WILKES-BARRE About 15
children were playing Monday at
the splashless Coal Street Park.
As temperatures and humidity
climbed, attendance at city parks
dropped off as kids chose to stay
in air conditioning or head to pri-
vately owned swimming pools.
As boys and girls swung on
swings and slid on sliding
boards, the site of the citys soon-
to-open splash pad sat idle. A
fence has been erected around
the site to keep children and
adults fromfalling into the 6-foot
hole that awaits a new vault for
the pad.
A splash pad would be great
in this weather, said Maria Ko-
rona of Wilkes-Barre. The kids
would be able to cool off. The
city has done a great jobwiththis

One of the

was filed by for-

made by Flood on a November
2002 radio program.
This libel suit is scheduled for
jury trial at10a.m. onSept. 26be-

according to court records.
NewJerseyattorneyCraigHill-

and Wyomissing attorney Ken-
neth A. Goodman, who repre-
sents Flood, couldnot be reached
for comment Monday on what, if
any, impact Floods death will
have on the proceeding.
Flood, 67, of Dorrance Town-
ship, died Saturday afternoon af-
ter suffering a second stroke.
Kingston attorney Joseph Gio-
vannini, who is assisting Hilliard,
said Monday he believes the trial
will proceed as planned because
an oral deposition of Flood under

HANOVER TWP. Hanover
Area School Board is considering
going green with a solar array on
a small hill outside the high
school that, accordingtoonecon-
sultant who talked at a work ses-
sion Monday, could be built at no
cost or risk to the district.
Jane Heiple of Lyceum Group
Inc. told the board an array could
be built through a power pur-
chase agreement. Aninvestor or
companywouldpayconstruction
andmaintenance costs, while the
district bought the power at a
guaranteed rate for a set number
of years, typically 15 to 20.
If done right, Heiple said, the
contract assures a lower rate than
the district is payingnow, andthe
rate rises more slowly than what
commercial providers charge, so
savings grow over time. Heiple
said the average increase of elec-
tricity charges was about 5 per-
cent per year while the business
was heavily regulated, but that
since government deregulation
took hold, some are projecting
cost increases to hit 30 percent
annually.
Heiple said Power Purchase
Agreements are particularly at-
tractive to companies right now
because the federal government
offers tax credits and grants that
can cover up to 50 percent of the
cost. She noted a key incentive,
which covers about 30 percent of
cost, is set toexpire inDecember.
Stressing that all estimates are
rough guesses until a company
comes in and does more rigorous
engineering research, Heiple
said it looks as though the field
where the array would be located
could produce about 320 kilo-
watts. Neither she nor district of-
ficials knew how much the dis-
trict currently uses, but Heiple
said that would be below the
maximum need.
If the district opted to build
such an array on its own, Heiple
said a rough cost estimate would
be between $1.2 million to $1.5
million. But building it through a
purchase power agreement
means the company contracted
would assume all risks and re-
sponsibilities, including mainte-
nance. The district would simply
buy the power at the pre-set
rates.
The board could negotiate op-
tions at the end of the contract,
such as having an option to buy
the array or have the company
come and remove it.
The board took no action, but
members generally voiced sup-
port for drawing up and publiciz-
ing a request for proposals that
would invite companies to offer
costs and contract terms for a
power purchase agreement. The
board would either have to call a
special meeting to vote on doing
that or wait until its regular Au-
gust meeting.

The school district could buy
power at a lower rate, a
consultant says.

LEHMAN TWP. -- The board
of supervisors announced
Monday that the township re-
ceived a compliance notice
from the Luzerne County Con-
servation District regarding
the way in which the township
has been clearing the berm of
the roads.
On July 13, representatives
from the district inspected the
berms and noted the township
failed to provide effective ero-
sion and sedimentation con-
trols. Chairman Dave Sutton
said the district is cracking
down on all municipalities and
is requiring corrective mea-
sures that arent practical and
are dangerous.
Sutton said the district is re-
quiring the township to put up
silt fences or line the berms
with hay bales, which he said
would pose a risk to motorists.
Township crews have been
clearing the berms to help con-
trol runoff and flooding for the
past several weeks on several
township roads. He said the
board plans to discuss the mat-
ter with the district.
Well try to explain that
what theyre asking us to do
isnt practical, he said. It
could cause a real safety is-
sue.
Supervisor Doug Ide said
crews from drilling company
Encana are working to reclaim
the exploratory natural gas
well pad at the Salansky site on
Zosh Road in Lake Township.
Once the company finishes the
work and truck traffic is gone
from the area, the company
will begin to repair the roads it
damaged. The affected roads
are Outlet, Meeker, Meeker-
Outlet, Slocum and Ide roads.
The board opened bids for
construction of a new roof for
the municipal building. Only
two bids were received which
were from out-of-town contrac-
tors. Ark Builders Corp., of Al-
lentown presented a bid of
$37,730 and Spotts Brothers
Inc., of Schuylkill Haven, sent
in a bid in for $21,460. No local
firms sent proposals for the
job, despite advertising in The
Times Leader and The Citi-
zens Voice newspapers on two
occasions, said Treasurer Al
Cragle. The township engineer
will review the bids and make a
recommendation.
In other business, the board
granted temporary permits to:

SALEM TWP. The town-
ship supervisors and the plan-
ning commission are examining
a proposed townhouse project
that might be scheduled for con-
struction in 2012 on a tract of
landformerly knownas the Bow-
er farm off Bomboy Lane.
It has been named The Salem
Township Project.
Marr Rentals LLC of Blooms-
burg has submitted a plan for 32
units intended, according to in-
formation provided at a public
hearing in May, for people 55
years old and older. Kristan
Mertz, rental administrator for
Marr LLC, said on Monday that
the proposed project has met
with initial adverse reaction
from residents on East 7th, 8th,
9th and 9th streets and an
amended plan has been pre-
pared by S.M. Design Architects
of Wilkes-Barre.
The amended plan must still
be submitted to and approved by
township officials.
Mertz said the hearing attract-
ed a capacity crowd, and for the
most part, objection was raised
about traffic, although concern
was raised about the units being
rented to people other than
Marrs stated clientele. Original-
ly she said ingress and egress
was designed for East 9th Street,
but has since been changed to
Luzerne Avenue.
It was said that part of the mo-
tivation for the proposed project
is a demographic study that sug-
gests that there is a high number
of seniors in the Berwick-Salem
area who are in need of such
rental housing and, in addition,
there are prospects of a third
unit being constructed at PPLs
Susquehanna Steam Electric
Station.
According to plans presented
to township officials, the intent
is for one- and two-bedroom
apartments designedfor individ-
uals and couples, not families.
Each unit, Mertz said, will be
one floor with an attached ga-
rage. She said rental rates will be
between $750 and $950 per
month.

SCRANTON A Catholic
priest has been removed from
ministering as pastor of St.
Michael the Archangel parish
pending the outcome of an in-
vestigation into his allegedly
providing alcohol to a minor.
According to a statement re-
leased by the Diocese of
Scranton, diocesan officials
were informed on Sunday that
the Rev. Michael OLeary, a
member of the Priestly Frater-
nity of St. Peter, allegedly fur-
nished alcohol to two individ-
uals, including an underage
young adult and a minor.
The Priestly Fraternity of
St. Peter is a Clerical Society
of Apostolic Life in the
Church, established by Pope
John Paul II in 1988 to offer
the Traditional Latin Rite of
the Mass and the sacraments
to the faithful.
At the time the incident was
reported, OLeary was serving
as pastor at St. Michaels in
Scranton, where Masses are
offered in the Traditional La-
tin Rite. He has served in that
capacity since January 2010.
Diocesan officials have spo-
ken with the parents of the
two individuals and reported
the matter to law enforce-
ment. The incident was also
reported to the appropriate
superiors from the Fraternity
of St. Peter.
OLeary has been removed
from ministry and from St. Mi-
chaels Parish pending the out-
come of the investigation.
Diocesan officials remain
committed to fully cooperat-
ing with law enforcement in
the investigation, the state-
ment said.
The Rev. Eric Flood, North
American District Superior
for the Priestly Fraternity of
St. Peter, could not be reached
for comment on Monday.
A supervisor with Scranton
police did not immediately re-
turn a message Monday seek-
ing more information.
According to the diocese
website, OLeary was or-
dained in 1993. He had been
residing at St. Michaels Rec-
tory, 1703 Jackson St., Scran-
ton.

PHILADELPHIA
Cardinal Rigali resigns
P
ope Benedict XVI has accepted
the resignation of Philadelphia
Archbishop Cardinal Justin Rigali
and will name a replacement as early
as today, according
to a published re-
port.
Michael Sean
Winters, of the
National Catholic
Reporter, indicated
the move could
come as early as
this week. The
region includes the Diocese of Scran-
ton.
Church law mandated that Rigali
submit his resignation on turning 75,
which he did earlier this year. But it
was not known if the Vatican would
accept it.
Rigali is the head of the Arch-
diocese of Philadelphia, which has
been rocked with recent revelations
of child abuse at area churches.
A grand jury report issued in Feb-
ruary determined the archdiocese
did not follow its own procedures
when clergy members were suspect-
ed or found to have abused children.
The grand jury criticized the arch-
diocese for leaving priests suspected
of abuse in ministerial positions.
Three priests and a teacher were
charged this year by the grand jury
with rape of children. A monsignor
in the archdiocese was also charged
with endangering children by trans-
ferring the suspected priests.

ternational Airport will hold a live
major aircraft accident response
exercise on Saturday morning start-
ing at 8:30.
The drill will involve airport fire-

Teens go to Honors Camp
Blake Donovan of Shavertown and
Reid Skiro of Plains Township are
among a group of 48 teenagers from
across Pennsylvania at the State
Police Academy in Hershey this
week learning about state police
operations and government through
the annual Commissioners Honors

The cadets, age 13-18, were select-
ed from among more than 1,500 boys
and girls who participated in local
Camp Cadet programs last summer.

WILKES-BARRE Louise
Olenik thought Monday would
bring some closure to a year-
old case in which her niece was
scheduled to plead guilty to
taking $107,000 from the 79-
year-old.
But now, Olenik, who had to
put her home up for sale and
sell all her belongings, has to
wait another two months, after
her nieces attorney on Mon-
day asked for a continuance in
scheduled proceedings.
Oleniks niece, Marisa Har-
len, was scheduled to enter a
guilty plea to one felony count
of receiving stolen property af-
ter police said she began tak-
ing the money after assuming
Oleniks power of attorney.
Harlen, 29, of Kingston, who
was charged in September,
said in November at a court ap-
pearance that she intends on
paying back the money to her
aunt and will plead guilty be-
cause of a gambling addiction.
Shes waiting for me to die,
Olenik said Monday. Thats
what shes doing. That was my
first thought.
Olenik said Monday shortly
after hearing the proceeding
had been rescheduled to Sep-
tember that she thought some
closure would come, but now
she has to wait even longer.
When reached Monday by
telephone, a secretary for at-
torney Joseph Yeager, when
asked about Mondays contin-
uance, said no comment.
Im so furious, I cant even
speak. Ill make it and shell
spend her time in jail, Olenik
said.
Oleniks home nurse, Mi-
chelle ONeill, said Olenik be-
gan to cry after being told
about the September court
date.
Its gonna be a bad day,
Olenik said Monday. But, to-
morrow will be better.
Most of Oleniks belongings
were sold last weekend in an
estate sale at her Sondra
Drive, Larksville, home. There
is also a buyer for the house
that was listed for sale in Janu-
ary for $230,000.
Olenik said she put her
home and belongings on the
market because she is no long-
er able to afford the house and
the 24-hour at-home nurses
aid she requires.
Olenik said she and her hus-
band, Edward, who died in De-
cember, worked their entire
lives -- he as a carpenter, plum-
ber and mechanic and she as a
government employee.
They saved their money and
eight years ago bought the
Sondra Drive house where
they planned to live the rest of
their lives.
Olenik is now temporarily
staying at her brothers Har-
veys Lake home until she can
move in with another relative
in Tunkhannock.

WILKES-BARRE The city has filed
another appeal of a court ruling that
scuttled its efforts to recoup part of a
$500,000 settlement paid to a police of-
ficer who was injured when his cruiser
was struck by another vehicle.
The appeal, filed in the case of officer
George Cole, is the latest in a long, con-
voluted legal battle the city has waged
relating to access to assets that remain
in Coles bankruptcy estate.
Legal fees associated with the court
battle have cost the city $78,000 as of
June, according to copies of invoices ob-
tainedthrougha Right toKnowrequest.
The decision to file a new appeal was
criticized by Coles attorney, Paul Perl-
stein, who contends it is pointless as the
city has no legal basis to continue the
legal fight.
The case focuses on the citys right to
attach a $500,000 settlement Cole re-
ceived from the driver of the other car
involved in a 1996 collision with his po-
lice cruiser. Cole never received the
money, which has been held in escrow
by the trustee appointed to oversee the
bankruptcy filing Cole made in 2007.
The city has been attempting to ac-
cess that money to recoup part of the
$450,000 in Heart and Lung benefits it
paid Cole, who was off the job for nine
years before returning to work in 2005.
Pennsylvania law allows an employer
to attach workers compensation bene-
fits if an employee recovers money from
the third party who caused the injury.
There has been a dispute over whether
that same provision applies to Heart
and Lung benefits, which are similar to
workers compensation.
In 2009, the Third Circuit Court of
Appeals ruled Heart and Lung and
workers compensation were essentially
the same, therefore city was entitled to
seek the money. But that decision was
negated in May by a ruling issued by
U.S. District Judge James Munley.
Munleys decision was based on a
state Supreme Court ruling issued in Ja-
nuary that said Heart and Lung benefits
are not subject to attachment. The city
had argued that ruling should not apply
to Coles case because it was issuedafter
Third Circuit decision.
But Munley, citing a previous U.S. Su-
preme Court rulinginanother case, said
federal law states that he must base his
decision on the state law that was in ef-
fect at the time the federal case was be-
ing reviewed.
Coles case, which had been returned
to Munley for a ruling in a separate mat-
ter bythe ThirdCircuit Court, remained
active. That meant the January ruling
by the state Supreme Court did apply to
Coles case, Munley said.
The city appealed Munleys latest rul-
ing to the Third Circuit Court in June.
Perlstein said the city continues to ar-
gue Munley did not have authority to
negate the Third Circuits ruling, but
has failed to cite any case law support-
ing its position. The U.S. Supreme
Court ruling is irrefutable, he said,
therefore he believes any further ap-
peals are pointless.
In a prepared statement released by
the city, Thomas MacNeely, the citys at-
torney, said he is confident the city will
prevail in the latest appeal. MacNeely
said the case is important to the city be-
cause it will set a precedent that could
affect future cases.
Far fromwastingthe taxpayers mon-
ey, the city is acting in the best interests
of its taxpayers by not only asserting its
rights to the funds that are at issue in
this case, but also by protecting its
rights in similar cases that may arise in
the future, MacNeely said.
Perlstein disputed that. He said all fu-
ture cases involving Heart and Lung
benefits will be ruled upon based on the
precedent set by the January ruling is-
sued by the state Supreme Court. Coles
case will have no bearing.
I understand they dont like losing,
but I dont know what the basis of their
appeal is, Perlstein said.
W-B again appeals ruling it cant claim officers cash
The long-running case grows out of
a 1996 collision involving a police
officer and his settlement money.

Some of these symbols combined
withother factors suchas certaintypes of

agents withtheFederal Bureauof Investi-

gave a gang awareness presentation to
more than 50 area parents, residents and
members of law enforcement Monday at
the borough municipal building.
Sponsored by the Duryea Neighbor-
hoodCrime Watchandthe Duryea Police
Department, the presentationwas aimed
at educating residents about gangs so
they could help police if signs of gangs
appear, said crime watch representative
Trina Moss.
Duryea Police Chief Nick Lohman said
he didnt think Duryea has a gang prob-
lem, but hewants residents tobeawareof
signs of gangs in case they do crop up.
Were directly in the middle between
Scranton and Wilkes-Barre and there are
a lot of drug arrests on Main Street.
(Drug traffickers) think if they stay off
the Interstate and take side roads, they
can avoid state police. So we want to
make our officers aware of the gang pres-
ence in the area, as well as officers from
other communities, Lohman said.

WILKES-BARRE City coun-
cil canexpect tobeobservedat its
next meeting.
According to Mary Catherine
Roper, staff attorneyfor theAmer-
ican Civil Liberties Union Penn-
sylvania office, the organizationis
looking for a volunteer among its
active membership to attend the
next council meeting. Council is
scheduledtomeet inworksession
Aug. 9andinregular sessionAug.
11.
Our volunteer wont engage in
any question-and-answer ses-
sion. Roper said. He (or) she
will be there just to be our eyes
andears andreport backtoour of-
fice.
Roper responded to e-mails
from Mark Robbins, the Forty
Fort manwhospokeat last weeks
council meeting alleging a kick-
back and bribery scheme among
the citys contracted towing com-
pany, LAG Towing, Mayor Tom
Leighton and the citys police
chief. Robbins contends he was
overcharged for the tow. He also
took exception to the way he and
other people, such as Bob Kadlu-
boski, the citys former towing
contractor, are treated at council
meetings.
When contacted Monday,
Roper said she will write a letter
to city council regarding com-
plaints she has received.
The letter will be a lecture on
groundrules, Roper said. Hope-
fully, theywill get theletter before
they enact newrules.
Council Chairwoman Kathy
Kane is proposing changes to the
protocol for public input at coun-
cil meetings. She said she is con-
cernedaboutthedecorum, orlack
of it, at recent meetings. Kanesaid
she has asked the city attorney to
offer language for a resolution
that would call for possible sanc-
tions or penalties for people who
show a pattern of disruptive be-
havior at meetings.
You cant require people to act
with decorum, Roper said of
Kanes idea. Adversarial condi-
tions are never productive, but
people including those holding
elective office are protected by
the First Amendment.
Ropersaidtimelimitsonpublic
comment are common with most
public entities.
There are norules that require
elected officials to respond at all
topubliccomment orthat theylis-
tenattentively,shesaid. Theon-
ly requirement is that they allow
the public to speak.
Melissa Melewsky, media law
counsel for the Pennsylvania
Newspaper Association, said the
Sunshine Act contains guidelines
for the way public meetings
should be conducted.
Five minutes seems to the
common time for public input,
she said. But there should be
some flexibility. If a person needs
more time to air their concerns,
depending on the circumstances,
additional time should be grant-
ed. A stopwatch type of adminis-
trationof that typeof policycanbe
problematic.
Roper said a person addressing
council should not be cut off be-
causeof what heor shechooses to
talk about, unless its completely
unrelated to council business.
She also talked about the issue of
name calling at meetings.
Kadluboski was called cup-
cake byKaneandbyLeightonon
separate occasions.
I am sorry if the gentleman is
insulted by being called a cup-
cake, but thatsnot alegal matter,
Roper said.

PITTSBURGH A western
Pennsylvania woman filed a law-
suit claiming that local officials
improperly seized her newborn
son after a positive drug test re-
sulted from her having eaten sal-
ad dressing containing poppy
seeds.
The lawsuit is the second in a
year accusing Lawrence County
Children and Youth Services and
Jameson Hospital of improperly
taking a newborn because of
flawed drug testing.
Eileen Ann Bower, a Lawrence
County resident whose residence
and age were not provided, gave
birth to a son, Brandon, on July
13, 2009, according to a com-
plaint filed Friday. She had re-
ceived prenatal care and passed
every drug test, and was stunned
when a blood test at Jameson
Hospital came back positive for
opiates, according to the lawsuit.
Her son was taken into foster
care three days after birth and re-
turned 75 days later, according to
the complaint, a copy of which
was obtained by The Associated
Press.
Bower saidshe hadeatena pas-
ta salad made with Salad Su-
preme dressing withpoppy seeds
immediately before going into la-
bor. She is suing the county agen-
cy, a caseworker and Jameson
Health Systemfor negligence, in-
vasion of privacy and violation of
due process.
Messages left by The Associat-
ed Press for Lawrence County
Children and Youth Services Di-
rector Jane Gajda and for Jame-
son Hospital were not immedi-
ately returned Monday.
Litigation in a similar lawsuit
filed by another mother last year
is ongoing.

TRIPOLI, LIBYA
Report: Meeting with U.S.
The Libyan government spokesman
said Monday that representatives of
Moammar Gadhafis embattled govern-
ment held face-to-face talks with U.S.
officials on repairing ties between the
nations.
There was no independent confirma-
tion that such a meeting took place and
the United States has been a strident
opponent of Gadhafis government
throughout the civil war with rebel
forces based in the east of the country.
Spokesman Moussa Ibrahim told
reporters in Tripoli that the purported
talks were held Saturday but he refused
to say where or which officials took
part.

Police: Bus tire blew out
A tour bus likely had a front tire
blowout just before it veered off a high-

spokesman said Monday.
The driver of the Niagara Falls-
bound bus, which was carrying Indian
nationals from Washington, D.C., lost
control Sunday and ran off Interstate
390 into woods near Avoca, 55 miles
south of Rochester.
The bus driver, 58-year-old John
Dinardo Jr., had no history of driving
violations or criminal activity and his
logbook was in order, New York State
Police Superintendent Joseph DAmico
said.
There is no evidence of any excess
speed, of any alcohol, of any driver
fatigue or of any other violation,
DAmico said.

KABUL A new U.S. com-
mander, Gen. John Allen, for-
mally took control of the war
in Afghanistan on Monday, in-
heriting a nearly decadelong
conflict that has cost the lives
of at least 1,668 American
troops.
Allen succeeds Gen. David
H. Petraeus, who is leaving to
head the CIA. Petraeus had
been in command for only a
year, hastily taking the helm
after President Barack Obama
forced out Gen. Stanley
McChrystal after Rolling
Stone magazine reported in-
temperate comments by his
staff about the administra-
tions civilian leadership.
Petraeus tenure coincided
with the arrival of a surge of
U.S. troops, and the military
said the extra manpower
yielded battlefield dividends,
particularly in Afghanistans
south. But senior command-
ers have described these gains
as fragile and reversible, and
some military officials have
voicedfears that the American
drawdown that began this
month will leave remaining
troops particularlyvulnerable.
Moreover, the danger level
has steadily increased for Af-
ghan civilians. The United Na-
tions reported last week that
noncombatant deaths jumped
by15 percent inthe first half of
the year. Insurgents were
blamed for four-fifths of those
fatalities, but many Afghans
lay the responsibility for the
growing danger of daily life at
the doorstep of foreign troops.
Allen takes command at a
time when many U.S. lawmak-
ers are looking for ways to cur-
tail the U.S. presence in Af-
ghanistanandNATOallies are
looking for ways to scale back
their presence. Afghan troops
aretakingsecuritycontrol this
month of seven cities or areas,
a process that began this week
with the formal transfer of re-
sponsibility in Bamiyan, one
of Afghanistans safest prov-
inces.

WASHINGTON Baby
boomers say their biggest health
fear is cancer. Given their wais-
tlines, heart disease and diabetes
should be atop that list, too.
Boomers are more obese than
other generations, a new poll
finds, setting them up for un-
healthy senior years.
And for all the talk of 60 is the
new 50 and active aging, even
those who
arent obese
need to do
more to stay fit,
according to
the Associated
Press-Life-
GoesStrong-
.com poll.
Most baby
boomers say
they get some
aerobic exercise, the kind that
revs up your heart rate, at least
once a week. But most adults are
supposed to get 2
1
2 hours a week
of moderate-intensity aerobic ac-
tivitythings likea briskwalk, a
dance class, pushinga lawnmow-
er. Only about a quarter of boom-
ers polled report working up a
sweat four or five times a week.
Worse, 37 percent never doany
of the strengthtrainingneededto
fight the muscle loss that comes
with aging.
Walking is their most frequent
formof exercise. The good news:
Walk enough and the benefits
add up.
Based on calculation of body
mass index from self-reported
height and weight, roughly a
third of the baby boomers polled
are obese, comparedwithabout a
quarter of both older and young-
er responders. Only half of the
obese boomers say they are regu-
larly exercising.
An additional 36 percent of
boomers are overweight, though
not obese.
The nation has been bracing
for a surge in Medicare costs as
the 77 million baby boomers, the
post-war generation born from
1946 to 1964, begin turning 65.
Obesity with its extra risk of
heart disease, diabetes, high
blood pressure and arthritis
will further fuel those bills.
Theyre going to be expensive
if they dont get their act togeth-
er, said Jeff Levi of the nonprofit
Trust for Americas Health. He
points toastudythat foundMedi-
care pays 34 percent more on an

WASHINGTON With the deadline
swiftly approaching for a deal to resolve
thedebt-ceilingcrisis, thevolumeonCapi-
tol Hill is about to be cranked up to 11.
House Republicans are pushing ahead
with votes this week on a proposal backed
bychamber conservativesthat wouldraise
the debt ceiling the required $2.4 trillion
but would ultimately cap government
spendingat18percent of thenations gross
domestic product, require Congress to
pass a balanced budget each year, and
slash more than $110 billion fromthe 2012
fiscal year budget.
The measure, which may pass the
Housebyamajorityvotebut isexpectedto
go nowhere after that, is either a final, de-
fiant albeit symbolic standby House
Republicans before acceding to a compro-
mise on the debt ceiling or a formal show
of intransigence that illustrates how diffi-
cult it will be for the House to sign off on
any deal that includes President Barack
Obamas signature.
The White House Monday wasted no
time twisting the dial, with the president
threatening to veto the House bill, even
though theres little chance it can pass the
Senate.
At anyrate, it appears that withtheAug.
2 deadline for a debt-limit increase loom-
ing, things will slow down for a bit before
they speed up. Republican leaders in the
HouseandSenatehaveindicatedthat they
want tofoldintime for a floor debate inor-
der to mollify conservatives on both ends
of the Capitol, who are certain to squawk
long and hard about any final deal that
does not include the kind of significant
spending cuts they seek.
That doesnt meanbothsides have stop-
pedtalking. Senateleaders areworkingon
a budget proposal that would cut $1.5 tril-
lion, while other reports have House
Speaker John Boehner and the White
Housestill workingonsomeversionof the
grandbargain that couldwipeout $4tril-
lionor morefromthebudget over thenext
decade but wouldalso likely include some
elements of entitlement-program reform
as well as a some accord on modifying the
tax code.
Then there is the in-case-of-emergency-
break-glass optionthat was floatedbySen-
ateMinorityLeader MitchMcConnell last
week, which involves a dose of procedural
flim-flammery that would provide the
White House with a debt-ceiling increase
tostaveoff economic calamitywhilehand-
ingtheGOPsomepolitical coverbyvoting
on the record against the increases.
But the attention, at least for the next
couple of days, will fall on the House. The
proposal being offered would force federal
spending to fall below 20 percent of GDP
by 2021, which would require massive
spending cuts, likely including the Penta-
gon or entitlement programs or both.

ORLANDO, Fla. Casey
Anthonys whereabouts for her
first week of freedom were a
closely guardedsecret Monday,
known only to a select few as
she tries to start a newlife after
being acquitted of killing her
daughter. One of her lawyers
says an elaborate plan was
made to protect her from peo-
ple with the lynch-mob men-
tality.
Her options for starting a
new life could be limited by
lawsuits pending against her,
the scorn of multitudes who
think she was guilty of the kill-
ing and a criminal record from
her convictions for lying to po-
lice. She walked out of jail on
Sunday, shortly after midnight.
Her attorney Cheney Mason
told NBCs Today Show on
Monday that hes confident in
Anthonys safety, but declined
to answer questions about
where she was.
Shes gone, shes safe and
elaborate plans had to be made
to keep the people away from
her, Masonsaid. Her lifeis go-
ingtobe very difficult for a very
longtime as longas there are so
many people of the lynch-mob
mentality.
Asked about how Anthony
was paying for her fresh start,
Mason replied that many vol-
unteers have offered their help.
Her notoriety couldalso help
her earn money. Experts who
havehelpedother notorious de-
fendants through rough times
say she will have opportunities,
but it wont be easy for the 25-
year-old, who was found not
guilty of killing her 2-year-old
daughter, Caylee, but convict-
ed of lying to investigators.
In response to a question
about whether Anthony
planned to cash in on her fame,
her lead attorney, Jose Baez
told Fox News Channel late
Sunday that she has certain
rights as an individual in this
country. Attorneys planned to
handle Anthonys affairs in a
dignified manner, he said.
If she decides she wants to
speak publicly about it, shell
make that decision, he said.
Another former Anthony
lawyer, Terry Lenamon, said he
had no clue where she was
headed, and that probably only
a few people close to her knew.
Lawyer: Elaborate plans made for Casey Anthonys safety
Acquitted womans
whereabouts after jail
release are kept secret.

COURT BRIEFS
HARVEYS LAKE The Luzerne
County Republican Party will host
a charity dinner in remembrance of
longtime party member and com-
munity volunteer Jonathan Bales-
ter, who was stabbed to death in-
side his home in May.
Dave Baloga, second vice chair-
man for the local political organiza-
tion, said he got the idea for the
benefit after speaking to several of
Balesters friends, who wanted to
do something to honor his memo-
ry.
Jonathan was very adamant
about being a friend to anyone who
was in need. He was always con-
cerned about doing the work of the
Lord, Baloga said. This is a nat-
ural extension of something we can
do to remember him.
Balester, 56, was found dead in-
side his Kingston Township home
on May 27. An autopsy determined
he died of multiple stab wounds.
His death, whichhas beenruleda
homicide, remains under investiga-
tion, according to the Luzerne
County District Attorneys Office.
Baloga said he got to know Bal-
ester through his work with Wyom-
ing Valley Chapter of Pennsylva-
nians for Human Life Crisis Preg-
nancy Center. Net proceeds from
the dinner will benefit the organiza-
tion.
It was something that was very
dear and important to him. Every-
one of his friends had the same sen-
timent that this was a worthy cause
to support, Baloga said.
The dinner, a Southern-style bar-
beque, will be at 5 p.m. Aug 13 at
the Lakeside Skillet, 279 Lakeside
Drive, Harveys Lake. The dinner
will include chicken, barbequed
pulledpork, vegetables, strawberry
shortcake and iced tea.

W H AT S N E X T
WASHINGTON U.S. Rep.
Lou Barletta raised more than
$258,000 in campaign cash
during the years second quar-
ter, and the Hazleton Republi-
can soon may have a formal
opponent against whom to
spend all that money.
Democrat William Vinsko
Jr., a lawyer with his own prac-
tice and an assistant city attor-
ney for Wilkes-Barre, said
Monday in a phone interview
he plans to soon make an an-
nouncement about whether he
will challenge Barletta in 2012.
Vinsko said a decision has
been made, but would not re-
veal his plans. It appears, how-
ever, that Vinsko is poised to
make a run against Barletta.
Barletta had $229,581 on
hand as of June 30 after raising
$258,287 during the quarter,
according to his campaign fi-
nance report filed Friday. Bar-
lettas campaign committee al-
so carries a debt of about
$74,000.
The freshman Republican
defeated longtime incumbent
Paul Kanjorski last year.
Pennsylvania Republicans
will be looking to shore up
Barlettas 11th congressional
district when the post-census
lines are drawn this year, but
Democrats believe the district
will remain Democratic-lean-
ing in its makeup.
The nonpartisan, Washing-
ton-based Cook Political Re-
port as of July 14 rated Barlet-
tas district as one of 10 GOP-
held tossup seats for the
2012 campaign.
Meanwhile, U.S. Rep. Tom
Marino, R-Lycoming Town-
ship, last quarter raised con-
siderably less money than Bar-
letta. But Marino, a freshman
lawmaker who won his seat in
2010 by defeating Democrat
Chris Carney, also seems to
face less political pressure, at
this point, in his 10th congres-
sional district.
Marino raised $107,518 dur-
ing the second quarter and
had $124,913 on hand as of
June 30.
He has no announced oppo-
nent and the Cook Political
Report so far does not place
Marino on its list of compet-
itive House races for 2012.
Carney may be eyeing an-
other run, but not necessarily
against Marino, said one local
Democrat.
Depending on how lines are
drawn, Carney could run
against Barletta, setting up a
potential primary battle to
take on Barletta if Vinsko an-
nounces in the next few weeks
that he is in the race.
Carney could not be reached
for comment.
The Cook Political Report
notes that its ratings are sub-
ject to dramatic changes as
new maps are finalized in 2011
and 2012.
Vinsko may challenge Barletta in 2012
Barletta may need campaign
cash raised if Democratic
lawyer enters the race.

Times Leader Washington Bureau
NUANGOLA Borough
council acted Monday evening
to implement a $3 million bank
loan for a sanitary sewer sys-
tem that has been proposed for
construction in 2014, but at the
same was informed of the pos-
sible revocation of a $3.2 mil-
lion federal grant that is part of
$6.2 million in the overall fund-
ing for project.
Under what Council Chair-
woman Regina Plodwick called
Ordinance No. 2, council voted
6-0 to underwrite the Fulton
Bank of Lancaster loan package
that will be issued to the Nuan-
gola Sewer Authority. The sys-
tem is projected to traverse
through Rice and Dorrance
townships.
In a letter from Susanne K.
Gantz, community programs
director for the U.S. Depart-
ment of Agriculture dated June
27, it was alleged that the bor-
ough has failed to act in a time-
ly manner. Gantz specifically
took issue with a 2014 start.
Gantz set a moratorium that
construction bids must be ad-
vertised no later than Nov. 1,
2011, and they be awarded by
Jan. 31, 2012.
She said that if these dead-
lines are not met, the grant
funds will be de-obligated
and returned to the federal gov-
ernment, with Nuangola hav-
ing no recourse for other feder-
al funding.
Part of Gantz commentary
referred to the boroughs failure
to secure support funding, but
it was noted that that issue was
resolved through the loan
agreement signed with Fulton
Bank. Councilman John Ko-
chan, chairman of the sewer au-
thority, said also the authority
has a new plan that he said was
formulated by Quad 3 Engi-
neers of Wilkes-Barre and we
are moving forward.
Council said these actions
contradict Gantz.
In addition, Melissa Weber,
secretary-treasurer, said she
has been in communication
with the office of U.S. Rep. Lou
Barletta, R-Hazleton, and she
has a preliminary commitment
from him that he will act to sus-
tain Nuangolas grant funds.
The sewer systemdominated
comment at the session, al-
though, in conjunction with the
project, Plodwick said council
met in executive session to dis-
cuss litigation filed by Milnes
Engineers of Tunkhannock and
issues relating to $309,000 in
funding from Citzens Bank.
Attorney Patrick Healy of
Lancaster served as Fulton
Bank representative for the
signing of official documents
implementing the loan to the
sewer authority.
Nuangola scrambles to avoid grant loss
At stake is $3.2 million in
sewer funds from the U.S.
Department of Agriculture.

BEAR CREEK TWP. -- Stu-
dents will need an extra nickel
to get a breakfast or lunch at
the Bear Creek Community
Charter School, and school of-
ficials said newgovernment re-
quirements are to blame.
The schools board of trust-
ees voted Monday to increase
the price of breakfasts from $1
to $1.05, while lunches will go
from$1.75 to $1.80, a move the
schools CEOJimSmith said is
necessary to comply with the
requirements of the Hunger
Free Kids Act of 2010.
Smith said that even though
the schools meal programruns
efficiently enough to generate
a small surplus, the new act
sets aspecific formulafor pricing.
Under that formula, he said,
the meals are underpriced and
need to be increased, which will
likely increase the surplus. He
said the surplus of a few thou-
sanddollars is reinvestedintothe
program through things like spe-
cial free lunch days and small
equipment purchases.
The board discussed other op-
tions to compensate for the price
increase, such as increasing por-
tionsizes, but Smithsaidthe gov-
ernment also regulates portion
sizes and the types of foods that
are served.
The board also:
Ratified the purchase of 22
Dell OptiPlex 790 ultra small
form factor student computers/
monitors with Microsoft licens-
ing and four years of support for
$27,608.
Ratified the purchase of one
Dell PowerEdge R710 server, Mi-
crosoft Server 2008 and a three
year service plan for $5,466.
Approved the Bear Creek
Foundations request to replace
the schools front door and side-
lights for a cost of $7,525. The
Foundation owns the school
building.
Accepted the resignation of
Paulette Ashton.
Approved the hiring of Jillian
Everett as a full-time language
arts instructor for fifth and sixth
grade at salary of $33,000.
Price hike on menu for charter school meals
The increase of five cents a
meal will meet a federal
rule, the school CEO says.

HARRISBURG Gov. Tom
Corbetts transportation funding
commission on Monday en-
dorsed a mixture of revenue
sources to generate about $2.5
billion in additional annual
spending for Pennsylvanias
roads, bridges and mass transit.
There were no no votes cast
and only a single abstention as
the commission voted to recom-
mend increased wholesale taxes
on oil companies, higher vehicle
and driver registration fees and
to dedicate a fraction of sales tax-
es for mass transit needs.
Its final report to the governor,
due Aug. 1, will lay the ground-
work for potential talks between
Corbett and the Legislature after
Labor Day on a long-term ap-
proachtotransportationfunding.
A key element of those talks
will be a list of the projects the
state could complete over the
next decade if the money is ap-
proved. That list is currently be-
ing developed internally by the
Pennsylvania Department of
Transportation, with input from
local and regional transportation
planning organizations, and
could be on the PennDOT web-
site by the end of August, said
Transportation Secretary Barry
Schoch.
I think everybody deserves to
say, If you are charging me, what
do we get for it? said Schoch,
who presided over the meeting.
The Transportation Funding
Advisory Commission, all Cor-
bett appointees, consisted of gov-
ernment officials, people who
work in the transportation indus-
try, representatives of mass tran-
sit and others. They were direct-
ed at the start not to consider
raising the gasoline tax that driv-
ers pay at the pump.

cause they are involved in under-
cover operations, noted that a
U.S. Department of Justice re-
port released in March indicated
that New York- and New Jersey-
based gangs were migrating and
strengthening operations in
Northeastern Pennsylvania and
are recruiting members.
Much of their presentation on
Monday was focused on helping
parents identify signs of gang in-
volvement by their children.
Jackie Stefanowicz of Duryea
questioned the agents about lo-
cally employing gang deterrent
tactics used in Los Angeles, such
as having marked patrol vehicles
with volunteers patrol areas
where gang members and drug
traffickers would likely hang out.
The agents said such initia-
tives are good ideas, but finding
local funding can be an issue.
Adam Chase of Old Forge said
his children attend school in Du-
ryea andhe thought the presenta-
tion would be a good opportuni-
ty to learn something about the
potential for trouble from gangs.
You cant get enough informa-
tion. Information is powerful.
The agents gave a slide pre-
sentation showing some of the
symbols and numbers associated
with gangs, including sports
items and graffiti, tattoos and
hand signs, and gang-influenced
music and movies. They also dis-
cussed changes in behavior that
could be indicative of gang invol-
vement.
GANGS
Continued from Page 3A
What to look for
Early adolescent years (ages 12 to 14)
are a crucial time when youths are
exposed to gangs and may consider
joining a gang. Youths who are
becoming involved in a gang may
exhibit the following behaviors:
Negative changes in behavior such
as withdrawing from family, declin-
ing school attendance, staying out
late without reason, unusual desire
for secrecy, confrontational behav-
ior, sudden negative opinions about
law enforcement or authority fig-
ures.
Unusual interest in one or two
particular colors of clothing or a
logo.
Interest in gang-influenced music,
videos and movies.
Use and practice of hand signals
to communicate with friends.
Peculiar drawings or gang symbols
on school books, clothing, notebooks
or even walls.
Drastic changes in hair or dress
style and/or having a group of
friends with the same hair or dress
style.
Withdrawal from longtime friends.
Presence of firearms/ammunition
or other weapons.
Non-accidental physical injuries
(indicative of accepting a beating for
gang initiation).
Unexplained cash or goods, such
as clothing or jewelry.
What parents can do
Talk to your children about gangs
and ways to avoid them and let them
know you disapprove of gangs and
do not want to see them hurt or
arrested.
Tell your children not to associate
with gang members, not to hang out
where gangs congregate, not to
attend any party or social event
sponsored by gangs, not to use any
kind of hand or finger signs that may
be meaningful to gangs and not to
wear clothing that may have mean-
ing to gangs in your area.
Get to know your childrens friends
and the friends parents.
Talk to your children about ways to
deal with pressure from friends.
Set firm limits with your children
and teens.
Plan family time.

PITTSTON TWP. --
There is a new policy in the
yard waste program for res-
idents.
The program has an over-
whelming demand and the
supervisors are changing
the schedule so that it will
be picked up the second
Friday of each month in Up-
per and Lower Browntown,
Cork Lane including Te-
drick and Markets streets
west of the By-Pass.
It will also be collected
from Stauffer Heights,
Center Street, Laurel
Street, Doty Street, Mill
Street, Horizon Estates
and Stauffer Pointe.
The fourth Friday of each
month will include Butler
Heights and Highway 315,
Suscon, Langans Road, Poco-
no Ridge Estates, Houston
City, Packer Street, Glen-
dale, Route 502 and Quail
Hill.
Supervisors reminded resi-
dents that tree branches
must be bundled and tied.
Any other yard waste must
be in containers that do not
weigh more than 30 pounds.
Residents must call the
township building to arrange
to have their yard waste
picked up between 8 a.m. and
4 p.m. at least 24 hours prior
to the scheduled pickup date
as stated above.
Supervisor Stephen Rinal-
di wanted residents to know
that whatever they can pick,
they can dispose of.
In other matters, residents
asked the supervisors if they
can add more officers to the
police department staff.
Supervisors said they are
doing everything they can to
add more police.
Residents also said they
wanted the many potholes on
the corner of Armstrong and
Suscon to be patched.
Rinaldi said all work that
needs to be done is being ad-
dressed and will be complet-
ed on a timely basis.
A minor subdivision on
West Chapman Street was ap-
proved by supervisors.
The planning and zoning
were in line, and this led the
supervisors to approve the
subdivision.
Pittston Twp. changes pickup schedule
The supervisors say they
are working to beef up the
police force.

PARISAlarge studyinolder
veterans raises fresh concern
about mild brain injuries that
hundreds of thousands of Amer-
icantroops havesufferedfromex-
plosions in recent wars. Even
concussions seem to raise the
risk of developing Alzheimers
disease or other dementia later in
life, researchers found.
Closed-head, traumatic brain
injuries are a legacy of the Af-
ghanistanandIraq wars. Body ar-
mor is helping troops survive
bombblasts, but thelong-termef-
fects of their head injuries are un-
known.
The study, reportedMonday at
the Alzheimers Association In-
ternational Conference in
France, challenges the current
view that only moderate or se-
vere brain injuries predispose
people to dementia.
Even a concussion or a mild
brain injury can put you at risk,
saidLaurie Ryan, a neuropsychia-
trist who used to work at Walter
Reed Army Medical Center and
now oversees Alzheimers grants
at the U.S. National Institute on
Aging.
The study was led by Dr. Kris-
tine Yaffe, a University of Califor-
nia professor and director of the
Memory Disorders Clinic at the
San Francisco VA Medical Cen-
ter. The U.S. Department of De-
fense and the National Institutes
of Health paid for the work.
Its by far the largest study of
brain injury and dementia risk,
she said. Its never been looked
at in veterans specifically.
Researchers reviewed medical
records on 281,540 veterans who
got care from Veterans Health
Administration hospitals from
1997 to 2000 and had at least one
follow-up visit from 2001-2007.
All were at least 55 and none had
been diagnosed with dementia
whenthe study began. This older
group was chosen because de-
mentia grows more common
with age, and researchers needed
enough cases to compare those
with and without brain injuries.
Records showed that nearly
5,000of the veterans hadsuffered
a traumatic brain injury, or TBI,
ranging from concussions to
skull fractures. Researchers dont
know how long ago the injuries
occurred. Many participants
were Vietnam War vets and their
injuries were during active duty.
None were due to strokes
those cases were weeded out.
Over the next seven years,
more than 15 percent of those
who had suffered a brain injury
were diagnosed with dementia
versus only 7 percent of the oth-
ers a more than doubled risk.
Injury is
linked to
dementia
Study of older veterans raises
concerns about brain injuries
from explosions during war.

He was a superhero when it came
to fighting corruption. He could
see troubles in elected officials
and in those who lurk behind the
scenes but whose hands
control all.
Harry W. Skene
The Forty Fort attorney eulogized former Luzerne County controller
Steve Flood, who died Saturday at age 67. Skene had worked as Floods
solicitor during an often contentious tenure beginning in 2002 in which
Flood challenged county officials on several hiring and spending issues.
Writer sees no debate
on risks of fracking
T
he natural gas companies in the Mar-
cellus Shale region pose two very
strong marketing weapons. They have
advanced the perception that they offer a
real solution to the problem of foreign
energy dependence and they have man-
aged to brand themselves as the cleanest
and greenest of todays fossil fuels.
Neither of these contentions has proven
to be true. Its no longer a secret that Che-
sapeake and other major natural gas play-
ers have sold large slices of their oper-
ations to the Chinese to satisfy the raven-
ous energy demand in that part of the
world. We apparently will see little benefit
in the way of energy independence from
domestic exploration.
As to the clean and green issue, we have
seen the evidence and heard the testimony
of those people who have been wronged by
these operations, and only the blind and
ignorant among us do not appreciate the
real horrors of the hydrofracturing process.
Many people argue that there are two
sides to this debate. Im sorry, but there
are not. Fracking contaminates ground-
water, threatens the health of families and
renders fresh water supplies useless. No
debate there.
The drillers employ a strategy that if you
repeat a lie frequently enough, it becomes
a truth. This strategy is effective but it
cannot erase the trail of environmental
destruction left by these profiteers wherev-
er they choose to blast the shale. Land-
scape is destroyed, wildlife is uprooted and
the agencies put in place to protect our
environment are bypassed.
Ignorance of the facts might have served
as an excuse in the early days of this issue
but it can no longer offer sanctuary to
those people who choose to turn their
heads. This mining practice is horrific and
destructive.
Its not too late to get involved. Contact
your representatives and demand a mora-
torium on fracking until we have time to
study its consequences.

Obamas telling words,
but who will own pain
I
really thought President Obamas quote
after a recent debt crisis session was
illuminating: Everyone acknowledged
that pain will be involved politically on all
sides.
Im not sure if it would be the Repub-
licans or Democrats who are willing to
forfeit the largest portion of their salaries,
health benefits and pensions.
Gregory M. Suda
Nanticoke
A corporate takeover
now unfolding in nation
I
ts about time. After listening to the
Republican Congress members constant-
ly accusing President Obama and the
Democrats of not submitting cost-cutting
measures to reduce the countrys deficit,
finally, Obama called their bluff.
They are like a spoiled child stating, I
will cut only these programs and will not
discuss raising taxes or Ill leave the
discussions. This selfish attitude has gone
on long enough, and the American people
are weary of their representatives in Con-
gress playing a tit-for-tat game of politics
while millions of families are losing their
homes, losing their jobs and barely able to
pay their bills.
Its about time these congressional mem-
bers enact laws that will encourage banks
and corporations to begin hiring people
and begin getting this economy back on
track. The longer the unemployment rate
stays high and the housing market lags
behind because banks that are profiting
from the stimulus refuse to grant loans to
reliable American families, the longer the
economic downturn will continue.
With the number of foreclosures, you
would think the banks would change their
attitudes and encourage some of the home-
owners to pay smaller amounts on the
existing mortgages to help them through
these tough economic times. But if one
watches the stock market returns daily,
many large banks are profiting tremen-
dously and unfortunately are not feeling
patriotic enough to share some of the
profits.
An example of corporations and political
pawns showing contempt for the middle
class or poor of this nation is the recent
decision by the Republican-loaded Su-
preme Court that favored Wal-Mart over
working-class women. If one doesnt be-
lieve that corporations are being given
favorable treatment, research how many of
those same judges voted to let corpora-
tions have a big say in American elections.
When President Obama called them out
for that law when he delivered his State of
the Union address, the judges said it was
unethical for the president to do so.
So the next time you chose a candidate
to vote into office, please take the time to
find out who or what corporation is back-
ing him or her. Many of the recent Repub-
lican governors (Wisconsin, Ohio, Florida,
etc.) were put into office through vast
amounts of money donated by the sly
Koch brothers, billionaires who recently
had a meeting of their puppet governors
in Vail, Colo., to give them marching or-
ders.
All this to create a situation that will
continue to allow these corporate giants to
have laws enacted in their favor that allow
pollution to continue, and more important
to stop the Democrats from winning elec-
tions with the help of union-backed funds.
In this way our country eventually will
be run by aristocratic corporate giants, be
they industry, banks or Wall Street enti-
ties; and instead of a fair playing field for
the American worker, they will become
slaves of these giants running the govern-
ment purely for profit without any consid-
eration for the crumbling middle class or
poor.

Kids should be cared for,
not put on picket line
I
t is expected that taxpaying adults some-
times will picket regarding issues that
affect their jobs, taxes and lives; but it is
disgusting to see children with signs.
Arent 7- and 8-year-old children a little
old for kindergarten? Parents who use
their children as an excuse to solve their
problems should be ashamed. Children
shouldnt be used as pawns to negotiate for
full-day kindergarten at a cost the property
owners cannot afford.
If parents have to work to sustain their
style of living, then they should be respon-
sible for arrangements with a day care, not
at taxpayers expense via the school sys-
tem.

Government actions dont
add up to much cents
T
he government makes no cents.
Newspapers, according to the law,
print property listings from the tax
claim office regarding people who owe
back taxes, the first step in sheriffs sale.
We give millions in foreign aid to other
nations. We are building roads, bridges and
schools in Iraq, Afghanistan and else-
where. Millions of Americans are receiving
rent subsidies. Middle-class Americans pay
their own mortgages and taxes.
A young man or woman joins the mil-
itary, serves one or two tours in Iraq or
Afghanistan, comes home to find their
parents home up for sheriffs sale while he
or she was helping to build schools, roads,
bridges with Americans tax dollars.
The government makes no cents.

TS A SHAME that Camp-
bell Soup Co. couldnt find
a better recipe to serve up
higher profits than to put
more salt into its soups to ratch-
et up their taste.
The Camden-based company
hopes to whet the finicky appe-
tite of consumers, who have
found its healthier soup varie-
tiesthat containlesssodiumless
appetizing. But most Americans
already consume more than the
maximum 2,300 milligrams of
sodium recommended daily.
Campbells spokesman An-
thony Sanzio said Friday that
the company plans to raise the
salt level from480mgto650mg
in some varieties. It will still of-
fer lower-sodium versions. The
announcement was greeted
warmly by business analysts,
who predict more salt will again
have consumers saying Mm
Mm good. But its disappoint-
ing that a company with a dem-
onstrated record of social re-
sponsibility is retreating on ef-
forts to cut sodium.
Most salt in food comes not
from the shaker, but from proc-
essed products. There has been
some conflicting research, but
most studies have linked in-
creased sodium levels to high
blood pressure a risk factor for
stroke, heart attack and other
ailments.
Light on the salt, please.

OTHERED BY rude-
ness and unruly con-
duct at recent public
meetings, certain
Wilkes-Barre council mem-
bers, including Chairwoman
Kathy Kane, say something
needs to be done to ensure ci-
vility.
No question.
For starters, council mem-
bers, rather than
drafting a new ordi-
nance aimed at fur-
ther policing city res-
idents and other peo-
ple whoapproachthe
podiumtovoicetheir
thoughts, can modify
their own sometimes
boorish behavior. No
more clock-watching during a
citizens allotted5-minute com-
ment period. No more exasper-
ated looks or whispered ex-
changes behind the council ta-
ble. And definitely no more
name calling.
Kanes dismissal of one
speaker during a May meeting
by saying, See you, Cupcake
was not merely unprofessional;
it was immature.
Sure, we realize that these
city council members, as with
elected officials on township
commissions and school
boards, seldom get the credit
they deserve for their roles in
upholding democracy and in
helping people. They certainly
dont deserve to be treated as
stand-ins for the circus clown
who repeatedly takes a pie in
the face.
But they should fully expect
to hear from disgruntled con-
stituents, whose gripes might
or might not be legitimate.
Free speech, for better or
worse, is free to everyone, in-
cluding the louts, the loud-
mouths and the loons. Espe-
cially the loons whose ludi-
crous ideas today might later
become vindicated.
In Wilkes-Barre, council
members seemingly could ben-
efit by improving
their conduct. Per-
haps each citizen
speaker at the
next city council
session should
hoist a large mir-
ror, allowing coun-
cil members to
view themselves
duringthepublicpresentations
and literally reflect on their
postures and composures.
Make eye contact and listen
intently. Give as much cre-
dence to the person who is crit-
ical or questioning as to the
person delivering praise. Pay
more attention to the speakers
message thantohowmany sec-
onds he, or she, has remaining
before the 5-minute limit ex-
pires a deadline that
shouldnt be firmly followed.
If a speaker becomes bellig-
erent or otherwise misbehaves,
let the police intervene. If the
problempersists, yes, other ac-
tion might be warranted.
However, before Wilkes-
Barres council draws up new
sanctions and possibly dishes
out temporary suspensions to
rules breakers, it should first
try extending more of this: Re-
spect.
OUR OPINION: W-B DECORUM
Advice to council:
Do unto others
Give as much
credence to the
person who is
critical as to
the person
delivering praise.

In my opinion, (it) will be one
of the most significant invest-
ments in health care in the greater
Scranton region, Wilson said.
This isnt the first time the two
entities talked about combining.
In August 2009, they signed a
non-binding letter of intent to ex-
plore possible ways to work to-
gether, but four months later the
talks ended with no partnership in
place.
If the merger does occur, it will
be the latest reshaping of the
health care landscape in North-
eastern Pennsylvania, which
would be led by two health sys-
tems: Danville-based Geisinger
and Franklin, Tenn.-based Com-
munity HealthSystems, whichis a
for-profit company.
Geisinger operates two hospi-
tals inLuzerneCounty-- Geisinger
Wyoming Valley in Plains Town-
ship and Geisinger South Wilkes-
Barre.
In recent years, CHS has target-
ed this region for purchases.
InMarch, aLackawannaCounty
judge approved the $150 million
sale to CHS of Scrantons Mercy
Hospital and affiliated facilities in
Nanticoke and Tunkhannock.
In May 2009, CHS purchased
the Wyoming Valley Health Care
System, which includes Wilkes-
Barre General Hospital, for $271
million. Part of that deal included
the promise of major upgrades, in-
cluding a $50 million expansion
that includes a newemergency de-
partment. Ground was broken for
that project last month.
The merger wouldrequire anin-
vestigation by the state Attorney
Generals Office since CMC is a
not-for-profit entity. The office
would make sure no anti-trust is-
sues would be raised and that the
hospitals donations andcharitable
assets are protected. A message
left with that office Monday was
not immediately returned.
Gladys G. Bernet, regional di-
rector for marketing and public re-
lations for the three CHS hospitals
that were purchased from Mercy
this year, declined comment on
the potential merger.
More changes may be instore in
the regions health care.
Last month, Geisinger and
Bloomsburg Health System an-
nounced the signing of a non-
binding letter of intent to explore
the potential merger of the small-
er Bloomsburg system into Geis-
inger.
MERGER
Andrew M. Seder, a Times Leader
staff writer, may be reached at 570-
829-7269.
The suit argues Floods state-
ments were inaccurate and hurt
the business. Flood had main-
tained that his comments were
justified.
Sued over fees
The other outstanding suit
was filed in 2010 by a Philadel-
phia law firm against Flood and
his partner andguardian, Heath-
er Paulhamus, claiming that the
firm is owed $205,696 in legal
fees for representing Flood in
the libel suit.
Wilkes-Barre attorney Robert
C. Trichilo, who is representing
Flood and Paulhamus, said
Monday that the suit is still in
the beginning stages of discov-
ery.
Trichilosaidhe andother law-
yers at Brady&Grabowski, P.C.,
may be filing a separate suit
against the county on behalf of
Flood or his estate arguing that
the county is responsible for the
legal fees. The lawyers are re-
searching a statute governing
the payment of legal fees for
county employees and depart-
ment heads, he said.
The county Retirement Board
had initially voted to pay for
Floods legal defense in the libel
suit but reversed the decision
shortly after Flood lost his bid
for re-election in 2005.
Thelawfirmseekingpayment
Schnader, Harrison, Segal &
Lewis also represented the re-
tirement board in a 2003 racke-
teering suit filed against past
county officials and pension
fund managers. A federal judge
dismissedthat suit inNovember
2007.
The county controller, com-
missioners and treasurer sit on
the retirement board, which
oversees the employee pension
fund.
Publicized lawsuit
The trade secrets lawsuit that
ended in December had been
highly publicized because it was
filed against Flood and two state
welfare officials challenging the
release of a draft audit critical of
the countys $58 million, 20-year
lease of PA Childcares Pittston
Township juvenile center.
The detention center was at
the center of corruption charges
later filed against former judges
MarkCiavarellaandMichael Co-
nahan, former center co-owner
Robert Powell and center build-
er Robert Mericle.
Conahan had sealed the trade
secrets suit, but the state Superi-
or Court overturned that deci-
sion after an appeal by The
Times Leader.
Federal authorities said Cona-
hans sealing without a hearing
was one example of fraud com-
mitted by Conahan in exchange
for a bribe, according to an in-
dictment against Conahan and
Ciavarella.
Court paperwork says PA
Child Care discontinued and
endedthe trade secrets suit with
prejudice, which means it cant
file the claimagain in the future.
PA Child Cares Pittsburgh at-
torney, Bernard M. Schneider,
declined comment Monday on
the reason for ending the suit.
Allstate Insurance Co. also
dropped a legal action against
FloodandPAChildCareinJanu-
ary, court records showed. The
companys suit argued that
Floods personal umbrella insur-
ance policy didnt require the in-
surer to defend Flood or provide
any monetary compensation in
the trade secrets suit.
Flood, who served as controll-
er from 2002 through 2005, has
been credited by many for un-
covering information and spark-
ingthe federal investigationthat
ledtocharges against Ciavarella,
Conahan, Mericle and Powell.

Though he declined to pin-
point blame, Liuzzosaidmost of
the fixing requires a shift in the
psychology of lawmakers.
Role of politics
Bob Herbert, a Demos distin-
guished senior fellowand former
NewYorkTimes columnist, mod-
erated the media teleconference
and also talked about the role of
politics in creating the problem.
We have ideology and politics
standing in the way, Herbert
said.
Three generations ago, Amer-
ica created our single greatest in-
vention, not theInternet or thein-
ternal combustion engine or the
lightbulborthesolarpanel. Itwas
the vast American middle class,
Herbert said. This middle class
didnt just happen. It was the re-
sult of agrandbargainamonggov-
ernment, businesses and ordi-
nary workers who all agreed on a
set of shared values that basically
said, We believe that all Ameri-
cans should have a decent life.
Herbert said the agreements
made it possible to have good-
paying, meaningful jobswithben-
efits, pensions and paid time off.
He said chief executive officers
typically earned 25 times the av-
erage salary of his or her employ-
ees.
That hasnowrisento200times
that average salary, and boards of
directors and government-
backed tax cuts and incentives
have begun to take their toll on
what Herbert called The Ameri-
can Dream.
To start to swing the momen-
tumbacktoastrongmiddleclass,
Herbert said the nation needs to
refocus on job growth, investing
ininfrastructureandcreatingsus-
tainable jobs inindustries suchas
alternative energy. And policies
that help and not harmthe mid-
dle class are essential.
The report addresses several
factors contributing to strains on
the middle class of Pennsylvania.
Among them are stagnant wages
and an increased cost of college
tuition.
Overthelast 30years, inflation-
adjusted median annual earnings
for Pennsylvania workers (ages
18-64) have fluctuated with
changes in the economy, the re-
port shows.
Pennsylvanias median earn-
ings peaked at $36,750 in 2003,
beforefallingandthenrecovering
in the last few years to $36,050.
Though wages are below their
2003 level, they have grownsince
1980instepwiththerest of thena-
tion.
While annual earnings have in-
creased in the past few years, the
increase translates to a little over
$2 more per hour. This is not in
line with increased costs in ener-
gy, education, food, gasoline and
insurance.
TuitioninPa. high
The average college tuition in
the state was at $10,761 for 2009-
10 academic year. Thats well
above the national average of
$6,829. Tuition costs have in-
creasedexponentially inPennsyl-
vania over the past generation,
more than tripling over the past
25 years.
This has an impact on the mid-
dle class because a college degree
makesabigdifferenceinearnings
potential.
In 2010, median earnings for
workersage25to34withatleasta
bachelorsdegreewere$45,900in
Pennsylvania -- more than 62 per-
cent higher than the $28,356 a
typical high school graduate in
the same age range was earning.
College is more inaccessible
than ever, said Stephen Herzen-
berg, theexecutivedirector of the
Keystone Research Center.
And its only getting more cost-
lybecauseof statebudget tighten-
ing thats meant less funding for
state-run or state-related univer-
sities.
For the 2011-12 school year, the
state legislature reduced spend-
ing at the 14 Pennsylvania State
Systemof Educationuniversities,
which includes Bloomsburg and
East Stroudsburg, by about $70
million, or 14.5 percent. The
state-related universities, such as
Pittsburgh, Temple and Penn
State, saw 19 percent funding
cuts.
Asaresult, tuitionratesaresky-
rocketing at those schools next
semester. Temple University is
raising in-state undergraduate
tuitionrates ninepercent this fall.
As a point of reference, the cur-
rent rate on inflation is 3.6 per-
cent.
And for those who do go to col-
lege, their debt is high compared
to their counterparts across the
country.
Seventy two percent of college
graduates in Pennsylvania en-
teredthe labor force withstudent
debt in 2009, and their average
debt $27,066 was the sev-
enthhighestinthenation, accord-
ing to the report.
While the CEOs and govern-
ment were mentioned as contrib-
utors, Herbert declined to place
the blame on just one group.
There are a lot of people re-
sponsiblefor thefixthat werein,
Herbert said.
But to fix the problems, Liuzzo
said, it will likelymeanhighertax-
es. And that will hurt the middle
class even more.
The rich will pay more, but
they can afford it. The poor cant
pay it and so the middle class will
befootingthebill,hesaid. Thisis
the trend of the past fewdecades.
Andtheendresult, Liuzzosaid,
is that the rich get richer, the
poor get richer and the middle
class gets a little bit richer.

Korona said she and her friends
will take their children over to
Kingstons HamiltonPark, but she
said getting there could be diffi-
cult.
We walk everywhere, she
said. Its difficult to take a lot of
kids on a bus.
Korona said a nearby newgated
playground for toddlers is unusa-
ble because of the construction
project.
Its all pretty frustrating, she
said.
At last weeks City Council
meeting, Councilman Tony Tho-
mas Jr. said the concrete at the
new$145,439 splash pad installed
at the renovated park didnt cure
properly. Thomas said the con-
crete had to be removed.
ParrishPools, Hunt Valley, Md.,
is the subcontractor that did the
original work, according to Drew
McLaughlin, the citys administra-
tive coordinator.
He said the general contractor
is Bitting Recreation Co., Harris-
burg. Parrish Pools was hired as a
sub-contractor by Bitting through
the COSTARS program,
McLaughlin said.
The city is as eager to openthe
splash pad as any resident or park
visitor, said Mayor Tom Leight-
on. The forecasted hot weather
this week is exactly why I prior-
itized building the splash pad for
Coal Street, but the city was not
going to accept or pay for work
that was sub-par. The city is push-
inghardfor it tobe openedintime
for the end of the summer sea-
son.
By the looks of things at Coal
Street, the splash pad is weeks
away from being completed. Vis-
itors there said they havent seen
workbeingdoneonthesplashpad
since the beginning of July.
Allen Schmidt, who brought
three of his children to the park,
saidhe was looking for something
fun for the kids to do on a hot and
humid day.
Its so hot, Schmidt said. And
no splash pad open, well, thats
not good. And nothing is being
done. The city cant get anything
right.
William and Jacquelyn Morris
of Wilkes-Barre brought there 22-
month-old daughter, Ava, to the
park.
A splash park is still a great
idea, Morris said. At least it will
be available next year.
Randy Bitting was unavailable
for comment Monday anda call to
Parrish Pools was not returned.
McLaughlin said Bitting handled
the firing of the previous subcon-
tractor, and he is conducting the
search for a new one.
McLaughlin said the city will
have a ribbon-cutting for the com-
pleted recreational improve-
ments, such as the basketball
courts and toddler playground, in
the near future.
The city said the concrete vault
failed an inspection by the citys
building code office. The vault
holds the water filtration system
and all of the plumbing that con-
trols and operates the splash pad.
McLaughlin said it would not
cost the cityanyadditional money
to correct the problem.
Thomas saidthe splashpadwill
be a welcome addition to Coal
Street Park, which has undergone
a$14millionfacelift inthelast two
years. A splash pad is an area for
water play that has no standing
water and doesnt require a life-
guard or other supervision.
Lydia Naperkowski said there
could be water at Coal Street
soon.
Maybe it will rain, she said.

The National Weather Service said
it will be hot and humid all week,
with temperatures in the 90s
every day. Thursdays high is
expected to hit 97 degrees and
the high on Friday will be 96.
Temperatures will moderate next
week when the high is expected to
dip to 82 degrees on Monday.

This is what I have to look
forward to, she said. There will
be no air conditioning and an
unbearable number of mosqui-
toes at night.
With much of the nation in
the grip of a broiling heat wave,
few people are hit as hard as the
poor, and few places are poorer
than the ramshackle communi-
ties along the Texas-Mexico
border known as colonias.
The misery was widespread
Monday, with the worst condi-
tions blanketing a broad band
from Texas to Minnesota and
Dakotas. Seventeen states is-
sued heat watches, warnings or
advisories. And the heat index
easily surpassed 100 degrees in
many places: 126 in Newton, Io-
wa; 120 in Mitchell, S.D.; and
119 in Madison, Minn.
The high temperatures were
nearly certain to persist for the
entire week. Forecasters ex-
pected the extreme discomfort
to spread soon to the East
Coast.
In towns large and small, the
withering heat was cruelest to
those who could not afford air
conditioning.
Built at the edge of the des-
ert, the colonias often lack elec-
tricity and running water. Peo-
ple bought the land before zon-
ing regulations were adopted,
hoping that utility services
would follow.
To finance her house, Esca-
milla, who is 62, had to take out
a loan against her funeral ser-
vices and buy building materi-
als recycled from demolition
sites in Ciudad Juarez, across
the border from El Paso.
Norma Salazar, who shares a
tiny trailer home with her hus-
band and six children in Hori-
zon City, on the outskirts of El
Paso, has to rely on an evapora-
tive cooler, a cheap alternative
to air conditioning that sucks
the hot, dry desert air through a
mesh of water-soaked fibers.
But it only cools half of the
trailer, and when the heat
climbs above 100, not even that.
In downtown Minneapolis,
where the heat index reached
106 degrees, the Salvation Ar-
mys Harbor Light Center threw
open its doors for anyone who
needed to cool off and drink a
glass of ice water.
Executive Director Bill Miller
said he allowed about 200 peo-
ple who slept at the shelter Sun-
day night to stay instead being
asked to leave in the morning.
We dont have them leave
when its this hot, he said. Its
hot enough to get dehydrated,
especially if youre drinking. In
this heat, it could kill you.
Chicago officials opened six
cooling centers, many of them
in lower-income neighbor-
hoods, along with hundreds of
air-conditioned public build-
ings such as libraries, park facil-
ities and police stations.

THE TIMES LEADER TUESDAY, JULY 19, 2011

W
ith a proud, gleeful trot,
Shane Victorino rounded
third base and headed for
home.
It was only then that Victorino dis-
covered his high, arcing shot over the
left field wall Sunday at Waterfront Park
had been ruled a foul ball.
I said, Thanks for letting me get all
the way around third before telling me,
Victorino said.
So for the second time this month,
Victorinos game told a tale of blunder.
He tripped while throwing fromthe
outfield against the Toronto Blue Jays
on July 3, which is howhe landed on
the disabled list with an injured right
thumb and why he spent this past week-
end completing a minor league rehabil-
itation assignment with Double-A
Reading.
Another embarrassing moment.
Why not? Victorino said. Two weeks
to the day.
Yet, the today the Phillies get so
much stronger, even boasting the best
record in baseball, because Victorino
returns Philadelphias lineup.
Late-inning relief specialst Brad
Lidge isnt far behind.
After throwing15 of his 16 pitches for
strikes while working a scoreless sev-
enth inning for Reading on Sunday,
Lidge figures hes one more rehab out-
ing away fromresuming his role as the
Phillies closer. He spent the first half of
this year recovering froma right rotator
cuff strain.
But its Victorinos absence thats put
a real strain on the Phillies, which is
why his return may have the biggest
impact on the team.
The high-energy All-Star center fiel-
der was hitting .303 with nine home
runs and 34 RBI at the time of his in-
jury. But more importantly, he solidi-
fied the middle of the Phillies lineup
after recently dropping to the teams
No. 5 hitter fromhis second slot in the
batting order.
Victorinos presence behind cleanup
man Ryan Howard gives a scoring-
challenged Phillies offense much more
potential and punch.
Even if hes not about to punch any-
thing just yet with his still ailing thumb.
Theres going to be pain, Victorino
said. Theres going to be some discom-
fort there. Ive just got to play through
it.
Hes never just playing around.
Anybody whos watched Victorino
cant help admiring his all-out, all-the-
time hustle and his penchant for deliv-
ering in big moments.
Remember his game-changing grand
slamagainst C.C. Sabathia in the 2008
National League playoffs? Or Victori-
nos lunging grab of a shot to the gap
against the Reds in last years postsea-
son?
He didnt slowdown much during his
rehab stint with Reading, hitting .500 in
two games even without his disputed
long ball.
I thought it was over (in fair territo-
ry), Victorino said of his first-inning
blast that hugged the left field line.
Obviously the umpire didnt.
That didnt stop himfromspending
the rest of his Sunday hustling through
center field and around the base paths.
Thats howI play the game, Victori-
no said. I kind of play it at one speed.
Its a non-stop ball of energy Phillies
fans truly appreciate.
Victorino is back in Philadelphia and
heading toward the plate again.
And this time, nobodys going to stop
him.

game, six-hit shutout and stayed hot with
the bat as well going 2-for-3 with two RBI
as Back Mountain defeated its Wyoming
Valley American Legion League com-

FRANKFURT, Germany Once the
Americans get over the disappointment
of coming up just short at the Womens
World Cup, theyll find plenty of reasons
for optimism.
The U.S. team pulled together amid a

Christie Rampone, Shannon Boxx and
maybe Abby Wambach are nearing their

CHICAGO Aramis Rami-
rez and Carlos Pena homered
to back a dominant start by
Rodrigo Lopez, and the Chi-
cago Cubs beat Philadelphia
6-1 Monday on a night when
Phillies ace Roy Halladay left
the game because of the heat.
Halladay doubled over and
was visited by a trainer after
Starlin Castro led off the fifth
inning with a single. Drew
Carpenter came in to replace
him.
Halladay was drenched in
sweat on a humid night in
which the game-time temper-
ature was 91. The heat clearly
affected him.
He gave up three runs and
seven hits and took his first
loss since May 15. Halladay
had his first outing since
starting for the National
League in last weeks All-Star
game and pitching two per-
fect innings.
Marlins 4, Mets 1
NEW YORK Clay Hen-
sley came off the disabled list
to win his first major league
start in three years, leading
the resurgent Florida Marlins
past the New York Mets.
Mike Stanton hit a two-run
double and slumping Mike
Cameron followed with an
RBI single for the Marlins,
who have won nine of 10 to
put themselves on the brink
of climbing out of last place
in the NL East.
Florida improved to 15-9
under 80-year-old manager
Jack McKeon, who took over
after Edwin Rodriguez abrupt-
ly resigned late in the teams
1-19 June swoon.
In the makeup of a May 17
rainout, Hensley (1-2) allowed
one hit over five scoreless
innings against a depleted
Mets lineup. It was his 41st
big league start but first
since July 24, 2008, for San
Diego at Pittsburgh.
Nationals 5, Astros 2
HOUSTON Michael Morse
and Ryan Zimmerman home-
red and Zimmerman drove in
the go-ahead run in the ninth
inning to give the Washington
Nationals a in over the Hous-
ton Astros.
Laynce Nix added a pair of
insurance runs with an RBI
single after Zimmermans hit
in the ninth.
Braves 7, Rockies 4
DENVER Freddie Free-
man homered and drove in
three runs and right-hander
Derek Lowe handcuffed the
Colorado Rockies over 6 1-3
innings in the Atlanta Braves
7-4 win Monday night.
Lowe must have felt right
at home in the unusually
warm night in Colorado, and
the sunshine actually helped
him beat the Rockies for the
second time in two weeks.

Halladay leaves
start in loss
Mets: Reyes likely
off DL today
NEW YORK Jose Reyes
appears ready to come off the
disabled list.
The New York Mets star
doubled and played six
innings at shortstop Monday
in a rehab game for Class-A
Brooklyn. Mets manager Terry
Collins says it looks as though
Reyes will be activated
Tuesday in time for the
opener of a three-game series
against St. Louis.
Leading the majors with a
.354 batting average and 15
triples, Reyes has been
sidelined since July 3 with a
strained left hamstring. He
was eligible to come off the
disabled list Monday, but the
Mets wanted him to test his
leg in a game first.
Reyes went 1 for 3 and
scored a run in Brooklyns 11-5
loss to Lowell.
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.
Russell Martin drew a basebs-
loaded walk with two outs in
the top of the ninth inning,
giving the New York Yankees a
5-4 victory over the Tampa Bay
Rays on Monday night.
Robinson Cano, Mark Teixei-
ra, Brett Gardner and Eduardo
Nunez also drove in runs for
the second-place Yankees, who
rallied from a 4-1 deficit to
remain 1
1
2 games behind the
Boston Red Sox in the AL East
standings.
Rookie left-hander Alex
Torres (0-1) yielded the win-
ning run in his major league
debut after New York loaded
the bases on Curtis Grander-
sons single, an intentional
walk to Nick Swisher and an-
other walk to Andruw Jones.
Martin worked Torres to a full
count, fouled off a pitch and
then took ball four to push
Granderson across the plate.
Red Sox 15, Orioles 10
BALTIMORE Dustin
Pedroia doubled in two runs to
spark an eight-run eighth in-
ning, and the Boston Red Sox
got home runs from Jarrod
Saltalamacchia and Josh Red-
dick in a rout of the Baltimore
Orioles.
Pedroia, Kevin Youkilis and
Darnell McDonald had three
RBIs apiece for the Red Sox,
who have won 13 of 15. The
run includes a 16-inning affair
against Tampa Bay on Sunday
night in which Boston mus-
tered only five hits.
Showing very little signs of
fatigue, the Red Sox banged
out 16 hits in rolling to their
seventh straight victory over
the Orioles.
Indians 5, Twins 2
Indians 6, Twins 3
MINNEAPOLIS Lou
Marson hit a tiebreaking solo
homer in the seventh inning
and the Cleveland Indians
completed a doubleheader
sweep with a 6-3 victory over
the Minnesota Twins, kicking
off the important four-game
series with a pair of victories at
sweltering Target Field.
Marson also doubled and
scored in the fifth against Scott
Diamond, who turned in a
decent major league debut for
the Twins but took the defeat.
Fausto Carmona (5-10) came
off the disabled list and won
for only the second time in his
last 12 starts, beating the heat
to finish six innings with two
runs allowed. Asdrubal Cabre-
ra hit a three-run homer to lift
the Indians to a 5-2 win in the
matinee and added an RBI
single in the nightcap.
White Sox 5, Royals 2
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Mark
Buerhle lasted seven innings in
another impressive start, and
the Chicago White Sox capital-
ized on an error by young
shortstop Alcides Escobar to
beat the Kansas City Royals on
a steamy.
Buehrle (7-5) hasnt allowed
more than three earned runs in
his last 14 starts going back to
April 22, though his modest
record doesnt indicate how
well hes been pitching.
The veteran left-hander, in
the final year of a four-year, $56
million contract, allowed five
hits while winning for the first
time since June 9. Buehrle
struck out three and walked
one while throwing 111 pitches
in 95-degree temperatures.

HOUSTON Tests done
Monday on Texas Rangers
President Nolan Ryan
showed no new heart prob-
lems for the Hall of Fame
pitcher, who was hospital-
ized after experiencing
discomfort over the week-
end.
Ryan, 64, continues to
improve, the Rangers said
in a statement. He is ex-
pected to be released from a
Houston hospital in a day
or two.
Ryan has a pre-existing
heart condition that will
continue being treated with
medication, according to
the teams statement. He
had a double-bypass oper-
ation in 2000 and has a
family history of heart dis-
ease.
He sought treatment after
experiencing discomfort
Sunday morning while at
his home in Georgetown,
located about 170 miles
northwest of Houston.
Ryan had been expected
to join the Rangers in Ana-
heim, Calif., on Tuesday
night for the start of a
three-game series between
his AL West-leading club
and the Angels, who are in
second place, four games
back. He was scheduled to
throw out the ceremonial
first pitch and to take part
in a ceremony inducting
Gene Autry, the Angels late
owner, into the teams Hall
of Fame.
Ryan holds the records
for most no-hitters (seven)
and strikeouts (5,714). Hes
been running the Rangers
since 2008 and became
part-owner last summer.
Texas went to the World
Series for the first time last
fall.
Tejada leaves game with
possible injury
SAN FRANCISCO San
Francisco Giants shortstop
Miguel Tejada has left Mon-
days game against the Los
Angeles Dodgers with a
possible groin injury.
Tejada had attempted to
field Rafael Furcals sharp
grounder in the third in-
ning, but bobbled it for an
error then slid to the turf.
A team trainer came out
to check on Tejada, as did
San Francisco manager
Bruce Bochy, before the
three walked off the field
together.
Tejada, who was replaced
by rookie Brandon Craw-
ford, struck out in his only
at-bat against the Dodgers
Chad Billingsley.

The Back Mountain Ameri-
can Little League minor base-
ball team is on a roll. The
squad, comprised of 9 and 10
year-olds, won four consecutive
games last weekend to claim
the District 31 and Section 5
championships at North Poco-
no.
Now, the team has a chance
to capture a state champion-
ship.
Coach Jeff Doggetts team
opens first-round play at 2:30
p.m. Wednesday in Milton
against Warwick, the defending
state champion in the age brack-
et.
Warwick won the District 6
sectional tournament and they
are a very strong team, Dog-
gett said. They make plays in
the field and run well. They also
have good pitching.
According to Doggett, the
two teams match well and hes
confident that Back Mountain
American will be tough to beat.
Our biggest advantage is that
we can hit, he said. We score a
lot of runs and we also have
very good pitching. Im confi-
dent were going to put runs on
the board.
American had its back against
the wall last week in the double-
elimination tournament but re-
sponded like champions.
After dropping a 7-3 decision
to North Pocono in the opener,
American bounced back by win-
ning four games. The team beat
Wallenpaupack and North Poco-
no, then posted two straight
wins over Plains to lock up the
title.
We have 12 kids that are a
distinct privilege to coach,
Doggett said. Theyre very un-
selfish and tough between the
ears. They dont get caught up
in nonsense. Theyre a credit to
themselves, their families and
our league.
American (8-1) also prides it-
self by displaying sportsman-
ship, he added.
We shake hands with the op-
ponents, coaches and the um-
pires after every game. Its a ve-
ry unselfish group of kids, Dog-
gett said,
He credits assistant coaches
Scott Answini and Mike Luksic
for playing a key role in the
teams success.
Doggett said the key to
Wednesdays game is to strike
first.
We pitch and defend well
enough to stay ahead, he said.
We feel like we belong in the
state tournament. We earned it
by playing a lot of tough teams.

be approved by the players, of
course, including star quarter-
backs TomBrady, Peyton Man-
ning and Drew Brees and the
other plaintiffs ina federal anti-
trust suit against the league.
Members of the NFLPA ex-
ecutive committee and repre-
sentatives of every team were
heading to Washington by
Wednesday, in preparation for
possible decisions on re-estab-
lishing a union and signing off
on a tentative pact with own-
ers.
Atallah said the players
would be gathering with the
hope they have something to
look at, and with the hope we
can move forward on this.
Owners locked out players
on March12, when the old col-
lective bargaining agreement
expired, leaving the countrys
most popular professional
sports league in limbo. The
sides are trying to forge a set-
tlement intime tokeepthe pre-
season completely intact. The
exhibition opener is supposed
to be the Hall of Fame game be-
tween the St. Louis Rams and
Chicago Bears on Aug. 7.
The regular-seasonopener is
scheduledfor Sept. 8, whenthe
Super Bowl champion Green
Bay Packers are to host the
New Orleans Saints.
Philadelphia Eagles quarter-
back Michael Vick tweeted
Monday: Soundlike we gonna
be back to work so soon!!!
One issue standing in the
way of a resolution, according
to a person from each side of
the dispute andspeakingtothe
AP on condition of anonymity:
Players want owners to turn
over $320 million in unpaid
benefits from the 2010 season.
Because there was no salary
cap that season, the old collec-
tive bargaining agreement said
NFL teams were not required
to pay those benefits.
On a separate matter, one of
those people, as well as a sec-
ond person familiar with the
negotiations, also told the AP
that a proposal currently under
consideration would set up
nearly $1 billion over the next
10 years in additional benefits
for retired players. That would
include $620 million in pen-
sion increases, long-term care
insurance and disability pro-
grams. Representatives of re-
tiredplayers are expectedto be
in New York for Tuesdays
talks; that groupcomplainedto
the court recently that it had
been excluded from negotia-
tions.
At federal court in Minneso-
ta, where the players antitrust
suit is pending, their lawyers
filed a motion Monday asking
for a summary judgment that
the lockout is illegal and that
players are entitled to damag-
es. The NFL, meanwhile,
asked the court for a weeks ex-
tension to file their formal re-
sponse tothe lawsuit; the origi-
nal deadline was Monday.
Those filings were neces-
sary, procedural moves that
would be rendered moot if an
agreement is reached before
the Aug. 29 hearing date. Later
Monday, the NFL and retired
players filed a joint request to
delay the hearing for at least a
month to allow owners to fo-
cus on the continuing media-
tion.
Atallah called the current
players filing an obligation to
protect the members of the
class.
Obviously, if we come to a
settlement, it all canbe liftedat
any time, he said.

lead was 3-0 after three innings.
David McCue continued to

double extended Kingston/For-
ty Forts leadto 4-0 inthe fourth.

three and walked just two.
KFF
at 11 a.m. Wednesday against the
winner of the Back Mountain-
Canton game.
Our backs are against the wall
andI hopethekids comeout with
some fire (today) because now
we got nothing to lose, Plains
manager Don Stark said. We felt
goodcomingintoday, but we had
some lapses and we need to fix
those lapses.
The only inning whichRuchal-
lowed two hits was the first.
Plains only got one hit in the
third, fourth, seventh and eighth.
He struck out just four batters,
but got a lot of help from his de-
fense. The Back Mountain de-
fense turned two double-plays.
Third baseman Marc Noyalis
started one of the twin-killings
and also made a pair of back-
handed grabs to save extra bases
and get a groundout.
I had a fastball working today
and I was throwing a two-seamer
a little bit and I was getting them
tohit it intothegroundandI have
a great defense behind me which
helps a lot in a nine-inning
game, Ruch said. They (the de-
fense) has been doing it all year
behind our pitching and the
pitching thanks them a lot.
Back Mountain jumped out to
a 2-0 lead in the top of the first
when Paul Narcum (3-for-5) and
Deep Patel (2-for-3) started off
the game with back-to-back dou-
bles. Patels hit scored Narcum
and then he scored on an RBI-sin-
gle by Noyalis.
That was more than enough of-
fense for Ruch, but Back Moun-
tain was far from finished as it
scored one run in the third and
sixth and put up three in the
fourth and eighth to end the
game early.
Putting up double digit runs
and getting strong pitching is
how Plains won its first two
games of the tournament as it
played just 14 innings entering
Mondays game.
But Monday wasnt the best
game for Plains.
Starter Bob Sorokas only last-
ed three-plus innings giving up
eight hits. And Plains hurt itself
witherrors withthe defense com-
mitting three miscues.
They hit Bobby pretty well.
He didnt hit his spots like he
wanted to and we didnt help him
out defensively either, Stark
added.
Jim Graziosi was the lone mul-
tiple hitter for Plains going 2-
for-3 and had the only extra-base
hit for the team with a double.
Josh Everett (2-for-4) joined
teammates Narcum, Patel and
Ruch as multiple hitters for the
winners.

creasingly hard to pick a favorite
heading into the last week of the
Tour.
Its still abit strangebecauseI
think people still look at the
Schleck brothers as favorites,
but theyre two minutes down,
Evans said Sunday after British
sprinter Mark Cavendish won
the15th stage. So its still about
Voeckler for now. Weve got
some more hills, some more rac-
ing and a time trial to go.
Evans is third overall, 2:06 be-
hind Voeckler, 17 seconds be-
hind second-place Frank
Schleck, nine seconds ahead of
Andy Schleck the runner-up
toContador inthelast twoTours
and 1:54 ahead of Contador.
Voeckler is in incredible
form, Contador said. He has a
big lead, it will be hard to make
that up.
None of the Tour contenders
managed to cut loose in the
three Pyrenean mountain stages
last week, and someone has to
make a big move in three puni-
shing Alpine stages that loom.
I dont want to arrive in Paris
with regrets, Contador said af-
MONTPELLIER, France
Withthe Tour de France heading
toward its decisive stages, there
is still no favorite in a wide open
race that is fueling the passions
of French fans who hope Tho-
mas Voeckler holds his lead
against all odds.
When racing resumes Tues-
day after a rest day, Voeckler will
open the 16th stage nearly two
minutes ahead of Frank Schleck
supposedly a weaker rider
than his younger brother, Andy
and four minutes ahead of
three-time champion Alberto
Contador.
Voeckler remains fiercely ada-
mant he has a zero percent
chance to become the first
French Tour winner since Ber-
nard Hinault in 1985, while
doubts persist about Contadors
troublesome right knee. Even
the Schleck brothers seemunde-
cided who is No. 1on their team,
while two-time runner-up Cadel
Evans is conspicuously staying
out of the limelight.
All of this means that it was in-
ter Cavendishracedtohis fourth
stage victory of the race and
19th overall in the Tour by
beating American sprinter Tyler
Farrar on a119.6-mile stage from
Limoux to Montpellier.
There should be plenty of op-
portunities for Contador to at-
tack the 32-year-old Voeckler in
the punishing Alps later this
week. But if the Frenchmandoes
not crack, then the race is going
to be decided on the penulti-
mate stage time trial.
Not that cycling fans are com-
plaining.
Voecklers unexpected rise to
the top adds an extra layer of in-
trigue because it has been 14
years since a Frenchman even
got on the podium let alone
won the race. Voeckler has also
become an extra, surprise, and
welcome contender.
Last years Tour was a duel be-
tween Contador and Schleck,
the year before it was Contador
beating Schleck again, with sev-
en-time champion Lance Arm-
strong completing the podium.
No great surprises there, even
with Armstrongs hyped return.

Voeckler has French fans excited

NEWYORKLance Arm-
strongs attorneys say illegal
government leaks of grand ju-
ryinformationhavesulliedthe
cyclists reputation, and have
asked a court to order federal
agents to discuss their con-
tacts with the media.
In a 20-page notice of al-
leged violations filed Wednes-
day in U.S. District Court in
Los Angeles, lawyers for the
seven-time Tour de France
winner cited more than a doz-
en articles in many media out-
lets from May 2010 through
last month about an ongoing
grand jury investigation into
whether Armstrong used per-
formance-enhancing drugs in
violation of U.S. law.
Thecyclists attorneys argue
that only someone in the gov-
ernment could be responsible
for the leaks, and a judge
should order the government
toexplainwhyit shouldnot be
held in contempt. In a last re-
sort, the lawyers said, the
court couldforce journalists to
reveal their sources.
The leaker in this case has,
fromthebeginning, actedwith
the obvious intent of legitimiz-
ing the governments investi-
gation of a national hero, best
known for his role in the fight
against cancer, the court pa-
pers said. Each leak has been
designed to propagate public
support for this investigation
by smearing Armstrong and
tarnishing his reputation. The
tactical nature of these leaks
cannot be ignored as it strong-
ly suggests an underlying par-
tisanship inherent in govern-
ment agents.
Armstrongs lawyers ac-
cused The Associated Press,
The New York Times, The
Wall Street Journal, Sports Il-
lustrated and CBS 60 Min-
utes of reporting illegally
leaked information.
Oneof Armstrongslawyers,
John W.
Keker, at-
tached a
statement
detailing 26
media re-
ports that
reported
the alleged
illegal leaks.
Responding to the notice,
Lou Ferrara, APs managing
editorforsports, said: TheAP
has been aggressive in cover-
ingthis important story. APre-
porters will continuetopursue
the truth. This action will not
stop us.
FiledbythesameCalifornia-
based lawyers who represent-
ed the Major League Baseball
Players Association and suc-
ceeded in having the govern-
ments seizure of player drug
tests and records declared ille-
gal, the request for an order to
show cause asks a federal
court to require that all agents
involved in the probe provide
sworn statements detailing
their contacts with media.
The filing has 17 references
to Jeff Novitzky, a Food and
Drug Administration special
agent who, in his prior job as
anIRSspecial agent, ranthein-
vestigation into the Bay Area
Laboratory Co-Operative
(BALCO). That probe led to
theseizureof thebaseball drug
list and the indictment of
homerunkingBarryBonds. A
prosecutor, Doug Miller, is
named in the filing but no oth-
er agent. Armstrongs lawyers
say the leaker was potentially
Novitzky himself.
The leading government
advocate for the Armstrongin-
vestigation, Novitzky, was re-
cently connected to an investi-
gation riddled with leaks to
some of the same reporters in-
volved in this case and has a
documented history of overre-
aching and disregarding indi-
viduals privacy rights, Arm-
strongs lawyers wrote.
Armstrong wants feds
to discuss media talks
By RONALD BLUM
AP Sports Writer
Armstrong
SANDWICH, England Dar-
ren Clarkes bleary, bloodshot
eyes told it all.
The party began shortly after
he walked off the 18th green at
Royal St. Georges with the claret
jug in hand. Beer and red wine
flowedthroughthe night, the rev-
elry not letting up until Clarke
had to return Monday morning
for a few more interviews and
some picture-taking at the spot
where he tapped in the final putt
to win the British Open.
I have not been to bed yet,
Clarke said. I probably wont get
any sleepuntil tomorrowat some
stage. You have to enjoy it while
you can.
Its been, he added mischie-
vously, a very good night.
Clarke sure earned it.
No one had ever gone more
than15 British Opens before win-
ning. Clarke did it on his 20th try
at 42, making himthe oldest first-
time major winner since Roberto
de Vicenzo in1967.
But that only tells part of the
story. Clarke lost his wife, Heath-
er, to cancer five years ago, leav-
ing him to raise two young boys.
Not surprisingly, his focus on the
course wavered, which sent him
plummeting out of the top 100 in
the world. It had been a decade
since he was a serious contender
in a major he didnt even qual-
ify for the three majors that pre-
ceded the Open.
I definitely appreciate an aw-
ful lot more what Ive achieved,
Clarke said. Ten years ago, I did
take an awful lot of things for
granted.
His parents and new love, fian-
ceeAlisonCampbell, wereat Roy-
al St. Georges to cheer him. Clar-
kes two boys stayed home in
Northern Ireland, but he phoned
them shortly after his three-
stroke victory over Americans
Phil Mickelson and Dustin John-
son.
Tyrone, myoldest one, wasve-
ry pleased, very proud, Clarke
said. He was going to tell every-
body his dad was Open cham-
pion.
And Conor, his youngest?
He wanted to know what he
could spend all the money on,
Clarke said, breaking into a grin.
Thats not surprising. Clarke
has always been a guy who lived
life to the fullest, so its only ap-
propriate that he passed on that
attitude to his children.
Thenagain, givenall thats hap-
pened, Clarke plans to handle the
spoils of this triumph a bit more
prudently than he would have,
say, 10 years ago. His Open prize
was nearly $1.5 million, andthere
will undoubtedly be a flood of
new endorsement opportunities.
I actually dont have anything
in mind because Ive been there,
done all that before, Clarke said.
Ive had the opportunity to buy
whatever I want to buy and all
that. This time, Im a little bit ol-
der and a little bit more sensible.
If I can put a little bit more aside
for my boys future, then thats
what Ill do, as opposed to look-
ing after myself.
Clarke has long been a stalwart
of the European Ryder Cup team,
and hes made no secret of his de-
sire to serve as captain one day.
He may have to put off those am-
bitions for a few years.
Turns out, this guy can still
play.
Playing, he said, is much
better than being a nonplaying
captain.
Clarke became the third golfer
fromtinyNorthernIrelandtowin
in the last six majors, following
U.S. Open champions Rory McIl-
roy and Graeme McDowell. The
Americans havent won any dur-
ing that span, their longest
drought of the modern Grand
Slam era, though they did have
five of the top seven at Royal St.
Georges.
Mickelson played the first 10
holes Sunday at 6 under and ac-
tually claimed a share of the lead
at one point, only to fade down
the stretch when his putter fal-
tered. Johnson was in contention
again at a major but made anoth-
er huge blunder, knocking a shot
out of bounds just five holes from
the finish.
NorthernIreland...... Golf cap-
ital of the world!! McIlroy tweet-
ed, andthere will undoubtedly be
a pushtoaddthat countrys Royal
Portrush club to the rotation of
nine courses that regularly host
the British Open.
Were all very aware of the fact
that threewinners fromNorthern
Ireland increases the interest lev-
el in this, R&A chief Peter Daw-
son said Monday. I have agreed
to take a look.
In1951, Royal Portrushbecame
the only course outside Scotland
and England to hold the cham-
pionship. But the Royal & An-
cient is concerned that a lack of
hotels and major roads would
make it difficult tohost sucha big
event in the modern era.
The usual mixture of a great
course and plenty of infrastruc-
ture combined with the prospect
of commercial success is whats
needed, Dawson said.
FromClarkes point of view, the
course at Royal Portrush is al-
ready worthy of a major. But he
understands other factors must
be considered.

Lets begin by
not overstating
the case.
Predictions of
a soccer boom
in America have
done more to
hamstring the
development of the worlds game
here than all those well-orga-
nized, well-meaning parents who
became youth coaches with no
more than a vague idea of how
its played. And just so were
clear, there will be no explosion
this time, either.
After the U.S. women stunned
Brazil and just about everybody
else in a quarterfinal match at
the Womens World Cup, I wrote
that if Americans didnt fall in
love with soccer after that, well,
maybe they never would.
They did.
For exactly a week.
But thats how plenty of love
affairs go: torrid one day, indiffer-
ent the next.
Plenty of Americans already
love soccer. Anybody who doubts
that should check out the exhibi-
tions being played here this
month featuring several of Eu-
ropes top clubs among them,
Manchester United, Barcelona
and Real Madrid. Most of their
games will draw crowds that
make last weeks MLB All-Star
exhibition look like the softball
game at a company picnic.
The overnight TV rating for
the finale was 8.6, more than
tripling Sundays marquee event
for the boys the British Open
yet still finishing well behind
the 11.4 eventually posted in the
1999 cup-clinching win over
China. If you didnt get enough of
the U.S. women last week, dont
worry. Theyll be on the late-
night and early morning TV
circuit this week. Traffic on so-
cial media was more eye-popping
still, generating at its peak more
tweets-per-second than either
Britains royal wedding or the
announcement of Osama Bin
Ladens death.
But theres no need to waste
time wondering whether soccer
will ever be as popular on these
shores as the big three of foot-
ball, baseball and basketball. It
wont, for the next decade at
least, for reasons well get to
below.
Since long-term relationships
are built on learning, the better
question is what Americans
learned that they didnt know
after all the previous predictions
of booms that never material-
ized: two previous U.S. womens
cup wins (1991 and1999), play-
ing host to the mens cup in1994,
the creation of domestic leagues
for both sexes..
If were being optimistic, the
answer is this: We finally saw a
U.S. team playing a style that we
could call our own.
If asked, every coach and ball-
player will concede a team learns
more from a loss than a win. So
it was again Sunday, when a
determined Japanese team used
the same grit and hustle thats
been the hallmark of every U.S.
soccer team, men or women, on
a superior squad of Americans.
Thats how the U.S. women beat
Brazil and then in the semifinal,
France, teams that featured more
talented individuals and a better
understanding of the game.
But a funny thing happened on
the way to the final.
U.S. coach Pia Sundhage, a
Swede who played for her nation-
al team, knew only too well how
fast the gap was closing between
the American women and the
rest of the world in terms of
resources, organization and even
quality athletes. She had already
laid the groundwork for her
squad to rely less on athleticism
and more on technique; to play
the way the best of the rest of the
world does by moving the ball
quickly and accurately under
pressure.
That Sundhage moved the
strategy from the training
ground to the pitch for the big-
gest match of their careers shows
how much faith she had in this
bunch. Even more than Amer-
ican football, soccer is a game of
possession and finishing a few
scoring chances.. The U.S. wom-
en succeeded at the first task, but
came away with nothing too
many times from the opening
minute of the match through the
final penalty kick. Even so, they
came away with something.
Up until now, the closest thing
to a coherent playing style any
American squad displayed on a
world stage is what the English
used to call hit and hope. It
involves defending countless
attacks as if your life depended
on it, then booting the ball up
the field and hoping a teammate
latches onto it and somehow
beats a crowd of defenders to
score.
But this one time, even in a
loss, the U.S. women stuck their
foot in the door and let their
countrymen glimpse a wider
world of possibilities. Given their
legacy and continuing success,
its only fitting that theyd be the
first to break through soccers
glass ceiling in America. The
guess here is that youll see the
benefits as soon as next summer,
at the London Olympics, and not
just because the U.S. women will
be out for vengeance. They never
lacked for motivation and theyve
already learned the games most
important lesson.
Now its the mens turn. Its
been a black mark on their re-
cord that a nation of 300 million
has yet to produce even one
striker good enough to sit on the
bench of world powers like
Spain, Brazil, Argentina, England
or the Netherlands, let alone play
in the first team. Anyone who
thinks theyre getting their fair
share of elite athletes should
consider what the NBAs dozen
best point guards could do with a
soccer ball if they grew up play-
ing the game.
So its long past time to hope
we hit that jackpot. Its time to
start developing players who can
tame the ball with their feet,
move it and get it back with
enough time and space to carve
the same wide swath through the
World Cup as their female coun-
terparts.
There will be plenty of time
before then to start talking about
a soccer boom.
Despite U.S. run, soccer boom on hold

tobeat Brazil inthequarterfinals
in a thrilling match, and then
grindingdownFrance. But asen-
tertaining as they may be, the
Americans have been making
things harder on themselves
thanthey needtobe for almost a
year now.
They were upset by Mexico in
regional qualifying, forced to
beat Italy in a playoff to get the
very last spot in Germany. They
dropped their first game of the
season, to Sweden, then lost to
England for the first time in 22
years so long ago Morgan
hadnt even been born yet. After
winning their first two games in
Germany handily, they lost to
Sweden, thefirst U.S. losseverin
WorldCup group play.
In the past, wed always won
everything, Rampone said.
Those losses made our team
what it is today. We need each
other and you feel that, fromthe
locker room to the time we step
onthe field.
But the Americans need more
than a can-do attitude to keep
pace ina game that is improving
andevolving.
Sundhage wants the U.S. to
play a possession-oriented style
similar to the one Japan and
France worked to near perfec-
tion in Germany, saying the tra-
ditional American gameplan of
grindingopponents downonde-
fense and sending long balls up
to the forwards is too predict-
able. Theoffenseshoulddevelop
through the midfield, not start
up front. By working from flank
to center and back out with se-
ries of multiple passes, the
Americans can probe the de-
fense for weaknesses and create
moreopportunitiesincluding
chances for players who
wouldnt normally score.
The style also helps on de-
fense. Opponents cant score
whentheAmericansarekeeping
the ball for large chunks of the
game.
I thinkof it as a nice hybridof
the way the U.S. national team
usedtoplayandthewaythat the
game is evolving into much like
the mens game, a possession,
Barcelona-esque style, Wam-
bach said. It hasnt been with-

Boxx (34) are likely to call it

the Olympics are right around

Part of what has always made

SHANGHAI If China is
feeling any pressure to maintain
its superpower status in diving,
it sure isnt showinginthe world
championships.
The host country won its
fourthgoldmedal andfifthover-

thrilling fans who cheered and
chanted China! each time
their divers appeared on the
boards.
Wang Hao and Chen Ruolin
led all every round in easily win-
ning the womens 10-meter syn-
chro after Li Shixin won the
mens 1-meter springboard and
teammate He Min took the sil-
ver.
Wang and Chen totaled
362.58 points.
It was Chens third consecu-
tive world title in synchro plat-
form, including 2009 in Rome
when she also teamed with
Wang. China has won six
straight world titles in the
event.
Since Chinese diving super-
star Guo Jingjing retired in Ja-
nuary, Chen has been consid-
ered her successor.
I dont want to think too
much about it, she said. My
performancewill beaffected. Al-
though the 10-meter platform
individual gold is also impor-
tant, it is not my goal. My goal is
the London Games.
Australias Alexandra Croak
and Melissa Wu earned the sil-
ver at 325.92 their countrys
fourth runner-up finish in the
event.
It definitely built the confi-
dence that we got a medal, said
Wu, who finished second in
2007. The competition is in-
tense. Its hard sometimes when
you have to rely on someone
else to do as well as you.

Marc Tyler has been suspended
from all team activities and the
Trojans season opener for com-
ments he made to TMZ that im-
pliedhe gets paidtoplayfor USC.
When asked by TMZ whether
he could make more money at
USC or in the NFL, Tyler said,
USC, they breaking bread,
making a gesture indicating a
large stack of money.
USC coach Lane Kiffin sus-
pended his leading rusher Mon-
day for the Sept. 3 opener against
Minnesota and possibly longer.
The fifth-year senior is facing po-
tential discipline fromthe school
after what he said were two alco-
hol-related problems in April.
I am disappointed that I let
down all the people who have
supported me as I have been
working through some personal
issues, Tyler said in a statement
released by the school. I realize
how my behavior and my state-
ments, even though I was joking,
can reflect poorly on so many
people. As a veteran player, I
should know that my job is to be
an example for the younger
guys.
USC is entering the second
year of a postseason ban during
four years of NCAA probation
stemming from illegal benefits
provided to Reggie Bush.
TMZ recorded Tylers com-
ments last Thursday outside Voy-
eur, a West Hollywood nightclub.
Tyler, who turns 23 in Septem-
ber, also made a distasteful com-
ment to TMZ about Kim Kar-
dashian, Bushs ex-girlfriend.
That is not the waythat we ex-
pect our players torepresent USC
and our team, Kiffin said. Al-
though Marc may find this puni-
shment severe, it is imperative
we continue to have a high stan-
dard for player behavior. Marc
needs to work hard to show us
that he can meet the standards of
being a USC football player.
Athletic director Pat Haden
said Tyler stepped way out of
line. He did not represent him-
self, his university or his teamthe
way we expect. Marc has a lot to
do to prove he belongs on our
team. We hope Marc learns from
this and comes back a changed
and better person.
Last month, Tyler said he had
appeared before the schools Of-
fice of Student Judicial Affairs to
discuss two complaints made
against himinApril. Tyler was ac-
cused of spitting on a female stu-
dent while intoxicated, and later
touching another female student
inappropriately at a bar near
USCs downtown campus.

LONDONSecurity prepara-
tions for the 2012 Olympics will
not be harmed by the resigna-
tions of Londons top two police
officers a year before the games,
the British government said
Monday.
Scotland Yard chief Paul Ste-
phenson and Assistant Commis-
sioner John Yates, Britains top
anti-terrorist officer, have re-
signed amid an intensifying scan-
dal involving phone hacking and
alleged police bribery.
Bothindicatedthat theyquit to
ensure the police force had stable
leadership and no distractions in
the run-up to the first Olympics
inLondonsince1948, whichhave
a 757million-pound($1.2billion)
security budget.
And Olympics minister Hugh
Robertson insisted that much of
the security framework was al-
ready in place before counterter-
rorism minister Pauline Neville-
Jones left her job in May .
I am not concerned about the
resignations in relation to Olym-
pics security, Robertson said
Monday in statement to The As-
sociated Press. Pauline Neville-
Jones made a massive contribu-
tion to get this in a good place.
The appointment of Chris Alli-
son, as the Met assistant commis-
sioner in charge of all of this, has
alsoreally drivenit forward. He is
the point manonOlympic securi-
ty and I am100 percent confident
that we are where we ought to
be.
Sebastian Coe, the organizing
committee chairman for the Lon-
don Games, also said he wasnt
concerned about the resigna-
tions.

Keeping up with iPad
orders?
Apples earnings report for
its fiscal third quarter will
show whether the company
has recovered from short-
ages of its iPad. Demand for
the tablet computer has been
so strong that Apple hasnt
been able to keep up with
orders. But financial analysts
say the iPad is on track to
make more money for Apple
than the entire Mac division
by the end of the year.
Bank of America earnings
The nations largest bank is
expected to report a net loss of
$8.6 billion to $9.1 billion for
the second quarter. Thats the
result of an $8.5 billion settle-
ment with investors over poor-
quality mortgage bonds that
were sold as securities and
that went sour in the financial
crisis. Investors want to know if
theres more bad news such
as a drop in trading income
that hurt other banks revenue
during the quarter.
A gradual improvement
Economists expect the Commerce
Department to report an incremen-
tal rise in the number of homes
that builders broke ground on last
month. But the number of housing
starts will still be down from its
high point this year, in January.
And that means its likely to be
less than half the annual rate of
1.2 million thats considered a
healthy housing market. Econo-
mists agree that any significant
improvement wont happen until
unemployment falls sharply.

Debt worries hit shares
Europes banking troubles and an
impasse over lifting the U.S. govern-
ments borrowing limit dragged down
stock markets in the U.S. and Europe.
Gold rose above $1,600 an ounce as
investors sought safe places to park
money.
The results of stress tests on Europe-
an banks came under more scrutiny.
Eight banks failed the test to measure
how well they would hold up under
additional financial strain. But the tests
didnt take into account how banks
would fare if Greece or Italy defaults.In
the U.S., the debt limit debate remains
at a standstill. The limit must be raised
by Aug. 2 or the government risks a
default.

IF YOURE ONE of
the many Netflix
customers who was
put out by the an-
nouncement that
Netflix was increas-
ing prices, Block-
buster wants to make an offer you
cant refuse: If youre now a Netflix
customer, Blockbuster is offering you
a month for free, plus a slightly dis-
counted monthly rate (which is
cheaper than the equivalent Netflix
plans).
But it might be a good idea to wait
before you decide to jump ship in
righteous indignation over the villai-
nous Netflix plan the services differ
substantially.
According to Netflix, what theyve
actually done is split their DVD and
web-streaming services. So while you
were paying $9.99 per month for one
DVD at a time and unlimited stream-
ing movies, youll now end up paying
$15 per month for two services
DVD by mail at $7.99, and unlimited
streaming video for $7.99. For me,
this plan actually works out better I
have Netflix but I only use their
streaming service.
I can send off for a DVD, but Ive
never had any reason to. If you only
need their DVD service, its also
cheaper youre only paying $7.99 a
month. However, Blockbuster offers a
substantially different product that
includes Blu-Rays with its DVD
plans. Netflix charges extra not a
big deal for people who want to view
movies online, but maybe a game
changer for those of you who prefer
receiving movies in the mail. Block-
buster also includes Xbox360, Play-
station and Wii game rentals by mail
in their plans Netflix doesnt offer
the service. And Blockbuster allows
you to return and exchange videos at
a physical store location, where your
plan will net additional discounts. I
should mention that at present,
Blockbuster offers fewer titles than
Netflix. So while Netflixs increased
rates may be better or worse for you,
depending on how you use the ser-
vice, Blockbuster does offer addition-
al value for your dollar. Personally,
given how I use Netflix, it works out
better for me to stick with the ser-
vice but as always, your experience
will differ, and your mileage may
vary.

COMPARING THE PLANS
Netflix & Blockbuster try to outdeal each other
NEW YORK -- News Corp.s Rupert
Murdoch is struggling to control the
destiny of the company he began build-
ing six decades ago after a trusteddepu-
ty was arrested and Scotland Yards top
official quit over ties to a suspect in the
phone-hacking probe.
Independent directors of New York-
based News Corp. have begun question-
ing the companys response to the crisis
and whether a leadership change is
needed, said two people with direct
knowledge of the situation who
wouldnt speak publicly. Rebekah
Brooks, the former News International
chief who Murdoch backed until last
week, was arrested Sunday in London.
The shell of invulnerability that Rup-
ert Murdoch had
around him has been
cracked, said James
Post, a professor at
Boston Universitys
School of Management
who has written about
governance and busi-
ness ethics. His credibility and the
companys credibility are hemorrhag-
ing.
Murdoch and his 38-year-old son,
James Murdoch, are spending most of
their time with advisers preparing for
todays hearing before a British parlia-
mentary committee. They will face
questions over their role in and respon-
sibility for phone hacking that took
place at their now-defunct News of the
World tabloid. The company took out
advertisements in national British
newspapers this weekend to apologize
for the scandal.
Before Monday, News Corp. shares
had lost 17 percent since July 4, when
the Guardian reported that News of the
World employees had intercepted the
voice mail of Milly Dowler, a schoolgirl
who was later found murdered. The
slump has shaved more than $6 billion
off the combined value of the Class A
shares and the Class Bvoting stock that
gives the Murdochs control over the
company.
News Corp.s independent directors,
whoholdnineof 16boardseats, haveex-
pressed frustration over the quality and
quantity of information theyve re-
ceived about the scandal and concern
about managements ability to handle
the crisis given how slowly the compa-
ny has responded, the person said.
Some directors said Murdoch, the
companys 80-year-old chairman and
chief executive officer, appearedto be in
denial over the fallout from the scandal
in an interview he gave last week to the
Wall Street Journal, one of News Corp.s
newspapers.
News Corp.s independent directors,
including Dinh, Perkins and former
British Airways CEO Rod Eddington,
may have limited influence, given the
Murdochs stock holdings, said Charles
Elson, director of the John L. Weinberg
Center for Corporate Governance at the
University of Delaware.
Rupert Murdoch controls the votes
of the company through the Class B
shares, Elson said in an interview. He
can just replace them if he wants. They
may do something, but it will be tempo-
rary. Maybe he becomes chairman, but
this is still his company and he can do
what he wants. When he controls the
stock, he controls the board.

GM INVESTING IN FLINT PLANT WITH NEWTRUCKS

L
ine worker Randee Boose assembles a Chevrolet Silverado pickup Monday at the General Motors Flint
Assembly plant in Flint, Mich. GM says it will spend $328 million to update a factory in Flint that will
build new Silverado and GMC Sierra trucks. The investment will create or preserve 150 jobs at the site,
which now employs 2,047 people. The investment is part of $2 billion GM is spending to create or retain
about 4,000 jobs in eight states over the next 18 months.
ST. LOUIS As the economic re-
covery sputters forward, banks contin-
ue to bleed revenue in such mainstays
as commercial lending and, of course,
mortgages. So they are increasingly
catering to the only customers who
have survived the Great Recession rel-
atively unscathed: rich folks.
Customers with more than $1 mil-
lion in liquid assets can expect some
extracoddlingthesedays, as banks are
adding services and staff to their
wealth management divisions.
The new focus for many banks
stems largely from a simple lack of
other options as historic govern-
ment bailouts winddownandsobered
consumers and businesses grow in-
creasingly allergic tonewdebt. Nearly
a fourth of Americans are underwater
on their homes, and so wont be needi-
ng a mortgage; and starting or ex-
panding a business into the current
headwinds takes a brave and well-cap-
italized soul. Simultaneously, banks
have seen their bedrocks of revenue
from debit card and overdraft fees
eroded by new federal regulations.
By contrast, the 3.4 million people
in North America holding more than
$1 million in liquid assets actually
grew their wealth by 9.1 percent last
year, to $11.6 trillion, according to
Merrill Lynchs World Wealth Report
released last month. The number of
high-net-worth individuals in North
America has also risen, growing 8.6
percent last year.
Bank of Americas Global Wealth
and Investment Management divi-
sion, whichserves highnet worthindi-
viduals through its Merrill Lynch and
U.S. Trust business units, sawits first-
quarter revenue jump 11 percent, to
$4.5 billion.
When it released its wealth report,
Merrill Lynch said high-net-worth in-
dividuals were expected to continue
to shed their real estate investments
and increase their equity and com-
modities allocations.
So banks would be foolish not to fol-
low the money, said Joe Hoffmeyer,
principal of St. Louis-based Phoenix
Financial Services Consulting and a
former manager of First Banks wealth
management division. Everyboardof
directors of every bank in the world
wants tofocus onwealthmanagement
now, he said.
PNCBank is working onnewonline
services for its wealth management
customers so they can access income
projections on their smartphones and
contact PNCs wealth management
staff with questions about their ac-
counts via email or text message.
Those services are expected to be
rolled out by the first quarter of 2012.

Matthew Craft, Kristen Girard AP
U.S. government debt is considered one of the safest
bets around. A default would shake the confidence of in-
vestors around the world.
Economists say a default would also drive up borrowing
costs for everyone. Treasury yields would rise to compen-
sate buyers for their higher risk. Treasurys are used to set
interest rates throughout the economy. So mortgages and
borrowing by companies and local governments would be-
come more expensive for people.
Financial analysts say its nearly impossible to predict ex-
actly how a default would play out in the stock, bond and cur-
rency markets. They do say the immediate aftermath for
stocks might look like the financial crisis in September 2008. In
the month after Lehman Brothers' bankruptcy, the S&P 500
lost 28 percent.
Bonds could also fall after a default theyll have lost their
reputation for safety.
Few investments would be considered safe. Fear has
driven traders into precious metals, but gold is at $1,600 an
ounce, so its not cheap.
Some analysts say a default could freeze the short-term
lending markets that keep money moving throughout the fi-
nancial system. Treasurys and other government debt are
widely used as collateral for loans in these markets. Adefault
would shake the trust in that collateral. Lenders could respond
by demanding more. That would force borrowers to sell other
investments to meet those demands. Asimilar selling cycle
spread turmoil across markets when Lehman collapsed.
Panic selling might force Washington to quickly agree to
raise the debt limit. Think back to 2008. After the House re-
jected a bailout for banks on Sept. 29, the Dow fell 777
points. Four days later, Congress approved a bailout.

Europe's banking troubles and an impasse over
lifting the U.S. government's borrowing limit
helped drag stock prices sharply lower Monday.
The fears also sent gold prices to a record high
market price. Eight European banks failed tests
to measure how well they would hold up under
additional financial strain. The S&P 500 index
fell 0.8 percent. The Dow Jones industrial aver-
age fell 0.8 percent. The Nasdaq composite in-
dex fell 1.2 percent.

This will likely be
our hottest week
of the summer
and the peak of
the heat will
arrive on
Thursday. What
lies ahead will
not be the worst
heat wave weve
ever had which
occurred in July
back in 1936.
Thats when we
had six straight
record breaking
days with tem-
peratures rang-
ing from 95 to
103 degrees.
Today, the
chance for a
stormwill be
much less than
on Monday now
that a front has
moved south of
here. Starting
tomorrow, the
heat will intensi-
fy and on
Thursday, read-
ings here in town
could reach 100.
The above aver-
age temps
should last into
next week and
by then, Ill be
more than ready
for some relief.
- Tom Clark

NUTRITION QUIZ: Beer
Q: I was diagnosedwith
esophageal achalasia.
I didnot have anyre-
fluxissues just diffi-
cultywithfoodenter-
ingmystomach. I
havent hadanytreat-
ments inseveral years
andfoodstill hesitates at the point of
stomachentry. Is soft diet the best cure?
A: Achalasia is a coordinationproblem
withthe muscles involvedinswallowing.
Theres supposedtobe a contractionof
the lower esophageal muscles, followed
bya relaxationof the lower esophageal
sphincter as foodapproaches. If theres
damage or degenerationtothe nerves
that control all this, achalasia will result.

Q: Couldyouplease write about the
dangers of moldinthe home?
A: Molds, whichare a fungus, will grow
anywhere indoors where theres moisture.
Molds produce allergy-provokingsub-
stances, irritants andmaycontaintoxic
substances that canmake us sick. Fatigue,
headaches, wateryeyes, irritatedlungs,
shortness of breath, asthma anda myriad
of healthconditions canbe linkedto
fungal toxins.
Stachybotrys moldis consideredtobe
the prototypical toxic mold. Youmay
have seenthis greenish-blackmoldgrow-
ingoncellulose fiberboardor sheetrockin
your dampbasement. Air conditioning
ducts andwhole-house humidification
units needtobe watchedfor moldas well.
If youve foundmoldinyour home, its
not important toidentifythe type of
mold. Treat all moldas beingpotentially
harmful. The first thingthat needs tobe
done is tofixor cleanupanyleaks, and
put a dehumidifier unit inyour home. Its
impossible toget ridof all moldandmold
spores; some spores are airborne. For

of participants and points
scored.
Supporters are asked to visit
www.statefarm.com/gotobat,
select American Lung Associ-

Parentsseekinghealthierres-
taurant meals for their kids can
start to look beyond chicken
nuggets and macaroni-and-
cheese. At least 19 restaurant
chains including Burger
King, Chilis, Outback Steak-
house, Cracker Barrel, Dennys
and Friendlys said Wednes-
day that they will include
healthier options on their chil-
drens menus. At least 15,000
restaurant locations will in-
creaseservingsof fruitsandveg-
etables, lean proteins, whole
grains and low-fat dairy. The
items will have less fats, sugars
andsodium.
Less healthy foods like burg-
ers and fries will still be on the
menu, but the restaurants say
they will do more to promote
healthier options. Chilis, for ex-
ample, will highlight a chicken
sandwich with a side of pineap-
ple or mandarin oranges on
their kids menu. Burger King
has recently reformulated chil-
drens chicken nuggets so they
include less sodium, and em-
ployees taking orders will now
ask if customers want healthier
apple fries instead of the stan-
dardfries withthat?
Theeffort is part of anewNa-
tional Restaurant Association
initiative. To be part of the pro-
gram, restaurants must include
atleastonekids menuitemthat
is 600 calories or less and meet
other nutritional requirements.
Aside dish worth less than 200
calories must also be included.
The federal government will
also soon require restaurants to
post calories ontheir menus.
Eateries will improve kids menus
By MARY CLARE JALONICK
Associated Press
The womeninside the Webster Groves,
Mo., studio looked as though they were
channeling Muhammad Ali, Mikhail Ba-
ryshnikov and any of a dozen Hollywood
starlets who have long lean torsos (think
Gwyneth Paltrow).
They stood, feet apart, abdomens
sucked in, punching the air with their
right fists. Their left hands were raised to
their left ear in a protective manner as in-
structor Kristin Dabney egged them on.
Cellphones, ladies. Keep your left
hand up near your ear, she yelled over
thumping music. Punch punch punch
punch.
The air inside The Scoop A Pilates
Studio was taking a brutal beating.
Piloxing is the latest group cardio exer-
cise craze. Its an interdisciplinary pro-
gram that combines the sculpting and
flexibilityof Pilates withthe power, speed
and agility of boxing. It also adds a
healthy dose of dance moves including
hip-hop, salsa and especially ballet, re-
quiring immense core strength, balance
and coordination.
In Pilates, all movement should begin
in what practitioners call the powerhouse
the hips, abs, lower and upper back,
buttocks and inner thighs and flow
outward to the limbs. That explains why
many of Piloxings moves have controlled
ballet-like movements that work the low-
er body.
WhenJosephPilates createdhis fitness
program in the early 20th century, he ini-
tially calledit Contrology andhis first stu-
dents were dancers who helped build on
his ideas. Coincidentally, or not, Piloxing
was created by Viveca Jensen, a Swedish
dancer and trainer to Hollywood celebri-
ties, to physically and mentally empow-
er women through fitness.
St. Louis Fitness Club on Hampton
Avenue, Main Street Gym in St. Charles
and the Jewish Community Center in
Creve Coeur and Chesterfield also offer
Piloxing classes.
During the Piloxing class at Scoop,
Dabney led the class through a routine
that went fromboxing andhip hop moves
to squatting with the knees turned out in-
toa modifiedplie, as inballet. Thepartici-
pants raised their left legs repeatedly in a
controlled manner, first out in front, then
to the side and finally to the back, until
lactic acid burned in their right thighs.
Then they switched to the other side and
did the same.
Sometimes they raninplace withchop-
py, rapid-fire foot falls while punching so
quicklythat their hands were practicallya
blur. Several women wore weighted
gloves to help further tone the arms and
maximize the cardiovascular effects.
Pilates movement fundamentals help
you find your balance and recruit your
muscles more efficiently, said Dabney.
But there was one woman at the JCC
who is a workout fanatic, and she said ev-
ery muscle in her body was sore the next
day. You recruit a whole set of muscles
you dont use in other workouts.
She compares building muscles with
Pilates and Piloxing to opening a Russian
nesting doll from the inside out you
start by working the small internal mus-
cles in the core which help with balance
and move outward to larger muscle
groups.
Andas we age, that element of balance
becomes morecritical soits prettyimpor-
tant for everybody, she said.

LOOKINGFOR a holistic way
to reduce stress, cholesterol and
obesity? Get a pet. Statistics
show that 62 percent of Ameri-
can households own a pet. Ac-
cording to a national survey,
most pet owners say companion-
ship, love, company and affec-
tionaretheNo. 1benefits toown-
ing a pet.
We know that pets make good
companions and decrease loneli-
ness, but numerous studies have
shown other profound health
benefits of owning a pet:
1. Pets help recovery from
heart attacks. A National Insti-
tutes of Health study of 421
adults found that dog owners
had a better one-year survival af-
ter a heart attack, compared to
those who did not own dogs.
2. Pets help us calm down. A
study of 240 married couples
showed that pet owners had low-
er heart rates and blood pressure
as compared to those without
pets.
3. Pets help reduce stress bet-
ter than our human companions.
Pet owners had less stress and
quicker recovery from stress
when they were with their pets
as compared to when they were
with their spouse or friend.
4. Pet owners have less obesi-
ty. A study looking at 2,000
adults found that pet owners
who walked their dogs had less
rates of obesity and were more
physically active than those
without pets.
5. Pet owners have better mo-
bility in their golden years. An-
other NIHstudy looking at 2,500
adults aged 71-82 showed that
adults who regularly walked
their dogs had more mobility in-
side the house thannon-pet own-
ers.
6. Pets increase opportunities
for socialization. Many studies
have shown that walking a dog
leads to more conversations and
socialization.
7. Pets can help your choleste-
rol. TheCenters for DiseaseCon-
trol and Prevention states that
owning a pet can decrease cho-
lesterol, triglycerides and blood
pressure.
8. Pets can help comfort chil-
dren. Child psychologists have
found that pets can be very com-
fortingtochildrenandhelpthem
developempathy. Theyhavealso
been found to help autistic chil-
dren with socialization.
So for those of you with pets,
continue to enjoy the hidden
health benefits of your furry
friends. And for those of you
thinking of getting one do so.
Pet ownership may be a path
to your good health.

Selecting a healthier version
of ice cream can be confusing
with all the options in todays
stores. Heres some advice from
Gloria Tsang, a registered diet-
itianandauthor of the newbook
Go Undiet:
Go easy on premium ice
cream. Premium means higher
fat typically, between 250 and
280 calories per serving com-
pared to 180 calories for regular
ice cream. Thats not necessarily
badif youcankeepportionsizeto
about half a cup. But choose a
lower-fat version if you need sev-
eral scoops to be happy.
Dont write off low-fat prod-
ucts. If you tried one of these ice
creams years ago and hated it,
try again. New whipping tech-
nology has made many brands
much creamier.
Avoid mix-ins and syrups.
Extra toppings add up quickly:
an ounce of chocolate syrup
adds 75 calories, for example,
while a blob of whipped cream
might be another 45.
Skipthe shakes. Large milk-
shakes from fast-food and chain
restaurants can pack as many as
1,500 calories. They also tend to
be loaded with fat, sugar and
even salt.
Try ice cream alternatives.
Frozen yogurt and gelato typi-
callyare made withmilkinstead
of cream, which can save 40 to
50 calories per half cup. Most
sherbet (about 105 calories per
half cup) and sorbet (about 100
calories) is made of fruit puree,
sugar and water; sorbet is milk-
free, while sherbet has low-fat
milk added. Choose one that
lists fruit puree as the first or
second ingredient.

AreYou Suffering With Pain,Tingling, or
Numbness inYour Feet or Ankles?
Do what Ed Labatch didHe Called The Neuropathy Center!
FREE
Consultation
I had very little feeling in my
legs and feet that I couldnt even
drive. After treatment at the Neu-
ropathy Center I can not only
drive again but enjoy life like I
used to without pain.
I had neuropathy in my legs and had very little
feeling to the point that I couldnt even drive my car.
I suffered for about three years. I couldnt stand very
long or do many of the regular activities that I loved
to do with my wife. I found that I sat around a lot.
After meeting with the professional staff at the
Neuropathy Center I knew that there was hope for
me.
After just my second treatment I felt life in my legs
again. I couldnt believe it!
My experience has been terric! Now my wife Betty
and I can continue to enjoy our active life doing the
things we love including Polka dancing!!
I would highly recommend anyone who is suffering
from Neuropathy pain to make an appointment
today.Their caring staff were never to busy to answer
any & all of my questions in fact we always look
forward to our visit.

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: I loaned
money to a couple
of family members
when I was overseas.
They had fallen
behind on their
bills, so I sent them
each $1,000 to get
caught up.
Its two years later, and I have yet to
see a dime from either one of them. I
have sent them both letters asking to
have some money paid back; both
sent me excuses about why they cant
pay anything. However, on Facebook
they write about how they went shop-
ping, joined a gym and so on. What
can I do to get this settled?
Taken Advantage of in Minnesota
Dear Taken Advantage Of: Try this
... post on your Facebook page: Its
funny what short memories some
people have. I loaned Tom and Geri
$1,000 two years ago when they
fell behind on some bills. Instead of
repayment, I have received nothing
but excuses and all the while I
see their postings about shopping at
the mall and going to the gym. What
DEADBEATS!
Maybe it will shame your relatives
into paying up.
Dear Abby: Do I have to stop wear-
ing my wedding ring? My husband
died three years ago. We had been
married 53 years and 12 days. Abby,
I pledged until death do us part. I
just cant seem to make myself take
off the ring he put on my finger so
many years ago.
Im tired of being told that I have
to give up something so precious
to me. Is there a time limit, or is it
OK for me to go ahead with wearing
the ring and ignore the people who
pester me about taking it off? Maybe
a time will come when Ill want to,
but not now, not yet. Please give me
some sound advice.
Arizona Widow
Dear Widow: Please accept my sym-
pathy for your loss. Widows and wid-
owers usually remove their wedding
ring at the point when they decide
they would like to begin dating again.
When they do, some of them choose
to move the ring from their left to the
right hand. Others put it away as a
treasured keepsake.
There is no set time at which your
wedding ring must come off. If and
when you feel the time is right, it will
happen or not.
Dear Abby: Im 15 years old, and Im
afraid to kiss! I wont date anyone be-
cause Im afraid my kiss will suffer by
comparison. I know no one becomes
an expert without practice, but I dont
want anyone to be my first kiss.
Several guys are into me, but I
cant date them because eventually
theyll want to kiss. It would be so
embarrassing to be horrible at it. Any
advice?
Too Freaked Out to Make Out
Dear Freaked Out: Kissing isnt a
competitive sport, so stop worry-
ing that you wont measure up. A
kiss doesnt have to be the way its
portrayed in the movies, with heavy
breathing and mouths agape. Wheth-
er a guy wants to kiss you isnt as im-
portant as whether you WANT him to
kiss you. If you do, all you have to do
is close your eyes, tilt your head a bit
to the side and lean in. He will take
care of the rest.

Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447.
(Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You
know how to deal with passion-
ate, intemperate people, and
youll use this knowledge to suc-
ceed. Youll read the signs and
stay your distance until you feel
kindness beckoning you forward.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Some
are content to kill time, but you
will strive for a much more ami-
cable arrangement. You want
time to favor you, to stop for you
once in a while, and of course,
you want to be able to borrow
from it when you come up short.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Youll
have a grievance or two. Some
of the people around you need
a wakeup call, and youre the
alarm clock. Once you get a few
things off your chest, youll enjoy
yourself much better.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Let
the little joys add up while you
let the little disappointments slip
into the cracks. This is pretty
easy. All you have to do is catch
the joys and hold on to them so
that your hands are too full to
clasp any negativity.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You some-
times equate wealth with hard
work, but the reality is that often
it doesnt happen that way at all.
Stay open to the possibility that
good fortune may come without
effort.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your
body may send you signals that
are more intelligent than those
your mind sends. You will stum-
ble upon an arrangement that is
a perfect fit for you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Youre
very independent now, and you
refuse to get carried away with
anyone elses ideology. The oth-
ers want you on their side, but
you feel an even stronger calling
to do your own thing.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Busy
people are the toughest to
attract. Whether the relationship
is business or personal, the rule
is the same: The other person
has to have room for you; other-
wise, it wont work.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Visit face to face whenever pos-
sible. You never know where
the conversation will lead. Youll
likely wind up doing something
thats slightly out of character
for you but so much fun!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You
have a personal stake in what
youre doing. As for the oth-
ers, they may need help getting
involved. Invite them to increase
their level of participation.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Malls and casinos are purposely
designed for visitors to get lost
in them. This day will seem simi-
larly patterned to delight, dis-
tract and tempt you away from
your original plans.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You
may rise with a conflict already
brewing in the recesses of your
mind. Two ideas are at war with
each other. You always have a
right to adapt and change your
position.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (July 18).
You quickly learn what you
need to learn in order to make a
situation work. This may mean
communicating differently with
someone or adding new skills
to your arsenal. Capricorn and
Sagittarius people adore you.
Your lucky numbers are: 3, 15,
49, 11 and 26.

Dear Abby: Keep-
ing It Real in Laguna
Beach, Calif. (May
27), who is embar-
rassed by the dialects
of his Southern
relatives, should
learn some Southern
hospitality! Yes, we may say Ma and
Pa, yall, yonder and I reckon,
but we would not laugh or be embar-
rassed if a California relative came
to visit. Wed be overjoyed and
welcoming.
K.I.R., get off your high horse and
get over yourself! If you visited, wed
show you around town, take you to
see friends and relatives, and smother
you with affection. Wed have big fam-
ily gatherings, sit on the front porch
and drink lemonade. We would never
ridicule your different accent.
Come spend some time with us
hicks. We welcome everyone and
are glad to have you. Well serve you
white gravy and homemade butter-
milk biscuits, pecan pie and sweet
tea. And when you leave, well give
you a big, air-constricting hug and
some sugar (Southern slang for
kisses) and say, Yall come back now,
ya hear?
Georgia Girl
Dear Georgia Girl: To heck with
K.I.R. invite me! Youll be
pleased to know your fellow south-
erners came out in force against
K.I.R.s uppity attitude. Read on:
Dear Abby: Keeping It Real is liv-
ing in a fantasy world a sad one at
that. Our country is made up of all
kinds of people. How can he not see
the charm in a simple, down-home ac-
cent? Using different regional phrases
or expressions doesnt make a per-
son stupid or uneducated a fact
K.I.R. might understand if he were
more educated himself.
I adore my Southern heritage. I
love being able to tell the difference
between the drawl of someone from
the Carolinas versus the Cajun tones
of folks from Louisiana. Theres rich-
ness to those voices. You can almost
hear the history by listening to
someone speak. Id much rather hear
about Ma and Pa than be repeatedly
subjected to words like dude or
gnarly. All I can say to K.I.R. is
bless your heart!
Proud Belle in Arkansas
Dear Abby: Why would K.I.R. as-
sume that because his Southern fam-
ily doesnt live in an uneducated
area, their accents are fake? His
generalizations show how little he
knows about the rich and varied
Southern culture. He should read
Tennessee Williams, Eudora Welty or
Truman Capote, or watch a documen-
tary about the South. In other words,
educate HIMSELF to keep from com-
ing off as embarrassingly shallow in
front of his relatives.
Southern Yankee in Texas
Dear Abby: Im guessing the country
folk are having fun with him. I have
a masters degree in English and can
quote Milton and Yeats. But around
snobs like this, Id go all Jed Clam-
pett so fast hed think hes been slog-
walloped by a she-critter without no
young-uns.
Brian in North Carolina
Dear Abby: That fool can kiss my
grits!
Kaye in Virginia
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Southern readers rise in force to defend their use of the word yall
To receive a collection of Abbys most
memorable and most frequently re-
quested poems and essays, send a busi-
ness-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus
check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in
Canada) to: Dear Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box
447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage
is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You
have terrific social instincts.
Youre likely to pull a quality
new friend into your world just
because you were the one who
said hi when no one else did.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Osho,
a great spiritual teacher of the
20th century, said that all artis-
tic activity is on the way toward
becoming religious. Today your
creativity will lead you to a
sacred place in your own soul.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You may
have trouble relating to some-
one until you broaden your base
of acceptable commonalities.
You are of the same species on
the same planet, and there is
enough to agree on right there.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Being
loved by another person is not
nearly as fulfilling as loving
another person. You will be hap-
pily occupied in the activities
that demonstrate your affection.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You know
that by engaging a passionate
person who is already in a cer-
tain kind of mood, you are asking
for trouble. However, as a risk-
taker, you may find it irresistible
anyway.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Sure,
there are aspects of your history
that you tend to glamorize. And
yet, it is your firm opinion that
the future will hold ever-more
amazing treasures.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You
deserve to deal strictly with
people of integrity. Therefore,
the ones who tell you to buy
what you dont need have to go.
Also, theres no time to entertain
those who wouldnt do the same
for you.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The one
who said truth does not blush
was not paying close enough
attention. The truth can be very
uncomfortable to hear today,
and it will provoke a visceral
response.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
People are talking about you
and saying just what you wanted
them to say. But this should
come as no surprise to you.
Youve been working pretty dili-
gently to form a certain public
image, and now your work is
paying off.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Once a stressful situation passes
or a problem is resolved, you will
feel better than new. Indeed, you
will be better than new, having
grown in strength and confi-
dence from the experience.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). What
you physically can or cannot do
might affect your plan and your
thinking. But dont let it affect
your opinion of yourself.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Avoid
twisting yourself up into a knot
to prove how flexible and willing
to please you are. Instead, walk
tall. Its better to err on the side
of rigidity now.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (July 19).
Your tenacity and stamina are
marvelous attributes that youll
apply to remarkable feats.
Through the next five weeks,
good fortune comes by way of
community projects and sales.
Youll be shown affection and will
enjoy a large number of friends
and acquaintances. Libra and
Gemini people adore you. Your
lucky numbers are: 8, 20, 14, 12
and 30.
