban the rental or sale of violent video games to children. Justices agreed with a federal court’s decision to throw out California’s ban on the sale or rental of violent video games to minors. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Sacramento said the law violated minors’ rights under the First and Fourteenth amendments. The law would have prohibited the sale or rental of violent games to anyone under 18. Retailers who violated the act would have been fined up to $1,000 for each infraction. In other action, the court: • Rejected an appeal from former detainees at the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq

who wanted to sue defense contractors over claims of abuse. The justices turned aside the appeal from Iraqis who said they or their relatives were abused by interrogators employed by two firms, CACI International Inc. and Titan Corp. A divided federal appeals court had dismissed the lawsuits. The Supreme Court has added a couple of high-profile constitutional challenges to its lineup of cases for next term which begins on the first Monday in October: One looking at governmental regulation of television content and the other dealing with the authority of police to use a GPS device to track a suspect’s movements without a warrant. • Struck down a provision of a campaign financing system in Arizona that gives extra cash to publicly funded candidates who face privately funded rivals and independent groups. The 5-4 ruling is the latest in a series of decisions by the court’s conservative majority upending campaign finance

laws. The Arizona law was passed in the wake of a public corruption scandal and was intended to reward candidates who forgo raising campaign cash, even in the face of opponents’ heavy spending fueled by private money. The court said the law violates the First Amendment. “Laws like Arizona’s matching funds

provision that inhibit robust and wideopen political debate without sufficient justification cannot stand,” Chief Justice John Roberts said in the court’s majority opinion. At least four other states, Maine, New Mexico, North Carolina and Wisconsin, have similar “trigger” provisions that affect some political races, and could be vulnerable.

In contrast, militants in control of another nearby city are enforcing a stringent version of Islamic rule, forcing women to stay home and trying to recruit young men to their ranks, according to residents there. Government forces do not appear to have the will to fight the Islamists, raising fears that al-Qaida’s most dangerous wing is making significant gains as the weakened regime of President Ali Abdullah Saleh unravels in the face of an array of opponents.

The gunmen then allegedly forced migrants to climb down from atop the cars and stuffed some into at least three waiting SUVs. Solalinde, who runs a migrant shelter in nearby Oaxaca, said he suspects that the Zetas drug cartel was involved because it operates in the area. DONEGAL, PA.

One of them was taken by helicopter to Conemaugh Hospital in Johnstown, while 23 others were taken to two other hospitals. The accident happened at about 7:30 a.m. near the near the Donegal exit, about 40 miles east of Pittsburgh. The driver of the flatbed tractortrailer suffered moderate injuries.

Warrants issued against Gadhafi, son International court orders arrests of Libyan leader, kin and key aide for allegedly murdering nation’s civilians.

By MIKE CORDER Associated Press

THE HAGUE, Netherlands — International judges ordered the arrest of Moammar Gadhafi on Monday for allegedly murdering Libyan civilians who rose up against him, as NATO warplanes pounded his Tripoli compound and world leaders stepped up calls for the Libyan leader to resign. The International Criminal Court said Gadhafi, his son Seif al-Islam Gadhafi and his intelligence chief Abdullah al-Sanoussi are wanted for allegedly orchestrating the killing, injuring, arrest and imprisonment of hundreds of civilians during the first 12 days of an uprising to topple Gadhafi from power, and for trying to cover this up. The warrants from The Hague court turn the three men into internationally wanted suspects, potentially complicating efforts to mediate an end to more than four months of intense fighting in the North African nation. The warrants will be sent to Libya, where Gadhafi remains defiantly entrenched. Presiding Judge Sanji Monageng of

Botswana called Gadhafi the “undisputed leader of Libya” who had “absolute, ultimate and unquestioned control” over his country’s military and security forces. She said prosecutors presented evidence showing that following popular uprisings in Tunisia and Egypt, Gadhafi and his inner circle plotted a “state policy ... aimed at deterring and quelling by any means — including by the use of lethal force — demonstrations by civilians against the regime.” Hundreds of civilians were killed, injured or arrested, she said, adding there

were “reasonable grounds to believe” that Gadhafi and his son were both responsible for the murder and persecution of civilians. Prosecutors said the three suspects should be arrested quickly “to prevent them covering up ongoing crimes and committing new crimes.” Gadhafi’s regime rejected the court’s authority even before the decision was read, accusing it of unfairly targeting Africans while ignoring what it called crimes committed by NATO in Afghanistan, Iraq “and in Libya now.”

White House optimistic on debt, but sides harden Obama spokesman affirms president would only go for a plan that included both cuts and taxes. By JIM KUHNHENN Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama plunged into deadlocked negotiations to cut government deficits and raise the nation’s debt limit Monday, and the White House expressed confidence a “significant” deal with Republicans could be reached. But both sides only seemed to harden their positions as the day wore on, the administration insisting on higher taxes as part of the package but Republican leaders flatly rejecting the idea. Obama and Vice President Joe Biden

met with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., for about 30 minutes at the White House, setting the stage for an evening meeting with Republican Senate leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky. White House spokesman Jay Carney said Obama reported after the morning session that “everyone in the room believes that a significant deal remains possible.” But Carney also affirmed that Obama would only go for a deficit-reduction plan that included both spending cuts and increased tax revenue, an approach that Republicans say would never get through Congress. Said Carney: “It’s the only way to get it done if you want to do it right.” McConnell, in a speech just hours before heading to the White House himself, said: “It’s time Washington take the hit,

not the taxpayers.” McConnell said any tax increase or new spending would be counterproductive to economic recovery, and he pointed out that Democrats had been unable to pass tax increases on the wealthy when they controlled both chambers of Congress last year. “Let’s move past tax hikes, talk about what’s actually possible, and let’s talk about what has and hasn’t worked over the past two years,” said the Kentucky Republican. Reid said, “I hope my Republican colleagues will put the economy ahead of politics.” Speaking on the Senate floor, he said, “I hope they’ll join us to create jobs and set aside their desire to please the tea party and defeat President Obama.”

HARRISBURG — The state budget debate picked up steam in Harrisburg on Monday as the Republican majority took the wraps off a $27.15 billion spending plan while minority Democrats stalled aid to some of the state’s largest universities in protest over deep cuts pushed by the GOP. The main budget bill was approved on a party line vote “It matches by the Senate our revenues Appropriations Com- with our exmittee and was penditures. sent to the You have to floor as Repub- do that.” licans continJake Corman ued their drive Senate to complete a Appropriations budget on Committee time and beChairman fore the new fiscal year begins for the first time in nine years. The spending package, agreed to by Republican Gov. Tom Corbett, would cut spending by about 3 percent, thanks largely to more than $1.1 billion in cuts in aid to public schools and 18 state-supported universities. Republicans contend they are left with little choice but to cut spending as billions of dollars in temporary federal budget aid dry up and state tax collections still recover from the recession. “It matches our revenues with our expenditures. You have to do that,” Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Jake Corman said after the party line committee vote. In the House, minority Democrats defeated funding legislation for Pitt, Temple and the University of Pennsylvania’s veterinary school, and they delayed a vote on Penn State’s appropriation. Those funding bills required a two-thirds majority voting yes — requiring at least some minority party support — and Democrats urged voting them down to pressure Republicans to restore money. A fifth vote, for Lincoln University’s state subsidy, passed narrowly. But it was unclear whether the House would reconsider those votes before the fall. “A no vote tonight means that we can do better; a no vote tonight means that we must do better for the students and their families,” Rep. Phyllis Mundy, D-Kingston, said during floor debate.

QUOTE OF THE DAY “I don’t say things for political value. I’m authentic in what I say.” Michele Bachmann The three-term congresswoman from Minnesota on Monday formally kicked off her campaign for the Republican presidential nomination. Bachmann, 55, began her quest in her hometown, Waterloo, Iowa, and is expected to soon visit other early voting states including New Hampshire and South Carolina.

OTHER OPINION: BATTLING DISEASE

Campbell puts face on Alzheimer’s

HE GRAMMY Awardwinning singer Glen Campbell announced earlier this month that he is suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. And then he said he’d be going on the road for a farewell tour. It’s not unusual for a public figure to reveal a diagnosis of the insidious disease. Former President Reagan told the world of his battle with Alzheimer’s in a poignant letter in 1994. Actor Charlton Heston disclosed, via a taped statement, that he was suffering from symptoms similar to those of Alzheimer’s. Peace Corps founder Sargent Shriver’s 2003 diagnosis also was announced. What’s extraordinary about the 75-year-old Campbell, who revealed his illness in an interview with People magazine, is his intention to stay in the spot-

light – and ask his fans’ indulgence. That decision, if he can carry it out, is a milestone in the fight Campbell against Alzheimer’s, a disease that currently has no cure. Campbell’s tour is an opportunity to show not only how widespread this disease is, but also that life goes on even after one is diagnosed with it. Like Michael J. Fox, who has put a working actor’s face on living with Parkinson’s disease, Campbell – the singer known for such country pop classics as “Wichita Lineman” and “Rhinestone Cowboy” – can put a face on living with Alzheimer’s.

Dimock man perturbed that drilling continues

n a recent Saturday night, my wife and I took a ride to Walmart near Tunkhannock. On the way home we saw lights coming from a natural gas well. We stopped and took some pictures, then drove home. When I pulled into the driveway, I was reminded of our “water buffalo” sitting there so we can have fresh water in the house. We can’t use our well water because Cabot Oil and Gas reportedly contaminated our well in September 2008, within a month of drilling for natural gas 976 feet from my well. The state Department of Environmental Protection is holding Cabot responsible for the contamination. Even though we have a moratorium in the nine-square mile affected area, Cabot is allowed to drill and “frack” wells outside of this area. This does not sit right with me. How does a company such as Cabot come into our state, get slapped with many fines for the contamination, but continue business as usual in Pennsylvania. I suggest we sign a petition to ban Cabot from the state until the water well contamination is rectified. Water is worth much more than money. Once it’s gone, it’s gone. In fact, Pennsylvania should ban all the companies that contaminate the water wells of many, many people. It’s time to hold these big gas companies accountable for their actions, or lack of it. We cannot sit back and let this industry overtake us, or the state Department of Environmental Protection. Enough is enough. It’s been almost three years and the same problems still exist. Now Cabot, fix the problems or get out of our state. Craig A. Sautner Dimock Township

Alternatives to abortion for unwanted pregnancy

his letter is addressed to the young women who find themselves pregnant and don’t want to be. Murdering an unborn human being by abortion is, in my opinion, flying in the face of God.

Lawmakers’ health plan has writer feeling ill

he Bucks County Courier Times recently published articles that deal with health care plans used by Pennsylvania’s legislators, and the plan’s associated costs. These articles were picked up by The Associated Press wire service, but they have not received the attention they deserve. The gist of the articles is that the health care plans are a good deal for legislators and a bad deal for their employers, i.e., taxpayers. The plans entail lower co-pays and deductibles than are typical with health plans for private-sector employees. And when a senator or representative enrolls in one of the plans, the legislator contributes only 1 percent of his/her salary toward the plan premium, which covers only 2 percent to 18 percent of that cost. That’s quite different from the private sector, where a typical employee, irrespective of salary, pays about 29 percent of the premium for a health care plan. The articles created an uproar in southeastern Pennsylvania, bringing to mind the controversy about legislators’ pay raises in 2005. Legislators’ attitudes about the issue seem to be evolving; some are proposing specific changes for their health care costsharing arrangements. But the proposed changes are insufficient. None of them would bring legislators’ contributions to costs for their health care into line in the

near term with costs borne by employees in the private sector. To reach that objective, much more lobbying is needed by a lot more taxpayers across the state. I’ve contacted my senator and representative. I hope you will do the same with yours. Phil Edmunds Boalsburg

New dose of ‘stimulus’ can aid families, nation

ere’s the thing: Corporate America is enjoying record profits. Corporations hold trillions of dollars in cash. Ya know what? That’s exactly what their job is. Corporations are supposed to make as much money for their investors as they can. That’s what they get hired to do; that’s what they get paid to do. So, if it’s true, then why should they create jobs? Jobs cost corporations money. That takes away from the profits and that takes money out of investors’ pockets. It isn’t in the best interest of corporations to create jobs. That is, unless there’s a profit to be had in creating those jobs. What would cause that profit? If there was a demand for the corporation’s products beyond its present capacity to manufacture them, then there would be an incentive. The real question is how do we create this demand? Answer: Put money in the hands of people who might buy the products that the corporations manufacture. How do we do that? We could put money in the hands of millionaires and billionaires, but there are two problems with that. There aren’t as many of them, and they’re not likely to spend that money. The other suggestion is to put money in the hands of the middle class and the poor. There are loads of these people and they very likely will spend the money. So how do we put the money in their hands? Either send them a check, or maybe a better way would be to spend lots of money on our infrastructure. Lord knows it needs work done on it. That would put loads of people back to work, which would solve another problem: namely unemployment. Then they’ll be paying taxes on their incomes, which would help on the deficit and debt issues. Now why didn’t I think of this before? Why didn’t Congress think of this? Isn’t that its job? You might think that was exactly what the stimulus was for. Well, it was, but it sort of wound up as a political grab for pork. They need to do it right if they want it to work. Ed Cole Clarks Summit

movies with him. The boy did not want to perform the acts, he said, but did so out of fear Hann would scream at him if he refused. He sometimes took out his frustration by killing some of the many stray cats Hann took in, police said. Today, Caravella and Hann are behind bars, awaiting a preliminary hearing on several sexual assault charges, including rape of a child. It’s a horrific story that, if true, raises troubling questions of how such abuse could go on for so long without anyone noticing. For Hann the answer is simple: It didn’t happen. In a recent interview from the Luzerne County Correctional Facility, Hann adamantly denied that she or Caravella sexually abused the boy. She contends the teen was scared into making false allegations against them by officials with Children and Youth so the agency could gain the upper hand in an ongoing custody battle with her. “They couldn’t get me when I was out there. Now they’ve got me in here, where I can’t defend myself,” Hann said. “They can say all they want to trash me and there is nothing I can do.” Before her arrest, Hann had waged a public battle against Children and Youth via the social networking sites Facebook and MySpace, alleging the agency had “stolen” the boy. The teenager was removed from her home on Aug. 19, 2010, the same day the two girls alleged Caravella had molested them between 2002 and 2005 at the Gould Street home and his former residence in Nanticoke. Caravella was charged in March with multiple sexual assault offenses relating to that case. He later waived the majority of the charges to county court. Hann insists those allegations also are false, the product of a vindictive, out-of-control teenager who, upset that Hann had urged

the girl’s mother to gain more control in her life, convinced her sister to join her in fabricating the story. Court records indicate there is a deep divide about the case within Hann’s family. Two weeks after the girls made the allegations, Hann and the girls’ mother sought a protection from abuse order against the girls’ father, alleging he had threatened them and encouraged the girls to fabricate the story against Caravella. No order was ever entered, as both petitions were dismissed by a judge after a hearing on Sept. 7. Claims of deviancy, isolation Caravella was out on bail awaiting trial in the case involving the two girls when the new allegations regarding the teenage boy arose. He and Hann were each charged on June 17. The arrest affidavit in the case portrays Hann and Caravella as sexual deviants who deliberately isolated the boy from the outside world so they could secretly perpetuate the abuse. Authorities say the boy was never enrolled in public school. Since 2004, his education came

aligned homes. Bill and Johanna Lambert, who live a few doors down from Hann, said they knew a child lived in the home, but they rarely saw him or anyone else from the house outside. They didn’t consider that unusual because “everyone keeps to themselves on the street,” Bill Lambert said. “I’m sick to hear such a thing,” Lambert said of the allegations against Hann and Caravella. “You hate to say if it’s true or not. If it is true, they should be punished. If not, it’s a shame it came up.” Hann disputes allegations that the boy had no outside contact. He spent time at a nearby neighbor’s home, and was frequently with her and Caravella when they visited his extended family, she said. “He is very social, very loveable. He was everyone’s favorite everywhere we went,” she said. She also rebutted claims that the boy killed her cats. She said she took in feral cats to tame them, then adopt them out. Some of those cats died, she said, but she believes it was from undetected diseases they contracted in the wild. Her decision to remove the boy

said. Weeds have grown high on either side of the steps – all on cityowned land. “I found the plank lying on the side of the steps,” she said. “I would like to see the mayor do something about this.” When first contacted Monday, the city said the steps were on private property. However, after checking, Drew McLaughlin, administrative coordinator for the city, said the property is owned by the city. “It is city property, and the city will maintain it,” McLaughlin said. “The additional summer workers, which started last week, will significantly help the city maintain all city-owned property. These steps will be added to the regularmaintenanceworkandwe will look at possible long-term so-

lutions that will mitigate reoccurrences.” McLaughlin, on behalf of Mayor Tom Leighton, thanked Dzurisin and other residents of Park Avenue Towers for their help. “But we would not ask or expect any resident to jeopardize their personal health to help us maintain the city,” McLaughlin said. Asked if the city would build a retaining wall at the top of the steps, he said the city will look into it. “That would be a possible longterm solution,” he said. “That’s something that operations would have to evaluate, and they will.” After most of the work was done, a neighbor loaned Dzurisin a shovel to make it a little easier know what hard work is all about. for her to move the dirt. “I’m Italian and I grew up on a Nobody wants to see their place farm in Bloomsburg,” she said. “I look ugly.”

“This is a city project. The principal beneficiary will be the city.”

The money would have to come out of the office’s revolving loan fund, Reilly said. The fund, currently valued at roughly $9 million, relies on loan repayments and interest earnings to continue providing new loans to area businesses. Commissioners have expressed reluctance about dipping into the fund because it could

find the money to pay for demolition, though they agreed to explore possible funding options. County commissioners Stephen A. Urban and Thomas Cooney said Monday that they believe the city should come up with funding for demolition, which has been estimated at $1 million. “My feeling is the city should play a role here. I think the city has to be the major player here,”

her doctor has advised her to avoid heavy work. “Too many senior citizens use these steps and they might fall if they weren’t cleared,” Dzurisin said. “The city told me they would get around to it, but I got tired of waiting.”

So Dzurisin gets up early and starts clearing the debris around 7 a.m. She said it doesn’t take her long to get the job done, but she wants the city to build the retaining wall to prevent the problem. “I cleared the steps, now the city can get rid of the forest,” she

Cooney said. The county already has loaned CityVest $6 million for the project, and development of the site would help the city’s downtown, he said. “This is a city project. The principal beneficiary will be the city,” Cooney said. Urban said the city has not provided funding for the project to date. Instead, the city required CityVest to pay a $303,000 city lien for building demolition costs associated with a prior owner of a portion of the property, he said. The city also obtained state approval to use $3 million in state

funding earmarked for the Sterling project to cover overruns for the city’s Intermodal Transportation Center, Urban said. “The city needs to step up to the plate and start participating, and it hasn’t been stepping up to the plate,” Urban said. Leighton could not immediately be reached for comment Monday. County officials say the city could cover the Sterling demolition with federal funding it receives through the Community Development Block Grant program, commonly known as CDBG funding.

A unique case… It began as a routine investigation, one of hundreds in Luzerne County that take place each year. But it soon became apparent this investigation would be anything but routine.

Skameritz said she doesn’t know why the boy would make up such a story. She believes authorities may not have accurately reported what he said. “I don’t know “They what happened couldn’t in that room. They could get me have asked cerwhen I was tain questions out there. and when he answered, they Now could have they’ve twisted it.” Castagot me in no,Frank executive here, director of Children and Youth, where I did not return can’t deseveral phone calls seeking fend mycomment. self.’’ Sworen said Carol Ann Hann the investigaWho along with tion into the her husband case, including face sexual the boy’s conassault charges tact with the cyber school, is continuing. Dennis Tulli, director of Commonwealth Connections Academy, said the boy withdrew from the school in November. Citing privacy laws, he said he could not comment on the boy’s academic progress or whether any teacher suspected abuse. Speaking generally, he said teachers are in phone contact with students every two weeks. If there is any suspicion of abuse they are mandated by law to report it. “We have contacted the District Attorney’s Office and have offered our full cooperation,” he said. Hann and Caravella remain jailed for lack of $100,000 bail each. They face a preliminary hearing on the charges on Aug. 10. Hann said she realizes public sentiment is against her given the deviant nature of the allegations. She also knows she faces an uphill battle in proving her innocence, but vowed to fight the charges. “All I can do is tell the truth,” she said. “Hopefully, the truth conquers lies.”

via the Commonwealth Connections Academy, a cyber school headquartered in Baltimore. He rarely ventured outside, spending most of his time in the home with Caravella and Hann, and had no friends. That lack of contact with the outside world ensured that people who might detect signs of abuse, including teachers, neighbors and other children, never got the chance, said Luzerne County Detective Gary Sworen, one of the investigators on the case. “With these types of cases we count on people, especially teachers, to take notice of any possibility of abuse. Outside of the parents, teachers are the next group of people who see the kid on a daily basis,” Sworen said. “When kids don’t go to school, there is no one to check on them. You eliminate the people who would see something.” Sworen said neighbors on Gould Street were also in the dark. “Nobody knew what was going on or even that there was a kid in the house,” Sworen said. The narrow street located off Vine Street is filled with closely

STEPS “It takes an older woman with serious health issues to get this done,” Kuren said. “I’ve called the city on this situation in the past, and nothing has ever been done.” Angie Miller, the manager at Park Avenue Towers, said she has been in touch with the city as well, to no avail. She said the city advised her to leave the steps alone. Park Avenue Towers rents to the elderly and people with disabilities. Miller said there are 130 apartments in the building that opened in 1978. Dzurisin has lived in the building for a little more than a year. She has a bladder condition, and

The boy, who she says is academically gifted, was initially enrolled in kindergarten in the Nanticoke Area School District. She enrolled him in the cyber school starting in first grade because the district’s classes were not challenging enough, she said. He flourished at the cyber school. “In first grade he was already at a third-grade level,” she said. “His teachers at Connections Academy love him.” Hann also disputes allegations that her home was in deplorable condition, though she admitted there were towels on the bathroom that were used to soak up urine from her 44-year-old autistic brother, who lived with them. Due to his disability, he had trouble using the facilities, she said. She felt it was better to place the towels there than to allow urine to puddle on the floors, but insisted that she cleaned them regularly. She also acknowledged the boy did not cut up his own food, but says that was because he had a “phobia” regarding knives. “He had this thing about knives. He didn’t like them,” she said. As for rotting food and garbage, she flatly denied the allegation.

They had to have something to take him away,” she said. She alleges agency officials also pressured the boy into making up the sexual abuse allegations. “He was threatened by Children and Youth. They told him if he didn’t go along with the plan they would move him again,” she said. “Right now, he’s scared. I can’t blame him.

I.L. BASEBALL

Late add to lineup comes through

Chaos on the courts

PAUL SOKOLOSKI OPINION

Still looking for an opening to a glorious past

Nunez, replacing Russo minutes before first pitch, has three hits for SWB Yanks.

hree defenders were already in the backfield by the time Austin Scott caught a pitchout, so the former Penn State running back was dropped for a loss. The opposing coaches weren’t exactly at a loss for words over it. “Austin who?” one of them taunted. The truth is, Scott has been a forgotten man since he left high school. Back then, when he was running rampant at Parkland High School, Scott was every bit as exciting down in the Lehigh Valley as Rocket Ismail once was coming out of the backfield for Meyers. And every bit as unstoppable. But all that glory stopped for Scott once he got to Penn State. He went to college off one of the most illustrious high school careers Pennsylvania has ever seen. Scott gained a state-record 3,853 yards and 53 touchdowns during his senior season, when he led Parkland to a PIAA Class 4A state title. Everyone believed he was destined for even bigger moments in college. Until his final destination turned out to be Penn State. “I don’t want to say it was a bad decision,” Scott said. He can’t say it was a good one, either.

DURHAM, N.C. – Luis Nunez was carrying a .151 average when Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees manager Dave Miley inserted him into the lineup against the Durham Bulls on short notice Monday night. Regular second baseman Kevin Russo came up with a twinge in his back right before the first pitch, forcing Miley to make the emergency move. YANKEES And it made the manager look like a genius, as Nunez BULLS had three hits with two doubles – including a two-run double with two out in the 10th inning – as the Yankees claimed a 4-3 win to take three of four in the series at Durham Bulls Athletic Park. Nunez’s big hit followed backto-back, one-out singles from Gustavo Molina and Doug Bernier off Jake McGee (3-2). “I was looking for a good pitch – a fastball at that moment,” Nunez said through translation from catcher Jesus Montero. “I got a double and got the runs. “Both starting pitchers were good. (Durham’s Alex) Cobb was making good pitches, using his changeup or split-finger or something and was keeping it low. (The Yankees’ D.J.) Mitchell was throwing the ball fine. He had good sinkers and curveballs. He was making some mistakes, but that’s part of the game.” Durham scratched out a run in the bottom of the inning on Leslie Anderson’s single off Eric Wordekemper (3-0), but Brandon Guyer struck out with runners on first and third. Both starters had solid quality outings. Mitchell, who is from Rural Hall, N.C., about two hours away, went six innings and allowed two runs on five hits with four strikeouts against a walk. And Alex Cobb, the Bulls’ undefeated (5-0) ace, lasted six and gave up two runs on six hits with six strikeouts against a walk.

Upsets highlight wild day at Wimbledon By HOWARD FENDRICH AP Tennis Writer

WIMBLEDON, England — Walking away from Centre Court, Oracene Price — mother and sometimes-coach to Serena and Venus Williams — shook her head after watching one daughter lose at Wimbledon, then the other. Undeniably great as she is, even defending champion Serena found it too tough to make a deep run at her first Grand Slam tournament in a year after a series of health scares. And as successful as Venus has been at the All England Club, even she couldn’t muster her best after missing nearly five months with a hip injury. “I don’t think their layoffs helped their rhythm,” Price said. “They both seemed to be making the same kinds of mistakes. They were hit-and-miss, here and there.” They’re both headed home after straight-set exits in the fourth round against far-less-accomplished opponents Monday. First, 13-time major champion Serena lost 6-3, 7-6 (6) to ninth-seeded

LOS ANGELES — One of baseball’s proudest franchises is in tatters, its future to be decided more in the courtroom than on the field. The Los Angeles Dodgers filed for bankruptcy protection in a Delaware court Monday, blaming Major League Baseball for refusing to approve a multibillion-dollar TV deal that owner Frank McCourt was counting on to keep the troubled franchise afloat.

Mining opportunities He was under-used, under valued and despite his earned good name, he underachieved throughout his whole career at Penn State. It is a big reason why, at the age of 26, Scott is trying to hang onto his hopes of a pro career by playing semipro football with the NEPA Miners. “At 26, the clock is ticking,” Scott said. “I want to be smart with my time.” Was Penn State really a wise choice? Scott had his pick of college programs across the land when he came out of high school, but chose Penn State because he wanted his friends and relatives to watch him play. They got to watch him sit, mostly. Scott only got 100 carries as a Nittany Lions freshman – about three games worth of work for him at Parkland – and 121 combined during his sophomore and junior seasons in 2004 and 2005. A broken ankle forced him to red-shirt the next year. And as a fifthyear senior, Scott was dismissed from the team midway through the 2007 season after he was hit with charges, which were later dropped, of raping a fellow Penn State student. All that didn’t leave Scott dismayed about his time at Penn State. “I love Penn State and Nittany Nation,” said Scott, who graduated from the school in 2008 and had a tryout with the Cleveland Browns. “I can’t go back on the past and the decision.” Still, he has to wonder if things may have turned out different for him if he lined up in the backfield for another school. Or if he’d be in the NFL by now instead of trying to revive his career in something called the Major League Football Conference. “It’s all hindsight,” said Scott, who debuted for the Miners with 15 yards on six carries Saturday night. “The goal was to come out here, have fun and stay in shape. If things open up, then they do.” He sees a new door opening for him now, with a new opportunity. “I know he’s happy to be playing again,” Miners coach Dan Lamagna said. “I heard about him in high school. I saw him in the Orange Bowl.” That 2006 Orange Bowl, a 110-yard, two-touchdown performance, was one of his few shining moments for Scott at Penn State. It feels like a long time ago to him. He runs for the Miners now hoping time didn’t already run out for him. Paul Sokoloski is a Times Leader sports columnist. You may reach him at 970-7109 or email him at psokoloski@timesleader.com.

Dejarmbro lived up to the hype and then some in scoring a very easy and convincing win in the inaugural $500,000 Earl Beal Jr. Memorial Final this past Saturday at Pocono Downs. The 3-year-old son of Credit Winner made a quarter-pole move just past the opening stanza and never looked back, winning as much the best in a worldrecord equaling mile of 1:52.3. It was a huge statement made by the Trond Smedshammer-trained trotter that he is simply the best 3-yearold trotter in the country, and after that dusting of the hyped Pastor Stephen, who is to say otherwise? The misfortune for the connections, and the fans of this great sport, is that this horse is NOT eligible for the Hambletonian. BEST BET: BE FAMOUS (1ST) VALUE PLAY: OVERDRAFT (5TH)

MAJOR LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Dodgers pull off a Twin killing The Associated Press

MINNEAPOLIS — Matt Kemp had four hits, including his NL-leading 22nd home run, and the Los Angeles Dodgers had a little fun after a tough day by routing the skidding Minnesota Twins 15-0 Monday night. Chad Billingsley cruised through six innings, combining with three relievers on Los Angeles’ seventh shutout of the season. Casey Blake had a home run among his three hits for the Dodgers, who filed for bankruptcy protection in a Delaware court earlier in the day. Billingsley (7-6) allowed four hits and struck out four to win his second straight interleague start, backed by an offense that set season highs for runs and hits (24). Reds 5, Rays 0

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Jonny Gomes hit a towering homer, Mike Leake pitched six strong innings and the Cincinnati Reds beat the Tampa Bay Rays 5-0 on Monday night. Gomes, the former Rays’ outfielder playing at Tropicana Field for the first time since becoming a free agent after the 2008 season, hit a solo shot off an overhanging catwalk during a two-run fourth that made it 4-0. Brandon Phillips, who had four hits and two RBIs, added a run-scoring single off Jeremy Hellickson (7-7) later in the inning. Gomes has hit nine fair balls off the catwalks, the most at the St. Petersburg ballpark since it opened in 1998. Leake (7-4) scattered four hits, walked two and had three strikeouts in ending a personal two-start losing streak. Sam LeCure worked two innings before Nick Masset pitched the ninth to complete the six-hitter. Hellickson lost his fourth consecutive start, giving up four runs and eight hits in six innings. Over the right-hander’s skid, Tampa Bay has been outscored 20-1. Tigers 4, Blue Jays 2

day night. Max Scherzer struck out nine over seven strong innings and the AL Central leaders won their third straight, snapping Toronto’s three-game winning streak. In the makeup of a May 17 rainout, Tigers manager Jim Leyland was ejected in the seventh after a long argument that included a mocking impersonation of first base umpire Ed Rapuano changing his call on a close play. Adam Lind hit his 16th homer for the Blue Jays. With one out in the eighth, Magglio Ordonez singled off Marc Rzepczynski (2-2). Austin Jackson entered as a pinchrunner, and Shawn Camp came in to relieve Rzepczynski. Peralta sliced a liner into the

right-center gap and Jose Bautista missed an attempt at a sliding catch. The ball rolled to the wall before center fielder Rajai Davis could retrieve it, giving Peralta a standup triple. After the Blue Jays intentionally walked Alex Avila, Ryan Raburn beat out a double-play ball to drive in the fourth run.

gamer. Pena homered leading off the fourth and added a two-run shot in the fifth for his 20th career multi-homer game. Pena and Ramirez each drove in three runs.

Tiger ace is mauling the competition With several dominant outings, Verlander has turned into one of the game’s elite. By NOAH TRISTER AP Sports Writer

DETROIT — When the last batter swung and missed, giving Justin Verlander his 14th strikeout of the night, the tall right-hander finally allowed himself to step out of character. Before heading to the dugout, he pumped his right fist emphatically in a rare show of emotion for Detroit’s hard-throwing ace during a splendid first half of the season. Verlander has been among the American League’s elite for most of his career, but this year has taken another step forward. He threw his second career nohitter in May, the start of a sensational stretch that has vaulted him into the discussion for the Cy Young Award as the season nears its midway point. Verlander has made the dazzling look routine, taking the mound with a calmness he says helps his control. “I feel like I’m learning how to pitch better — learning how to use my stuff a little bit better,” Verlander said. “I feel like my fastball control this year has been a lot better than years pervious, and I think that has a lot to do with the mentality that I’ve been taking out there — just nice and methodical, nice and easy the first few innings and establishing a rhythm.”

Tiger’s pitcher Justin has made the jump from just staff ace, to one of baseball’s most dominant pitchers.

On Saturday, the Arizona Diamondbacks showed up at Comerica Park for an interleague game and performed about as expected for a team that doesn’t see Verlander much. He allowed four hits in eight scoreless innings, striking out that careerhigh 14. He finished his outing with a flourish, allowing a walk and a double in the eighth before striking out the last three hitters to hold the Diamondbacks without a run. “He throws fastball, curve, slider, change-up and they are all great pitches. We had heard that he would still be throwing hard late in the game, and he was just as tough in the eighth

inning as he was in the first,” Arizona’s Ryan Roberts said. “We’ve faced a lot of great pitchers this season, but he’s really up there.” Verlander’s no-hitter came May 7 at Toronto. He was within one eighth-inning walk — on a full count — of a perfect game. As tension mounted in the ninth, Verlander cracked a smile, and after the final out, he was thrilled but not overly demonstrative. It might not have been his best start of the season. In his next outing, Verlander reached the sixth inning before allowing a hit. Earlier this month, he took a no-hitter into the eighth before settling for a

two-hit shutout with 12 strikeouts. In his last four starts, Verlander has allowed two runs in 34 innings. He’s struck out 41 and walked three. On the season, he’s 10-3 with a 2.38 ERA, averaging nearly a strikeout an inning and holding opponents to a .178 average. “I think he’s gradually learning to calm down a little bit more and not get quite as hyper — not overthrow as much, not get quite as antsy in some situations,” manager Jim Leyland said. The 6-foot-5 Verlander works to keep his shoulder strong, and his relaxed demeanor can’t hurt when he’s trying to pitch deep into games. He’s averaged 115 pitches per start this season and can reach high numbers on the radar gun no matter the inning. On Saturday, he was clocked at 100 mph on the stadium scoreboard — on his 116th pitch. That endurance is one area in which Verlander has grown quite a bit since winning Rookie of the Year honors in 2006. “After about 60 or 70 pitches, I would feel like my arm was going to fall off,” he said. “I had never been through a full major league season. I didn’t know what it would take. That was a real wake-up call. I think I got really lucky that I didn’t get hurt.” Verlander has started at least 30 games in every full season with the Tigers, and in February 2010, they gave him an $80 million, five-year contract.

T H I S D A T E I N B A S E B A L L June 28 1910 — Joe Tinker of the Chicago Cubs became the first major leaguer to steal home twice in the same game, an 11-1 win over Cincinnati. 1919 — Carl Mays of Boston pitched two complete games against the New York Yankees. The Red Sox won the first game 2-0 and lost the nightcap 4-1. 1949 — Joe DiMaggio played his first series of the year after a bone spur operation and hit .455, with four home runs and nine RBIs, as the New York Yankees swept Boston at Fenway Park. 1970 — Pittsburgh swept the Chicago Cubs 3-2 and 4-1 in the Pirates’ final games at Forbes Field. 1984 — Dwight Evans of the Boston Red Sox completed the cycle with a three-run homer in the 11th inning to beat the Seattle Mariners 9-6. 1986 — Phil Niekro of the Cleveland Indians and Don Sutton of the California Angels became the first 300-game winners to start against each other in this century. Neither Niekro nor Sutton got a decision as the Angels scored six runs in the bottom of the eighth to win 9-3. 1987 — Mark McGwire homered twice to tie a major league record with five homers over two games, and Steve Ontiveros pitched a two-hitter as the Oakland Athletics beat the Cleveland Indians 10-0. 1994 — Matt Williams tied Willie Stargell’s 1971 NL record for home runs before July with his 28th in San Francisco’s 7-4 loss to Los Angeles. 2004 — David Bell became the first Philadelphia Phillies player in almost nine years to hit for the cycle as the Phillies beat Montreal 14-6. 2007 — Frank Thomas hit his 500th home run to become the 21st major leaguer to reach the career mark. Thomas hit a three-run shot in the first inning, connecting against Minnesota’s Carlos Silva. 2007 — Craig Biggio became the 27th player in major league history to get 3,000 hits in Houston’s 8-5 11-inning victory over Colorado. 2008 — Jered Weaver and Jose Arredondo combined to no-hit the Los Angeles Dodgers, but the Angels lost 1-0. It was the fifth game in the majors since 1900 in which the winning team didn’t get a hit, and first since Boston’s Matt Young lost one in 1992. 2009 — Mariano Rivera earned his 500th save, becoming the second reliever to reach the milestone, and the New York Yankees beat the Mets 4-2 for a Subway Series sweep. Rivera got four outs, securing the Yankees’ victory. Rivera even contributed offensively by drawing a bases-loaded walk from Francisco Rodriguez in the ninth for his first career RBI. It was the third regular-season plate appearance for the 39-year-old closer — and second in five days.

“We made some plays behind our pitchers,” Miley said. “That’s a good-hitting club and we’re obviously very happy to be able to win a couple one-run games in this series. “Russo came up about 30 seconds before the National Anthem and said his back had locked up. It makes me look smart, but that’s not the reason. We had already exchanged lineups. That’s how Nunez gets into the lineup. He keeps himself ready, and that’s a tip of the

ed about it,” Bulls manager Charlie Montoyo said. “Because we’re better than that. But they have good pitching, and their numbers are good for a reason.” NOTES: The Yankees will continue their road trip tonight, taking on the Norfolk Tides in the opener of a four-game set at Harbor Park. Southpaw Greg Smith (2-0, 0.61) will take on the Tides’ Chris Tillman (1-2, 4.56)… Attendance was 4,696… Yankees pitcher Carlos Silva was placed on the disabled list retroactive to Thursday with continuing shoulder problems. Fernando Hernandez (6-4, 5.91) has been called up from Trenton to take his spot.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL

Former N.C. State hero killed in bus wreck The Associated Press

RALEIGH, N.C. — Lorenzo Charles, the muscular forward whose last-second dunk gave underdog North Carolina State a stunning win in the 1983 national college championship game, was killed Monday when a bus he was driving crashed along a highway, a company official said Monday. Elite Coach general manager Brad Jackson said Charles, 47, worked for the company and was driving one of its buses on Interstate 40. No passengers were aboard. He grabbed Dereck Whittenburg’s30-footshotanddunkeditat the buzzer to give the Wolfpack a 54-52 win over heavy favorite Houston and its second national title, sending coach Jim Valvano spilling onto the court, scrambling for someone to hug in what has become one of the lasting images of the NCAA tournament. Whittenburg was despondent when discussing his teammate and friend with The Associated

Press. “It’s just an awful day,” Whittenburg said. “An awful, awful day.” Charles secured his spot in N.C. State lore in the final moments of that game in Albuquerque, N.M., to cap off an improbable run to the championship. N.C. State entered theNCAAtournamentwitha17-10 record, having beaten Virginia to win the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament and an automatic berth into the national field. No one expected much. “It’s still kind of amazing to me that...peoplearestilltalkingabout it,” Charles said in an excerpt from his comments about the championship game on his N.C. State Web page. Police released little about the one-vehicle crash that took Charles’ life. Video shows the windshield broken out with tree limbs sticking through the window frame. The rear wheels of the bus were on an embankment, leaving the right front tire elevated from the road.

This April 4, 1983 file photo shows North Carolina State’s Lorenzo Charles (43) dunking the ball in the basket to give N.C. State a 54-52 win over Houston in the NCAA Championship game in Albuquerque, N.M. A tour bus official says the former North Carolina State basketball star , was killed when a bus he was driving crashed in Raleigh. Charles was 47.

Crowder hints he sold game jerseys The Associated Press

MIAMI — Miami Dolphins linebacker Channing Crowder says college players should be able to sell their game jerseys — something he “hypothetically” did when he played for the Florida Gators. Crowder discussed the subject during the debut of his new twohour weekly talk show on WQAM radio in Miami. “I’ll say hypothetically I don’t have any more of my Florida jerseys,” Crowder said Sunday. “There were some Jacksonville

Bernier led off with a walk, followed by Austin Krum’s single to right and Nunez’s RBI-single to right. Krum then scored on Mike Lamb’s double-play ball to second. And the Bulls returned the favor off Mitchell in the bottom of the frame.

her first Grand Slam singles trophy, whereas the Williams sisters own a total of 20. “Definitely not our best day,” Venus said. “I think we both envisioned seeing this day going a little bit different.” And why shouldn’t they have? After all, Venus and her younger sister combined to win nine of the past 11 Wimbledon titles, including Serena’s victories in 2009 and 2010. They even played each other in four of the finals in that span. “Well, I never came here thinking I would lose,” said Serena, a former No. 1 whose ranking now will plummet to about 175th. “That’s my attitude.” It’s the first time since 2006 that neither Williams is in the Wimbledon quarterfinals; Venus lost in the third round that year, while Serena skipped that tournament because of a left knee injury. Of the 12 years that both entered the field at the All England Club, this is the first neither one made it past the fourth round. “Obviously, it’s not something planned,” Venus said. “We rarely lose on the same day.” That’s true: They last lost on the same day at a Grand Slam tournament on May 30, 2008, in the French Open’s third round. All in all, it was a topsy-turvy day at the All England Club. Set aside, for a moment, what went on with the Williams sisters, and digest Monday’s various other happenings: — Wozniacki still has yet to make it past the fourth round at Wimbledon after a1-6, 7-6 (5), 7-5 defeat against No. 24 Dominika Cibulkova; — defending champion and top-seeded Rafael Nadal initially thought he broke his left foot and might have to quit late in the first set, then lost the second set, but eventually beat 2009 U.S. Open champion Juan Martin del Potro 7-6 (6), 3-6, 7-6 (4), 6-4; — six-time Wimbledon champion Roger Federer dropped his first set of the fortnight — against

Not what you set out to do,” said Fish, who is 0-5 against Nadal heading into their quarterfinal. “It was, I guess, bad luck for the Williams sisters to lose. Unfortunate, I guess. They’ll be back, I’m sure.” They won’t be around for the women’s quarterfinals today, which are: Cibulkova of Slovakia vs. No. 5 Maria Sharapova of Russia; Bartoli of France vs. wild-card entry Sabine Lisicki of Germany; No. 8 Petra Kvitova of the Czech Republic vs. Pironkova of Bulgaria; and No. 4 Victoria Azarenka of Belarus vs. Tamira Paszek of Austria. It’s the first time since 1913 that the last eight women at Wimbledon are from Europe — and, as it happens, eight countries are represented. Sharapova is the only quarterfinalist who’s won a Grand Slam title; her three major championships include Wimbledon in 2004. After a day off, the men play their quarterfinals Wednesday. In addition to Nadal vs. Fish — assuming Nadal decides to play after getting an MRI exam on his foot — the matchups are No. 2 Novak Djokovic vs. Tomic; No. 3 Federer vs. No. 12 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga; and No. 4 Murray vs. unseeded Feliciano Lopez. “I’m worried, for sure,” Nadal said. Neither of the women who beat the Williams sisters Monday has won a Grand Slam title, although Bartoli did reach the Wimbledon final in 2007 — before losing to Venus.

ations, which would give him more time to seek a more favorable media contract. A hearing is set for today. “The action taken today by Mr. McCourt does nothing but inflict further harm to this historic franchise,” Selig said in a statement. The team is bleeding red ink instead of Dodger blue, with former players owed millions. Even beloved Hall of Fame announcer Vin Scully is owed more than $150,000 as part of his contract, court documents show. The filing by a cash-starved McCourt comes just days before he was expected to miss a team payroll on Thursday and possibly be confronted with an MLB takeover. Legal observers expect MLB to contest McCourt’s request for filing bankruptcy, arguing the dispute should remain within the confines of baseball. Baseball’s constitution allows Selig to take control of a team that seeks Chapter 11 protection. MLB would have to file a motion to seek termination of the franchise. A person familiar with the filing, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the situation is still in flux, said MLB will wait to see what happens in the hearing before deciding which way to go. The main issue is whether “the bankruptcy court maintains control of the proceedings or acquiesce to baseball,” said Edward Ristaino, who chairs the sports practice at the law firm Akerman Senterfitt. The Dodgers are meandering below .500 this season. First-year manager Don Mattingly acknowledged it was odd to think of the team filing for bankruptcy. “Obviously a franchise as storied as we are and entrenched in

PHILLY Continued from Page 1B

Ryan Howard said. “It should be a good, exciting series. We want to win every game. We know we’re going to have to step it up for these guys.” The teams will open a threegame set at Citizens Bank Park tonight with Cliff Lee (8-5) facing Josh Beckett (6-2). The Phillies have the best record in the majors at 49-30. The Red Sox, despite an awful start, are third-best at 45-32, just a half-game behind the New York Yankees in the AL East. “Right now, you just look at it as another series but in the back of your head you’re like, ‘I might be facing these guys in the playoffs,’” Red Sox slugger David Ortiz said. When Lee spurned the Yankees and took less money to come to Philadelphia last December, the only people happier than Phillies fans were Red Sox fans. “When he signed (with the Phillies), I was happy,” Red Sox manager Terry Francona said. “But he’s on a roll now. Those are fun games to play. You kind of go in knowing you’re not going to knock it around the ballpark, but those sure are fun games to be a part of.” Lee has thrown consecutive shutouts and hasn’t allowed a run in 23 innings. Beckett leads the majors with a1.86 ERA, but hasn’t pitched since tossing a one-hitter against Tampa Bay on June 15 because of the flu.

the history of the game, in a big city like LA, a great fanbase, to look at that and say this is happening,” Mattingly said before Monday night’s game at Minnesota. “It is different.” The Baltimore Orioles in 1993 and the Texas Rangers last year were sold in federal bankruptcy court, though in neither case did MLB seize the team first. In 2009, the Chicago Cubs went into bankruptcy for several weeks as part of the sales process after Tribune Co. agreed to sell the team to the family of billionaire Joe Ricketts. “For somebody who grew up as a Dodger fan since he was 6 in Brooklyn, this makes me very, very sad,” said Bob Daley, the Dodgers’ managing partner when Rupert Murdoch’s Fox Corp. sold the team to McCourt in 2004. The Boston-accented real estate developer bought the team in a highly leveraged $430 million deal that was the second-highest for a baseball team at the time. He became just the fourth owner in franchise history, and the sale marked the return of the team to family ownership, although the McCourt clan has been nothing like the O’Malleys. The O’Malleys owned the Dodgers or a stake in them for more than 50 years, an old-fashioned tenure of stability and tradition. Any problems were kept in-house, and employees were treated like family. The O’Malley family’s business was baseball. The McCourt family’s business has become everybody’s business. Two years ago, McCourt and his wife and former team CEO Jamie McCourt decided to divorce, prompting a tawdry fight over who owns the team. Their court filings revealed a lifestyle of excess, extreme even by the standards of LA’s superrich: multiple lavish homes, private security, country club memberships, even a six-figure hair stylist on call for the couple. “It’s not like he’s got a bad arm,” Francona said. “If he’s running out of gas a little bit, we’ll keep an eye on him. But it’s not like he’s hurt.” The matchup features the best pitching staff in the majors — the Phillies lead the league with a 3.05 ERA — vs. the best offense — the Red Sox lead with a .277 average. The trio of Lee, Roy Halladay (10-3) and Cole Hamels (9-4) have carried the Phillies so far. Injuries to Roy Oswalt and Joe Blanton have hurt the back end of the rotation. Halladay won’t pitch against the Red Sox. Vance Worley (2-1) goes on Wednesday and Hamels will move up a day and pitch on regular rest Thursday afternoon. John Lackey (5-6) takes the mound in the middle game for Boston and Jon Lester (9-4) faces Hamels in a duel between two of the top lefties in baseball. “I see it as Phillies vs. Red Sox,” Howard said. “I don’t try to get into offense vs. pitching, or all of that extracurricular stuff. That’s for ya’ll. I’m out on the field and that’s what I’m into, what’s going on in the game.” The Red Sox are missing Carl Crawford, who is out with a hamstring injury. Crawford, a top free-agent acquisition from Tampa Bay, played a key role in Boston’s turnaround after slumping badly and hitting just .155 in April. Ortiz also won’t be in the lineup because the designated hitter isn’t used in NL parks. Big Papi likely will be relegated to pinchhitting duties.

NFL

Source: Players meet with lawyers By BARRY WILNER AP Pro Football Writer

As the two sides in the NFL labor dispute work toward ending the lockout, a small group of players met Monday with their attorneys in Minneapolis. A person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press that the players’ side met on its own, without owners. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because no labor developments are being made public. Players were told in conference calls that there will be more negotiations this week involving Commissioner Roger Goodell, NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith, several owners and players at an undisclosed location.

Previous meetings between the sides took place in suburban Chicago, New York, the Maryland shore and Hull, Mass., about 18 miles south of Boston. The players have an antitrust suit against the league that was filed in Minneapolis, and the city also is where the sides met for court-ordered mediation in May. The lockout began on March 12, and players — except for when the work stoppage was briefly lifted in April — have not been allowed to train at team facilities or be in contact with any of their coaches. Players on several teams have gathered on their own, trying to keep in football shape so they’ll be prepared to get back to business on the field wheneverthelaborimpasseisover.

NASCAR

Temper getting best of Stewart Driver admits he purposely crashed Vickers, which led to costly payback at Sonoma. By JENNA FRYER AP Auto Racing Writer

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — It’s probably not the best time for Tony Stewart to assume the role of NASCAR’s traffic cop. The two-time champion continued his slide in the Sprint Cup Series standings Sunday at Infineon Raceway, where a 39thplace finish dropped him to 12th in points. It was an unacceptable outcome for Stewart, who had a car capable of contending for the win but had his day end when Brian Vickers intentionally sent the Chevrolet into a stack of tires. It was payback for Stewart wrecking Vickers earlier in the race, and Stewart understood — maybe even accepted — Vickers’ motivation. But he was unapologetic and insisted that he was right in initiating the chain of events that led to his wrecked race car. “I probably had it coming because I dumped him earlier, but I dumped him because he was blocking,” Stewart said. “If they want to block, that’s what is going to happen to them every time for the rest of my career.” That’s probably not the best attitude to have when your championship chances are suddenly on the line. The smarter thinking would probably be to race safe, to protect strong finishes and find a way to climb off the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship bubble. Yet this is how it goes sometimes with Stewart, who has a low tolerance for competitors who he deems are “driving like idiots.” This kind of thing has happened before, and it seems to stem from Stewart’s own frustration. He’s had plenty of that this season, beginning with a dis-

appointing end to the Daytona 500. In position to finally win NASCAR’s biggest race of the year by lining up second on the final restart of the race, Stewart was instead beaten by 20-year-old Trevor Bayne and faded to 13th over the last two laps. Cautions cost him a win the next week at Phoenix, and a team mistake on pit road ruined a dominating run the next week at Las Vegas. Three chances to win, and nothing to show for it. Those goose eggs are a tough pill to swallow now, as teams jockey for position in NASCAR’s new points system. Only the top 10 drivers in points will earn automatic berths into the Chase, with the final two wild cards being set aside for the highest ranking drivers with the most wins. Right now, Stewart would be safe because Brad Keselowski, with one win, wouldn’t be eligible to bump Stewart because he’s ranked 22nd in points. But Keselowski is only 12 points away from cracking the top-20, and thus bumping the 12th-place driver from the Chase.

So one would think that situation, and not policing on-track etiquette, would be Stewart’s bigger concern. Yet Stewart seems hellbent right now on enforcing an unspoken code of conduct between drivers. “I don’t know if its lack of respect or guys just pushing the envelope and not working with each other,” Stewart said. “There wasn’t any reason at that point of the race where he started blocking in the first place. It didn’t make sense to do it and I’m not going to tolerate it. I don’t race guys that way and I’m not going to let anybody race me that way. “So if they block they get dumped. Plain and simple.” But in this new day of “Boys, have at it,” Stewart will likely find that retribution is in every turn. For as adamant as Stewart was that he had every right to start this game with Vickers — who, by the way, denied blocking — Vickers was just as adamant that he was right to retaliate. “He made his bed at that moment, and he had to sleep in it,” Vickers said. “He made his

move and I addressed it. It’s a competitive environment and we all want to win. I don’t know why he wrecked me. That was his decision to make. But I’m good.” Drivers aren’t afraid anymore to stand up to Stewart, and he’s not running strong enough to command instant respect. He’s had only four top-10 finishes since the Las Vegas miss 13 weeks ago. He recognized that things were going south at StewartHaas Racing, and he ousted competition director Bobby Hutchens earlier this month. Stewart is just starting the search for a replacement, and it’s doubtful he’ll have anyone in place before the Chase begins. That leaves him with 10 weeks to turn the season around or risk missing the Chase for only the second time since its 2004 inception. Stewart doesn’t have much time to mess around, or put himself in position to be stuck on a stack of tires in a race he maybe could have won. Stewart needs to focus on himself right now, and stop worrying about everybody else.

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina — The mayhem that swept River Plate’s stadium following the famed soccer club’s relegation to the second division left 89 people injured and is threatening the upcoming Copa America tournament. The riots were sparked by rampaging fans humiliated by the team’s demotion for the first time in its 110 years despite a history that includes more league titles

than any Argentine club. In addition to those injured, police said 55 people were detained. Fans were sprayed with highpower water hoses — inside and outside the stadium — with police using tear gas, rubber bullets and hand-to-hand combat in a futile attempt to control the rioting. Inside the stadium, fans ransacked concession stands, ripped slats from seats and swung them at police. As fans scattered, they set fire to vehicles and rubbish bins around the stadium in the leafy suburb of Nunez, with many smashing windows and breaking into shops in upscale areas. Some had said the match should have been played in an empty stadi-

Mayhem began when successful club was demoted to the second division.

NEW YORK--Commissioner David Stern agrees with his players: NBA teams need to do a better job sharing revenues. They disagree over when that should happen, and what input the players should have in the system. Players contend that a revenue sharing plan belongs in the new collective bargaining agreement. Owners say the plan is coming, but only after the CBA is settled. “We’re of the opinion that any shortfalls that they’re suffering, that they can be rectified through revenue sharing,” players’ association executive director Billy Hunter said last week. “And while we’ve had some discussions about revenue sharing, they have not disclosed to us an iota of what their proposed revenue sharing plan might look like, what the contribution would be coming from the owners of the respective teams, et cetera.” Owners will be briefed on both collective bargaining and revenue sharing today during a Board of Governors meeting in Dallas, with the CBA set to expire at the end of Thursday. Owners and players then plan to meet Wednesday and/or Thursday, perhaps giving them one final chance to avoid a lockout. The union would surely like details of the board’s revenue sharing discussion, but isn’t likely to get much. “Whether or not that would precipitate a move by us beforehand or whatever has yet to be seen,” Hunter said. “But, yeah, we would definitely like to know and see it. We’d like to not only see it, but to incorporate it as far as the collective bargaining. It should be incorporated in the CBA.”

labor deal is,” he said. Stern has previously said the CBA and revenue sharing were on separate tracks, one needing to be completed before the other. Owners want to see what their savings will look like from the players before they commit to how much additional money would go to each other, but players want to be assured revenue sharing won’t be a tool to control salaries, such as by making teams stay below a certain spending limit to qualify for it. The league has projected losses of about $300 million this season. Players believe the number is lower and could be addressed if teams making money help those who aren’t, and called for expanded revenue sharing in their initial proposal for a new CBA. “When this whole process started, the first theme that we tried to agree on was that this needed to be a partnership. So if this is a partnership, we’re working from that concept, then you have to be willing to discuss all of these pieces, including revenue sharing,” Lakers guard and union president Derek Fisher said. “If they are reporting losses, if you’re trying to get to a certain point on the page, revenue sharing can help you in some way, even just a little bit.” Owners say it can’t, because the current system guarantees they will lose money and thus have nothing to share.

Having already shocked the United States in regional qualifying, Mexico now has a realistic chance of reaching the quarterfinals. Playing in sweltering early evening heat, the Mexicans pushed until the end. Ocampo’s goal was Mexico’s first at a World Cup in a dozen years, lifting the team after Fara Williams had scored with a fine header in the 21st minute to briefly give England the lead. “I didn’t like the beginning of it,” Mexico coach Leonardo Cuellar said in assessing the match. “I liked the end.” After the first round, Japan leads Group B with three points. England and Mexico have one and New Zealand none. Japan, ranked fourth in the world, did not play like the favorite. The taller New Zealand players put on a physical performance, often smothering the superior skills of Japan. Yuki Nagasato took a deep pass from Shinobu Ohno as New Zeal-

FRANKFURT, Germany — On a day of wonderful goals and woeful goalkeeping, Mexico had reason to celebrate at the Women’s World Cup. A 30-yard blast from Monica Ocampo gave Mexico a 1-1 draw against England on Monday in Wolfsburg, the biggest surprise so far after two days of the threeweek tournament. A superb curling free kick from star player Aya Miyama earlier sent Japan past New Zealand 2-1 in Bochum. The United States opens play in the 16-team tournament today, facing North Korea in Dresden in Group C. The deft scoring touch of Ocampo and Miyama was offset by the play of the goalkeepers for Japan and England that was hardly the stuff of brilliance. Ocampo’s dipping drive from far out in the 33rd minute was a beauty of a shot. Still, goalie Karen Bardsley had plenty of time to react. She trotted slowly to her right corner and put out her hands. It was too late. England coach Hope Powell said the ball might have swerved, but she was forced to draw an inevitable conclusion: “She should have saved it.” The goal recalled the blunder at the men’s World Cup last summer when English goalkeeper Robert Green cost England victory in its opener against the Unit-

How consumers are feeling

The Conference Board’s consumer confidence index for June is likely to show that people are anxious because of the weak economy and higher gas and food prices. Consumer sentiment fell to a six-month low in May. And the economic signals since then have been disheartening — especially the low number of jobs that were created last month. Another big drop in the confidence index could send stocks falling too.

The mattress company has struggled since the recession, and its fiscal second-quarter earnings report is expected to show it’s still trying to recover. Consumers have had to choose between replacing that old mattress or meeting the household budget — and essentials like food and gas have won. Sealy’s first-quarter results were also hurt by spending on new products and marketing as the company tried to get people interested in a good night’s sleep.

The housing market is in such bad shape that the best hope for the April reading in the S&P/Case-Shiller home price index might be no change. The March index showed that home prices in big metro areas had fallen to their lowest since 2002. And parts of the country that had weathered the housing market crash were now suffering. The spring selling season has been a disappointment; that is likely to be reflected in the April reading.

Traders open week upbeat Signs that a widespread European debt crisis could be averted helped send stocks up Monday. French banks agreed to accept slower repayment of Greece’s debt, giving Greece more time to meet its other financial obligations. Greek lawmakers also began debate on more budget-cutting measures. Analysts said the rally was stronger than the economic news would suggest in part because many traders invest when indices hit certain pre-determined price levels. All 10 industry groups in the S&P were higher, with financials, information technology and retail stocks showing the strongest gains.

WASHINGTON — For the first time in a year, Americans have stopped spending more. Consumer spending failed to budge from April to May, evidence that high gas prices and unemployment are squeezing household budgets. When adjusted for infla-

the Commerce Department reported Monday. April’s consumer spending figures were revised to show a similar decline when adjusting for inflation. It marked the first two-month decline in inflation-adjusted spending since April 2009. Incomes rose 0.3 percent

for the second straight month. But adjusted for inflation, after-tax incomes increased only 0.1 percent in May, after falling by the same amount in the previous month. Neil Dutta, an economist at Bank of America Merrill Lynch, said inflation-adjusted, after-tax income is now slightlylowerthanitwasinJanuary.

“It was a very poor report all around,” he said. “I think it’s clear that higher gasoline prices are taking a bite out of consumer spending.” But, gas prices peaked in early May at a national average of nearly $4 per gallon. Since then, they have dropped to a national average of $3.57 per gallon, according to AAA’s daily fuel gauge.

Fund buys into Facebook Facebook has sold about $6.6 million worth of its shares to the investment fund GSV Capital Corp. as the company is believed to be preparing for an initial public offering next year. GSV announced that it had purchased 225,000 shares in the world’s most popular social network on Monday morning, at an average price of $29.28 a share. The investment makes up about 15 percent of the publicly traded fund’s total portfolio. A $500 million investment into Facebook by Goldman Sachs and Digital Sky Technologies in January valued the company at $50 billion, though some anticipate the IPO will push the valuation as high as $100 billion.

Citigroup banker charged A former Citigroup vice president embezzled $19.2 million from the bank in a one-man “inside job” involving a series of secret money transfers, federal prosecutors said Monday. Gary Foster, 35, of Englewood Cliffs, N.J., surrendered Sunday at John F. Kennedy International Airport after arriving on a flight from Bangkok. He was released Tuesday on $800,000 bond after appearing in federal court in Brooklyn to face bank fraud charges carrying a maximum penalty of 30 years in prison.

China piling up debt China’s national audit office said Monday that local governments had amassed $1.65 trillion of debt by the end of last year and warned that much of the borrowing was unregulated and had trickled into the real estate and stock markets. The first-of-its-kind review highlights one of the biggest risks to China’s economy, which is bracing for a slowdown this year as it battles its highest inflation in nearly three years.

Real-world learning

By ANDREW M. SEDER aseder@timesleader.com

PLAINS TWP. – For Michelle Druby, a Misericordia University career camp offered the chance to hear what it’s like to be a nursing student and, once she graduates, a professional nurse. A field trip Monday away from the rural college campus to Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center gave her something else. In three hours, the 16-year-old Holy Redeemer senior and 18 other Nursing Career Exploration Camp participants got something they would not have if they stayed on the Dallas Township college campus all day. They met real nurses, saw firsthand what nursing entails and got to handle the equipment nurses use on daily basis.

“You can see what the job actually deals with and the kind of people they help,” said Druby, as she waited to walk through the Janet Weis Children’s Hospital wing of the hospital. “You get to see it in action instead of just hearing about it.” Madison Gallagher, a 17-year-old high school senior from Philadelphia, said she is committed to becoming a nurse and the camp was a good way to not only learn about the profession but also to interact with other students and to see Misericordia, which she’ll likely apply to. Before learning to use a portable ventilator, bladder scanner and an automatic external defibrillator, Gallagher said that she “was most excited” when she found outthefieldtripwaspartofthethree-day, two-night camp. “I was so excited about

the whole hands-on thing,” the Little Flower High School student said. The nursing camp is one of eight career camps the university offers this summer. Participants came from New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. Heather Krzywicki, a 17-year-old Crestwood High School senior from Mountain Top, said the experience made her feel even stronger about wanting to become a nurse. “Helping sick people makes me happy,” she said. She said that she knew nurses worked hard and had a reputation for being the first line of help for the infirm, but her quick glimpse into their real life duties surprised her. “Nurses do a lot more than I thought they did,” Krzywicki said, before adding that she can’t wait to be one.

Hacker group quits, but we’re not out of the woods yet IN MANY WAYS the Internet is like the Wild West. Poor regulation, underdeveloped laws, and even “banditos” in the form of hackers complete the image. You’re at risk of having your identity stolen. You could get duped, or have your computer infected with malware or viruses. And, just like the Wild West, people keep coming. The Internet is too lucrative, too convenient, and most important, too necessary to our lifestyle to stop using. For the past two months, a group fancifully styling themselves as “LulzSec” has been causing mayhem on the online frontier. They broke into major corporate and government databases and then spewed the information out for all to see, before suddenly calling it quits a few days ago. In most cases, the people affected by the release of this data were not targeted directly – they’re just caught in the crossfire. It’s far more efficient to target large corporations. But when a hacker group distributes corporate information, it can and frequently does contain things like

A few tips: Use a “disposable” email address for online purchases — one that’s different from your “established” identity. If the e-mail is acquired by spammers, shut it down and register a new one. Rotate passwords frequently. Use Capital letters, numbers, and special characters for each. You may want to have a credit card specifically for online transactions — preferably with a low limit. That way if someone gets their hands on the information, you will know what you did and did not purchase, the damage is relatively limited, and you’ll spend a lot less time trying to untangle the mess.

Analyst sees jobs upside By ANDREW M. SEDER aseder@timesleader.com

Unemployment rates in all 14 of Pennsylvania’s metropolitan statistic areas either rose or remained static in May. But that’s not necessarily proof that the business climate is worsening, according to one analyst. Steven Zellers, an industry and business analyst with the Center for Workforce Information & Analysis, said the economy is actually showing signs of strengthening and that’s raising unemployment rates because the civilian labor force is growing. In the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre MSA, which includes Lackawanna, Luzerne and Wyoming counties, the unemployment rate grew two-tenths of a percentage point from April to May, to 8.7 percent. The rate was again the highest in Pennsylvania. The three-county civilian labor force grew by 1,200 from May 2010 and by 2,500 from April. Zellers said the increase in unemployment isn’t necessarily a result of more people losing their jobs but instead more people who had given up looking for work have restarted job searches. He noted that many people who decided to re-enter the labor pool found mixed results and that helped change what had been a year-long progression of decreases in the unemployment rate. “When you get a generally improving market, people come out of the woodwork. And not all of them could find a job. That brings it up a bit,” Zellers said. John Sumansky, the chairman of the business department at Misericordia University, agreed the surge in job pool candidates contributed to the increase. “Since May of last year, labor force growth practically has been nonexistent. Individuals just were not sure there were jobs out there worth their time to look for. In May 2011, data indicate a fairly significant onemonth growth in the labor force – an indicator that individuals are more hopeful that they will find jobs,” Sumansky said. “So, while it is unfortunate that there are still folks who are unemployed, the bright side is that there are now 3,600 more jobs in the region than there were a year ago.” Anthony Liuzzo, director of the master of business administration program at Wilkes University, said the redirection of the unemployment rate was “a step back, no doubt.” But it was not unexpected, either. While he can’t say for certain why the numbers rose – Liuzzo agreed partially with Zellers’ explanation for the jump – he does strongly believe that we’re not on track for a “double dip” recession. “I am not of the opinion that we’re going into another recession,” Liuzzo said. “We have an economy that is recovering and it’s recovering very slowly.”

It’s a tricky time for bond investors. The Federal Reserve’s $600 billion bond-buying program known as QE2 ends Thursday. Q&A WITH JOE BALESTRINO, CHIEF FIXED-INCOME STRATEGIST AT FEDERATED INVESTORS

Some well-known investors have warned that the market for Treasurys could fall sharply when the Fed exits. Time to escape? Probably not, says Joe Balestrino, chief fixed-income strategist at Federated Investors. In a recent conversation with The Associated Press, Balestrino explained why bond markets may hold up better than many expect. What will happen after the Fed ends its bond-buying program? QE2 didn’t translate into any real, legitimate (economic) growth. Everyone knows it supported stock prices. So without the Fed’s support, stocks go down and bonds go up. We’re not reducing our bond holdings simply because the biggest buyer is going away.

They’ll be replaced by people exiting higher-risk investments. The pain of losing money dwarfs the joy of making money. People are very quick to leave the stock market if they get nervous again. People have predicted interest rates would soar for two years now. Why hasn’t that happened yet? Most of the domestic economic data points to a slowdown. That’s always bond-friendly. We were pulled out of recession by emerging-market growth. And if they’re trying to slow down their growth and we’ve not proven we have a sustainable recovery without government support, well, it leads to uncertainty and worry. And that drives people to Treasurys.

If interest rates are bound to rise at some point, which means bond prices will eventually fall, shouldn’t you avoid bonds? This past week (Fed Chairman Ben) Bernanke told us that growth is going to be much slower than the Fed thought it would be. Fast-forward a year from now and hopefully the economy is stable and rates should go up. But it’s better to earn a little bit of money until that happens than to risk a more significant loss in the stock market. We’ve already seen what negative economic data can do to stocks. If you avoid bond funds, where do you go? Do you go to cash and get virtually zero or do you take more risk? Somewhere in between isn’t the worst place to hide.

A more humid air mass has arrived for today out ahead of a cold front that will push through tonight. We will get enough sunshine today to destabilize the atmosphere to the point of having some showers form and possibly a few thunderstorms this afternoon. I do not expect any severe storms but localized heavy downpours are possible up until around 8 p.m. A northwest wind tomorrow will usher in cooler and less humid air and both tomorrow and Thursday will be rain free. For now, our weather for the Fourth of July is looking good with near normal temperatures. -Tom Clark

A recent survey by AllRecipes.com found that 75 percent of cooks are eating more healthfully these days. We wondered if that emphasis on health carried over to celebrity chefs and food experts. So, we contacted three: Meeru Dhalwala, Steven Raichlen and Michelle Bernstein. Not surprisingly, they’re part of the trend and have useful tips for those of us still struggling to eat healthier. Meeru Dhalwala The author of “Vij’s at Home:

Sunscreen’s seven truths

kin cancer and premature aging of the skin are some of the dangers of tanning beds and sunbathing that effect all ages and demographic groups, said Dr. Christine Cabell, a dermatologist with Geisinger Medical Group, Plains Township. Cabell, a specialist in Mohs micrographic surgery, said she performs an estimated 700 surgeries a year to remove different forms of skin cancer. Mohs micrographic surgery is a specialized procedure where skin cancer is removed one layer of tissue at a time. Summer is here, and many people turn to tanning beds to obtain that perfect tropical tan. But they might be walking away with more than a tan. Cabell explained a tanning bed exposes a person to highly concentrated levels of ultraviolet A energy, also known as UV-A, for short amounts of time which causes long-term cellular damage. There are three ultraviolet categories on the solar spectrum. According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, UV-A is a carcinogenic and makes the cellular damage from UV-B

Many people still don’t use sunscreen correctly, dermatologists say. Here are seven truths you may not know: Sunscreen takes time to start working. Instead of slathering on lotion when you’re already outside, apply it 20 to 30 minutes before leaving the house. A high SPF isn’t failsafe. Even products with SPF 50 or higher won’t block all of the sun’s rays. No matter how high the number on the bottle, you need a thick coating and reapplications every one to two hours. It’s never too late to protect yourself. Even if you’ve had frequent sunburns in the past, you can still reduce your risk of skin cancer now. Daily sunscreen use will slow the growth of existing precancerous sun spots as well as reduce the num-

Q: I was recently informed by my orthopedist that the DePuy right hip replacement that I received a couple of years ago is being recalled because of defective components. My orthopedist had me check a blood level for cobalt, which was abnormally high at 12. What will cobalt toxicity do to me? So far, all I seem to have is an unexplained itchy leg rash for one year. — V.F., Canton, Ga. A: Your DePuy ASR prosthetic hip is defective, breaking down its alloy components into tiny flakes of cobalt and chromium which have entered the surrounding tissues and your bloodstream. A normal cobalt blood level should be below 5 mcg/l; your level of 12 is considered toxic. I agree that the itchy rash you’ve had for the past year is likely due to cobalt toxicity. While we need a trace amount of cobalt to aid in the formation of the insulating (myelin) sheath for peripheral nerves as well as to aid in red blood cell production, too much of it can cause peripheral neuropathy, visual impairment, heart muscle damage (cardiomyopathy), hearing loss, cognitive (brain ) impairment and hypothyroidism. Chromium is needed in trace amounts to help regulate blood sugar. Chromium toxicity from the defective prosthesis has not been an issue thus far. I have to concur with your orthopedist that the best course of action is to replace your defective and toxic hip with a safe one. Q: I was diagnosed in 1999 with cancer in my left breast, and two of my friends also had breast cancer on the left side. At my last checkup, I asked the nurse and she also thinks that breast cancer occurs much more often in the left breast. Is that so? — F.R., Sarasota, Fla. A: Actually, left-sided breast cancer only occurs 5 percent more often than right-sided breast cancer. For your nurse and me, it would appear that left-sided breast cancer is much more common than that because the left arm is generally used to take one’s blood pressure. In the case of a left-sided mastectomy with lymph node removal, it’s advisable to avoid use of the left arm. This deviation from the blood pressure routine makes us take more note of left-sided breast cancer. The U.S. Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results Program (SEER) looked at 250,000 cases of breast cancer from 1973-1992. They confirmed the results from numerous other studies that there is a 5 percent excess of left-sided breast cancer in women. This excess occurs for all races and stages of disease. The reason for this is unknown. One possible explanation is that the left breast tends to be, on average, slightly larger than the right; more breast tissue might explain a slightly greater than 50-50 chance of left-sided breast cancer. Why that’s the case is another enigma. Dr. Mitchell Hecht is a physician specializing in internal medicine. Send questions to him at: “Ask Dr. H,” P.O. Box 767787, Atlanta, GA 30076.

worse. The third category, UV-C, is mostly absorbed by the ozone layer, except where pollution has created holes in the atmosphere, Cabell said. Over time, this cellular damage develops into a skin cancer as wells as causes premature aging of the skin. Tanning salons, however, offer no protection other than eyeglasses, Cabell said. “They do offer tan accelerators,” she said. Several area tanning salons were contacted for information on protection offered to patrons or if a release form with the risks of tanning bed use is explained, but all refused to comment. TheFoodandDrugAdministration and the World Health Association are trying to pass a bill which would require anyone younger than the age of18 years old to have a parent’s written permission to use a tanning bed, Cabell said. This is an effort to prevent young adults and teens from being exposed to the harmful effects of the high energy emitted by tanning beds. Cabell said the younger the person is the greater their risk is. She explained children have less pigment to their skin and prolong exposure now and continued exposure throughout their life will result in skin cancer.

BUBBA’S eyes are tearing constantly and have been for some time. His owners wipe his eyes at least 10 times a day, but the tears keep coming. The 3-year-old boxer rubs his eyes on occasion, but overall is not too concerned. The problem has reached the point where there are tear tracks below the inner portion of both eyes and the hair in that area is disappearing. What should be done? All together now, “Take Bubba to his veterinarian.” Tear production is a normal function. Tears bathe the eyeballs with a clear, slightly viscous solution that moistens and protects the outer layer of the globe and the lining of the lids. Tears drain from the eye through the nasolacrimal puncta and nasolacrimal duct and into the nose. From there, they reach the back of the nasal passages, drop into the back of the oral cavity and are swallowed. There are cases where these ducts can be plugged, causing tears to fall out of the eyes instead of draining into the nose. This may be Bubba’s problem, but there are other possibilities. I suspect that Bubba is producing excess tears and overwhelming the nasolacrimal ducts’ ability to drain the tears. This happens in people when they cry. I do not, however, think Bubba is crying. There is a condition called entropion that causes excess tearing. This condition involves the inward

this goal, but the key is not to flip out or turn this effort into a strict chore. It’s when we put too much pressure on ourselves that we feel constrained and stressed.

With this inward rolling, hairs along the border of the lids come in contact with the eyeball, causing irritation during blinking. This condition is usually genetic and is more common among certain breeds, among them boxers. Treatment for entropion usually involves surgical correction of the rolled lids by removing excess lid tissue and creating a normal lid margin, sort of a lid tuck. Another possibility is dystichiasis, in which tiny hairs protruding from the lid margins come in contact with the eyeball during blinking, thus causing irritation. This irritation then leads to tearing. Dystichiasis requires surgery. We can attempt to epilate each of the offending hairs, which removes the irritation. There is potential for regrowth, which then would require another procedure. There are many cases of dystichiasis that can be resolved using an entropion procedure as described above. By simply rolling the lid margin outward, the dystichia no longer contacts the eyeball and the irritation is eliminated. The cause of Bubba’s tearing problem should be fairly straightforward, and so will the treatment. Jeff Kahler is a veterinarian in Modesto, Calif.

Tanning beds exposes a person to highly concentrated levels of ultraviolet A energy for short amounts of time which causes long-term cellular damage, says Dr. Christine Cabell, a dermatologist with Geisinger Medical Group, Plains Township.

There are a variety of skin cancers, but the most recognized is Melanoma. The American Cancer Society estimates120,000 cases of melanoma are diagnosed each year. “If not detected early, Melanoma can be deadly,” Cabell said. Sunbathing can be just as harmful. Cabell said it takes longer exposure to UV-A and UV-B rays from the sun to reach the same tan level as from a salon, and skin cancer, skin aging and eye problems are still hazards.

She said the Food and Drug Administration is implementing new guidelines for sunscreen labels to better inform consumers of the quality of protection. New terminology such as “broad spectrum” will be used to let consumers know the product will block both UV-A and UV-B rays. Terminology such as “sun block,” “sweat proof” and “waterproof” will be removed and “water resistant” will be allowed. Cabell recommends using a broad spectrum sunscreen, about

SPF15, hats, sunglasses, and shaded areas when outside for extended periods of time. A good rule of thumb, is to reapply sunscreen every two hours or sooner when sweating or swimming for the best protection. She advises the best way to reach that healthy glow of summer is to use sunless tanners. “They have come a long way from when they were first introduced,” she said. “They are not orange anymore and are a great, safe alternative.”

into the sun can make you more susceptible to damage. If you want to self-tan, apply the color the night before -and then put on a regular coat of sunscreen during the day. You can have a base tan and still burn. Even if you look like a bronze god, don’t

skip the sunscreen. You can put sunscreen near your eyes. In fact, five to 10 percent of all skin cancers appear on eyelids. Carefully rub regular sunscreen on your lids or look for specially formulated products for sensitive facial skin, and wear a wide-brimmed hat.

Sunscreen doesn’t increase sweating. Research instead has found it can temporarily cool you down by blocking the sun’s rays from penetrating your skin. If lotions do bother you, especially during exercise, try sunscreen sticks which are waxier and won’t run.

sautéing them instead. Rigid diets with no taste are wrong on all fronts — they are a disservice to our love of food and the role of food in our lives. Food must taste good in order for us to consistently eat healthily. And breaking a diet plays havoc on our self-esteem. Fake foods such as margarine and cooking sprays aren’t healthful. We all need a bit of fat in our bodies, but real fat. Don’t be scared of butter and cream, and if you have to choose between takeout versus some vegetables and chicken or beans sautéed in some butter, choose the route of the sauté.” Food recommendations: Beans and lentils. Onion, garlic and butter. Tomatoes — canned in winter and fresh in the summer. Goat.

Along with her husband, restaurateur David Martinez, she also operates Michelle Bernstein at The Omphoy in Palm Beach. She is also the author of “Cuisine a Latina” (2008). Eating healthier: As I’ve gotten older, I realized that standing on my feet all day, trying to stuff my face with a quick meal (without even thinking about what’s in it or what it is at all) and eating very late after service was just making us feel awful. My husband and I started an exercise regimen, forced ourselves to

eat something good and healthy first thing in the morning, and enjoy a proper lunch. We also found that time spent together with forks and knives in hand made it possible for us to actually have a conversation from time to time. Tips for eating better: Cook for yourself at least seven meals a week; breakfast, lunch or dinner. That’s just one-third of the time. That way, you’ll know every little thing you put into your food. Don’t let the focus be so much about the protein, that should be the afterthought. Think bright colors. Food recommendations: I love kale; it’s delicious.

“ The Road back...to the The Back Mountain” R.D. Clements Dentistry in Dallas is pleased to welcome Dr. Duane R. Sprau as the new associate to their staff.

Wyoming Valley Mall patio food court

When Duane Sprau was 5 years old living on Church Street in Dallas, his family switched dentists and became patients of Dr. Bob Clements. He remembers that after that switch, his family thought going to the dentist was actually fun.

Quality Chinese Food

A soccer player for Dallas High School with a proclivity for the sciences , Duane went off to Penn State Main Campus. But instead of studying the sciences, he went on to study finance. As it turned out, the sciences were really his love. After receiving a B.S in Finance, he re-enrolled at Penn State to fulfill science credits needed for dental school. In May of 2010, Duane obtained his Doctorate in Dental Medicine at the Temple University Kornberg School of Dentistry.

Then I found out about the Neuropathy Center. After just the second treatment I started getting feeling back in my feet which continued with every visit! Since I have had the treatments I am back to work, taking less pain medications and am able to live a more pain free life. I deﬁnitely recommend the Neuropathy Center and already have! The caring staff treat you like family and they have got me back to the life I was missing! Thank you Neuropathy Center!

At Cloud9, our fitness philosophy goes against all you have been told before. One has to question what you have been told and by whom. It seems everyone is a self-proclaimed fitness expert, although not everyone has the physique to back up their philosophies. It is great to question the validity of something. Give us a chance, at least 3 months, and then you can be as skeptical as you want if you don’t notice any results.

TUESDAY, JUNE 28, 2011 PAGE 7C

On family’s vacations, three’s company and any more is a crowd Dear Abby: My son is single and enjoys vacationing with us every summer. He pays all his expenses. My married daughter has become jealous. Her financial situation is such that I would have to pay her expenses if she were to vacation with us. We also have a compact SUV, so when our luggage is in the car, there’s room for only one other person besides my wife and me. Am I showing partiality to my son, who does not have a spouse to travel with and is able to pay his own way? — Dad in Des Moines Dear Dad: I can see how hearing about the enjoyable trips your son

DEAR ABBY ADVICE shares with you every summer might sting when your daughter hears about them. But does she expect that you include her husband on these trips and pay his way, too? And what about the driving and luggage arrangements if her husband accompanies her? A more practical alternative would be to figure out some other activity you, your daughter and her spouse can enjoy together that doesn’t involve travel. Dear Abby: I’m a widow in love with a wonderful man. We have decided to live together for a few months before

UNIVERSAL SUDOKU

getting married. Had we done this with our former spouses, we could have avoided marriages that led to divorce. My mother has always said living together before marriage is a good idea. That was, until I told her my fiance and I plan to. She went ballistic! She said it’s OK for others, but not HER daughter. Her main concern is what people may think or say to her. I told her to simply say, “It’s my daughter’s business, and she’s old enough to make her own decisions.” I’m upset by Mother’s reaction. She seems to think that because she gave me life she has the right to run it. I’m a mature, responsible adult who can make her own life decisions. What do you think? — Shacking Up in Syracuse

CRYPTOQUOTE

Dear Shacking Up: I think that as a mature, responsible adult, you need to do what is right for you. Your mother comes from a generation when standards were more straightlaced and judgmental than they are today. So remember she loves you, forgive her for “going ballistic” and agree to disagree. Dear Abby: I am madly in love (infatuated?) with my surgeon. I had a bilateral mastectomy and he saved my life. The cancer is gone. It has been almost a year, and I need to return for a checkup. I haven’t stopped thinking about “Dr. Dreamy” this entire year. We are both in our 40s; I’m single, he’s single. Would it be unethical if I act on my feelings and let him know? Should I

get another doctor? Or do I just go to the appointment and “grin and ‘bare’ it”? Help! — “George” On My Mind in Phoenix Dear “George” On Your Mind: You have nothing to lose by baring your soul as well as the rest of you at the time of your checkup. However, if there is mutual interest, it would be unethical of Dr. Dreamy to become involved with you while you are his patient. To receive a collection of Abby’s most memorable — and most frequently requested — poems and essays, send a business-sized, self-addressed 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). You care a great deal — perhaps even more than is healthy for you or effective for the situation. Consider dialing it back. What would happen if you let go just a little? Trust in life’s process. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You may not be entirely happy with the way you come across when the pressure is on. Give yourself credit anyway. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). At this point, it would be nice to have a friend to help you understand your life — someone with objectivity, wisdom, emotional intelligence and a gift for gentle communication. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Some jobs take only a matter of seconds, and yet you still can’t be bothered. That’s because you’re so focused on what matters to you now. You can always clean up the rough edges later. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your sense of self-worth will improve when you consciously decide to raise it up. Write down 10 things you like about yourself, and carry the list in your wallet. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are genuinely interested in others — where they are coming from, their stories and what they know. So you don’t think first about how it all applies to you; you just listen. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You will be somewhat disappointed in the actions of those around you. They can’t help that their perceptions are so different from yours, and they are only acting on what they know. Still, you feel the need to educate them.

MINUTE MAZE JUMBLE BY MICHEAL ARGIRION & JEFF KNUREK

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

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Do what makes you happy. When your heart sings, everything else in your life sways to the rhythm. Nothing beats the feeling. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You check in with people and let them know that you care about their happiness. If there’s anything you can do to increase the satisfaction of those around you, you do it, and it doesn’t feel like work to you at all. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll notice the needs and contributions of others, so mention what you see. Your comments will foster a mood of involvement and connection. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Fear is quite often self-preserving and lifesaving. So don’t berate yourself for feeling afraid, even if others are not afraid of the same thing. Perhaps your wariness shows greater intelligence. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Most people are too focused on themselves to give you the praise and encouragement you so deserve now. It will boost your self-esteem to imagine what others would be saying if they were more perceptive and tuned in to you. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 28). You achieve a heroic level of maturity. You forgive the past and rewrite it to support the success story of your future. Through wisdom and discipline, you attain a goal in July. Invest in yourself in October. Financial gain comes in April. Aries and Pisces people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 50, 25, 2, 15 and 1.
