In historic move, Standard & Poor calls the federal deficit reduction effort insufficient.

WASHINGTON — The United States has lost its sterling credit rating. Credit rating agency Standard & Poor’s on Friday lowered the nation’s AAA rating for the first time since granting it in 1917. The move came less than a week after a gridlocked Congress finally agreed to spending cuts that would reduce the debt by more than $2 trillion — a tumultuous process that contributed to convulsions in financial markets. The The move promised cuts came after were not enough Congress to satisfy S&P.

One of the biggest questions after the downgrade was what impact it would have on already nervous investors. While the downgrade was not a surprise, some selling is expected when stock trading resumes Monday morning. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 699 points this week, the biggest weekly point drop since October 2008. “I think we will have a kneejerk reaction on Monday,” said Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at Harris Private Bank. But any losses might be shortlived. The threat of a downgrade is likely already reflected in the plunge in stocks this week, said Harvey Neiman, a portfolio manager of the Neiman Large Cap Value Fund. “The market’s already been shaken out,” Neiman said. “It knew it was coming.” One fear in the market has See RATING, Page 9A

Mayor’s no friend on Facebook page

A social media site serves as be looked into, but nothing has a vehicle for opponents of the happened yet.” Cibello said while the Facetwo-term Tom Leighton. book site was created to help By BILL O’BOYLE boboyle@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – Opponents of Mayor Tom Leighton are using Facebook to try to unseat the two-term incumbent Democrat. Stephanie Sekunda Cibello and Charlotte Raup are listed as the site administrators for the Facebook site: Citizens against 3rd term for Tom Leighton WB. As of Friday afternoon there were 143 friends of the site that was established about a year ago by Cibello, 28, of Bear Creek Township. “It’s not to be disrespectful to the mayor,” Cibello said. “We want to let the public know what goes on behind closed doors at City Hall.” Raup joined as a site administer to filter complaints her Crime Watch Facebook page was receiving about the mayor. Raup ran unsuccessfully against Leighton in the Democratic spring primary. “We really don’t want that on the Crime Watch site,” Raup said. “So we filter those complaints to the site created by Cibello. It’s like a complaint board where people vent how they feel.” Cibello said she grew up in Wilkes-Barre and graduated from Meyers High School. Her parents still live in the city, across from a building where there appears to be illegal drug activity, she said. “We have contacted the city, but there has been no resolution,” Cibello said. “I have called, my parents have called and others have called as well. We’re told that the situation will

her parents, it has now become a discussion place for city issues. “People started jumping on,” she said. “We’re finding out a lot of things about what’s been going on in the city.” Cibello said the Facebook site has generated activity and interest in city government. “I encourage all city resident to go to the site and read the posts,” Cibello said. “I’m supporting (Republican) Lisa Cope for mayor.” Betsy Summers, a Libertarian, is also in the mayoral race. Cibello said she will be going to City Council meetings to air her concerns and the concerns of others raised on the Facebook page. The use of social media sites in political races has been on the rise the last few years with sites like Facebook, You Tube and Twitter being prime areas for candidates to get their messages out and for critics to counter the candidates’ claims. Leighton said he realizes Facebook is a new political tool for organizing supporters and distributing messages quick. “I use Facebook to communicate to the city and my volunteers. I would expect my opponents to do as well,” he said. According to Pew Internet & American Life, a project of the Pew Research Center, social media have become a regular part of the political scene. The Pew reports noted that “some 22 percent of online adults used Twitter or social networking sites such as Facebook or MySpace in the months leading up to the November, 2010 elections to connect to the campaign or the election itself.”

A federal judge releases letters supporting the former Lackawanna County commissioner. By MARK GUYDISH mguydish@timesleader.com

SCRANTON – Former Lackawanna County Commissioner Robert Cordaro is “kind, trustworthy and loyal,” “exemplifies strong moral fiber and character,” and is a “kind, concerned, compassionate, understanding father and friend,” according to letters submitted to the federal judge contemplating Cordaro’s sentence for a corruption conviction. Senior U.S. District Judge A. Richard Caputo publicly released seven letters sent to him since Cordaro and former Commissioner A.J. Munchak were convicted by a jury on June 21. One letter Cordaro praises Munchak, the others support Cordaro. “I feel that we can always count on Bobby for assistance in any pressing matter,” wrote Linda and John Yantorn, who said they knew Cordaro for more than three decades. “He’s very kind, trustworthy and loyal.” “Robert Cordaro is a dedicated member of many organizations in the community where he has donated countless hours of his time,” Michele Polito wrote. “When Hurricane Katrina hit and ravaged my home, my law practice and my life,” former Dunmore resident John Sileo wrote, “Bob was also there to lend his hand.” “Bob was always interested in public service and tried to do the job to the best of his ability. I feel Bob can be a benefit to the community if allowed to do community service instead of incarceration in a federal prison,” wrote William Mecca, a professor at The University of Scranton. The lone letter supporting Munchak came from Illinois attorney Paul Franciszkowicz, who wrote that he has known Munchak “for close to 24 years,” and that he is a dedicated father. “It is unthinkable that the pending criminal convictions will take away from this family someone who has been such an integral part of their lives.” Such letters are common during the lull between conviction and sentencing. The vast majority seek leniency, but some people write encouraging a judge to be stern. The judge need not consider the letters in deciding on a sentence. The letters are not automatically public, but can be released at the judge’s discretion. Letters were first released in the local federal corruption probe when several members of the media petitioned U.S. District Judge Richard Conaboy to release letters written on behalf of or against former Luzerne County Judge Michael Toole. Conaboy released most, citing confidentiality for those that involved family or medical matters.

A Baby Boy headstone at the St. Anthony Padua Cemetery.

Death of infant still a mystery The unidentified baby boy was found dead in the now-closed West Side Landfill.

By EDWARD LEWIS elewis@timesleader.com

COURTDALE – Crabgrass and dirt surround the tiny grave marker of a baby boy found dead in the now-closed West Side Landfill in Larksville 31 years ago today. The boy has never been identified and no one has ever been charged in the infant’s abandonment that resulted in his death. A bulldozer operator spreading garbage found the deceased infant in the afternoon of Aug. 6, 1980. The operator stopped after seeing what he initially believed was a toy doll. An autopsy by the then-Luzerne County Coroner Dr. George Hudock Jr. showed the boy was alive for 24 to 72 hours after birth and “expired due to acts of omission in that the infant was

not provided proper care at birth,” according to records from the coroner’s office. Then-Deputy Coroner Andrew Strish kept the baby’s body for 10 days, hoping someone would come forward. When no one did, the boy was buried Aug. 18, 1980, in a remote area in St. Anthony of Padua’s Cemetery. The grave site itself is away from other tombstones on a hill. A brief funeral service was held for the infant. A yellow rose was placed on the grave, and a couple from Berwick, who presumably read of the child’s death, placed a bouquet of daisies at the site. Within the last decade, a statue of the Blessed Mother, a Christmas stocking, plastic flowers and a small stuffed teddy bear had been placed at the grave marker. No items have been found at the site in recent months upon several visits. Former state police Trooper William Koscimski, the lead investigator at the time, said anonymous tips were received in the days after the boy’s body

was found, but he predicted solving the case would become difficult as time passed, according to The Times Leader archives. The late Edward O’Malley, former president of the landfill board of directors, told The Times Leader on Aug. 6, 1980, that 60 garbage trucks entered the landfill on that day before the grisly discovery. After eight or 10 trucks dumped their loads, the bulldozer operator began spreading garbage, covering it with dirt. O’Malley said investigators narrowed the number of trucks to four or five from items recovered around the body. The last load dumped before the body was found was from Kingston, which had four trucks at the landfill. Garbage also came from Larksville, Courtdale and a Kingston private hauler that picked up trash in Wilkes-Barre, Wyoming and the Berwick area. A bronze nameplate was initially left at the site, but the permanent stone marker was donated by Barry Monument Co. in Wilkes-Barre.

The Luzerne County Coroner’s Office has learned the identity of a man found dead by city firefighters inside a vacant building on Elizabeth Street on Thursday. Coroner John Corcoran said the man is 29 years old and from Brooklyn, N.Y. His name is not being released pending notification of family, Corcoran said. Results from an autopsy conducted Thursday by forensic pathologist Dr. Gary Ross are not being released due to the ongoing investigation. Firefighters responded to the fire at the vacant double-block residence at 19-21 Elizabeth St. at 3:38 a.m. Thursday. While battling the blaze, firefighters found the man’s body on the second floor. The property is owned by Loukas and Olga Kominis, of Astoria, N.Y., according to the Luzerne County Assessor’s Office. The cause of the fire remains unknown. State police deputy fire marshals are assisting the city fire inspector in the investigation. WILKES-BARRE

Splash pad work resumes

Vincent Pools, Inc., of Pipersville, is the new contractor installing the splash pad at Coal Street Park, said Drew McLaughlin, the city’s administrative coordinator. “Work resumed last week,” McLaughlin said. “The splash pad is on pace to be completed before Labor Day.” A fence has been erected around the site to keep children and adults from falling into a 6-foot hole that holds the vault for the pad.

HANOVER TWP. – The driver of pickup truck involved in a double-fatal crash on the Sans Souci Parkway had been cited for speeding and other traffic violations in the past, according to court records. The records from various

district judges’ offices in the county span a six-year time period. Twice within that time frame, Pennsylvania State Police said Kevin Michael Allen was doing 25 mph over the posted 55 mph speed limit. Township police Friday said Allen, 34, of Hanover Township crossed lanes and collided with a northbound car just after 1 p.m. on Thursday. Autopsies performed Friday on the driver of the car, Edward Skwirut, 89, and his 86-year-old wife, Dorothy, determined they died

from multiple traumatic injuries suffered in the crash, said Luzerne County Coroner John Corcoran. The husband and wife from South Walnut Street, Nanticoke, died in the emergency room at Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center, Plains Township. The manner of the death is pending an investigation by township police, the county district attorney’s office and state police. Allen remained hospitalized at Geisinger Wyoming Valley with moderate injuries, police said.

As recently as last year he was found guilty at a summary trial of speeding in the township. According to a docket sheet from the office of District Judge Joseph Halesey, Allen was issued a citation on April 21, 2010 for exceeding the posted speed limit by 9 mph. The docket did not indicate where the violation occurred. Allen paid a fine of $134.50 for the violation. State police also issued citations to him for speeding on May 27, 2005 and See FATAL, Page 4A

Repair work forces judge to new court William Amesbury will temporarily have his courtroom in the county’s Penn Place building. By SHEENA DELAZIO sdelazio@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – A Luzerne County judge will temporarily hold court in the county’s Penn Place building while construction is going on at the main courthouse. President Judge Thomas Burke stressed it’s not a permanent move for Judge William Amesbury because six newly elected judges will take office in January, and it’s too early to know where each judge will be assigned. “It’s an interim move because of construction issues,” Burke said of

Amesbury relocating to the Pennsylvania Avenue building until the end of the year. County workers began moving some of Amesbury’s office Burke this week. He is expected to begin holding court at the building Monday. Since construction began on the Luzerne County Courthouse on River Street in recent months, scaffolding has gone up on the third floor of the century-old building and construction noise has filled the hallways. Most recently, stained-glass windows that adorn the ceiling of the third floor were removed, and plywood put in their place until they are

refurbished. The $5.1 million restoration of the building will help stop leaks that are damaging interior plaster and artwork and repair exterior staircases, officials have said. Burke said the construction and placement of judges is a “work in progress” and that once December comes around, he and other judges will be tasked with deciding where each of the 10 judges will hold court. There are three courtrooms in the Penn Place building; seven in the main courthouse, including two smaller courtrooms, and two in the county’s Bernard C. Brominski building. The court also must take into consideration eight senior judges who assist in handling cases.

In addition to the speeding charges, police from Wilkes-Barre and Wilkes-Barre Township filed a dozen citations including operating a vehicle without a valid inspection, driving with a suspended or revoked license, and improper sun screening. The dockets indicated Allen pleaded guilty and paid fines. Two citations issued June 21, 2004

to Allen by Wilkes-Barre police for careless driving and driving at an unsafe speed were dismissed. He also was found not guilty at a summary trial before District Judge Halesey on June 1, 2010 of operating a vehicle without a valid inspection.

percentage of collections. He said the city has some large bills yet to come, such as bonds that are due in November. But Koval said this is the first time in a long time that the city has seen revenue growth in some key areas.He noted: • Earned income tax revenue is up 4.1 percent, indicating more people living in the city are earning higher wages. • The business privilege tax revenue is higher by 16.8 percent, indicating more businesses operating in the city. • Real estate transfer tax revenue has increased 45 percent, reflecting an increase in property transactions. Koval said a major building project at Wyoming Valley Healthcare has added some $300,000 in permit fees to the city’s revenue flow. He said ambulance revenue has also increased, while golf course revenue has declined, Koval said. He said the city employs about 300 people and costs have been kept in check through the attrition and reduction of employees. “Our payroll is 46.4 percent of the budget,” Koval said. The current city budget is $43.8 million. When asked if Wilkes-Barre could face a similar situation as Scranton, Leighton hedged his answer. “Let me first say that the days of out-ofbudget spending are over,” Leighton said. “We stick to our budget within reason. However, if there are any unexpected

events – flooding, snowstorms, and the failing economy – they could affect our costs significantly.” When the city faced a $10 million deficit in 2004 – Leighton’s first year as mayor – Leighton said the city asked the state for help and the Public Financial Management Company was appointed to help address the financial woes. “We followed the plan that was laid out for us,” Leighton said. The plan included debt restructuring, increased taxes, increased fees and reduction of staff. Over the next four years, Leighton said, the city raised its Standard & Poor credit rating to “B” in 2008 and to “A” in 2009. “By far that has been our biggest accomplishment,” Leighton said. The mayor is seeking his third term in the November, facing challenges from Republican Lisa Cope and Libertarian Betsy Summers. An unknown cost is the weather, Koval said. When flooding occurs or snow piles are high, the city sees increased costs for manpower, debris removal, landfill costs and infrastructure repairs. “There is always concern for those uncontrollable costs,” Koval said. Leighton said reductions in staffing such as police and fire would be considered when all other alternatives are exhausted. Leighton and Koval said there are other concerns. They said when large taxpayers – businesses or residents – leave the city, lost revenue has to be made up someplace. “The question is where and how,” Leighton said.

Wardrobe malfunction for Minaj

Nicki Minaj performs on ABC’s Good Morning America in New York, Friday. ABC News apoligized for a wardrobe malfunction that gave Minaj more exposure than she bargained for. She appeared wearing a loose-fitting halter top that she occasionally had to adjust. As Minaj sang ‘Where Dem Girls At,’ some slips made one of her nipples fleetingly visible. Despite a five-second delay, the slips were seen during the East Coast’s live telecast. ABC said they were edited out of Friday’s later feeds to other parts of the country. ABC says in a statement: ‘We are sorry that this occurred.’

NEW ORLEANS — A federal jury on Friday convicted five current or former police officers in the deadly shootings on a New Orleans bridge after Hurricane Katrina. Former officer Robert Faulcon, Sgts.

Most of the cases center on actions during the aftermath of the Aug. 29, 2005, storm, which plunged the flooded city into a state of lawlessness and desperation. The mother of 17-year-old James Brissette, one of the people killed on the bridge, said she was relieved by the verdict after “a long, hard six years.” His mother, Sherrel Johnson, said she would now try to move on but lamented what her son would miss out on. “For him there will be no prom, no

Polar bear attacks students

A polar bear attacked a group of British students camping on a remote Arctic glacier as part of a high-end adventure holiday, killing a 17-year-old boy and injuring four other young people Friday before a trip member fatally shot the bear. Two were hospitalized with severe injuries, according to the British Schools Exploring Society, the organizer of the trip. The attack took place on the Svalbard archipelago, which is home to about 2,400 people and 3,000 polar bears and attracts well-off and hardy tourists with stunning views of snowcovered mountains, fjords and glaciers. The British Schools Exploring Society has run expeditions for young people to remote and challenging corners of the globe for at least 75 years. WASHINGTON

Edwards must repay $2.2M

The report also found that Edwards’ campaign understated the amount of money it had on hand on two separate occasions, failed to itemize more than $4.3 million in loan repayments and owes the treasury nearly $142,000 in checks the campaign issued that were never cashed. The committee in charge of Edwards’ campaign now has 90 days to make a payment or 60 days to ask the FEC to review the decision. MOGADISHU, SOMALIA

Vote ends FAA partial shutdown

Senate approves legislation clearing way for thousands of employees to return to work. By JOAN LOWY Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The Senate approved legislation Friday ending a twoweek partial shutdown of the Federal Aviation Administration and President Barack Obama signed it into law, clearing the way for thousands of employees to return to work and hundreds of airport construction projects to resume. Employing the so-called “unanimous consent” procedure which took less than 30 seconds, two senators were present to approve a House-passed bill extending FAA’s operating authority through midSeptember. Democratic Sen. James Webb of Virginia stood up, called up the bill and asked that it be passed. Sen. Ben Cardin, D-Md., the presiding officer, agreed and it was done. Other lawmakers had scattered earlier

this week for Congress’ August recess. And Friday’s finishing-business vote was as low key as Congress gets, in marked contrast to the noisy, intemperate and enervating debt-limit Obama battle of recent weeks. Obama’s signature means nearly 4,000 furloughed FAA employees can return to work as soon as Monday. The shutdown has cost the government about $400 million in uncollected airline ticket taxes and idled thousands of construction workers. “This impasse was an unnecessary strain on local economies across the country at a time when we can’t allow politics to get in the way of our economic recovery,” Obama said in a statement. “So I’m glad that this stalemate has finally been resolved.” A bipartisan compromise reached Thursday cleared the way for Senate passage of the House bill, which includes a provision eliminating $16.5 million in air

service subsidies to 13 rural communities. But the bill also includes language that gives Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood the authority to continue subsidized service to the 13 communities if he decides it’s necessary Republicans had insisted on the subsidy cuts as their price for restoring the FAA to full operation. Democrats said they expect the administration to effectively waive or negate the cuts, although that won’t happen right away. That’s because the cuts don’t kick in until existing contracts with airlines for the subsidized service expire. The length of those contracts varies by community. The shutdown began when much of Washington was transfixed by the stalemate over increasing the government’s debt limit. During that time, the FAA furloughed some workers but kept air traffic controllers and most safety inspectors on the job. Forty airport safety inspectors worked without pay, picking up their own travel expenses.

BENGHAZI, Libya — The Libyan government on Friday denied rebel reports that Moammar Gadhafi’s youngest son was killed in a NATO airstrike on a frontline town in western Libya. Early Friday, officials in the rebels’ de facto capital of Benghazi said that Khamis Gadhafi was among 32 troops killed in a NATO strike early Friday on a government operations center in Zlitan. But in Tripoli, Deputy Foreign Minister Khaled Kaim Khamis Gadhafi said Khamis is alive and spoke to Libyan government officials Friday to confirm his well-being. “He is OK and alive, and they (reports of death) are just lies,” Kaim told The Associated Press. He said the rebels spread reports of Khamis’ death to “distract attention” from the killing late last month of rebel military chief Abdel-Fattah Younis. The rebel leadership has insisted Younis’ assassination was the work of the Gadhafi regime, but several witnesses say Younis was killed by fellow rebels. The slaying has fueled concerns about unity within the revel movement nearly six months after the revolt began. NATO said in a statement that it was aware of the reports that Khamis had been killed, but it did not confirm his death. It said alliance strikes on Thursday night hit an ammunition depot and military police facility in Zlitan, which is the main front of fighting between rebels and Gadhafi’s troops, 90 miles (140 kilometers) southeast of Tripoli.

Florida judge delays decision on Casey Anthony’s probation status By MIKE SCHNEIDER Associated Press

ORLANDO, Fla. — A judge deciding whether Casey Anthony has to return to Florida to serve probation for check fraud ended a hearing Friday without a ruling, calling the case “a mess.” “The best I can say is this is a legal maze,” Judge Belvin Perry said. A court spokeswoman said Perry likely would issue a ruling next week. Anthony didn’t attend the hearing, which involves a case separate from her high-profile murder trial that ended with her acquittal last

month. Anthony has disappeared from the public eye since a jury found her not guilty in the death of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee, and she was released from the Orange County Jail. Her lawyers have not disclosed her location except to say she was out of state earlier this week. Another judge sentenced her in January 2010 to one year of probation after she pleaded guilty to using checks stolen from a friend. Judge Stan Strickland said during that sentencing hearing that Anthony should serve the probation upon her release from prison or

jail. But those instructions never made it into a written order and corrections officials interpretedthesentencetomeanAnthony could serve the probation while she was in jail awaiting her murder trial. Strickland issued an amended order earlier this week, clarifying that Anthony needs to start serving probation now that she is out of jail.

Ailing Bevilacqua called to court in abuse case

Prosecutors want to preserve ex-Philly Cardinal’s testimony before next year’s trial.

Cardinal Anthony Bevilacqua makes remarks at a news conference, in Philadelphia in 2002. The now 88year-old former archbishop of Philadelphia has been summoned to court to see if he should be deposed in a criminal priestabuse case. City prosecutors want to preserve Bevilacqua’s testimony before a March 26 trial because he suffers from cancer and dementia. Bevilacqua is a potential trial witness.

By MARYCLAIRE DALE Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA — A judge on Friday summoned the 88-yearold former archbishop of Philadelphia to court next month to see if he should be deposed in a criminal priest-abuse case. City prosecutors want to preserve Cardinal Anthony Bevilacqua’s testimony before next year’s trial because he suffers from cancer and dementia. Bevilacqua is a potential trial witness. Monsignor William Lynn, 60, the secretary for clergy under Bevilacqua, is charged with child endangerment and conspiracy for allegedly transferring predator priests to new parishes without warning. He is the first U.S. church official charged in the priest-abuse scandal. Three priests and a former teacher are charged with rape and are co-defendants in the case, now set for trial on March 26. Lawyers for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Philadelphia argued at a hearing Friday that Bevilacqua is too ill to testify, and noted that he did not testify before the grand jury in January because of his condition. “The cardinal suffers from prostate cancer, dementia, anxiety, depression, (and) major sleep disorders and ... his mental/physical health continues to deteriorate,” lawyers Thomas Bergstrom and Jeffrey Lindy wrote in their motion to block the testimony. Bevilacqua, they said, did not recognize William Sasso, his lawyer of 20 years, at a recent meeting and requires round-the-clock nursing care. They argued that his testimony would be unreliable. Common Pleas Judge M. Teresa Sarmina asked for copies of Bevilacqua’s medical records and ordered him to attend a Sept. 12 court hearing on the issue. She agreed Friday to the March trial date to give defense lawyers more time to prepare for what could be a four-month trial. But the delay makes it more important to pre-

“The cardinal suffers from prostate cancer, dementia, anxiety, depression, (and) major sleep disorders and ... his mental/physical health continues to deteriorate.” Thomas Bergstrom and Jeffrey Lindy Lawyers in motion to block the testimony

serve the cardinal’s testimony if he is competent, but in declining health, she said. His medical records will be filed under seal. “We’re certainly not going to have the cardinal’s medical records floating around,” Sarmina said. Bevilacqua, trained as both a canon and civil lawyer, led the Philadelphia archdiocese from 1988 to 2003. The grand jury blasted his handling of priestabuse complaints. “The grand jurors have no doubt that his knowing and deliberate actions during his tenure as archbishop also endangered thousands of children,” the report states. “Monsignor Lynn was car-

rying out the cardinal’s policies exactly as the cardinal directed.” But prosecutors said they did not have enough evidence to link him to the specific assaults in their criminal case. Prosecutors instead charged Lynn with letting “a trio of pedophiles” rape a young altar boy, and another priest with raping a different boy as he slept. Lynn’s co-defendants are the Rev. Charles Engelhardt, 64, former priest Edward Avery, 68, former teacher Bernard Shero, 48, and the Rev. James Brennan, 48. The February indictment followed the second of two grand jury investigations since 2002 of priest sexual abuse in the archdiocese. A 2005 report named dozens of credibly accused, active priests, but said no charges could be filed because of legal time limits. The archdiocese, with about 500 active priests and nearly 1.5 million members, is a powerful force in Philadelphia. About onethird of the region is Catholic. The pope last month named conservative Archbishop Charles Chaput of Denver to succeed Archbishop Justin Rigali, whose actions to address the sex-abuse crisis since 2003 have been criticized by both the grand jury and the head of his own reform panel.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette says the deal, which paid Ridge and his Ridge Policy Group $900,000, expired at the end of July. Essentially, Ridge lent his credibility to the group representing most major shale natural gas drillers in the state and their arguments for the economic and environmental benefits of natural gas. Coalition spokesman Travis Windle wouldn’t say whether the group considered renewing Ridge’s contract, but stressed the deal’s one-year

WILKES-BARRE – A Duryea man was found not guilty Thursday of assaulting two people in Pittston Township. Philip J. Dunn, 25, of Wood Street, was acquitted by a Luzerne County jury late Thursday on two counts each of simple assault and harassment and one count of disorderly conduct. The jury deliberated for about an hour and a half. The trial began on Wednesday before Luzerne County Judge David Lupas. A charge of aggravated assault was demurred at the request of Dunn’s attorney, Christopher J. Powell Jr. Lupas granted the demur – or the dismissal of a charge which a defendant says that even if the charge can be proven, there is no legal basis for it. The case was prosecuted by Assistant District Attorney Maureen Collins.

According to court papers, on June 6, 2010, Pittston Township police were called to a Suscon Road residence where two people reported they had been assaulted by Dunn. Police said Christina Koons told them Dunn had prevented her from exiting her driveway by blocking her vehicle with his vehicle. Police said Dunn then struck James Edward Koons Jr. several times in the head, face and body with a closed fist causing him to suffer multiple abrasions and contusions. Dunn also struck John Forrest Koons, court papers say, by hitting him with a closed fist in the head and face, causing Koons to become unconscious and fall to the ground. Police said John Forrest Koons suffered multiple fractures due to the injuries. Court papers did not indicate how the incident began. Christina Koons reported she was not assaulted.

been that a downgrade would scare buyers away from U.S. debt. If that were to happen, the interest rate paid on U.S. bonds, notes and bills would have to rise to attract buyers. And that could lead to higher borrowing rates for consumers, since the rates on mortgages and other loans are pegged to the yield on Treasury securities. However, even without an AAA rating from S&P, U.S. debt is seen as one of the safest investments in the world. And investors clearly weren’t scared away this week. While stocks were plunging, investors were buying Treasurys and driving up their prices. The yield on the 10year Treasury note, which falls when the price rises, fell to a low of 2.39 percent on Thursday from 2.75 percent Monday. A study by JPMorgan Chase found that there has been a slight rise in rates when countries lost an AAA rating. In 1998, S&P lowered ratings for Belgium, Italy and Spain. A week later, their 10-year rates had barely moved. The government fought the downgrade. Administration

sources familiar with the discussions said the S&P analysis was fundamentally flawed. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to discuss the matter publicly. S&P had sent the administration a draft document in the early afternoon Friday and the administration, after examining the numbers, challenged the analysis. S&P said that in addition to the downgrade, it is issuing a negative outlook, meaning that there was a chance it will lower the rating further within the next two years. It said such a downgrade, to AA, would occur if the agency sees smaller reductions in spending than Congress and the administration have agreed to make, higher interest rates or new fiscal pressures during this period. In its statement, S&P said that it had changed its view “of the difficulties of bridging the gulf between the political parties” over a credible deficit reduction plan. S&P said it was now “pessimistic about the capacity of Congress and the administration to be able to leverage their agreement this week into a broader fiscal consolidation plan that stabilizes the government’s debt dynamics anytime soon.” The Federal Reserve and other

“Investors have voted and are saying the U.S. is going to pay them,” said Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody’s Analytics. “U.S. Treasurys are still the gold standard.” He noted that neither his parent organization, Moody’s, nor Fitch, the other of the three major rating agencies, have downgraded U.S. debt. Japan had its ratings cut a decade ago to AA, and it didn’t have much lasting impact. The credit ratings of both Canada and Australia have also been downgraded over time, without much lasting damage. “I don’t think it’s going to amount to a lot,” said Peter Morici, a University of Maryland business economist. Still, he said, “The United States deserves to have this happen,” because of its clumsy handling of fiscal policy.

U.S. regulators said in a joint statement that S&P’s action should not have any impact on how banks and other financial institutions assess the riskiness of Treasurys or other securities guaranteed by the U.S. government. The statement was issued to make sure banks did not feel that the downgrade would affect the amount of capital that regulators require the banks to hold against possible losses. Before leaving for a weekend at Camp David, President Barack Obama met with Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner in the Oval Office late Friday afternoon. The downgrade is likely to have little to no impact on how the United States finances its borrowing, through the sale of Treasury bonds, bills and notes. This week’s buying proves that.

Hazleton Area hears plea on layoff By STEVE MOCARSKY smocarsky@timesleader.com

HAZLE TWP. – A furloughed guidance counselor on Thursday pleaded with the Hazleton Area School Board to rehire her and a fellow counselor, lest student services suffer tremendously. Megan Taylor, the sophomore class guidance counselor, said every school district employee who was furloughed this summer because of a dramatic reduction in state education subsidies was brought back except for her and senior class counselor Angela Gennaro. With Gennaro at her side, Taylor addressed the school board during public comment. “I hope to make you realize how much our students will be negatively affected next year with these proposed cuts to our department,” Taylor said.

She said the guidance department is already understaffed with the board’s decision not to fill retiring counselor Rick Marchetti’s position, and furloughing her and Gennaro will mean the caseload of each remaining counselor will be doubled. Taylor spent about 5 minutes enumerating all of the services the counselors provide to students – everything from helping them plan for careers to helping them apply for college; writing letters of recommendation to

Sam Troy also in running for W-B City Council seat

By BILL O’BOYLE boboyle@timesleader.com

SA M T ROY

WILKES-BARRE – Sam Troy said Friday the city council needs more than a watchdog – it needs someone who can change the way the city operates and make it more taxpayer-friendly. Troy, 61, of Joseph Lane, announced he will run as an Independent candidate for city council in District C. He will run against Democrat Maureen Lavelle and Republican Stephen J. Urban. Troy is also running as an Independent candidate for WilkesBarre Area School Board. John DiLiberto, a Libertarian Party candidate, entered the race Monday, but on Friday he said he will likely withdraw to allow the party to substitute another candidate. “City council needs to have someone who will not just rubber stamp Leighton’s policies,” Troy said. “It needs a person who will not just reveal what is going on, but who will effect change.” Leighton is running for a third term and Troy said if the mayor wins again, council will need to have someone “to serve the public’s interest and not just a select few.” Troy has regularly attended city council meetings and he

has been a critic of Leighton. “Things will only get worse if (Leighton) wins a third term,” Troy said. “The average citizen has not benefited from this administration.” When asked if he won both races, which would he choose to accept, Troy said it would be a difficult choice. “I really don’t know which I would choose at this point,” Troy said. “I hope I’m faced with that decision. I’d have to decided where the greater need for my skills and talents would be.” Troy ran for city council in 2007, losing the Democratic nomination in District C to Kathy Kane. Kane cruised to victory with 400 votes, far outdistancing her nearest opponent, Justin McCarthy, who had 259 tallies. Troy was third with 123.

Hanover Area School Board questioned over fuel purchase expenditures in transportation invoices HANOVER TWP. – Deborah Scott asked the Hanover Area School Board at Thursday’s regular meeting why the district used “thousands of gallons” of diesel fuel and kerosene from 2008 to 2010. Having reviewed invoices for the transportation department, Scott, of Warrior Run, said the

DEPUTY Continued from Page 1A

Roberts had previously been suspended from her position in the county sheriff’s department after a domestic dispute with another sheriff deputy, her former partner, Mary Jean Farrell, in February. Roberts had been put back on the job a short time later, and has been working in the department’s Hazleton office since April. According to a criminal complaint, police responded to a 911 hang up call at Sheila Sult’s Regent Street home on July 22 shortly after midnight. Police said Sult was intoxicated and visibly upset, with severe swelling under her eye, lumps on the back of her head and scratches on her neck. Police said Sult was reluctant at first, but eventually told police that the incident began in the afternoon at the Wyoming Valley Mall. Sult said she was at the mall with Farrell and that Roberts began calling Farrell’s phone and texting her messages. Roberts said she was outside the mall and

expenditures concerned her. She said she also noticed that $380 was spent on antifreeze. Business Manager Tom Cipriano told Scott the district provides diesel fuel for the district’s small buses, truck and tractors. “I’m certain that we did not buy thousands of gallons of kerosene,” he said. He added that the $380 in antifreeze, which, at roughly $10

per gallon, would total 38 gallons, is not an outrageous expenditure over a two-year period. He said he would look into the issue. Joe Alberola, director of facilities, said kerosene is frequently added to diesel machinery in the winter so the fuel doesn’t freeze and said it is also added to the school’s generators. Scott asked the board why the

that she wanted to speak with Farrell. Sult said Roberts told Farrell that if Farrell did not come outside, she was going to “(expletive) Sheila up.” Sult said Roberts kept saying that Farrell was her wife and that if Sult did not break up with Farrell, Roberts was going to “(expletive) (Sult) up.” Sult said Roberts continued to yell and scream, and as she pulled away said to Farrell, “If you don’t come see me later, I will come to find Sheila and punch the Colgate smile off her face.” A short while later, Sult said she posted some things about the encounter on her social networking page on Facebook, and that Roberts became aware of the postings and called Farrell. Roberts allegedly told Farrell that if Sult did not remove the postings, Roberts was going to “knock the shit out of Sheila and take it off Facebook herself.” Sult said Farrell went to her house and pleaded with her to take the postings down, but that she refused and asked Farrell to leave her house. While leaving, Farrell got a call from Roberts, who allegedly said she was with another woman and the two were coming to Sult’s

home after they had been “drinking a lot.” Farrell attempted to notify Sult, but Sult would not let her in the home, arrest records say. Police said Roberts arrived at the house and when Sult started to open the door, Roberts pushed it open and attacked Sult. “Roberts proceeded to push Sult over a loveseat and violently punched Sult (in) the face and head,” arrest records say. Police said Farrell had to intervene to stop Roberts’ attack, and that Sult suffered a “violent blow” beneath her eye, causing swelling, blurry vision, a headache and lumps on the top and back of her head, as well as scratches on her neck and two broken necklaces. Police said that in following days, Sult and Farrell went to police headquarters to give a written statement. Roberts and Farrell, in February, filed reciprocal protectionfrom-abuse orders against each other, alleging guns were drawn and physical abuse occurred when their intimate relationship ended. A week later on March 3, the women withdrew the PFAs against each other, with an attorney saying the two wanted to move on with their lives.

district hasn’t put a bid out for transportation service in decades. The district is currently in a five-year contract with Churnetski Transportation. The contract expires in June 2015. Cipriano said that although

the district isn’t legally required to advertise for proposals for transportation as it is considered a “service,” he feels strongly that the district should. “It will happen in the future as long as I’m here,” he said.

Scott also asked why the district hasn’t used the goods from a Hanover Township grocer, Lucas’ Produce. Cipriano said the district’s food service company, Aramark is responsible for picking a produce vendor.

OTHER OPINION: HEALTH CARE

Compare prices on medical website

NDERGOING A medical procedure might not have much in common with purchasing a car, but consumers should prepare for hospital visits and outpatient treatment in much the same way they do homework before making a big purchase. When it comes to things medical, first and foremost it’s important to consult the professionals most familiar with the patient about appropriate treatment. Patients also can learn how various medical facilities perform on specific services by reviewing annual reports published by the Pennsylvania Health Care Cost Containment Council at its website, www.phc4.org. Now, a new website allows consumers to get cost estimates, not only for what their health insurer likely will be assessed, but also what out-ofnetwork surcharges they’d have to cover if the doctor, anesthesiologist, hospital, clinic

or other provider is not a participant in their insurance plan. The independent nonprofit Fair Health grew out of an investigation by New York’s attorney general and was created to establish and maintain a database for consumers. The group’s Consumer Cost Lookup site, www.fairhealthconsumer.org, now provides information for a nationwide audience. Users plug in their ZIP codes and then select the medical procedure they’re inquiring about. For example, the site says removing a gallbladder would cost an estimated $2,341, with the patient responsible for $702. The information could prove particularly useful in Western Pennsylvania, with the battle between the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and Highmark Inc. raising the specter of more people facing outof-network medical charges.

EPA keeping state farms, industries from prospering OVER THE past six months I have traveled across Pennsylvania, from Erie County to Scranton, and I have heard the same thing from farmers, manufacturers and job creators: Tell the federal Environmental Protection Agency to stop breathing down our necks. These folks care about our environment and support reasonable standards, but every day they struggle to keep their businesses running, provide for their families and make payroll for their employees. The EPA has a wide-ranging scope of authority over many sectors of the U.S. economy. From heavy manufacturers to family farms to small businesses struggling to get off the ground, these job creators have been bombarded by a deluge of new EPA regulations and mandates. Under President Obama’s administration, the EPA has promulgated new regulations governing greenhouse gases, industrial boilers, cement kilns and dust, just to name a few. You might be thinking: What does the Environmental Protection Agency have to do with cement? That’s a good question. The cement industry might not be the biggest industry in Pennsylvania, but it

MAIL BAG

U.S. SEN. PAT TOOMEY employs 2,000 workers in 11 cement plants, seven of which are located in the Lehigh Valley area. In May 2009, the EPA finalized new rules requiring the cement industry to adhere to higher emissions standards, with little regard as to whether these standards are realistically achievable. The industry estimates that these new mandates will impose as much as $3.4 billion in compliance costs during the next two years. I was astounded to learn that the EPA does not consider the jobs impact of any new regulation, guidance statement or permit denial as a matter of policy. Before the EPA institutes a new rule, wouldn’t common sense dictate that the agency analyze the potential negative consequences of its proposed rules? I would argue yes. That is why I introduced legislation, called the Employment Protection Act, which will require the EPA to consider the jobs impact of any new regulation, new policy statement or permit denial.

Don’t blame Republicans for nation’s budget woes

arack Obama has been president for 2½ years. Democrats had majority control of the House and Senate (until January 2011, six months ago). Republicans now hold the majority in the House. In his first year, Obama traveled the globe; Congress made backroom deals for “Obamacare.” The rest of the time, they spent, golfed, partied and vacationed. In all that time, why didn’t they make a budget? Now, the president wants to blame the Republicans. If they didn’t get voted into the House, and Democrats still had majority there, whom would he blame? Main Street, USA? Where’s the common sense? Theresa Morris Dallas

COMMENTARY

The act seeks to protect Pennsylvania jobs by requiring the EPA to issue its regulations in a responsible and thoughtful process. Before issuing any regulation, the EPA must release a publicly available jobs analysis that will be audited by the Government Accountability Office. If the proposed action will displace jobs or economic activity, the EPA must notify the governor, congressional delegation and legislature of all affected states and hold field hearings before the proposed action can go into effect. This will give lawmakers the ability to properly weigh the costs and benefits of regulatory actions before they go into effect. I believe Pennsylvania and the country deserve a booming recovery, but that won’t happen so long as the EPA continues to impose new, excessive burdens and red tape on our farms, manufacturers and other important industries. The Employment Protection Act will force the EPA to take a more balanced approach and start considering the economic impact of its regulatory decisions.

ensuring America breaks its addiction to oil. The new standard has the potential to cut annual gasoline use by 23 billion gallons, reduce annual emissions of global warming pollution by 280 million metric tons and could save Americans $80 billion at the pump. Although this represents a massive leap forward in the way we think about oilsaving transportation options, President Obama should continue to work to strengthen the standard in the coming months by closing loopholes inserted by industry and ramping up to what experts say is our full fuel economy potential: 60 mpg by 2025. The stronger this groundbreaking standard is, the closer we can come to ending our dependence on oil.

Writer itching to share flea-fighting strategies

don’t know about you, but this year the fleas are out there in full force and are driving me crazy! I’ve found some home remedies that are helping in my fight to get rid of them. First, take a nightlight – not the ones with the scented attachments, but a regular nightlight – and put it next to a small glass bowl filled about half way with either water or alcohol. The alcohol must be clear. Turn on the nightlight and try to stay out of the room for at least eight to 12 hours. Come back and you will be amazed at how many you’ve caught. Second, get Skin So Soft, by Avon (the bath oil works the best). Put a little bit in the palm of your hand and gently rub on your dog or cat from head to tail, since fleas love warm spots. It keeps the bugs off of you as well. Third, take two good flea-collar products and place one on top of your boxspring and one by the foot of the bed between the mattresses. Leave them there. This helps kill any you have there and keeps any from festering. The most important tip is to keep your pets groomed and cleaned. Get them flea dipped as often as advised.

W-B Area will charge colleges for student teachers The school board had tried and failed to get the colleges to pay money in lieu of taxes.

By MARK GUYDISH mguydish@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – A tax break for a former bakery may have dominated the Wilkes-Barre Area School Board meeting Friday morning, but the board conducted other business, the most potentially controversial being a

move to charge local colleges when they send education students to the district for required student teaching experience. Voicing obvious frustration on an issue he has raised for years, board member James Fisher announced the board had tried and failed yet again to get local nonprofit colleges to offset their taxfree status by contributing payments in lieu of taxes to the district. Roughly half of district property is tax-free, including King’s College and Wilkes Uni-

versity. As a result, the board set a new district policy that would charge colleges a percentage of student tuition whenever an undergraduate student teaches at the district. The percentage will be determined later, and the fee won’t be levied until the start of the second semester for each college, typically beginning sometime in January 2012. The board also approved a settlement in a dispute with the parent of an unidentified special edu-

cation student. The district will set aside $25,000 “to be accessible to and by the parent to pay for ‘legitimate educational expenses’ for the student,” available until the student’s 20th birthday in 2014. The district will also pay $8,000 in legal fees the parent incurred. In a separate move, the board approved a contract with a New Jersey agency to provide special education services for a student at a total estimated cost of $32,860 for one year. Such agree-

ments occur when it is determined that another facility can best provide specialized services for the student. Under state law, the district is responsible for the payment of the services, even if the student is sent out of the area for them. The board changed the status of Holly Shubilla from long-term substitute to teacher, and appointed a slate of coaches. At Coughlin High School, Geoffrey Bell as head junior high boys’ basketball coach. At Meyers high

school, Jeffrey Labatch and Jason Mills as first assistant varsity football coaches; Bill White as second assistant varsity football coach, David Lewis as junior high football head coach; Michael Gorham, Joe Mashinski, Brent Jones, Nicholas Bilski and Jermaine Bellamy as volunteer football coaches; Maria Ulicny as varsity field hockey interim head coach; Candice Russ and junior high field hockey head coach; and Christopher McGavin as soccer volunteer coach.

Leighton rejected recurring claims that he has pushed for the tax break because he was trying to sell the property to Leo Glodzik, owner of LAG towing. LAG became the city’s contracted tower under Leighton’s administration, and Glodzik has contributed thousands to Leighton’s election campaigns. “The mayor of Wilkes-Barre does not sell real estate,” he said, noting city council had publicly voted on the proposed sale. Despite that, Leighton rescinded the sale earlier this week in an apparent effort to increase odds of winning the district’s blessing on the tax break. It seemed to work. After Friday’s meeting, Moran said that move had helped smooth board objections to the tax break. During Leighton’s presentation, sev-

eral members questioned why they should approve a tax break without knowing what the property would be used for. The site is close to two district schools. Board member Lynn Evans cited a nearby property that had been sold to LAG and became a parking lot and towing yard. Leighton said there are no guarantees about property development, but that he would try to assure the use was appropriate. He then invited the board to send representatives to meetings regarding the property. Critics speak out A string of critics spoke after Leighton. Toni Hammond said she and others who live near the property had been ready to purchase it but were not told when it was up for sale, and that it could have been developed two years ago. “I would hope now that you have the power with the city, that you would

change how they deal with real estate,” she said. City tower Bob Kadluboski, a business competitor with LAG and constant critic of this project, reminded the district that Leighton had promised Luzerne County Commissioners that a prior, unrelated deal involving tax breaks would lead to construction of townhouses, but ended up being a “towing yard.” “How could you trust the mayor?” Kadluboski asked. He suggested delaying any vote until the plans are firm. He also criticized the board for holding an 8:30 a.m. meeting, precluding many in the public from attending -- though the small board room was nearly full with spectators. Kadluboski called Leighton “a man who’s a proven liar,” and said, “I would ask politely, what’s the rush? “This project stinks, it smells and it’s underhanded,” Kadluboski said.

Gilliland is in the first week of his family “vacation.” After the race last weekend in Indianapolis, Gilliland sent his motor coach driver, Colin Campbell, home and the Gilliland family, David, wife Michelle, son Todd, 11, and daughter Taylor, 8, packed into the Fleetwood American Heritage and headed east toward Northeastern Pennsylvania. “We’re just normal people doing normal things,” Gilliland said of the family vacation.

Sam Troy, a frequent board critic and an Independent candidate for the board this fall, urged the board to “just vote no,” citing “the lack of transparency” by the mayor.

Vazquez powers Yankees to win

Mattioli resigns post at Pocono

First baseman has five RBI, including league-leading 27th home run in romp past Bats..

JOSH HORTON For The Times Leader

MOOSIC--Jorge Vazquez leads the league with 27 home runs in 112 games so far this season. On Friday night at PNC Field, he showed exactly how much power he has. The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre first baseman’s home run and five RBI led the team to an 8-4 victory over the Louisville Bats on Friday night. “Obviously, the home run is nice,” Scranton/WilkesYANKEES Barre manager Dave Miley said. “But, the double to right center BATS gave us the edge and we cashed in an opportunity where we may not have scored.” The Yankees took an early 1-0 lead. In the bottom of the second, Brandon Laird crushed a long fly ball to left-center which took one bounce and went over the fence giving him a ground rule double. He then moved over to third on a single to right center field off the bat of Mike Lamb. Jordan Parraz brought home Laird with an RBI double to right field. Juan Francisco evened the score at 1-1 in the top of the third with an RBI double down the left field line. Dave Sappelt scored on the play for Louisville after drawing a two out walk. The score wouldn’t stay tied

The winning edge

Hamlin enjoying the benefit of previous success at track By JOHN ERZAR jerzar@timesleader.com

LONG POND – Few drivers have been able to dominate at Pocono Raceway like Denny Hamlin. Yet the driver of the Joe Gibbs Racing No. 11 Toyota believes the track still owes him something. And he might be right after the last time the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series raced at the 2.5-mile tri-oval. Hamlin’s 19th-place finish in June’s 5-Hour Energy 500 was arguably the most misleading finish among all the drivers. Now, he

Yanks edge Sox to gain first-place By JIMMY GOLEN AP Sports Writer

BOSTON— Reliever Boone Logan struck out Adrian Gonzalez with the bases loaded to end the fifth inning, and the New York Yankees came back to beat the Boston Red Sox 3-2 on Friday night to win their eighth straight game and take over the lead in the N.Y. YANKEES AL East. Logan (3-2) was the first of five Yankees reRED SOX lievers who combined to throw 4 1-3 shutout innings after starter Bartolo Colon couldn’t make it out of the fifth. Mariano Rivera was the last, pitching the ninth for his 29th save. The win gave New York the division lead for the first time since July 6. Boston had beaten the Yankees in eight of their previous nine meetings this year.

no. The early part of the race looked as if it would be as impressive as Hamlin’s July 2006 victory where he led 151 laps. He was out front for 76 of the first 101 laps before troubles on pit road ruined his day. First, Hamlin lost about 10 seconds on pit road to Juan Montoya during green-flag stops. Later, he had a flat tire coming off pit road. The tire wrapped around the housing and snapped the brake lines. “It was just a slew of problems there at the end,” Hamlin said at the time. Hamlin has rarely found those troubles at Pocono. His four career victories are second only to Jeff Gordon’s five among active fulltime drivers. Gordon won in June, but it took him 37 races at Pocono to get his fifth; Hamlin has won four in just 11 races.

looks to make amends on Sunday during the Good Sam RV Insurance 500. The first step comes at 10:40 a.m. today in qualifying. As 39th quickest in Friday’s first practice, which sets the qualifying order, Hamlin will be one of the first to hit the track today. “Honestly, we feel like we should have won twice as many races as we have,” Hamlin said. “It’s every time we go there, we’re in position to win the race just about every time.” Like in June when Hamlin was on the way to another dominating performance at Poco- See RACE, Page 3B

Mattox’s Spencer, owned locally by James Guagliardo, is my selection to score the victory in today’s $29,000 Winner’s Over Pace. The six-year old Camluck gelding has never been better and last week made a statement he’s ready for more with a super impressive victory. In that $24,000 Claiming Handicap Pace, driver Mike Simons quarter-poled from post position five and never looked back, as he destroyed a field of seven others in a blazing 1:49.3.

Newman is next free agent on block By JOHN ERZAR jerzar@timesleader.com

FRED ADAMS PHOTOS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER

Kurt Busch looks at his car as his crew starts to work on it in the garage.

LONG POND – Now that points leader Carl Edwards has decided to stay at Roush Fenway Racing, who will be the next driver in a contract year to decide where he’ll be in 2012? Ryan Newman, who is in the final year of his contract with Stewart-Haas Racing, could be that guy. “It’s weird how some of those things play out,” Newman said. “Sometimes it takes the biggest piece of the puzzle to fall before the rest of them can kind of fit in. This year it seems Carl was that person. “A contract year doesn’t necessarily mean re-signing or getting the best deal you can for yourself. It can also mean making a change when somebody else offers you a little bigger puzzle.” Newman raced seven full seasons for owner Roger Penske, winning eight times in 2003, before joining StewartHaas in 2009. He has won two times in 92 races with that team, which is owned by driver Tony Stewart. WHO’LL GO HOME Three drivers among the 11 who must qualify via speed will be packing up the equipment and heading home today. They’ll know their fate early. All 11 drivers will qualify among the first 18 to hit the track today. So by the time qualifying is over, the hauler should be nearly packed for the long trip back. KAHNE ON TOP

Hamlin is also second among fulltime drivers in laps led at Pocono with 574. Gordon leads all with 957, but it took his over three times more races here. And no active driver can top Hamlin’s average starting position (5.9) and finishing position (9.2) at Pocono. “It’s just one of those racetracks I have a really, really good feel for,” Hamlin said. “There’s not too many tracks where you feel when you pull in you just can’t do no wrong. (Pocono) is one of those places.”

Race for the Chase heating up as stretch run nears By JOHN ERZAR jerzar@timesleader.com

LONG POND – The next six races, starting with Sunday’s Good Sam RV Insurance 500 at Pocono Raceway, promise to be a wild ride for some NASCAR Sprint Cup drivers. Those races will set the 12driver field for the Chase, a 10race playoff to decide the champion to conclude the season. And one slip – or in Clint Bowyer’s case two – can really change things quickly. “Those two DNFS in a row killed us,” said Bowyer, referring to finishes of 36th at Daytona

NEW YORK Continued from Page 1B

Nick Swisher had two hits, including an RBI double off Jon Lester (11-5) to give the Yankees a 3-2 lead. Lester, who had won five consecutive starts against the Yankees, allowed three runs on five hits and four walks, striking out seven in six-plus innings. David Ortiz homered and Josh Reddick had a pair of hits for Boston, which had been a season-high three games in front of New York on July 24. They still led by 21⁄2 on the morning of July 30 before the Yankees swept the Orioles in a

MATTIOLI

and 35th at Kentucky to start July. “That took us from seventh, eighth in points to 12th outside looking in.” The top-10 in driver points after the 26th race of the season on Sept. 10 at Richmond International Raceway get places in the Chase. The final two wild-card spots will be determined by the number of victories by drivers ranked 11-20 in the points standings. Ties for the wild card are broken via points. Right now, the wild-card spots would go to Denny Hamlin (11th) and Paul Menard (14th), who jumped into position by

winning last Sunday at Indianapolis. David Ragan, who is 16th in points, is the only other driver ranked 11-20 with a victory. “The wild cards are obviously taken, it looks to me like,” Bowyer said. “We’ve got to focus on gaining as many points as possible in these next six races to get ourselves back in. I think that’s our best chance of making the Chase, consistency and running up front.” Bowyer, who drives the No. 33 Chevrolet for Richard Childress Racing, has had neither at Pocono. He has five top-10 finishes in his 11 races at the 2.5-mile tri-

oval. But he also a couple of poor finishes, albeit early in his Cup career and none the last three seasons. His average finish at Pocono is 16.4. Even five-time defending Cup champion Jimmie Johnson, who is second in points, knows anything can happen. “This championship is anyone’s championship,” Johnson said. “Then the fight for that bubble spot is pretty open too, it seems like. I think you’re going to see anybody who’s near the Chase and transferring into it looking for consistency and some wins.”

doubleheader to start their winning streak. But the teams came into the three-game series at Fenway Park tied for the best record in the AL, both 68-42. The game brought out the stars, with Seinfeld co-creator Larry David and Spike Lee rooting for the Yankees and Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler and Peter Farrelly, of the filmmaking brothers, pulling for the home team. It was a pleasant 71 degrees for the first pitch, and the crowd of 38,006 was the 688th consecutive sellout at Fenway Park. The fans saw Lester outlast Colon, but only long enough to run into trouble himself in the sixth. The Red Sox lefthander walk-

ed No. 9 hitter Eduardo Nunez and gave up back-to-back singles to Derek Jeter and Curtis Granderson to score one run before Mark Teixeira walked to load the bases. The Yankees tied it on Robinson Cano’s 4-6-3 doubleplay, and then took a 3-2 lead on Swisher’s double down the thirdbase line. Colon was pulled after throwing 94 pitches in 4 2-3 innings, allowing two runs on six hits and a walk. He gave up Jacoby Ellsbury’s RBI double in the third and Ortiz’s solo homer in the fourth, then loaded the bases in the fifth before Boone Logan (3-2) struck out Adrian Gonzalez to end the threat. Logan pitched one inning in all, giving up one hit while strik-

ing out one. Notes: Yankees RHP Mark Prior struck out two and hit a batter during a scoreless inning in the Gulf Coast League, where he is rehabbing from a strained groin and back soreness. ... Game 2 of the series will feature CC Sabathia against John Lackey. Sabathia is 16-5 with a 2.55 ERA this season, but he is 0-3 with a 6.16 ERA against Boston. Including the playoffs, he is 6-10 with a 4.40 ERA against the Red Sox in his career, most of it with Cleveland. Lackey has won four straight decisions. He is 7-9 with a 4.33 ERA against the Yankees in his career. Lackey has faced the Yankees once this year, getting a win on April 8 despite allowing six runs in five innings.

miles per hour echoed in the distance, Mattioli said “nobody lives forever.” “My wife and I felt that it’s about time I got the hell out of here. As of today, I am resigning all my positions here at Pocono Raceway. We’re going to take it a little easy,” Mattioli said. Mattioli said he had been contemplating this move for a while. “It’s just something that evolved and evolved and evolved. When I realized that my three grandchildren were capable, then I started thinking heavy about it,” Mattioli said. His grandson, Brandon Igdalsky, becomes president and chief executive officer of the track. Another grandson, Nicholas, becomes chief operating officer and executive vice president. Brandon and Nicholas’ sister Ashley was named secretary/treasurer. “Brandon is well trained. He knows this track like the back of his hand,” Mattioli said. The news came seemingly out of nowhere to the media, the track’s employees and even the newly promoted grandkids. “You learned about it when I did,” Brandon Igdalsky, 35, of Long Pond, said. He said he turned to his brother and asked if he was hearing the same thing. “Total shock,” Igdalsky said. Mattioli has been good for NASCAR, credited with introducing the sport to the Northeastern United States and growing its popularity on Wall Street. The first NASCAR race was run in 1974, three years after Indy cars made their debut at Pocono. The sport has also been very good for Mattioli. “We started here with $48 in our account and we’ve built a track with a net worth of $600 million,” he said. Over the years, rumors that Mattioli would sell the track to a rival owner or that it would lose one of its two races. Neither has occurred. Instead, Mattioli has continued investing in the track. Whether it was the longest urinal in the world – dubbed the “Long John” -- or the largest solar farm at a sporting venue in the nation or bucket seats in the

Rookie Freddie Freeman doubled twice to run his hitting streak to 19 games, a personal best. Hudson (11-7) allowed three hits in helping the Braves hand the Mets their fifth straight loss.

T H I S D A T E I N B A S E B A L L Aug. 6 1908 — John Lush threw a six-inning no-hitter as the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Brooklyn Dodgers 2-0. It was Lush’s second no-hitter against the Dodgers. 1952 — Satchel Paige, 46, became the oldest pitcher in major league history to pitch a complete game or a shutout when he beat Virgil Trucks and the Detroit Tigers 1-0 in 12 innings. 1972 — Atlanta’s Hank Aaron hit his 660th and 661st career home runs to break Babe Ruth’s record for most home runs with one club. The 661st came in the 10th inning to give the Braves a 4-3 triumph over the Cincinnati Reds. 1981 — As a result of a seven-week strike, major league players approved a split-season format. The New York Yankees, Oakland A’s, Philadelphia Phillies and Los Angeles Dodgers were declared the first-half champions and automatically qualified for the divisional series. 1985 — The Major League Baseball Players’ Association went on strike. 1986 — The Texas Rangers beat the Baltimore Orioles 13-11 in a record-setting battle of grand slams. Texas’ Toby Harrah hit a grand slam in the second inning before Larry Sheets and Jim Dwyer connected for grand slams in Baltimore’s nine-run fourth. 1988 — Oakland Athletics outfielder Jose Canseco became the 11th player in major league history to hit 30 homers and steal 30 bases in a season. Canseco, with 31 homers, stole second base with one out in the ninth inning for his 30th as the A’s edged the Seattle Mariners 5-4. 1988 — Rich Gossage registered his 300th career save as the Chicago Cubs beat the Philadelphia Phillies 7-4.

Fisher: 6-year-old son fighting blood disease

World Series yachts ready to sail today

Seminoles coach and wife have started fundraising organization for youngsters.

The Associated Press

CASCAIS, Portugal — The latest generation of America’s Cup yachts is ready to set sail in a competition promising speed, stealth and uncertainty. The first of three World Series events in 2011 begins today off the Portuguese coast in Cascais. A new class of catamarans will streak though the Atlantic at speeds of up to 30 mph. The World Series is essentially a training exercise for the Louis Vuitton Cup, where boats will try to become the designated challenger to defending champion Oracle Racing in the America’s Cup, the oldest competition in international sports. Both cups will be raced in 2013 from July to September in San Francisco. At Cascais, seven challengers from six nations are looking to give Oracle cause for concern. The nine-day event marks the first stage on the way to San Francisco, where the American syndicate will defend the Auld Mug trophy. The AC45 wing-sailed class boats are 44 feet long, 71 feet high and sailed by a team of five. They are a prelude to the massive 72-foot long multihulls that will be used come San Francisco. “From a racing standpoint it’s going to be brutal at times. But that’s part of the growing pains — it doesn’t come without hiccups,” Emirates Team New Zealand skipper Dean Barker said Friday. “These are so high-tech that when they are pushed to the limits that’s where you can see mistakes.” The “fast cats,” as America’s Cup organizers label them, certainly present a big jump for the competition, with Energy Team skipper Loick Peyron coining “turbo engine” feel to describe the new series. While America’s Cup sailing has been called Formula One on water before, the changes involve more than speed. “It’s quite physical, the boats are unbelievably high performing — it’s just a new lease on life,” Artemis skipper Terry Hutchinson said. “What we’re getting ready to embark on here is something we’ve never seen before.” Oracle Racing is the overwhelming favorite.

BRENT KALLESTAD Associated Press

TALLAHASSEE, Fla.— Florida State football coach Jimbo Fisher and his wife Candi said Friday they have started a fundraising organization to raise money to help their youngest son and others fight a rare lifethreatening blood disease. Both parents also asked people to join the National Marrow Donor Registry during an emotional half-hour news conference. “There are so many people out there who need bone marrow transplants who can’t find the right match,” Candi Fisher said. “That’s something that you can do to help us.” With a large university auditorium room crowded with friends, media and many Seminole players, the Fishers said 6year-old Ethan suffers from Fanconi anemia and will eventually require a bone marrow transplant. Once considered untreatable, the recessive gene disorder affects roughly one of every 300,000 people. Because the disease is so rare, it has been hard for researchers to obtain federal grants to help them in pursuit of a cure. But Ethan’s specialist, Dr. Margaret MacMillan, and the Fishers want to change that. “We are in this to win the fight against Fanconi anemia on behalf of all the children who share this struggle with Ethan,” the second-year Florida State coach said Friday. “We’re here to find a cure.” Ethan and his 10-year-old brother, Trey, posed for photos with their parents prior to the start of the news conference, but did not stay for the announcement. Trey has been screened and does not have the disease. Fisher said dealing with Ethan’s illness, diagnosed March 28 at Shands Hospital in Gainesville, has been the most difficult thing he’s faced. “The unknown was the greatest fear,” he said. “You have to know whether it’s good, bad or indifferent so you

can get a plan of attack. Then you get everything together and go after it.” Candi Fisher, will head the Kidz 1st Fund, will work to raise money through the sale of t-shirts, wristbands and online donations. Jimbo Fisher said he will donate all fees from public speaking appearances to the fund. Nick Saban, who was Fisher’s boss at LSU a decade ago, was among the first to contribute to the Fishers’ newly created foundation. “When it comes to relationships, they’re way more important than playing football games,” Saban said. Roughly 1,000 children in the U.S. have the disorder, which is frequently discovered when a child is suspected to have the flu. Bone marrow transplants may also be recommended for people who suffer from certain type of cancers, other types of anemia or severe immunodeficiency syndromes. Florida State assistant baseball coach Mike Martin Jr., who has two sons the same age as Trey and Ethan and is close to their family, said there was never any doubt that Fisher and his wife would get involved in a project to accelerate research into the disease. “After the initial shock, Jimbo said, ‘watch this, watch us tackle this one,”’ Martin related. “They’re going to meet it head on.”

GOLF never bad at Firestone in any condition. After opening with a 62, Scott was at 8-under 132 along with Ryan Moore (66), Fowler (64) and Bradley (65). Jason Day bogeyed his last hole for a 70 and was one shot behind with Martin Laird (67) and Robert Karlsson (65). “The last time I shot 62 was probably a long time ago, so am I going to expect to do it two days in a row?” Scott said. “I don’t think so. But it’s a hard golf course, and if you’re just a little off, you get quite severely penalized. There’s no real secret that it’s not easy to shoot a couple of 62s.” Fowler was all over the place. He made only five pars, and kept his gallery guessing the rest of the time. There were three

straight birdies, and a wedge he holed from 110 yards for eagle on No. 3. He followed that with three bogeys and three pars. “A lot of good things came out of today,” said Fowler, who is still searching for his first win. “Building some confidence going into the weekend.” No one appeared to have more fun than Bradley, the nephew of LPGA Hall of Fame player Pat Bradley and a winner this year at the Byron Nelson Championship. With big crowds lingering even after Woods left the course, he could hear plenty of cheers for birdies all around him, and even some for himself as he worked his way to the top of the leaderboard. “I had Luke Donald behind me, Phil Mickelson a few groups behind me,” Bradley said. “I mean, it’s something that I dream about since I was 2 years old. It’s kind of happening in front of my eyes, which is a weird feeling to describe. But it’s spectacular. I just can’t express how

much fun I’m having out there.” His biggest birdie came at No. 3, even though it was only a 12foot putt. Bradley played a money game with Mickelson on Wednesday, in which Mickelson serves as a mentor until the final holes when the four-time major champion cares only about getting into Bradley’s pocket. Mickelson pointed to a hole location that can be tricky. The putt looks as if it should break right, but it actually moves left. “And sure enough, I had this exact putt he brought me over to,” Bradley said. “I wanted to make it so bad so I could go back and tell him later tonight.” Mickelson was among those who couldn’t keep up with 31 guys who broke par in the second round. He holed out from the11th fairway for eagle, but followed that with a double bogey on the par-3 12th, and finished with a pair of bogeys for a 73 that put him at even par, eight shots behind.

shots back, but at the same time I felt if I kept playing this way I’m going to get some more chances.” He hit a wedge to about 5 feet on No. 16, and a 6-iron to about 15 feet on No. 17 to set up more birdies. Haas settled for birdie on the par-5 No. 18 after two-putting from about 10 feet. “It was a very, very eventful day,” Haas said.

By RYAN KONOPKI For The Times Leader

DALLAS -- The handful of golfers hanging around the leader board just outside the clubhouse at Irem Temple Country Club late Friday afternoon stared at the wide range of scores posted and agreed on a common theme for the day. Tough, but fair. Scores at the Potentate Tournament at Irem Temple ranged from as low as 4-under par 68 to triple digits due to a challenging course during Friday’s stroke play qualifying round. “The course is set up beautifully and fair,” said Irem Temple’s head golf pro Paul Roman. “This morning it just got windy, and the course being a little wet made for difficult play.” The team of Jim Breck and Jack Mulhern shot best score of the opening round of 68. Only a handful of the 86 teams who competed for one of 16 qualifying spots for today’s championship flight shot under par. More than 20 golfers saw their scores break 80. “The scores weren’t quite what I expected because the course is a little difficult,” Roman said. The team of Charlie Gelso and Greg Mascioli were on pace to shoot well under par, but ran into trouble on the back nine holes. After shooting 2-under par on the front nine, they bogied Nos. 16 and 17 to finish even. Despite being reluctant with their finish, Gelso said they were happy to break even. “My partner and I played very well,” said Gelso. “We were hop-

for long. With one out in the bottom of the third, Jesus Montero singled to left field. Vazquez then crushed a two-run home run way over the left center field wall giving the Yankees the 3-1 advantage after three. Devin Mesoraco then tightened the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankee advantage to just 3-2 with a solo homer to left field. The Yankees widened the gap to four runs with a three-run bottom of the fourth. Luis Nunez and Doug Bernier roped back-toback singles to lead off the inning. Dickerson then bunted advancing both Bernier and Nunez Greg Golson struck out, but Montero drew a walk, which brought Vazquez to the plate with the bases loaded, and two outs. “It’s really important,” Montero said about the walk. “I knew they wanted to pitch to me and wanted me to chase a couple balls. But, thank God I didn’t swing at any of those bad pitches and I gave him the opportunity, and we scored all those runs.” Vazquez cleared the bases with a laser double to right center field and the Yankees lead was 6-2 after four innings. Francisco brought Louisville to within 6-3 with a solo home run to right field in the top of the fifth. Denis Phipps got the Bats even closer in the top of the seventh with a solo blast to left field. The Yankees lead was 6-4 after 7 ½ innings. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre extended its lead to 8-4 in the bottom of the seventh. Laird and

Lamb hit back-to-back singles. Laird then scored on a double that bounced right over the third base bag. Nunez gave the Yankees their eighth run of the game with a sacrifice fly to centerfield. Lamb scored easily from third. D.J. Mitchell earned the win for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and is now 9-8 on the season with an ERA of 3.48. He went six innings allowing three runs on nine hits. He walked two and struck out four. George Kontos picked up the save for the Yankees. It was just the second save of the season for the Yankee right-hander. He pitched 1 1/3 innings of shutout baseball allowing just one hit. The Yankees improved to 6052, while Louisville fell to 59-55. However, Pawtucket and Lehigh Valley also won, so the Yankees remain four games out of first place and 1.5 games out of the wild card race.

NFL agreement finally official Goodell, NFLPA head Smith sign new 10-year deal at Hall of Fame in Canton on Friday. WILL GRAVES AP Sports Writer

CANTON, Ohio — NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and NFLPA head DeMaurice Smith each grabbed a side of the massive 300-page collective bargaining agreement between the players and league owners and exchanged a relieved handshake while posing for the cameras. And just like that, 4 1⁄2 months of acrimony, anger and posturing from both sides during the protracted NFL lockout was over. Smith and Goodell signed the new CBA on a makeshift stage on the steps of the Pro Football Hall of Fame Friday morning, a largely ceremonial gesture after the players agreed to ratify the 10-year

agreement Thursday night. Still, there was a sense of relief from both Smith and Goodell, who shook hands three times during the brief signing and even hugged after spending nearly half a year in tense negotiations haggling over a new way to distribute the NFL’s massive revenue stream. “We’re all relieved because football is back,” Goodell said. “That’s what our fans want, and that’s what we all want and we’re thrilled that we got it done.” One fan shouted “thank you” to Smith as he took his seat, with Smith answering “more than welcome.” Following the signing both men glad-handed their way to the NFL Network’s set inside the Hall of Fame Gallery. With the busts of Hall inductees serving as a backdrop, Smith and Goodell detailed the sometimes difficult journey to the new deal. Neither pointed to a break-

through moment in the lengthy talks, instead crediting leadership on both sides for being able to find common ground so the 2011 season could be saved. Goodell said a small group of player representatives and owners did the leg work of putting aside the considerable differences between the two groups and focusing on the future. “There was a tremendous amount of respect and an attempt to find solutions,” Goodell said. “Once we understood each other and we understood that that was what we were there for, we got it done.” Both Goodell and Smith were vague on the possibility of HGHtesting. Smith called it “something to be strived for,” with Goodell adding ““we’re going to get it done but we want to get it done right.” Testing could begin by the start of the regular season,

though the specifics are still being worked on, as are several other details. It didn’t stop Smith from celebrating a “joyous” day. The process has turned him into a celebrity of sorts, and he spent several minutes posing for pictures with fans before being whisked away in a van. Though the players were eager to get back to work, not every team walked in lockstep to ratify the CBA. The Pittsburgh Steelers voted no, citing the rushed nature of the deal — the Steelers didn’t receive a copy until 3 p.m. — and the agreement’s inability to address Goodell’s role as judge and jury for on-the-field discipline. “We felt it was shoved down our throats,” Pittsburgh defensive tackle Willie Colon said Thursday. Smith declined to discuss Pittsburgh’s vote. NFLPA spokesman George Atallah said simply

HOUSTON—ArianFosterled the NFL in rushing last season, and Houston Texans teammate Steve Slaton was the top rookie rusher in 2008. Throw in Ben Tate, Derrick Ward and Chris Ogbonnaya, and a team that once struggled to find a dependable running back is now overstocked. Foster was on Houston’s practice squad for much of 2009 before last year’s breakout season, when he rushed for 1,616 yards and16 touchdowns. He knows he can’t rely on what he did last year to be successful in 2011. “The crazy thing about this league is that — coach (Gary Kubiak) says it all the time — that you have to prove yourself every single day,” Foster said. “You could lead the league in rushing one day and the next day they’ll forget you fast. You have to keep on making your mark.” Foster sat out much of Friday’s practice after experiencing tightness in his hamstring, but should be OK. It was a setback that Kubiak said highlighted the need to have a deep group at the position, as players get banged up throughout the season. “We’re going to end up with four dang good ones and we may be in a situation where we can keep five,” Kubiak said. “So we’re strong at that position right now, but y’all know how this works. You come out one day or play one preseason game and you go from having a bunch of them to somethinghappening.Solet’sjustkeep our fingers crossed that they’re all going to be there at the end and we’re going to have a good group.” Slaton had 1,282 yards rushing with nine touchdowns as a rookie in2008,buthasn’tdonealotsince then while dealing with injuries

and the emergence of Foster. He’s healthy now, and the Texans believe he could add to the running game. Tate was selected in the second round of the 2010 draft after rushing for 1,362 yards and 10 touchdowns as a senior at Auburn. He was expected to see limited playing time last season, but missed his entire rookie year after breaking his ankle in Houston’s first preseason game. “I’m very anxious to get back to a preseason game and get to show everyone, the fans, the organization, teammates, what I can do,” he said. Houston has so many options at the position that the team may not be able to keep all of them. “He’s in a battle,” Kubiak said of Tate. “He’s working as a fourth

He worked.” The teams Sanders played for generally worked their way into the playoffs. In 1994, he joined the 49ers and helped them win the Super Bowl. The next year, he was headed to Dallas, helping the Cowboys win their third title in four seasons. Faulk was just as formidable, though, retiring with 12,279 yards and 100 touchdowns rushing, another 6,875 yards and 36 TDs as a receiver. His dominance in an 12-season career, the first five with Indianapolis, the last seven in St. Louis, earned him election to the hall over two other running backs who be-

Sharpe retired in 2003 and missed out on making the hall in his first two years of eligibility. He compiled 10,060 yards receiving and 62 touchdowns, monstrous numbers for a tight end, and won three Super Bowls — two with Denver, one with Baltimore.

PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers are going rogue. About a dozen Steelers are playing members of the Gotham Rogues, the home team taking on the equally fictitious Rapid City Monuments in a new Batman movie currently filming in Pittsburgh. Thousands of extras playing fans also have been recruited for Saturday’s shoot for “The Dark Knight Rises” at Heinz Field. The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported that players getting their star turn include Ben Roethlisberger, Hines Ward, Willie Colon, Maurkice Pouncey, Mike Wallace, Heath Miller, Aaron Smith, Ryan Clark, Troy Polamalu, James Farrior and Casey Hampton. “I don’t think it will be a big part, It’s not like we’re chasing Batman down or anything,” Roethlisberger said. “It’s something neat that in 10 years or 20 years we can tell our kids we were in a movie.” Linebacker LaMarr Woodley told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review that he was a big Batman fan as a youngster and can’t wait to be in the movie. “I can tell somebody I was in ‘Batman,”’ Farrior said. “That’s going to be awesome.” Production on the film, director Christopher Nolan’s third in the trilogy, will continue in Pittsburgh through the end of August. The film, scheduled to be released in July 2012, stars Christian Bale as the caped crusader and his alter ego, Bruce Wayne, along with Gary Oldman and Anne Hathaway. The previous two films are “Batman Begins” and “The Dark Knight.” Thomas Tull, the film’s executive producer, joined the Steelers ownership group two years ago. He helped bring the movie to Pittsburgh and wanted to get the Steelers involved. ly was outlawed. Chosen by the senior committee, Hanburger left the game in 1978, never winning a championship. That doesn’t mean he wasn’t a standout, with coach George Allen allowing the linebacker to call defenses. And Allen had some intricate schemes. Richter, also chosen by the senior committee, died last year. He played linebacker for the Los Angeles Rams from 1954-62. They traded 11 players for him and waited two years while he was in the military before he suited up. He made the wait worthwhile, going to eight straight Pro Bowls. He also was a center and kicker. Sabol is the founder of NFL Films, an organization that has changed the way the game has been viewed. Considered a pioneer in use of multiple cameras and slow motion to depict the intensity, speed and violence of the sport, Sabol began his association with the NFL in 1962 when he filmed the league’s championship game.

Retailers’ turn

A look at consumer spending Consumer spending

Economists don’t expect anything dramatic to come out of the Federal Reserve’s meeting Tuesday on the economy and interest rates. It’s expected that the Fed’s statement after the meeting will say that interest rates will remain at their current levels for another year or more. If the statement gives a bleaker view of the economy than investors expect, it could set off more selling in the stock market.

Retailers begin reporting their second-quarter earnings in the coming week. Macy’s releases its report on Wednesday and J.C. Penney reports on Friday. Sales have looked better the past two months, in part because hot weather increased demand for summer merchandise. Investors worried about the possibility of another recession will want to see stores’ forecasts for the rest of the year.

The Commerce Department’s retail sales report for July is expected to show that consumers were spending at a higher rate than during the spring. That may be the result of gas prices that have fallen slightly in recent months. But a strong report isn’t likely to send stocks higher. Investors will be looking ahead to the August report next month – it may show that the plunge in the stock market has scared many consumers out of spending.

If you looked away Friday, you might have missed a market rally. Or a plunge. A soothing government report on employment in July eased concerns that the U.S. might slide back into a recession, and the Dow Jones industrial average rose as much as 171 points soon after trading began. But fears that Europe’s growing debt crisis might threaten U.S. banks and the fragile economy ruled Friday. After its early rise, the Dow fell more than 400 points and was down 243 just before noon. Stocks have been “like a tether ball being smacked around the pole” by worries about weakening economies around the world, said Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist for Standard & Poor’s Equity Research.

HARRISBURG – The state Liquor Control Board’s one-year experiment with wine kiosks may soon be coming to an end. The LCB claims the Conshohockenbased contractor that provided the kiosks owes the state nearly $1 million. The contractor disputes this. But the liquor board has warned that if its differences with Simple Brands L.L.C. can’t be resolved within the next 45 days, it will "cease all kiosk operations," according to letters between the board and the company obtained by The Inquirer.

Asked about the money dispute Thursday, Joe Conti, the board’s chief executive officer, said: "We are going to continue working in good faith to try to make this program work . . . but it appears the working relationship (between the LCB and Simple Brands) has diminished in recent weeks." Calls to Simple Brands officials were not returned Thursday. A woman who said she was unaffiliated with the company answered the door at its office in Conshohocken and said nobody from Simple Brands was there. The office looked empty. Simple Brands was to provide the machines at no cost to the state but

would share in the proceeds. The LCB contends it was to be reimbursed for any expenses it incurred, such as for stocking or wiring the kiosks. Under the contract, the LCB pays Simple Brands 50 cents for every bottle sold, and customers pay an added $1 fee on every transaction that goes to the company. Simple Brands also makes money by selling advertising on the machines. The LCB abruptly shut the kiosks down last year right before the winter holidays. It cited mechanical problems, including kiosks that took customers’ money but failed to give up the wine. In June, the Wegmans supermarket

Wegmans employee James Murphy explains the operation of the wine kiosk that was put back in to service Feb. 1.

The Federal Reserve says consumers increased their borrowing by $15.5 billion in June. That’s the largest onemonth gain since August 2007 and three times the amount borrowed in May. A category that measures credit card use increased by $5.2 billion. It was only the third increase since September 2008, during the height of the financial crisis. Borrowing is usually a sign of confidence in the economy. Consumers tend to take on more debt when they feel wealthier. But an increase in credit card debt could also signal that people are falling on harder times.

Bank of America has started contacting customers who may be entitled to a refund as the result of a class-action settlement over the way it charged overdraft fees. Bank of America agreed to set up a $410 million fund to settle the lawsuit. The money will be used to pay back customers who were charged overdraft fees as a result of the company’s policy of processing debit card transactions based on the size of the transaction, rather than when the purchases occurred.

The jobs report surpassed most econWASHINGTON — Hiring picked up omists’ expectations. They had foreslightly in July, and the unemployment cast a net gain of 90,000 jobs.

rate dipped to 9.1 percent. The modest improvement could ease fears of another recession, but it wasn’t enough to prevent another wild day of trading on Wall Street. Employers added 117,000 jobs last month, the Labor Department said Friday. The figure was the best in three months. And the job totals for May and June were revised up. Retailers, factories and health care firms were among the many industries that added workers. Even another loss of government jobs wasn’t too worrisome, after considering that most of them stemmed from the temporary shutdown in Minnesota, which has since ended. The jobs report surpassed most economists’ expectations. They had forecast a net gain of 90,000 jobs. But other re-

cent data show the U.S. economy remains weak and isn’t generating enough jobs to lower the unemployment rate. At least 250,000 net new jobs a month are needed to rapidly reduce unemployment. The rate has topped 9 percent in every month except two since the recession officially ended in June 2009. “This pauses the conversation on the U.S. slipping back into recession; it does not end the conversation,” said Tom Porcelli, chief U.S. economist at RBC Capital Markets. President Barack Obama on Friday pointed to the modest job gains to press Congress to extend a Social Security tax cut enacted this year that put an extra $1,000 to $2,000 in most workers’ pockets. He also called for a renewal of

emergency unemployment benefits, which provide up to 99 weeks of support. The tax cuts and extra benefits are scheduled to expire at the end of this year. Economists have cautioned that the end of the two programs could weaken growth in 2012. In July, businesses added 154,000 jobs across many industries. Governments cut 37,000 jobs last month, the ninth straight drop. The unemployment rate fell from 9.2 percent in June partly because some unemployed workers stopped looking for work. That means they’re no longer counted as unemployed. The number of people working part time who would prefer full-time work declined. When you add them to the number of people who are either unemployed or have given up looking for work, 25.1 million people were “underemployed” in July.

GENEVA — Switzerland has a balanced budget, low unemployment and a strong currency. On the face of things, the pristine Alpine nation has much to be proud of amid the economic turmoil in surrounding Europe and the United States. But as investors rush to trade U.S. dollars and euros for Swiss francs, sending the currency to record highs in recent weeks, Switzerland’s enviable economic record has become a heavy burden. On Friday, lawmakers, trade unions and economists called for emergency measures to prevent mass layoffs in Switzerland’s export, retail and tourism industries. All have suffered badly from the franc’s surge. “The strong franc is causing enormous damage to our economy,” said Peter Lauener of Switzerland’s trade union federation SGB. “The Swiss National Bank has no choice but to set an upper limit on the value of the franc if we don’t want to risk tens of thousands of jobs,” he said. Corrado Pardini, a lawmaker with the Social Democratic Party, said Switzerland had to react to the economic jitters of its euro zone trading partners, even if their woes weren’t its fault. The appeals followed a failed SNB attempt Wednesday to deter investors by lowering the country’s already feeble interest rate target to near zero and opening the taps for commercial banks to increase their overdrafts — effectively printing free money in a bid to make the franc less attractive. About 10 percent of Switzerland’s work force depends directly on exports, whose value in francs is sinking in line with the dollar and euro.

P&G profit increases despite low expectations for U.S. sales By DAN SEWELL AP Business Writer

CINCINNATI — Procter & Gamble Co. plans to seek out new consumers in emerging markets around the globe while giving shoppers in the U.S. and other developed markets more choices in products and prices as their countries’ economies continue to sputter. The maker of Gillette shavers, Tide detergent and Pamper diapers reported double-di-

git net income and revenue increases for its fourth quarter with sales gains in countries led by Brazil, India and China. But it gave a cautious forecast for the year ahead because of expectations for little growth in the United States and other developed countries. P&G’s guidance indicated slowing sales in this quarter, which began July 1. “I don’t think there’s any question that consumers, par-

ticularly in developed markets, are under pressure,” Bob McDonald, P&G’s chairman and CEO, told reporters Friday in a conference call. P&G shares rose $1.01 cents to $60.59 in Friday trading. They’ve traded from $59.17 to $67.72 in the past year. The company said it is cutting costs by restructuring management and streamlining operations, but is outspending competitors in research and de-

velopment of new products and in marketing.

NATIONAL FORECAST: A pair of low pressure systems will be responsible for showers and thunderstorms over much of the East and back into the Ohio Valley. A few strong to severe storms will be possible over the Ohio Valley. Another system will produce showers and thunderstorms over the northern Plains and Upper Midwest. A few of these storms could be strong to severe as well.

One of the most intense rainfalls of the summer occurred Friday in Charlotte, N.C. In just 2 hours, 6.8 inches fell, turning baseball fields into lakes. This can happen when slow moving thunderstorms keep forming over the same area along stalled fronts. Indeed, we have our share of flash flooding events during the summer months that are often very localized covering only a few square miles. The rain approaching this weekend could be heavy for a time in spots especially tonight and on Sunday. Close to one inch of rain is possible helping to keep our rainfall this summer running above normal. - Tom Clark

Lessons emerge from the land of lost luggage “S

hen a neighbor stopped by with a basket of information to welcome Susan Rohr to the neighborhood, she was touched. “It just made me feel really comfortable in my new home,” said Rohr, who bought a house in the historic Kenwood neighborhood in St. Petersburg, Fla., nearly four years ago. “It made me feel like I moved to the right place.” The neighborhood association has had a welcome program for years, said Rohr, who now heads it. The social call helps engage residents in the community and gives them a chance to ask questions. In many areas, the practice of welcoming new residents has moved beyond a neighbor dropping by with a plate of cookies to a more formal, community-sponsored visit. Neighborhood associations often use such visits to acquaint new homeowners with the rules and regulations of a community. Other organizations use the opportunity to promote local businesses, social services or events. “Many associations have some sort

residents to an orientation meeting, which includes games and prizes. Residents also can request a visit from a member of the welcome committee. “We’re bigger than some cities,” said Sue Sweeney, executive director of the community association. “It’s very easy for people to get lost in the crowd.” In Farnam, Neb., members of the town’s Economic Development Corp. have put together an information booklet about local service clubs, government offices and churches. Volunteers deliver it along with coupons from area businesses.

It’s not that men have something against clean clothes. It’s the cleaning of the clothes that’s the sticky point. The survey, which involved phone

Blue jeans average five wearings between washings. Underwear is worn twice, though 12 percent of the men said they’ll often manage a third use.

Nearly 41 percent of men told pollsters they share laundry responsibilities with their partners.

turdily and Spartan-like.” Living life reduced “to its lowest terms,” in a 10-by-15 Massachusetts cottage. Good for him. But Henry David Thoreau I am not. And likely never will be. Not that I haven’t long suspected this (ahem), but an inability, even, to live a highly simplified life for eight days in an approximately 10-by-15 stateroom over the ocean now has me utterly convinced. Our revered essayist went to the woods because he wished to live deliberately — you know the deal — and front only the essential facts of life. I, on the other hand, boarded a cruise ship because I wished to live somewhat profligately, albeit temporarily, while hauling, OK, just a bit more than the essential stuff of life. (Which is to say all that could reasonably fill the two reasonably sized bags the ship suggested was reasonable to entrust to its care.) So off we went to the Eastern Caribbean, while off one of my bags, stuffed with essentials, went to Bermuda, in essentially the opposite direction. So much for I’ve seen a nice little chunk of the world and never, not even once, had my luggage lost. Yes, it can happen on a cruise ship, mates. Trying my best to channel an austere poet extraordinaire while receiving my dreadful news, I reacted in the only manner I could muster at the moment, which was to have a near-meltdown, especially after I was assured my bag and I soon would reunite in New York, at the conclusion of our voyage. (The two ships, see, already had passed in the night, though the first night hadn’t even really fallen.) Long story short, I guess you can figure out I survived, even with only the shoes on my feet and the dangling pink stones in my ears. And ultimately the compensation I’d deemed not nearly enough proved a tad more than enough to have a no-extra-expense high old time on the high seas. In fact, on my next cruise, I even postulated, I might actually want to nudge a bag to wander off … To that end, upon safe return to home sweet home, I put myself in a sort of training mode, casing my three floors to check on all my other “essentials,” inquiring how much they missed me while trying to determine how much we really — and I mean really — need each other, if at all. In other words, what was the takeaway here? To paraphrase one of my all-time-favorite patriotic songs: If tomorrow all the things were gone I’ve worked for all my life … Would I deal? How would I deal? Well hello there, Samsung plus happily humming DVR. Nice to see you’ve left the light on for me. (Means you’ve functioned properly in my absence.) Hey ho, my sweet, sweet Keurig coffeepot I never, ever have to clean. I’ll be with you shortly, chum. Howdy, toaster and toaster oven, cohabitating on this countertop in mockery of the grand experiment that poorly hypothesized “one of these is surely redundant.” A wave to all the books taking up all that precious downstairs shelf space (but I can’t seem to part with any) and a trudge to the top of the steps was all it took to convince me this mission was increasingly futile. Nothing like cold, hard reality in the form of three closets (packed largely with the unused or useless) to bring a self ask a self: “You can live a simpler life? Who are you kidding? How about starting with only two sets of sheets?” I am not proud. Indeed I am ashamed, especially having again caught a glimpse of poverty in paradise. Reform is nigh. This time I mean it. The first step can be a baby step: I’ll gladly pack up 17 extra pairs of shoes in which someone, I hope, can happily walk a mile or two.

This country residence, Plan HMAFAPW00549 from Homeplans.com, has classic farmhouse good looks and a just-right floor plan, which covers 3,096 square feet of living space, plus an unfinished basement for future expansion. The wraparound covered porch at the entry gives way to a long foyer with an open staircase. To the left is the living room with a fireplace and the formal dining room. As the centerpiece of the plan, the extensive country kitchen has a cooktop island and room for casual dining near a cozy hearth. The hardworking utility zone nearby includes a mudroom leading from the garage, and the laundry room with counter space and a window. Sleeping quarters are equally appealing. A private bath with a separate dressing room, whirlpool tub and walk-in closet completes the mainfloor master suite. The second floor holds three bedrooms, one of which could easily function as a second master suite (handy for housing an in-law or sleeping closer to young children) with its large bedroom, private bathroom, walk-in closet and large storage area. A full hall bath serves the other two bedrooms at the top of the staircase to the

Q: The contractors who installed my tile floor six months ago left a haze of grout over the tiles, and I’m unable to remove it. A: Removing grout haze from a tile floor as the work is in progress is one of the keys to a job well done, and it seems that your contractors didn’t care. I’ve installed several tile floors over the years, and the Hometime video I watched 200 times in the late 1980s stated clearly that if you removed the haze as you worked on the floor, clean water and a clean sponge were all that was necessary. Let the tile set for 24 to 36 hours, and follow the clean sponge/clean water procedure again. You then use a clean, dry rag to wipe down the tiles, and another clean dry rag to polish off the haze. If you let haze removal go for six months, the sponge and water technique won’t work, and you’ll need a commercial cleaning product instead. If you know the name of the tile manufacturer, you might want to contact it to find out what is recommended for the tile so it won’t be damaged. If you buy a grout-haze remover at the hardware store, test it first in an area that is somewhat hidden from view in the event it damages the tile. Follow the safety directions on the product — wear gloves, long sleeves, and safety glasses — while you are working. Q: We live in a home that was built in 1939. The bathroom has a tub and a separate shower. The walls of the shower are completely tiled in subway tiles, which are in good shape and still secure after all these years. The grout is in good shape also. However, some of the tiles are discolored. At first, we thought this might be mildew, but treating the tiles with mildew remover or bleach did not remove the discoloration. On closer inspection, it appears that the discoloration is behind the glaze, which would explain why the bleach did not work. No tiles other than those in the shower are discolored.

YOUR PLACE ALAN J. HEAVENS We had several contractors in to look at the problem, but once they saw it was wet bed construction, they never even gave us an estimate — not only were they not interested in replacing the entire shower (which we were ready to do in desperation), but they did not suggest replacing individual tiles either, a difficult job because the grout lines are very narrow at 1/32nd of an inch. Also, we were concerned that replacement tiles would be a different shade compared with tiles that were in place for more than 70 years. A: Everything on the Internet I’ve seen seems to address replacing the tiles rather than cleaning them. But because this is wet bed, removing individual tiles with such narrow grout lines cleanly would be difficult, which is the reason the contractors wouldn’t offer an estimate. Let’s ask readers for their help. Q: I own a house built in 1954, which I love. It now has three layers of linoleum in the kitchen and surrounding area. I would like to have the old linoleum removed and new linoleum installed. Can you tell me more about having the three layers removed? And where can I get industrial linoleum? I prefer it because it is almost indestructible and is in keeping with the integrity of the house. A: Check out Armstrong’s light industrial linoleum at http://alturl.com/pcgnx. Although it is for commercial applications, I am sure that it would be available for residential, or that Armstrong would tell you where you might buy it. Removal? I once removed linoleum from a bathroom that was both glued and nailed and believe it was three layers. In my case, ceramic tile replaced the linoleum floor, so I screwed a backerboard subfloor on top of the glue that couldn’t be removed with a belt sander. Questions? Email Alan J.

Grow up! Maximize space with vertical gardening growing up the poles with strawberries. “You try to use every inch of space you have,” Aur says. “You don’t just grow something up, you grow something out of it.”

By SARAH WOLFE For the Associated Press

Living walls The trendiest vertical-gardening technique is living walls — fences, patio walls or other surfaces covered in plants, flowers, succulents, even fruits and vegetables. There are two main ways to do this, Sweet says.Thefirstinvolvesmodular,mountabletray planters, and the second uses breathable fabric “pockets” that can be hung on a wall. Sweet suggests starting small with one pocketgardenfromamanufacturerlikeWoollyPockets ($39) that will hold three or four plants. Hangitalongawallorfencethatgetspartialsun to avoid drying out the smaller amount of soil. “Instead of flowers, consider planting herbs or vegetables,” Sweet says. “Mixing trailing herbs like thyme and oregano with upright red and green lettuces will not only look great, but because your garden will be off the ground, you’ll have fewer problems with pests.” Succulents, which don’t need as much soil, workbetterintraysystemsbecausetheyneedbetter irrigation than the pockets provide, she says.

Arbors/trellises Aurpreferstotrainplantsandflowerstowrap around lattices, arbors, trellises and other frameworks to give her small gardens more vertical structure and shape. She uses a combination of Italian cypress trees and trellises coated with clematis vines to create a cozy, outdoor room in her back yard. Aur bought the iron trellises at Lowe’s, and under-plants them with roses, columbines, irises andotherperennialstotakefulladvantageofthe space through layering. She grows vines on vinyl-coated wire available at hardware and some big-box stores and hooks the wire onto fences, making it easy to take down for painting or repairs. Aur also uses the technique with vegetables, using elderberry sticks in stainless-steel tubs bought at Home Depot to grow early-season sweet peas with later-producing cantaloupes. She grows cucumbers up a trellis on the back of her greenhouse and under-plants whatever is

Skinny spaces Awkward side yards and other skinny spaces often turn into dumping grounds for toys, old barbecuesandotheroddities,particularlyinthecity.Uneven lighting and lack of soil can make these areas challenging for growing. But Sweet says she has yetto“meetthebedthatissoskinnyyoucan’tplant in it,” and suggests layering to create a lush look. The top or back layer is the backbone of any vertical bed. Sweet suggests vines easily trained to grow flat against a wall like black-eyed Susan and clematis, or vase-shaped shrubs and trees like boxleaf azara and flowering maple that allow plenty of room for planting below. The middle layer should feature perennials with tall, delicate flower stalks, or finely textured ornamental grasses such as flowering tobacco, vervain, Scotch heather and yarrow. “By choosing plants that can be ‘seen through,’ your skinny space will appear larger and more lush than it really is,” Sweet says. Small-scale grasses, ground-hugging shrubs and compact perennials anchor the bottom layer, she says. Foliage plants are particularly effective in this layer and provide more months of interest than flowers alone. “By creating your layers vertically instead of horizontally, even beds a few feet wide can rival the most lavish perennial border,” Sweet says.

In “Apartment Gardening: Plants, Projects and Recipes for Growing Food in Your Urban Home” (Sasquatch Books, 2011), author Amy Pennington instructs readers to remove the drawers and lay the filing cabinet on its back.

Visitors to our barns and nursery often ask how the animals so quickly adapt to their new surroundings. Almost effortlessly the calves learn about behaviors, eating and most importantly, safety. Quite simply, calves (along with our other farm animals) learn by observing their Mothers; in some cases the “Mom” is a member of our trusted barn crew. We believe our calves if guided and nurtured properly will most likely reach their full potential. We feel as strongly about children as well. I often wonder if parents or other adults realize the powerful impact they have on children. Kids, from when they are quite young, often imitate the world around them. Honestly, I cannot think of a better way to teach children the value of kindness and respect than by example. The great thing about teaching by example is that it does not cost money or time - only

talk about these things and really learn what there is here.” The group can still be beneficial for those who have lived in the area for several years. “Anymore people tend to just go to work, go home and stay home,” East said. “They’re on their computers or watching television. We don’t get out and meet our neighbors any more.” “You kind of get lost in your own world, and it’s nice to get out and be social.” Those who live in the Mountain Top area and are interested in joining the club can attend the next meeting at noon Sept. 15 at the Presbyterian Church of Mountain Top at 6 Chestnut St.

awareness. For instance, if you see a piece of liter on the ground do you ignore it? Do you toss bottles, cans and newspapers or do you recycle? Do you slow down at mealtime to recognize the farmers and others who worked so you could have food? Do you take the time to share this with your children? Even younger kids can have a basic understanding and appreciation how work and sacrifice fits into the big family picture. When you see someone a bit different - be it the color of skin, style or general appearance do you react with hesitation or ever distrust? Do you quietly volunteer for projects for the sake of kindness, not kudos? The mission here at The Lands is to teach sustainability and self-sufficiency and we do this primarily through educational tours and workshops. Each year our educators and animal “co-faculty” members welcome nearly 4,000 students to the farm. We stress the delicate balance among humans, animals and nature, demonstrating how we all are interconnected. What is most satisfying about our programs is seeing our message “click” with the students. You can have a profound impact a child’s life by your everyday actions – good or bad. This means every day you have an opportunity to teach and ultimately help shape our future.

Big on ideas but short on space? Maximize your yard’s potential by growing up — not out — with vertical gardening. Long a staple in Europe, vertical gardening is blooming among U.S. landscapers, designers and home gardeners looking to transform skinny side yards, bitty balconies and cramped courtyards into living, breathing masterpieces. “People are trying to maximize every square inch of their property, and more and more people have smaller properties or just a balcony or courtyard,buttheystillwanttohaveagarden,”saysRebecca Sweet, co-author with Susan Morrison of “Garden Up! Smart Vertical Gardening for Small and Large Spaces” (Cool Springs Press, 2011). Theoptionsareendless.Arbors,trellises,lattice frames,fabricpockets,trellisesandobelisks,along with unorthodox methods and materials, such as rebar and even old filing cabinets. But don’t be daunted. Vertical gardening is surprisingly beginnerfriendly, and experts say supplies are cheap and easy to find at big-box stores such as Lowe’s and Home Depot. Sweet, of Los Altos, Calif., and retired horticulturist Tina Aur of Memphis, Tenn., break down the main elements of vertical gardening and offer tips to get your green thumb in gear this summer.

Bride-to-be wants a do-over on groom’s surprise marriage proposal Dear Abby: My fiancee, “Vanessa,” and I have been engaged almost a year. We’re to be married in three months. When I popped the question, I took her to one of her favorite spots in the Smoky Mountains. When I proposed, she was overcome with emotion — but not the kind I would have thought. She said yes, but she wasn’t at all happy about being surprised. At the time, I was sure she had an inkling about my intentions. We had discussed becoming engaged several times. Now, as the wedding draws near, she wants me to “re-propose.” It makes me feel like my first wasn’t good enough, and it is really upset-

DEAR ABBY ADVICE ting me. I only intended to do it once in my life. What would you recommend? — Questioned-Out in Ohio Dear Questioned-Out: I recommend you clear the air with Vanessa ASAP. Tell her you intended to propose only once in your life, and that her request has hurt your feelings. If she still insists on a second proposal, ask for a script so you won’t disappoint her again. Dear Abby: We stand in line for

movie tickets, sporting events, Black Friday shopping, etc. Am I being overly sensitive when I have stood in line and the person in front of me allows family or friends to cut in? It irks me no end when I have spent anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours waiting and someone butts in front of me. How can I tactfully address this without being confrontational? Or should I just bite my tongue and move on? — Standing in Line Dear Standing: It’s one thing when a person lets a spouse or one other person in — and quite another when it’s half a dozen people. However, folks this rude can be hypersensitive when challenged and cause an alter-

cation, so I don’t recommend taking them on. Dear Abby: How can I get my stepsons to show some compassion and love for their father? They seem to forget that they have him, and that he labored to help them become successful citizens. He’s a kind and sensitive man who should be cherished. He has Alzheimer’s disease and needs their love now more than ever. They live in other states, but could call more than once a year. My husband doesn’t say much about them anymore. He did when we first married six years ago. We keep busy, but I cry for him. He has no family. His first wife lived for her sons only and probably forgot about her relationship

with my husband. Perhaps this attitude was passed on to his sons. How do others in my situation cope? — Crying in Wisconsin Dear Crying: Dry your tears, pick up the phone and encourage the “boys” to call their father once a week to say they are thinking of him and love him — and to share some memory their father will relate to. And should your husband’s sons have a memory lapse and forget to call, remind them — but do it without laying a guilt trip. To receive a collection of Abby’s most memorable — and most frequently requested — poems and essays, send a business-sized, selfaddressed envelope, plus check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear Abby’s “Keepers,” P.O.

HOROSCOPE BY HOLIDAY MATHIS

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

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You want to move in exciting circles, so it should come as good news that your own inner circle is the most riveting place to be these days. The action and drama will be nonstop into the weekend. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You are playing a highly competitive game. The winner will be the one who has the advantage of a supportive team. It begs the question: How supportive is your team? GEMINI (May 21-June 21). In some roundabout way, you’ll be asked to give a brief summary of your life thus far. You usually have an answer ready, but lately you find that your story is changing. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You have strong feelings about current issues, and you want to express them. Finding the right forum will be key to maintaining your happiness. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll be once again in a position to entertain others. You’ll also be in a comfortable and adventurous mood, so depart from your usual bag of tricks and develop some new material. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll challenge yourself to fulfill a new role. Stay confident in your abilities. Someone may be more technically qualified than you are, but you are still the best one for the job. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your eye contact signals strength and confidence, which is why someone is irresistibly attracted to you. Whether or not this will be a good relationship for you is another story. Take it slow.

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

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You will be a bit more impulsive than usual and likely to take a chance that you wouldn’t have dared take only a few days ago. The reasons feel far less relevant than the bold feeling inside you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). People are stubborn now, and you won’t be able to force them according to your will. However, a certain amount of hocus-pocus may work to distract them into doing exactly as you prefer. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You will be asked difficult questions by someone you would love to impress. Perhaps there is financial incentive involved. Keep your answers brief and relevant. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You will meet people who love to talk about themselves and also people who won’t open up at all. You have a talent for bringing out the best in both types today. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). In today’s rude cell-phone-centric environment, basic manners will give you an edge. It’s so easy. Don’t use your phone while dining, driving or conversing with others. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (August 6). This year, you’ll increase your breadth of knowledge and your understanding of your subject of study. You’ll be hailed for your intelligence, as well as your ability to relate well to others. September brings transformation. Relationship success leads to a special accomplishment in December. Aquarius and Taurus people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 20, 16, 25 and 18.

Royal Enfield motorcycle a retro ride with modern practicality dynamometer, I can only go by my seat-of-the-pants diagnostic gear. Using that equipment, the C5 felt a bit quicker off the line. On the other hand, the 27-horsepower G5 felt plenty quick to me, and I’ve owned bikes rated at over 100 horsepower.

SCOTT WASSER WHEELS OPINION As the pavement ahead transitions from a fairly straight rural road to a series of gently curving bends, the motorcycle beneath me responds appreciatively. It flows smoothly from curve to curve, like a pet snake coiling around its owner’s arm.

I was particularly impressed with the G5’s ability to reach and then cruise at 72 mph (according to its speedometer) on the interstate. It also had commendable low-end thrust while ambling around town. The Bullets deliver that kind of pep will producing fuel economy of up to 70 miles per gallon, according to Greene.

Unlike other bikes I’ve ridden, this one doesn’t demand the full and undivided attention of its operator at all times. The bike, a Royal Enfield, is so laid back and effortless to operate that I have time to contemplate its origins while enjoying its ride.

Not bad considering how much fun you can have on one of these new Royal Enfield scoots. Both test bikes felt light and maneuverable, initiated turns quickly, and clung tenaciously to the tightest curves.

According to its maker, the bike I was riding traces its heritage to a fishhook and needle manufacturing company started in England in 1851. That company was making bicycles and had evolved into Royal Enfield by 1893. By 1900, it was producing motorized tricycles and quadricycles, and is generally credited with producing its first motorcycle in 1901.

As the current owner of two BMW motorcycles, I was surprised at how refined they felt. I had to occasionally hunt for neutral, but all the other gear changes occurred smoothly. The brakes are powerful and predictable. The ride is pleasant on all but the roughest roads, and the solo spring seat even kept things pretty comfy on those.

Classic styling, modern engineering and affordable pricing may be more than enough to sell a bunch of Royal Enfield motorcycles. But combine that with a fun ride that delivers over 70 miles per gallon and you have the potential for a sales success story.

saddle. The second was a 2011 Classic Chrome model with a spring-cushioned solo seat.

That would make Royal Enfield the oldest motorcycle brand in the world (Harley Davidson didn’t produce its first true motorcycle until 1904), although it is now manufactured in India rather than its native England.

Like the other two Royal Enfield models sold in the U.S., the two test bikes rely on most of the same mechanical components. That means a 500 cc single-cylinder engine with electronic fuel injection, a five-speed gearbox and front-disc/rear drum brake.

After a long hiatus Royal Enfield returned to the U.S. market in 1995. The dealer network really began to grow under current U.S. importer/distributer, Classic Motor Works, and now numbers nearly 100.

Since the 2009 model year, all Royal Enfield models sold in the U.S. also have had electronic fuel injection, electric pushbutton starters and a onepiece Unit Construction Engineering engine/transmission.

I recently rode two different Royal Enfield models. The first was a 2010 Electra Deluxe with a dual-passenger

Greene had less conviction about Royal Enfield’s model designations, which I find terribly confusing. The product brochure shows five models, but Greene says one is unavailable in the U.S. The models that are available are designated Classic Chrome, Classic, Bullet 500 and Electra Deluxe in the brochure but differently on the company’s website.

That might not sound like much until you consider that Royal Enfield rates its engine’s output at just over 27 horsepower. A three-horsepower bump would be about an 11 percent increase.
