TRIPOLI, Libya — Trying to outmaneuver Western military intervention, Moammar Gadhafi’s government declared a cease-fire on Friday against the rebel uprising faltering against his artillery, tanks and warplanes. The opposition said shells rained down well after the announcement and accused the Libyan leader of lying. Wary of the cease-fire, Britain and France took the lead in plans to enforce a no-fly zone, sending British warplanes to the Mediterranean and announcing a crisis summit in Paris with the U.N. and Arab allies.

John Hasay March 17, 2011

John A. Hasay, 95, farmer, businessman, and veteran, passed away on Thursday, March 17, 2011. Born in 1915, in Fairmount Springs, Pa., he was the second son of the late George and Mary Paciga Hasay. He worked the family farm and walked to one-room schoolhouses on Red Hill and later in Pleasant Valley. With his father he sold eggs, potatoes, and jugs of apple cider in the North End of Wilkes-Barre, and from these early experiences he developed the skills to later sell cars. During the Great Depression, he found work in the mines with the Nottingham Coal Co. in Plymouth. When the WPA was formed, with his older brother, Andrew, he drove a dump truck at the Bernice Mines near Lopez, Pa. When World War II started, being in the service, he and his wife, the former Anna Orzechowski Hasay, who passed away in 2003, were married in October 1944, but the Army then shipped him overseas to the ChinaBurma-India Asiatic Pacific Theater, where he was stationed with the 859th Ordnance Heavy Equipment Co. as an engineer. He played a part in the construction of the Ledo Road from India to China, described as one of the greatest engineering feats of the entire war. After the war, he became a road foreman for the Pennsylvania Department of Highways and began selling cars for Bill Johnson Chevrolet and R.G. Smith in Berwick. Then Dodge went on strike in 1950, which caused him to work for Doyle Sutliff Chevrolet, where he and his younger brother, Joseph, later bought the Shickshinny business, forming Hasay Chevrolet in 1956. When Joseph suddenly passed away in 1958, John ran the business alone every day while supporting his wife and three young sons. During this time, not only did he achieve outstanding success – single-handedly selling more than 1,000 new Chevrolets in the 1973 model year – but also while being a Democratic Committeeman for over 50 years, he raised three sons, one becoming a State Representative, another, a Magisterial District Judge, while his third son worked with him at the business. His small town Chevrolet dealership was one of the nation’s longest running single Motor Division franchises in Chevrolet history, selling Chevys for over 54 years. He held life membership at the American Legion Post 495, the Mocanaqua V.F.W. Post 6434, and the United Sportsmen Camp 271. He was on the Board of Directors for the former Wyoming National Bank in Shickshinny, a member of the former Ascension Parish in Mocanaqua, and held memberships with the Catholic War Veterans, the Am-Vets, the Elks, the Moose and many other organizations. Besides his wife; brothers, Andrew and Joseph; and parents, he was preceded in death by his sister, Mary. He is survived by his son George and his wife, Nancy, and granddaughter, Rachel; son John and his wife, Ember, and grandson, John Jacob, and granddaughter, Molly; son Andrew; sisters, Anna Crepack and Sophie Gabana, all of Shickshinny; sisters, Helen Heller and Irene Kropiewnicki of Bloomsburg; as well as several nieces and nephews. Funeral services will be held at 9 a.m. Monday from the Mayo Funeral Home, 77 N. Main St., Shickshinny, followed by a Mass of Christian Burial at 10 a.m. in St. Martha’s Church, Holy Spirit Parish, Fairmount Springs, Pa., with his pastor, the Rev. Anthony Generose, as celebrant. Entombment will be in the family’s mausoleum at Mossville Cemetery, near his Red Hill farm in Fairmount Township. Military services will be conducted by American Legion Post 495 of Shickshinny. Visitation will be held from 2 to 5 p.m. Sunday at the funeral home. Condolences may be sent by visiting www.mayofh.com. More Obituaries, Page 8A

Cherry will be retried on homicide charge

W-B man’s first trial resulted in acquittal of charge and mistrial. By SHEENA DELAZIO sdelazio@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – A city man will again stand trial on homicide charges in the death of a 1-year-old after his first trial resulted in an acquittal of first-degree murder and a mistrial. Luzerne County Judge Tina Polachek Gartley scheduled a June 27 trial date for 37-year-old Lamont Cherry, charged with homicide in the May 2009 death of his girlfriend’s 1-year-old daughter, Zalayia McCloe. Cherry first stood trial in McCloe’s

death in January, and after a two-week trial, including jury selection, a mistrial was declared due to a juror’s misconduct after the jury had decided Cherry was not guilty of first-degree murder. Juror Gretchen Black, a seventhgrade teacher at Northwest Area School District and mother of four, had conducted research after the jury had gone home for the day about retinal detachment – a complication of shaken baby syndrome McCloe allegedly suffered before her death. An investigation was conducted and Black was not charged with any wrongdoing. Cherry will now face charges of thirddegree murder and involuntary man-

slaughter. Had Cherry been convicted of first-degree murder, he would have faced the death penalty or life in prison. William Ruzzo, Cherry’s attorney, said he does not expect the new trial to last more than four days. Polachek Gartley said there will be a pre-trial hearing on June 20 where she and attorneys will discuss questions asked to potential jurors as well as instructions to be given to jurors who are selected. The judge said she will concentrate specifically on if any juror has heard about the case and what they know about it. See CHERRY, Page 4A

PLAINS TWP. – Township police are trying to sort different stories about what happened in the Woodlands Inn & Resort parking lot, where two women were struck by a vehicle early Friday morning. It may come down to surveillance video of the incident that was reported just after 2 a.m., police Lt. Richard Lussi said. Police said two women, Maria Phillips, 18, of Wilkes-Barre, and Taysha Toro, 18, of Brooklyn, N.Y., were struck by a vehicle driven by Jose M. Oquendo Jr., 29, of Wilkes-Barre.

After the second crash, witnesses chased Oquendo through the parking lot. “It is an ongoing investigation,” Lussi said. “We’ve received conflicting stories about what happened.” Lussi said there were statements by witnesses that Oquendo was assaulted before he struck the two women with his vehicle. Oquendo suffered minor injuries and was transported to Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center. Lussi said Oquendo refused to submit to a blood-alcohol test. Under state law, drivers suspected of being intoxicated who refuse to submit to a blood test automatically lose their driver’s license for one year. “We didn’t charge him yet because we’re still investigating to determine what happened,” Lussi said. Police may still be able to determine Oquendo’s blood-alcohol level by executing a search warrant and subpoena for his medical records, which is commonly performed by law enforcement agencies. “We’ll know more when we review the surveillance tapes,” Lussi said.

The last postmark Residents mourn loss of post office

By MATT HUGHES mhughes@timesleader.com

ASHLEY – The U.S. Postal Service abandoned its Ashley Post Friday. After more than 150 years of operation, the U.S. Post Office at 31 N. Main St. in Ashley shut its doors for the final time at 5 p.m. Friday. “I’m going to miss it terrible,” Joan Thomas, of Manhattan Street, said at the office Friday. “It’s the only post office I ever knew.” The closure of the Ashley office, announced Feb. 14, was part of a 2009 review that examined 3,300 stations and branches in urban and suburban areas across the country, focusing on facilities in relative close proximity to one another. Customers are being referred to post offices on South Main Street, WilkesBarre, South Mountain Boulevard in Mountain Top or North River Street

“It’s not as busy as the main one downtown,” he said. “You don’t have to stand in line.” Louis McManus, of Wilkes-Barre Township, said “the location is actually excellent. It’s easy to access (and) a lot of people use it.” She said customers from Warrior Run, Sugar Notch and even parts of Nanticoke now have to travel farther and wait longer for postal services. The Ashley branch is about two miles from the Wilkes-Barre Post Office. Customers of the Ashley office said the office is also out of the flood plain, on a public bus route and offers speedier, more personal service. “This week I bought three books of stamps, just so I don’t have to go to Wilkes-Barre,” Thomas said.

in Plains Township. Many stopping by for one last visit to the Ashley office Friday said those offices can’t replace what the Ashley office offered. Gary Kratz, of Forty Fort, said he uses the Ashley Post Office when he is in the area because the smaller branch office is typically less-crowded than the main Wilkes-Barre branch. Kratz said he thinks the U.S. Post Service should keep the Ashley office. See STAMP, Page 4A

Ashley’s old post office could live on in history By BILL O’BOYLE boboyle@timesleader.com

ASHLEY – One man is working to preserve the Ashley Post Office’s interior for public display. Michael Chmiola, 28, wants to preserve the interior façade of the post office – a wood structure that will be dismantled and placed in storage unless Chmiola can convince the U.S. Postal Service to donate it so it can be placed on display. The Plymouth Historical Society has already told Chmiola that it has space to display the structure. “It’s lasted so long – maybe 158 years – and it will be gone soon,” Chmiola said. “This is an important part of our history and it should be put on display and not placed in storage or destroyed.” Ray Daiutolo, regional spokesperson for the U.S. Postal Service, said a main-

Luzerne County Senior Judge Richard Saxton has denied county Prothonotary Carolee Medico Olenginski’s legal action attempting to force the county to keep the prothonotary as an elected post when home rule is implemented in January. Medico Olenginski’s suit argued that the keeping of civil records falls under the judicial system, and putting those duties under an appointed county manager and elected council through home rule would violate the state constitution. The county had argued that there’s no case law or evidence that the prothonotary is part of the court branch and that the law allows home “The marule charters to resjority of tructure the office.

Prothonotary Solicitor Sam Stretton said he will appeal to Commonwealth Court because he does not believe the law intended the county’s executive branch to oversee the keeping of civil court records. “I disagree with the court’s rationale, and I think it creates a very dangerous precedent,” Stretton said. “I respect Judge Saxton, but this time I think he’s wrong, with all due respect.” The suit is filed against the three county commissioners as well as the 11-member Government Study Commission that drafted the charter, though the study commission has disbanded.

DALLAS TWP. – It affects twice as many people as breast cancer, but it doesn’t have a ribbon like the pink ones associated with breast cancer. If it did, the ribbon might be colored black and blue, the color of the bruises suffered by many of its victims. On Friday, nearly 300 people gathered in the Lemmond Theater at Misericordia University to learn more about it. “Understanding Relationship Violence: Perpetrators and Victims,” was the title of the lecture hosted by the Department of Psychology and Honors Program at the university. Wind Goodfriend, Ph.D., principal investigator for the Institute for the Prevention of Relationship Violence and an associate professor of psychology at Buena Vista University in Storm Lake, Iowa, presented the latest research on the psychology of per-

lead of an instructor and started researching romantic relationships. Studying how people in romantic relationships begin to lose objectivity and overlook the bad traits of their partner prompted her to start investigating relationships gone bad, she said.

Concert benefits Haiti quake victims By STEVEN FONDO Times Leader Correspondent

DALLAS TWP. – When a powerful 7.0 earthquake struck the impoverished island nation of Haiti in January 2010, it started a series of humanitarian aftershocks that rattled hearts and minds around the world. The reverberations were felt by two area students who decided to make a difference. Misericordia University seniors Sarah Terry and Devin Koslap heeded an inner call to service and boarded a plane for Haiti to join an international medical team

tasked with providing emergency services at a makeshift clinic. “No matter what I’d seen on TV, nothing could prepare me for the devastation I witnessed when I was in Haiti,” Koslap said. The two, who both major in occupational therapy, organized a benefit concert for Haitian earthquake relief at the Lemmond Theater in Misericordia’s Walsh Hall on Friday night, featuring music by local bands and entertainers. “With the recent earthquakes in Japan and New Zealand, it’s important that people don’t forget the Haitian victims,” Terry stated.

until we get in there and start talking the stuff out.” The wooden structure is old, but neither Chmiola nor the Postal Service can say when it was installed in the post office that opened in 1853 – 17 years before Ashley was incorporated as a borough. Georgetta Potoski, director of the Plymouth Historical Society, said her building has space to accommodate the structure. “We would have no problem with that,” she said. Chmiola is a member of the Plymouth and Luzerne County historical societies.

erated the Ashley Planes as a way of getting freight and passengers into and out of the Wyoming Valley dating back to 1840. In 1903 the postmaster at Ashley was paid a salary $1,100 while the postmaster at Wilkes-Barre was paid a salary of $3,200. At that time his salary was determined by the volume of mail and the cancellation of stamps at the particular post office, Chmiola said. According to Chmiola’s research, in the 1890s the postal service began the Rural Free Delivery (RFD) program, where mail was brought directly to people’s houses at no charge. Before this time people would have had to go to their local post office or general store to claim their mail. In 1904 Ashley along with Kingston and Dorranceton were granted free home delivery by the Postal Service, while the residents of Edwardsville, Luzerne, and Forty Fort were denied home delivery because the postal inspectors deemed the towns to have insufficient sidewalks, paved streets, street lights, along

with the lack of house numbering, Chmiola found.

“I just came in for old time’s sake,” she said. “Sixty-some years I used to come here.” Continued from Page 3A The woman, who declined to At least one woman came to give her name, said she used to came by the post office just to deliver the mail to St. Leo’s Church and school in Ashley on reminisce one final time.

the way to school as a child. “When we were kids we walked to school in the winter,” she said. “By the time we’d get down here, we would be freezing. It was pretty nice to come in the post office and warm up.”

Early beginnings Chmiola did some historical research and found that the post office was originally known as the Hendricksburg Post Office, established in 1853. One of the first postmasters was William Barkman. Chmiola said in 1870, the borough of Ashley was incorporated and in that year the post office’s name was changed to Ashley. The borough got its name from Herbert H. Ashley, who was one of the largest stock holders in the Central Railroad of New Jersey. The CNJ had a large railroad yard and shop complex in town. The railroad company also op-

Home delivery Chmiola said home delivery began in Ashley borough on Sept. 1, 1904. He said Ashley was served by a full post office with its own postmaster up until Sept. 21, 1904, when it was made a full sub-station of the Wilkes-Barre main post office. On Oct. 1, 1904, the new furnishings began to be delivered for the new Ashley Branch post office. Chmiola said in 2009 the Postal Service began reviewing branches and small post offices across the country and began to make decisions on which should be closed for cost-cutting efforts. Five weeks ago the Postal Service announced that the Ashley Branch would close. The last day of operation of the Ashley Post Office was Friday. “It will be the end of 158 years of service to the community when the doors are locked for the last time at 5 p.m.,” Chmiola said.

CHERRY Continued from Page 3A

Jury instructions are also important, Polachek Gartley said. Those instructions include what Polachek Gartley told the first Cherry trial jury numerous times a day – to stay away from media reports and the Internet and refrain from conducting their own research. Judges presiding over criminal jury trials routinely instruct jurors not to discuss the case outside the jury room or view media reports. Cherry testified at the January trial that he said he cared for McCloe for a number of months while living with her mother, Christa Smith, loving her, playing with her, changing her diaper and feeding her.

Twin astronauts reunited

stronaut Scott Kelly is back home reunited with his twin astronaut A brother, after a five-month space sta-

tion mission that was marred by the shooting of his congresswoman sisterin-law. Kelly hurried back to Houston on Thursday, just a day after landing in Kazakhstan aboard a Russian capsule. He was immediately reunited with identical twin Mark, who’s married to Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. Giffords is recuperating in Houston from a gunshot wound to the head. She was shot Jan. 8 while meeting with constituents in Tucson, Ariz. The tragedy occurred three months into Scott Kelly’s stay at the International Space Station. Scott Kelly, who served as station commander, said he called his brother as much as he could from orbit, but satellite coverage for phone calls was sporadic. That’s why he couldn’t wait to be reunited. “Just seeing him and talking to him and seeing how he’s doing,” he said in a NASA interview conducted within hours of his touchdown with two Russian crewmates.

MINNEAPOLIS — Most of the people who fell ill in a mass drug overdose that left one person dead have been released from hospitals, authorities said Friday.

A 19-yearold man from Coon Rapids died.

Police did not release names. The boy who hosted the party was apparently among those who fell ill. The drug, also known as "Europa," is a hallucinogen with no medical use. Authorities in Minnesota initially said the drug had been purchased legally. But on Friday, a spokesman for the Drug Enforcement Administration said the substance counts as illegal because it’s so chemically similar to other drugs that are banned. The house where the party was held is a beige, two-story home north of Minneapolis. A pair of trucks stood in the driveway late Thursday, but a tall fence with a “Beware of Wife” sign made it difficult to see much else. Although rare, there have been several

U.S. deaths from drugs similar to 2C-E since 2000. Carol Falkowski, a drug abuse strategy officer with the Minnesota Department of Human Services, said the drugs were more common about 10 years ago, when raves parties were popular. Falkowski said 2C-E is chemically similar to 2C-B, which is regulated as a controlled substance and therefore would not be legal to buy online. A federal law says “cousin drugs” similar to 2C-B can be considered illegal if they’re intended for consumption, but the law does not specifically regulate all similar versions. “It’s really a sad situation where so many people are involved in using a drug that can have such harmful effects,” Falkowski said.

MANAMA, BAHRAIN

Monument is demolished

Bahrain’s army on Friday demolished the 300-foot monument that had become a symbol of a monthlong Shiite uprising against the Sunni monarchy in the Gulf nation. The destruction of the six white curved beams topped with a huge cement pearl underlined the resolve of the Sunni regime to root out any dissent in the kingdom, now under emergency rule. The structure was built in Pearl Square as a monument to Bahrain’s history as a pearl-diving center but became associated with the protests that have roiled the majority Shiite nation. Security forces overran a protest camp at the square on Wednesday, setting off clashes that killed at least five people, including two policemen. At least 12 people have been killed in the month-long revolt. CAIRO, EGYPT

Forty million Egyptians get their first taste of a free vote in decades when a package of constitutional amendments sponsored by Egypt’s ruling military goes to a nationwide vote today. The referendum is the first major test of the country’s transition to democracy after a popular uprising overthrew President Hosni Mubarak’s authoritarian rule. They would open the elections to independent and opposition candidates and restore full judicial supervision of votes, a measure seen as key to preventing fraud.

N.H., R.I. and N.J. buck national trend by proposing cigarette tax cut. The Associated Press

CONCORD, N.H. — Bucking a national trend of raising cigarette taxes, New Hampshire, New Jersey and Rhode Island have considered reducing theirs, hoping to draw smokers from other states and increase revenue. Supporters argue reducing the tax by a dime would make New Hampshire more competitive with Maine, Vermont and Massachusetts, while opponents say that even if the state experienced higher sales as a result it still would lose millions of dollars in revenue. It’s very unusual for states to lower the tax, University of Illinois at Chicago economics professor Frank Chaloupka says. The increase in sales isn’t enough to offset the drop in state tax revenue, he says. Instead of lowering the tax, states have enacted 100 increases over the past decade, he says. "New Hampshire has been going in the same direction as the rest of the country, basically forever," Chaloupka said. New Hampshire raised its tax repeatedly since Democratic Gov. John Lynch took office in 2006, increasing it from 52 cents per pack in 2005 to $1.78 currently. That changed Thursday, when the state House passed a bill that would cut the rate 10 cents to $1.68 per pack in hopes of attracting smokers from surrounding states with higher taxes. Rhode Island’s bill would cut its tax by $1, to $2.46 per pack.

Judge stops Wis. union bargaining

BRADENTON, FLA.

An American missionary who was abruptly jailed without charges for five months in Haiti has returned to the United States. Danny Pye, a 29-year-old pastor who ran an orphanage in southern Haiti, arrived Thursday evening in central Florida, where his wife is about to give birth to their second child. Pye was released Tuesday. He was initially jailed in October over claims he took property from other missionaries, former associates with whom he split following a dispute last year. He was briefly released on Christmas Eve, then re-arrested and jailed on suspicion of having an invalid residency card.

Snipers kill 46 protesters in Yemen in mass demonstration The latest attack saw a new level of brutality in President Salah’s crackdown on dissent. By AHMED AL-HAJ and ZEINA KARAM Associated Press

SANAA, Yemen — A massive demonstration against Yemen’s government turned into a killing field Friday as snipers methodically fired down on protesters from rooftops and police made a wall of fire with tires and gasoline, blocking a key escape route. At least 46 people died, including some children, in an attack that marked a new level of brutality in President Ali Abdullah Saleh’s crackdown on dissent. Medical officials and witnesses said hundreds were wounded. The dramatic escalation in violence suggested Saleh was growing more fearful that the unprecedented street protests over the past month, set off by unrest across the Arab world, could unravel his 32-year grip on power in this volatile, impoverished and gun-saturated nation. The United States, which has long relied on Saleh for help

fighting terrorism, condemned the violence. The bloodshed, however, failed to dislodge protesters from a large traffic circle they have dubbed “Taghyir Square” — Arabic for “Change.” Hours after the shooting, thousands demanding Saleh’s ouster stood their ground, many of them hurling stones at security troops and braving live fire and tear gas. They stormed several buildings where the snipers had taken position, dragging out 10 people — including some the protesters claimed were paid thugs. They said the men would be handed over to judicial authorities. The protest in the capital, Sanaa, drew tens of thousands, the largest crowd yet in Yemen’s uprising. It began peacefully. A military helicopter flew low over the square just as protesters were arriving after the main Muslim prayer services of the week. A short while later, gunfire rang out from rooftops and houses, sending the crowd into a panic. Dozens were hit and crumpled to the ground. One man ran for help cradling a young boy shot in the head.

MADISON, Wis. — A Wisconsin judge issued a temporary restraining order Friday blocking the state’s new and contentious collective bargaining law from taking effect, raising the possibility that the Legislature may have to vote again to pass the bill. Lawmakers had passed Gov. Scott Walker’s measure last week, breaking a three-week stalemate Sumi caused by 14 Senate Democrats fleeing to Illinois. Demonstrations against the measure grew as large as 85,000 people. Dane County District Judge Maryann Sumi granted the order in response to a lawsuit filed by the district attorney alleging that Republican lawmakers violated the state’s open meetings law by hastily convening a special committee before the Senate passed the bill. Sumi said her ruling would not prevent the Legislature from reconvening the committee with proper notice and passing the bill again. Walker spokesman Cullen Werwie would not comment on whether the governor would push to call the Legislature back to pass the bill again, either in its current form or with any changes.

Obama to visit Latin America President will visit Brazil, Chile and El Salvador as a mission to create jobs. The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — A nuclear crisis in Japan, fighting in Libya, turmoil in the Mideast and the threat of a government shutdown at home. It’s a tough time for President Barack Obama to leave on a trip to Latin America. Over the next five days, Obama is to visit Brazil, Chile and El Salvador in what the White House casts as a mission to build job-creating opportunities for the United States and to address regional security concerns. The trip, considered by many

in the hemisphere as long overdue, is also an effort to solidify relationships that have slipped two years after ObaObama ma declared "a new chapter of engagement" with the region. In that time, China has expanded its economic footprint in the region and has surpassed the United States as Brazil’s top trade partner. Despite the competing, pressing demands on the president, the White House has been determined to proceed with the trip, emphasizing the potential of the burgeoning region for U.S. eco-

nomic growth. "In this increasingly interconnected and fiercely competitive world, our top priority has to be creating and sustaining new jobs and new opportunities for our people," Obama wrote in an opinion piece in USA Today. "We’ve got to keep competing for every new job, every new industry and every new market in the 21st century." Obama’s planned departure Friday was coming a day after the U.N. Security Council approved a no-fly zone over Libya and authorized "all necessary measures" to protect civilians from attacks by Moammar Gadhafi’s forces. In Latin America, Obama will meet with recently elected Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff.

Crashes of discount buses stir concern Recent years have seen a boom in buses whose main selling point is cost. The Associated Press

NEW YORK — The past year has been one of exhilarating expansion, and deadly setbacks, for the fleets of inexpensive buses plying the highways of the Northeast. Lured by cheap fares, convenient routes and in some cases free wireless Internet, customers queue up daily from curbside pickups in Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington. The industry is in the fifth year of a solid boom, thanks to a new breed of bus service that eschews terminals and thrives on low pric-

es Amtrak couldn’t hope to match. But a string of fatal crashes over six months also has prompted calls for tougher regulation. In September, four people died after a Megabus driver missed his exit for a depot in Syracuse, N.Y., and smashed into a low bridge on an unfamiliar parkway. Last Saturday, a bus swerved off Interstate 95 in New York City and was sliced in two by a pole, killing 15. On Monday, a bus drove off the New Jersey Turnpike and struck a bridge support, killing the driver and a passenger. The buses were all operated under different circumstances. One was owned by a big corporation with deep pockets. Another was a casino shuttle. The third was a tiny company serving mostly Chinese immigrants.

Still, all three crashes happened in the dark, and on any bus route drivers are susceptible to fatigue. Only a few years ago, the main competition to Greyhound, Trailways and Peter Pan for bus routes between big Northeastern cities was a handful of small, fiercely competitive companies that catered almost exclusively to recent Chinese immigrants, with an occasional backpacker or college student. The new services take everything people liked about the Chinatown buses — the cheap fares and express routes — and add corporate gloss. The buses are new, spacious and have Internet access usually not seen on Amtrak. By avoiding terminals, they save on user fees and space rental charges.

Marked-off area stirs Dallas Twp. concerns

The community recently saw a controversy over a gas compressor near the schools.

This area, marked off by stakes, is stirring talk in Dallas Township. Previously there was a controversy over a plan to build a gas compressor station near the Dallas School District campus. A pipeline easement was filed Thursday, and an engineering company is expected to present the township with a land development application on Monday, the zoning officer said. Some neighbors have expressed concern and discussed taking action.

DALLAS TWP. – A marked-off area along Sedlar Road in Dallas Township has spurred talk among concerned residents and parents in the Dallas School District, where the relocation of a proposed compressor station is still uncertain. A pipeline easement along Sedlar Road between property owned by John Metz and that of Williams Field Services Co., LLC, a subsidiary of Williams Gas Co., was agreed upon in August but was filed in Luzerne County Court Thursday. The area, which begins near the intersection of Hildebrandt and Sedlar roads, has been staked off and work should begin in July, according to court documents. Dallas Township Zoning Officer Leonard Kozick said Milnes engineering company has plans to

present a land development application Monday on behalf of Williams Gas Co. No applications have been received from Williams or Chief Gathering LLC as of Friday afternoon. A spokesperson from Milnes Companies, an engineering, general contracting, surveying and management firm in Tunkhannock, confirmed Williams Gas Co. is a client. Residents in the area have been questioning whether the reloca-

I have thought this for some time.” Jacobs said she and some neighbors have been curious as to what is happening just a mile down the road from their properties. “I have noticed some activity in that area,” said resident Jeff Zaykowski. “It’s still uncertain what’s going to happen.” Jim Sprypek, of Sedlar Road, said he was aware of the pipeline placement near his home but just

tion of the proposed Chief compressor station will be built somewhere along Sedlar Road. Officials from Chief Gathering could not be reached via telephone or e-mail Friday. “I pass through there three, four, five times a day,” said resident Kim Jacobs. “When I do, I cringe because I see the stakes and the trees – orange ribbons on stakes, blue and pink ribbons and blue and white ribbons on trees. It just looks like it is very heavily marked off, and if you actually fol-

heard Thursday about the potential for a compressor station in the area. “None of us are really sure,” he said. “I’ve heard from some that there is a very good possibility. The markings are more extensive than necessary for a pipeline.” He said he plans to gather with neighbors and rally for support against the possibility of a compressor station in the area. “We’re prepared to take some sort of action against it,” he said. “We’re astonished that they would even consider moving a facility like this to a residential area.” Chief announced last month plans to relocate a proposed compressor station from 1,300 feet away from the Dallas schools to a “more rural” area of the township. The company is pursuing plans to build a natural gas metering facility off of Hildebrandt Road, just over 1,000 feet from the Dallas School District campus.

Kingston Twp. spells out rules for gas, oil drillers in proposed law By SARAH HITE shite@timesleader.com

A draft gas and oil ordinance recently proposed in Kingston Township that makes natural gas companies liable for township road damage may be “a standard” for future municipal ordinances in the state, said Chairman James Reino Jr. The ordinance proposed at the supervisors’ March 9 meeting, limits natural gas and oil activities, including the construction of well pads, compressor stations and processing plants, to agricultural and mining zoning districts and must have a minimum site of 10

acres. The industry will be prohibited from building in residential, industrial and conservation districts. Reino said the supervisors, zoning board and planning commission all had a hand in the yearlong creation of the ordinance. He believes the drafted document does not tell companies how to conduct business, but it does ensure companies follow township regulations to minimize the effect on the community. “When we did our research, the

engineer. Companies would need to draft an excess maintenance agreement with the township to bond the roads. The draft ordinance also addresses the new storm water management requirements that must be adopted by municipalities. Reino said natural gas companies will need to follow those rules prior to subdivision and land development approvals. He said in compiling information for the ordinance, the creators were careful to abide by state and federal laws in order to avoid potential lawsuits from natural gas companies. “Most of the ordinances we’ve

biggest complaint seeing from towns was that most of the roads in the small municipalities aren’t capable of handling heavy equipment,” said Reino. The ordinance would require companies to provide plans for truck routes and to work with the township engineer to create a comprehensive report on the existing condition of the municipal roads. An engineer will create a written report supplemented with photographs and videotape to ensure the natural gas and oil companies are held liable for damages. Reino said a $3,000 application fee will cover the costs accrued by work completed by the township

seen have been challenged in court because they were trying to regulate outside of the state gas act,” said Reino. “We’ve been very careful to design this against those that have been challenged.” While Reino said he has only heard rumors of natural gas leases in the township, he said the point of this ordinance is to protect the infrastructure of the community while allowing the industry to safely conduct business in the township. The draft ordinance is currently available for public viewing at the municipal building on East Center Street in Shavertown.

WILKES-BARRE – Dave Palermo, a former member of the staff of defeated state Rep. Todd Eachus, is now working for state Rep. Eddie Day Pashinski. Palermo, of Butler Township and a member of the board of the Luzerne County Convention Center Authority, is working as a legislative assistant assigned to Pashinski by the House Democratic Caucus. Pashinski, D-Wilkes-Barre, said Palermo’s salary is $66,000 and he will report to Jack McNulty, Pashinski’s chief of staff. “This isn’t a new position,” Pashinski said. “It won’t cost taxpayers any more money.” Palermo said he has worked for the Democratic Caucus for 15 years, assigned to Eachus’ office. “Dave was transferred from Todd’s office to my local office to expand our services,” Pashinski said. “Dave has a wealth of knowledge and contacts that will benefit the constituents of the 121st District and I am fortunate to have access to his ability.” Pashinski said he intends to expand his office hours in Wilkes-Barre and expand the services provided. He said Palermo will handle a lot of grant writing to try to secure funding for the district. “We’ve talked about how he will coordinate larger efforts and events,” Pashinski said. “His full potential is extensive and we intend to use his talents in a variety of ways to benefit constituents.” Pashinski’s district office is located at 152 S. Pennsylvania Ave. in the city. Eachus, a Democrat, was the House Majority Leader before he lost his bid for re-election in November to state Rep. Tarah Toohil, R-Butler Township.

Scent may be of missing woman By JERRY LYNOTT jlynott@timesleader.com

PITTSTON – The search for a missing woman moved downstream Friday. Investigators said a dog trained to detect corpses hit upon a scent about a half mile from the bloody crime scene in a park along the Susquehanna River, where the woman’s purse, an eyeglass lens and dentures were found a week ago. Those items belonged to Lillian Calabro, 48, who did not return to her apartment in Gabriel House on March 11, investigators said. Gabriel House is a transitional housing residence for women that is located a few blocks from the crime scene in Riverfront Park below the Water Street Bridge.

COURT BRIEFS

The dog named Ebby, a border collie Sheltie mix, part of the volunteer Northeast Search and Rescue, found a scent in an area near the east bank of the river, said her handler Bruce Barton. “There’s something there that’s getting the dog’s interest,” he said. However the scent was not strong, possibly because of discharges of sewage and mine drainage into the river, he added. The high water and the fast current also affected the detection. A section of yellow police tape was wrapped around a tree trunk atop the bank to mark the location for searchers on land. On the river, a three-member team of the Germania Hose Co. and a single count of criminal mischief to Luzerne County Court. Exeter police withdrew two other arson counts against Bednarek.

have already heard positive feedback on the program from businesses and job seekers. In fact, several employers want to interview those who have completed the course, recognizing the value of the ESL Warehouse program and the topics covered during the program.” Several of those employers were represented at Friday’s ceremony: Mission Foods, Mountain Top; AEP, Mountain Top; Romark, Hazle Township; TJ Maxx, Pittston Township; and Assante Staffing, Hazleton. “We are definitely interested in talking to these people,” said Holly Miller of Romark Logistics. “We have openings in our warehouse associates and copacking departments.” Lauren Miles of Assante Staffing echoed Miller’s remarks, adding that her company will be interviewing for temporary positions. Amarilis Baez, one of the graduates, said she can’t wait to start

He said being able to speak English better will open more doors for him. “I guess everybody always wants to get a better job,” he said. The program was funded through a grant procured by the Luzerne/Schuylkill Workforce Investment Board, which is responsible for overseeing the programs administered through the PA CareerLink centers in Hazleton, Wilkes-Barre and Pottsville. Training for the ESL Warehouse program was provided by Luzerne County Community College and the Northeast PA Manufacturers and Employers Association. The ESL Warehouse course will be offered again starting next week and will run through the end of June. In the future, ESL courses geared toward other industries may be offered.

No data were available for the first two days of this year’s action. “We strive to be proactive as we offer services that benefit job seekers and employers alike,” said Lucyann Vierling, executive director of the Luzerne/Schuylkill Workforce Investment Board. “In our discussions with business and industry leaders, this was deemed to be a necessary program in the Hazleton area. We then identified occupation-specific knowledge and skills for warehouse associates, in addition to English-language skills, and incorporated those items into the course. A certain percentage of unemployed local residents are Hispanic and we want to be able to meet their employment needs through programs such as this.” Topics covered in the ESL Warehouse course included: principles and methods for moving, receiving, storing, labeling, handling and shipping goods; best practices for facility and personal safety; processes and procedures for taking physical and computerized stock counts and recording shortages, damage or defective product; data recording, communication, active listening and time management.

Munchak, Cordaro motions denied

By TERRIE MORGAN-BESECKER tmorgan@timesleader.com

SCRANTON – A federal judge on Friday denied motions filed by Lackawanna County Commissioner A.J. Munchak and former Commissioner Robert Cordaro that sought the dismissal of an indictment filed against them. U.S. District Judge A. Richard Caputo also denied Munchak’s motion that sought a separate trial and a joint motion that sought to have the case transferred to another venue due to pre-trial publicity. Caputo did grant several motions that sought the release of information from prosecutors. Munchak and Cordaro were initially indicted in March on numerous counts, including racketeering, honest services fraud, extortion and bribery. A revised indictment alleging the same conduct was filed in October. Prosecutors allege the men utilized their positions as county commissioners to extort money from numerous companies that did business with the county. Cordaro’s attorney, William Costopoulos, had sought to dismiss the indictment, arguing the defense had been significantly harmed by leaks of grand jury information to the media. He cited 12 articles that had appeared for less than one-tenth of 1 percent of the total hours American workers will put in over the three weeks of the tournament,” he added. The viewership does not even take into account the other ways employees watch the games: Calling off sick and staying home on the La-Z-Boy or heading out to a bar or tavern to watch the game with some cold brews and fries. Lucky’s Sporthouse in WilkesBarre Township has so many people stop by who chose that second route that the establishment even provided paper bags to customers to put over their head to alleviate any fear of being spotted by a co-worker or boss. General Manager Kathi Bankes relayed tale after tale about people coming in Friday morning and afternoon who obviously were supposed to be somewhere else.

One group of 20 came in and asked to be seated in the “back room,” which is usually only opened for overflow at busy times, hardly ever on a Friday afternoon. Another group of six came in and before they were seated made sure they had the paper bags in hand or on head. One man came in and proudly told those who would listen that he told his boss he was home sick and his wife he had jury duty. He even personalized his paper bag mask, writing: “I’m at jury duty baby!” on it. Not every place seems to be a drawing card for workers skipping out. Jennifer Hansen, the general manager at the TGI Fridays in Wilkes-Barre, said the bar area had a typical mid-day Friday crowd, though the ones who were there at 2:30 p.m. were watching the games on the bar’s multiple televisions.

in several local newspapers in 2009 and 2010. Caputo rejected that argument, noting that none of the news articles cited by the defense identified the sources of the information as being government agents. Caputo also rejected Munchak’s request to be tried separately from Cordaro. Munchak had argued his defense would be harmed if the men were tried together because Cordaro is charged with more counts than him. Caputo said the mere fact Cordaro is charged with more counts is not, by itself, grounds to hold separate trials. He noted the men are charged with engaging in a scheme and series of transactions, which supports the government’s position they should be tried together. Regarding the change of venue, Caputo said he believed that motion was premature as a jury questionnaire that will be sent out will allow the court to assess the impartiality of the jury pool. Caputo did grant motions that will require the government to turn over any evidence of other alleged crimes or wrongdoing committed by Cordaro and Munchak, which are not included in the indictment, but that it may present at trial.

STATE OPINION: NEW LAWSUIT

Use tobacco fund for health efforts

IDDLING WITH the state’s annual payout from the tobacco settlement funds has been Pennsylvania’s dirty little secret. Ed Rendell did it repeatedly since 2005, with support from the Legislature. Now it’s one of the few initiatives of the Rendell administration that’s been adopted by his successor. Gov. Tom Corbett wants to spend $220 million from the fund to supplement a new loan program intended to make it easier for companies to navigate the state’s bureaucracy and boost job creation. Red tape is bad and new jobs are good, that’s for sure; but is it wise to continue to raid a fund that is supposed to help ameliorate the negative health impact and added costs of smoking cigarettes? We don’t think so, and neither do the plaintiffs who filed a lawsuit to attempt to revive the state’s recently defunct adultBasic health insur-

ance program for the working poor. Three individuals were adultBasic subscribers until the program’s funding ended Feb. 28, and they’ve asked Commonwealth Court for a remedy. If Gov. Corbett wanted to, he could get behind the effort to restart adultBasic, providing a bridge for 41,000 working Pennsylvanians. The Legislature, too, has a remedy at its disposal. It could abide by the spirit of the Tobacco Settlement Act and ensure the funds are allocated directly to health-related initiatives instead of using the dollars to plug holes in the General Fund budget. Now, with the filing of the lawsuit, the judicial branch joins the executive and legislative in having an opportunity to solve this problem. There’s got to be a way to restore this low-price, highquality basic coverage plan. Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

New economic policies needed for nation to prosper HIGH unemployment makes it easy to forget that the U.S. economy is the world’s strongest. We have the most productive work force. Our combination of plentiful capital, entrepreneurial ability and flexible labor means that growth is our natural tendency. And for all of our perceived problems, the economy has been growing – just not robustly. To understand where we are headed, we need to keep in mind that the recession ended in June 2009. At that point, the government already had “bailed out’’ car companies, banks and insurance companies. Government control of private businesses has been one of Washington’s usual responses to recessions. That was the case with the takeovers of the railroads in the 1970s, the savings and loan associations in the 1980s and the bank bailouts of the 1990s. Once again, the federal government reacted too late to a deepening recession. Upon taking office, the Obama administration developed an $800 billion stimulus program designed to fight the recession, which ended just a few months later with less than $100 billion having been spent. Instead of declaring victory and shifting to a policy geared for the recovery, the administration kept on spending. The unfortunate result has been a ramp up of debt without the payoff of an economic recovery or job growth. In January, our new Republican-led Congress trumpeted a program of debt reduction, grounded in immediate spending cuts. Despite the congressional members’ view that the federal deficit is an urgent problem, they are proposing a scant $60 billion in

MAIL BAG

TIMOTHY KEARNEY cuts from a total spending package of $3.7 trillion. If debt reduction is the GOP’s goal, their first move was a baby step – at best. Taken together, it is easy to see why economic policy in the United States – fiscal pump priming versus austerity – remains in limbo. The fundamental problem is that neither approach is based on the principle that growth and prosperity ultimately come from incentives to work better, to work longer and to innovate. Controlling deficits and spending is important for the long term, but not for the immediate future. The real, long-term solution to most of our country’s economic maladies is higher economic growth, which will generate jobs and reduce the national deficit. That’s the lesson of the late 1990s when major tax cuts on capital and other pro-growth policies generated an economic boom and a budget surplus. Unfortunately, even the bipartisan policies coming out of Washington today are not focusing on improving long-term incentives. The two major tax law changes approved late last year – maintaining income tax rates at 2010 levels for two years and reducing payroll taxes – are helpful, but they will not stimulate the economy as much as some people believe. The temporary reduction in payroll taxes is similar to other short-term tax cuts that already have been used by Presidents George W. Bush and Obama. History shows that consumers make purchases based on

their “permanent” incomes, not on temporary money flow. That is, consumers are smart enough to base their decisions on income they expect over the long haul. Temporary tax cuts historically have lead consumers to save and to pay down debt. With consumers already reducing debt levels, that scenario is likely to be repeated, which is good for the long term but not for the here and now. It’s also concerning that there has been no policy response to the sharp rise in oil prices due to the turmoil in the Middle East. In the recent past, higher energy prices have contributed to recessions in 1973-75, 1980 and 2008-09. In fact, the peak of $147 per barrel of oil in 2008 contributed to the deepest recession since 1981-82. Higher oil prices act like a tax hike, reducing disposable income. We risk another economic downturn if oil prices remain at today’s inflated levels. Our national economy is at a crossroads. It is time for our elected leaders to reform the nation’s economic policies. A bi-partisan effort to lower tax rates, offer fewer exemptions, offset higher oil prices, end corporate welfare and reform entitlements can create a business environment that fosters economic growth that benefits everyone.

CityVest Executive Director Alex Rogers took issue with Handman’s assertions and said the nonprofit relied on project manager Lincoln Property Co.’s expert opinion on what work should be completed with the limited funds allocated for the project.

Development of a mothball plan was one of the primary reasons CityVest hired Handman’s firm at the start of the Sterling preservation project, Handman said. Mothballing involves roof repairs and window sealing to stop moisture from penetrating the structure and ventilation to keep air flowing inside so trapped moisture doesn’t rot the interior.

A military official said the young man was rescued Saturday from the rubble in Kesennuma, a city in one of the most devastated areas. The official says the man was transferred to a nearby hospital, but he is too weak to talk. Kyodo, the Japanese news agency, says the man was in his 20s. The rescue is the latest and one of the few after the disaster, as the power of the tsunami, triggered by the magnitude-9 earthquake, likely pulled many people out to sea.

installation of a new roof membrane and repairs to the gutters, copper cornices and atrium skylight, he said. The roof of the hotel is shaped like a square with a hole in the middle. At the center is a lower-level atrium topped with a covered skylight at the thirdfloor level of the seven-story structure, he said. The roof slopes inward, draining into massive gutters on the edges of the center opening, Handman said. The chosen window option – installing new glass in all the broken windows – would have cost $39,600 at the time, Handman said. An alternative – covering all window openings with plywood – would have cost around $587,000 because of the equipment required to access the windows from the exterior, he said. A basic ventilation system would have cost $80,630 in addition to a $6,000-a-year operating expense, he said. Handman said CityVest declined to act on his recommendations, and his company was not retained after CityVest hired Lincoln Property, Philadelphia, in September 2003. The company was paid a total $520,100 as project manager. Handman said he submitted a revised roof repair proposal in November 2003 but received no response. CityVest later autho-

The comments Friday reflected expectations by IAEA officials and independent experts that radiation levels — which are relatively low outside of the immediate vicinity of the Japanese plant — would dissipate so strongly by the time it reached the U.S. coastline that it would pose no health risk whatsoever to residents. A presentation Friday showed radiation levels peaking in Tokyo and other cities in the first days of the disaster at levels officials said were well below risk points before tapering off. “The rates in Tokyo and other cities ... remain far from levels which require action, in other words they are not dangerous to human health,” said Andrew. While set up to monitor atmospheric nuclear testing, the CTBTO’s worldwide network of stations can detect earthquakes, tsunamis and fallout from nuclear accidents such as the disaster on Japan’s northeastern coast that was set off by a massive earthquake and a devastating tsunami a week ago. Since then, emergency crews have

No response from CityVest Handman said he again contacted CityVest in September 2004 to request completion of the mothballing that he had identified as a need in 2003 but received no response. But Rogers said CityVest gave Lincoln a copy of Handman’s report, and Lincoln recommended roof patching with continued monitoring. A local company was paid $21,624 for roof repairs, and another company later received $15,000 for additional roof work, records show. “Lincoln’s professional advice was to patch the roof and continue to monitor the roof on an ongoing basis,” Rogers said. Rogers said he’s become frustrated that people are critiquing CityVest when nobody else expressed a willingness to tackle the challenging Sterling project. Many don’t realize that CityVest successfully restored two rundown single family homes and a deteriorated former Wilkes University dorm on South Franklin Street near the intersection of Ross Street in Wilkes-Barre, he said. “Those properties are now occupied and back on the tax rolls. That project has been a

tremendous benefit to that historic neighborhood,” Rogers said. CityVest also acquired an abandoned and decaying building on North Main Street that was later torn down. A new building in its place includes King’s College housing and a coffee shop, he said. Rogers said the soon-to-be-released report on the Sterling will show that numerous developers rejected the property because of costly structural repairs – independent of the roof – that would be required to adapt the building for reuse. “We tried to exhaust every opportunity to give that building every chance of being redeveloped,” Rogers said. Handman, who has been working on the Luzerne County Courthouse restoration project, said he expects the upcoming CityVest report will say the deterioration of the project has gone “beyond the point of no return.” He doesn’t believe the low ceilings are an impediment in developing the property, as some have stated, because interior walls may be moved. The exterior walls are made of brick and stone, he said. “You just gut everything down to the structure, stabilize the structure and rebuild,” Handman said. “I look forward to seeing the report.”

There should be no doubt about the Libyan leader’s intentions “because he has made them clear,” Obama said. “Just yesterday, speaking of the city of Benghazi, a city of roughly 700,000, he threatened ‘we will have no mercy and no pity.’ No mercy on his own citizens.” Former U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum criticized Obama’s policy toward Libya as "indecisive" and said if current trends continue the United States’ role in world affairs will to "simply be the military for the United Nations." Santorum criticized the president Thursday night before a Fayette County Republican dinner in Uniontown, which is about 40 milessouthofPittsburgh,thePittsburgh Post-Gazette reported Friday.

with the 1979 Three Mile Island accident. The International Nuclear Event Scale defines a Level 4 incident as having local consequences and a Level 5 as having wider consequences. Nuclear experts have been saying for days that Japan was underplaying the severity of the nuclear crisis.

"He’s been on the side of tyrants when the tyrants were our enemies, and he’s been on the side of the revolutionaries when the authoritarian regime was our friend," Santorum said. Santorum has yet to formally declare a 2012 run for the presidency, but has been making frequent political appearances in key states that appear to be the groundwork for one. Santorum lost his re-election bid to remain Pennsylvania’s junior Senate member in 2006, and now lives and votes in Virginia. He said he’ll decide whether to run for the presidency sometime this spring. Parts of eastern Libya, where the once-confident rebels this week found their hold slipping, erupted into celebration at the passage of the U.N. resolution on Libya. But the timing and consequences of any international military action remained unclear. Misrata, Libya’s third-largest city and the last held by rebels in the west, came under sustained assault well after the cease-fire announcement, according to rebels and a doctor there. The doctor, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he feared repri-

sals, said Gadhafi’s snipers were on rooftops and his forces were searching homes for rebels. “The shelling is continuing, and they are using flashlights to perform surgery. We don’t have anesthetic to put our patients down,” said the doctor, who counted 25 deaths since the morning. The rebels still hold eastern Libya, which has most of the country’s oil reserves. Oil prices slid after the cease-fire announcement, plunging about $2.50 in the first15 minutesofNewYorktrading.They were down slightly for the week, settling at $101.07 per barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Mustafa Gheriani, a spokesman for the rebels, said the opposition is considering calling Gadhafi’s bluff by holding new protests in Tripoli and elsewhere in Gadhafi’s western strongholds to see if his forces open fire. “The idea is that when he cannot bomb civilians, the whole world will see that Libya does not want him,” Gheriani said. “I believe his troops in Tripoli will leave him. We want to make our revolution a peaceful one again, just surround his compound and make him leave.”

PIAA BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT

Royals blitzed in fourth

Lancaster Catholic beats Holy Redeemer with late run By JOHN ERZAR jerzar@timesleader.com

OREFIELD — As quickly as Holy Redeemer erased one deficit Friday night, another began forming on the horizon. And this time, the Royals had no time left to react. Lancaster Catholic went on a 15-2 run after Redeemer tied the game early in the fourth quarter to eliminate the Royals from the PIAA Class 3A boys basketball playoffs with a 56-41 victory in a quarterfinal game at Parkland High School. The District 3 champion Crusaders improved to 29-1 and will play District 12 and

defending state champion Neumann-Goretti (25-4) in LANCASTER the semifinals on Tuesday. CATHOLIC District 2 champ Redeemer ended its season at 24-5. “The second half of the game, we came out a little HOLY flat,” said Redeemer coach REDEEMER Mark Belenski, whose team trailed 25-24 at halftime. “I talked about second shots, and they came right out and got three shots at the basket. “Right there, I scratched my head and said, ‘It’s going to be a long half.’ They took it to us. They wanted it more than we did and played

a little more aggressive defensively.” The loss marked the third consecutive season the District 3 champion ousted the District 2 champion in the quarterfinals. But after battling back from a 35-27 deficit midway through the third quarter, it appeared Redeemer had an excellent shot at breaking the drought. Pete Alexis, the Royals’ 6-foot-11 center, grabbed an errant three-point attempt and scored the fourth quarter’s first basket to tie the score 39-39. But then came six consecutive Redeemer misses that allowed the CruSee ROYALS, Page 3B

Simply because for once at states, she wasn’t last. Edwards finished her preliminary run of the girls Class 3A 200yard freestyle in 2:01.58 – slower than her District 2 championship-winning time but a bit faster than the 2:01.72 of Archbishop Carroll’s Christine Loughery. That meant Edwards, who’s always been seeded at the very back of the 32-swimmer fields she’s competed in during state competition, moved up a slot after four years of trying to place 31st. “That’s what I said, I finally beat someone,” Edwards said gleefully. Edwards averted last place Friday morning with one of those late surges she’s become known for throughout her illustrious swimming career at Hazleton Area, passing Loughery in the second half of the last lap to find a higher placement in the 200 freestyle event. “Bria always gives it everything she has,” Hazleton Area coach Michelle Yakubowski said. “If I see someone next to me, it just kicks in,” said Edwards, explaining her penchant for finding See SWIMMING, Page 3B

Alexis posts big night in final game for Royals The Penn State-bound senior finished with 24 points and nearly had a triple-double.

By DAVE KONOPKI dkonopki@timesleader.com

OREFIELD — The constant running up and down the court, and playing four quarters with two or three defenders constantly draped on him wasn’t the reason Pete Alexis took a deep breath near the locker room after the game. He was trying to control his emotions. The Holy Redeemer senior scored a team-high 24 points, grabbed 13 rebounds and blocked nine shots, but it wasn’t enough for the Royals to avoid a 60-51 loss to Lancaster Catholic in the quarterfinals of the PIAA Class 3A boys basketball playoffs. “I love these guys,” said the 6foot-11 Alexis. “We’re family. We’re always going to be family.” The Penn State-bound Alexis

concluded his outstanding high school career Friday night at Parkland High School. His personal numbers were impressive, but the final numbers on the scoreboard weren’t what he wanted. And the Lancaster Catholic defense had plenty to do with it. “Their defense is tenacious,” Alexis said. “They were on us for all four quarters. They’re in your face the entire game.” Putting two and three defenders on Alexis each time up the floor was exactly the game plan for the Crusaders, said coach Joey Klazas. “We knew (Alexis) had a very strong inside game,” Klazas said. “We put three guys on him to make sure he had pressure all night. We were also trying to make the entry passes as difficult as possible.” Alexis scored 10 points and blocked seven shots in the first two quarters. Despite the blocked shots, the undersized Crusaders – whose tallest player is 6-4 – didn’t back down from

the Redeemer center. “They kept coming at us,” Alexis said. “They never stopped.” Alexis picked up his third foul in the third quarter, but never came out of the game. He continued his strong play in the second half, scoring eight of his 14 second-half points after grabbing an offensive rebound. But the Royals struggled to consistently put the ball in the hands of their big man. Still, Redeemer coach Mark Belenski praised the efforts of his players. “They played hard and they played well,” he said. “Kudos to our kids, especially our seniors. I’ve learned more from them this season than they did from me. They’re all great kids and they’re going to be successful in life.’’ Including Alexis during the next four seasons at Penn State. “Pete had a great high school career,” Belenski said. “But his best days are ahead of him.” Alexis, who finished his high school career with approximate-

saders to turn up the tempo and eventually take over with a 50-41 lead with just over two minutes to play. “We’ve seen it all year, all the guard pressure and we’ve handled it,” Redeemer guard Austin Carr said. “Just not tonight, for some reason we couldn’t handle it. A team out of the area, we don’t really know them. Films don’t teach you their defense and how it’s going to be in real life.” Lancaster Catholic knew what to expect from Alexis, and the Penn State recruit turned in one of his finest performances in his final time in a Redeemer uniform. Alexis scored a game-high 24 points, shooting 11-of-14 from the field, grabbed 13 rebounds and nearly pulled off a triple-double by making nine blocks. Yet he too had to deal with the Crusaders swarming to him when he touched the ball. “Their defense was tenacious,” Alexis said. “They were all over us for all four quarters. We usually don’t see that back at home. It was four quarters of straight man-to-man or zone and always in your face.” Compounding Lancaster Catholic’s fourth-quarter surge was poor shooting by Redeemer. Alexis hit both of his fourth-quarter shots, but the rest of the Royals finished 0-of-16 from the field. That included an 0-for-11 effort from beyond the arc in an attempt to rally quickly. “We talked at halftime and said they made some big shots,” Lancaster Catholic coach Joey Klazas said, “but if we continue the pressure I thought we could be more aggressive and wear them down a little bit. I think we did. They were tired at the end of the game.” The game started well for Redeemer as forward Steve Ruch knocked down a pair of three-

Quincy Diggs led Akron with 11 points. The Zips shot only 35.9 percent and 7-foot center Zeke Marshall was just 2-for-13 from the floor.

AHL

Penguins coach not focused on record

The team is four victories away from a season record and can clinch a playoff berth tonight. By TOM VENESKY tvenesky@timesleader.com

Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins coach John Hynes doesn’t think about the fact that his team can clinch a playoff spot tonight with a win over the Worcester Sharks. He doesn’t really care that the Penguins are on the verge of winning the East Division, laying claim to the best record in the AHL and setting a team record for wins in a season. The 2005-06 squad posted 51 wins. Heading into tonight’s game at Mohegan Sun Arena, this season’s U P N E X T team has 48 with 13 games re- Worcester Sharks at W-B/ maining. But Hynes Scranton Penguins doesn’t really WHEN: 7:05 give such acco- p.m. tonight lades much WHERE: Mohethought. He’s fo- gan Sun Arena, cused on some- Wilkes-Barre Township thing else. “Our goal is to be the best team we can be. I know it sounds cliché, but in reality it’s tough to have these (other) goals because you don’t know what the circumstances are going to be,” Hynes said. “To me, it’s more about finding ways to win games. Everything else follows along with that.” So it’s no surprise that Hynes is more interested to see how his team responds tonight at home on the heels of a four-game road trip through western Canada that earned the Penguins seven points. A good starting point would be for the Penguins to pick up where they left off on Wednesday’s comefrom-behind 4-1 win over Manitoba. “We just want to make sure we get back to how we ended against Manitoba,” Hynes said. “We have to be the team that plays the best when the puck drops, and the players did a good job of doing that this week.” The Penguins had the day off on Friday after going 3-0-0-1 during the road trip and because of the extensive travel returning home from Wednesday night’s game at Manitoba. Hynes felt the time away from the ice would help his players when it comes time to get back on it tonight. “It should help mentally. I’m glad it’s a nice day out. They can come back re-energized,” he said.

pointer and Scott hit a jumper from the baseline, was fouled and converted a three-point play for a 55-44 lead. In the first half, Hansbrough started a 10-0 spurt with a jumper and capped it with a 3-pointer that gave the Irish a 16-6 lead against the slow-starting Zips.

wanted,” Grego said. “I felt strong in the water, it’s just like I couldn’t go anywhere. (But) I was trying my best. Everything just came out of me.” On the boys side, it took all the energy Tunkhannock swimmers had in reserve just to bump up a few spots. David Novak moved up one spot from where he was seeded to 30th by finishing the 200 freestyle in 1:48.63. Ben Spencer jumped from 29th to finish 27th in the 200 IM with a time of 2:00.10. And their Tigers teammate, Matt Kupchunas, swam the 100 butterfly in 53.98 seconds to remain where he was seeded, at

31st. “It means a lot,” Novak said. “The district competition is not as really high as the states. I wanted to go faster than I did at districts. I didn’t quite get there, but it was good.” That sense of satisfaction might not have shown in the standings, but to the Tigers, it was real. They moved up this season to Class 3A from Class 2A, where times are generally slower. “They’re a lot deeper with the speed,” said Novak, who competed in the PIAA 500 freestyle in Class 2A last season. “It’s real deep. They’re all just fast. Nothing you can really do different,

NOTES On the injury front, Hynes said Joe Vitale is day-to-day and likely won’t play tonight. Defensemen Joey Mormina and Carl Sneep will be out this weekend and goaltender John Curry, who left Wednesday’s contest after the first period, should be back by Monday. Hynes said Curry’s situation is “real minor” and he needs rest more than anything. Patrick Killeen was called up to fill in while Curry is out. just swim your best.” To highlight his point, two PIAA Class 3A individual records were broken in Friday morning’s preliminaries. “They swam very well,” Tunkhannock coach Tim Mislevy said of his boys. “I’m very pleased with their times and the way they looked in the water. It’s a little different (class). They stepped up to the challenge.” Even when the challenge was too great to get them near the medal stand. “It was decent,” Spencer said of his IM. “Not my best, but good. It makes me feel good that I’m a part of it.”

Buckeyes roll in opener The Associated Press

CLEVELAND — Close to home, Ohio State lived up to its No. 1 billing. William Buford scored 18 points, freshman Jared Sullinger added 11 before getting some extended rest, and Ohio State looked every inch the part of a No. 1 overall seed in rolling to a 75-46 win over Texas-San Antonio in the second round of the NCAA tournament Friday. Playing a two-hour drive from their Columbus campus, the Buckeyes (33-2) were cheered on by more than 15,000 fans, who made Quicken Loans Arena feel just like home. Ohio State built a 16-point halftime lead, ballooned it to 38 in the second half and were never threatened by the No. 16 seed Roadrunners (20-14). The blowout allowed Ohio State coach Thad Matta to rest his starters for Sunday’s East region matchup with George Mason, a 61-57 winner over Villanova. Devin Gibson scored 24 to lead UTSA, which beat Alabama State on Wednesday night for the right to face the powerful Buckeyes,

North Carolina 102, Long Island University 87 CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Tyler Zeller scored 32 points, John Henson added 28, and North Carolina used its hulking size to overcame sloppiness in its return to the NCAA tournament in a victory over scrappy Long Island University. Harrison Barnes added 24 points and 16 rebounds for the second-seeded Tar Heels (27-7) who eventually wore down the 15th-seeded Blackbirds (27-6). The 2009 NCAA champions, relegated to the NIT last season, advanced to the third round of the East Regional. Julian Boyd scored 18 points, C.J. Garner added 16 and Jamal Olasewere had 15 for LIU, which faded after rallying to tie with under 5 minutes left in the first half as its nation-best 13-game

Marquette 66, Xavier 55 CLEVELAND — Darius Johnson-Odum scored 19 points, Jimmy Butler had 15 and Marquette squashed Xavier’s bid for a fourth straight round of 16 appearance. The win was the first in the NCAA tournament for the 11thseeded Golden Eagles (21-14) in two years. Marquette will play Indiana State or Syracuse on Sunday in the East region. The sixth-seeded Musketeers (24-8) and Michigan State were the only two programs to reach the round of 16 each of the last three tournaments. Xavier’s Tu Holloway, the Atlantic 10 player of the year, missed his first seven shots and scored only five points.

They were once ranked as high as No. 5 but failed to get out of the first weekend of the NCAA tournament for the second straight year. Hancock scored 18 points, and Morrison had 10 points and 11 rebounds for George Mason, which won its opening tournament game for the first time since its Final Four run in 2006. The eighth-seeded Patriots

trailed by 10 in the first half only to inch their way back. Isaiah Tate popped George Mason’s first 3 of the second half with 1:57 left to make it 54-51, and the Wildcats crumbled from the freethrow line.

Morrison took advantage, dunking in a miss with 55 seconds left for George Mason’s first lead since early in the game. After Corey Fisher drew a foul on a 3-point attempt and made all of them for a 57-56 lead, Hancock followed with the biggest shot of his career.

Pistons 99, Knicks 95 AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — Chris Wilcox threw down a one-handed dunk off a missed shot with 53 seconds left, and Detroit rallied from an 11-point, fourth-quarter deficit to beat New York. After Wilcox’s dunk gave Detroit a two-point lead, Carmelo Anthony drove past Tayshaun Prince, but Wilcox was there defensively to force a missed shot. After Will Bynum missed on the Pistons’ next possession, Wilcox helped keep the ball alive, and Detroit came up with it. Bynum made two free throws with 11 seconds left for the final margin.

Pacers 115, Bulls 108, OT INDIANAPOLIS — Tyler Hansbrough had 29 points and 12 rebounds to help Indiana beat Chicago in overtime, snapping the Bulls’ eight-game winning streak.

He scored 19 points in the fourth quarter and made three free throws with 1.2 seconds left to force overtime. Luol Deng added 21 points for the Bulls.

Spurs 97, Mavericks 91 DALLAS — Tony Parker scored 33 points, Manu Ginobili had 25 and Tim Duncan added 22, lifting San Antonio over Dallas. Playing for the first time since losing to Miami by 30 on Monday night, the Spurs looked hungry and rested from the start, jumping ahead by 18 early in the second quarter.

Devils’ playoff hopes dwindling after defeat The Associated Press

NEWARK, N.J. — Rookie Michal Neuvirth stopped 33 shots for his fourth shutout and the Washington Capitals put another dagger in the New Jersey Devils’ playoff hopes with a 3-0 victory on Friday night. Defenseman Jeff Schultz broke an 81-game goal drought and Alex Ovechkin made a pair of fantastic passes to set up goals by goals by Mike Knuble as the Capitals bounced back from a loss, despite recording only 12 shots. The win gave the Capitals 94 points, tying them for first place in the Eastern Conference with idle Philadelphia. The loss was the second in as many nights for New Jersey and left it six points behind idle Buffalo in the race for the eighth and final playoff berth in the East with 11 games to play. Rangers 6, Canadiens 3 NEW YORK — Ryan Callahan, Marian Gaborik and Brian Boyle scored 1:07 apart in the Rangers’ highest-scoring first period in more than 11 years, and New York held on for a key victory.

The Rangers and Canadiens, fighting for playoff positioning with about three weeks left in the season, staged a postseasonlike show at Madison Square Garden. New York, in seventh place, moved within five points of sixth-place Montreal with 10 games left. More importantly, the Rangers are four points ahead of Buffalo and Carolina. Henrik Lundqvist held off the Canadiens late and finished with 22 saves to reach 30 wins for the sixth straight season. P.K. Subban, Brian Gionta and James Wisniewski scored for Montreal. Hurricanes 3, Islanders 2, OT RALEIGH, N.C. — Joni Pitkanen scored at 3:58 of overtime to give Carolina a win. Erik Cole set up the extra period for the Hurricanes with a tying goal at 15:23 of the third. Jeff Skinner scored his 25th goal and had an assist on Pitkanen’s winner for Carolina. The win tied the Hurricanes for eighth place in the Eastern Conference with Buffalo. The Sabres have two games in hand.

With rally, Wilkes wins Freedom debut The Times Leader staff

The Wilkes baseball team scored four runs in the eighth inning to complete a 7-5 comeback win over Eastern on Friday in the Freedom Conference opener for both teams. Down 3-0 entering the fifth, Scott Skammer hit a two-run single and scored on an error to tie the game. Then in the eighth, Matt Ruch added an RBI double and Angus Neary capped off the Colonels’ scoring with a three-run homer that proved to be the difference. Al Clocker struck out five while giving up three earned runs in seven innings to pick up the win for Wilkes (6-4, 1-0).

Facing No. 16 Salisbury in the second game, the Lady Monarchs were no-hit by Erika Brittingham, who struck out 11.

WORLD CUP SKIING

Vonn vs. Riesch for overall crown The Associated Press

LENZERHEIDE, Switzerland — Lindsey Vonn and Maria Riesch predicted their five-month fight for the World Cup overall title would come down to the last race. It has. The forecast today is for sunshine and high drama, with the two-way race for the giant crystal globe trophy to be decided by two giant slalom runs down a steep Swiss hillside. Vonn is looking to extend her era of domination, trailing by just three points in her bid for a fourth straight title. Riesch, a distant runner-up the past two years, is chasing an elusive first overall crown.

Riesch did just enough to take the lead Friday, finishing fourth while Vonn was 13th in a tense slalom won by Tina Maze of Slovenia. Yet the German’s threepoint edge on her American friend can be lost in hundredths of a second, with a race victory worth 100 points. “I know I have a chance to be in there. I’ll fight and see what happens,” said Vonn, who led by 27 points following Wednesday’s downhill. It’s a perfect scenario for Alpine skiing — two 26-yearold marketable racers, who are best friends and biggest rivals, slugging it out to the end. “My chances are 50-50,” Riesch said.

De La Rosa, the Dodgers’ minor league player of the year last season, has not allowed a run in his last eight innings spanning three outings. Giants starter Jeff Suppan, competing for the long relief spot in the bullpen, allowed two runs and seven hits over four innings.

Castillo released from team

he New York Mets released second baseman Luis Castillo on Friday T despite still owing him $6 million, cutting ties with a three-time All-Star linked to one of the most painful plays in team history. Mets fans never forgave him for dropping a potential game-ending popup by Alex Rodriguez in 2009, a misplay that let the New York Yankees score two runs to win in the bottom of the ninth. Castillo was booed — a rarity in spring training — this week after he was slow to cover first base during an exhibition game. Luis Hernandez, Daniel Murphy, Justin Turner and Brad Emaus will compete for the starting job at second base.

HOUSTON ASTROS

Myers faces Phils in opener

JUPITER, Fla. — Brett Myers will start the Houston Astros’ season opener in Philadelphia against his former team. Myers is in his second season with the Astros. Roy Oswalt, who’s now in Philadelphia, started Houston’s last eight opening days. Astros manager Brad Mills says he’s “thrilled” with Myers as the opening day starter, adding “there’s nobody else we would want there.” Myers went 14-8 with a 3.14 ERA in 2010, his first year with the Astros after pitching the previous eight years for the Phillies. The 30-year-old is 0-1 with a 9.00 ERA in four starts this spring. NEW YORK YANKEES

Gardner leaves with bruise

New York left fielder Brett Gardner left Friday’s game against Toronto after being thrown out trying to score from second on a third-inning single. Gardner fouled a ball off his right shin, bruising it, in Thursday night’s game, and was not running at full speed in the game with the Blue Jays. “The clutch was slipping,” Gardner said jokingly. “I’m good. I’m not worried about it. Just a little swollen. Just a little bruise.” Gardner used a shin pad in Friday’s game for added protection. Also, injured New York Yankees’ pitchers Joba Chamberlain and Pedro Feliciano are scheduled to throw off a bullpen mound on Saturday. LOS ANGELES DODGERS

Blake could end up on DL

Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Casey Blake might start the season on the disabled list after hurting his back. Blake was hurt while trying to beat out a bunt. He was 1 for 13 (.077) this spring. Blake was scheduled to play catch earlier Friday. Dodgers manager Don Mattingly says if Blake does end up on the disabled list he may move Juan Uribe to third base to start the season. MINOR LEAGUE BASEBALL

Five hit with 50-game bans

Five minor league pitchers in the Dominican Summer League have been suspended 50 games each after testing positive for performance-enhancing drugs. Eliseo Batista from the Yankees organization, Marcos Coca and Daniel DelaCruz from the Philadelphia system, Ruben Mejia from the San Diego system and Jose Williams of the Cincinnati organization were penalized Friday. The suspensions of all five players will start at the opening of the 2011 Dominican Summer League season.

DUNEDIN, Fla. — A.J. Burnett was hit by a line drive in the first inning and hurt by his own wildness and catcher Russell Martin’s sloppy play in the New York Yankees’ 6-5 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday. Burnett was struck on the upper part of his right buttock by Juan Rivera’s liner but remained in the game. He then had the same control problems that plagued him last season, throwing two wild pitches while giving up four runs and five hits in four innings.

Toronto’s Brandon Morrow worked five shutout innings, giving up three hits and striking out six. Jose Molina homered in the third inning for the Blue Jays. Mets 3, Braves 0 PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. — David Wright hit a two-run homer and an RBI single in the New York Mets’ victory over the Atlanta Braves. Wright, who was batting just .200 entering the game, drove in a run on a base hit in the fourth inning, then hit a long homer over the left field wall in the sixth inning. It was his first home run of the spring. Braves starting pitcher Jair Jurrjens gave up three runs — two earned — on five hits with two strikeouts and no walks in six innings. He was perfect through the first three innings, but Jose Reyes reached on an error in the fourth. Oliver Perez, contending for a lefty specialist role in the Mets’ bullpen, walked one but retired the side in the sixth. Cardinals 10, Nationals 4 VIERA, Fla. — Jamie Garcia pitched four effective innings, drove in two runs and scored on a wild pitch for St. Louis.

Nationals starter Jordan Zimmermann was hit hard, giving up six runs and eight hits in four innings. He walked two and threw two wild pitches. Phillies 3, Pirates 2 CLEARWATER, Fla. — Pirates right-hander Brad Lincoln was struck in his pitching arm by Jimmy Rollins’ line drive and forced to leave early with a bruise. Lincoln, a big part of the Pirates’ future, was hit in the third inning and quickly tracked down the ball near the first-base line. Rollins appeared startled by the accident and slowed down, and Lincoln tapped the Phillies

‘Talkin’ Baseball’ composer to perform at Cooperstown Cashman’s song will be a part of this summer’s Hall of Fame induction weekend. The Associated Press

As a minor league pitcher, Dennis Minogue hardly had Hall of Fame talent. Once he changed his tune — and name — and forever linked Willie, Mickey and the Duke, he earned his spot in Cooperstown. The Hall will honor “Talkin’ Baseball” composer and singer Terry Cashman this summer as part of induction weekend, 30 years after his song became a ballpark favorite. Funny thing, the popular refrain almost included another player. “I kept trying to fit Joe DiMaggio into the song and it wasn’t working,” Cashman told The Associated Press this week. Once he dropped Joe D, the

most familiar verse flowed rather easily. “It just came into my head that way,” Cashman said. “I sat down and wrote the whole thing in 20 minutes.” Cashman said he was inspired to write the song by a picture of all four great center fielders walking across the field at Shea Stadium during an Old-Timers’ Day. He liked the photo so much, in fact, he bought the rights to use it. Cashman, 69, also was stirred by the memory of debates he had on the street corners of New York in the 1950s over which of the three future Hall of Famers was best. Being a Giants fan, Mays was his guy. Cashman said, however, that’s not why Willie’s name came first in the song — it simply sounded better that way. Mays is the only one still alive from that famed trio. Mantle died more than 15 years ago and

Snider passed away last month, with “Talkin’ Baseball” often playing in memory for the Duke of Flatbush. “And Willie will soon be 80,” Cashman said. Cashman will perform his

song once again during ceremonies on July 23 that hail a writer and broadcaster, as well as executive Roland Hemond for lifetime achievement. The next day, Roberto Alomar, Bert Blyleven and Pat Gillick will be inducted.

“Just the idea I’m in the baseball Hall of Fame is like heaven for me,” he said by phone from his home in the Bronx. His original sheet music for the song, incidentally, is already part of the Cooperstown collection. “’Talkin’ Baseball’ symbolizes the spirit of New York baseball in the 1950s and ’60s and the timeless love for the national pastime for every baseball fan whose enjoyed Terry’s ballad over the years,” Hall of Fame President Jeff Idelson said Friday. “We are pleased to honor Terry and his classic tribute to the game and its great players.” Last year, the Hall recognized John Fogerty and “Centerfield” on its 25th anniversary, marking the first time a musician or a song had been singled out for tribute during the festivities. Cashman was among the visitors in town that day and heard the performance.

Edwards earns pole at Bristol Roush Fenway continues its strong run, claiming the top two spots for Sunday’s race. The Associated Press

BRISTOL, Tenn. — Roush Fenway Racing continued its strong qualifying runs Friday by sweeping the pole at Bristol Motor Speedway. Carl Edwards turned a lap of 128.014 mph in a Ford to knock teammate Greg Biffle from the top starting spot for Sunday’s race. Biffle’s lap of 127.622 mph was good enough for second. It gave a RFR driver the pole for the third consecutive race. Edwards won the pole in Phoenix and Matt Kenseth won the pole at Las Vegas, where Edwards picked up his first win of the season. Regan Smith qualified a careerbest third in a Chevrolet, and his 6.25 qualifying average this season is best in the Sprint Cup Series. Paul Menard was fourth in a Chevy, and David Ragan was fifth to put three Roush drivers in the top five. “This is fun; the cars have just been great,” Edwards said. “Greg motivated me. I didn’t think anybody was going to be able to go that fast. I thought that the track had slowed down a lot more than that, so I was out there driving my heart out.” It was Edwards’ ninth career pole, second of the season and fifth in the last 19 races. For Biffle, it was a nice start to the weekend after his disastrous run at Las Vegas two weeks ago. Although he thought his car was just a tick off from Edwards’ racewinner, a series of problems in the pits led to a 28th-place finish. He’s 32nd in the points — danger-

That’s hard to do when you’ve got a really, really fast car.” Defending race winner Jimmie Johnson qualified sixth and was followed by Hendrick Motorsports teammate Jeff Gordon.

Crews work on cars after practice on Friday for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race, set for Sunday at Bristol Motor Speedway.

Matt Kenseth, the fourth Roush driver, qualified 11th. Kurt Busch, a five-time Bristol winner, was the highest qualifying Dodge driver at 20th. Meanwhile, Goodyear was plagued all day Friday with tire issues when the ones at Bristol failed to lay enough rubber on the track surface. Typically, as drivers run more laps, rubber grounds into the surface and alleviates excessive wear. But it didn’t happen after a full day of track activity Friday, even after the sun came out and the track surface got hotter. Drivers

were only able to go about 30 laps before their right-side tires wore down to the cords. So Goodyear called for about 1,300 new tires to be shipped from North Carolina to Bristol in time for the Nationwide Series race today. Nationwide teams will qualify this morning on the tires already at the track, then switch to the new ones in the race during an early competition caution. Goodyear officials said they were like everyone else in “wondering why” the tires were wearing down so quickly.

MARCO ISLAND, Fla. — NFL players and their leadership tried to make a few things perfectly clear Friday: They consider the letter Commissioner Roger Goodell sent them a day earlier an attempt to create “dissension.” They refute the league’s contention that the union walked away from negotiations. They dispute the owners’ depiction of their last-minute offer made last Friday. They say it wasn’t close to acceptable because it would have made salaries a fixed cost and eliminated

the NFL’s version of last week’s proposal and told players: “I hope you will encourage your union to return to the bargaining table and conclude a new collective bargaining agreement.” Players were upset by that line, particularly the reference to “your union” — the NFLPA renounced its status as a union and says it is now a trade association, which permits the court actions

Clark, his team’s main representative, called it “probably the worst deal in sports history,” echoing words used by NFLPA chief executive DeMaurice Smith in a radio appearance. Smith said he does not consider Goodell’s letter — e-mailed to all active players Thursday — an attempt to engage in good-faith negotiations. The league, he said, could attempt to restart talks by writing, instead, to lawyers representing the players now that the union has dissolved. “Let’s not kid ourselves.

PALM HARBOR, Fla. — Sergio Garcia is not thinking about winning, which is becoming tougher to do with each bogey-free round at the Transitions Championship. Garrett Willis and Chris Couch were tied for the lead when another gorgeous day at Innisbrook ended. Willis had a 4-under 67 in the still of the morning to put his name atop the leaderboard for the second straight year — this time on a Friday, not a Thursday. Couch had a 64 in the afternoon as the breeze began to stir, making a par from the trees on the 18th to tie for the lead. Even so, it was tough to ignore the name one stroke behind them. Garcia is among the most talented players in golf, but his enthusiasm waned so much last year that he took a 10-week break. He hadn’t played in America in seven months. Passion no longer seems to be an issue. The 31-year-old Spaniard looked moderately disgusted when birdie putts turned away. He produced a fist pump normally saved for a Sunday when he holed a chip for birdie from behind the 13th green. About the only thing that went wrong in his round of 66 was when he felt something on the back of his cap as he walked off the 14th tee early in his round. Turns out it was a bee that stung him on his middle finger, although he got the

stinger out and all was well. A par save on the final hole felt even better. “Just keep trying to do the right things and see what we finish,” he said. “I’m not worried about winning. I just want to keep building confidence into my head, and these rounds obviously help. If we go out there tomorrow and shoot another round – beautiful. If not, that’s fine. I’ve just got to make sure I keep building up.” Willis and Couch were at 9-under 133, one shot clear of Garcia and Webb Simpson, who had a 67 in the afternoon. Paul Casey, who led after the first round, had to settle for a 71 and was two shots behind along with Justin Rose (65) and Gary Woodland (68). Innisbrook is one of the toughest tracks in Florida, although it was vulnerable in such ideal weather. It’s not so much the number of players who produced low scores, rather the high scores that were absent. As a result, the cut of 1-under 141 was the lowest in tournament history. Going into the weekend, only eight shots separate first from worst, a rarity on the Tour. Willis is making his own kind of progress. A year ago, Willis opened with a 65 to take the first-round lead, then followed that with a 77 and missed the 54-hole cut. He followed his opening 66 with a solid 67 Friday to finish his round atop the leaderboard. “It’s a lot cooler to lead after the second round than it is the first round,” Willis said.

Goods that endure

Durable goods orders

Companies hold off on buying expensive equipment when their budgets are hurting. The Commerce Department’s February report on orders for durable goods – products that last at least three years – will show how confident companies are about spending. The reading for January rose because of aircraft orders, which tend to fluctuate. Without transportation, orders had their biggest drop in two years.

Housing is still a dark blot on a brightening economic picture. Two reports will tell how many newly built and previously occupied homes were sold in February. Analysts expect mixed news: They forecast that more families bought new homes in January, but fewer bought existing homes. High rates of unemployment and difficulty getting loans have dampened homeownership.

The Commerce Department makes its final report on fourth-quarter gross domestic product on Friday. In its second report a month ago, the government said spending cuts by state and local governments held back economic growth. It revised its estimate of how much GDP grew during the quarter to an annual rate of 2.8 percent. The first estimate was 3.2 percent. Economists are looking for the government to again revise the number, this time, upward.

RICHMOND, Va. — Removing menthol cigarettes from the market would benefit public health because the minty flavoring has led to an increase in smokers and makes quitting harder, a Food and Drug Administration advisory panel said Friday. The agency’s Tobacco Products Scientific Advisory Committee stopped short of recommending an outright ban. The FDA should consider other factors, the advisers said, including that a ban could increase counterfeit and smuggled cigarettes. Panels like the tobacco committee advise the FDA on scientific issues. The

agency doesn’t have to follow their recommendations but often does. Many analysts believe it won’t ban menthol, which about 19 million Americans smoke. “We just think this is too much of a political hot potato,” said Ira Loss, an analyst with Washington Analysis who has covered the agency for three decades. Lawrence Deyton, director of the FDA’s Center for Tobacco Products, signaled a ban is not a sure thing. While there is no timeline for the agency to act, the FDA intends to provide a progress report in about 90 days. “I need to be very clear. ... The report

does not set FDA policy, does not set FDA actions,” Deyton said. “Receipt of the final report will not have direct, immediate effect on the availability of menthol products.” While the panel said menthol smokers are not likely to be at a higher risk of disease or exposed to a greater number of toxins, menthol cigarettes make it more likely for certain groups like youth and African Americans to experiment with smoking and make it harder for them to quit. The panel said more research is needed and said the federal agency should develop a program to monitor marketing of menthol cigarettes. It also sug-

INFLATION HURTS The Associated Press

ASHINGTON — Inflation spooked the nation in the early 1980s. It surged and kept rising until it topped 13 percent. These days, inflation is much lower. Yet to many Americans, it feels worse now. And for a good reason: Their income has been even flatter than inflation. Back in the ’80’s, the money people made typically more than made up for high inflation. In 1981, banks would pay nearly 16 percent on a six-month CD. And workers typically got pay raises to match their higher living costs. No more. Over the 12 months that ended in February, consumer prices increased just 2.1 percent. Yet wages for many people have risen even less — if they’re not actually frozen.

Social Security recipients have gone two straight years with no increase in benefits. Money market rates? You need a magnifying glass to find them. That’s why even moderate inflation hurts more now. And it’s why if food and gas prices lift inflation even slightly above current rates, consumer spending could weaken and slow the economy. “It feels far more painful now than in the ’80s,” says Judy Bates, who lives

near Birmingham, Ala. “Money in the bank was growing like crazy because interest rates were high. My husband had a union job at a steel company and was getting cost-of-living raises and working overtime galore.” Bates, 58, makes her living writing and speaking about how people can stretch their dollars. Her husband, 61, is retired. They’ve paid off their mortgage and have no car payments. But they’re facing higher prices for food, gas, utilities, insurance and health care, while fetching measly returns on their savings. “You want to weep,” Bates says. Consumer inflation did pick up in February, rising 0.5 percent, because of costlier food and gas. Still, looked at over the past 12 months, price increases have remained low. Problem is, these days any inflation tends to hurt. Not that everyone has been squeezed the same. It depends on personal circumstances. Some families with low expenses or generous pay increases have been little affected.

LOS ANGELES — The Apple iPad 2 has been selling out in stores across the United States since its launch Friday, and the scarcity of the device will probably continue as Japan continues to recover from the earthquake and tsunami that struck the nation March 11 and as it tries to rein in an escalating nuclear crisis. Apple pushed the delivery time for those ordering the iPad 2 online to four to five weeks Thursday, the same day that the research firm IHS iSuppli issued a report that said five key components of the tablet made in Japan will be in short supply because of factory shutdowns. “The aftermath of the Japanese earthquake may cause logistical disruptions and supply shortages in Apple Inc.’s iPad 2, which employs several components manufactured in the disaster-stricken country — including a hard-to-replace electronic compass, the battery and possibly the advanced technology glass in the display,” IHS iSuppli said in a statement. Apple officials were unavailable to comment on the report. IHS iSuppli said it has identified five parts in the iPad 2 supplied by Japanese companies: NAND flash drives from Toshiba; memory manufactured by Elpida; electronic compasses from AKM Semiconductor; glass used in the tablet’s touch screen likely from Asahi Glass Co.; and batteries from Apple factories in Japan. “While some of these suppliers reported that their facilities were undamaged, delivery of components from all of these companies is likely to be impacted at least to some degree by logistical issues now plaguing most Japanese industries in the quake zone,” IHS iSuppli said.

Netflix cuts a deal to add a TV series to its Internet video streaming service The Associated Press

LOS GATOS, Calif. — Netflix Inc.’s Internet video streaming service will be the only place to watch an upcoming TV series with a high-powered pedigree that includes Academy Award-winning actor Kevin Spacey and the director of an Oscar-nominated film about Facebook. The deal announced Friday illustrates Netflix’s growing clout in Hollywood as it mines revenue from its 20 million sub-

scribers to create new home entertainment options. In this instance, Netflix will be showing a series that won’t have a scheduled broadcast time. Episodes could be released in bunches instead of just one per week. “It’s a show people will be able to discover over time,” Ted Sarandos, Netflix’s chief content officer, said in a Friday interview. “It doesn’t have to happen over the first week, first month or even the first year of the show.”

Netflix didn’t disclose how much it is paying Media Rights Capital, the studio behind “House of Cards.” The agreement covers 26 hour-long episodes, an usually large commitment for a series that hasn’t even entered production. The series will debut on Netflix late next year. The high-profile names connected to “House of Cards” made it a hot commodity. Besides featuring Spacey in his first regular role in a TV series,

the pilot will be directed by David Fincher, a respected filmmaker nominated for a best-director Oscar for “The Social Network,” a movie based on the legal battle pitting Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg against his former friends and classmates at Harvard University. “House of Cards” is based on a novel about British politics during the 20-year regime of former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.

This will mark the first time that Netflix owns the exclusive rights to an episodic series, an advantage that has worked well for pay-TV channels such as Time Warner Inc.’s HBO and CBS Inc.’s Showtime. HBO, which has approximately 28 million U.S. subscribers, has steadfastly refused to license critically acclaimed series such as “The Sopranos” and “The Wire” to Netflix’s streaming service because of their intensifying rivalry.

NATIONAL FORECAST: A pair of low pressure systems will move inland, while another storm system sits off the West Coast. The result will be showers and mountain snow from California to the Northwest and into the northern Rockies. There will be a few scattered showers and thunderstorms over the nation’s midsection as well.

You can tell by stepping outside this morning that winter has made a comeback with colder temperatures. Under cloudy skies this morning, there will be scattered ﬂurries with a bite in the wind, but very dry air aloft will soon mix in to allow for clearing and some sunshine this afternoon. Just keep in mind that today's high will be 25 degrees colder than it was on Friday. Under clear skies tonight check out the 'Super Moon'. It's full at the same time the moon is closest to the earth. This happens only once every 18 years. It's actually a tiny bit bigger and a little brighter than normal. Enjoy the view. - Tom Clark

tmospheric decor is characterized by soft textures, transparency, iridescence, opacity — or even all of those at once. It can create a mood of quietude and retreat. And it is, some designers say, popular now as an antidote to an increasingly jarring and sped-up world.

“We’re seeking balance and understanding, and we want to unclutter our minds,” says design consultant Laura Guido-Clark of Berkeley, Calif. Despite atmospheric decor’s quiet, it has “an inherent energy,” she says. Many of these elements were on the runways of Monique Lhuillier and Chanel this spring, and in furnishings, they offer a counterpoint to the season’s alter ego, an

exuberant jumble trunk of hot hues and wild colors. The colors in atmospherics tend to be lightweight and sheer — as Guido-Clark notes, “veiled like mist or air.” Yet there can be elements of strength and purity. We see a lot of dreamy hues — soft whites, blush, silver — but also hefty colors — graphite, charcoal. See SERENITY, Page 3C

Setting a slower pace for domestic life By MARY BETH BRECKENRIDGE Akron Beacon Journal

A slow home, on the other hand, is reasonably sized and carefully designed. It might have an entry where family members can easily take off their boots, stash their keys and store their backpacks. It might have a living space that encourages people to talk or read, not just watch TV or surf the ’net. It’s energy-efficient, filled with natural light and designed for easy flow among rooms and outside access. It doesn’t have to be fancy or expensive, he said, just easy to live in. He and his partners design those kinds ofhousesthroughtheirfirm,Housebrand, and they encourage others to do the same through the Slow Home Studio (http:// www.slowhomestudio.com). Brown and partner Matthew North also have written abookonthesubject,“What’sWrongWith This House? Fast Houses, Slow Homes and How to Tell the Difference.”

John Brown believes a home should ease stress, not add to it. Brown founded the slow-home movement, a philosophy that emphasizes livabilityandsustainability.It’saboutbuilding a home that works for the occupants, not one meant to impress. The concept was inspired by the slowfood movement, with its focus on healthful,sustainablewaysofproducingandpreparing food, explained Brown, an architect, real-estate broker and architecture professor in Calgary, Canada. “You can think of the typical cookie-cutter house as being like fast food” — often supersized and designed to satisfy our craving for beauty, he said. It’s a house that’sdesignedtoseduceusintobuyingby feeding our fantasies of a more glamorous life, he said, not one that’s necessarily easy to live in or easy on the environment. See SLOWER, Page 5C

The amount of natural light, the ability to maintain natural flow, access to the outside and energy-efficiency are crucial factors in a slow home.

ll this talk of a potential government shutdown didn’t really hit home until a friend put our merry little band of travelers on notice that it could keep her away from an upcoming happy-birthday-everyone trip we’ve planned for months. After all, a shutdown isn’t really what it sounds like, particularly if you’re one of the “lucky” “essential” employees of the federal government, in which case not only do you have to come to work, you have to come without pay. (Boo hiss.) Now I don’t mean to make light of serious business as I say my biggest concern as I read the news on this matter was whether we really could end up with an empty seat on our oceanfront balcony or too much leftover frozen concoction in our blenders. We had some hope, in that our friend apparently straddles a gray area between essential and non-essential. It’s possible, she said, she could sneak out of Dodge as the latter. You’re not essential; you’re free to go, as it were. Not so good for an ego maybe, but great for vacation plans. Anyway, at such a time as this, good old government hopes, Americans are watching and learning, cleaning their own houses, so to speak. I made an effort anyway and indeed decided to re-examine my own life, at least from the perspective of what is essential vs. non-essential. Of course, I started inside the house. (OK, so I get like this with pretty much every approach of spring.) When you can see the grass again, you also can see all the flaws anew, and you tend to get restless and agitated. My still-new concrete driveway, for one example, is showing its first signs of “spalling,” which is a bad, bad word associated with rock salt, which I never used and never intend to, so how did THAT happen? Strike one for a springy mood. Time to depart this vale of tears, hide inside and pretend I saw none of this, I decided. But ha, said the universe. Watch what I can do: i.e., make all your indoor technology fail at once. Have I offended you, universe? I didn’t wait for an answer but instead hastily summoned all the lazy reprobates to a mandatory meeting in the “Capitol,” i.e., house, of which I am president and CEO. In attendance were the cell phone, the land phone, the laptop, the desktop and even the microwave. Listen up, my impassioned speech began, you “people” are essential employees of this household, and I expect you to show up for work. Now is NOT the time to go lethargic rogue. Would you like to see my tax bill? In response, the cell phone powered down unaided for the 40th time in a week, the desktop computer groaned and fizzled, and the right row of microwave touch keys decided to join the left in early retirement. Now I can only cook in increments of time that contain 2s, 5s and 8s. Does anyone else get this much respect? A careful household manager probably would have waited things out, or at least tried to live without, in a very Thoreau sort of way. Computers and mobile phones, after all? Not essential. Right? I apparently am not careful. More like exasperated and defeated, so I threw in the towel early and conceded to the quitters. You’re all replaceable, I barked, and replace I did, starting with two of the priciest “employees” at once: the cell and the computer. “Geez, good day at the track?” my brother asked. As if. Unless he meant my recent $100 bonus win at a Night at the Races. More like one bad day of caution-tothe-wind abandon, I said. But I prefer rationalization. You can just say I averted a total domestic shutdown.

IN BRIEF

Water helps with wallpaper

COOL DIGS

On the shelf

For many of us, decorating can be daunting. Stephen Saint-Onge seeks to take the scariness out of the process in his new book, “No Place Like Home: Tips & Techniques for Real Family-Friendly Home Design.” Saint-Onge is familiar to many through his television appearances and his House Calls With Stephen Saint-Onge column in Better Homes and Gardens magazine. In his book, he inspires his readers with rooms that are warm, approachable and functional and helps them achieve similar results by giving them processes to follow and room makeovers to emulate. The book is heavy on the how-to. Saint-Onge provides guidance on everything from weekend makeovers to major renovations, pointing out specific elements in each room that readers might incorporate in their own homes. He sprinkles the book with tips and ideas and helps readers get started on projects by posing questions to help them define their needs and wants. “No Place Like Home” is due out next week from Wiley Publishing and will sell for $19.99 in softcover. •••

Other features of the suite include a separate shower, dual vani-

Q&A Q: Where can you buy individual sheets? I have three top sheets but no contour sheets to go with them. All I ever see anymore are sheet sets. A: Flat or fitted sheets packaged individually are less common than they used to be. Target, Bed Bath & Beyond and larger Macy’s stores sell some sheets individually, and you might be able to find a limited selection at off-price retailers such as T.J. Maxx, HomeGoods, Marshalls and Gabriel Bros. Mail-order sources are another option. The Company Store, L.L. Bean and Lands’ End all sell individual sheets. I also found them at a number of online retailers, including Amazon.com, HardToFindSheets.com, Boscovs.com, Shopbedding.com and CSNStores.com. •••

What’s new

A Hudson company is using engineered plastic to make Adirondack chairs that are virtually maintenance-free. The Rocky River Rondack Co. says its chairs are designed for both durability and comfort. The plastic mimics the look of natural wood but never needs to be sanded, stained, painted or sealed. The chairs can stay outdoors yearround, although they fold to make them easy to store. They recline in three positions and have a curved back for comfort. The chairs come in white or toffee and sell for $369 plus shipping on the company’s website, http:// www.rondackchairs.com.

ALAN J. HEAVENS task, I prefer sizing the walls. The sizing can be easily washed from the surface for painting. Painting contractor David Magargee, of the venerable Magargee Bros. in Germantown also applies a coat of clear sizing to the walls before paper. First thing in the morning, the workers put down protection for the flooring. Then, using a hand pump, they squirt water all over the walls — yes, just water, no particular temperature. “Then they wait, and after awhile someone gets up and tests the wall, and if the paper doesn’t come off easily, they spray it again and wait until it does,” Magargee said. They are so good at this that the paper, glue, and sizing all come off, and they don’t have to wash the walls, he said. Removing wallpaper from plaster walls is never a problem, he said. When the paper has layers of paint on top of it, it is scored with a broad knife to let the water seep underneath for easy removal. If you want to paint over it, and because there is no interior oilbased paint anymore, use an acrylic paint. Zinsser has products that seal the paper before you paint — one of those is called Shieldz universal wall-covering primer. Make sure you spackle the seams before you paint, he said. Otherwise, they can open up and ruin a paint job easily. For customers with really bad walls, Magargee uses something like an artist’s canvas as a substratum for painting. The canvas is applied to the wall to hide most if not all of the imperfections before his crew begins to paint. The canvas comes in12-,16-, and 20-ounce weights, although he said the 20-ounce material “is getting harder to find.” Questions? E-mail Alan J.

Q: Our bedroom was rebuilt by the previous homeowner after a fire with what I’m guessing is an old style of wallboard; wallpaper was then put directly over that wallboard. I’ve been trying to remove the wallpaper, but it is completely an uphill battle. Where the seams were spackled, the wallpaper comes off easily when dampened with water. But on most of the rest of the space, the paper might as well be glued to the thin layers of cardboard-like wallboard. Once the paper is saturated and scraping is attempted, trying to get it off often tears or gouges the surface of the wallboard. Dry scraping works only on the spackled areas. I’ve used a commercial product to help get the paper off more easily, but it doesn’t make a difference in this case. The process is so tedious and the results so poor that I can only stand to do a little at a time before I get frustrated and disgusted. The reason for doing it myself rather than trying to hire someone is to save money, so I don’t want to call someone in. I also don’t want to drywall the entire room, which is 19 by 19 feet, but I’m not getting a paintable surface. Will the whole room require a thin layer of joint compound to be lightly sanded to smooth out all of the rips and gouges on the paper surface before I can prime and paint the room? A: I have been in your situation several times, and I agree that removing wallpaper from a surface that wasn’t sized is a job and a half. Wallpaper sizing is a liquid coating applied to a surface — in effect, you are priming the wall with it. Sizing a wall before papering not only helps the paper better adhere to the surface, it facilitates easier removal with fewer nicks and gouges. Although many paint manufacturers contend that the latest generation of primers for new drywall accomplishes the same

Textures include voile, moire silk, slubbed wool, crystal, hammered metals, blown glass, ceramic, even translucent concrete. Mud Australia, a top ceramics studio, creates beautifully curvy vessels and plates in soft, chalky hues with names like “ocean,” “milk,” “powder,” “dust.” Japanese designer Tokujin Yoshioka creates conceptual furniture out of interesting materials. He’s designed a line of thick, clear polycarbonate furniture for Kartell called The Invisibles. And Paper Cloud, created for Moroso, is a white, fluffy sectional sofa. Describing his interest in light and wind, Yoshioka says, “I’m fascinated by elements that stir and stimulate the imagination.” Italian designer Diego Grandi, who along with Manola Bossi created the voluptuously elegant gold-glazed Oppiacei Table, says, “I call myself a ‘slow addict.’ I listen to silence with pleasure.” Trove’s dreamlike wallpapers include Ciel, with a cloud motif; an oceanic Sargasso; and Nekkar and Askella, both with a cascade of feathery petals. At Design Within Reach, find One & Co.’s 47 Table, a chunk of timber given a shimmery coat of silver. Or gravitate toward the Toto Cube Lamp, created by a French wine tank manufacturer during its quiet season; the lamp is large enough to use as a seat or table, and is lit from inside with a warm glow.

Z Gallerie has a spherical lamp made of hundreds of oyster-shell tiles; its iridescence is both organic and jewel-like. Find here also the Cloud vase, a milky swirl of cirrus glass. Roubini Rugs has Tony Duquette’s Malachite rug, an eddy of emerald and ink like a sliver of the mineral itself. And Campion Platt’s Mariner rug collection, inspired by travels through the Turks & Caicos, uses the soothing natural patterns of waves and the landscape. Art Addiction offers several large format prints that would create instant atmosphere, and provide a launch point for other furnishings. A series of dandelions, about to catch the wind. A collection of X-rayed sea urchins and shells, elemental and artistic. And a dramatic group of horse images in which the animals have been photographed, all sinewy muscles and whipping manes, on a blustery, misty day. There’s something of the dream world about them.

According to the National Fire Protection Association, four out of five fire-related deaths among civilians occur in the home. It makes sense to be prepared. Smoke alarms can alert you to a fire, and sprinklers can extinguish a blaze. Beyond that, fire extinguishers are a must, but even that might not be sufficient. If it’s small enough and you think you can put it out, “always make sure everyone is out of the house and at a safe distance,” says Heather Paul of State Farm Insurance. Most home fires occur in the kitchen; unattended cooking is the leading cause. For any kitchen fire, the first thing to do is turn off the heat. For a grease fire or any pan fire on the stove, place a metal lid or plate over the fire to cut off the oxygen supply. (And keep the lid on; lifting it resupplies oxygen and contents will burst back into flame). A fire extinguisher can handle a grease fire (don’t use water; that only makes the fire spread). If the fire is contained to the pot, bank the spray from the extinguisher off the back of the stove or the bottom of the microwave if it’s above the stove. If the oil or grease has already spilled and the top of the oven is on fire, sweep the spray of the extinguisher at the base of the fire. For a toaster fire, unplug the toaster and use an extinguisher. If a fire is in the oven or microwave, leave the door closed until the fire burns out. Fire extinguishers are not created equal. Some are rated for fires involving paper, trash and cloth; some for fires involving flammable liquids; still others for electric fires. Some are multipurpose, the best choice for homes. Not sure what to buy? Go to your local fire department or the NFPA website (nfpa.org). Have an extinguisher on each floor of the home, but at least have one in the kitchen. Familiarize yourself and your family with how the extinguisher works. (In general: Pull the pin, aim at the base of the fire, squeeze the trigger evenly, spray in a back-and-forth motion.) Check it annually to be sure it’s filled and working properly. The best place to have it looked over is at a fire station, Paul says.

Architect Hallie Bowie has long been guided by a similar philosophy in designing additions and renovations through her New Leaf Home Design in Ohio. But before learning of the slow-home movement recently, she never had a name for it, she said. Modern ideas merge Bowie sees the movement as a marriage between green building and the Not So Big House idea, championed by architect Sarah Susanka in her design books. At its heart, a slow home is really about good design, she said. “It seems to me the slow home has a real values kind of focus,” Bowie said. Its design grows from the occupants’ emphasis on the quality of time they spend with family and friends, not on the quantity of their possessions or their desire to impress people, she said. A slow home takes different forms for different people. A family who wants less emphasis on television might create a viewing area separate from the great room, Bowie said. A family who wants to interact more with neighbors might have a front porch. Brown said slow homes eliminate the little annoyances that tend to make our already harried lives more stressful — such as entries without closets, bathrooms that opendirectlytolivingareasorlaundry rooms so close to the back door that people are constantly tripping over laundry baskets when they enter. He likens those kinds of poorly designed elements to an ill-fitting pair of shoes. They just make it harder to get through the day. Author Shannon Honeybloom also sees a slow home as a nurturer. To her, the slow-home movement involves determining how you want to live or raise children and then creating an environment that supports those goals, a concept she outlines in her book “Making a Family Home.” She advocates creating a way of lifeandahomethatputlessemphasis on instant information and entertainment and more on encouraging interaction, imagination and learning. Elemental concepts Honeybloom’s concept of a slow homemightincludesuchelements as a comfortable reading chair, a backyard garden where the whole family can putter, a computer somewhere other than where the children usually play and a stepstool in the bathroom that enables little ones to wash their own hands or brush their own teeth. Most average homes designed before 1950 are slow by design, Brown said. They’re often simple, “but they work,” he said. But like the food industry, he said, the housing industry started turning out houses — or “products,” as he calls them — designed

for short-term sale rather than long-term livability. Dazzling features and square footage sold houses, not abundant natural light, access to the outdoors or a location in a walkable neighborhood. Ideally, Brown said, a slow home would be designed that way from the start by an architect who takes into consideration the occupants’ interests, needs and habits. Still, he said you can slow an existing home. Something as simple asrearrangingfurniturecanmakea better fit. The slow-home movement isn’t “a touchy-feely new-age thing,” Brown said, but a way of helping homes better serve their occupants.

Abandoned child can’t share in family’s nostalgia for late mother Dear Abby: My mom died of an aneurysm 23 years ago. I was only 7. I occasionally hear an aunt or uncle talk about how much they loved her and miss her. I moved in with an aunt when I was 5, due to abuse from my father. Two years later, my mom was gone. As kids, my brother and I never received counseling. We bounced from home to home and finally ended up in a stable environment with our grandma. I usually feel guilty when people talk about my mom because I cannot relate. I tell myself that maybe God sacrificed her so I could have a good life. Sometimes, I feel more anger than love toward her because of the

DEAR ABBY

only of yourself, but also the dynamics in your family. You do not deserve to be carrying around any guilt at all.

ADVICE

Dear Abby: When people have a serious illness, their friends and family usually send “Get Well” messages and flowers to the hospital. Unfortunately, it isn’t the custom to send supportive greetings and gifts to those who are dealing with psychiatric illnesses. These people deserve all of the attention and good wishes that other patients receive. Please let it be known that psychiatric illnesses are treatable and recovery is possible. Support in all forms is essential in all patients’ progress toward recovering from serious illness of any kind. — Kathy in Universal City, Texas

abuse and abandonment. What am I supposed to feel about her? Can someone love a person they never knew? — Emotionless in Oklahoma City Dear Emotionless: It is very difficult to love someone you never knew. And from your description of your childhood, your feelings are understandable. However, because those feelings are bothering you and creating guilt, they should be discussed with a licensed professional. If you do, you will gain a better understanding not

UNIVERSAL SUDOKU

CRYPTOQUOTE

Dear Kathy: You make a good point. The reason some people may be hesitant to acknowledge someone’s mental illness may be the stigma that’s still attached to these kinds of problems. But you’re absolutely right. When people are ill, they need to know they’re cared about — and a card with warm good wishes is a step in the right direction. Dear Abby: I’m 14 and have a big problem. My teacher, “Mrs. Smith,” adores me. She is always calling on me and telling the class about all the things I’m doing correctly. After she does it, the other kids glare at me and call me “Teacher’s Pet.” It makes me uncomfortable, but I can’t help it if Mrs. Smith likes

me. What should I do? — Don’t Want to Be Teacher’s Pet Dear Don’t: When a student excels at athletics, music or drama, it usually makes the boy or girl a celebrity on campus. Sadly, the same is often not true when a student excels at academics, and it’s a shame. Because being used as an example is making you a target, ask your teacher to tone it down. And if it doesn’t happen, have your mother speak to the teacher and/or the principal, if necessary. To receive a collection of Abby’s most memorable — and most frequently requested — poems and essays, send a business-sized, selfaddressed envelope, plus check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear Abby’s “Keepers,” P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)

HOROSCOPE BY HOLIDAY MATHIS

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

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Status is not the same thing as power, and today will illustrate this difference. You care more about what you can actually do than what people think about you while you’re doing it, which shows that you value power over status. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You don’t like having to rely on others to meet your needs, but that is the way it is, and there’s no getting around it today. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Someone has repeatedly disappointed you. Normally, you would take this as a sign to move on, but things are different this time. You realize that if this person does what he says he will even once, you will benefit greatly. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Not only do you appreciate an environment that is neat and orderly; today, you require it to feel that all is right with the world. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Usually, you would prefer to be unencumbered by material things. However, today you’ll have an idea of how important it is to save the items that help you to recall happy days and the people you have loved. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Some people wrongly believe that two powerful people cannot easily exist in one relationship. You’ll prove this theory untrue, as you and a partner each apply your ambition to a mutual aim. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). In some ways, you are fundamentally different from those you were brought up around, but today you’ll mostly see the ways in which you are alike. You’ll appre-

ciate the special circumstances that helped create you. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You are uniquely equipped to understand raw concepts and bring your visionary powers to what is unfinished. You will turn theory into practice and make music, either literally or figuratively. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). An event this afternoon could cause you to ponder things you usually don’t give much thought to, such as your position in society. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You will be entrusted with a responsibility, and you’ll be in a position to choose the right associations and arrangements to handle the situation. Evaluate each deal, and determine its appropriateness for you and yours. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You and your loved ones don’t always agree on the little things. But when it comes down to doing what’s necessary, you unify, and the strength of your group will help you to prevail. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Someone close may be acting unconsciously to limit you. Call out the behavior. If you don’t, the pattern of subtle restriction will continue. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (March 19). Relationships and love will bring satisfaction and deep emotional fulfillment. There’s fantastic news for your family in June. Because of your keen handling of money, you’ll make a beautiful event happen in July. You share a special connection with Sagittarius and Libra people. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 25, 33, 5 and 19.

MINI COOPER FROM PAGE 1

,so the Countryman doesn’t look like a car that has only had a nose job. I liked how the extra weight of the longer car and the longer wheelbase made the Countryman feel stable. The car didn’t bob up and down on highway expansion cracks the way a shorter-wheelbase Mini Cooper hatchback did. And the heavier weight — 600-plus pounds more than a three-door Mini Cooper hatchback — was apparent as my passengers and I felt some body roll as the Countryman traveled on twisty roads. This isn’t so noticeable on the smaller Mini Coopers. Still, the Countryman, with all-wheel drive, tracked right along with confidence. The tester had the standard suspension, which felt more compliant than that of many Mini Cooper hatchback models and provided a surprisingly comfortable ride. But it wasn’t quiet. I heard road noise from the run-flat, 18-inch tires and had to turn up the radio. The Countryman has the same two 1.6-liter engines that are in other Minis. The base engine is naturally aspirated and produces 114 foot-pounds of torque at 4,250 rpm. The tester had the turbo version with a more adequate peak torque of 177 foot-pounds starting at a low 1,600 rpm. Moving through the gears via the rather ratchety-feeling manual, I got the Countryman moving easily into traffic and out on the highway. There was a bit of turbo lag, but the turbo is a good match for this 3,200-plus model. Fuel economy for the test car was rated at 25 mpg in city driving and 31 mpg on the highway. I managed 28 miles a gallon in combined city and highway driving. The tester was front-drive all the time, except when sensors detected wheel slip. Then, all-wheel drive engaged automatically. It can send as much as half the engine torque to the rear wheels. 135

The interior is like that of other Minis, with a large speedometer in the middle of the dashboard, not in front of the driver, and toggle switches serving as window controls. The center rail’s storage spot, which was clipped in place, was flimsy. The back seat offers 33.8 inches of legroom which is up from 29.9 inches in the Mini Cooper hatchback. Shoulder room is 52 inches, up from 44.7 inches. Cargo space of 41.3 cubic feet maximum compares with more than 70 cubic feet in the RAV4 and other SUVs. There’s a nice liftgate at the rear, not two small doors as on the Clubman. The Countryman comes with many standard safety features, including electronic stability control, traction control and seven air bags.

OPINION

Schools deserve to know about criminal records

Congress butts heads on budget cuts

PENN STATE University’s lacrosse team traveled to Charlottesville, Va., to play the University of Virginia two Sundays ago. The Nittany Lions were fortunate to be on hand for a poignant ceremony honoring the life and memory of former Cavaliers lacrosse standout Yeardley Love. Ten months ago Love, a respected student-athlete and four-year letter winner, was preparing to graduate from the prestigious university founded in 1819 by Thomas Jefferson. Three weeks short of commencement police were summoned to Love’s apartment where she was found face down, in her bedroom, beaten, bloodied and unresponsive. News reports described her right eye swollen shut, bruises about her body and that “the brutality of the crime moved Charlottesville Police Chief Timothy Longo nearly to tears.” It was the early morning hours of Monday, May 3, 2010, and Love, 22, was pronounced dead at the scene. Yeardley Reynolds Love was born on July 17, 1987, in Baltimore, Md. She grew up a short distance away in Cockeysville and attended Notre Dame Preparatory School in Towson. While at Notre Dame she starred on the field hockey and lacrosse teams. She earned All-Baltimore County lacrosse honors in 2006 and was recruited by the University of Virginia, where she enrolled and pursued a degree in government. At Love’s funeral before an overflow assembly of 2,000 mourners, UVA head women’s lacrosse coach Julie Myers called Love “truly remarkable. It came easy for her to be great, to be kindhearted, welcoming, encouraging and engaging to all who knew her.” By 6 on the morning of her death, police had arrested UVA senior George Wesley Huguely V. A 6-foot-2-inch, 209-pound UVA lacrosse player from Chevy Chase, Md., Huguely lived in a nearby apartment building, once dated the victim and was charged with the first-degree murder of Yeardley Love. Huguely, now 23, also has been charged with felony murder, robbery, burglary, statutory burglary and grand larceny. Since his arrest he has been held without bond in a 4-by-8-foot cell at the Albemarle-Charlottesville prison. The events of May 3 were not Huguely’s first run-in with the law. While it’s difficult to believe family members did not know of his previous encounters with police, it is impossible to imagine that his coaches and teammates were unaware. But so often winning trumps character. The University of Virginia now requests that all students reveal their criminal histories each semester before classes begin. Yet there appears to be no legal requirement that law enforcement notify colleges of a student’s criminal record. That should change, nationwide, and now is the time. In three weeks, George Huguely V is scheduled to finally face a preliminary hearing on the charges brought against him. And it was only two weeks ago that Love was honored and remembered prior to the Penn State-Virginia women’s lacrosse match. In the pre-game ceremony, Love’s jersey number, No. 1, was permanently retired and a flag bearing her name and number was hoisted to fly, from that day forward, above all UVA women’s lacrosse contests. At a candlelight vigil following Love’s death, UVA President John Casteen said, “My hope for Yeardley, and for you, is that her dying inspires an anger, a sense of outrage that engenders determination here and wherever Yeardley’s name is recognized that no woman … in our nation need either fear for her safety or experience violence for any reason …” The time has come for all colleges and universities, students and coaches, professors and staff to be notified when offenders are walking the hallowed halls and playing fields of their campuses.

ONCE UPON a time, when newly elected members of the House of Representatives arrived in Washington, they were expected to be seen and not heard. They found mentors among more experienced members of Congress, went quietly to work on issues important to their home districts — highway construction, defense contracts — and concentrated on getting re-elected for a second term. No longer. The giant 87-member class of Republican freshmen that arrived this year isn’t behaving like earlier generations. Seventy-six of them won the endorsements of “tea party” groups; they believe they have a mandate to cut federal spending, shrink the federal government and repeal President Obama’s health-care law. And they have no intention of waiting. “The reason I ran is that I recognized that our country was in trouble,” Rep. Kristi Noem, R-S.D., one of the leaders of the freshman class, told me last week. “We were spending money we don’t have. We have to stop that.” In their first month on the job, many of the freshmen joined in a series of small rebellions against their own leadership. When Speaker John A. Boehner, R-Ohio, proposed to cut spending for the rest of the current year by about $31 billion, the rebels demanded cuts that would add up to $100 billion. And in an implicit rebuke to Boehner himself, they eliminated spending on a jet fighter engine that was being built in the speaker’s Ohio district. For a few days there, the House floor looked out of control. But Boehner and his lieutenants responded. They turned their orientation program for the freshmen into “listening sessions,” to give the new members a chance to vent and offer suggestions directly to their leaders. “It gave them an ability to speak,” said Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., the Republican whip, who conducted many of the intergenerational meetings. As a result of the listening sessions, he told Boehner: “Your initial number is not going to go.” In the end, the House voted for a $61 billion cut, the Republicans’ opening bid in negotiations with the Democratic-led Senate. Now McCarthy and Rep. Paul D. Ryan, R-Wis., chairman of the House Budget Committee, are using more listening sessions to prepare for their next big decisions: What to do if the Senate, as expected, responds with a proposal for, say, $40 billion in cuts. And what to do when the time comes to raise the federal debt ceiling — the amount of money the Treasury is allowed to borrow to keep the government running. If the tea party freshmen and other hard-line conservatives dig in their heels on the spending bill, the result could be a shutdown of much of the federal government, a tactic that backfired on Republicans when then-Speaker Newt Gingrich tried it in 1995. And if they balk at raising the debt ceiling, the result could be chaos in the financial markets, another problem the GOP leadership doesn’t want to be blamed for. Last year, Boehner said the debt-ceiling vote would be the freshman members’ first “adult moment,” a demeaning phrase he has been careful not to repeat. So McCarthy and Ryan have been holding hours of meetings with the freshmen, showing them Ryan’s collection of PowerPoint slides to help bring them up to speed on the hard facts of the federal budget, and to nudge them toward compromise The graph that grabs everyone’s attention is one that shows federal debt held by the public as a dramatic wedge of red ink that swells from less than 100 percent of gross domestic product now to a staggering 700 percent by about 2075. It’s a deliberate scare tactic, based on what would happen if nobody took

Senior judges refuse to hang up their robes By CAROL J. WILLIAMS Los Angeles Times

OS ANGELES — The pile of unread magazines and novels on her bedside table is Judge Betty Fletcher’s only regret in letting retirement elude her.

Fletcher, who turns 88 this month and relies on a walker to navigate airports and courthouse corridors, retired a dozen years ago yet still works full time, on what is known as senior status, for the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. She travels throughout the court’s ninestate region for hearings and spends seven days a week poring over foot-high stacks of writ-

ten filings. As federal courts stagger under the weight of mounting caseloads and vacant judgeships go unfilled for years, senior judges like Fletcher have come to the rescue, especially in the 9th Circuit, where they shoulder a third of the legal load. “It’s kind of a double whammy,” Fletcher said of the courts that have had no new judgeships

added in 21 years and that have declining numbers of active judges because of partisan posturing in Congress. Nearly 11 percent of the nation’s 875 lifetime positions are empty.

Political pranksters turn up heat, cunning

By NEAL JUSTIN Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

MINNEAPOLIS — Politicians and corporate leaders: Prepare to be punk’d. Last week, National Public Radio’s chief executive and senior fundraiser resigned after off-the-cuff remarks were made to conservative activists posing as potential donors. Two weeks ago a left-leaning blogger made the ultimate prank call when he mimicked the voice of an influential billionaire and connected with an all-too-informal Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker. Pranksters and public relations experts agree the antics are just getting started. “It’s a good, creative way to hold people accountable,” said activist Nick Espinosa, who dumped a load of pennies in front of Minnesota gubernatorial candidate Tom Emmer last summer and disrupted a 2009 tea party rally in St. Paul when he somehow managed to get on a speakers’ list. “I think people are bombarded by political messages in the media and can get sick of it, but if it’s humorous, or you can put a new spin on it, they’ll pay at-

THE TIMES LEADER www.timesleader.com

OUR OPINION: SENTENCINGS

Child porn cases need equal action

T’S WIDELY accepted in the legal arena and on the street that if you’re going to do the crime, you better be prepared to do the time. But shouldn’t that “time,” whether it’s a prison sentence or other form of punishment, be fairly standard for people who commit similar crimes? In cases of child pornography, that’s often not what happens. Last week’s sentencing of a Harveys Lake man who admitted to possessing child pornography – three videotapes, for which he paid $164 – again highlighted the disparity in the ways offenders can be treated, depending on which court system hears the case. George Gracely III, 51, landed in a federal courtroom, where judges typically abide by sentencing guidelines: If guilty of child porn possession, get a mandatory minimum of five years in prison. Gracely, who had been involved in various Back Mountain youth sports leagues, received his five-year term, plus a $2,000 fine. He must undergo sexual offender counseling while in prison and, after his release, remain on lifetime supervision by the federal probation department. He also must register as a sex offender for life. Maybe you think that’s fair. And maybe it is. But child pornography defendants who are prosecuted in state courts, rather than in the federal system, often receive sentences of only months in prison, or house arrest or probation. It happens routinely, even in situations where the of-

fender possesses hundreds of child porn images. Even when the offender admits to downloading and trading those images over the Internet. Where’s the justice in that? How long can authorities give their tacit approval to a system in which certain people who view child pornography sometimes go to prison for longer durations than child molesters? An article in The Times Leader earlier this year, by staff writer Terrie Morgan-Besecker, spotlighted the inconsistencies between state and federal courts’ treatment of this matter, noting that some officials have been questioning it. “A poll of federal judges conducted last year by the U.S. Sentencing Commission showed that 70 percent believe the guidelines for possession and receipt of child pornography are too high,” she wrote. “The U.S. Department of Justice, while not taking a position on the appropriateness of the guidelines, also has recommended that the Sentencing Commission re-evaluate how sentences are calculated.” Possession of child pornography is a disturbing and socially destructive crime, and potentially could lead to more dangerous behavior. You could argue that state courts treat the offense too leniently. Or that federal courts treat it too harshly. What can’t be argued in good conscience, however, is that people receiving grossly different punishments for the same illegal actions are getting “justice.”

QUOTE OF THE DAY

William Ryan Pennsylvania’s acting attorney general last week blasted a hauler who allegedly dumped millions of gallons of wastewater from natural gas drilling, sewage sludge and restaurant grease into streams and mine shafts. Prosecutors filed 98 criminal counts against Robert Allan Shipman of Holbrook and 77 counts against his company, Allan’s Waste Water Service Inc.

OTHER OPINION: AFGHAN WAR

Departure day is long overdue

EAVE Afghanistan sooner than later. Heed the advice, Mr. President, from two important sources of counsel: the U.S. public and a top military adviser. America’s pessimism about the war in Afghanistan and Gen. David Petraeus’ optimistic assessment of military and civilian conditions end up in the same place, headed toward the exit. Petraeus’ appearance before the Senate Armed Service Committee on Tuesday was his first public review of the war since he assumed command in June 2010. He told a receptive panel that U.S. forces could begin to leave this summer. His testimony coincided

with release of a Washington Post-ABC News poll that found 64 percent of Americans saying the war is not worth fighting. Nearly 80 percent said the United States should withdraw a substantial number of troops this July, a benchmark set by the president. The same poll found only 39 percent think he will actually do it. The United States has been in Afghanistan since 2001, and it has been fighting itself out of a hole since 2005. The time is long overdue for the United States to depart. Obama sent 30,000 troops to Afghanistan after taking office. Bring them and the other 70,000 home as well. The Seattle Times

If development is bad, why is redevelopment good? WHY ARE so many people who are opposed to development nevertheless in favor of “redevelopment”? The short answer is that development involves decisions made in the market by large numbers of people in the general population, in their own personal interests, while redevelopment involves taking decisions out of the hands of the population at large and putting the power to make those decisions in the hands of elites. Developers who build housing to sell to the public are the focus of many denunciations by elites in places such as coastal California. But developers would not even exist if there were not vastly larger numbers of people ready to buy or rent what they build. All these people who make the developers’ work economically viable vanish into thin air in political rhetoric that is focused on the developer and his “greed.” The people who are against development dare not come right out and say in plain English that they want other people’s desires squashed by the government, so that the desires of the small, self-congratulatory elites can prevail, while housing prices skyrocket because of the restriction on building. If development is considered to be so bad, why is redevelopment considered to be good, by many of the same people? Redevelopment imposes the supposedly

COMMENTARY THOMAS SOWELL superior wisdom and virtue of an elite on the rest of us. That is its ideological appeal to self-congratulatory elites. Its political appeal is more mundane. By bulldozing low-income neighborhoods and replacing them with upscale malls and condos, local political leaders get more tax money into their coffers, offering more opportunities for them to do things that enhance their chances of being re-elected. A politically successful redevelopment project enables those who promoted it to show “before and after” photos of the neighborhood that has been bulldozed and replaced by shiny new buildings, tree-lined vistas and clearly upscale new housing. This is easily portrayed as a welcome new addition to the community, both aesthetically and economically. In reality, what redevelopment does is transfer wealth from one place to another place, with no net addition to the wealth of the country as a whole. But it increases tax revenues in the local jurisdiction, which is what local politicians care about. When money that would have been spent and taxed elsewhere is transferred into a particular jurisdiction, that is no net increase

in tax revenues, or of jobs, in the country, however. Redevelopment exports low-income people and imports high-income people – with no net addition or subtraction of either segment of the population in the country as a whole. The huge costs of redevelopment projects turn what would otherwise be a zero-sum process into a huge net loss for society. Between restrictions on development and the destruction of existing low-income housing by redevelopment, low-income and even moderate-income people are forced out by high housing costs. Often this process takes the form of ethnic cleansing. Blacks, for example, have been driven out of communities up and down the San Francisco peninsula, including East Palo Alto, which was once 61 percent black, and is today only 17 percent black. All this is a high price to pay for a political hoax. But the dozens of redevelopment agencies in California are up in arms at the suggestion that the money they get be cut, in order to deal with the state’s financial crisis. Local politicians are of course on the side of these agencies, so the hoax might well continue. Thomas Sowell is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305.

Writer: Losing job during the recession has an upside TWO YEARS ago, I felt the full blunt force of the recession come crashing down on me. I lost my job of 18 years, writing and editing at the Los Angeles Times. With a tap on the shoulder and a summons to HR, I became just another casualty in the economic collapse that has reduced our nation’s work force by 8 million jobs. From the beginning, I decided I wouldn’t waste an ounce of energy being angry at what happened to me or blame anyone – including myself. I kept my eyes focused on the target: Keeping my family afloat in what is arguably the world’s most difficult economic time. And I have succeeded, patching together a quite respectable income from multiple sources. I write for dozens of publications both in print and online; I juggle public relations and marketing clients in between, and I get to go to work in my bedroom slippers most days. Still, the recession changed everything for me. And for you, the still-tethered to an insecure daily job, it probably has not. I am living the effects of the recession while you are just observing it from the sidelines. Everything about our lives – yours and mine – is different.

Social Security IOUs hold no future for fund RECENTLY, President Obama’s budget chief, Jack Lew, took to his White House blog to repeat his claim that the Social Security trust fund is solvent through 2037. And to chide me for suggesting otherwise. I had argued in my last column that the trust fund is empty, indeed fictional. If Lew’s claim were just wrong, that would be one thing. But it provides the intellectual justification for precisely the kind of debt denial and entitlement complacency in which his boss is now engaged. Therefore, once more unto the breach. Lew acknowledges that the Social Security surpluses of the last decades were siphoned off to the Treasury Department and spent. He also agrees that Treasury then deposited corresponding IOUs – called “special issue” bonds – in the Social Security trust fund. These have real value, claims Lew. After all, “these Treasury bonds are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government in the same way that all other U.S. Treasury bonds are.” Really? If these trust fund bonds represent anything real, why is it that in calculating national indebtedness they are not even included? We measure national solvency by debt/GDP ratio. As calculated by everyone from the OMB to the CIA, from the SimpsonBowles to the Domenici-Rivlin commissions, the debt/GDP ratio counts only publicly held debt. This means bonds held by China, Saudi Arabia, you and me. The debt ratio completely ignores the kind of intragovernmental bonds that Lew insists are the equivalent of publicly held bonds. Why? Because the intragovernmental bond is nothing more than a bookkeeping device that records how much one part of the U.S. government (Treasury) owes another part of the same government (the Social Security Administration). In judging the creditworthiness of the United States, the world doesn’t care what the left hand owes the right. It’s all one entity. It cares only what that one entity owes the world. That’s why publicly held bonds are so radically different from intragovernmental bonds. If we default on Chinese-held debt, decades of AAA creditworthiness is destroyed, the world stops lending to us, the dollar collapses, the economy goes into a spiral and we become Argentina. That’s why such a default is inconceivable. On the other hand, what would happen to financial markets if the Treasury stopped honoring the “special

COMMENTARY CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER issue” bonds in the Social Security trust fund? A lot of angry grumbling at home for sure. But externally? Nothing. This “default” would simply be the Treasury telling the Social Security Administration that henceforth it would have to fend for itself in covering its annual shortfall. How? By means-testing (cutting the benefits to the rich), changing the inflation formula, raising the retirement age and, if necessary, hiking the cap on income subject to the payroll tax. You can plug in whatever combination of numbers you prefer for the definition of “rich,” for the slope of the sliding scale of benefit reduction, for the rate of the retirement-age increase or for any other variable. Whatever the formula, we will ironically have been forced to adopt the very reforms needed to keep Social Security in balance for years to come – the kind President Obama’s own deficit commission recommended. Arguably, that would add to U.S. creditworthiness by finally demonstrating to the world our seriousness about bringing our unsustainable pension liabilities under control. Invoking the “full faith and credit” mantra for those IOUs in the trust fund is empty bluster. It does not change the fact that, as the OMB itself acknowledged, those IOUs “do not consist of real economic assets that can be drawn down in the future to fund benefits.” Yet Lew continues to insist that these “special issue” trinkets will pay off seniors for the next 26 years. Nonsense. That money is gone with the wind. Those trust fund trinkets are nothing more than a record of past borrowings. They say nothing about the future. Consider: If Treasury had borrowed twice as much from Social Security in the past – producing twice as many IOUs sitting in the lockbox – would this mean the trust fund is today twice as strong? Solvent for 50-some years instead of just 26? Of course not. The trust fund “balances” are mere historical record-keeping. As the OMB itself admitted, future payouts will have to be met by future taxes and future borrowings – or by Social Security reform that, by reducing benefits, makes such taxing and borrowing unnecessary. There is no third alternative. There is no free lunch. And there is nothing in the lockbox. Charles Krauthammer’s e-mail address is letters@charleskrauthammer.com.

winter friends. Make way for tractor and seed. The soil below you F arewell, soon will lie fallow no more, and crops will reclaim their rightful territory.

When did gotcha gimmicks replace journalism? MAYBE I’M confused, but if someone tricked me into a lunch by pretending to be someone else, secretly hid a camera, goaded me into comments during a private conversation – then released only the juiciest parts on the Internet, I’d at least have the right to be ticked off, right? Apparently not. When this happened to Ron Schiller, chief fundraiser for National Public Radio, he resigned. So did NPR’s CEO, Vivian Schiller, even though she had nothing to do with the comments. I’ve heard about liberal guilt. But whatever happened to fighting back? The sleazeball behind this latest “gotcha” incident is James O’Keefe, who is all of 26 years old, calls himself an investigative journalist without formal training and thinks nothing of lying and fraud as long as it perpetuates his strong conservative viewpoint. Thus he sent his operatives to a lunch posing as Muslim charity workers. Posing, as in faking. They offered to make a phony $5 million contribution to NPR. Phony, as in lying. The offer was not accepted (did anyone notice this?) yet the poseurs continued to engage Ron Schiller in a conversation that ultimately led to the tea party. (We don’t know the whole conversation because, as of press time,

COMMENTARY MITCH ALBOM O’Keefe still hadn’t released it.) Schiller, who clearly said he was speaking as an individual, not an NPR employee, made some disparaging remarks about the tea party, as if no one has ever done that before. But when the edited comments were released, chaos ensued. The right wing screamed it was evidence that public broadcasting should be de-funded. The left distanced itself from Schiller’s “inappropriate” remarks. And nobody asked the obvious question: When did this become journalism? Let’s get a few things straight. I’m not here to defend or attack public broadcasting. That’s a debate for another day. But there used to be certain rules for reporting. No matter what your opinion of a subject, you did not pretend to be a person you were not. You didn’t give a fake name or a fake workplace. You didn’t hide cameras and mikes during phony conversations. Yes, investigative journalists might fade into the background and war correspondents might keep their identities quiet for safety reasons. But having a private lunch with a businessman – totally as a setup to trap him? This

isn’t “Serpico.” You’re not cops on a sting. And yet this “Punk’d” version of news is now so accepted, no one makes nearly the stink about O’Keefe as they do about his victim. Supporters say O’Keefe revealed the true liberal bias of NPR – so somehow the ends justify the means. Well, besides the fact that Schiller was a fundraiser, not a news exec, and the business and editorial sides of public broadcasting are notably separate, let me ask you this. You’re a salesman. A big customer makes a dirty joke. Do you lecture him – or just laugh along because deep down you need the sale? You’re a business owner, and a customer turns the conversation political. Do you stop and make a stand? Or do you maybe utter a few agreements and later, on the way home, tell yourself, “I didn’t even mean that.” Well, now imagine that those moments were recorded and smeared across the world. Wouldn’t your first reaction be, “Hey. That guy was a fraud! And that was private!” Of course you would. But when it’s someone else, we prefer to say, “Aha!” We’d better be careful if what passes for journalism becomes nothing more than dogmatic espionage. It’s the cheapest, laziest form of news – hide a camera and call it a story. There’s no context. No thoroughness. Just “watch this and get shocked.”

There used to be certain rules for reporting. No matter what your opinion of a subject, you did not pretend to be a person you were not. You didn’t give a fake name or a fake workplace. You didn’t hide cameras and mikes during phony conversations. Of course, if you did such a thing to a conservative broadcast exec, he might call his opponents something inflammatory, too – like “Nazis.” Wait. That actually happened. Roger Ailes, the head of Fox News, called NPR execs “Nazis” not very long ago. He said it for the record. Funny. He still has his job. If you really wanted to show a liberal bias to NPR, you could try to prove it by studying hundreds of its broadcasts. But studies take time and effort and they’re not as cool. Hiding a camera and playing “gotcha” is more fun. Which is what O’Keefe and crew do. Sorry, folks, the guy is no hero. Journalistically, he’s a coward. And I don’t get why NPR rolled over for his stunt. Maybe you can’t shoot the messenger. But come on. You can at least criticize him, can’t you? Mitch Albom is a columnist for the Detroit Free Press.

Sprinkler repeal jeopardizes safety

➛

SUNDAY, MARCH 20, 2011

ongratulations to the state House of Representatives for once again siding with big business and sticking it to the first responders and residents of this great commonwealth. On March 7, the House voted to repeal the fire sprinkler mandate, a law that took significant steps toward reducing the annual fire deaths and injuries. In doing so, the majority of House members said that, once again, they are more worried about the financial well-being of our businesses than they are about the safety of our residents. In justifying his support for the repeal of this mandate, state Rep. Gerald Mullery, D-Newport Township, stated his reason for repealing the law was his concern for the economic viability of the homebuilders and the affordability of the homes. Using figures received from Peter Restaino, of the homebuilding lobby, I researched exactly how much of an impact sprinklers would have on a homeowner. According to Restaino, a typical 2,000square-foot home would require $5,000 to install sprinklers, not including plans, etc. I took that $5,000, added an additional $5,000 for contingencies, and ran these numbers through an amortization calculator. A mortgage of $250,000 at 6 percent interest for 30 years would amount to a principal and interest payment of $1,498.88. After adding $10,000 to the initial mortgage, the new payment would be $1,558.83, a difference of $59.95 per month. Divide that number by an average 30-day month, and the new mortgage would cost a homeowner just

under $2 more per day. The homebuilders’ argument that requiring sprinklers would effectively halt new home ownership does not seem to hold up under scrutiny. I will concede there are circumstances that will cause some mortgages to go higher, but this should not stop the average new home buyer from pursuing a new home. And if it did, you have to ask, could they truly afford that home to begin with? In reference to the fire sprinkler debate, Restaino, in an op-ed piece to The Times Leader (March 5) wrote, “Sprinklers are not a public safety issue, as some in the firefighting community might say.” Is he serious? This is totally what this is about. Firefighters have only one objective and that is the preservation of life and property. Yes, hardwired smoke detectors do a good job of alerting people to fires in their homes, but they do nothing to control or extinguish the fire, thereby allowing more time to exit the home. Mr. Restaino goes on to say the need for sprinklers in new homes is not needed, because newer homes are safer than older homes, which he calls “tinderboxes.” I must disagree. As a firefighter, I would much rather fight a fire in a home that is 40 or 50 years old. Why? Older homes are made of real lumber nailed together with real nails. Today, homes are built with floor joists made from sheets of

wood chips glued together that are then stood vertically with 2-inch-by-2 inch pieces of wood at the top and bottom. When exposed to fire, these floors can collapse within minutes. Yes, automatic fire sprinkler systems will add to the cost of a home. Will the addition of sprinkler systems in new homes effectively halt the purchase of newly constructed homes? Contrary to “the sky is falling” dire warnings of the homebuilders’ lobby, no, it will not. The state House got this one wrong. Charles DeLauter Dover

Step up the fight against terrorists

sneak attack by the Japanese Empire on the American facilities in Hawaii in 1941 killed 2,402 U.S. servicemen and civilians. The attacks left 18 ships, including eight battleships, sunk or severely damaged. Adm. William F. Halsey, upon learning about the carnage declared, “When we’re through with them, the Japanese language will be spoken only in hell.” Backed by a determined U.S. citizenry and led by Adm. Halsey and men like him, U.S armed forces relentlessly beat the Japanese back to their home islands and defeated them with two massive atomic bombs. Japan surrendered in August 1945.

With the help of the United States, Japan became an industrial giant and major trade partner with the western world, and the United States solidified its standing as the superpower that our forefathers envisioned. Fast forward to the next massive attack on the United States. On Sept. 11, 2001, 19 Muslim terrorists (mostly from Saudi Arabia) flew two U.S. civilian airliners into the World Trade Center in New York and one into the Pentagon in Washington. These actions resulted in the deaths of 2,977 civilians and military personnel. When the news of these attacks spread, millions of the Muslim faith cheered. Despite the Sept. 11 attacks and the several attacks that followed, where the terrorist’s cry of “Allah Akbar” was heard, we have seen no retaliation. Our responses? We harass and demean our own citizens at airports, railway stations and public buildings. We have a mayor and some people in New York City who want to honor these terrorists by allowing a mosque to be constructed in the virtual shadow of where the World Trade Center once stood. And worst of all, we have placed in the White House a person who is at best a gutless, inexperienced, apologist who bows to the leaders of this religion that has declared war on us. This man and his cohorts not only refuse to recognize the attacks for the organized terrorism that they are, he attempts to make the United States out as responsible. The World Trade Center should have been rebuilt to its previous state. We should be actively drilling for oil in the United States and in the Gulf. There should be no discussion regarding the mosque in lower Manhattan. Osama Bin Laden

and his followers should have been annihilated long before this, and Barack Obama should be impeached! Make no mistake: Muslims have declared war on us, and unless we begin to accept this premise and begin to fight back as Adm. Halsey and the U.S. forces did in World War II, we are going to become a nation of people subservient to this malignancy. H. Andrew Reed Sugarloaf Township

Superintendent’s words hypocritical

here was a quote by Wilkes-Barre Area School District Superintendent Jeff Namey in The Times Leader on March 9 regarding the state budget presented by Gov. Tom Corbett and the proposed cuts to education. Namey said: “You need to cut somewhere. Cuts have to be made, and we have to deal with them and do the best we can ...” How ironic that this statement comes from a school official who earns about $150,000 a year. Theresa Schlingman Wilkes-Barre

Capitalism suffers a loss of morals

agree with the basic principle of the capitalistic system but wonder what role moral standards play. Have our moral standards changed? Do we as a people or government really look at the problems of the world and do our best to solve them for the betterment of all? Or has it come down to only politics and two major political parties making decisions based on party lines and the philosophy

of “what is in it for me”? I recollect a newspaper article following the Agnes Flood. This articled focused on a store, out of the flood zone in Hanover Township, that began to charge higher prices for its food and other items because of the demand for these products. Because this store was charging higher prices, criminal charges were being brought against the store owner. The position was that the store was taking advantage of the people who were affected by the flood. It appeared that moral values played a significant part in how society looked at this form of capitalism. Today, you will read in the stock market report about the price of a barrel of crude oil and notice that when the price per barrel of oil rises, every gas station raises its prices. What amazes me is that this would indicate that each gas station ran out of gas at the same time, thereby forcing each station to purchase gas at a higher price from the wholesaler, thereby passing this increased cost to the consumer. I assume this could be possible, but I wonder if this is really true. Or is it because of what appears to be the new social view of what capitalism entails? I don’t know, but if this is so, is capitalism, in this scenario, better for society? When you compare this example to my 1972 memory, do you wonder: What is the true meaning of capitalism? Have society’s moral values changed since the time of not locking you door and agreements being upheld by a handshake? Only you can be the judge and come to your own conclusion. Only you can make the difference. Stanley Halas Hanover Township

GNA director says taxes should hold

As I read the piece, all I could think was, “Oh, no, here we go again!” You see, I was more than half way through a professional firefighting career in February 1991, when Philadelphia was struck with a disastrous high-rise fire at One Meridian Plaza – a fire that forever changed my outlook. Fortunately, the fire occurred on a weekend, when the building was unoccupied. There were three deaths: all Philadelphia firefighters, inside the building, trying to extinguish an inferno that engulfed eight stories. The blaze began on the 22nd floor, where there were no sprinklers, went to 12 alarms and quickly overwhelmed one of the country’s best fire departments. It was finally extinguished by the first sprinklers it encountered, on the 30th floor. Don’t look for the building in Center City Philadelphia today. It isn’t there anymore. Gone, and perhaps forgotten, by all except the fire service. But on Friday, New Yorkers will mourn 146 deaths that occurred in the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire of 1911. Commercial sprinkler technology was available then, but was prone to discharge water unnecessarily, and was not seriously considered by builders and insurers – until shortly after the fire. What is it about our culture that has us continually closing the proverbial barn door after the horse has escaped? In the United States, residential fire fatalities occur every day, a vast majority, if not all of them, in structures with no residential sprinkler protection – a slowly evolving, repetitive disaster, if you will. Sprinkler technology has

know firsthand how hard it is to keep, maintain and operate a property – and the taxes that are a part of it. In the late 1990s I experienced hard times and learned a valuable lesson. I could not afford my mortgage and the taxes that accompanied it. It was a very hard time for my family and me. Having had this experience and being a school director, I never want any resident of the Greater Nanticoke Area School District to go through the pain and hardship that I had to endure. I am proud to say that I am a homeowner again, and I’ve learned the importance of keeping our school taxes as low as possible. For years, the Greater Nanticoke Area School Board has not raised your taxes, and I am proud to be part of that team. I always will keep you, the taxpayer, and the education of our students as our top priority. Kenny James Nanticoke

Home sprinklers should be in code

n his well-written commentary of March 5, Peter Restaino of the Building Industry Association of Northeastern Pennsylvania makes a strong case for eliminating residential sprinkler requirements in new home construction. “Overstepping regulation” is the description he uses, urging consumers to support legislation that eliminates this part of the state building code.

improved greatly over the years. They rarely malfunction, and, as the fire service knows, a properly functioning sprinkler head will confine a fire to the room of origin – confine and extinguish – and in the process give occupants the best possibility of surviving. In that regard, sprinklers are even more important than smoke detectors. With all due respect to Mr. Restaino and our re-emerging housing industry, the building code should not be changed. Rob Burnside Swoyersville

Harnessing power can change world

lectricity is humbling. We’re reminded of how we take it for granted when once, perhaps twice, a year a thunderstorm triggers a power outage. Thankfully, it’s usually for only a short time due to the sacrifice of the utility workers who suit up under horrible conditions while we restlessly wait for the lights to come back on in our nice, dry homes. A few hours at most and we’re lost. But to be without it completely? Most of us would crumble. So perhaps this is why we were so moved by the description of life in Africa without electricity in the book “The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind.” Agricultural-based economies such as Malawi are at the mercy of the weather. Drought without power-driven irrigation can create famine and suffering. The burning of kerosene lanterns in small huts is physically damaging to respiratory health. Communication without electricity is limited, and education is even

more limited. Something as simple as the availability of electricity from harnessing wind power can end these problems and change lives forever. We were in awe when reading that a poor boy from Malawi, out of sheer desperation, devoured every donated book he could on physics and electricity; and then, using such exceptional creativity and ingenuity, built a windmill in his village. How he did it was nothing less than remarkable: from fabricating metal washers from scavenged bottle caps to melting and hammering discarded PVC to make the fan blades. When this young inventor, William Kamkwamba, came to the United States, he toured the Windtec Wind Farm in Palm Springs, Calif., where there are more than 6,000 windmills – each more than 200 feet tall with wingspans bigger than jumbo jets. In the belly of each lies a computer that monitors everything from voltage to wind and blade speed. If the wind gusts become too strong, the computer shuts down the rotors so they won’t spin too fast and malfunction. But here’s the really amazing part: Each turbine generates 12,500 volts for a total of 600 megawatts delivered to thousands of homes in Southern California. Six hundred megawatts could power the entire country of Malawi, with energy to spare. Harness the wind, as well as the sun? Where feasible, absolutely. No one gets hurt, no one gets killed, no water supplies get polluted and it’s free for the taking. Even a poor young man from Malawi figured that out. And if you’ve ever thought: “Who cares about Africa and what goes on there? We

should just concentrate on our own problems. Does Africa really matter?” Yes, it does. Pumped gas lately? Human suffering, poverty, lack of education and hopelessness are breeding grounds for radical factions, unscrupulous dictators and instability. Hope and improved living conditions are the antidotes to this poison. Not just in Africa, but everywhere. Mike and Debbie Balash Dallas

Planned Parenthood merits no funding

lanned Parenthood has done a good job of painting itself as an organization that is there to help women and keep them safe; nothing could be farther from the truth. Planned Parenthood is the nation’s largest provider of abortions. It has been caught red-handed offering help to pimps and sex traffickers, and it should be shut down. Planned Parenthood must be defunded. Contact U.S. Sen. Robert Casey of Scranton (1-866-8022833) and Sen. Pat Toomey of Zionsville (202-224-4254) and urge them to support the Pence Amendment to remove federal funding of Planned Parenthood. Ada Magni West Wyoming

Ohio football fan shamed by program

couple of weeks ago, I was shooting my mouth off about an article I read pertaining to Ohio State University’s football coach Jim Tressel running one of the

cleanest programs in the county. Of course, I was telling it to jealous Penn State fans at the Whitehouse Diner in Forty Fort. So much for believing everything you read is the truth, because now we know the truth about the football factory that is known as The Ohio State University. From the beginning, Tressel knew about the infractions committed by the five “spoiled brats.” I had told everyone who knows me that they should have been suspended and not eligible to play in the Sugar Bowl. Woody Hayes is rolling over in his grave because of what is going on there; and so is Earle Bruce, who was ridden out of town like an outlaw, only later to be found innocent. Tressel says he is a staunch disciplinarian but fails to prove it every time he needs to step up and suspend or throw somebody off the team. Talk is cheap, Jim. Well, you fooled them all with your good vocabulary, your clean haircut and sweater vest. The way you can juggle the truth, you should run for some type of political office. I am one of the biggest, diehard Buckeye fans, who supported and trusted you with our very storied program. And no, I didn’t go to Ohio State. I went to Luzerne County Community College; I’m just a fan who bleeds scarlet and gray. I hate to have to admit it when I’m wrong, but those who know me, really know me, will agree that I do run my mouth when I’m right. So now is the time to run my mouth when I am WRONG.

leagues. But they do not earn a penny more for continuing to work, many of them almost full time, than they would if they were to hang up their robes and head for the golf course. “I’m not a gardener and I’m not a housekeeper,” Fletcher says of her lack of interest in more traditional retirement pursuits. “The only thing I would do is more reading for pleasure if I had the time.” The diminutive whitehaired Washington state native says she loves the work and wants to help in this time of crisis. Fletcher also wants to keep sounding the voice that led President Jimmy Carter to make her a federal judge 32 years ago. “I think I bring a set of values and viewpoints to the court, and there is little enough of that now,” she says, alluding to the ideological divide that has emerged on the reputedly liberal court with the conservative appointments of the last administration. “The Carter appointees are pretty much diminished.” Another 9th Circuit senior working harder than he has to is Judge John T. Noonan, appointed to the court by President Ronald Reagan in 1985. But he dismisses the notion that he stays active to defend the ground gained in recent years by appointees of Republican presidents. “I’ve always thought of myself as fairly much in the middle and I think the court has a spectrum of judges now,” said Noonan, 84. He said he doesn’t feel particularly burdened carrying about 75 percent of an active judge’s caseload as he still finds time to write books, including a volume on Shakespeare’s spiritual sonnets coming out in May. Judge Dorothy W. Nelson, another Carter appointee who took senior status 16 years ago, was back on the bench at the Pasadena courthouse on Wednesday, less than two weeks after her husband of 60 years died. She has carried a 75 percent caseload throughout her supposed retirement and has spent “the other 75 percent of my time” at the Western Justice Center she founded for mediation and EARLY

conflict prevention. “I feel a responsibility to the litigants,” said Nelson, 82. “The courts are not for the judges, and they are not for the lawyers. They are for the people who have real grievances that need to be heard.” All but three of the 9th Circuit’s 19 senior judges heard cases over the last year. Their collective caseload accounted for 33 percent of the appeals court’s work in the year that ended in September, said Molly Dwyer, the court’s clerk. “We’d be sunk without them,” Dwyer said of the seniors. “I often joke that I’m shipping out vitamins and giving out orange juice along with the assignments.” Even with the senior reinforcements, active judges on the 9th Circuit still sit on nearly twice the number of panels as those on the other 11 federal appeals courts, according to statistics kept by the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts. Nationwide, seniors handle 21 percent of the federal judiciary’s work, said David Sellers, an assistant director of the federal court agency. The deaths of two 9th Circuit seniors in February and the resignation of another at the start of this year sent a reminder to the court that relying on the largesse of retirees isn’t a long-term strategy for dealing with a swollen caseload. Judge Cynthia Holcomb Hall, who died of cancer at age 82, and Judge David R. Thompson, who died at 80 after suddenly falling ill, heard cases until shortly before they died and left several pending. Judge Thomas G. Nelson, 74, an appointee of President George H.W. Bush who had been on senior status for seven years, resigned from the court in January because of ill health, said Dwyer. Thirteen of the circuit’s seniors are over 80, and seven of the 26 active judges are well past the point at which their age and years of service make them eligible to retire. Former Chief Judge Mary M. Schroeder announced last week that she would take senior status next year and urged the administration to nominate a replacement swiftly in light of the court’s burgeoning workload. “Certainly as people age, the ability to depend on them to

provide regular, ongoing work may become more questionable,” Sellers said of the aging community of judges. Noting that federal judges haven’t had their pay raised for more than 20 years except for occasional cost-of-living adjustments and that their enthusiasm is probably flagging for dockets dominated by drug, immigration and death penalty cases, Sellers warned that “we may get to the stage where some number of senior judges just decide they are going to walk.”

A bill repeatedly introduced in Congress since the mid-1990s would expand the judiciary by 63 judges, including five for the 9th Circuit. That 17 percent increase would not keep pace with the rising caseload in busy areas such as the 9th Circuit. Brookings Institution scholar Russell Wheeler noted that the bill has languished for years while the federal caseload soared with immigration and drug cases, rarely getting a hearing and facing lawmakers

now openly hostile to any expansion of the federal payroll. Whether active or retired, circuit judges earn $184,500 a year and their district court colleagues make $174,000. Yet nearly half of the 95 vacant judgeships have been labeled “emergencies” by the judicial administration agency, including 14 in the 9th Circuit region, based on the number of filings and how long each seat has been empty. In Arizona, the entire federal district has been proclaimed an emergen-

cy, a rare move made when courts are so backed up that they can’t meet the demands of the 1974 Speedy Trial Act, which requires bringing criminal defendants to trial within 70 days of being charged. A few recent confirmations brought the vacancies below the 100 mark, but Wheeler points to the alarming trend of lengthening times between when a vacancy occurs and when it is filled. One of the three open seats on the 9th Circuit — soon to be four with Schroeder’s senior status — has been vacant for more than six years. The nominee to another of the vacancies, University of California, Berkeley, law professor Goodwin Liu, has weathered more than a year of Senate scrutiny and interrogation, with no confirmation vote in sight. Stopgap as the seniors might be, they are the only resource under the courts’ control. “The circuit could not function without those active senior judges,” Arthur Hellman, a University of Pittsburgh law professor, said of the 9th Circuit. But he warns of the unsustainable status quo of judges working well into their 80s. “It’s a looming problem that will reach a period, probably fairly soon, where the percentage of help you can get from seniors is substantially reduced,” Hellman said. “Then the court will really be in trouble.”

ing,” said Yes Men co-founder Mike Bonanno. “With mainstream media being de-funded, there is less real reporting out there and more people are resorting to these kind of tactics to get the word out on stuff that should be obvious.” Pranksters say it’s surprisingly easy to trick their victims. Espinosa said he was on a tea party mailing list and when organizers called for speakers, he merely signed up, saying he wanted to rail against immigrants. What he didn’t tell them was that the speech would be targeting European immigrants, concluding with the chant: “Columbus, go home!” “When someone approaches you, why not Google them or have an assistant do some verifying?” said Scott Cottington, a Minnesota-based consultant

whose clients have included former Gov. Arne Carlson and former Sen. Rudy Boschwitz. “When you don’t do that, you kind of have it coming.” Former Northwest Airlines spokesperson Jon Austin said he wasn’t shocked when a Canadian radio station tricked Sarah Palin into thinking she was talking to the president of France. “If you’re conversant enough in protocol, if you know the right words and have the right phone numbers and the right references, it’s surprising how far you can get into the inner circle,” said Austin, now a communications consultant who specializes in crisis management. New, inexpensive equipment also provides a big assist. Anyone with a cell phone camera can record a stunt — and get it out on the social network. Five years ago, pranks might take 24 hours to make the news, Bonanno said. Now, it’s a matter of hours. “The cost of technology has dropped so low, there’s no barrier

to executing stuff like this,” Austin said. “If you can think of it, you can do it.” Roshini Rajkumar, a former Twin Cities TV reporter who now advises up-and-coming executives, said the best way to avoid being pranked is to watch what you say. “In this day and age, you can’t consider anything off the record,” she said. “You have to be cautious. If you’re going to say ridiculous things like Governor Walker did, you better not say it on the phone. You’d better be looking straight at that person.” Austin echoed those thoughts, predicting that leaders will become completely transparent — or closed off. “Parts of people’s lives that you might reasonably think are private, like having lunch with somebody, aren’t private anymore, unless you’re having lunch naked in a sealed room lined with lead,” he said. “Even then, you might be a little concerned.”

any action at all to curb the deficit — in other words, it’s neither fair nor realistic. Both parties have proposed spending cuts, and Obama has proposed increasing taxes on upper-income taxpayers. But GOP members love the graph (it’s online at budget.house.gov, and many have taken the slide home to show at town meetings. Still, Ryan’s slides also show that, no matter how high the cuts in domestic programs, the red ink will persist. “You take discretionary nondefense (spending) out, you still don’t balance the budget,” McCarthy said, pointing at one of Ryan’s pie charts. The current spending bill, he said, is just a small

THE TIMES LEADER www.timesleader.com “bite of the apple”; next year’s budget is “the entree.” And there’s another slide in Ryan’s presentation that the Republicans haven’t faced up to yet. That’s the one that shows that the biggest driver of future deficit growth is Medicare spending, unless it’s brought under control. When I asked members of the freshman class what they planned to do about Medicare, they basically punted. “We’ve got to come up with a more efficient delivery system for health care,” said Rep. Blake Farenthold, R-Texas. So did McCarthy. “You have to do something on Medicare,” he agreed. But he said he wants to have a long conversation with voters, most of whom staunchly oppose cuts in Medicare spending, before signing on to any particular solution. “I like the idea of talking

to the American public first about all the problems,” he said. On the easy decisions — short-term spending and the debt ceiling — the freshmen are gradually being housebroken. Many of them now sound open to compromises, as long as they include sizable spending cuts. And they’ve largely accepted Boehner’s argument that they shouldn’t block an increase in the nation’s borrowing power. “That debt ceiling vote isn’t going to define us,” Noem said. But on the harder issues of fixing the federal budget for the long run — which means, first of all, Medicare — they’re still a long way from their moment of truth.

Miller memories: An extra recalls one sweet summer By CHRISTOPHER J. HUGHES chughes@golackawanna.com

TAYLOR — When the cameras, crews and stars of the silver screen rolled into Northeastern Pennsylvania in 1982, hundreds lined area streets to catch a glimpse of the actors who would portray state basketball title winners in “That Championship Season.” When the Pulitzer Prizewinning play, now in revival on Broadway, was transformed into a film for the first time, Rob Thomas and a group of neighborhood children worked as extras. He recalls stealing beer cans full of

apple juice and riding his bicycle with friends in scenes that landed on the cuttingroom floor. He was paid $27 for his work, and his parents had the foresight to hang on to the money and the Third National Bank and Trust Company envelope it came in. Faded ink in his mother Nancy’s handwriting says, “July 22, 1982. Pay received for being background in ‘That Championship Season.’ ” Thomas got a lot closer to the actors than most did. “There’s a scene in the movie where Martin Sheen gets loaded, they get into a fight,

and he gets thrown off the front steps of the house. The entire set was shut down, and I was a little kid and I was hiding in those shrubs right there,” he said, pointing to bushes along South Main Street in Taylor. The then-9-year-old Thomas was within about 5 feet of the actor, he said, as he was pushed from a front porch by actor Robert Mitchum in a scene near the very end of the film. During another portion of the film that did make the final cut, the coach and his See MILLER, Page 4F

DETROIT — When jazz bassist and vocalist Esperanza Spalding shockingly beat out teen idol Justin Bieber, Drake, Florence + the Machine and Mumford & Sons for best new artist at the Grammy Awards this year, a large chunk of America squinted at their TVs and said, “Who?” The jazz community, however, has been aware of Spalding and her eclectic melange of jazz, softedged soul, pop, funk, Brazilian music and world-beat idioms for several years. Still basking in post-Grammy buzz, she’s become an “it girl,” whose accessible-yet-sophisticated crossover style, wispy vocals, dark-eyed beauty, five-story Afro and walking-on-sunshine vibe have merged into a charismatic, made-for-prime time package. At 26, Spalding has become the rare contemporary jazz musician to have broken through the force field of popular culture. She has appeared on David Letterman and Jimmy Kimmel, been anointed a “woman on the rise” by Oprah Winfrey, performed at Barack Obama’s Nobel Prize ceremony in Sweden and landed in the pages of the New Yorker, which lavished more than 5,100 words on her story. Predictably, her success has exacerbated familiar fault lines in the jazz community between purist and populist sensibilities. But reductive labels don’t make much sense when it comes to Spalding. The Duke Ellington maxim that there are only two kinds of music, good and bad, is a more viable prism, even as reasonable people might disagree on what kind she’s making at any particular point. Still, she doesn’t mind being at the center of a debate. “It’s good to have a dialogue about our field,” Spalding said about 10 days after her Grammy win. She lives in Austin, Texas, but spoke from her native Portland, Ore., where she was visiting family. “Whether or not my music is considered jazz, I think my music is sincere. I love my music and am proud and happy to share it. I think jazz is so deeply instilled in my blood that it is a really big part of my music. Some people would say my music is real jazz, See SPALDING, Page 5F

ARIES (March 21-April 19). It’s sometimes difficult for you to understand those who hang on too tight to the things that are obviously holding them back. You process everything easily. You take it in, use what you can and let the rest go. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You do something that’s right for you without even realizing that it’s right for many others, as well. Your status as an accidental activist will soon be updated to intentional good-doer. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll need to make quick decisions in order to navigate this day. You’ll likely find yourself in a pretty pickle this afternoon, but worry not. Any problem you have that was created by you can also be solved by you. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Differences of opinion can be easily remedied as long as you don’t invest too much in being right. It will be well worth it to eat a small amount of crow in the name of peace and harmony. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). One missed phone call or appointment, though inconsequential, may still throw off your rhythm. But because of your flexible attitude, you’ll quickly regain your equilibrium. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Mutuality and reciprocity are the concepts by which you run your day. You care about other people’s feelings, needs and experiences, and this comes through in your choices. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). A certain relationship is finding its way to a sustainable reality. The bubble of specialness around a particular person will soon pop. You will still like this person, but you will see things as they really are instead of how you want them to be. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). If you don’t have a license to psychoanalyze, this is a good time to refrain from doing so. Imposing your advice or assessment of other people’s situation can only pull focus from your own productive day. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You can do your work with the tools you have now, but it will be so much more fun and exciting to change it up. It’s about time you made the upgrades that others in your industry are adopting. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It’s not always a bad thing to prejudge situations and people. Your experience has, after all, taught you quite a lot about what to expect. But today, reserve your judgments for later, as you’re likely to be surprised by someone. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). As far as your conversations go, there is a good kind of silence and a bad kind of quiet. The bad kind is awkward. The good kind is attentive and purposeful and may mean that you really like someone. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You do not wish to surround yourself with people who will obey, flatter and comfort you. You choose to spend your time with self-directed, purposeful and intelligent people who can enrich your experience. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (March 20). Life is not a race, but if it were, you would win. This year shows you moving along at a steady pace, like the legendary tortoise, taking in the sights and being present in each moment. April brings new elegance to your world, as well as romance and drama. Personal victory helps your family in May. You’ll hit it off with Aquarius and Sagittarius people. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 30, 21, 44 and 11.

Family flees in face of man’s sports obsession Dear Abby: I have been married for many years to a man who is a good husband and father in many respects. However, he is obsessed with professional sports, especially football. It is affecting our home and social life. Over the years, “Louie” has punched holes in walls and broken the bones in his hands because he became so angry when his favorite team lost. He also has strong hatred toward rival teams. His arguments with people with opposing opinions have cost him friendships. His behavior is so annoying and embarrassing the kids and I don’t want to be around him on Sundays during games. What’s worse is that some of Louie’s friends are amused by his tantrums and egg him on, making him even angrier. Fortunately, he never hits anyone. I don’t want a divorce, but I don’t want to be around Louie, either. Louie’s “problem” makes him unpleasant to be around. When I visit friends and family without him, they wonder if we’re separated.

Chief among them is learning impulse control so he doesn’t do further harm to his body and his relationships. It’s one thing to feel passion for a sport, but he is creating a situation where he doesn’t enjoy it. What you have described is not normal, or healthy. He has crossed the line and is risking harm to his family, his relationships and his reputation. This is beyond “kooky”— it’s a little bit sick, and the person who needs to step in is you.

players walk through alleys in Taylor. Thomas’ grandfather, Myron, can be heard yelling, “Hiya, Coach. How ya feeling?” “We don’t have any recordings of my grandfather, but it’s a little memory of him and his only line,” Thomas said. Crews transformed backyards and alleys, building temporary swimming pools, removing speed bumps and more, Thomas said. Witnessing the experience behind the scenes turned Thomas, 37, into a lifelong film fan. “That summer, it was like we were in Hollywood,” Thomas said. “For the longest time, I wanted to go to film school because of that sum-

mer.” Edits that seamlessly moved the actors from Taylor to West Scranton were like magic to a kid as he recalled many of the locations used in the film. “They took the yards that we played in, and all of a sudden it became a movie set.” A neighbor’s home is the predominant setting for the second half of the film, and basketball court scenes were shot in “The Dungeon” of the former Taylor High School, which Thomas said has since been condemned and burned down. “It was the only gym in the area that still fit the genre,

Thomas earned a bachelor of communications degree from Mansfield University and has since appeared in a small collection of short films, pitched a show to Comedy Central with a comedy troupe he participated in at Mansfield and now appears as rival Pounder McGuirk in the Webbased political mockumentary “The Coxton Campaign.” His pursuit of the arts all stemmed, however, from the summer of 1982. “The group of kids from the neighborhood here, we’ll still talk about that summer.”

John Schugard portrays Theo Van Gogh, the brother of artist Vincent Van Gogh, in the one-man play called â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Vincent,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; set for next weekend at Canteen 900 in Forty Fort.

Theo. The play, which Schugard originally performed about a decade ago at the Everhart Museum in Scranton, has helped the actor develop an appreciation for Van Goghâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work. And, if any audience members arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t familiar with Van Goghâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s paintings before they see the show, they will be afterward, thanks to a multimedia presentation that is part of the production. The dinner Canteen 900 will serve in conjunction with the play also celebrates some of the artistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s well-known paintings, from â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sunflowersâ&#x20AC;? to â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Potato Eaters.â&#x20AC;? The planned menu starts with

paprika, partnered with sweet potato fries. Admission to dinner and the show is $45; show-only is $12. The performance is ideal for Canteen 900â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s intimate, bistrolike setting, said Donna Vojtek, who is directing the show. One thing she expects audiences will realize, as they listen to Theo Van Gogh offer insight into his brotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life, is that the artistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unusual behavior wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t due to insanity. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;It was a physical thing,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;He had epilepsy.â&#x20AC;?

As Lovano put it, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s living in the world of music in a creative way, absorbing everything around her, and putting ideas together from her natural

feelings.â&#x20AC;? Her own recordings are a potpourri of idioms, ideas, fusions. When she hits on all cylinders, like her up-tempo, 5/4 reinvention of the evergreen â&#x20AC;&#x153;Body and Soulâ&#x20AC;? that she sings in Spanish, the effect is exhilarating.

Spalding, who grew up in a single-parent home, discovered her calling at age 4 after seeing cellist Yo-Yo Ma on â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mister Rogersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Neighborhood.â&#x20AC;? She took up the violin and before long joined a community orchestra. Around age 14, she picked up the bass, falling in love not only with the instrument but also the possibilities. She started playing blues, funk, jazz, hip-hop and pop and writing and singing her own songs. She sped through studies at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, becoming an instructor at the school at age 20. In school, she ended up in a small ensemble class led by veteran tenor saxophonist Joe Lovano, one of the leading figures in jazz, with whom she still works and records. Lovanoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spontaneous aesthetic creates a challenging environment for his sidemen, but Spalding was a natural. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She contributed immediately to the flow of the music and contributed ideas melodically within the rhythm section, which is rare for a young player,â&#x20AC;? Lovano said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She played with ideas and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just play off the page.â&#x20AC;? What was most memorable about Spaldingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s appearances with Lovanoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s post-bop quartet â&#x20AC;&#x201D; aside from the fact that her thin frame practically disappeared behind her bass â&#x20AC;&#x201D; was the bell-like clarity of her sound and an intuitive approach to counterpoint that had her dancing with the rest of the group. Her playing was raw but full of promise. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always been confident enough to use my voice openly and freely and trusting that I would hopefully know what to do with other people,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Of course, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m speaking of myself as a 19-year-old and I was probably missing 90 percent of what was going on.

Time travel puts today into better perspective

By MIKE HOUSEHOLDER Associated Press

“Back to Our Future: How the 1980s Explain the World We Live in Now — Our Culture, Our Politics, Our Everything” (Ballantine Books), by David Sirota

Ah, the 1980s. Those carefree years spent spinning the gears of Rubik’s Cubes, popping Pac-Man cartridges into Atari consoles, slipping on legwarmers or parachute pants and checking out the latest episodes of “Family Ties,” “Diff’rent Strokes” or “Knight Rider.” That’s one remembrance. Here’s David Sirota’s: Those carefree years spent sitting idly and naively by as a cabal of ill-willed corporate leviathans and backward-looking governmental decision-makers put their stamp on a society whose seemingly innocuous, kitschy pop culture masked a me-first, militaristic outlook that is having negative ramifications in the 21st century. Whatchoo talkin’ ’bout, Sirota? It’s an oversimplification of Sirota’s thesis, but the journalist and radio host’s book, “Back to Our Future: How the 1980s Explain the World We Live in Now — Our Culture, Our Politics, Our Everything,” is indeed about what he sees as a return to 1980sstyle themes and mindset in today’s society. Look no further, Sirota says, than the “greed is good” ethos of “Wall Street” villain Gordon Gekko playing itself out in the massive swindle by Bernie Madoff. Or, he says, witness President George W. Bush swooping down on an aircraft carrier “Top Gun”style to proclaim victory in his dogfight against a squadron of Soviet warplanes — er — the Iraqi army. “Now today, almost every major cultural touchstone is rooted in the 1980s — whether obviously or subtly,” Sirota writes. “Back to Our Future” is

“Afraid of the Dark,” by James Grippando; Harper (416 pages, $25.99)

Mystery writers often use current events to add realism to their novels. Coral Gables, Fla., author James Grippando has been part of this trend for years and his approach especially is evident in “Afraid of the Dark.” Grippando’s 17th novel touches on terrorists, the treatment of political prisoners, cyber security,

the war in Iraq and even teenage sexting. It’s a heady brew of plot points, but Grippando skillfully balances each tendril. “Afraid of the Dark” never feels weighty or overwrought because Grippando keeps the focus on his very believable characters. “Afraid of the Dark” brings back Miami defense attorney Jack Swyteck, whose latest case snowballs. Working pro bono, Jack has been appointedlawyerforayoungSomalimanwhoisjailedinGuantanamo, accused of being a terrorist. During

their first meeting, Jack learns that the man also is known as Jamal Wakefield, suspected of killing his 16year-old ex-girlfriend, McKenna Mays, and blowing up her Coconut Grove home three years before. Jamal maintains his innocence claiming that he had been kidnapped by a government agency and was being interrogated overseas at the time of the murder. But no one believes his story, least of all McKenna’s vengeful father Chuck Mays. Grippando powerfully weaves “Afraid of the Dark” into a

noir look at the fears that seep into each corner of society. Jack proves himself to be a man of action, but Grippando is careful to keep each of Jack’s decisions realistic. Jack undergoes tremendous losses and changesduring“AfraidoftheDark,” which add to the suspense. To say more would spoil the myriad twists that Grippando deftly adds to this multi-layered plot. Grippando has proven his skills with edge-of-your-seat thrillers. “Afraid of the Dark” may be his most gripping novel.

thought-provoking and worth reading — if, that is, you’re willing to suspend a little disbelief. Let’s say for the sake of argument that the 1980s are making a comeback. How, then, is that any different than the 1970s channeling their inner ’50s in the form of “Happy Days,” “Grease” or Richard Nixon? American culture is cyclical, and history tends to repeat itself regardless of place. Of course, the events and attitudes of the 1980s are having an impact in 2011. The same could be said about the 1960s, 1970s or 1990s, for that matter. Still, Sirota’s book is a fun, engaging read if not taken too seriously. After all, the guy spends paragraphs wondering why average citizens could track down “The A-Team,” yet the U.S. Army couldn’t, and debating the merits of the Statue of Liberty-as-movable-object ending of “Ghostbusters II.” As the noted ’80s historian Ferris Bueller once said, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” Or, in Sirota’s worldview, even if you missed the 1980s the first time around, you’ll see them now virtually everywhere you look.

here are many reasons to celebrate this year’s centenary of Elizabeth Bishop’s birth, not least of which is the enduring power of her writing and that she led by and large a productive and happy life. She was a survivor and a fierce defender of her own work. Yes, her childhood was rocky; yes, her death at age 68 in 1979 was untimely, but it was from a cerebral aneurysm — not by her own hand. Still, one also thinks of Sylvia Plath and Anne Sexton, fellow poets, all well-educated women who were writing in the sphere of Harvard and the New Yorker in an old-boy era that was hard on female writers. The ceiling contained not salaries but posterity; it was low, and it was made of iron, not glass. It helped a great deal that Bishop spent much of her career under the protective wing of the New Yorker. It helped that she was independently wealthy — Bishop inherited enough money from her father, who died of Bright’s disease when she was just 8 months old, to allow her to travel extensively and own homes in Key West and Maine. It may have helped that she was widely honored: a Pulitzer Prize, a National Book Award, a National Book Critics Circle Award, a Guggenheim fellowship, and the list goes on. It may have helped (in terms of a willingness to resist the cultural undertow) that she was gay, although this is rarely mentioned (certainly never by Bishop herself). It may have helped that she was not a confessional poet. No, her work has an airy dispassion to it: Something blows through the words — call it dignity, an eternal echo, details unencumbered by a clinging personality. Three new volumes — “Prose,” “Poems” and “Elizabeth Bishop and the New Yorker” — offer an unparalleled opportunity for complete immersion in Bishop’s work. While most of the poems, beginning with “Cirque d’Hiver,” were published in the New Yorker, the prose pieces — stories, essays, reviews, tributes and travel pieces — were scattered in a variety of places. Some of Bishop’s stories, such as “The Village,” barely conceal aspects of her own childhood in Nova

Scotia and Massachusetts. After Bishop’s father died, her mother suffered a severe mental breakdown, and Bishop was sent from Nova Scotia to live with her paternal grandparents in Massachusetts. Bishop tells this and other stories from her past in a generous, unsentimental way that allows the reader to better share her memories. In poetry and prose, she shows us her lifelong fascination with observation that uses all the senses and an unmistakable rhythm. “About a week ago there came a certain evening,” Bishop writes in the short essay “A Mouse and Mice,” “with a particularly long and quiet twilight — a dove-colored twilight, filled with shadow and the smoke of burning leaves.” We turn to the letters for special insight into Bishop — and while they reveal much about her craft, there is little of the unifying principle. Bishop lived in New York, Boston, Brazil (for almost two decades), San Francisco, Washington, D.C., and many other places. Her letters to the New Yorker, as with so many writers of these generations, were lifelines. There is a lot of sheepish backand-forth about money, frustration over long periods between submission and publication, discussion of punctuation and complaints. In the letters, one feels the natural aristocracy of the writer — a confidence about her worth that only grows as she gets older. Some of this confidence Bishop learned from the poet Marianne Moore, whom Bishop was introduced to by a librarian at Vassar (a niece of Lizzie Borden’s!). Their friendship lasted 35 years: “Efforts of Affection: A Memoir of Marianne Moore,” is included in “Prose.” Moore convinced Bishop that writing was worth doing right or not at all — that finding and sticking to one’s voice was of paramount importance. Over decades and across oceans, the poets discussed meter, technique and the importance of determination. What emerges from this bounty is that Bishop was working on something greater than herself, greater than any search for identity. What her work offers, beyond grace, is insight — particularly into beauty and strength.

Three new reads that will leave you breathless By SUSAN SALTER REYNOLDS Los Angeles Times

to do with the party line. One morning, many decades later, a stranger appears at the shop — a young woman named Maggie, born in Vietnam but raised in America, who has come back to look for clues to her father’s disappearance after his escape from the camps. Camilla Gibb drapes her story over good strong bones — characters (including the grandson of a poet friend of Hung’s) that span several generations, the nobility of the artists in contrast to the war and its political players. But the true beauty of the novel radiates from the details — the smell of the soup, the feeling of the earlymorning streets, the sense of community in poverty and the community woven by memories. “But what’s the real Vietnam?” Maggie asks the grandson of the poet. “This is a country that erases its own history.” •••

“The Beauty of Humanity Movement,” by Camilla Gibb; Penguin Press (312 pages, $25.95) It begins and ends with pho — in a noodle shop in Old Hanoi. Old man Hung is a true professional — his delicious soup is a metaphor for a dying way of life. Each morning, he spoons the broth for customers, a broth that depends on his longstanding relationships with local butchers. He remembers the days back in the ’50s when his shop was a gathering place for dissident artists, until many of them “Day of the Oprichnik,” by Vlawere taken to reeducation camps where they formed the Beauty of dimir Sorokin, translated from Humanity Movement, celebrat- the Russian by Jamey Gambrell; ing poetry and art that had little Farrar, Straus & Giroux (194 pag-

es, $23) Let’s just say that when we react to self-indulgent bureaucrats eating blini and driving Mercedes in the political future, it tends to be that dark laughter that rolls off the precipice of fear. “Day of the Oprichnik” is set in Russia in 2028. It follows a day in the life of Andrei Danilovich Komiaga, a character reminiscent of Tony Stark (played by Robert Downey Jr.) in “Iron Man” (before his revelation) or the hedonistic Oblonsky in “Anna Karenina.” Komiaga is a member of the secret police — on any given day he rounds up the orphaned children of murdered nobles, squeezes his constituency for bribes, maybe even murders a dissident or two. With his finger-lickin’, luxury-lovin’ persona, he’s a bit of a caricature. “Health isn’t the least

thing in our dangerous life,” he earnestly tells the reader. “I take care of mine: I play skittles twice a week, then I swim, I drink maple juice with ground wild strawberries, I eat overgrown fern seeds, I breathe properly.” The height of Komiaga’s day is a series of bizarre sexual rituals with his fellow secret police that involve fish and steam. Sorokin writes (here and in his recently republished “Ice Trilogy”) about the absurdities of power. “Day of the Oprichnik” is an arrow in the heart of the Russian mafia; 50 years ago it would have been aimed at the Communist Party. ••• “Fair Play,” by Tove Jansson, translated from the Swedish by Thomas Teal; New York Review Books (100 pages, $14 paper) Perhaps it’s the simplicity, the clarity of the language; maybe it’s the invocation of Finland — the sea; short, sweet, green summers — something in this novel leaves a reader feeling the natural kindness of the world, the goodness and simplicity of people, the pos-

sibility of ideas to make us happy. “Jonna had the happy ability to wake up every morning as if to a new life.” Jonna is an artist, and Mari is a writer. “There are empty spaces that must be respected,” Finnish writer and illustrator Tove Jansson (the “Moomin” children’s books) tells us in describing the relationship of the couple, “those often long periods when a person can’t see the pictures or find the words and needs to be left alone.” Can you hear the breeze blowing through the words? They talk about movies and hunting, sculpture, mothers, fog, war. They travel. They talk each other through sculptures and illustrations. “Fair Play,” in a most subtle way, describes the bare bones of a successful relationship.

passing the strange sight of red-andblackcinderconesanddarklavabeds. In addition to the paved roads, the preserve is crisscrossed with trails for off-road vehicles. Horses are welcome but not available for rental. (As the Park Service says, it’s “BYOH.”) Tours are conducted through the Mitchell Caverns. Two campgrounds are on the preserve, and roadside camping is permitted in some areas. The landscape is ancient, although the lava flows date to as little as 10,000 years ago. For a look at the much more recent past, we headed to Calico Ghost Town, which is about 15 miles northeast of Barstow. Calicowasasilver-miningtownin the1880s, complete with shacks, saloons, hardship and revelry. Its mines produced $86 million in silver and $45 million in borax, but when the price of silver fell, the town was abandoned. By1904 it was empty.

In 1951, Walter Knott (of Knott’s Berry Farm fame) restored the town and turned it into a tourist attraction. He donated it to San Bernardino County in 1966. About a third of Calico is original, and the rest is reconstructed. Visitors can touramine,takeatrainrideandexploreavarietyofshops,restaurants and historical displays. A look at the mountains surrounding the town makes the source of its name obvious: The blotches of colorful rock resemble the multicolored calico cloth so popular when the West was young. Admission to Calico Ghost Town is $6, and a campground is nearby. Our next stop was history of an even more recent vintage. The Barstow Harvey House, “Casa Del Desierto” (House of the Desert) was built in1911on the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe rail line. It was a luxurious stop deep in the desert, offering hotel rooms and food. The Harvey

he shortest distance between two people is a

A house made of bottles is among the attractions in the desert town of Calico, Calif.

House closed in 1971, long past its heyday. By the late 1980s, the building was badly deteriorated, coated with bird droppings inside and out. Looters and vandals had hauled away everything of value, but the beautyoftheSpanish-Moorishstructure still shone through. After years of debate about the building’s future, its owner announcedplanstotearitdown.That spurred preservation efforts to pull together grants and other funding. The Harvey House was reopened in 1999. Today it is an Amtrak station and houses the local Chamber of Commerce, the Mother Road Route66MuseumandtheWestern America Railroad Museum.

The traveler who wants to continue a trip through time might conclude with a tour of the Goldstone Deep Space Communications Complex for a look at the massive antennas that allow NASA to stay in touch

with spacecraft venturing billions of miles away. Goldstone is located on FortIrwin,theArmy’s NationalTraining Center, about 35 miles from Barstow. Reservations to visit must be made in advance.

LUZERNE COUNTY IN LUZERN 276242

Every Friday, Los Angelenos make a mass exodus to Las Vegas, traveling through the desert on an easy 275-mile drive up Interstate 15. Come Sunday, the caravan reverses, and they head home from a weekend at the casinos. If you’re visiting Las Vegas, why not follow their lead and include a road trip to Los Angeles in your vacation? Better yet, spend a day or more on the drive and explore the landscape in between. Although much of the California desert is sparsely populated, it’s loaded with otherworldly vistas and points of interest. You can see mountainssplashedwitharainbowofreds, pinks, oranges, purples and greens. Spiky Joshua trees stand in splendor. If you’re lucky and visit in spring after a wet winter — such as this one — the desert floor might be covered with a blanket of wildflowers. At Calico, Calif., an abandoned silver-mining town is now a county park, and in Barstow, Calif., a oncederelict railroad depot has found new life. IrecentlyflewintoLasVegasand home from Los Angeles, taking the long way during the drive between the two cities. Our first stops were in the Mojave National Preserve, which covers1.6 million acres. We were there for several hours yet saw only a small portion of the park. WeleftInterstate15atCimaRoad, two bumpy lanes that wind through the desert. We stopped to explore rock formations, then headed to the Kelso Depot Visitor Center, which was built in1924 as a railroad stop. It contains a small museum, a restaurant and an information counter loadedwithbrochures.Arangerwas on duty to answer questions. In the distance we could see the Kelso sand dunes, which are almost 700 feet high and cover 45 square miles. Hikers can walk a 3-mile trail, and visitors are invited to run down the dunes, creating what the National Park Service describes as a “singing” or “booming” sound. From Kelso, we headed north on Kelbaker Road to the town of Baker,

WE’VE ACQUIRED A NATIONAL TREASURE.

Introducing our new Washington, D.C. Bureau Chief. When it comes to reporting the news, we have the state covered. And the nation. But we’re digging even deeper by appointing Jonathan Riskind as our Washington, D.C. Bureau Chief. A longtime reporter, Jonathan has served for many years in that position at The Columbus Dispatch. So whatever’s under wraps in the Nation’s Capital, he’ll uncover it. His experience, knowledge and excellent writing have earned him dozens of prestigious awards. And now his chief responsibility is to bring Washington’s hard-hitting stories home to you. This is just one more reason there is only one Leader.
