WASHINGTON After
weeks of intense partisanship,
Republican congressional lead-
ers and the White House made a
last-minute stab at compromise
Saturday to avoid a government
default threatened for early next
week.
But there was no undisputed
evidence of progress by days
end, only expressions of anxiety
among lawmakers that a poten-
tially crippling blow to the na-
tions economy was drawing un-
comfortably close. The deadline
for raising the nations debt limit
and averting an unprecedented
U.S. default was just three days
away.
We are nowfully engaged, the
speaker and I, with the one per-
son in America out of 307 million
people who can sign a bill into
law, Senate Republican leader
Mitch McConnell said at a joint
news conference with House
Speaker John Boehner.
Im confident and optimistic
that were going to get an agree-
ment in the very near future and
resolve this crisis in the best in-
terests of the American people.
But McConnells upbeat as-
sessment triggered an unusually
pointed rebuttal fromSenate Ma-
jority Leader Harry Reid.
Thats not true, said the Ne-
vada Democrat after returning

Heres what you need to get started raising chickens at home:
Chick brooder: A cardboard box or small cage for keeping chicks in their first 60
days of life, lined with wood shavings or newspaper.
Light bulb with reflector: For keeping chicks warm. Chicks should be kept at 90
to 100 degrees until their feathers grow in.
Water dispenser and feeder: Special food is available for chicks and adult chick-
ens. Adult chickens will also eat vegetables, bread, insects and a treat called chicken
scratch.
Chicken Coop and wire enclosure: The rule of thumb is 2 to 3 square feet per
chicken inside the henhouse and 4 to 5 square feet per chicken in an outside run.

POLICE BLOTTER
ALLENTOWNIt has been12 years
since Pennsylvania executed a convicted
killer, but inthat time, deathrowhas still
cost taxpayers more than $27 million.
Every year, the state Department of
Corrections spends an estimated
$10,000 more for each inmate on the
countrys fourth largest death row com-
paredtoother prisoners. Thats despite a
de facto halt on capital punishment in
Pennsylvania for all but prisoners who
voluntarily go to their executions.
Thelast personput todeathagainst his
will was in1962, half a century ago.
The most recent to be executed, in
1999, was Philadelphiatorture-murderer
Gary Heidnik and only because he
bowedto it by waiving his appeals. Since
then, thestatehashousedonaverage227
inmates a year facing death sentences,
for an additional cost of $27.24 million,
or $2.27 million annually. And this when
executions have ceased.
The numbers, providedafter a request
by The Morning Call, offer a peek into
the expense of a systemin which a death
row prisoner is far more likely to die of
oldage or illness thanby lethal injection.
They represent the added security costs
involved with isolating the inmates in
prison. But they are just a fractionof cap-
ital punishmentstotal cost fortaxpayers,
given the staggering legal bills also tied
to putting someone to death.
The accounting comes as unsteady fi-
nances have rocked Pennsylvania and lo-
cal governments, causing layoffs and
cuts to services that have affected every-
thing from safety-net programs for the
poor to public schools and higher educa-
tion. The Department of Corrections
budget, at $1.86 billion, re-
mained flat this year.
The death penalty hasnt
been part of the budget de-
bate, though some lawmak-
ers sayit shouldbelookedat
considering the lack of exe-
cutions. Other states have
reconsidered capital puni-
shment in part over its ex-
pense, including New Jer-
sey, New Mexico and Illi-
nois, which have repealed
the deathpenalty inthe past
four years.
For death-penalty oppo-
nents, the price tag under-
scores how much society
spends in the unreasonable expectation
of exactingtheultimatepunishment. For
supporters, it shows how a runaway ap-
peal process has kept murderers from
their deservedfates, thwartingthewill of
juries and state lawmakers.
Theres either going to be a retreat on
thedeathpenalty, oraneffort toput more
of these people to death, depending on
the political will, said Northampton
County District Attorney John Morga-
nelli, aDemocrat whois avocal backer of
capital punishment. Somethings got to
give.
Morganelli blames delays in imposing
death sentences on the federal appeals
process, whichhe calls a frustratingsys-
tem. There, cases affirmed by the state
courts get scrutinized and often re-
versed. He says it may take turnover on
the federal bench for executions to start
again.
Inmates on death row should have
been gone a long time ago, and it
wouldnt becostingthestateall thismon-
ey, Morganelli said.
Marc Bookman, a former public de-
fender who runs the nonprofit Atlantic
Center for Capital RepresentationinPhi-
ladelphia, which advises capital defense
teams, dubs Pennsylvanias death penal-
ty the biggest waste of money imagina-
ble, draining away funds that could be
better spent on more police officers, im-
proving education or building play-
grounds and keeping libraries open. He
thinksthestateshouldeliminatethecost
completely by repealing the deathpenal-
ty.
We cannot continue to
spend this absurd amount of
money and waste these in-
credible resources just so
that some politician can be
tough on crime, Bookman
said. The death penalty
cant be justified.
Pennsylvanias modern
capital punishment statute
dates to 1978, after earlier
laws were struck downas un-
constitutional in the 1970s.
Under it, the death penalty
can be imposed by a jury in
cases of first-degree murder
with at least one aggravating
circumstance, such as multi-
ple victims, or the killing of a child or a
police officer. The alternative is life in
prison without parole.
About 215 state inmates face death
sentences today.
Death row inmates are held in three
prisons: Greene and Graterford for men,
andMuncyfor women. Theyareisolated
in separate cells, in the most restrictive
conditions the prison system has. For
two hours a day they are let out for exer-
cise but alone in a cage.
The heightened security, to protect
guards and other inmates, is labor inten-
sive and pushes up costs, said state cor-
rections spokeswoman Susan
McNaughton. The inmates require addi-
tional staff whenever they are escorted
out of their cells, or when they are trans-
ported outside of prison for court. The
conditions follow the industry standard
for death rows in the United States, she
added.
The Department of Corrections says it
costs $33,000 a year for the average pris-
oner; with death row, the number reac-
hes $43,000.
The inmates get televisions, radios
and reading materials. They can have
one non-contact visitor for one hour a
week, and one 15-minute phone call. Be-
yond dealings with staff, human interac-
tion is sparse: They communicate with
other inmates by yelling from their cells
or fishing bytyinganotetotheendof a
string and flinging it to neighboring
cells.
By comparison, an inmate serving a
life sentence is housed in the prisons
general population, where restrictions
are raised or lowered based on his or her
behavior. There, prisoners usuallyhavea
cellmateandcanbebunkedwithasmany
as sevenothers indorm-style units. They
spend most of their time outside their
cells, and are required to work, attend
classes or volunteer, McNaughton said.
Death row just requires the strictest
of housing available, McNaughtonsaid.
It goes backtothefact theyarethemost
maximumsecurity level we have.
Given the breadth of the appeal proc-
ess, the average death row prisoner has
beenthere141/2years. Thelongest serv-
ing is Mumia Abu-Jamal, under a capital
sentence for nearly 28 years for the 1981
murder of a Philadelphia policeman. His
legal saga continues, witha federal court
in April ordering a newsentencing hear-
ing after finding the instructions given
his original jury were unclear.
The length and contentiousness of ap-
peals has critics who include the chief
justice of the state Supreme Court, Ro-
nald Castille. In a blistering opinion in
April, Castille assailedtactics by defense
attorneys that he saidaimedtoobstruct
capital punishment inPennsylvaniaat all
costs.
Defense attorneys for capital cases
notethat manyinmatesslatedtodiehave
seen their sentences overturned at ap-
peal. That includessixmeninPennsylva-
nia who were eventually exonerated, ac-
cording to the Death Penalty Informa-
tion Center, a nonprofit national clearin-
ghouse.
Since 1983, another 115 death row in-
mates have been resentenced to life in
prison without parole after appeals. And
12 more wound up with even lesser sen-
tences, statistics kept by the state De-
partment of Corrections show.
In that time, 29 inmates on death row
died 23 from natural causes, three
from suicide, and three by execution af-
ter they voluntarily abandoned legal
challenges to their sentences.
Some Pennsylvania legislators are
questioningwhether thedeathpenaltyis
working as intended. And before he left
office in January this year, Gov. Ed Ren-
dell, a death penalty supporter and a for-
mer Philadelphia district attorney, said
that if executions cannot be streamlined,
the state should consider whether capi-
tal punishment should be repealed.

gram to fight child hunger in North-
eastern Pennsylvania.
During August, the bank will be
collecting non-perishable food items
and monetary donations at its 21
branches in Lackawanna, Luzerne,
Monroe and Wayne counties for CEOs
Backpack Program.
The program provides emergency
food assistance for children during the
weekends or other times when school
is not in session. The food is placed in
backpacks for students to carry home
and removes the stigma a child might
experience by carrying home a bag of
groceries. The filled backpacks will be
provided through local schools, church-
es and after-school programs, reducing
the delay between parents receiving a
referral to a food pantry, getting to the
pantry and preparing the food at home.
Donations suitable for the program
include individual-size items of: grano-
la/cereal bars; dry milk powder; in-
stant breakfast/oatmeal; fat-free pud-
ding; unsweetened apple sauce; Jello
with fruit; peanut butter and jelly; 100
percent fruit juice boxes; dried fruit;
crackers; canned good; and macaroni
and cheese.

Four Luzerne County post offices are
on a list of branches to be reviewed for
possible closure or consolidation that
was issued last week by the U.S. Postal
Service, but that doesnt mean their
fates are sealed.
Thats the point Postal Service offi-
cials are trying to make days after they
released a list of nearly 3,700 post offic-
es tobe studiedfor performance andpo-
tential closure.
The branches are mostly in rural ar-
eas but some are in larger cities includ-
ing Philadelphia, New York and Chica-
go. Locally, they include the Rock Glen
and Weston post offices, the only two
situated in Black Creek Township;
Beach Haven, Salem Township and the
one in Cambra, Huntington Township.
Post offices in every state but Dela-
ware are on the list, but Postal Service
officials repeatedly said that inclusion
on the list is not a guarantee that a post
office will close.
And past actions resulting following
the release of previous lists bear that
out.
Raymond Daiutolo Sr., a regional
Postal Service spokesman, noted that
the postal service announced in Janu-
ary it was reviewing 1,400 offices for
closing. So far 280 have been closed and
200 have finished the review process
and will remain open. Of the remainder,
620 are still in the review process and
300 will move to the new review list.
Daiutolo said the latest list was gen-
erated using some very sophisticated
criteria including sales, foot traffic, lo-
cation and proximity to other post offic-
es. The list was sent to district officials
who are now tasked with conducting a
more thorough study on each of the
branches.

SCRANTON Roman Catholics have
regained the ability to purchase items
from The Guild store without making
a trip to Scranton, thanks to a new on-
line option offered by the 71-year-old
purveyor of religious items. The move
restores a convenience lost over the last
two decades as six branch stores
throughout the 11-county Diocese of
Scranton were shut down to save mon-
ey.
People have asked for this, store
General Manager Trish Morrow said.
Were basically hoping to make it eas-
ier for people to shop if they arent able
to come to Scranton.
The Guild was established in Scran-
ton by Bishop William Hafey in 1940. It
offers Catholic books, church goods and
religious articles for both clergy and lay-
persons. It expanded over the years,
moving to a larger Scranton Wyoming
Avenue location with 7,500 square feet
in 1958, and setting up smaller branch
stores in six locations.
The last of those branches closed a
decade ago, Morrow said.
Hazleton, Carbondale and William-
sport locations were closed around
1992, Morrowsaid, Wilkes-Barre, Tan-
nersville and Allentown were closed in
2001.
The new website, www.shoptheguil-
d.org, offers several thousand items,
Morrow said. A substantial amount, but
a far cry from about 65,000 in the Scran-
ton stores database. The plan is to keep
adding items to the online outlet.
The online option became possible
only in the last two years, after the
Guild got new computers that could
handle the work, Morrow said. Once
they were installed, the website had to
be built and offerings cataloged onto it.
The diocese formally announced the
new site in Thursdays edition of its
newspaper, The Catholic Light, but
Morrow said the site has been up and
running for several weeks.
Its too soon to judge the success,
Morrow noted, but she cited national
statistics that show the percentage of
shopping being done online is growing
by double digits.
Its off to a good start, she added.

After having the pi-

ed to part with the instrument, but
rather than ship it off to an uncertain
future, she preferred to sell it face-to-
face to someone who might love it as

WILKES BARRE Pet owners
braved the heat and sun on Saturday
afternoon for some doggone fun for a
good cause. The event held in the
parking lot of Chackos Bowling Alley
included a low cost rabies clinic that
offered the vaccination for $10 per cat
or dog and a pet beauty contest.
All of the proceeds for the event
benefit the Feral Cat Neutering Pro-
gram, a Luzerne based nonprofit or-
ganization devoted to controlling the
staggering population of stray cats.
The organization works to trap the
strays humanely and take them to the
programs surgical facility where the
cats are tested for feline leukemia
and AIDS and then spayed or neu-
tered. The cats are also treated for
ear mites and fleas and are given ra-
bies vaccinations before being return-
ed to their original location in the
wild.
The bulk of the money raised is
dedicated to purchasing the AIDS
and leukemia testing, the most costly
part of the process.

HARRISBURG Before Ja-
nuary, Democrats often por-
trayed the Senate Republican
majority as extremists bent on
gutting programs crucial to
Pennsylvania or blocking com-
mon-sense proposals. This year,
with the GOP freshly in control
of the governors office and the
House of Representatives, the
same Senate majority and its
same leaders are broadly viewed
as the voice of moderation at a
time conservatives are increas-
ingly flexing their muscles.
It wouldnt surprise me to
hear them say, We didnt move
an inch. Were the pole that the
rest of them are rotating around
and were staying where we were
and staying the course and stick-
ing to principles our caucus be-
lieves in, said David Patti, the
president and CEO of the Penn-
sylvania Business Council, a
business advocacy group.
Its all about your perspective.
Conservative grumbling this
year about the Senate GOP is
well-known if relatively mut-
ed since the budget became law
a month ago and their leaders
are considered by some Demo-
crats and liberal groups to be the
most accessible, if not sympa-
thetic, in Republican-controlled
Harrisburg.
For anyone looking for differ-
ences between the Senate, the
House and the governor, theres
this: Many of the Senates 30
members were first elected well
before the tea party wave last
year helped usher Corbett and 21
House GOP freshmen into of-
fice. In fact, the newest Repub-
lican senators joined the cham-
ber in 2009.
Their districts are larger and
more diverse than those of
House members. And, institu-
tionally, theyve been in the ma-
jority for practically three dec-
ades, putting them at the nego-
tiating table for every
budget and major bill as
Republican and Demo-
cratic governors came
and went.
Rick Bloomingdale,
president of Pennsylva-
nias AFL-CIO, didnt
want to stick a label on
the Senate Republicans,
but he said that theyve
learned to listen to all
sides of a debate after so
many years in leader-
ship.
They arent at the
point where they put
ideology above the
facts, Bloomingdale
said. They understand
that, in order to govern, you
have to respect all opinions.
Theyve also had a few high-
profile splits with Corbett or
House leaders, if only in rheto-
ric. For instance, Senate Presi-
dent Pro Tempore Joe Scarnati,
R-Jefferson, a few days ago chal-
lenged the wisdomof privatizing
the state-controlled liquor store
system, a top priority of Corbett
and House Republican leader
Mike Turzai.
Senate Republicans, including
one of its foremost conserva-
tives, Blair Countys John Eichel-
berger, reject the suggestion that
they are any less conservative
than Corbett or the House.
The chambers Republican
leader, Sen. Dominic Pileggi of
Delaware County, said that con-
clusion flatly doesnt fit the re-
sults of legislative activity over
the last six months.
I think the facts actually ar-
gue in the opposite direction,
Pileggi said.
Several key Republican prior-
ities became law with the sup-
port of the Senate GOP. Those
included a budget that cut
spending and did not raise taxes,
as well as bills to expand a per-
sons right to use deadly force in
self-defense; expand the author-
ity of the Corbett administration
to make changes to programs for
the poor and disabled; and scale
back the liability of some civil
court defendants in negligence
cases, the top priority of busi-
ness advocates.
Still, Senate Republi-
cans pressed for more
money in a budget that
slashed about $1.1 bil-
lion frompublic schools
and universities and
passed without a single
Democrat in support.
And with Republicans
looking to toughen reg-
ulations governing
abortion clinics, the
Senate passed a bill
that was less stringent
than a bill that passed
the House, although
each bill won nearly
half of the Democrats
votes.
Kevin Harley, a spokesman for
Corbett, said Senate Republi-
cans have helped the governor
pursue his top priority: creating
an environment in which busi-
nesses and payrolls can grow.
The governor is interested in
results, Harley said. Hes not
interested in labels.
For now, it remains to be seen
whether more key Corbett prior-
ities such as privatizing li-
quor stores and creating a sys-
tem of taxpayer-paid vouchers to
send children to private schools
can get through the Senate or,
for that matter, the House.
One conservative, Lowman
Henry of the Harrisburg-based
Lincoln Institute of Public Opin-
ion Research, said he has more
confidence in Corbett and House
GOP leaders.
Sen. Daylin Leach, a Mont-
gomery County Democrat who
leads a political action commit-
tee devoted to electing more
Democrats to state Senate, said
many of his GOP colleagues pri-
vately are uncomfortable with
the conservative streak they see
in House leaders and Corbett.
Corbett was fortunate to be a
Republican running in a Repub-
lican year, good for him, but I
think you make a big mistake if
you think, Well, Im a Republi-
can and Ive been elected and
therefore people want me to en-
act the most extreme planks of
the Republican platform, Leach
said.
View of GOP senators is shifting
Many Senate members were
first elected before the tea
party wave last year.

OSLO, NORWAY
Suspect eyed other targets
T
he anti-Muslim extremist who
confessed to a bombing and youth
camp massacre that killed 77 people in
Norway has told investigators he also
considered attacking other targets
linked to the government or the prime
ministers Labor Party, police said
Saturday.
During a 10-hour questioning session
on Friday, Anders Behring Breivik
asked interrogators how many people
he had killed in the July 22 attacks, and
showed no emotion when they told
him, police attorney Paal-Fredrik Hjort
Kraby told reporters in Oslo.
The 32-year-old Norwegian has con-
fessed to setting off a car bomb that
killed eight people in downtown Oslo
and then gunning down scores of youth
from the left-leaning Labor Party at
their annual retreat on an island north-
west of the capital. Sixy-nine of them
died.
CAIRO, EGYPT
Venue change for trial
Hosni Mubaraks trial on charges he
ordered the killing of protesters during
Egypts uprising will be held at a police
academy on Cairos outskirts instead of
a convention center in the heart of the
capital, the head of Cairos appeals
court said Saturday.
The change appears to be linked to
concerns over security during the oust-
ed leaders trial, which is scheduled to
begin Wednesday and is sure to draw a
large audience. The 83-year-old ex-
president is to stand trial alongside his
security chief and six other senior
security officials facing the same charg-
es stemming from the crackdown that
killed hundreds but failed to stop the
18-day uprising that forced Mubarak
from power on Feb. 11.
BARLING, ARK.
Rink victims mourned
Four siblings killed in a shooting
rampage at a Texas roller rink were
remembered Saturday as a part of a
tight-knit family, even as the hundreds
gathered in an Arkansas church to
mourn them tried to make sense of the
tragedy.
More than 400 people attended a
service for Trini Do, 29, her sisters,
Lynn Ta, 16, and Michelle Ta, 28, and
her brother, Hien Ta, 21. Trini Dos
estranged husband, Tan Do, 35, shot
her and her siblings during a birthday
party for their 11-year-old son and then
killed himself.
Police in Grand Prairie, Texas, have
said they believe the shooting was
planned and followed years of domestic
violence. Trini Do received a protective
order in December against her hus-
band, but she had it withdrawn earlier
this year against a prosecutors advice
and wanted to give him another
chance, an aunt has said.
BATON ROUGE, LA.
Dad sleeps while son drives
Louisiana state police say an 8-year-
old boy was driving a pickup truck
down an interstate while his drunken
father slept in the passenger seat.
Troopers say the mans 4-year-old
daughter was in the back seat when the
truck was stopped Saturday morning in
Livingston Parish. The childs driving
was so erratic that it alarmed motori-
sts, who called authorities.
The children have been handed over
to Louisiana Child Protective Services.
The father, 28-year-old Billy Joe
Madden of Hattiesburg, Miss., was
booked into the Livingston Parish Jail
on charges including Child Desertion
and Allowing a Minor to Drive. It was
not clear Saturday afternoon if he had
an attorney.

GEORGETOWN, Guyana
Flight 523 from New York had
just touched down and passen-
gers were applauding the pi-
lots landing in the South
American country Saturday
when something suddenly
went wrong.
The Boeing 737-800 slid off
the end of a rainy runway,
crashed through a chain-link
fence and broke in half just
short of a deep ravine. Yet all
163 people on board survived.
Officials were starting to
probe the cause of the crash
even as they marveled at the
lack of fatalities.
We must be the luckiest
country and luckiest set of
people in the world to escape
so lightly, said Health Minis-
ter Leslie Ramsammy, who
said more than 30 people were
taken to the hospital. Only
three of those had to be admit-
ted for a broken leg, bumps,
cuts and bruises.
The Caribbean Airlines
plane had left John F. Kennedy
International Airport Friday
evening and made a stop in
Trinidad before landing in
Guyana. The airline said it was
carrying 157 passengers and
six crew members.
Geeta Ramsingh, 41, of Phi-
ladelphia, recalled how ap-
plause at the arrival quickly
turned to screams.
The plane sped up as if at-
tempting to take off again. It is
then that I smelled gas in the
cabin and people started to
shout and holler, she said.
The plane came to rest off
the end of the 7,400-foot run-
way at Cheddi Jagan Interna-
tional Airport, which sits on a
ridge in forested region just
south of the oceanfront capital
of nearly 300,000 people.

KILLEEN, Texas Ultimate-
ly, it was the keen eye of a Texas
gun shop clerk that helped au-
thorities find an AWOL soldier
whod stashed bomb-making ma-
terial in his nearby motel room
for a plannedattackonFort Hood
soldiers.
The tip that led Killeen police
to Pfc. Naser Abdo on Wednes-
day prevented what could have
been the second terrorist attack
on the Army post, following a
2009 shooting rampage in which
an Army psychiatrist is charged
with killing 13 people. Earlier
this year in Texas, a shipping
company that told the FBI about
a suspicious order for a chemical
explosive foiledanallegedplot to
blowupformer President George
W. Bushs Dallas home.
A vigilant public and in-
formed local law enforcement
make it much more complicated
for people wishingtocarryout at-
tacks to do so, said John Cohen,
principal deputy counterterror-
ism adviser at the Homeland Se-
curity Department.
Federal and local law enforce-
ment agencies have established
programs over the past decade
that encourage the public to re-
port suspicious activity.
Abdo, 21, who went absent
without leave from Fort Camp-
bell, Ky., early this month, was ar-
rested Wednesday at a motel out-
side Fort Hood and charged with
possession of an unregistered de-
structive device. Police say he
was perhaps onlyadayawayfrom
unleashing bombs in a restaurant
frequented by soldiers and at-
tacking the Army post.

WASHINGTONFive months after
President Barack Obama told him to
leave Libya, Moammar Gadhafi is press-
ing on against NATO-backed rebel
forces, flaunting his remaining power in
the face of Western nations fearful of
combatting himwith greater force. And
four months after Obama offeredSyrias
leader an ultimatum to lead reform or
leave, Bashar Assads crackdown on dis-
sent rages on.
Through intervention or engage-
ment, the U.S. is stuck with inconclu-
sive results in both countries. The un-
clear endgame in each is constraining
the actions of everyone involved in-
cluding the United States.
Coming out with guns blazing failed
to deliver an early knockout punch to
Gadhafi. Engagement has proved simi-
larly ineffectual directed toward Assad.
Libyas war has become a quagmire.
For the U.S., policy options are limit-
ed. It has already played its military
card, leading the early stages of NATOs
intervention by bombing Gadhafis air
defense capabilities.
In Syria, the president and Secretary
of StateHillaryRodhamClintons rheto-
ric has dismissed any lingering hopes
that Assads government might be per-
suaded to start a serious democratic re-
form process and pull back an aggres-
sive nationwide campaign to snuff out
dissent.

MAI-AINI, Ethiopia As the world fo-
cuses on famine in Somalia, Eritrea suf-
fers in silence.
Eritrea, a nation of 5 million people
that borders Sudan, Ethiopia and Djibou-
ti, has also seen failed rains and wide-
spread food shortages. But its autocratic
government, which faces international
sanctions, refuses to acknowledge a
drought has swept its territory. Satellite
images showthat the Red Sea nation has
been hit by drought conditions similar to
those in Somalia, Ethiopia and Djibouti.
Nearly1,000Eritreans arrivedat a refu-
gee camp in northern Ethiopia in July
alone, officials said.
U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for
African Affairs, Johnnie Carson, said last
week that many of the Eritrean refugees
crossingborders intoSudanandEthiopia
suffer frommalnutrition. Heurgedthere-
clusive Eritrean regime, led by longtime
President Isaias Afwerki, to address the
hunger and work with humanitarian or-
ganizations to prevent catastrophe.
Over the last few years, more than
48,000 Eritreans have fled to Ethiopia.
Refugees said their families havent
been able to buy food from the govern-
ment for the last three months and that
food prices have spiraled.

Thats where the ball is, Dai-
utolo said.
He said customers served by
the branches that are on the re-
view list will be asked for input
throughout the entire process.
He said questionnaires will be
left in the branches and public
hearings will take place.
We did this to make sure
these stations and branches are
given the same level of transpar-
ency a standalone office gets,
Daiutolo said.
Even after a site is selected for
closure, theres still a chance for
an appeal to the Postal Regulato-
ry Committee before any closing
would take place, he added.
At the earliest, with all the
timelines were working with,
none of these branches would
close before December, he said.
The list released Tuesday, which
contains the names of 203 Penn-
sylvania locations, is the third
grouping of postal retail facilities
facing possible closure issued
since 2009. From the 2009 list of
about 3,600, 140 eventually
closed, Daiutolo said. Among
them were two locally, Ashley
and Dickson City.
If post offices are slated to
close, the postal service said resi-
dents will still receive mail and
be able to purchase stamps local-
ly. In communities without a
post office, the Postal Service
plans to sell stamps and offer ser-
vices through local retailers such
as grocers, convenience stores or
other popular gathering places.
Residents in Luzerne County
that have P.O. boxes at the four
post offices under review, would
be changed to home delivery of
mail and would likely see their
zip codes replaced by ones from
nearby Columbia County com-
munities such as Bloomsburg,
Stillwater, Benton or Berwick.
Bonnie Adams, a Black Creek
Township supervisor and a box
holder at the Rock Glen Post Of-
fice, said residents need to speak
out and organize petition drives
or campaigns to save their post
office. The four post offices on
the list located in Luzerne Coun-
ty serve only a few hundred peo-
ple; Cambra has 35 P.O. boxes.
The Postal Service, solely sup-
ported by postage revenue, has
seen its funding stream on the
decline as technology has al-
lowed people to communicate
through email, social networking
and text messages. The service is
looking at the restructuring as a
way to stave off a reported record
deficit of up to $9 billion this
year.

WILKES-BARRE Monsig-
nor Joseph Kelly said he usually
sees the glass half full, but he
said the local crisis affecting the
homeless and those in need is
getting worse every day.
Theres no sense trying to
sugar coat it, Kelly said. We
are in a crisis and its going to
get worse before it gets better.
Local communities will be ex-
pected to pick
up the respon-
sibility of help-
ing our broth-
ers and sis-
ters.
Kelly, execu-
tive director of
Catholic Social
Services for the Scranton Dio-
cese, said he doesnt see a sim-
ple solution because state and
federal funding is being cut
when more and more people are
in need.
There are going to be more
incidences of homelessness,
food insecurity and less and less
programming for children, Kel-
ly said.
The Scranton Diocese oper-
ates a homeless shelter in Scran-
ton, but in Luzerne County,
Mother Thereses Haven for-
merly VISION moves from
church to church on a weekly
basis. Kelly said it is more ex-
pensive to keep moving the shel-
ter and more difficult to get the
clients to appointments usually
in downtown Wilkes-Barre.
Kelly said the diocese was
looking for a permanent loca-
tion for a shelter in Wilkes-
Barre, but with drastic funding
cuts, the chance of that happen-
ing has diminished.
Im not sure where were go-
ing to go, Kelly said. Theres
insufficient money being provid-
ed for individual men and wom-
en and absolutely minimal mon-
ey for sheltering of families,
Kelly said.
Kelly said not only are more
people coming to places like the
St. Vincent de Paul Kitchen for
meals, there has been a signif-
icant spike in the number of peo-
ple coming to Mother Thereses
Haven for shelter.
Just when REACH, Inc.
closed, we had moved a lot of
our homeless men to transition-
al living, Kelly said. But all of
our beds were immediately fil-
led by new people.
Kelly said the sagging econo-
my is the main reason for the
increased demand for services.
I just spoke to a 31-year-old
man who told me hes been
homeless six times this year,
Kelly said. He said he wants to
work and is physically able to
work, but he cant find a job.
Kelly said Mother Thereses
Haven has 28 men staying there
at night. He said there have
been increased demands for
health care as well.
He said more than 200 people
were at the McKinney Clinic
above the St. Vincent de Paul
Kitchen just the other night.
The demand is extremely
high, Kelly said. Donations are
needed. Our funding has been
cut by 62 percent.
He had said Catholic Social
Services, St. Stephens Episcopal
Church, United Way and the
Commission on Economic Op-
portunity have been discussing a
way to establish a permanent
homeless shelter for men. Kelly
had hoped to have something
operating by the fall, but hes not
as optimistic now.
While Kelly said there is noth-
ing new on finding a permanent
shelter location in downtown
Wilkes-Barre, he said it is a pri-
ority and he believes it will hap-
pen soon.
Monsignor says homeless situation is a crisis
Executive director of Catholic
Social Services feels too many
cuts are being made.
By BILL OBOYLE
Kelly
Cutbacks in state funding for
programs that help those in
need and the lack of a central
shelter where the homeless can
crash at night has exasperated
an already critical situation.
McCawley said the demand
for meals has increased dramat-
ically over the last month.
We have been serving more
than 400 lunches per day and
our evening meal has gone from
125 servings to more than 300,
McCawley said of the recent in-
crease in visitors. More and
more people are losing their
jobs. They come in and tell us
that they have never had to ask
for help before. Ive never seen
our kitchen so crowded.
John Patterson, 54, a Scranton
resident, is now homeless and
has been coming to the kitchen
for meals for about a month.
Hes looking for work and until
he finds a job, hes been forced
to camp out.
I keep clean though, he said.
I make sure I get a shower ev-
ery day. Ive been working one
day a week at the Farmers Mar-
ket. Ill find something soon, I
hope.
John R. Cool, 56, of Edwards-
ville, was standing with Patter-
son. Cool said his rent is so high
he has little money left for food.
Something has to happen to
help us, Cool said.
As more people come to the
St. Vincent de Paul Kitchen for
meals, the demand for food to
serve has also increased,
McCawley said.
So far were keeping up with
the demand, she said. But we
are hopeful our donations in-
crease because the number of
people we serve is increasing
daily.
Sources facing cuts
McCawley said funding for
the Weinberg Food Bank at the
Commission on Economic Op-
portunity will be cut. She said
that will place an even greater
need for donations.
These are extremely tough
times, McCawley said. People
dont realize that these funding
cuts are coming at a time when
the demand is rising dramatical-
ly.
McCawley said more people
are in need and she urged elect-
ed officials to do something.
Bryan Hogan, 49, is a former
homeless man who now lives in
Kingston. Hogan was a frequent
visitor to REACH, which closed
a month ago because of a fund-
ing shortage. The homeless
drop-in center was in St. Ste-
phens Episcopal Church, about
four blocks from the St. Vincent
de Paul Kitchen.
He said he doesnt see many
of the people who came to RE-
ACH daily for showers, break-
fast, to pick up their mail or to
use the phone to set up appoint-
ments.
Ive bumped into a few guys
and Ive tried to help them by
telling them where to go to get
some help, Hogan said.
Another REACH alum, Jeb
he wont reveal his last time
said hes still living in the woods
somewhere on the West Side.
Im surviving, he said. I
dont see anybody much any-
more.
Jeb, a handyman, said hes
been working regularly. He said
he does his work, grabs a meal
at the kitchen and returns to his
woodsy home.
At my place, listening to the
city traffic is like listening to the
ocean if you set your mind
right, he said.
Clients disappeared
Stefanie Wolownik, former ex-
ecutive director at REACH, has
been stopping by her office to
clean it out. She said she has
seen a few of her former clients,
but most have not been around.
I was thinking the other day,
wow, these people have just
kind of disappeared, Wolownik
said. I guess they went under-
ground. But they are used to
places closing and being kicked
out. They adapt and move on.
Wolownik said she has pre-
pared informational sheets that
list services and agencies that
homeless and people in need
can access for help.

PLYMOUTH Frank Tribendis
has coached boys and girls swim-
ming at Wyoming Valley West for
42 years.
For the last 16 years, Tribendis
has also coached boys and girls
water polo.
The funding for water polo
about $13,000has beeneliminat-
ed by the WVW School Board,
causing everyone from team
members to coaches to parents to
supporters tojumpinthepool and
help raise money to keep the wa-
ter polo programabove water.
The school board has been
supportive and the parents group
WVW Aquatic Parents has al-
ready raised about $4,000 so far,
Tribendis said. If we can get to
$10,000 we can keep the pro-
gram.
Tribendis, who retired from
teaching six years ago, said about
40 students participate in the wa-
ter polo program and in 1999 the
girls team won the state cham-
pionship.
Sally Anne Kaminski of Ed-
wardsville, is a former WVW
swimmer and water polo player
who doesnt want the program to
end.
I can easily say water polo is a
demanding, challenging sport
that builds character, discipline
and confidence in students that
theydesperatelyneedthesedays,
Kaminski said. Water polo is like
playing several sports at one time
without beingabletostandupand
use your legs. It teaches you to
have great endurance, which
helps tomakeyouabetter student
and prepares you for college.
Kaminski said more people
should come out and watch a wa-
ter polo game to see howgrueling
and intense it is.
Youreally have tobe very dedi-
catedtoplaywater polo, shesaid.
Kaminski urged her fellow
Class of 2005 members to donate
totheprogramandtrytoget other
donations to keep the sport alive.
I wouldnt havebeenbothacol-
legiate swimmer and in a nursing
programwithout CoachTribendis
or water polo, she said. The for-
mula is tough sport plus tough
coach equals great college suc-
cess.
Tribendis alsotalkedabout past
athletes hes coached like Corey
and Shana Welch who both went
ontomajor colleges Coreytothe
University of Florida andShana to
the University of Michigan. Shana
has played professional water po-
lo, Tribendis said.

D
aniel L. Norton, 64, of Larks-
ville, lost his life to a short
battle with cancer Friday morn-
ing, July 29, 2011, in the Depart-
ment of Veterans Affairs Medical
Center, Plains Township.
Born in Kingston, he was a son
of the late James and Emma Ber-
trum Norton and his stepfather
Herbert Regan. He was a gradu-
ate of West Wyoming High, class
of 1966.
He was a U.S. Army Veteran of
the Vietnam War, serving from
1966 through 1968 and contin-
ued his military career in the Ar-
my Reserves until 1972. He re-
ceived numerous medals while
serving in Vietnam as a helicop-
ter gunmen and mechanic.
Prior to his retirement, he was
employed by IBM as an electrical
engineer for 35 years. After retir-
ing, Dan owned and operated Pa-
triot Tours and was an independ-
ent agent for Atlantic City. He
was also employed with G. Rit-
sick and Sons Plumbing.
He was a member of the Forty
Fort United Methodist Church,
Harding Fire Department, and
the Edwardsville Volunteer Fire
Department. Dan was also a
member of the Kingston VFW
Post 283 and the Department of
Veterans Affairs American Le-
gion.
Dan was the most loving and
devoted husband, father, stepfa-
ther and grandfather. Anyone
who had the opportunity of
knowing him knew of his kind
heart and of his outgoing person-
ality. He was always there when
you needed him and to give a
helping hand. He loved spending
time with his family, grandchil-
dren and his loving dog, Baxter.
He enjoyed his yard and swim-
ming in his pool, going on his At-
lantic City trips with his friends
and customers, and, most of all,
spending his time with his wife,
Evelyn, for 19 wonderful years.
The family would like to thank
all the nurses, staff and doctors,
especially Dr. Mark W. Scinico
from the VA Medical Center.
Surviving are his wife of 19
years, the former Evelyn Pemble-
ton; children, Daniel J. Norton

If we take care of our birds and
theyre not running down Market
Street or Pierce Street, and theres
no roosters, why cant we provide
food for our families? she said.
Spurredbyarenewedinterest in
organic farming and sustainable
development, curiosity in keeping
backyard chickens is on the rise
across the country.
The movement has taken hold
in large urban centers such as
Brooklyn, N.Y., and has prompted
home farmers in communities
such as Madison, Wis., and Por-
tland, Maine, to successfully over-
turn prohibitions on raising chick-
ens in their communities.
Rose White, a worker at Tractor
Supply Co. in Hanover Township,
said the phenomenon appears to
be catching onlocally. The retailer
sells chicken feed, hen boxes, egg
incubators and other chicken-rais-
ing supplies and in April sells live
chicks.
Alot more people fromthe city
of Nanticoke are coming in to buy
feed, and theyre buying it in small
enough quantities that I assume
theyre doing it themselves, said
White, adding that she keeps
chickens at Lake Silkworth.
Municipal restrictions
Kapral-Kelly said she plans to
seekazoningvariancetoallowher
to keep chickens in Kingston, but
eventually she hopes local munici-
pal leaders will overturnzoningor-
dinances banning the keeping of
hens, whicharent asnoisyorlikely
tobecomeanuisanceas their male
counterparts.
Of the municipalities where Ka-
pral-Kelly said her aspiring chick-
en-farmer friends live, only Forty
Fort does not prohibit keeping
chickens.
Ordinances in Swoyersville and
Wilkes-Barre specifically prohibit
the keeping of chickens, while
Kingstons ordinance states that
farm animals other than custom-
ary pets shall not be kept in resi-
dential districts. Kingston Ad-
ministrator Paul Keating said pro-
hibition of farm animals has been
in the municipalitys zoning ordi-
nance since the late1970s. He said
hebelieves raisingchickens or oth-
er farmanimals inKingstonwould
not enhance andwouldprobably
detract fromthe quality of life of
residents.
Clearly, farm animals or live-
stock and that goes for iguanas
and exotic pets, too clearly they
donot belonginahigh-densityres-
idential community,Keatingsaid.
It doesnt have any meaningful
use in this community. We dont
have any rural zones in this com-
munity that can support raising
farmanimals. SoI wouldbe highly
opposedtoever allowinglivestock
or breeding in this community.
Swoyersville Zoning Officer Joe
Ruscavage said his boroughs ordi-
nance banning chickens went into
effect in1976, andwas likelyenact-
ed because the sound and smell
produced by chickens and farm
animals would create a public nui-
sance.
Unfortunately, things have
changed since the 40s and 50s,
he said.
Amy Yerke of Shavertown has
had a small chicken coop at her
Jackson Road property for two
years. She said the birds are man-
ageable, donot pose problems and
provide a steady stream of tasty
eggs.
The eggs have a richer, better-
looking yoke that have more nutri-
ents and taste much better than
store-bought eggs, she said.
Were quite happy with the chick-
ens.
Healthier living
Yerke said she thinks the addi-
tion of the chicken coop has made
her life and health better.
Improvinga healthier lifestyle is
Kapral-Kellys goals. The director
of marketing and development for
The Lands at Hillside Farms said
keeping chickens at home perfect-
ly coincides with the historic
farms mission of promoting
healthy, conservation-minded and
practical lifestyle choices.
She said municipalities should
be promoting those sorts of choic-
es as well.
Shesaidhens wouldnot createa
nuisance or detract fromquality of
life because they do not make as
much noise as roosters, which
arent required for chickens to pro-
duce edible eggs.
This spring, theKingstonTown-
shipfarmhostedaseminar onrais-
ing backyard chickens attended by
more than 35 people.
The requests just havent stop-
ped coming since then, Kapral-
Kellysaid. Weget thephonecalls,
we get the emails the interest is
definitely snowballing.
Home-farmed eggs are lower in
cholesterol, higher invitamins and
many prefer the taste, she said.
Chickens providepest control in
gardens, andtheirnitrogen-richex-
crement makes excellent fertilizer.
The coops, she said, will not
smell if cleanedregularly, andhens
tendtostayinnestsfromsundown
to sunrise.
Raising chickens also makes a
person partially responsible for
their foodsourceandisagreat way
of teaching kids responsibility, she
added.
Ahome chicken farmcan be set
up for less than $300, Kapral-Kelly
said, a bargain given that organic
free-range eggs cancost more than
$5 a dozen.
Websites such as thecitychick-
en.com and urbanchickens.org of-
fer advice and connect seasoned
and would-be chicken farmers
with one another.
The forumof one site, backyard-
chickens.com, has nearly 100,000
registered members.

WASHINGTON Claiming
that the twoparties arent that far
apart, President BarackObama is
urging Democratic and Republi-
can lawmakers to reach a deal
quickly to keep the government
from defaulting on payments to
veterans, Social Security recip-
ients and others.
There is very little time he
said Saturday in his weekly radio
and Internet address.
The Republican-controlled
House on Friday passed a bill
aimed at avoiding a debt default,
voting 218-210 almost entirely
along party lines.
In the Republican radio ad-
dress, Arizona Sen. Jon Kyl said
its important for the country to
avoid debt default, but said Dem-
ocrats need to work more closely
with Republicans.
Republicans have tried to
work with Democrats to avoid
this result andput our country on
a better path, but we need them
to work with us, Kyl said.
Unfortunately, after weeks of
negotiations, it became clear that
Democrats in Washington did
not viewthis crisis as an opportu-
nity to rein in spending, he said.
Instead, they sawit as an oppor-
tunity to impose huge tax in-
creases onAmericanfamilies and
small businesses.
Obama insists that borrowing
authority extend through 2013,
beyond next years presidential
campaign.
The Democratic-controlled
Senate, with help from some Re-
publicans, quickly rejected the
House bill on Friday. Majority
Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., had
an alternative measure to cut
spending by $2.4 trillion and
raise the debt limit by an equal
amount, enough to meet Oba-
mas demandthat there not be an-
other vote on government bor-
rowing next year.
The time for putting party
first is over, Obama said. The
time for compromise on behalf of
the American people is now.

Congress to move quickly.
President
urges two
parties to
cooperate
By DARLENE SUPERVILLE
Associated Press
WASHINGTONThere is no
changing how Washington
works. It doesnt.
Even if a bitterly divided Con-
gress and President Barack Oba-
ma avoid a U.S. debt default by
striking a last-second deal, as all
sides expect, plenty of damage
has been done.
People are disgusted. Confi-
dence in the political system is
tanking. Nothing else is getting
done in Washington. The mar-
kets are spooked. The global rep-
utation of the United States has
slipped.
And the real kicker? This
whole wrenching effort to shrink
the debt may actually increase
the debt.
Any emergency deal may not
be broad enough to prevent the
major credit rating agencies from
downgrading the United States
as a rock-solid investment. That,
in turn, could increase the cost of
borrowing for the government
(hence more interest and debt),
not to mention for everyone else.
The spectacle has brought
Washington to its knees. Obama
went onTVbefore the nationand
called it a circus. One lawmaker
felt compelledto apologize to the
American people.
I can only imagine the anger
and disgust they have, said
Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin of
West Virginia, at witnessing a
broken government and a presi-
dent and members of Congress
who cant seem to even agree
sometimes on what day it is, let
alone to solve the nations debt
crisis.
That about sums it up.
Polls show peoples trust in
government is at one of its worst
levels indecades. AnABC/Wash-
ington Post survey this month
foundthat awhopping80percent
of people were angry or dissatis-
fiedwiththe federal government.
About a decade ago, it wasnt half
that high.
Pleading for the parties to
work together for the American
people, Obama said, Thats the
least that they should expect of
us, not the most that they should
expect of us.
Achieving the least is proving
nearly impossible.
This Washington moment be-
ganas something big a biparti-
san effort to put a real dent in the
long-termdebt by takingonpolit-
ical issues that are genuinely
tough for both parties. It has now
devolved into a panicky debate
over whether the nations debt
limit will be raised by Tuesday so
the country can pay its bills.
Voters, remember, want their
leaders tobe focusedonjobs. The
goal of preventing a self-inflicted
economic catastrophe is hardly a
standard of excellence.
When this is all over, politic-
ians will claim credit wherever
they can, and blame their oppo-
nents for the long, embarrassing
spectacle.
And the public will assign
blame, deciding whether those
pushing compromise will be re-
warded as eminently sensible or
punished for caving.
That misses the point.
In the biggest sense, everyone
has lost.
We have now taken a process
that was not getting a lot of atten-
tion and convinced people that
this is not the usual shenanigans.
It is farcical and utterly dysfunc-
tional, said Norman Ornstein, a
political science scholar at the
American Enterprise who has
long examined Washingtons
ways. Whatever they pull out
here in the end, that image isnt
going to change.
Consider some of the many
ways Washington has not been
able to escape itself:
Given the huge issues at
stake, fromthe size of the debt to
the role of government, voters
might have hoped for a big, open
debate of ideas. What they have
had instead is a confusing proc-
ess thats playing out in secret or
in strident statements to the
press.
Congress, as usual, is ex-
hausting all of its partisan op-
tions before truly considering a
potential agreement in the final
hours. Thats viewed as normal,
or even helpful, in Washington. A
weary country, meanwhile, is get-
ting daily updates about what it
would mean to live with the first
default in the countrys history.
Boehner suspended the vot-
ing on his own bill so that he
could find a way to snag the final
votes he needed. The House
switched to naming post offices
as time slipped away. A White
House official said this is why
people hate Washington. Boehn-
ers office said it showed reform
for Washington: At least he didnt
try to ram the bill through in the
dead of night.
Obama is getting bashed for
not putting his own plan on pa-
per. The White House claims to
do that would be to ensure its de-
feat, because Republicans cannot
publicly support whatever Oba-
ma does.
The president said the world
is watching. Allies are actually
cringing. The international com-
munity is seeing a superpower
bicker and flail in its attempt to
reduce its staggering debt.
The embarrassing stalemate
follows a breathless budget clash
between the parties that came
close to shutting down the gov-
ernment. And with the nation
still stuck in a rut on job creation,
there is little reason to be hopeful
for a bipartisan economic agenda
between now and the presiden-
tial and congressional elections
in November 2012.
The voices of moderation in
bothparties have beendisappear-
ing, in part because of election
districts drawn to favor sharply
one party of the other. Ornstein
predicts the next election will
bring only more polarization.
This is not exactly a shining mo-
ment for America, he said.
Obama likes to remind voters
that they had better intentions
than this when they put Demo-
crats in control of the White
House and Senate and Republi-
cans in charge of the House.
The American people may
have voted for divided govern-
ment, but they didnt vote for a
dysfunctional government, the
president says.
Too bad they got both.
For most, debt mess showing D.C.s awful side
This whole wrenching effort
to shrink the debt may

House with Obama and House
Democratic leader Nancy Pelo-
si.
The renewed negotiations oc-
curred on one track, while an-
other pointed the Senate to-
warda test vote onlegislationto
raise the debt limit while cut-
ting spending by $2.4 trillion.
The vote was delayed from 1
a.m. today to 1 p.m.
That measure was introduced
by Reid but opposed by Repub-
licans, who vowed to prevent it
from advancing.
Adding further confusion, the
White House declined com-
ment on the days develop-
ments.
That left prospects for a com-
promise murky.
But late Saturday night, Reid
said compromise negotiations
were going on at the White
House.
Halfway
around the
world, on a vis-
it to Camp
Leatherneck
in Afghanis-
tan, the na-
tions top mili-
tary officer
fielded ques-
tions from
troops asking
if they would
be paid in the
event of a de-
fault.
I actually
dont know
the answer to that question,
said Adm. Mike Mullen, chair-
man of the Joint Chiefs of Staff,
although he told them they
would continue to go to work
each day.
Without legislation in place
by next Tuesday, administra-
tion officials say the Treasury
will run out of funds to pay all
the nations bills. They say a
subsequent default could prove
catastrophic for the U.S. econo-
my and send shockwaves
around the world.
The president is seeking leg-
islation to raise the govern-
ments $14.3 trillion debt limit
by about $2.4 trillion, enough to
tide the Treasury over until af-
ter the 2012 elections. Over
many weeks, he has agreed to
Republican demands that defi-
cits be cut without a require-
ment for tax increases in ex-
change for additional U.S. bor-
rowing authority.
But Obama has threatened to
veto any legislation that would
require a second vote in Con-
gress for any additional borrow-
ing authority to take effect, say-
ing that would invite a recur-
rence of the current crisis in the
heat of next years election cam-
paigns.
Saturdays developments
opened with Obama saying,
There is very little time in his
weekly radio and Internet ad-
dress.
A few hours later, House Re-
publican leaders engineered a
vote to defeat a Reid-drafted
proposal to raise the debt limit
on a near-party line vote at mid-
afternoon.
Arguing into the night, Re-
publicans stood ready to block
the same measures advance in
the Senate.
Reid accused Republicans of
filibustering, and it appeared he
was hoping to find enough de-
fectors in the GOP ranks so he
could overcome the blockade.
In contrast to McConnell,
Reid said individual Republi-
cans had shown a willingness to
compromise.
Indeed, some Republicans ex-
pressed concerns about the ef-
fects of gridlock.
Im worried about Congress
defaulting on our country, said
Sen. Johnny Isakson, R-Ga. He
suggested terms of a possible
compromise and urged fellow
lawmakers to find common
ground.
Sen. Robert Casey, D-Scran-
ton, was also among those call-
ing for compromise.
The Americanpeople watch-
ing this over so many days now
understand the basic challenge
we face, said Casey. Its a chal-
lenge of reducing the deficit and
debt and cutting spending, but
alsoof makingsure that we have
a bipartisan agreement to pay
our bills and meet our obliga-
tions. And I think if I had to boil
it down to four words, it is this
in terms of what people in Penn-
sylvania have told me that we
must do: compromise for our
country.
With financial markets closed
for the weekend, lawmakers had
a little breathing room, but not
much. Asian markets begin
opening for the new work week
whenit is late Sunday afternoon
in the capital.
In his remarks at a news con-
ference, McConnell saidObama
needs to indicate what he will
sign, and we are in those discus-
sions.
He said later he had spoken
several times during the day
with Vice President Joe Biden,
who played a prominent role in
earlier attempts to break the
gridlock that has pushed the
country to the verge of an un-
precedented default.
Boehner said that despite the
partisanship of recent weeks, I
think were dealing with reason-
able, responsible people who
want this crisis toendas quickly
as possible and Im confident it
will.
To get to the endgame, Re-
publicans and Democrats had
to go through the formality of
killing each others bills scor-
ing their own political points
before they could turn to mea-
ningful negotiations.
Still, the sudden talk of com-
promise contrasted sharply
with the days earlier develop-
ments as both the House and
Senate convened for unusual
Saturday sessions.
The House voted down legis-
lationdraftedby Democrat Reid
to raise the governments debt
limit by $2.4 trillion and cut
spending by the same amount.
The vote was 246-173, mostly
along party lines and after de-
bate filled with harsh, partisan
remarks.
Republicans said the Reid
spending-cuts plan was filled
with gimmicks and would make
unacceptable reductions in Pen-
tagon accounts. It offers no re-
al solutions to the out-of-con-
trol spending problems, said
Rep. Alan Nunnelee of Missis-
sippi, part of a group of 87 first-
term Republicans who have led
the push for deeper spending
cuts.
Republican Reps. Lou Barlet-
ta of Hazleton and Tom Marino
of Lycoming Township joined
the solid opposition by House
Republicans to the Reid plan.
Sen. Reids plan is flawed be-
cause it relies on phantom sav-
ings from war funding that was
never set to be spent anyway,
Barletta said. I cannot support
this bill because it does not cut
enough federal spending.
Americans want real spending
controls, not accounting gim-
micks, which is what the Reid
bill is.
Not even Democrats seemed
to like the legislation very
much, although many emerged
from a closed-door meeting of
the rank and file saying they
would vote for it.
Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-Texas,
called it the least worst alter-
native to avoid default.
Yet with their votes, many
Democrats signaled their read-
iness for compromise by voting
to cut spending without raising
taxes. Many Republicans insist
taxes must not be raised to cut
intofederal deficits, evenfor the
wealthiest Americans and for
big oil companies.
In remarks on the House
floor, Rep. David Dreier, R-Cal-
if., said the vote itself could be
prelude to a final effort at com-
promise that would involve the
White House and the leaders of
both parties.
Across the Capitol, the Sen-
ate marked the hours before a
scheduled test vote at 1 a.m.
Sunday on the same measure.
There was no doubt about the
outcome there, either, unless
compromise intervened.
Atotal of 43 Republicans sent
Reid a letter saying they would
block the bill from advancing,
enough to prevail.
With both parties preferred
solutions blocked, the only al-
ternatives were compromise
that was so far elusive or a de-
fault that no one claimed to
want.
The days events in the House
were orchestrated as political
payback, and unusual at that,
since Republicans lined up to
kill legislation that hadnt even
cleared the Senate.
Less than 24 hours earlier,
Reidhadengineeredthe demise
of a House-passed bill hours af-
ter it passed, and without so
much as a debate on its merit.
Pelosi said Boehner chose to
go to the dark side when he
changed his own legislation to
satisfy tea party lawmakers and
other critics.
There were catcalls from the
Republican side of the aisle at
that, and Pelosi responded by
repeating that the speaker
chose to go to the dark side.
Republicans ridiculed Reids
legislation.
Not only does it fail to ad-
dress our spending and debt
problem, it wont even prevent a
downgrade of our credit rat-
ing, said Rep. Scott Garrett, R-
N.J. We needactual cuts to gov-
ernment spending to address
our long-term debt crisis, not
phantom cuts and accounting
gimmicks.

THE TIMES LEADER SUNDAY, JULY 31, 2011
W
ell, here I am, watching the
most highly paid construction
crew ever assembled build my
dream home.
It took a while, but finally I got my
plans worked out with a committee of
the worlds leading architects. Now as
fabulously expensive and exotic woods
and other building materials are being
brought in by heavy-lift helicopters Im
busy trying to visualize the final prod-
uct.
Its actually going to be fairly retro,
though. Trendy neighbors probably
wouldnt like it. Instead of sending the
welcome wagon, theyd rally on my
sidewalk with packs of dogs and burn-
ing torches, screaming something like
curse you, monster of 1940s taste.
But Id snicker. Truly, I believe that
designers of the past were on to some-
thing, at least something that makes
sense to me. So heres what my person-
al dream home would have.
A wrap-around porch: I drive all over
to look at nice homes, and I faithfully
read The Times Leaders home stories.
I have yet to see a big, comfy-looking
wrap-around porch on a fancy-shmancy
house. What happened to them, I dont
know, but its a tragedy.
I live on my porch as much as pos-
sible during warm weather, sprawled in
my glider, iced tea nearby, reading a
book or magazine and chatting with
neighbors. When I was a kid, my par-
ents home had a fantastic L-shaped
porch, with a solid railing so that on a
stifling night you could actually sleep
out there.
A sitting room: Ill bet most people
younger than 50 today dont know
what a sitting room is. So listen up: it
was a minor-league version of your
living room, and probably right next to
it, usually accessed through a side
door. Youd welcome guests there when
the occasion (or the guests) did not
warrant disturbing the doilies on the
living room furniture.
It was also the place where the fam-
ily gathered to listen to Jack Benny
or Big Town on the Silvertone con-
sole radio. Other functions included:
kids playroom; place to grab a nap on
the old couch; music listening room
(on the wind-up Victrola); or whatever
other purpose you wanted, including
drying out umbrellas.
A cellar and an attic: When I meet
people whose houses have no cellars or
attics, Im appalled. Where do they put
their model railroads? Where do they
store out-of-season decorations? You
cant beat a cellar for half-used cans of
paint whose original purpose you dont
recall. Show me a garden shed how-
ever enormous that can do those
things.
Im especially fond of attics. A good
attic is a veritable history of your per-
sonal life. It holds the first book you
bought, your grade school graduation
pin, the gift appliance you forgot about
until you bought another one that was
on sale. Id wander about in existential
haze without a dusty third floor.
Say, this place is getting pretty big. I
can tell you one thing my dream home
wouldnt have, though: walk-in closets.
If you have that much clothing, you
probably ought to give more stuff to
charity drives. The home in which I
grew up had two little hallway closets
one for each pair of bedrooms.
It also wouldnt have an entertain-
ment and communications center.
The computer and the TV are not on
speaking terms.
Hey, I must have fallen asleep over
the papers Homes section and start-
ed dreaming again. I think Ill turn to
the story about the federal deficit talks.
Thats so much less frustrating.

Reach him at tmooney2@ptd.net.
And thats it.
Youre very involved with the Wilkes-
Barre Riverfront Parks Committee and
RiverFest, correct? Ive been with
them at least 20 years. I started off
picking up trash and then someone
asked me if Id help out coordinating
some of the events. I was also on the
board and was president for about five
years.
Music? Bob Dylan. I like jazz. I like
classical music. You can look at the CDs
that I have or the old vinyl that I have,
and you can find Big Brother and The
Holding Company and Cream, and you
can find something from Wagner or
Wagnerian opera, or Wes Montgomery, a
jazz guitarist, or Felix Slatkin. Frank
Sinatra, big band music, Herbie Hancock
... I like a wide variety.
Favorite food? Italian. But typically
what I eat on a regular basis, because of
my training, is fuel. Its very simple stuff:
carbohydrates, protein and a lot of fruits
and vegetables. And its simply pre-
pared, because Im not going to go
through a whole lot of effort to make
something that to me is simply fuel.
Always in the fridge? Bags of spin-
ach.
Favorite city to visit? New York. Its
energizing. And its a great place to run.
Favorite place for vacation? The shore.
Anyplace where theres an ocean.
Favorite movies? Paths of Glory, Monty
Python and The Holy Grail and The Usual
Suspects.
Favorite TV shows? My favorite was
Seinfeld. But I usually have television on to
listen to news. Ill have on MSNBC, or CNN
or CNBC.
Favorite quote? No excuses, no regrets.
And The mind, once expanded to the
dimensions of larger ideas, never returns to
its original size. Oliver Wendell Homes.
Tell us something about yourself that
might surprise people. I carried the Olym-
pic Torch in 2001, for the 2002 Winter
Olympics.
Defining moment? When I decided to go
into the Air Force. That was not an easy
thing to do. Talk about going out of your
comfort zone. But it had a huge impact.
Everything else flowed from that.
Youve worked with the Chamber for
three years and, prior to that, had been a
volunteer there for many years. Youve
also worked as a computer operator for
the Civil Service Commission, for IMB, for
the American Red Cross and with Little
Flower Manor. What do you enjoy most
about your current position? The inter-
action. Its the fact that you are a part of
this building process. Youre helping
people with their businesses. You can
feel yourself as being integral in the
possible success of something.
What do you enjoy doing outside of
work? Im a runner. Ive been running
for 33 years. Ill be doing my 17th mara-
thon in October. I enjoy that. I run by

ouble, double, toil andbigtrouble. WilliamShakespearepennedhistragedyMacbeth sometimebetween
1603and1607, andthis workof classic Englishliterature is showingits age.
Althoughtheplayis compulsoryfor most highschool students, onlythosewithaloveof languagecanremem-
ber muchmore thana fewiconic lines once they put downthe script.
Macbeth has been adapted into film, nov-
els, opera, television, andcomicbooks tohelp
preservetheclassictaleof regicide, buttheres
stillsomethingkeepingkidsfromunderstand-
ingShakespeares vision.
To hear Daniel Gallagher explain it, that
something is its lack of robots. Gallagher, a
Forty Fort native and CGI animator, is work-
ing on an out-of-this-world animation project
that hebelievescanreconcileMacbethwith
todays audience.
To help update Shakespeares play for the
technology age, Gallagher is employing the
aid of Kickstarter, an online fundraising plat-
formas innovativeandexperimental as his vi-
sion.
Gallaghers appreciation of Macbeth can
be traced to his sophomore year at Bishop
OReillyHighSchool, whenhereadtheplayas
part of Anne Butlers English class. For those
who may forget, the tragedy tells the story of
the title character, a brave Scottish warrior
Theres not a wasted page. When theres not
action going on, theres certainly intrigue. Af-
ter studyingShakespeare incollege literature
classes andworkingwiththe plays onstage, I
came to realize theres a lot more in the play
thanI initially got out of it inhighschool. But
even then I was asking questions: did the
witches really see the future for Macbeth, or
didthey influence his actions?
Now Gallagher is coupling his talent for
analyzingliteraturewithwhat hecallshisfull-
time hobby, CGI animation, to create a film
that will encourage high school students to
keep asking questions about Shakespeares
work.
Theres nothing remotely boring about
this story! Its a power struggle, a political
thriller, a morality tale, and a bloodbath. Its
got dark magic, and evil deeds. Its got re-
venge, and battle, and twisting prophecies,
whoconspireswithhiswife, LadyMacbeth, to
murder the rightful king of Scotland and as-
sume the throne. Prophesying witches and
political rivals torment Macbeth before he
dies fighting the rightful heir to the throne.

dia University students per-
formed more than 1,200
hours of community service
volunteering as high school
tutors and literacy advocates
and helping fellow students
acclimate to college life as
part of the AmeriCorps Com-
munity Fellows project.
The AmeriCorps Communi-
ty Fellows project is designed
to develop students as active

ing in the areas of college ac-
cess and success, preparing

dar year.
The participating students,
who have varied backgrounds
and majors, are: Cory Chikow-
ski, a nursing major from

speech-language pathology
major from Forty Fort; Rachel
Ruane, an early childhood,

tion major from Roaring
Brook Township; and Jessica

from Dupont.
Upon successful completion
of their term of service, each

tional Service Trust which can
be used to repay qualified stu-
dent loans, pay current educa-
tional expenses and/or pay

ified institution of higher
learning. They also receive
support and training from
Pennsylvania Campus Com-
pact throughout the project.

Myproject is anewstaging, not
an adaptation, Gallagher says.
ImputtingrobotsinaCyberScot-
land, but it will adhere faithfully to
the text. The project will only be
completed if Gallagher can raise
the production costs. The sculp-

mation programs necessary to cre-
ate a 2-hour robot rendering of the
tragedycarrya pricetagof $8,900.
When it comes to raising the
money, though, Gallagher has

his courage to the sticking-place
andsubmittedhisproposal toKick-

Jennifer Joseph, a visual artist
from Santa Fe, N. M., and fellow
pledger echoes Curciones senti-
ments. Because of the preva-
lence of video games today, she
says, kids have a relationship
with visual language. Dans pro-
ject, conceptually, is great. Im
hoping for full funding of his pro-
ject. The great thing about Kick-
starter is that its a give-as-you-
canprogram; youcanraisealot of
money in small increments,
which is fantastic in todays eco-
nomic environment.

supportersmaybeAnneButler, the

Gallagher, who Butler remem-
bers as havinganeasy time naviga-

believes a new staging of The

INDIANAPOLIS David Ragan, in
the midst of a career breakthrough, add-
edthe pole for the Brickyard400 at Indi-
anapolis Motor Speedway to his sud-
denly improved resume.
Ragan earned his first career Sprint
Cup Series victory earlier this month at
Daytona, a track long considered to be
the crownjewel of NASCAR. Indianapo-
lis ranks among the most prestigious
tracks in the world, and Ragans pole-
winningrunSaturday was nosmall feat.
He made his run late in the session,
with three-time Brickyard winner Jim-
mie Johnson holding down the top spot
on the leaderboard. Ragan turned a lap
of 182.994 mph in his Roush Fenway
Racing Ford to bump Johnson from the
pole.
It will be cool to lead the pack, Ra-
gan said. Its an honor to be here and to
be the fastest guy at Indy. This is a great
track. Any type of accomplishment you
get here is cool.
Its Ragans second career pole. His
first came in April at Texas.
It was a good lap, I didnt
make a mistake, Ragan said. It
wasnt as aggressive as I wanted
to be. But I knew if I hit my marks,
had a conservative lap, Id at least have
a top-five.
Kasey Kahne made his qualifying run
after Raganandjumpedinfront of John-
son with a lap at 182.927 mph in a Toyo-
ta from Red Bull Racing.
We just have to be there at the end,
Kahne said. It seems thats how this
race is won, being up front at the end.
Youre not just going to pass five, six
cars. When you get to turn one, youve
got to be one of those top couple of
cars more times than not.

ortheastern Pennsylvania has turned
out its fair share of athletes that have
garnered national attention.
In football alone, names like Rocket
and Qadry Ismail are recognized by
sports fans around the country.
But the area hasnt exactly been a hotbed of
cycling in the past.
That could change as a pair of young area cy-
clists have a chance to earn some international
recognition.
Booey Hottenstein, of Kingston, and Luke Lu-
kas, of Courtdale, will be heading to West Flan-
ders, Belgium, to race and train for a month.
Weve got some pretty pure talent here, said
Paul Lukas, president of the Upstate Velo Club
and Luke Lukas father.
The pair will be making the trip as part of a
group of riders with the FCS Cycling Team out of
Texas. The team is owned by Tim Reduss Vertex
Cycling, a group founded to address the needs of
elite level, developing bicycle racers and to en-
hance the sport of competitive cycling in the U.S.
They are receiving support from the Upstate
Velo Club along with its sponsors Hi-Tech Floor-
ing, Pride Mobility Products, L.T. Verrastro Inc.
and TeeDude.com and Sicklers Bike shop and
Mark and Sue Farrell (former owners of Sicklers).
Upstate Velo, Sicklers Bike Shop, and Mark
and Sue Farrell have been absolutely instrumental
to the development of cycling in the area, Hotten-
stein said. Luke and I couldnt thank them
enough for their support.
The Velo Club also helped send David Novak, of

cle races as part of a team owned by a group founded to enhance the sport of cycling in the U.S.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. Chad Ochocinco
promised to tone down his antics now that hes in
New England, where coach Bill Belichick likes his
players to be seen and rarely heard.
That lasted all of five minutes.
Aftercallinghimself achameleonwhocanblend

riding the wave and soaring with his angel wings.
Then, by way of introduction to the crush of media
surrounding himfor his first availability inNewEn-
gland, he asked for a group hug.
It is going to be a little quiet. You wont get the

uddenly, everyones flocking to
the Philadelphia Eagles.
And this flurry of activity has
put Philadelphia at the front of the
pack.
The Eagles are the team to beat
now, after bringing some of the big-
gest names in the business to town.
Theyve added game-changers Do-
minique Rodgers-Cromartie, Nnamdi
Asomugha, Jason Babin and Vince
Young to a team that already boasts
Michael Vick, DeSean Jackson and
LeSean McCoy.
Its like a dream team, said Young,
the teams new backup quarterback.
If this is a dream, Eagles fans dont
want to be awakened.
Theyre wide-eyed over a 48-hour
spending spree that should make the
Eagles Super Bowl favorites in the
NFC.
Whos better?
The Eagles now have the best cor-
nerback tandem in the league. They
could have the best two front-line
quarterbacks of any team. And now
theyll get more push from their pass
rush.
All because theyre in a rush to win
it all.
The Eagles are all-in, Eagles presi-
dent Joe Banner said.
Dont bet against them this time.
The Eagles figured Kevin Kolbs
time was up, so they traded their
once-promising quarterback of the
future to Arizona. In exchange, they
got a lockdown cornerback who has
picked off 13 passes during his three
NFL seasons and returned four of
them for touchdowns.
That Thursday deal was only the
start of a team transformation for the
Eagles.
Its dramatic, Banner said.
For Philadelphias opponents, the
change could be traumatic.
The Eagles signed Asomugha, who
was so dynamic in Oakland that quar-
terbacks only had a 50-50 shot of
completing a pass when they threw
his way. And last year, they threw the
ball his way just 19 times the entire
season.
Meanwhile, Jason Babin was having
a breakout season as a pass-rushing
defensive end for Tennessee. If he can
come anywhere close to accumulating
12 sacks this year after signing with
the Eagles, Philadelphia can count on
a furious pass rush with Babin on one
side and Trent Cole on the other.
On the other side of the ball, they
signed Young to take Kolbs place and
back up Vick.
Thats four big names added to the
Eagles game plan.
It sent shock waves through the
NFL, said Babin, who was a training
camp cut by the Eagles a couple years
ago. Its impressive.
Its a statement, heard loud and far.
The Eagles are putting their chips
on the table, gambling a Super Bowl
run is in their immediate future.
They wanted to come to a team
that gave them a chance to get to a
Super Bowl, Reid said of his new
recruits. I appreciate that. Thats
what we strive for every year.
Striving doesnt always mean thriv-
ing.
The Eagles are still smarting from
four NFC Championship game defeats
during Reids 12-year tenure.
Theres a big focus on relieving the
pain of being so close so many times
and not getting there, Banner said.
The Eagles got better in one fell
swoop during the early days of train-
ing camp.
They practiced at Lehigh University
in front of fans for the first time Sat-
urday, and spent the morning listen-
ing to chants of Super Bowl. Those
cries always come from the stands at
camp.
This time, they sounded more real.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. If the Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre Yankees hope to win the International
League North for a sixth con-
secutive year, they cant turn in
many more appearances like
Saturday night.
The Yankees struck first
against last-place Rochester but
gave up six unanswered runs
and lost 6-2 before a sellout
crowd of 11,436 at Frontier
Field.
The Yankees are in third
place in the IL North, four
games behindLehighValley and
two behind second-place Paw-
tucket.
The Yankees scored an un-
earned run in the first inning off
Kevin Slowey, but could do
nothing over the next seven in-
nings against the control spe-
cialist, who is on the trade block as the major-
league deadline hits today.
He was really on tonight, second baseman

Barre Yankees have taken a page
from their parent club by winning

Editors Note: Heres a look at the
Phillies top prospects, according to
MLB.com, how they are faring and
where they are currently playing:
Russ Canzler: The Hazleton
Area grad, who is an outfielder
for Durham, the Triple-A affil-
iate of the Tampa Bay Rays, has
been playing exceptionally well.

doubles and 62 RBI. He was also
named MVP of the Triple A
All-Star Game earlier this sea-
son.

ton Heights grad and the 10th
overall draft pick by the Padres
last month got off to a stellar
start for the Short-Season Eu-
gene (Ore.) Emeralds and was
promoted to Class-A Fort Wayne
(Ind.) in the Midwest League.
After hitting .384 for the Em-
eralds, he has struggled early on
for the Tin Caps. Hes batting
.167 (9-for-54) with 5 RBI and
two stolen bases in eight games.
Overall in the minors, hes bat-
ting .300 (42-for-140) with a
home run, 25 RBI and 12 stolen
bases in 39 games.

MOOSIC When the Scran-
ton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees
broke spring training and head-
ed north to Moosic, they didnt
plan on Doug Bernier being
their starting shortstop. He
wasnt in the starting lineup
when the team opened its
season in Lehigh Valley. How-
ever, now he is in the starting
lineup and is playing a big role
as the teams everyday short-
stop.
Its a nice surprise. I have
been in the game a long time
and I know even if youre not
starting at the beginning of the
year, opportunities always
come up at some point, Ber-
nier said. Its been nice to
have the opportunity to play
every day, its been a lot of
fun.
Some players have gotten
down on themselves if they
didnt play as often as they
would have liked. However,
Bernier continued to work
hard as if he were playing ev-
ery day rather than let it effect
his play on the field. The prep-
aration paid off and due to
injuries and call-ups the Yankee
infielder has been a regular at
shortstop.
Its tough, because everyone
wants to play, Bernier said.
But going into the year I un-
derstood the situation and
knew the level of talent of the
guys we had on the team.
So, you just try and prepare
every day as if you would be
playing and when you do get
the opportunity, you dont
want to be surprised by it.
The 2011 season marks Ber-
niers second stint with the
Yankees organization. Bernier
feels this season has gone
much better than 2009 did.
In 79 games with Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre in 2009, he batted
.181 with no home runs and
just 20 RBI. He has really turn-
ed it around in his second stint
with the Yankee organization.
As of July 28, he is hitting .279
and had 23 RBI, which is al-
ready three more than his RBI
total of 2009. He considers the
2009 season his worst in pro-
fessional baseball.
It was draining, because
that was my worst year, Ber-
nier said. It was frustrating to
have that kind of year knowing
you are a free agent the next
year and hoping you can find a
job somewhere.
However, years later he has a
job with the Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre Yankees and he is happy
to be back in the organization.
I had a good time when I
was over here and the fact that
they showed interest and want-
ed me back after I didnt have a
very good year for them in
2009 gave me some confidence
and excitement, Bernier said.
I love playing for this orga-
nization, because they preach
winning and team together-
ness.
Bernier has taken full ad-
vantage of his second opportu-
nity with the Yankee orga-
nization. He combined hard
work in the offseason and hard
work during the season to get
his game to where it is today.
I started to feel myself get-
ting better about a month and
a half into the season, Bernier
said. I was starting to trust
myself more. I think the whole
trust factor and taking what I
have been working on into the
game and seeing that it can
work.
Many players have said the
game of baseball is just as
much a mental game as it is a
physical game. Bernier is no
exception. After working with
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre hitting
coach Butch Wynegar, he has
taken a different mental ap-
proach at the plate.
He (Wynegar) talked a lot
about the mental side of hit-
ting, Bernier said. He would
ask me, what am I really trying
to do with this at bat. One of
his favorite lines he always tells
me is, a bad approach is always
better than no approach.
Although Bernier is appear-
ing regularly in the Yankee
lineup, he still feels there are
things he needs to work on.
I really want to become a
more consistent hitter, Ber-
nier said. Baseball for me has
always been like a chess match
and if you stop working and
trying to get better, then I
think you need to find some-
thing else to do.

For The Times Leader
I really want to become a more consistent hitter. Baseball for me
has always been like a chess match and if you stop working and try-
ing to get better, then I think you need to find something else to do.

Tunkhannock, to Canada re-
cently to compete in the Tour
de lAbitibi, an extremely presti-
gious junior race.
Hottenstein, 18, and Lukas,
16, leave for Belgium tonight.
I really dont know what to
expect, said Lukas, 16. Its a
chance to get a lot better real
quick.
According to his father and
Hottenstein, Lukas can expect
a country that loves its cycling.
The sport is so popular that
there are races every day, said
Paul Lukas, adding that the
races are all within 30 or 40
miles of where the two cyclists
will be staying.
It would be like if they had a
race in Pittston here one day,
then Nanticoke the next day
then Scranton the next.
Hottenstein and Lukas will
race three days a week and use
the other three races as training
or recovery days. All the while
living with other young cyclists
in what can best be described
as a bike hostel.
The international experi-
ence that these riders will gain
is immeasurable, from thinking
tactically, adopting new train-
ing and recovery techniques,
and racing under all conditions
and road surfaces, Paul Lukas
said. They will then bring this
knowledge back to young rid-
ers in our area to help them
perform better.
Lukas, the son of Paul and
Jane Lukas, will race against
junior competition. Hottenstein
will race against elite amateurs
and some professional riders
who are under 23.
Its a step up in competi-
tion, said Hottenstein, the son
of Nora and Bill Hottenstein, of
Kingston. They are super
fast.
Hottenstein, who made the
trip last year, added that its not
so much that the quality of
cyclists in Europe is better, but
the fact that there are so many
more top-notch riders than in
the United States.
It Lukas first taste of in-
ternational competition. He
started riding a bike when he
was 8 or 9, like most kids.
But he has been riding com-
petitively only since last year,
competing in between 20 and
25 races.
There is nothing like it,
Lukas said of racing. Pushing
yourself to the limit and then
blowing up Theres just
something about it.
Lukas has yet to land on the
top spot on the podium, but he
said he does have multiple
second-place finishes.
For him, the trip to Europe is
all about getting some experi-
ence and becoming a better
rider.
Its a chance to get a lot
better real quick, he said.
That doesnt mean the Valley
West junior hasnt been work-
ing hard to get ready for the
competition.
He has been training like a
convict, his father said.
Hottenstein has a bit more
experience racing, riding com-
petitively since he has been 9
or 10.
Last year, he also competed
in the Tour de lAbitibi in Cana-
da.
For Hottenstein the experi-
ence will be a big plus, too, but
he is also looking for some
good finishes.
Its a big step up, he said. I
like to finish in the front top
10s, top 20s.
He added that if everything
goes just right for him, perhaps
he could even find himself in
the top spot on a podium.
Its a slim possibility, Hot-
tenstein said of winning a race
overseas. But its still a possi-
bility.
Hottenstein will begin col-
lege in the fall at Northeastern,
majoring in International Busi-
ness with a minor in Spanish.
Booey Hottenstein, of Kingston, and Luke Lukas, of Courtdale, leave for Belgium tonight.

LOS ANGELES Mardy
Fish fought from behind in the
third set to advance to his
second straight final, beating
teenager Ryan Harrison 6-0,
4-6, 7-6 (3) at the Farmers
Classic on Saturday.
Fish and Harrison were
playing a rematch of their
semifinal last week in Atlanta,
where Fish won his first title
of the season.
The top-seeded Fish defeat-
ed Harrison in straight sets in
Atlanta and picked up where
he left off Saturday, breezing
through the opening set in 20
minutes. A frustrated Harrison
won only six points.
Thats probably the clean-
est set of tennis Ive played in
a long time, Fish said.
Harrison responded in the
second set and pushed Fish to
the brink in the third. Fish
regrouped and went up 5-0 in
the tiebreaker and won the
match with an ace.
Its never going to be like
that for two sets, Fish said. I
was playing at an extremely
high level. You expect him to
bounce back and play better.
And he did.
Fish has won six career
titles, but has never reached
the final at this tournament.
He will play the winner of the
second semifinal between Alex
Bogomolov Jr. of the U.S. and
Ernests Gulbis of Latvia.
The 19-year-old Harrison
was trying for his first career
final. He is the first American
teen to make consecutive
semifinals appearances since
Andy Roddick in 2002.
Harrisons current run has
pushed him to a career-best
94th in the world. With the
loss, he fell to 0-7 when facing
top-10 players.
I dont feel like I cant beat
(Fish), Harrison said. It was
a coin-flip there at the end,
and he won.
Harrison showed his emo-
tions in the third set, smash-
ing his racket to the court and
bending it in half after Fish
broke his serve.
Harrison received a warning
from the chair umpire and
tossed the mangled racket to a
group of kids sitting courtside.
Cilic to play Dolgopolov in
Croatia Open final
UMAG, Croatia Marin
Cilic defeated Fabio Fognini of
Italy 6-2, 6-2 Saturday to ad-
vance to the Croatia Open
final against Aleksandr Dolgo-
polov of Ukraine.
The fourth-seeded Cilic
dropped serve only once in
the match, at the start of the
second set, before becoming
the first Croat to reach the
Umag final since Goran Prpic
defeated compatriot Goran
Ivanisevic in 1990.
In the other semifinal Sat-
urday, the second-seeded Dol-
gopolov beat Juan Carlos Fer-
rero of Spain 6-4, 6-4.
It was not as easy as it
looks, Cilic said. I had to
play really hard to win. My
serve went up and down,
especially in the second set.
But I am really happy how I
played.

Fish tops Harrison,
makes another final
The Associated Press
Kevin Russo said. We couldnt
do much of anything against
him.
Slowey scattered five hits,
walked none and struck out eight
(five looking) in a 104-pitch ef-
fort. Mike Lamb hit a solo homer
off Kyle Waldrop in the top of the
ninth.
The fans turned out to watch
the Red Wings, the Famous
Chicken, postgame fireworks
and to some degree, the Yankees.
Western New York is Yankee ter-
ritory, and interest in New Yorks
top farm club is high.
The Yankees entered the night
35-24 on the road, including an
impressive 19-9 against IL North
foes. Rochester, which has the
second-worst record in the IL, is
just 25-32 at home.
We cant worry about that
(losing to a last-place club), Rus-
so said. A loss is a loss.
The Yankees struck right off
the bat and in this case, the
glove. Russo flied to center on
the secondpitchof the game, and
the ball glanced off the heel of
Rene Tosoni.
Russo reached second, moved
to third on Greg Golsons sacri-
fice bunt and scored on Jesus
Monteros bloop single to right.
Yankees starter Adam Warren
gave it back with interest. Jeff
BaileyandAaronBates singledin
runs inthe bottomof the first and
Rene Riveras solo homer off the
railing in left field made it 3-1.
Mike Hollimons 30-foot nub-
ber down the third-base line
scored Toby Gardenhire from
third with Rochesters fourth run
inthe fourthinning. Hollimonhit
a pitchfromWarrenoff the endof
his bat, and both Warren and
third baseman Brandon Laird let
the ball roll, hoping it would go
foul.
It didnt, andthe Wings capital-
ized. They scored another run in
the fifthona wildpitchfromWar-
ren.
Warren (6-4) allowed five runs
on eight hits in his five-inning
stint. He suffered his first loss
since June 30.
The Wings padded their lead
with a run in the seventh, scoring

PHILADELPHIA Ryan
Howard had four hits, includ-
ing a homer and two doubles,
and three RBIs to lead the
Philadelphia Phillies to a 7-4
victory over the Pittsburgh
Pirates on Saturday night.
Hunter Pence had an RBI
single in his debut for the Phil-
lies after he was acquired from
the Houston Astros Friday
night for three minor leaguers.
Cliff Lee (10-7) struck out 11
to reach double digits for the
16th time in his 10-year career,
including seven this season. He
allowed four runs on eight hits
and walked two in 7 2-3 in-
nings.
Ryan Madson pitched a
scoreless ninth, striking out
the side, for his 17th save in 18
chances.
James McDonald (7-5) gave
up five runs on 10 hits while
striking out five and walking
two.
Maya gets first career win,
Nats shut out Mets 3-0
Nationals 3, Mets 0
WASHINGTON Jayson
Werth hit a three-run home
run, and Yunesky Maya, filling
in for traded starter Jason
Marquis, earned his first career
win for the Washington Nation-
als in a 3-0 victory over the
New York Mets on Saturday
night.
Maya (1-1) allowed five hits
in 5 1-3 scoreless innings after
being recalled from Triple-A
Syracuse when Marquis was
traded to the Arizona Dia-
mondbacks shortly before the
game. Maya, who made his
major league debut with Wash-
ington last season, was making
his fourth start of the season
and 10th of his career. He en-
tered the game with an 0-4
career record.
The Nationals snapped a
six-game losing streak, their
longest of the season.
The Mets were shutout for
the fifth time this season and
ended a five-game winning
streak.
Cardinals 13, Cubs 5
ST. LOUIS Albert Pujols
and David Freese each home-
red and Ryan Theriot added
four hits and three RBI to help
the St. Louis Cardinals over-
come a five-run deficit in a 13-5
victory over the Chicago Cubs.
It was the 432nd homer of
Pujols career and came one
day after he reached 2,000 hits.
The home run places him
alone in 40th place on the
career list. He just missed
getting a second one when the
ball sailed just outside the
left-field foul pole in the sev-
enth inning.
Braves 5, Marlins 1
ATLANTA Tim Hudson
allowed one run in seven in-
nings, Dan Uggla hit a three-
run homer and the Atlanta
Braves beat the Florida Mar-

run shot in the second inning,
extended his career-best hitting
streak to 21 games.
The Marlins have dropped
two straight following a five-
game winning streak.
Hudson (10-7) allowed six
hits, one run and no walks with
five strikeouts.
Brewers 6, Astros 2

innings and Prince Fielder hit a

NEW YORK Robinson
Cano, Nick Swisher and
the New York Yankees
broke loose for 12 runs in
the first inning Saturday
night, setting a franchise
record en route to a 17-3
rout of the Baltimore
Orioles that completed a
painfully embarrassing
sweep of their split double-
header.
Cano went 5 for 5 with
five RBIs, a career high for
hits, and Swisher smacked
his second two-run homer
of the day in the nightcap.
Curtis Granderson added
four hits for the Yankees,
who roughed up both
young pitching prospects
called up from the minors
to start for Baltimore.
New York opened a 15-0
lead after two innings,
making it an easy night for
Ivan Nova (9-4) in his re-
turn from Triple-A Scran-
ton/Wilkes-Barre.
Mariners 3, Rays 2
SEATTLE Rookie Mi-
chael Pineda gave up just
one hit and struck out a
career-high 10, Dustin Ack-
ley homered, doubled and
scored twice, and the Seat-
tle Mariners won for just
the second time in 20
games, 3-2 over the Tampa
Bay Rays on Saturday.
Angels 5, Tigers 1
DETROIT Dan Haren
pitched a six-hitter for his
second complete game
against the Detroit Tigers
in 25 days, leading the Los
Angeles Angels to a victo-
ry.

and struck out one. In two
starts against Detroit, he is
2-0 with a 0.50 ERA.

Holland pitched a four-
hitter to win his fourth
straight decision, Mitch

CHICAGO Jon Lester
pitched eight strong in-
nings and the Boston Red
Sox got homers from
Adrian Gonzalez and Kevin
Youkilis and three RBIs
from Marco Scutaro in
victory over the Chicago
White Sox.
Indians 5, Royals 2
CLEVELAND Matt
LaPortas three-run homer
with two outs in the ninth
inning gave Cleveland its
12th home win its last at
bat.
LaPorta connected off
Royals closer Joakim Soria
(5-4) on a 1-1 pitch. It was
Sorias sixth blown save in
25 changes.
Tony Sipp (6-2) pitched
the top of the ninth.
Soria hit Asdrubal Cabre-
ra in the right foot with a
pitch and Travis Hafner
bounced into a forceout
and was replaced by pinch
runner Orlando Cabrera at
first base. Carlos Santana
then doubled down the
third-base line to put run-
ners on second and third.

WASHINGTON Its on to
the next step for the NFL and its
players, who are getting closer to
a full-fledged collective bargain-
ing agreement.
The NFL and NFLPA staffs
have been working for the past
few days on the final details of
the new CBA, league spokes-
man Greg Aiello wrote in an
email to The Associated Press on
Saturday.
A person familiar with the ne-
gotiations confirmed to the AP
that the NFL Players Association
already re-established itself as a
union. The person spoke on con-
dition of anonymity because no
announcement had been made
by the NFLPA.
Re-establishing the union was
a key step needed to finish a CBA
after the main parts of the deal to
end the NFLs 4
1
2-month lockout
were agreed to by owners on July
21 and by players on Monday.
Only a union can negotiate items
such as drug testing, player con-
duct policy and disability and
pension programs.
For the lockout to remain lift-
ed and the season to proceed,
those issues must be resolved
and a full CBA completed by
Thursday, a deadline both sides
are confident will be met.
In March, when federally me-
diated talks in Washington be-
tween owners and players broke
down and the old CBA expired,
the NFLPA said it was dissolving
itself as a union and instead be-
coming a trade association. That
move allowed the players to sue
the league under antitrust law,
and10 did, including TomBrady,
Peyton Manning and Drew
Brees. That case was settled as
part of the deal the sides have
agreed to.
But by decertifying, the
NFLPA gave up its right to bar-
gain on behalf of all players un-
der labor law. Thats why the
union needed to formagain in or-
der to complete a CBA.
Once the CBA is fully squared
away, veteran free agents who
have signed new contracts in the
past few days will be allowed to
practice with their teams. Those
players are currently allowed to
attend team meetings, work out
individually and watch but
not participate in practice.
Its frustrating, Buffalo Bills
receiver/quarterback Brad
Smith said after watching the
teams first walk-through of train-
ing camp in suburban Rochester
on Saturday. Its good. I can sit
here and watch the guys go
through the plays and learn the
system. It hurts a little bit. But
its a positive opportunity.
The former New York Jets
multipurpose offensive star
signed a four-year contract with
the Bills on Friday.
In addition to the Bills, at least
the following teams had voted in
favor of re-certification as of Sat-
urday afternoon: Patriots,
Chiefs, Broncos, Bengals, Cow-
boys, Jaguars, Browns, Saints
and Steelers, 49ers, Falcons, Gi-
ants, Titans, Buccaneers and
Bears.
Giants player rep Kareem
McKenzie said of his teams
unanimous vote: The guys real-
ly wanted to go ahead. Once they
had an idea of what the deal en-
compassed and all we gained, the
guys really wanted to get back to
work.
Said Broncos safety Brian
Dawkins, a member of the
NFLPAs executive committee:
It was an easy sell.
While noting that the final
CBA is not yet done, Dawkins
was confident the final issues
will be settled.
De and those guys will contin-
ue to hash those things out, he
said, referring to NFLPA execu-
tive director DeMaurice Smith.
We have nothing but 100 per-
cent trust in De. He knows what
we want. He knows what, obvi-
ously, we need.

Re-establishing union was key
step into completing CBA
between owners and players.
By HOWARD FENDRICH
AP Pro Football Writer
chameleon, so I amgoing to blend
in and do it the Patriot way, which
is win. We had our talk, and with-
out him(Belichick) evenhavingto
saying anything there is no
need for some of the stuff I did be-
fore. Theres no need for it.
The Patriots were among the
biggest newsmakers in the league
coming out of the lockout, agree-
ing to trades for Ochocinco and
Redskins defensivelinemanAlbert
Haynesworth shortly after the
NFL reopened for business.
Whats most unusual: Neither
player is whats thought of as the
usual type for Belichick, who pre-
fers the quiet and businesslike to
the guys who make headlines off
the field.
I think every player on this
team, every person on this team,
has their own individual personal-
ity, Belichicksaid. None of us are
the same, sothats probably a good
thing.
Ochocinco, who was originally
ChadJohnson, has caught 751pas-
ses for 10,783 yards and 66 touch-
downs in his 10-year career. But he
is perhaps better known for his
touchdown celebrations, for
changing his legal name to the
Spanishwords for 8and5tomatch
his uniform number, and for his
prolific tweeting almost 30,000
messages to more than 2.4 million
Twitter followers.
Belichick is not among them.
Thats not something I follow,
as you know, he said, smiling.
So far, the biggest complication
in Ochocincos arrival in New En-
gland had been tight end Aaron
Hernandez owning No. 85. Ocho-
cinco said he didnt have to pay
himanything for the No. 85. (Her-
nandez switched to No. 81.)
This was Mr. Hernandezs way
of greeting me here. He gave me
thenumberandI didnt havetopay
anything, I just shookhis handand
I said, Thank you, Ochocinco
said. I drive a Toyota Prius, so I
was going to let him use my Prius
on the weekends, and thats about
the best I can do right now. I have
some leftover McDonalds cou-
pons since I dont eat there any-
more.
A two-time Pro Bowl selection
in Tennessee, Haynesworths tal-
ent was completely overshadowed
in Washington by his legal prob-
lems andhis feudwithcoachMike
Shanahan that ended with Thurs-
days trade to the Patriots for a
2013 fifth-round draft pick.
All the trades weve been in-
volved in through the years the
Ted Washingtons and the Corey
Dillons andthe Randy Mosses and
all each one is different. Belich-
ick said In the end, you just try
to do whats best for your football
team.
Haynesworth, who repeatedly
failed his conditioning test in
Washington, did not practice on
Saturday morning.
There are things we still need
todowithAlbert for himtobeable
to get on the practice field and
when those things are done, hell
be out there, the coach said.
OCHOCINCO
SPARTANBURG, S.C. Cam
Newtonquietly walkedaroundas
cameras swarmed Carolinas new
kicker Olindo Mare. Newton
peeked out from behind a lens
and asked his Panthers team-
mate, How hot was it today?
Newton sure didnt act like a
No. 1 pick shortchanged by the
rookie wage scale.
The Heisman Trophy winner
spoke Saturday for the first time
since signing a four-year, $22 mil-
lion contract with the Panthers.
His deal was set by the newly bar-
gained rookie scale that was part
of the agreement between NFL
owners and players.
Newton took a major financial
hit as the drafts top selection,
getting$56millionor soless than
Sam Bradfords $78 million, six-
year deal he got as St. Louis No. 1
pick.
It really doesnt matter, New-
ton said. Either way you look at
it, Ive still got more money than
Ive ever had.
And Newton knows that he re-
aches his potential onthefootball
field, hell make up any financial
disparity later.
In this league, they set stan-
dards, Newton said. If you play
the way theyre predicting you to
play, youre going to be all right
either way it goes.
Newton was eager to take the
field for his first practice at Wof-
ford College later Saturday and
said holding out was never an op-
tion, even before the NFL lock-
out. Hespent thetimeawaytrain-
ing, working out with star Pan-
thers receiver Steve Smith in
some private sessions that
proved to Newton the Panthers
have plentyof offense despite last
years dismal 2-14 showing.
Newtonhopes he canbe part of
that. He received the offensive
coordinator Rob Chudzinskis
playbook in April in the short
time a judge lifted the NFL lock-
out. Newtons worked to learn
what he can, but knows he cant
really progress until he gets back
on the field. Hell wear No. 1 at
Panthers camp with quarterback
rival Jimmy Clausen wearing No.
2, the jersey number Newton
wore at Auburn during the 14-0
national championship season.
Newton said he and Clausen
talked about acquiring No. 2, but
in the end thought it was best to
start out fresh.
Rightfully so, since it was his
number, Newton said.
He and Clausen have a healthy,
friendly relationship so far and
bothunderstandthat the quarter-
back competition will make each
one better for the Panthers.
I dont want to give off a sit-
uation where we hate each oth-
ers guts and were just out there
running over each other, New-
ton said. Jimmy is helping me
andI hopeImhelpingJimmy. We
want to bring out the best in each
other.
Therell be plenty of people
hoping Newton can bring the
best out in Carolinas offense,
which set a franchise low in
points scored last year. The 6-
foot-5 Newton knows hell have
some help with that starting with
Smith.
The Panthers sometimes
prickly receiver had nothing but
glowing reviews for Newton in
their workouts, whichapparently
went a long way toward Smith
wanting to remainwiththe team.
Bothof Carolinas headliners in
the backfield, DeAngelo Wil-
liams and Jonathan Stewart, re-
turn and the Panthers picked up
Chicagotight endGregOlsenina
trade to bolster the receiving
corps.
I dont know about you guys,
but I dont know that Ive ever
seenanyone like him, Olsensaid
of his new quarterback. Watch-
ing him on TV is a whole lot dif-
ferent than seeing him in person.
He just has that something about
him, that confidence.
Newtons hopes he can carry
that through camp and into the
regular season. He said hes pre-
pared to work as hard as possible
to show hes ready for the NFL.
Its exciting just to be around
the football atmosphere again,
he said.
Newton is
thrilled to
finally be
in camp
Quarterback has no hard
feelings about getting $56M
less than last years top pick.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.
Two-time Pro Bowl defen-
sive end Osi Umenyiora has
ended his holdout after a
day and reported to the New
York Giants.
Umenyiora reported to
training camp Saturday af-
ternoon after missing the
opening day of training
camp at the teams head-
quarters.
The 29-year-old failed to
report Friday.
He said during the sum-
mer that he was unhappy
with the team because gen-
eral manager Jerry Reese
failed to live up to a promise
to renegotiate his contact af-
ter last season.
Ill be there today, Ume-
nyiora said in a email to The
Associated Press around
3:20 p.m. Saturday.
Neither Umenyiora nor
Reese was available for com-
ment after the player report-
ed around 4 p.m.
Coach Tom Coughlin said
he spoke briefly with Ume-
nyiora and that the defen-
sive end didnt have his
physical because of his late
arrival in the afternoon.
Umenyiora started all 16
games last season and led
the league with 10 forced
fumbles.
His 11
1
2 sacks tied Justin
Tuck for the team lead.
Tuck hinted earlier in the
day that Umenyiora might
return soon.
I think he realizes this is
a business and hes doing
whats best for him. You
cant blame him for that,
Tuck said.
A lot of people have dif-
ferent opinions on how to
handle the situation. You
might not see eye-to-eye
with how he handled it. He
has to do whats best for
him. Thats all I tell him to
do. My biggest concern is
that he doesnt do some-
thing thats going to hurt
Osi.
Umenyiora ripped Reese
in an affidavit filed by play-
ers as part of an antitrust
suit against the league dur-
ing the recent lockout.
Tuck felt the comments
would not be a problem.
A couple years ago Mi-
chael Strahan was in a simi-
lar situation, Tuck said.
He mightve had a little bit
more (leverage) being a fu-
ture Hall of Famer. Youve
got to understand, we just
got out of a tremendous
business deal with just being
able to come out here and
play this game again. It is a
business.
I think a lot of people get
caught up in the loyalty to
the game and things of that
nature like the Giants in this
situation. Were definitely
loyal to the team. But, in
Osis situation, he feels as
though he needs to do this.

RIO DE JANEIRO World
champion Spain was drawn on
Saturday with 1998 winner
France, Georgia, Belarus and Fin-
land in a qualifying group for the
2014 tournament the first
World Cup in Brazil in 64 years.
The United States, featuring
new coach Juergen Klinsmann,
was drawn with Jamaica in a
qualifying group from North and
Central America and the Carib-
bean.
England was placed with 2012
European Championship co-
hosts Ukraine and Poland in
Group H. Montenegro, Moldova
and San Marino also are in the
group.
It will be interesting, there
wont be easy matches, England
coach Fabio Ca-
pello said. En-
gland will have to
be very careful,
especially against
Montenegro, Po-
land and Uk-
raine.
Italy will meet
Denmark and the
Czech Republic in
Group B, while
Germany faces
Sweden, Austria
and Ireland in
Group C.
Sweden and
Irelandare very strongteams and
that makes the group interest-
ing, Germany general manager
Oliver Bierhoff said.
The draw will determine the
path of 166 teams in their bid to
qualify for the tournament in
three years. It was the first major
World Cup event in Brazil since
the South American nation was
awarded the competition in
2007. As host, Brazil is the only
nation that doesnt have to qual-
ify.
We are happy to be back in
Brazil, FIFA President Sepp
Blatter said.
Fifty-three European nations
were divided into nine groups,
with the winners automatically
qualifying and the eight best
group runners-up advancing to a
playoff. European qualifying
matches begin Sept. 7 and end
Oct. 15, 2013.
Spain is in a difficult Group I,
the only one with five teams in-
stead of six.
The Netherlands, last years
runner-up in South Africa, was
drawn in Group D with Turkey,
Hungary and Romania, while
Portugal will have to face Russia
and Israel in Group F.
Group A has Croatia, Serbia,
Belgium and Scotland. Greece
will play Slovakia in Group G,
while Norway was drawn in
Group E with Slovenia and Swit-
zerland.
The U.S. and Jamaica will face
two teams in Group A. that will
come from preliminary qualify-
ing matches featuring Haiti, Gua-
temala, the U.S. Virgin Islands
and five other nations.
Mexico is in Group Bwith Cos-
ta Rica, while Cuba and Hondu-
ras are in Group C. All three
group winners and runners-up
will advance to a final qualifying
round, beginning February 2013.
In Asia, Japan will face Uzbe-
kistan, Syria and North Korea in
Group C, while Australia will
play Saudi Arabia, Oman and
Thailand in Group D.
Iran, Bahrain and Qatar were
drawn in the same Group E,
along with Indonesia, while Chi-
na is inGroupAwithIraq, Jordan
and Singapore.
The African teams were divid-
ed into 10 groups for qualifiers
beginning in November. South
Africa, last years World Cup
host, was drawn in Group A
along with Botswana. Ghana, the
best African team last year, is in
GroupDwithZambia andSudan.
South America was not includ-
ed in the draw because the conti-
nents nine teams will be placed
in a single group. They will play
each other twice, home and
away, with the top four finishers
securing a World Cup spot. The
fifth-place team will advance to
an intercontinental playoff
against a team from Asia. The
other playoff will pit teams from
CONCACAF and Oceania.
The quali-
fiers began
June 15 and
will end
Nov. 19,
2013, after
824 match-
es. Twenty-
eight teams
were elimi-
nated in pre-
liminary
rounds be-
fore Satur-
days draw.
The
World Cup
will be played fromJune 12 to Ju-
ly 13, and the complete schedule
will be announced in October.
Today, Brazil is admired for
more than just football, music
and its popular festivities, Brazi-
lian President Dilma Rousseff
said at the draw. I invite you to
come visit us. You will find a
country very well prepared for
the World Cup.
About 1,000 protesters demon-
strated near the draw, opposing
the removal of families from ar-
eas where the World Cup and the
2016 Rio Olympics will be held,
Brazilian media reported. Some
were also protesting the nearly
$20 million of public funds said
to have been spent for Saturdays
event.
Riot troopers and mounted po-
lice were negotiating to end the
demonstration, which remained
peaceful by the time the drawbe-
gan. Some protesters held ban-
ners criticizing Brazilian soccer
federation president Ricardo
Teixeira and FIFA.
The total of 203 teams vying
for a WorldCupspot surpasses by
three the number that participa-
ted four years ago. The only asso-
ciations not to have signed up to
compete this time are Bhutan,
Brunei Darussalam, Guam and
Mauritania.
Seven nations have qualified
for each of the last six World
Cups Argentina, Brazil, Ger-
many, Italy, South Korea, Spain
and the U.S. Germany has been
the most successful team in
World Cup qualifiers so far, with
only two losses in 74 matches.
Ronaldo, Neymar, Zico and Za-
gallo were among the current
and past Brazilian players partici-
pating in the draw. More than 35
coaches and representatives
from 104 national teams were in
attendance. Rousseff, Pele and
Michel Platini were also at Mari-
na da Gloria harbor in Rio.
Strong wind damaged part of
the auditorium holding the draw
just before the start, but workers
fixed the problemin time and the
event was not disrupted.

INDIANAPOLIS Tony
Stewart seemed to be on a date
with destiny in both of his wins
at Indianapolis Motor Speed-
way, where there was an over-
whelming sense in 2005 and
2007 that nothing could get in
his way in the race to Victory
Lane.
Even though he seemed to be
a lock both of those years, Stew-
art never allowed himself to
think the race was his for the
taking. Hed suffered too many
heartaches at the Brickyard to
assume anything was a given.
I know how much this track
can change. You can have a
great race car in practice and
then when you start the race,
the conditions seem to change
a little bit, Stewart said. Its
just a battle of trying to keep
the car balanced all day. Even
during the race, you can have a
fast car at the beginning and
lose the handle at the end. You
have to make sure you have a
car thats adjustable all day.
Stewart doesnt appear to be
a lock to win today, but he
should at least be a contender.
His Stewart-Haas Racing team
turned a corner two weeks ago
at New Hampshire, where Ryan
Newman led his boss to a 1-2
finish in both qualifying and the
race.
The roll continued into this
week, when Stewart won his
first ever World of Outlaws
race.
So his mood was sky high
when he arrived at the Brick-
yard. Thats a bit of a change for
Stewart, who has admittedly
gotten himself too stressed out
about racing at the track he so
adores.
He had a shot to win the 1996
Indianapolis 500 as a rookie
until a broken part ended his
race on lap 82. He was leading
in 1998 when his engine failed
right after hed moved to the
front.
Then came NASCAR, where
Stewart was a threat to win in
2001 until he bounced off the
wall racing with Dale Jarrett for
the lead. He admitted after-
ward, I was just trying too
hard. The next year he led four
times for 43 laps but faded at
the end, and 2003 saw a slow
final pit stop and a late caution
ruin another chance.
The 2005 victory came when
Stewart had finally found some
peace both with himself he
had moved home to Indiana
earlier that year in a search for
some serenity and the track.
That breakthrough win ended
the love-hate relationship Stew-
art always had with Indy.
I think I got by the hate part
once we won the second one,
he said. You love the place
because of the history of it,
because its home. The hate
part was we worked so hard,
led so many laps, couldnt win.
Once we won the race, think it
took that side of the equation
away, made it that much better.
We got to enjoy it that much
more afterward.
GORDONS GUILT: With a
record $119 million in winnings
in his NASCAR career, Jeff
Gordon is quite accustomed to
the finer things in life.
A fact-finding mission to
Congo last week has left the
four-time NASCAR champion
feeling a bit guilty about the
luxuries he enjoys.
It was an experience that
will change me forever, Gor-
don said of last weeks trip with
the Clinton Global Initiative.
I feel guilty about buying a
bottle of water for two bucks.
You look at your refrigerator
and you go like, Oh my gosh,
theres so much waste here.
You just start looking at every
aspect of your life and the
things you take for granted.
Gordon made the 28-hour
flight to Africa following the
July 17 race at New Hampshire.
He spent almost three days in
Congo, where he saw children
walking barefoot along busy
roads and women carrying
sacks of coal on their backs.
The father of two young chil-
dren said he didnt expect to
see such struggles.
DALE AND DANICA: Dale
Earnhardt Jr. would love the
opportunity to give Danica
Patrick a full-time job in NAS-
CAR.
Patrick could leave IndyCar
at the end of this season to
focus only on NASCAR. Shes
so far driven 19 Nationwide
Series races for Earnhardts JR
Motorsports team.
I would like for her to run
full-time and Im sure she is
considering that, and I think
she would enjoy it, Earnhardt
said.
But he said hes unsure of
what Patrick will do, even
though he believes shes happy
at JRM. Patrick has developed
a decent rapport with crew
chief Tony Eury Jr., and flirted
with victory earlier this month
at Daytona, where she led 13
laps before the last-lap chaos
dropped her to a 10th-place
finish.
I feel confident that shes
content where she is and happy
with what were doing. I think
things are looking positive for
us to put something together,
he said. I think shes doing
great. Shes way ahead of the
curve. Weve had the opportuni-
ty to put several drivers in that
car and her performance is
right on par with all those driv-
ers.
We started out struggling
and she had a steep, steep
climb to go and shes really
come a long way. Im excited
about what the potential is with
her going forward.
Patrick has six more sched-
uled NASCAR starts this sea-
son.
DRIVER SAFETY: Kyle
Busch plans to work with the
B.R.A.K.E.S young driver safety
program in the wake of his
recent speeding ticket.
Busch was ticketed for driv-
ing 128 mph in a 45 mph zone
in a loaned Lexus in May. Now
hell partner with the program
Be Responsible And Keep
Everyone Safe -- that was found-
ed in 2008 after drag racer
Doug Herbert lost two sons in a
car accident.
Busch will do public service
announcements and have mon-
etary donations through the
Kyle Busch Foundation.
Those guys have a great
program and do a lot of great
work for kids that may not
know exactly what driving a car
entails, Busch said. Its cer-
tainly a lot more than just being
able to make it from point A to
point B sometimes. Ill be work-
ing toward about 300 of those
new kids getting through the
program and taking some initia-
tive there to help them through
it and give them some advice
and give them my story.
Busch is due in court Aug. 23
on charges of speeding and
reckless driving.

Johnson, the five-time defend-
ingseries champion, fell tothird.
His lap of 182.801 mph in his
Hendrick Motorsports Chevro-
let had led the qualifying session
until the late runs by Ragan and
Kahne.
He wasnt upset though, and
knows his past success at Indy
will come into play today.
This track is clearly unique
and we dont race on anything
else like it, Johnson said.
When you get it right, you have
an advantage.
Penske Racing teammates
Kurt BuschandBradKeselowski
qualified fourth and fifth in their
Dodges for todays race, and the
drivers have already heard from
team owner Roger Penske on
what theyll need to do to win.
He made a phone call last
night and reminded us that we
needed to try two tires in prac-
tice, Keselowski said.Hes got
this whole game plan and how
the strategy is going to play out.
He definitely studies this race.
He loves coming here.
AJ Allmendinger, Juan Pablo
Montoya, Jeff Gordon, Matt Ken-
seth and series points leader
Carl Edwards rounded out the
top 10.
DavidStremme, Travis Kvapil,
Erik Darnell, JJ Yeley and Scott
Wimmer were the five drivers
who failed to qualify for the race.
Denny Hamlin qualified 14th,
but hell have to drop to the back
of the field at the start of the race
as a penalty for changing his en-
gine.
The move was necessary be-
cause the engine inhis Joe Gibbs
Racing Toyota blew up late in
Fridays final practice.
Its at least the11th engine fail-
ure by a JGRcar this season, and
comes as speculation mounts
that the team will close its en-
gine shop and lease engines next
season frommanufacturer Toyo-
ta.

TOLEDO, Ohio Unflap-
pable Olin Browne fought off
the heat to shoot a 65 and forge
a two-shot lead over Mark
OMeara through Saturdays
third round of the U.S. Senior
Open.
Browne, never a winner in his
three years of competition since
turning 50, set the tournament
record for lowest score through
54 holes. After a record-tying 64
followed by a 69, hes at 15-
under 198.
OMeara, winner of the 1998
Masters and British Open, had a
66 in a head-to-head duel. Play-
ing in the same pairing, he
pulled even with Browne with a
birdie at the ninth hole but
Browne had five birdies on the
difficult back nine.
Heading into the final round,
its apparently a two-man race.
Six shots off the pace at 9-under
204 are Jeff Sluman (65), Peter
Senior (68), Joey Sindelar (69)
and Mark Calcavecchia (69).
Browne is trying to join Si-
mon Hobday, who won at Pine-
hurst No. 2 in 1994, as the only
wire-to-wire winners in the
tournaments 32 years.
His 54-hole total was one
better than Hobdays 199.
Browne began the day with a
one-shot edge on OMeara. They
matched each other swing for
swing, putt for putt, throughout
a day of scorching heat and high
humidity at Inverness Club.
Both birdied the fourth hole,
with OMeara falling two back
with a bogey on the next hole.
Birdies on holes 8 and 9 helped
OMeara catch Browne heading
to the back nine at the old Do-
nald Ross layout, which plays to
a par of 37 on the front but
doesnt have a par-5 hole and
plays to a 34 on the last nine.
Browne hit a wedge to 18
inches for birdie on the 10th
hole and took off. He built a
three-stroke lead with two more
birdies through 13.
OMeara birdied the 17th and
18th to pull within a shot, but
each time Browne with three
wins on his PGA Tour resume,
the last the 2005 Deutsche Bank
dropped in a birdie putt im-
mediately on top of OMearas.
Inverness again remained
defenseless despite sun and high
temperatures. The course was
hit with almost 4 inches of rain
in the last week, with a huge
thunderstorm on Friday morn-
ing delaying play and forcing 21
players to return to the course
on Saturday morning to com-
plete the second round.
Barely staying in range of
Browne and OMeara are Hale
Irwin, who shot his age (66),
along with New Mexico club pro
Jeff Roth (68) and Michael Allen
(71), all at 7-under 206.
Tied for 10th and nine shots
back came a whos who of senior
golf, including defending cham-
pion Bernhard Langer (68), Hal
Sutton (66), Nick Price (68), Jay
Haas (68), Steve Jones (69) and
Corey Pavin (70).
Kim leads by 1 at Greenbrier
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS,
W.Va. Golf is fun again for
Anthony Kim. The Greenbrier
Classic is helping solidify that.
Kim shot an 8-under-par 62
Saturday for a one-stroke edge
over PGA Tour rookie Scott
Stallings after the third round
on the Old White TPC course.
Kims low round of the year
left him at 10 under with a
chance to advance to next
weeks Bridgestone Invitational
with a win. He hasnt missed
Firestone since his rookie year
in 2007.
A third place-or-better finish
would put him in position to
earn a spot in the PGA Cham-
pionship in two weeks in Atlanta
heading into the FedEx Cup
playoffs.
I havent had this much fun
playing golf in a long time, Kim
said.
Stallings shot 66 to move into
second place at 9 under. Gary
Woodland (67) and second
round co-leader Webb Simpson
(69) were two strokes back.
Kims last victory came a year
ago at the Shell Houston Open
before he underwent thumb
surgery and took three months
off. Hes had an up-and-down
year, with eight missed cuts and
two top 10s in 21 events.
Kim tied for fifth at the Brit-
ish Open earlier this month after
making it as an alternate. But
last week he was disqualified
from the Canadian Open after
signing for a score other than an
11-over 81 in the second round.
Kim credited a talk he had
after the disqualification with
his mother, whom he termed a
great golf psychologist.
It was just about having fun,
relaxing and enjoying the posi-
tion Im in because Im very
fortunate to be playing golf for a
living, he said. Sometimes you
forget about that. I was pretty
upset about my 81 and she no-
ticed somebody in the gallery
who was less fortunate. We
talked about that and I came out
here ready to play some golf and
have a good time.
Thats a stark contrast to the
first six months of the year, in
which Kim said he didnt want
to be on the golf course because
he wasnt sure where his shots
would end up.
People may think Im exag-
gerating, but thats how tough
this game got for me, Kim said.
Going back to the basics is
really what helped my game.
Because without that, I would
still be struggling.
Kim made eight birdies, tying
his total from the first two
rounds combined. All of his
birdies Saturday came from
inside 10 feet. His 113-yard
wedge to within a foot of the pin
at the par-4 14th gave him the
outright lead.
I was just hitting smart golf
shots, he said. I was starting
to think my way around the
course instead of just get up to a
tee and the fairways are 40 yards
wide and the rough is not that
penal and just try to hit it as
hard as I can. Thats not how
you play golf.
Stallings had missed the cut
in seven of 13 previous events
since a third-place finish in the
Transitions Championship.
Starting the day two strokes
out of the lead, Stallings made
four birdies. He missed a 34-
footer for eagle at the par-5 17th
that would have tied him with
Kim, then missed a 13-footer at
No. 18.
Stallings has gone 42 straight
holes without a bogey and will
be in his first final pairing.
Its my rookie year, Stallings
said. Im three-fourths of the
way through. Im sitting here
just kind of pinching myself
every single day to have the
opportunity to play out here.
The Old White TPC under-
went a makeover after Stuart
Appleby shot 59 in last years
final round to beat Jeff Overton
by a stroke at 22 under. The talk
all week had been about how the
courses lengthened tees and
reseeded, firm greens would
make low scores impossible.
Jimmy Walker, who advanced
to weekend play on the cut line,
and Kim changed all that.
Walker posted a career-best
round 62 and also matched
Kims birdie total.
Youve got nothing to lose
when youre at the back of the
pack, Walker said. I told my
wife last night, lets go out and
attack, see what happens. It
worked.
Those low scores were aided
by the courses setup. Some tees
were moved up and many pin
placements were favorable com-
pared to Friday, when Phil Mick-
elson called the course brutally
difficult.
The fields scoring average of
69.3 strokes was two better than
Friday.
The greens felt a lot softer
today, Walker said. You could
see they were receptive right off
the bat.
Walker was three strokes out
of the lead along with Bill Haas
(65) and Chris Couch (67).
Second-round co-leader Bren-
don de Jonge made two bogeys
and a double-bogey on his first
seven holes, shot 72 and fell into
a group of seven golfers five
shots back.
First-round leader Trevor
Immelman, seeking his first win
since the 2008 Masters, went 23
holes without a bogey before a
double bogey on the par-4 13th.
He made four bogeys and a
birdie after that, shot 73 and
trailed by seven strokes.
Masson leads
Womens British Open
CARNOUSTIE, Scotland
Caroline Masson of Germany
shot a 4-under 68 to double her
lead to two strokes after the
third round at the Womens
British Open on Saturday.
The 22-year-old Masson made
three birdies in the front nine
and three on the back to hold off
a late charge from Yani Tseng.
The top-ranked Taiwenese play-
er closed within a shot at one
stage after picking up five
strokes in as many holes, in-
cluding an eagle.
I was quite nervous at the
start, said Masson, who has
totaled 15-under 201. I hit a
poor tee shot at the first and
then three-putted from 40 feet,
but I settled down with a birdie
at the next when I hit my 5-iron
to 7 feet and holed it.
I hit some really good shot
out there today and really en-
joyed it. The wind was a bit
stronger and there were some
tough pin positions.
Masson birdied No. 5 with a
lay-up to 10 feet and the long
No. 6 with an approach to 30
feet and two putts. At No. 11,
she holed from 7 feet, then got
up and down from a greenside
bunker at the long 14th for an-
other birdie.
Her last was at No. 17 but she
dropped a shot at the next after
hitting into another greenside
bunker.

THE HAR-
DEST TIME
FOR Julian Paksi
comes duringthe
day, when hes
working. Mow-
ing lawns gives
you too much
time to think, too much time to
worry about a future thats sudden-
ly very uncertain.
Its at night when hes lifting
weights and running that his head
begins to clear. Then theres a goal,
and some newtotals to jot down in
the journal that helps him prepare
forthelast football seasonof hislife.
Hegets comfort fromtheroutine
because hes been doing it most of
his life. Talent wasnt going to get
him anywhere, so he became the
classic overachiever.
Football has always been my
life, Paksi said. I dont knowwhat
my life would be like without it.
His plan had always been to an-
chor the defensive line this season
for tiny Albion College in one final
year of glory on the field. But life
isnt just about football anymore.
Paksi foundout just after thefirst
of the year that he has a cancer so
rare it took doctors weeks to figure
out what was wrong with him.
Withnoknowncure, theonlytreat-
ment is to get a newliver.
If there is any good news its that
the cancer is slow growing and so
far hasnt spread beyond the liver.
Paksi was scheduledto have anoth-
er MRI on Saturday just to make
sure.
His name should be on a liver
transplant waiting list by now, but
its not. Paksi will take his chances
for afewmoremonths, determined
not tolet cancer robhimof aseason
that means so much.
To Paksi its simple. Hes a foot-
ball player.
Im getting so excited for the
season, he said. I dont want tobe
down, I want to be up high.
Paksi didnt have to look far for
inspirationwhenhe was diagnosed
with Epithelioid hemangioendoth-
elioma, a cancer diagnosed in only
a few hundred people each year in
the United States. The day he
found out he went to a Relay for
Life cancer meeting on campus,
where he met a woman who was a
liver cancer survivor.
Not long after he learned about
Mark Herzlich, the Boston College
linebacker who missed a season to
bone cancer and is now trying to
maketheNewYorkGiants as aroo-
kiefreeagent. Hes got anarticleon
Herzlichs battle pasted in his jour-
nal, and he reads it during times
that hes down.
I wroteabout Herzlichafewdays
ago, whichishowPaksi andI ended
up connecting on the phone. His
girlfriend, Samantha Cornish,
wrote to let me know how impor-
tant Herzlichs fight was to Paksi.
Their storiesaresimilar, their de-
termination much the same. Both
lovethegamesomuchthat theyre-
fuse to let cancer take it away.
But whileHerzlichwas astar at a
big school, a prospect so good that
hewas onceconsideredalocktobe
pickedinthe first roundof the NFL
draft, Paksi plays Division III foot-
ball for a school of just 1,650 in
south-central Michigan.
The21-year-oldpayshisownway
just like the other players at Albion.
Hes undersized at 5-foot-11, 240
pounds andheunderstandsthereis
no career on the field once his se-
nior season is over.
He has only one year left to play.
The newliver will have to wait.
It brings me downsometimes. I
start thinkingthat Imhealthy, Ima
healthy kidandwhat didI dotode-
serve this, Paksi said. But this
summer Ive been focusing and try-
ing not to think about it. Imtrying
to live my life like it was before I
knewabout it.
Paksi hasnt told many people
about his condition. His fraternity
brothers know, and so do a few
teammates.
And, of course, his coach.
Springwasthetimehegot most
worried because he wasnt sure if
hewouldhavethetransplant before
the season, Albion coach Craig
Rundle said. Hes handled it a lot
better than I would have. Hes ac-
cepted what it is and has a positive
attitude.
Rundle said Paksi is the kind of
player whoalways hadtoworkhar-
der than the next player to win a
spot onthefield. Heblossomedlast
year at Albion, making eight tack-
les one week in a win over Olivet,
and is the only returning starter on
the defensive line.
Hes a throwback player, Run-
dle said. Hes a real humble guy,
never worries about himself, just
about the team. Hes probably
thought more about the team
through all this than he has about
himself.
Indeed, the team was on Paksis
mindwhenwetalkedonthephone.
With practice less than two weeks
away, the excitement was building
to see if a summer spent mowing
lawns and lifting weights would
pay off in one big final season.
TheBritons, whohavebeenplay-
ingfootball since1888, finishedsec-
ond the last two seasons in the Mi-
chigan Intercollegiate Athletic As-
sociation conference. This year,
Paksi figures they have a chance to
upset conference powerhouse
Trine University and win the title.
Paksi knows all the dates. The
opener is Sept. 3 at Butler, and the
last game is home Nov. 12 at Spran-
kle-Sprandel Stadiumon the north
bank of the Kalamazoo River
against Trine.
One last date is Nov. 21. Thats
when he has an appointment for
some final tests before his name
goes on the transplant list.
Football will beover then. Ahead
will be months of waiting for a new
liver, months of worrying about
what might go wrong.
Its my life, not just my football
life, andthats what makes it sucha
bummer, Paksi said. I mean, Im
only 21 and I havent even gradu-
ated college.
The only comfort for Paksi is
hell havehis final season. Hell play
football one last time.
Hes not about to let cancer take
that away.
Man to play final season of football,
THEN worry about cancerous liver
OPINION
T I M D A H L B E R G
SHANGHAI Michael Phelps easily won the
100-meter butterfly, then ceded the spotlight to
Missy Franklin, swimmings newest breakout
star who made a splash on her final night at the
world championships.
Without Milorad Cavic pushing him, Phelps
scowled upon seeing his time of 50.71 seconds
Saturday night. Too slow for his liking, it was
still good enough to earn him a second individu-
al gold medal and his sixth overall with one day
remaining in the meet.
Franklin won two more golds to leave the
worlds with five medals overall three gold, a
silver and a bronze. As he watched her, Phelps
recalled his first world meet in 2001 as a 15-year-
old who set a world record.
I kind of remember myself being like that, full
of energy all the time, he said. Shes just happy,
just enjoying everything, shes never tired, shes
always swimming fast. Shes really been able to
come on the scene strong. Ive said this all along,
shes a stud.
With a nickname to match Missile Missy,
bestowed by her father four years ago.
The 16-year-old phenom has energized the en-
tire U.S. team and coaching staff with her bubbly
personality, wide smile revealing a mouth full of
braces, and impressive maturity.
Shes genuinely happy and excited to race,
more so than any swimmer on this team, U.S.
womens co-captain Natalie Coughlin said. Its
unbelievably refreshing to have her energy on the
team.
Franklin led all the way to win the 200 back-
stroke, then anchored the U.S. women to victory
in the 400 medley relay. She accomplished so
much at these worlds that her coach Todd
Schmitz had to shave off his goatee as payback.
Ive never been this happy in my entire life. It
has been such an incredible meet, Franklin said.
I couldnt ask for anything better.
Listening to her, Coughlin laughed and said,
See what I mean? So excited to be here.
Franklin set two American records, winning
the 200 back in 2 minutes, 5.10 seconds third
fastest ever and the medley relay in 3:52.36,
along with Coughlin, Rebecca Soni and Dana
Vollmer.
The teenager from Centennial, Colo., an-
chored the Americans victory in the 4x200 frees-
tyle relay on Thursday, when she swam faster
than Italys Federica Pellegrini did in winning the
individual 200 free.
Franklin finished nearly a second in front of
200 back silver medalist Belinda Hocking of Aus-
tralia, while Sharon van Rouwendaal of the Neth-
erlands took bronze, another 2.68 seconds be-
hind.
Franklin was asked if she was the female
Phelps, a comparison that made Schmitz chafe,
but one she handled with aplomb.
Its hard to compare yourself to someone who
is just that unbelievable at what he does, Fran-
klin said. So right now Im just going to stick to
swimming my races and just being me and hav-
ing fun with it.
Phelps won the 100 fly in 50.71 seconds after
rallying from third at the turn. Konrad Czerniak
of Poland took the silver at 51.15 while another
American, Tyler McGill, earned bronze in 51.26.
Its definitely more comfortable having this
than having a hundredth win, Phelps said, re-
ferring to his victory by a hundredth of a second
over Cavic at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
Cavic, who is still regaining his form following
back surgery, didnt advance out of the prelimin-
aries.
Phelps has three golds, two silvers and a
bronze with one more event to go the 4x100
medley relay today.

BUDAPEST, Hungary Asafa Powell won the
100-meter race in 9.86 seconds at the Hungarian
Grand Prix on Saturday, the fastest run in the coun-
try.
The Jamaican was the only competitor to run
under 10 seconds in windy conditions and 68-de-
gree temperature at Ferenc Puskas Stadium, fin-
ishing ahead of Ngonidzashe Makusha of Zimbabwe
and Andrew Hinds of Barbados.
I could have gone a lot faster today but I was
working on some stuff, said Powell, whose person-
al best is 9.72.
It was cold and I was a bit cautious. It was still a
good time.
Powell will compete at the Aviva Grand Prix Dia-
mond League meet in London next weekend. Its
his last race before the world championships, which
start Aug. 27 in Daegu, South Korea.
This is my year and Ill try my best. Well see if
its enough for a gold medal (at the worlds), said
Powell, who won bronze in the 100 at the worlds in
2007 and 2009.
Veronica Campbell-Brown of Jamaica won the
womens 200 in 22.26 seconds, with Sanya Ri-
chards-Ross of the United States second in 22.63.
Blessing Okagbare of Nigeria was third.
Joel Craddock led an American sweep of the top
three spots in the 110 hurdles, winning in 13.48.
Kevin Craddock was second, followed by Jeff Por-
ter.
Kevin Borlee of Belgium took the 400 in 45.91,
followed by Hungarys Marcell Deak Nagy and Eri-
son Hurtault of France.
Double-amputee Oscar Pistorius of South Africa,
who runs on carbon-fiber blades and qualified for
the able-bodied worlds for the first time earlier this
month, was last in the 400 after finishing in 47.47.
This is a really beautiful city and the crowd was
really supportive. Im just sorry I couldnt give
them a quicker time, Pistorius said.
I hope to return one day and give them a better
race.
The tournament was the inaugural edition of the
Istvan Gyulai Memorial, commemorating the late
Secretary General of the IAAF who died in 2006. He
was a sprinter in his youth, winning 28 national
championships in Hungary.

L
ast fall I found the beginnings of
a beaver dam on a small stream
that emptied out of a vast wet-
lands.
Back then, the beavers had just
moved into the area and began to con-
struct a small mud-packed dam across
the stream. Water was beginning to
pool into the grassy swamp and I knew
the landscape was about to change if
the beavers remained.
Last week my father and I returned
to the site to see what the beavers had
created.
What we found was a different world.
The dam had now grown into an
impressive structure more than five
feet high in spots that stretched across
the stream and well into the woods on
each side. The wetlands behind the
dam sit in a bowl flanked by two gradu-
al hillsides, and the beavers had suc-
cessfully dammed the open end.
Getting into the wetlands, however,
wasnt an easy task. To do it, we used a
beat-up 10-foot jon boat and a pair of
oars. Thick grass and blueberry bushes
partially submerged in knee-deep wa-
ter encompassed the swamp. If we
wanted to see the pond that the bea-
vers created, we had to get through the
jungle-like vegetation first.
Beaver trails wound through the
vegetation, so we followed one with
the boat for 100 yards before the water-
choked vegetation gave way to an open
pond more than five feet deep about an
acre in size. Gliding out onto the new-
ly-created beaver pond in the middle of
the woods conjured up images of a
pristine wilderness yet to be discov-
ered.
Small chubs, brook trout and newts
darted away as we glided quietly out
onto the ponds surface. The calls of
bullfrogs and green frogs emanated
from the weeds and dozens of brightly
colored dragonflies buzzed overhead as
we explored every inch of the pond.
Muskrat sign was evident on floating
logs and feathers from ducks could be
seen on a large boulder that they used
to get out of the water and preen them-
selves.
These were all just some of the ex-
amples of the types of wildlife that had
already been attracted to the new bea-
ver pond.
After taking a break from the morn-
ing expedition, I returned to the pond
later to search for something else.
A beaver hut.
Upstream, above the two small
dams, there was a hut that the beavers
constructed over the winter but was
now abandoned.
I knew the beavers had to have a
newer hut somewhere, but I couldnt
find it despite exploring every corner
of the swamp.
Except one.
As I glided the boat back to the main
dam, I spied a watery trail that dis-
appeared into the tall grass away from
the pond.
The trail was too narrow for the little
jon boat, so I climbed out, pulled up
my hip boots and followed the path.
The water was two to three feet deep
in the trail, but the grass and brush
choked it down to a small corridor. I
knew the trail had to lead to some-
thing, so I hunkered down and fought
through the junglelike vegetation.
After trudging another 50 yards, the
trail curved into a flooded grove of
small maple trees. I pulled back the
limbs of blueberry bushes and stepped
inside the flooded grove to find an
enormous hut standing tall and seclud-
ed among shade of the maples.
Freshly cut sticks and damp mud
fortified this hut, which rose at least
four feet above the waters surface. It
was clear that the beavers werent
satisified with their other living quar-
ters at the other end of the swamp and
opted to build somewhere a bit more
secluded.
I stood in the flooded grove for a few
minutes, admiring the hut and appre-
ciating the new world that the beavers
had created. Its one that will continue
to change and Ill continue to explore.

Goose, dove seasons set
Early Canada goose and dove hun-
ters will be able to take to the fields of
Penns Woods on Sept. 1 as part of
Pennsylvanias 2011-12 migratory bird
seasons.
Dove hunters will have the opportu-
nity to participate in a triple-split sea-
son, which will see some shifts due to
the way the calendar falls this year.
During the first season (Sept. 1-Oct. 1),
hunting will start at noon and close at
sunset daily. The second and third
splits will be Oct. 29-Nov. 26, and Dec.
26-Jan 4, with hunting hours a half-hour
before sunrise until sunset. In all three
seasons, the daily bag limit will be 15,
and the possession limit will be 30.
The early statewide season for resi-
dent Canada geese will open Sept. 1,
and continue through Sept. 24. The
early season retains a daily bag limit of
eight Canada geese and possession
limit of 16.
As noted, young Pennsylvania hun-
ters will be provided with an extra day
of waterfowl hunting. Saturday, Sept.
17 and Saturday Sept. 24 are Youth
Waterfowl Days, which previously were
limited to one day. They are open to
those 12 to 15 years old who hold a
junior hunting license. To participate, a
youngster must be accompanied by an
adult, who may assist the youth in
calling, duck identification and other
aspects of the hunt. During this special
two-day-long hunt, youth can harvest
ducks, mergansers, coots and moor-
hens.
Youth Waterfowl Days bag limits for
ducks, mergansers and coots will be
consistent with the limit for the regular
season, which will be announced in
mid-August, after the annual Waterfowl
Symposium on Aug. 5.
Pennsylvanias woodcock season also
has been expanded an extra two weeks.
This year, woodcock season will open
Oct. 15, and continue through Nov. 26.
The daily limit remains three, and the
possession limit is six.
Migratory game bird hunters, in-
cluding those afield for doves and
woodcock, are required to obtain and
carry a Pennsylvania migratory game
bird license ($3.70 for residents, $6.70
for nonresidents), as well as a general
hunting, combination or lifetime li-
cense. All waterfowl hunters age 16 and
older also must possess a federal migra-
tory game bird and conservation
(duck) stamp.
The Pennsylvania 2011-12 Guide to
Migratory Bird Hunting brochure will
be posted on the Game Commissions
website (www.pgc.state.pa.us) in mid-
August, and the mass-produced bro-
chure should be available at U.S. Post
Offices in the state by the end of Au-
gust.
Hunters are encouraged to report
leg-banded migratory game bird recov-
eries online at www.reportband.gov, or
use the toll-free number (1-800-327-
BAND). Hunters will be requested to
provide information on where, when
and what species were taken, in addi-
tion to the band number. This informa-
tion is crucial to the successful manage-
ment of migratory game birds.
Trout Unlimited reports on drilling
Trout Unlimited (TU) supports
many of the recommendations from the
Pennsylvania Marcellus Shale Advisory
Commission for improving the com-
monwealths oversight and manage-
ment of natural gas development.
While a step in the right direction, TU
calls for additional protections neces-
sary to limit impacts of Marcellus Shale
development on fish, wildlife and water
resources.
The commission released its final
report recently to Gov. Tom Corbett.
The commissions recommendation
to increase the distance from the edge
of the well pad to a stream or water
body is an improvement over existing
regulations, said Ken Undercoffer,
president of the Pennsylvania Council

Jerry Bavitz stood near the boat
launch at Frances SlocumLake earlier
this month and watched as dozens of
kids sawed, drilled and hammered a
myriad of wooden structures.
The kids all members of the Back
Mountain Harvest Assemblys Youth
Wilderness Experience,
were helping build five
porcupine fish habitats
and nine turtle basking
platforms to be depos-
ited in the lake.
For the kids, the fact
that they were building
something to help wild-
life was reason enough
to generate enthusiasm.
For Bavitz, who is a
World War II veteran
and lifelong outdoors-
man, his enthusiasm
came fromseeing the
kids enjoy their time
outdoors while doing
something to benefit
wildlife.
Theyre doing a great
job, Bavitz said. Pro-
jects like this set them
down the right path.
For the last 11years,
Bavitz and other mem-
bers of the Nanticoke Conservation Club
along with officials fromthe Pennsylva-
nia Fish and Boat Commission (PFBC)
came out to the park for one evening
each summer to build the habitat struc-
tures for the lake. While the porcupine
structures a pyramid-shaped arrange-
ment of two-inch boards used as a shel-
ter by smaller fish, have been built and
deposited into the lake each year by the
club, last week they added something
newto the list.
The club decided to build several
turtle basking platforms this summer
based on the results of a lake assessment
by the PFBC. Mike Swartz, assistant
habitat manager for the agencys Lake
Section, said Frances SlocumLake is
loaded with shallow, marshy areas that
make it a prime place for turtles. The
only ingredient missing are trees or
floating logs, and the
basking platforms are
designed to remedy
that.
The platforms
allowthe turtles to
get up out of the
water and bask in the
sun and absorb the
heat, Swartz said. A
lake this size can
support 20 more
platforms and weve
seen as many as16
turtles at a time using
one.
The platforms are
placed in three to five
feet of water and
within100 feet of the
shore. While the kids
of the Youth Wilder-
ness Experience
never built a platform
before, they were well
aware of howimpor-
tant they are for turtles.
It helps the turtles so they can get out
in the sun and raise their body temper-
ature, and that helps themdigest their
food, said12-year-old Connor Jenkins as
he took a break fromoperating a cord-
less drill. Its hard work, but it makes me
feel good knowing Imhelping wildlife.
Ten-year-old Jena Simmons spent her
time helping to build porcupine fish
habitats. Like Jenkins, she was well-
versed on why the structures are vital to
fish.
They give protection to the small fish
so they dont have to worry about getting
eaten by the bigger fish in the lake,
Simmons said. They can be protected
and growlarger.
Joe Rutchauskas, who organized the
habitat project for the conservation club,
said both the turtle and fish structures
are built out of hemlock and should last
about 20 years. He said the club is talk-
ing about adding more rock habitats as
well.
We enjoy doing these projects each
year and its something the club looks
forward to, Rutchauskas said. You
really get a sense of satisfaction fromit
knowing that youre helping wildlife.
Gary Farber, one of the founders of the
Youth Wilderness Experience, said the
habitat project was a good way to get the
kids outdoors and away fromvideo
games.
Still, there was another benefit that
Farber didnt anticipate.
You see the guys fromthe club out
here who have been doing these things
all their lives, and then the kids who are
just getting involved working right with
them, Farber said. Theyre connected
with the club members and the Fish and
Boat Commission doing something
hands on for wildlife. Its an experience
that will stay with themfor a long time.

of TU. However, the recom-
mendation allows the Depart-
ment of Environmental Protec-
tion (DEP) to waive the distance
of these setbacks, which means
the requirement could easily be
rendered toothless. Undercoffer
continued, The distance be-
tween any major disturbance
and a stream is critical to pro-
tecting habitat for trout.
The report also recommends
that energy companies set well
pads at an even greater distance
from High Quality or Exception-
al Value streams throughout the
state The report does not specify
exactly how far that distance
should be in order to protect
these ecologically valuable
streams.
Pennsylvania has more than
15,000 miles of streams managed
for trout fishingmany of which
overlap with High Quality or
Exceptional Value streamsand
trout populations are at risk as
drilling permits continue to be
issued in close proximity to
streams, said Katy Dunlap, TUs
Eastern Water Project Director.
Its critical that the legislature
pick up where the commission
left off and pass legislation re-
quiring setbacks that adequately
protect these valuable ecological
and economic resources.
TU applauds the commissions
recommendation to restore the
role played by Pennsylvanias
county conservation districts in
inspecting erosion and sediment
control plans at Marcellus Shale
well pad sites. County conserva-
tion districts have soil and water
management expertise and are
based in the region where drill-
ing occurs. The conservation
districts know the territory and
the local environment and are
thus well positioned to inspect a
sites erosion control practices.
The report also recommends
that the DEP be given the expli-
cit authority to require a water
management plan, which allows
the agency to issue a permit for
a water withdrawal to a gas
company. TU supports consis-
tent statewide regulation of
water withdrawals for the gas
industry and other large water
users across the state.
The commissions recom-
mendation to limit gas lease
agreements on state forest lands
to those that result in no or
minimal surface disturbance
does not go far enough toward
protecting these areas, said
Dunlap. With one-third of Penn-
sylvanias forests already leased,
a full cumulative impact study
should be conducted by the
Department of Conservation and
Natural Resources (DCNR)
before considering leasing addi-
tional state forest landsthe
places where Pennsylvanians
fish and hunt.
The commissions recom-
mendations represent the points
of agreement among agencies,
industry and conservation orga-
nizations. It is imperative that
Pennsylvania decision-makers do
not let pass this rare opportunity
to strengthen the states over-
sight of gas development. TU
calls on the Pennsylvania Gener-
al Assembly to move swiftly to
adopt legislation this fall that
gives the DEP and other state
agencies the appropriate author-
ity and resources to adequately
regulate the impacts of Marcel-
lus Shale development on rivers,
streams, forests, fish and wild-
life.

Looking back
later this
autumn, chances
are this may be
declared the
nicest weekend
of the summer
weather-wise.
Skies will remain
mostly sunny
today with high
pressure allow-
ing a westerly
owof warm, if
not hot air to the
region. What has
been left out of
the equation is
the humidity,
which will
remain comfort-
ably low through
tonight. A few
storms may pop
up later tomor-
row afternoon
and evening as a
weak cold front
presses toward
the region, but
many areas will
remain dry.
Temperatures
will hold on to
the upper 80s
right into the
new week with
only spotty
chances for
showers both
Monday and
Wednesday.
Enjoy what's left
of this wonderful
summer week-
end!

NATIONAL FORECAST: High pressure will provide sunshine and pleasant conditions from the Ohio
Valley into much of the Northeast today. Behind the high, a frontal boundary will trigger a few show-
ers and thunderstorms over the western Great Lakes. Meanwhile, a moist and unstable air mass will
remain in place, fueling thunderstorms over the Southeast.

STUDENTSPREPAR-
INGto go to college
this fall might be preoc-
cupiedwithchoosing a
computer or shopping
for sheets that fit a
dormitory bed.
Oftenless attention
goes into selecting college student loans.
The decisiongets shuntedaside or made
inaninstant because tuitionis due, loans
have confusing names andthe financial
aidoffice at your college may provide
little guidance. Many students assume all
loans are similar a mistake that can
inflict thousands of dollars inunneces-
sary debt.
Evenif your financial aidoffice isnt
particularly helpful, youcanidentify the
best loans yourself.
Start witha telephone call to your
college financial aidoffice director, and
take the initiative by asking whether you
might still qualify for any grants or schol-
arships that youhave not yet requested. If
youcome froma modest-income family,
ask about Pell Grants, whichcanprovide
up to $5,500 inmoney that does not have
to be repaid. Thenask if youcantap any
state grants inyour home state or the
state where youare attending school.
Also try calling your state governments
department of education.
After tapping as muchfree money as
possible, your next step is to choose
student loans. Youwant to turnfirst to
loans fromthe federal government rather
thanprivate loans that come froma bank
or nongovernment lender. Again, you
shouldbe directedto federal loanapplica-
tions by your college financial aidoffice.
Youcanget additional informationat
students.gov.
The paperwork fromyour financial aid
office will probably give youa choice
betweensubsidizedor unsubsidized
Staffordloans. If youqualify, take the
subsidizedStaffordloans, whichcarry a
$19,000 limit for four years of undergrad-
uate studies. Subsidizedmeans the gov-
ernment reduces your costs by absorbing
interest during in-school deferment and
provides a very lowinterest rate, of 3.4
percent, for loans originatedduring the
2011-12 academic year.
Thats a lot better thanthe 6.8 percent
onthe regular Staffordloan. Also, be-
cause interest onanunsubsidizedloan
accumulates while youare inschool, your
balance wouldbe about 16 percent higher
comparedwitha subsidizedloan, said
Mark Kantrowitz, publisher of FinAid.
Keep inmindthat for 2012-13, the sub-
sidized-loanrate increases to matchthe
rate for anunsubsidizedloan.
Typically, if your familys income is no
higher than$50,000 youwill be ina good
positionto qualify for a subsidizedloan.
More than$100,000 makes it unlikely but
not impossible. Factors like having retired
parents or multiple siblings incollege will
affect eligibility. Cost of the college also
canmake a difference, Kantrowitz said.
If youcant get a subsidizedloan,
choose the regular Staffordloan. Also, ask
your college financial aidoffice if youcan
get a Perkins loan. These are federal loans
witha 5 percent interest rate, andthey go
to students who have lower incomes than
most students at a particular college. So if
youcome froma middle-income family,
but attenda college that attracts affluent
students, youmight qualify for a Perkins
loanat that college, eventhoughyou
wouldnt at a community college with
many low-income students.
If youare like many students, you
might findthat the federal loans youare
offeredare not adequate to cover all your
costs. Inthat case, your parents canbor-
rowadditional money using what are
calledPLUSloans. The interest rate is set
at 7.9 percent.
Another alternative: private loans. But
beware. Althoughfederal loans all have
fixedrates, that will never increase dur-
ing the10 years youpay themoff, thats
not the case withmany private student
loans. They might have a starter interest
rate that looks attractive, but witha varia-
ble rate that canincrease continually over
10 years. So the rate might climb well
past the 7.9 percent onparent PLUS
loans.

The cost of prescription
medicines used by millions of
people every day is about to
plummet.
The next 14 months will
bring generic versions of seven
of the worlds 20 best-selling
drugs, including the top two:
cholesterol fighter Lipitor and
blood thinner Plavix.
The magnitude of this wave
of expiring drugs patents is un-
precedented. Between now
and 2016, blockbusters with
about $255 billion in global an-
nual sales will go off patent,
notes EvaluatePharma Ltd., a
London research firm. Generic
competition will decimate
sales of the brand-name drugs
and slash the cost to patients
and companies that provide
health benefits.
Top drugs getting generic
competition by September
2012 are taken by millions ev-
ery day: Lipitor alone is taken
by about 4.3 million Americans
and Plavix by 1.4 million. Ge-
neric versions of big-selling
drugs for blood pressure, asth-
ma, diabetes, depression, high
triglycerides, HIV and bipolar
disorder also are coming by
then.
The flood of generics will
continue for the next decade or
so, as about 120 brand-name
prescription drugs lose market
exclusivity, according to pre-
scription benefits manager
Medco Health Solutions Inc.
My estimation is at least 15
percent of the population is
currently using one of the
drugs whose patents will ex-
pire in 2011 or 2012, says Joel
Owerbach, chief pharmacy offi-
cer for Excellus Blue Cross
Blue Shield, which serves most
of upstate New York.
Those patients, along with
businesses and taxpayers who
help pay for prescription drugs
through corporate and govern-
ment prescriptionplans, collec-
tively will save a fortune. Thats
Drug prices expected to plummet

SallySmithbecameCEOof Buf-
faloWildWingsInc. aftertheother
guy didnt showup.
It was 1996
and Smith was
the top finance
officer for the
chicken wings
chain, whichwas
still relatively
small, withabout
70restaurants.
The founders, friends Jim Dis-
brow and Scott Lowery, had
opened the first Buffalo Wild
Wings 14 years earlier, after mov-
ing to Columbus, Ohio, from Buf-
falo, N.Y. Unable to find Buffalo-
style chicken wings in their new
town, theyd opened Buffalo Wild
Wings &Weck, cooking sauces in
their apartment kitchen and play-
ing MTV in the restaurant to at-
tract OhioState college students.
But the pair knew they needed
help taking the business froma la-
borof lovetoaprofessionallyman-
aged corporation, especially be-
cause Disbrow, by then CEO, was
about to leave to run the U.S. Fig-
ure Skating Association. They
chose the operations vice presi-
dent of another restaurant as their
newchief exec. But hedidnt show
uponhis scheduledfirst day.
The board members huddled,
then told Smith a few days later
that they wanted her to be CEO.
She doesnt really remember
agreeingtotakethejob; it was just
assumedthat she would.
She got the books in order,
shookupthesupplychainandadd-
ed marketing, human resources
and finance departments. She set
out todiversifythecustomer base,
and she dropped Weck fromthe
end of the name (a weck is a cara-
way roll popular in Buffalo). In
2003, she took the company pub-
lic.
The chain has since grown to
about 750 restaurants, including
oneinOntariothatopenedinMay,
marking Buffalo Wild Wings first
international expansion. Now,
Smith is eyeing London. Unlike
many competitors, the Minneapo-
lis-based chain has weathered the
recession well. Its revenue rose14
percent last year, when U.S. reve-
nue fell at Applebees, Chilis and
Ruby Tuesday, according to Tech-
nomic, a restaurant industry re-
searchfirm.
Smith, 53, talkedtoThe Associ-
ated Press about when to get the
biggest chicken wings, what she
looks for in job applicants and
whats worrying the restaurant in-
dustry.
Q. What was Buffalo Wild
Wings like when you first got
there?

erything came through it. They

chisees. We had about 14 trucks,
and it was not efficient. If we were
going to open a restaurant in Tex-
as, you ended up having a truck
that had to go from Columbus to
Texas.
Q. How did you reshape the
brand?
A. The restaurants were really
college bars. And theres nothing
wrong with college bars, but you
probably werent going to raise
money. We started delivering the

Q. Doyoueverhearpeoplecom-
plaintheir wingsaregettingsmall-
er?
A. Inthesummer, wings tendto
be smaller because chickens dont
eat as much. In the winter, theyre
eating more. You also have
Thanksgiving and Christmas,
timeswhentheplantsaretypically
closed. So chickens the next week
have muchbigger wings.
Q. Yourechairwomanof theNa-
tional Restaurant Association.
What are restaurants worried
about right now?
A. Whats going to happen with
thehealthcarebill (whichrequires
most businesses to offer health in-
surance to any employee who
works an average of at least 30
hours a week). The industry em-
ploys alot of part-timepeoplewho

LOS ANGELES Wind tur-
bines are getting really big
some with blades as long as a
football fieldandmorepower-
ful, often generating 50 times
more electricity than the first
generation of wind power ma-
chines built in the 1980s.
But scientists are also study-
ing how to harness the wind in
different ways that could help al-
lay concerns that todays tur-
bines are unattractive, noisy and
sometimes even dangerous.
Already in the works: Tur-
bines that float and turbines that
fly. Turbines without blades and
turbines with blades fat enough
to fit a double-decker bus inside.
They wont just be on hillsides
either. Somewill beintheocean,
while others will be on rooftops
and light poles. A few will even
be in the sky.
One design was inspired by
the humble bumblebee.
Sabri Sansoy, an MIT gradu-
ate and former rocket engineer,
has built a 19-foot-tall prototype
whoseblades, rather thanspinin
a circle, move in a figure-eight
motion like the insects wings.
Sansoy hopes the design will
generate more electricity than
turbines of similar size.
Ive been called everything
from brilliant to a nincompoop
over this, said Sansoy, whose
Marina del Rey, Calif., company
Green Wavelength is looking to
commercialize the technology.
But theres a lot of people in-
terestedinthis kindof thing, tak-
ing energy out of the wind, he
said.
Thats because theres a lot of
moneybeingpouredintofinding
ways to ease off coal-based elec-
tricity. Last year, the Depart-
ment of Energy set aside a re-
cord $79 million for its wind pro-
gram budget nearly $20 mil-
lion more than its previous top
allotment in 1980.
General Electric Co., which
makes half of the turbines in the
U.S., has investedmorethan$1.5
billion developing renewable en-
ergy technology since entering
the wind business in 2002. Goo-
gle Inc., the Internet search gi-
ant, and its philanthropic arm
have plunged millions of dollars
into new wind concepts.
At the moment, most turbines
are designed to look like stream-
linedwindmills: Blades connect-
ed to a rotor, usually mounted
high on a tower to capture stron-
ger gusts, spin like propellers in
the wind. The rotor helps turn a
shaft connected to a generator,
which produces electricity.
But companies are coming up
with innovative variations.

because generic drugs typically
cost 20 percent to 80 percent less
than the brand names.
Doctors hope the lower prices
will significantly reduce the num-
ber of people jeopardizing their
health because they cant afford
medicines they need.
Evenpeople withprivate insur-
ance or Medicare arent filling all
their prescriptions, studies show,
particularlyfor cancer drugs with
copays of hundreds of dollars or
more.
The new generics will slice co-
payments of those with insur-
ance. For the uninsured, who
have been paying full price, the
savings will be much bigger.
Daly Powers, 25, an uninsured
student who works two part-time
jobs at low wages, says he often
cant afford the $220 a month for
his depression and attention def-
icit disorder pills. He couldnt
buy either drug in June and says
hes struggling with his Spanish
class and his emotions. He looks
forward to his antidepressant,
Lexapro, goinggeneric earlynext
year.
Itd make all the difference in
the world, says Powers, of
Bryan, Texas.
Generic medicines are chem-
ically equivalent to the original
brand-name drugs and work just
as well for nearly all patients.
When a drug loses patent pro-
tection, often only one generic
version is on sale for the first six
months, so the price falls a little
bit initially. Then, several other
generic makers typically jump in,
driving prices down dramatical-
ly.
Last year, the average generic
prescription cost $72, versus
$198 for the average brand-name
drug, according to consulting
firm Wolters Kluwer Pharma So-
lutions. Those figures average all
prescriptions, fromshort-termto
90-day ones.
Average copayments last year
were $6 for generics, compared
with $24 for brand-name drugs
given preferred status by an in-
surer and $35 for nonpreferred
brands, according to IMS Health.
Among the drugs that recently
went off patent, Protonix, for se-
vere heartburn, now costs just
$16 a month for the generic, ver-
sus about $170 for the brand
name. And of the top sellers that
soon will have competition, Lip-
itor retails for about $150 a
month, Plavix costs almost $200
a month and blood pressure drug
Diovancosts about $125amonth.
For those with drug coverage,
their out-of-pocket costs for each
of those drugs could drop below
$10 a month.
Many discount retailers and
grocery chains sell the most pop-
ular generics for $5 a month or
less to draw in shoppers.
Theimpact of thecomingwave
of generics will be widespread
and swift.
Insurers usesystems that make
sure patients are switchedtoa ge-
neric the first day its available.
Many health plans require newly
diagnosed patients to start on ge-
neric medicines. And unless the
doctor writes brand only on a
prescription, if theres a generic
available, thats almost always
what the pharmacist dispenses.
A blockbuster drug that goes
off patent will lose 90 percent of
its revenue within 24 months.
Ive seen it happen in12 months,
says Ben Weintraub, a research
director at Wolters Kluwer Phar-
ma Solutions.
Drug companies have received
U.S. approval for 20 drugs this
year and expect approval for oth-
er important ones the next few
years. Eventually, those will help
fill the revenue hole.
For now, brand-name drug-
makers are scrambling to adjust
for the billions in revenue that
will soon be lost. Typically, they
raise prices 20 percent or more in
the final years before generics hit
to maximize revenue. Some also
contract with generic drugmak-
ers for authorized generics,
which give the brand-name com-
pany a portion of the generic
sales.

What she heard and saw from
the companys employees seemed
like a perfect fit, said Brewster,

I was very impressed with the
production facility and the way
theydothings, shesaidabout her
first visit to the facility last year.
This was a slice of America.
Thats how I felt and thats what I
was lookingfor.
She said she wanted to support
the planet by using recycled prod-
ucts, support the dance communi-
ty by creating comfortable and
fashionable items and she wanted
to support her country by having
her goods made domestically.
To date shes ordered close to
1,000 garments, including leo-

Thats in addition to100 tote bags

of that is still relatively tiny.
But it creates anopportunityfor
growth, which bank bags havent

There are only so many banks,
Lantz said, but optimistically add-
ing, we are still far away frombe-
ing cashless and paperless. But
with more people like Brewster,
the reliance on bags could dwin-
dle.
We have to adapt, said Lantz,
becausewedont want tobecome
just a distributor.
He said the purchase of new
equipment to handle the apparel
business is worth the investment
long-term but we havent made
money onthat side yet.
Brewster hopes to change that,
because if she places more orders
with Rifkin, it means her business
is takingoff.

In a slow economy, small busi-
ness owners know what to do:
adapt.
We have to constantly keep
adjusting, says Janice Cutler,
president of North Raleigh Flo-
rist in North Carolina. She has
changed her marketing strategy
since the start of the recession in
late 2007. That has kept people
buying even though flowers
arent always a high priority.
At Graphic Imagery, a printing
company in South San Francisco,
owner Rachel Imison and her
husband are working harder for
eachsale. Andtheyve investedin
new equipment that gets the
work done better.
Heres a look at howfour small
business owners have adapted to
an economy that keeps limping
along:
Cutler says her floral busi-
ness has done well despite the re-
cession because people still need
flowers for holidays, special occa-
sions and big events like wed-
dings. But the economy has defi-
nitely affected us in that we
would be doing better, if some
customers werent cutting back
on regular purchases, she says.
For example, consumers and
companies that used to order
flowers regularly as decorations.
Her answer to the recession
was to market her flowers differ-
ently. We do more than just sell
flowers. Its a sentiment, she
says. The strategy has beenwork-
ing. Cutler says, weve honestly
had double-digit growth every
month.
At Graphic Imagery, we are
working longer hours, customers
are demanding more for less, the
average value of each sale is low-
er, Imison says. But she under-
stands that her customers are un-
der as much pressure as her com-
pany is.
To meet customers greater de-
mands, Graphic Imagery invest-
ed$500,000 inequipment that al-
lows it to print more efficiently
and cheaply. Its able to make
booklets and brochures faster
sometimes in as little as a day.
The company is also trying to
keep its costs down. Its putting
off hiring because, while busi-
ness has been good, were not
confident yet, Imison says. Her
family is putting off its vacation
this year, something it also did
during the recession. Were still
anxious, Imison says.
Alan Gaynor & Co., a New
York-based architectural firm,
was primarily doing interior de-
sign work for companies before
the recession. That meant rede-
signing lobbies, offices and other
spaces. That type of business be-
gan to slow at the start of 2008.
But the firmstarted getting more
projects to renovate building in-
frastructure.
We realized that was a good
market for us, says Michele Bod-
dewyn, the firms president. She
says that after thecollapseof Leh-
man Brothers in September
2008, the market for corporate in-
terior design was very dead.
The interior design market has
recovered somewhat, but pro-
jects are smaller. Boddewyn says
of clients, if they have a wish list
of 10 things, maybe theyre hit-
ting seven of those 10.
Brian Butlers dry cleaning
business in Columbus, Ohio, ca-
ters to affluent customers. He
says Dublin Cleaners held on to
them by giving them superior
service. Like Graphic Imagery,
his company invested in new
equipment and technology that
improved the quality of its work
and also made it easier to satisfy
customers needs.
Dublin had its best sales in
2007. Business fell in 2008
through 2010, but Butler says
sales were downonly2percent to
4 percent each year. That was be-
low the industry average of 10
percent. He says the company is
back up near its 2007 level.
SMALL TALK
Businesses find ways to
adapt in slow economy
By JOYCE M. ROSENBERG
AP Business Writer
Q: The woman whose desk is
next to mine spends hours on
Facebook and even refers to her-
self as an online stalker. She is
pals with our network adminis-
trator, who supposedly likes to
read every email that comes into
the company.
I recently figured out that
these two have been reading my
personal email whenever I ac-
cess my account at work. Even
more alarming, they apparently
tried to log in to my online bank-
ing. Because they exceeded the
allowed number of password at-
tempts, I was locked out of the
account when I got home.
To prevent this prying, I have
stopped checking my personal
email at work. This frustrates my
co-worker, who now tries to
make me log on by saying that
she sent me a picture or joke.
When I reply that Ill read it at
home, she gets really annoyed.
What else can I do about this?
A: If the cyber-snoopers are
this eager to invade your privacy,
then they are undoubtedly doing
the same to other unsuspecting
employees. Therefore, in addi-
tion to protecting yourself, you
might also take steps to protect
your colleagues.
Giventhe serious nature of the
offense, talking to someone in
management or human re-
sources would seemto be the ap-
propriate next step. If you know
of others who have been victi-
mized, they can also attend and
help present the case.
For example: We thought you
shouldknowthat some people in
the company have been reading
their co-workers personal email
online and have even tried to get
into their bank accounts. Were
asking you to investigate the sit-
uationandput a stoptothis inap-
propriate behavior.
You can then provide whatev-
er proof you have of these intru-
sions. If management fails to
take immediate action, informal-
lyspreadthewordthat accessing
personal accounts at work can
make them vulnerable to view-
ing by others.
Q: After two days at my new
job, I have not yet signed a pay-
roll form or been told about my
work hours. This is a small fam-
ily business that has been quite
successful, but seems very disor-
ganized. I have made two ap-
pointments with the owners to
discuss my schedule, but they
forgot both times. Is this a bad
sign?
A: While this confusion may
be disturbing, it is not unusual.
Many successful small compa-
nies expand so quickly that their
processes and procedures cant
keep up with the growth. To
compound this problem, the
founders are often entrepreneu-
rial types who are not the most
organized people in the world.
Whether this is a bad omen or
an excellent opportunity de-
pends largely on the nature of
your position. If you have an ad-
ministrative job, you may have
actually been hired to help bring
order out of this chaos. In that
case, your organizational skills
will soon make you indispens-
able. On the other hand, if your
work leaves you at the mercy of
these muddled managers, you
may soon need a crash course in
stress reduction.

Email snooping crosses the line, invades personal life

Makani Power Inc., is develop-
ing a kite-like contraption that
generates electricity as it whips
in circles in the wind. Another
firm, Magenn Power Inc., has
built a giant spinning blimp with
generators affixed to each end. It
somewhat resembles a giant in-
flatable hamster wheel.
Some machines could double
as art installations. Poway, Calif.-
basedHelixWindCorp.s turbine
looks like a spiral staircase wrap-
ped in a white sheet. Another
model, from WindTronics,
evokes a large bicycle wheel
or Saurons eye from The Lord
of the Rings.
Although many current instal-
lations are limited to sites with
just the right mix of topography
and wind speed, designers are
starting to create turbines that
can adapt to a wide range of ter-
rains.
One Italian proposal involves
wind turbines being built be-
tweenthe pillars of a bridge. Last
month, turbine manufacturer
Vestas said it adapted military
stealth technology that can keep
turbines from interfering with
airport and army radar systems,
potentiallyopeningupnewsites.
The popularity of rooftop so-
lar panels has sparked a surge of
smaller wind turbines that can
sit atopbuildings. Municipalities
aroundthe country are gradually
updating zoning rules to allow
for the more compact models.
Technology like the not-quite-6-
foot-tall Eddy from Urban Green
Energy Inc. has popped up at
trade shows in China and the
Consumer Electronics Show in
Las Vegas.
Turbines could also end up in
the oceans as developers try to
tap powerful sea breezes. Re-
searchers say those machines
couldgenerate many times more
power than land-based ones.
In March, Vestas announced a
7-megawatt offshore turbine that
will be more than 600 feet tall
from the blade tip to the bottom
of the tower. The blades will
sweep in a circle larger than the
London Eye Ferris wheel.
The monstrous machines, to
be made mostly with recyclable
materials, will be mass produced
by 2015, Vestas said.
One turbine inGermany spans
nearly 700 feet from the bottom
of the tower tothe blade tip. Oth-
er developers saythat land-based
turbines with 300-foot blades
may be ready within a decade.
But some said scaling up isnt
always the way to go.
The wind industrys central
tenet now is that bigger is bet-
ter, said John O. Dabiri, an aero-
nautics professor who runs Cal-
techs Center for Bioinspired En-
gineering. It certainly goes
against conventional wisdom,
but were taking the opposite
perspective.
But some of the newfangled
models may not go far, said Nan-
cy Rader, executive director of
the California Wind Energy As-
sociation. The technology with
the most longevity probably will
be variations of current turbines,
she said.
In 20 years, I think its going
tobemoreof thesame, shesaid.

TOO ROSY
Remember when the U.S. government said in 2001
that the country could have a total budget surplus of
$5.6 trillion over the next 10 years? It was off by about
$11.8 trillion. One reason for the miss was that the
governments forecasts for future growth were too op-
timistic, says research from Harvard University. And
investors should be skeptical not only about U.S.
numbers but other countries as well. After looking at
official forecasts for growth and budget balances by
33 countries, Professor Jeffrey Frankel found that
they were often too rosy. They also tended to be even
more biased during economic booms. One exception
was Chile, which tended to be too pessimistic.
SHOW ME THE SALES
One of the best surprises this
earnings season is how
strong revenue growth has
been. Total revenue is up 9.9
percent from a year earlier for
the S&P 500 companies that
reported their second-quarter
results through Thursday. If
they keep up the pace, it
would be the best revenue
growth in a year. It could also
mean that companies are
moving into the second phase
of earnings growth, say
Deutsche Bank strategists: If
companies can depend on
stronger revenue to raise their
profits, theyll focus less on
cutting jobs and other costs.
NOT EVERYONES STRUGGLING
Governments around the world are get-
ting financially weaker, which means
credit-rating agencies are busy cutting
their ratings. Greece is already in junk
status, and agencies warn that the U.S.
may lose its top rating. Then theres
Uruguay. Standard & Poors upped the
South American countrys rating to BB+
last week. That means its just one level
away from graduating to investment
grade from junk status. S&P cited
Uruguays prudent and consistent eco-
nomic policies. Compare that with how
S&P described the U.S. debate on cut-
ting the deficit: entangled.

The U.S. governments fiscal trou-
bles mean bond investors should
focus more on corporate and mu-
nicipal bonds, says George Strick-
land, managing director at Thorn-
burgh Investment Management,
which has about $84 billion in as-
sets under management. He is also
co-portfolio manager of Thornburgs
Strategic Income Fund.
What will
happen if
the U.S. los-
es its top
AAA credit
rating?
In the short
run, I would
expect there
would not be
a huge effect
because in-
vestors have
virtually no-
where else to
go. If youre a
(mutual fund with a mandate to in-
vest in) U.S. government bonds,
you literally have nowhere else to
go. If youre a high-quality buyer,
you can shift some of your incre-
mental purchases to high-grade
corporates, but its a much smaller
market. Mortgages, the high-quali-
ty ones, are agency backed, which
are implicitly government backed.
Many (mutual funds) cant take
cross-currency risk and go to
(German) bunds, so really youve
got nowhere else to go
Longer term, I think that the
U.S. government and U.S. gov-
ernment bond market (has bene-
fited) greatly from being a store of
value, something thats rock solid
when nothing else is. I think were
damaging that image in a long-
term way. Weve already done it,
but a downgrade would do more
damage to our image as a store
of wealth. I think well see a con-
tinued incremental shift on the
part of both central governments
and private buyers of debt toward
other markets.
Should U.S. investors be look-
ing at foreign bonds instead?
If youre a U.S. based investor, you
should have most of your money in
U.S. bonds. For a variety of rea-
sons, U.S. corporates and U.S.
municipals are where you should
have the bulk of your assets ver-
sus U.S. Treasurys. First of all, you
get (more yield than you do with)
Treasurys, and you dont lose
sleep over the political dynamics.
Really, youre not losing any
sleep over municipals?
Im not losing any sleep. Some
people potentially are, but U.S.
municipalities have demonstrated
a lot more fiscal responsibility than
the U.S. government. Their bud-
gets are smaller than they were a
couple years ago, and their tax
revenues are growing pretty nicely.
But municipalities are at risk of
getting less federal aid.
Its definitely a concern, but mu-
nicipalities have had to tighten
their belt straps for several years
now, and I think that theyll by and
large continue to do that. There
may be some exceptions to that
rule, but by and large, I think well
see them through this crisis in
pretty good shape.
And you like corporates
because of how much cash
they have?
Corporate cash flows are very
good, and corporate balance
sheets and the absolute level of
debt both look quite good. You
have to be a little concerned about
what happens to the economy go-
ing forward. If we actually do get
fiscal tightening of lets call it $3
trillion over 10 years, thatll shave
probably 1.5 to 2 percent off of
(economic) growth, which would
make you a little concerned about
the high-yield market place.
What kind of corporate bonds
do you like?
With high-grade bonds, the
(prices) just dont offer enough to
justify it. So were more in the high
speculative grade and low invest-
ment grade. Thats probably the
sweet spot. Its kind of interesting,
because theres a lot of demand
for the juiciest bond deals, for the
highest yielding, highest risk stuff,
and theres a lot of demand for the
highest quality stuff, but investors
dont seem to be buying at the
train stops in between.

INITIAL
INVESTMENT
Funds that use a momentum strategy are relatively new. But some show big returns.
Jump on the bandwagon
Many investors look at a stock
like Priceline.com and get uneasy.
Its up 560 percent since the start of
the bull market on March 10, 2009.
After that kind of advance, theres
no way a stock can go much higher,
they say. But some fund managers
expect stocks that have shot higher
to keep on going. They use a strate-
gy known as momentum investing.
To understand how the strategy
works, think of a runaway train. The
longer it stays on the track, the
more speed it builds up. It keeps
getting faster until it hits a sharp
turn. So momentum fund managers
buy even when a stock is high
and then try to sell before it derails.
Its a strategy that tends to work
long-term, but it can also be vola-
tile. Some things to remember
about momentum investing:
DONT TRY IT AT HOME
Although it sounds simple, picking
stocks based on momentum isnt
recommended for individual inves-
tors. It means following the stocks
closely to avoid getting burned if they
fall sharply. If you want to profit from
momentum, buy a mutual fund that
uses the strategy, says John Mont-
gomery, CEO of Bridgeway Funds.
IT CAN GET EXPENSIVE
Amomentum strategy depends on
regularly switching out stocks in a
fund. Turnover the rate at which a
portfolio replaces its stocks with new
ones can be up to 150 percent for
momentum funds. Some stock funds
with different strategies have turn-
over rates as low as 22 percent. In-
vestors pay a fee every time a stock
in their fund is bought or sold. So re-
turns from a momentum fund must
be high enough to offset those costs.
ITS A SIDE DISH, NOT A
MAIN COURSE
Momentum isnt a replacement for
other strategies. Funds that use
momentum tend to work when val-
ue funds ones made up of
stocks that are cheaply priced
dont. The strategies complement
each other, Montgomery says.
How a momentum fund has
fared against a value fund.

Screener
The budget standoff over raising the U.S. borrow-
ing limit has many investors wondering whether its
safe to own stocks. The Dow Jones industrial aver-
age fell more than 500 points last week. If lawmak-
ers cant reach a deal by Tuesday, the U.S. could
default on its debt. If that happens, some analysts
predict stocks could fall as much as they did at the
height of the financial crisis. The Standard & Poors
500 index fell 32 percent in just over a month after
Lehman Brothers announced its bankruptcy.
Many investors are wondering which stocks
have the best chance of holding steady in a
worst-case scenario.
A few stocks in the S&P 500 rose last week
even though the index fell 3.5 percent. We
screened those for a measure of reliability: a
strong dividend yield. Companies with a solid divi-
dend have a steady cash flow that can cushion
them against calamity.
When we screened for S&P 500 stocks that rose
over the past week and have a dividend yield above
2 percent, we were left with only 12 companies.
Many are in industries considered safe, like energy
and technology. Above, the corporations that stayed
the course while the rest of the market lurched.

Treasury yields drop
The yield on the 10-year Treasury note fell close to
its lowest level of the year. Treasury yields drop
when their prices rise, and investors are buying Trea-
surys despite the governments warning that it may
default unless politicians allow it to borrow more.
Many investors dont believe the government will de-
fault. Lower yields pull down mortgage and other
consumer loan rates.

CONSEQUENCES,
elections have them.
The terrible spectacle
we are witnessing in
Washington over the
urgent need to raise
Americas debt ceiling
is a direct result of
congressional elections less than one
year ago.
In November, Republicans picked up
an astonishing 63 seats in the House of
Representatives. Their 179-256 minor-
ity status instantly became a 242-193
majority granting them the power to
appoint the House speaker and chairs
of every standing committee.
In April, the new Republican major-
ity passed legislation to undo Medicare
for everyone younger than 55, replac-
ing it with a coupon that senior citi-
zens would carry to insurance compa-
nies, hat in hand, and attempt to pur-
chase some health care coverage.
In July, House Republicans have the
United States, and everyones 401k, on
the brink of economic calamity. Elec-
tions have consequences.
Raising the debt ceiling the statu-
tory level necessary to pay the nations
bills authorized by law and already
incurred is a perfunctory measure.
But these are not your typical Repub-
licans being elected to Congress. Rath-
er, they are a cadre of extremists
fast approaching critical mass in the
House and Senate.
Not since 1948 has a political party
benefited by a shift of 63 seats in the
House. Last year the Senate GOP
gained six seats, increasing its number
to 49 of 100 senators. Two more Senate
seats and Republicans will have a ma-
jority in that chamber as well. Elec-
tions have serious consequences.
The new House majority selected
U.S. Rep. John Boehner, R-Ohio, to be
their speaker. Before doing so, Boehner
needed to solicit and accept support
from the dozens of far-right members
in his conference. As a result the veter-
an Boehner, certainly no ideologue,
had his hands full, if not tied.
Never was it more evident than on
Tuesday when Speaker Boehner an-
nounced his latest debt ceiling propos-
al to nowhere. Instantly he was op-
posed by members of his own party,
many led by right-wing Congressman
James Jordan, who quickly announced
that Boehner would not have the votes
to pass it. Jordans Ohio congressional
district adjoins that of his speaker.
When will thoughtful Republicans
move to take back their party?
On Wednesday, as the Dow was
dropping 198 points, a frustrated U.S.
Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., took the
Senate floor to chastise the Republican
fringe opposed to increasing Americas
debt ceiling. And the conservative Wall
Street Journal added, The idea seems
to be that if the House GOP refuses to
raise the debt ceiling, a default crisis or
gradual government shutdown will
ensue and the public will turn en
masse against Barack Obama. Then
Democrats would have no choice but
to pass a balanced budget amendment
and reform entitlements, and the tea
party hobbits could return to Middle
Earth having defeated Mordor.
McCain and the WSJ do not a trend
make, but the intentions of tea party
hobbits are known and Republicans
will have an opportunity to root them
out.
Yet none of this resolves the immedi-
ate crises facing our nation. While
more information might have become
known over the weekend, if no congres-
sional resolution is at hand, President
Obama should put an end to the global
economic uncertainty before markets
open in the morning.
The president should raise the debt
ceiling by executive order. Citing the
14th Amendment to the Constitution
the president can free the American
people, their government and all future
presidents from ever again being held
hostage to the unconstitutional debt
ceiling charade.
Amendment 14, Section 4: The
validity of the public debt of the United
States, authorized by law shall not
be questioned.

Raise ceiling
through use of
executive power
Kevin Blaums column on government, life
and politics appears every Sunday. Contact

OUR government
with its checks and
balances and need for
consensus makes for
difficult navigation,
even if you are cap-
tain of the ship.
One of the interest-
ing questions to ponder is assessing
how much power a president really
has to resolve critical issues. The rest
of us have the luxury of being out of
the line of fire while this countrys
leaders face the threat that we will
soon be out of money and unable to
pay our bills.
President Harry Truman said the
buck stops here at the presidents
desk and he was right.
Perhaps its too simplistic to view
the presidency this way, but the per-
son in the Oval Office is the ultimate
decision-maker for the government of
our country. He takes the lions share
of the blame or the credit for events
that unfold during his administration.
President Obama shoulders blame
for failing over the last few weeks to
get the consensus he needed to raise
the debt ceiling and he failed to save
the country from the maddening de-
bate over spending cuts vs. tax in-
creases.
As is often the case, the president
cant win. He made a meaningful
attempt to reach an agreement with
the Speaker of the House, Republican
John Boehner. The plan failed but it
brought Obama criticism from those
on the far left of his own party who
believed he had abandoned them and
the progressive Democratic principles
they espouse.
Republicans, meanwhile, even those
he was attempting to appease, do not
believe Obama does enough of any-
thing to help move the country for-
ward.
The internal revolt within the two
parties is almost comical. Liberals say
Obama isnt liberal enough. The tea
party folks say Boehner isnt conser-
vative enough.
At some point Obama will have to
act as if hes the CEO of the country
and support a plan his own or
someone elses. By weeks end, he
hadnt done that; he still seemed to be
waiting for someone else to solve the
problem.
The 2012 election is a long way in
the future, but the president knows
what the defining issue will be in his
campaign for re-election: the econo-
my, and by that I do not mean our
debt level or ability to borrow. The
economy, for purposes of politics, can
be measured in three words: jobs,
jobs, jobs.
The debate over the debt ceiling on
the debt is more philosophical than
real. Jobs are real. The state of the
economy is real. While the debate was
raging over the debt ceiling, news
reports were shouting more bad news:
The United States economy has
slowed considerably this year from a
year ago, said a report from the Com-
merce Department released on Friday.
The news came as Congress wran-
gled over how to put the nation on a
more sustainable fiscal path without
slowing the recovery even more, or
throwing the country back into reces-
sion.
It is unbelievable that a person runs
for president and does not realize
they have to make the tough deci-
sions and solve the problems that
split not only the political parties but
the ranks within the parties. If you
want to be the nations chief exec-
utive, you have to know that the buck
stops with you.
We have problems underlying the
debt ceiling and borrowing crisis.
They are the most serious we face.
The president must find a way to put
people back to work and enable a
recovery of our economy as a whole.
Those are the priorities. The CEO of
the country needs to lead. President
Obama should not get a pass because
his job and the process of democracy
are difficult.
He wanted the job and now he
should do it.

Editorial
I refuse to be a party to
deceiving the American people
yet again.
U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann
The Minnesota Republican running for president
with tea party support on Friday revolted, vowing
not to fall in line with the GOP House speakers plan to raise the
nations $14.3-trillion debt ceiling.
THE BIG news, as far as
the media are concerned,
is the political game of
debt-ceiling chicken that is
being played by Democrats
and Republicans in Wash-
ington. But, however much
the media are focused on what is happen-
ing inside the Beltway, there is a whole
country outside the Beltway and the time
is long overdue to start thinking about
what is best for the rest of the country, not
just for right now but for the long haul.
No matter how the debt-ceiling crisis
turns out, the current economic turmoil in
financial markets around the world should
cause some serious thoughts about the
long run, and about the whole idea of a
national debt-ceiling.
Some people might have been shocked
when the credit-rating firm Moodys recent-
ly suggested that the debt-ceiling law be
repealed, in order to avoid fiscal crises that
can throw world financial markets into
turmoil and injure countries around the
world.
Anyone who wants to show that Moodys
is wrong should be prepared to show the
actual benefits of the debt-ceiling, not its
goals or hopes. That will not be easy, if
possible at all.
Too many policies, programs and in-
stitutions are judged by what they are sup-
posed to do, rather than by what they ac-
tually do and the consequences of their
actions. The United Nations, for example,
survives as a glorious idea, despite how
corrupt, counterproductive and even dan-
gerous its actions are.
The national debt-ceiling law should be
judged by what it actually does. The one
thing that the national debt-ceiling has
never done is to put a ceiling on the rising
national debt. Time and time again, for
years on end, the national debt-ceiling has
been raised whenever the national debt
gets near whatever the current ceiling
might be.
Regardless of what it is supposed to do,
what the national debt-ceiling actually does
is enable any administration to get all the
political benefits of runaway spending for
the benefit of their favorite constituencies
and then invite the opposition party to
share the blame, by either raising the na-
tional debt ceiling, or by voting for unpop-
ular cutbacks in spending or increases in
taxes.
What would happen if there were no
national debt-ceiling law?
Those people who got the political bene-
fits from handing out trillions of dollars of
the taxpayers money (plus borrowed mon-
ey) also would get the clear and sole blame
for the resulting skyrocketing national debt
and all the unpopular consequences.
Those people who want serious and
substantial spending cuts are absolutely
right in what they want. There are not only
government programs that need to be cut,
but also whole government agencies, in-
cluding Cabinet-level Departments, that are
not merely useless but positively harmful
on net balance.
There are a lot of things that could be
cut, and should be cut, instead of default-
ing on the nations debts. But that is not
likely to happen, if Obama and his media
chorus can instead blame the Republicans
for forcing a government shutdown or a
credit default.
Regardless of how the crisis is resolved,
Moodys suggestion of repealing the nation-
al debt-ceiling law deserves some very
serious thought, because that law is the
crucial factor in the political games that
allow big spenders to blame others for the
consequences of their own irresponsibility.
Those people who say that the reckless
spending and reckless borrowing of the
Obama administration are the roads to ruin
are absolutely right.
Too many policies and institutions are
judged by what they are supposed to do,
rather than by what they actually do.
Sky, not the ceiling, is the limit for runaway spending

COMMENTARY
T H O M A S S O W E L L
TWELVE NEW governors
who ran on anti-tax plat-
forms have now signed their
first fiscal year budgets.
All of them will tell you
they were elected with a
mandate to get their states
fiscal house in order, rein in government
spending and cut taxes. Some of them will
even tell you they view New Jerseys Chris
Christie as their model a primo example
according to Wisconsins Scott Walker of
how a conservative governor governs. This
should alarm you.
Gov. Christie recently vetoed a widely
popular and eminently sensible tax on New
Jersey millionaires. This temporary tax,
affecting a mere 0.2 percent of all households,
would have generated around $500 million,
primarily for public schools. In the same
budget, Christie raised (yes, raised) taxes on
his states working poor by cutting about $45
million from the Earned Income Tax Credit,
which helps people working full-time in low-
wage jobs to make ends meet.
He went on to shred the Democratic legis-
latures budget, which paid for things such as
police protection, a health-care safety net and
college tuition grants. Christie said no to all
of it, insisting the state didnt have the mon-
ey.
And yet he managed to set aside $640
million ($365 million if you accept his revised
math) that he calls a healthy and necessary
surplus necessary to his career, maybe, but
not healthy for his constituents.
New Jersey is one of more than 30 states
that, in 2009, decided temporarily to boost
some taxes to help make up revenues that
were drying up with the recession. Even with
those temporary infusions, states had to
excise billions from their budgets to stay in
the black. Those mostly two-year fixes have
now expired, as have the federal stimulus
dollars that kept many state budgets afloat.
Now, with hospitals, schools and police
forces scarcely shadows of their former
selves, and college tuition up as much as 50
percent and even 100 percent since 2008,
governors such as Christie are hoarding
surpluses while heaping burdens on average
taxpayers, too many of whom remain un- or
under-employed.
In Michigan, with its infamously precari-
ous economy, freshman Gov. Rick Snyder
delivered a particularly irrational budget. He
slashed all kinds of spending, cut business
taxes by more than a billion dollars, then
reduced the states Earned Income Tax Credit
by 70 percent, raising taxes on the states
working poor by more than $260 million
each year. According to our analysis, the
poorest 20 percent of Michiganders will be
hit hardest by the package of tax hikes that
Snyder pushed through. All to pay for alleg-
edly job-creating tax cuts for business, even
as the governor admits he cant guarantee
economy-boosting results.
Governors across the country have signed
budgets like these, with excruciating cuts in
government services, incomprehensible tax
increases for low- and middle-income house-
holds and utterly mystifying tax breaks bene-
fiting businesses and individuals with healthy
portfolios.
Like Christie, each of these governors left
hundreds of millions of available funds (previ-
ous surpluses or projected revenues) un-
spent. They like to call it fiscally responsib-
le, but sitting on millions while raising the
cost of living for low- and middle-income
families and passing the buck to cities and
counties (which is exactly what these
stripped down state budgets do, make no
mistake) is anything but fiscally responsible.
It is, however, politically profitable. And
taxpaying citizens should not fall for this
shell game.
Anti-tax governors fiscally reprehensible, not responsible

F YOU FOLLOWED the debt ceiling debate last week in
Washington, D.C., and found it (inspiring / dishearten-
ing), youre probably about ready to (cheer / weep) now
that Congress finally appears poised to (take back our
country by restoring fiscal sanity / push the nation over a cliff).
Can you believe how reckless (President Obama / House
Speaker Boehner) has been about this monumental matter? If
nothing else, the crisis again displayed how wrongheaded the
(Democrats agenda / Republicans ideology) is today and the
extent to which Washington remains (dysfunctional / dysfunc-
tional).
No matter where you stand, let your elected federal officials
know how you feel and how you expect them to vote. Call
their capital offices or visit their websites for district office
phone numbers, email addresses and straight-from-the-source
explanations of their views onthe latest debt ceilinglegislation.

W
E HAVE a boom-
ing gas industry
in Pennsylvania
all right, but
based on a good portion of the
newly released Marcellus
Shale Commission report, its
worth wondering if the major
output of all this drillingis heli-
um administered to our elect-
ed officials.
Theyve been acting posi-
tively dizzy over the prospects
for gas drilling. And were not
just talking about the Corbett
administration, but
also the Rendell ad-
ministration, which
helped usher in the
Marcellus Shale gas
rush in 2008.
Despite the heavy
representation of the
gas industry on the
commission, Corbett
should get some credit for
commissioning a report on an
industry that has exploded in
the past three years. Andwhile
the report reflects the indus-
trys bias, and is notable more
for what it lacks than what it
provides, thereport is at least a
starting point for coming to
grips with the huge impacts
that drillers have had on the
state.
For example, workers stay-
ing in motels long-termmeans
the Endless Mountains region
lost $142,000 in tax revenue
because the lawwaives the ho-
tel tax for those staying in a
motel more than 30 days. Wya-
lusing Township had to in-
crease road workers wages by
20 percent to stay competitive,
and homeless rates are rising
due to housing shortages.
Its in the 17-page list of 96
recommendations where a
fuller picture of the industrys
impact emerges: Recommen-
dations for further work to en-
sure the safety and regulation
of the industry, such as assess-
ments, monitoring, reporting
and regulatory changes would
fall primarily on the shoulders
not only of local municipal-
ities, but also on the state de-
partments of Transportation,
Environmental Protection,
Conservation and Natural Re-
sources, Health
and others . . .
many of which
have just seen
their budgets cut.
So where does
the money come
from to follow
through on the
commissions rec-
ommendations?
That question underscores
the limits of an impact fee
thats limited to localities and
provides the strongest argu-
ment yet for the value of a sev-
erance tax. That could help
fund the state agencies that
will be doing most of the addi-
tional work.
And with no clear figures on
the number of jobs the indus-
try has generated the claims
range from19,000, to a high of
72,000 (from a new hires ac-
count by the Department of
Labor) we cant helpwonder-
ing: Why are we turning our-
selves inside out to make sure
the industry grows before
weve had a clear-eyed, unbi-
ased study that better mea-
sures rewards against impact?

F O R U M
WERE IN the
midst of a
great four-year
national de-
bate on the
size and reach
of govern-
ment, the
future of the welfare state,
indeed, the nature of the social
contract between citizen and
state.
The distinctive visions of the
two parties social-democratic
versus limited-government
have underlain every debate on
every issue since Barack Oba-
mas inauguration: the stimu-
lus, the auto bailouts, health
care reform, financial regu-
lation, deficit spending. Every-
thing. The debt ceiling is but
the latest focus of this funda-
mental divide.
The sausage-making might
be unsightly, but the problem is
not that Washington is broken,
that ridiculous ubiquitous
clich. The problem is that
these two visions are in compe-
tition, and the definitive pop-
ular verdict has not yet been
rendered.
Were only at the midpoint.
Obama won a great victory in
2008 that he took as a mandate
to transform America toward
European-style social democra-
cy. The subsequent counterrev-
olution delivered to that project
a staggering rebuke in Novem-
ber 2010. Under our incre-
mental system, however, a
rebuke delivered is not a man-
date conferred. That awaits
definitive resolution, the rubber
match of November 2012.
But reversal rollback, in
Cold War parlance is simply
not achievable until conserva-
tives receive a mandate to
govern from the White House.
Lincoln is reputed to have
said: I hope to have God on my
side, but I must have Kentucky.
I dont know whether conserva-
tives have God on their side (I
keep getting sent to His voice
mail), but I do know that they
dont have Kentucky they
dont have the Senate, they
dont have the White House.
And under our constitutional
system, you cannot govern
from one house alone.
Given this reality, trying to
force the issue turn a block-
ing minority into a governing
authority is not just counter-
constitutional in spirit but
self-destructive in practice.
Consider the Boehner Plan
for debt reduction. The Heri-
tage Foundations advocacy
arm calls it regrettably in-
sufficient. Of course it is.
Thats what happens when you
control only half a branch. But
the plans achievements are
significant. It is all cuts, no
taxes. It establishes the prece-
dent that debt-ceiling increases
must be accompanied by equal
spending cuts. And it provides
half a year to both negotiate
more fundamental reform (tax
and entitlement) and keep the
issue of debt reduction con-
stantly in the public eye.
I am somewhat biased about
the Boehner Plan because for
weeks Ive been arguing (in this
column and elsewhere) for
precisely such a solution: a
two-stage debt-ceiling hike
consisting of a half-year exten-
sion with dollar-for-dollar
spending cuts, followed by
intensive negotiations on entit-
lement and tax reform. Its
clean. Its understandable. Its
veto proof. (Obama wont
dare.) The Republican House
should have passed it weeks
ago.
After all, what is the alterna-
tive? The Reid Plan with its
purported $2 trillion of debt
reduction? More than half of
that comes from not continuing
surge-level spending in Iraq and
Afghanistan for the next 10
years. Ten years? Were out of
Iraq in 150 days.
The Congressional Budget
Office has found that Harry
Reids other discretionary sav-
ings were overestimated by
$400 billion.
The Obama plan? There is
no Obama plan. And the
McConnell plan, a final resort
that punts the debt issue to
Election Day, would likely yield
no cuts at all.
Obama faces two massive
problems jobs and debt.
Theyre both the result of his
spectacularly failed Keynesian
gamble: massive spending that
left us a stagnant economy with
high and chronic unemploy-
ment and a staggering debt
burden. Obama is desperate to
share ownership of this failure.
Economic dislocation from a
debt-ceiling crisis precisely
serves that purpose if the
Republicans play along. The
perfect out: Those crazy tea
partyers ruined the recovery!
Why would any conservative
collaborate with that ploy?
November 2012 constitutes the
new conservatisms one chance
to restructure government and
change the ideological course
of the country. Why risk forfeit-
ing that outcome by offering to
share ownership of Obamas
wreckage?
Who wants a piece
of Obamas wreckage?

ANOTHER VIEW
A photograph by Pete G. Wilcox
and words by Mark E. Jones
EVERY sum-
mer when the
temperature
goes up, people
start stripping
down. At the
risk of sounding
like a prude, I
find it unseemly. Toddlers look
cute in just a pair of shorts. Mid-
dle-age men do not. Most women
dont look good in shorts, period.
Yes, there are starlets strutting
down Sunset Boulevard beautiful
in little short-shorts, but theyre
the exception. I dont see them at
my local grocery store leaning
over the frozen food case. What I
see reaching for the ice cream is
just way too much. Im not talking
about age. Im not talking about
weight. Im just asking for mod-
esty. I dont want to be confronted
with body parts best seen only by
your doctor.
But America is a free country,
and imposing any kind of dress
code starts us down a very slip-
pery slope.
I was hiking in a park with a
friend and she told me howhappy
she was about the lawin France
prohibiting Islamic full-face veils
in public. I was appalled. Its free-
dom of religion, I said, and free-
dom of speech. Its oppression of
women, she replied. Howdo you
know? I asked.
At that moment, two young
women jogged past us in tiny,
stretchy shorts and bikini tops.
Nothing was left to the imag-
ination. They were fit and attrac-
tive, but I found myself thinking
Id almost rather my teenage
daughter wore a burka. One outfit
is as extreme as the other. Both
get second and third looks. Each
conveys an image of the woman
wearing it, a supposition that
might or might not be true.
As for oppression, what sort of
response will the girls in bikinis
get, especially from men? To be
ogled and objectified doesnt do
much for womens equality. You
could argue, as my friend did,
neither does a religion that re-
quires women to be completely
covered. But in a democratic
society, America or France, people
should be free to wear whatever
they want.
Driving in the Fairfax district, I
love to watch Orthodox Jewish
families walking to temple. The
men in their long coats and big
hats, the women in tailored suits
and wigs, and especially the little
boys with curling payos and yar-
mulkes and the tassels of their
prayer shawls flapping.
There is a Buddhist temple in
my neighborhood, and the monks
wear wonderful orange robes and
shave their heads, men and wom-
en alike.
I lived in Utah for seven years,
and Mormon garments, worn
under clothing, cover more skin
than what most people wear in
my Trader Joes. I would find their
nylon jumpsuits oppressive, but
its none of my business.
If we outlawburkas, then we
should ban all manner of religious
dress, including nuns habits and
priests collars. And if were sup-
pressing that personal expression,
where will it end?
A 20-year-old college football
player got on a plane in San Fran-
cisco reportedly wearing his pants
so lowhis whole butt in tight
black briefs, according to one
account showed. I dont know
howhe walked to his seat, but it
was a fashion statement: He must
have thought he looked cool. A
flight attendant took exception
and asked himto pull up his
pants. What happened next is in
some dispute, but eventually he
was arrested. He missed his flight,
but he wasnt charged.
Just days earlier, same airline,
an older man, white-haired, got on
a flight wearing blue womens
underwear, a matching spaghetti-
strap, midriff-baring top, a
cropped see-through sweater and
black thigh highs and high heels.
Airline personnel didnt say a
word.
Now, it was the white-haired
mans right to look ridiculous (up
to a point, which no one has said
he crossed), but the same right
was not extended to the football
player. Was it because the football
player was black? Was it because
he was young? Was it because he
looked gangsta? The flight at-
tendant made a judgment based
at least in part on a pair of sagging
sweatpants. Isnt that repression?
When does one persons ex-
pression become more important
than anothers? An11-year-old was
sent home from school for wear-
ing a T-shirt that read Obama a
Terrorists Best Friend. If another
kid wore a shirt reading Obama
the Best President Ever, some
might disagree, but who would
prevent himfrom sharing his
opinion?
At the mall some years ago I
passed a young woman wearing a
T-shirt bearing a vulgar message
about President Bush almost
impossible to explain to your
9-year-old. But I absolutely defend
her right to wear it.
Yes, I wish my across-the-street
neighbor would put on a shirt
when he stands in his driveway to
smoke a cigarette. His sweaty
chest hair over man-boobs is a
sight I could live without. But
then I remind myself: Summer
wont last forever.

Dog park gets
put to good use
M
y husband, our pets and I
were displaced from our
home on June 20. Except
for a few days in Chicago (a
pre-planned trip), we have
been staying at the Residence
Inn in Dickson City. There are
a lot of people, along with
their pets, staying there.
I have spent some time
drawing maps and giving
directions to the Abington
Community Dog Park. The
importance of the dog park
has taken on a whole new
meaning, as those who are
here for an extended time
were thrilled to hear about a
facility where their dogs
would be in a protected area.
I have heard many great
stories about how happy a pet
was to finally be able to run
around instead of always
being on lead while walking
the grounds around the inn or
staying cooped up in the
room.
We on the Dog Park Com-
mittee can be proud of the
work that was done to help
the community park become a
showplace, and I thank you all
for letting me be a part of this
endeavor.

JCC far exceeds
quest for care
I
am the mother of four and
find it necessary to send the
word to other parents about
the absolute gem in child
care/development programs
that I have found. The Jewish
Community Centers Kinder-
lach program, directed by
Cheri Greenberg, has been an
absolute blessing in caring
over the last year for my now
3-year-old.
The program has given me
the utmost comfort and sup-
port, as well as a consistent
line of communication that I
found lacking in other pro-
grams. There is a tremendous
feeling of family with an
equal amount of concern for
each child individually.
During my quest for care
last year, Cheri stayed on the
phone with me, addressing
concerns proactively on the
first day rather than reactively.
She gave me her home phone
number, cell number and
office number, as she did with
every parent.
Additionally, just in case we
had lost them along the way,
she sent home the numbers
every Friday along with our
childrens project bags.
She assured me that as my
son cried when I left, she
would hold him and comfort
him until he was soothed and
ready to begin play for the
day. She did just that. I never
once felt uncomfortable or
uneasy about leaving my
prized possession in her and
her staffs care.
The price is extremely rea-
sonable and the comfort I felt
was priceless.
Take my word that there is a
place out there that can love
your child just as much as you.
I could go on for hours about
the swim classes, music days,
library visits, graduation day,
picture days, field trips and so
on, but eventually I would fill
the entire newspaper.
As a final note, the program
is open and welcoming to all
denominations.

False assertions
drive debt debate
H
ere we are again, having
yet another national de-
bate based on false prem-
ises. This time its about the
debt limit.
What does the Constitution
say about the issue? The
Congress shall have power
to borrow money ... (Article
I, Section 8). But, read on.
The validity of the public
debt of the United States
shall not be questioned, ac-
cording to the 14th Amend-
ment, Section 4. In other
words, it is unconstitutional
not to raise the debt ceiling or,
perhaps more accurately, the
debt ceiling is unconstitu-
tional.
The president should, if
necessary, invoke the 14th
Amendment and pay the bills
by executive order.
But the premises of this
debate are wrong. Budget
figures usually combine trust
funds with the General Fund.
Thats nonsense, since the
trust funds are separate and
funded independently.
Without that distortion, the
total of the defense budget,
the cost of war thats distrib-
uted across other departments
of government, the portion of
interest paid thats due to
prior unfunded military
spending and extra-budgetary
spending for Iraq and Afghan-
istan accounts for as much as
54 percent of our spending a
total of $1.45 trillion in 2009.
The safety net accounts for
about 30 percent. These fig-
ures are from Analytical Per-
spectives from the 2009 Bud-
get of the United States. Poi-
gnantly, the debt limit was
created in the effort to raise
funds for World War I.
Its one thing to decide as a
nation to sacrifice the eco-
nomic security of our most
vulnerable citizens children,
the elderly, the poor, the
chronically ill, the unemploy-
ed in order to build nations
and empire. Its quite another
to make that decision and
pretend the debt is due to the
safety net.
A trumped-up debt hysteria
at a time like this is a lethal
fraud. Cutting federal spend-
ing in a recession is a national
suicidal ideation.

only will our job-killing debt

but also that it grew 83.6
percent under President Oba-
ma. That means every citizen
in this country owes more
than $46,000.
Washington must not wait
to cut spending and lower
deficits. I believe we are on
track to have the same eco-
nomic failures as Greece if we
continue down this road. The
presidents demands for more
borrowing to extend the debt
ceiling and more than $1 tril-
lion in new taxes are not the
answer. I am shocked that he
would even suggest raising
taxes in the middle of an eco-
nomic downturn.
The answer is to cut spend-
ing. We, as a nation, must
make sacrifices and forego our
reliance on the various federal
programs that eat up so much
of our nations budget. The
alternative is to leave this
country worse than we found
it and, most unsettling to me,
heap so much debt on our
children and grandchildren
that they will never have a
chance to have the lifestyle we
did.

SEND US YOUR OPINION
THE 8.7 percent un-
employment rate for
the Wilkes-Barre/
Scranton metro area
offers a mixed message
for a regional economy
looking for good news.
It is indeed a positive
sign that our rate of unemployment is
lower than the national average of 9.2
percent, but there is little consolation
when all of us know at least one person
who has lost his or her job in this fragile
economy.
In analyzing why the national rate
remains stubbornly high, two questions
must be answered: How do we measure
unemployment, and why are major
corporations not hiring when they are
mostly flush with cash?
There were positive signs in March
when Pennsylvania added 23,000 jobs.
Two months later, we received sobering
news that employment dropped by
14,000 jobs. There have been similar
anomalies on national unemployment
levels. The national economy added an
anemic 18,000 jobs in June, yet there are
14 million Americans who remain unem-
ployed.
The reduction in hiring nationwide,
though, is not a sign that there will nec-
essarily be a double-dip recession. The
decline in jobs might be accounted for by
the way we measure unemployment.
The Bureau of Labor & Statistics tracks
the civilian non-institutional popula-
tion, which includes everyone not in the
armed services, in school or in prison.
The remaining category classified as
not in the labor force is everyone
else, including what the bureau desig-
nates as discouraged workers those
who want a job but have stopped looking
for one.
This phenomenon explains why the
unemployment rate actually increases
when recessions begin to end. People
who had given up on a finding a job see
that firms are hiring and they re-enter
the job market, thereby increasing the
unemployment rate. Eventually, as the
upturn of the business cycle continues
and the economy expands, these re-
entrants into the labor force, along with
new immigrants and recent college
graduates, find employment.
Its also estimated that major corpora-
tions are sitting on cash roughly the
equivalent to the gross domestic product
of much of Latin America. Why arent
they spending this money on plants,
equipment and training, thereby in-
creasing production and employment?
There are several reasons.
During this Great Recession, Amer-
ican companies learned to operate with
fewer employees. There will come a
time, however, when corporations begin
to reach diminishing returns. As the
demand for their products increases, the
productivity gains they have realized will
no longer sustain the need for increased
production. At that point, more people
will be hired.
Uncertainty is hampering hiring also.
Businesses have been uncertain about
the demand for their products or ser-
vices and do not want to be overextend-
ed if the recession continues.
This type of uncertainty always has
been present in down business cycles.
However, another kind of uncertainty is
more prevalent today than in the past. It
is precipitated by the perceived and real
threat of changes in government policies,
particularly with regard to taxation and
regulation. The fact that the National
Labor Relations Board is attempting to
prohibit Boeing Corp. from occupying its
new multibillion-dollar plant in South
Carolina on the grounds that it cannot
move jobs from Washington to South
Carolina might make companies leery
about opening new facilities and thereby
employing additional people.
A good argument can be made, per-
haps, that increases in select taxes are
necessary to fund programs that most
people believe are necessary, especially
when you consider that corporate and
individual tax rates are relatively low.
This uncertainty over taxes also impacts
consumer demand and delays hiring
decisions.
Finally, health care costs for employers
are increasing rapidly and currently
represent as much as 25 to 35 percent of
the cost of an employees salary and
benefits. Well-intentioned health care
policies often have the unintended conse-
quence of conveying great uncertainty to
employers who continue to see heath
care costs grow.
Try as we might, the American econo-
my can never outfox the business cycle.
Eventually, economic circumstances
whether they are a diminishing housing
market, a declining stock market or
other factors will precipitate a general
decline in the demand for products and
services, which will in turn lead to di-
minished production and unemploy-
ment. We can try to mitigate the reces-
sion with various fiscal and monetary
policies, but this deep recession seems to
be quite resilient.
No matter how we calculate unem-
ployment, there are too many Americans
out of work. Bringing them back into the
workplace needs to be done through
policies that are focused on the long run
and do not create the uncertainty that
has marked many policy decisions to
date.
No matter how you work the numbers, too many people are jobless

Manager search
must be first-rate
I
was pleased to see that
Luzerne Countys Home
Rule Transition Committee
decided against adding a
clause to its advertisement
that would have called for
releasing to the public the
names of applicants for the
county manager job.
I think it is far too early in
the process to release appli-
cants names, and doing so
might well hinder some of the
most qualified candidates
from even applying because
they would not want their
names disclosed. We need to
assure the public that the
search has been as broad and
far-reaching as possible.
The transition committees
role is to advertise the posi-
tion and short-list those candi-
dates with the best creden-
tials. The committee cannot
make the actual selection,
because the position will not
be filled until the 11 newly
elected council members take
their seats in January 2012.
Releasing the names of appli-
cants before they even have
undergone thorough reference
checks is not an indication of
transparency, but irresponsib-
ility.
At the point when the seat-
ed council members have had
the opportunity to thoroughly
review the applicants and
create a list of finalists, it
might be prudent to release
the applicants names; but that
decision is a long way off.
Until then we need to let the
process unfold discretely and
allow the candidates the priva-
cy they deserve while the
transition committee conducts
a nationwide search for the
best possible manager.
No decision pertaining to
this new form of government
will be as important as the
selection of a county manager.
If we fail to get this right, the
residents of Luzerne County
will be the losers and the
change in government will
have achieved nothing. The
process itself must unfold in a
thoughtful, responsible way.
Our countys future depends
on it.
Elaine Maddon Curry

Luzerne County Council
Drums
Council nominee
favored openness
A
s Luzerne County begins a
new future with home
rule, an important goal of
this new government needs to
be building and restoring trust
with the residents of this
county. A great start should
begin with releasing to the
public the names of the appli-
cants for county manager.
I believe by releasing all the
names of these applicants, it
will provide full transparency
to the public and hopefully
prevent any political friends
from being hired to this top
county post. The benefit of
releasing all the names and
not only the finalists names
is to prevent any highly qual-
ified candidate from being
unnoticed so that some politi-
cal friend can pass up the truly
most qualified person. I do not
believe that politics is dead
yet in Luzerne County.
I do understand the argu-
ment for why names should
not be released. Some people
say that it will prevent highly
qualified candidates from
applying and it can put their
current jobs at risk. This is a
valid argument and I respect
it; but there also is no way
that we can prove that will
happen. I believe this impor-
tant position, which will pay
more than $100,000 in annual
salary, will still attract many
qualified candidates even if
they know their names will be
made known to the public.
The responsibility of county
council is to look out for the
residents of Luzerne County,
not for the jobs of applicants.
I realize that there are peo-
ple who will have different
opinions on this issue. For
those who disagree with my
stance, please understand that
my reasoning for this is solely
driven by a desire to prevent
any person who is highly
qualified for this extremely
important position from being
passed up for some not-so-
qualified, political friend.
As a member of the Govern-
ment Study Commission who
helped to write this home rule
charter, I understand the im-
portance of this county man-
ager position and realize that
if we do not hire the most
qualified person at the start of
this new government, the
future success of Luzerne
County will take that much
longer to achieve.
The key of this new home
rule government is account-
ability, and in order for the
public to hold county council
accountable, the public needs
to be able to see everything
which includes the names of
applicants for the county
manager position.

A 5K benefit run
to help Help Line
M
any years ago, Help Line
received a call from a
single mother who didnt
have the money to pay for her
gas bill, which was necessary
to heat her home. The prob-
lem had persisted over several
months, resulting in a fear
that if the gas was shut off, the
children might have been
removed from the home.
The bill was more than
$1,000, which she just didnt
have. To complicate the mat-
ter, she was convinced that
her bill was inaccurate. The
gas company had gone to her
house to address the concern
but could find no error.
The diligence of the Help
Line staff in coordinating
services, working closely with
the Commission on Economic
Opportunity and in advocating
for the young woman resulted
in uncovering a billing error
and no interruption in service.
The young mother became an
advocate for Help Line and
located employment, working
with an organization whose
mission was to help others in
need.
For nearly 40 years, Help
Line has assisted people in
our community around the
clock with needs ranging from
locating resources for utility
assistance to infant nutrition
to care services for the elderly.
The vitality of the program
has consistently grown, as
evidenced by the number of
consumer contacts made:
99,775 in the past year.
The recently adopted state
budget and other funding cuts
have placed Help Line in jeop-
ardy. Reduced staffing has
resulted in reduced ability to
respond to those in need.
While the program continues
to provide service around the
clock, it can no longer provide
advocacy to the extent it once
did.
While we applaud the suc-
cessful efforts of our local
state legislators to partially
restore funds that initially had
been eliminated in the state
budget, Help Line now asks
for your help.
On Aug. 14, Family Service
Association, the parent agency
for the Help Line program,
will hold the Pauly Friedman
5K Family Walk/Run at Miser-
icordia University. All pro-
ceeds from the event are used
to support Help Line.
Registration for the event
begins at 8:30 a.m. at the
universitys Anderson Com-
plex, but pre-registration is
strongly encouraged by con-
tacting 823-5144, extension
309.
Teams are forming now, so
get your friends and your
family to support this worthy
program.
Help Line will continue to
be there for your call; please
respond to ours.

Juskie stood tall
in the Heights
T
o all who knew him as
Juskie, this man had a
name: Joseph Kochanski.
But he will be remembered as
Juskie, the Godfather of
Baseball (as one of his former
players noted on Facebook) in
the Heights area of Wilkes-
Barre.
He was a man who put the
neighborhood children above
everything. When Juskie was
at the helm, no child in the
area, in Little League and
Teeners, would go a summer
without being afforded the
opportunity to play Juskie
Ball.
Juskie knew every players
first and last names, knew
their parents and knew where
every kid lived. Juskie treated
every kid with respect wheth-
er it was the all-star or the
beginner. If a kid needed a
glove, he got him one the next
day.
Not only was this guy the
glue that kept both divisions
running smoothly for many
years, he also coached some
pretty impressive Heights
Teeners teams over his tenure.
He knew the game and had a
great knack of being able to
translate his knowledge to the
kids he coached.
There are very few con-
versations dealing with
Heights baseball and GAR
baseball that can start and end
without Juskies name coming
up somewhere in the con-
versation.
Juskie touched so many
lives and will long be remem-
bered and respected by all the
kids he served, and by all of
his peers as well.
Long live Juskie Ball.

Pay attention or

F
ormer House Speaker
Nancy Pelosi is the one
who would deem a bill
passed and then carefully look
at it afterward to see what was
in it. She is the one who ad-
vocated that no longer would
there be any deficit spending.
The shadow government of
czars and operatives appoint-
ed by Obama without congres-
sional vetting is the scariest.
These bureaucrats were
placed there to implement
Obamas vision of America,
not the electorates vision.
Obama and his cohorts do not
understand free market cap-
italism, the goose that laid
the golden egg for America.
Cut out stupid programs
such as poems in zoos,
shrimps walking on tread-
mills, creating a new foods
chart, etc. Budget deficits are
the result of growing govern-
ment and spending money we
dont have on pet projects.
The question on taxes:
What about the nearly 50
percent of Americans who do
not pay any taxes?
Obamas political genius is
his ability to say things that
will sound good to people who
have not followed the issues in
any detail, regardless of how
obviously fraudulent what he
says might be to those who
have. Shameless effrontery
can be a huge political asset,
especially if uninformed vot-
ers outnumber those who are
informed.

DALLAS The most violent
and sensational cases with links
to domestic violence are hard to
miss in the newspaper and on tel-
evision news.
There was Susan Loper, the
Frisco, Texas, mom and fitness
instructor who was killed in
April, allegedly by a former boy-
friend who later jumped into the
Grand Canyon to escape police.
Police were searching for the
husband of Maritza Panameno,
the Irving, Texas, mother of three
whose body was found in the
Trinity River the same month.
And on Saturday, 35-year-old
Tan Do shot and killed his es-
tranged wife, Trini Do, and four
other members of her family at a
childrens birthday party before
taking his own life.
For every one of those high-
profile killings, there are thou-
sands of family violence assaults,
threats and other crimes that no
one hears about. The abuse,
which may start small, often es-
calates over time, according to
experts. Some victims are afraid
to leave their abusers, and re-
ports show that victims can ac-
tuallyface more danger if theytry
to move on.
The operators of womens shel-
ters say that they are now busier
than ever. In addition, those pro-
grams are struggling with fewer
resources because of government
cuts and reduced donations.
This summer, The Family
Place has had to turn away wom-
en trying to escape abuse be-
cause its shelter has been full.
And Genesis Womens Shelter in
Dallas reports record demand,
with 400 names on a waiting list
for counseling.
The statistics are very grim,
said Pat Tosi, chief executive offi-
cer of Hopes Door, a Plano do-
mestic violence program. Peo-
ple dont even want to hear about
this. They dont want to hear that
its all over the place.
The prevalence of domestic vi-
olence means that most of us
probably know someone who is
being abused.
It could be the person check-
ingyouout at thegrocerystoreor
working at the doctors office,
said Derrelynn Perryman, vic-
tims services coordinator for the
Arlington Police Department.
The department files reports on
more than 3,000 family violence
incidents per year, and half of the
citys 14 homicides in 2011 in-
volved family domestic violence.
The violence goes on much
more than most people realize,
said Dallas Police Lt. Diana
Watts. Dallas reported more than
13,000 family violence cases in
2010.
Our caseload is high but it
stays behindcloseddoors. Its not
where we can see it, Watts said.
People are going to jobs every
day bruised from the neck down
where we cant see.
More than 40 percent of Texas
shelters donot haveenoughmon-
ey to meet the rising needs, ac-
cording to an annual survey by
the National Network to End Do-
mestic Violence in Washington,
D.C.
Many shelters have cut servic-
es and staff because of the econo-
my, according to another recent
study by Dallas-based Mary Kay
Inc.
Meanwhile, victims arestaying
longer than they have in the past
at The Family Place, said Paige
Flink, the Dallas agencys execu-
tive director. Those seeking help
cant find jobs or affordable
homes, slowing the pipeline from
the shelter into housing pro-
grams.
It makes it hard to serve as
many people because youre serv-
ing them longer, Flink said.
Some attribute increased fam-
ily violence to the struggling
economy. But local shelter offi-
cials caution that economic fac-
tors alone do not cause someone
to be abusive.
Not having money isnt going
to make him beat you; its an ele-
ment to a situation thats very
tough as it is, Flink said.
Much progress on the domes-
tic abuse front has been made the
past fewdecades, withmore shel-
ters being opened and more laws
passed to protect victims.
There also is more public
awareness and at an earlier
age. Dating-violence programs
are teaching the youngest gener-
ation to recognize red flags for
abusive behavior early on. Many
teens are taught in schools to be
careful with people who are pos-
sessive or withthose whopushto
get into a serious relationship
quickly.
But JanLangbein, executive di-
rector of Genesis Womens Shel-
ter, says she is frustrated that the
violence remains high. Langbein
said friends can do something
about abuse by just checking on
one another. She wishes she had
done that with her friend Mary
Richardson.
The University Park woman
was murdered in1999 by her hus-
band, Timothy Patrick Richard-
son, whostrangledandnearly de-
capitated her. He was sentenced
to 60 years in prison. Langbein
said she did not know her friend
was in danger, and she wonders
whether there were any signs she
may have missed.
I never said, Mary, are you
OK? Langbein said.
People experiencing abuse
may not reach out because they
do not always see themselves as
victims, Flink said. Some blame
themselves for the violence. Oth-
ers may fail to recognize the po-
tential seriousness and conse-
quences.
It either feels verynormal or it
is minimized, she said. Some-
times I think the victim underes-
timates howbadit couldpossibly
get.

We also may not have the waves of an ocean, but we
do have falling water aplenty. In fact, Ricketts Glen
State Park, off Route 118 near Dallas Township,
alone contains 22 named waterfalls. Adams Falls
can fairly be called the parking-lot falls for their
easily accessible beauty right below the parking lot.
Check out the upper pool (not for swimming) and
the flat, mossy rocks that almost beckon you to
climb all over them. Wear sensible shoes, and bring
water, however! Exploring anything inside the
breathtaking Ricketts Glen is glorious but poten-
tially strenuous.
We may not be the Upper Peninsula of Michigan or that Land O Lakes called Minnesota,
but we sure do have our share of restful water. Eagles Mere Lake in Sullivan County, near
the two-mile-square borough of the same name, is one of the most picturesque and has
even secured a spot in the National Register of Historic Places. The lake and town are
lovely enough for the New York Times to have taken notice. In 2006, a reporter for the
Gray Lady wrote: People give their houses names like Kozy Korner and By-Da-Wee and
pick up their mail at the post office. The hub of downtown is the Sweet Shop, part soda
fountain and part casual restaurant. The 114-acre lake is surrounded by hemlocks and
laurel and has a swimming dock, a small sand beach, canoes and sailboats for rent and
an old-fashioned green wooden bathhouse. Jet Skis and gas-powered motorboats are
forbidden. A 26-foot wooden boat dating to the World War I era, the Hardly Able, carries
passengers around the lake.

Nothing quite speaks to the NEPA spirit of adventure like white-
water rafting along the Lehigh River in Carbon County. Summer-
time is especially easy on all skill levels, as the water is not as
wild, and wetsuits are often optional. Experienced guides from
outfitters such as Whitewater Challengers, Pocono Whitewater
or JimThorpe River Adventures will see to your safety.
FRED ADAMS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER
Take them out to a ballgame at the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
Yankees Stadium. August begins with Bats, Bulls and Braves
face-offs and finishes in the Red, with battles against Red
Wings and Sox. Giveaway fans will want to show up Saturday,
when the first 2000 fans to the gate will score aluminum
sport bottles, or Aug. 27, when jersey bags are the booty.

HOROSCOPE
HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
Something is always
kept when you give, and
in todays case, its big.
Perhaps its only a feel-
ing, but it has weight and
impact. Youll carry it with
you for years to come.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Creativity isnt something
you acquire; its something
youve had all along. Like
Dorothys ruby slippers,
you only need to know
how to access the magic in
order to be transported.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
You reduce your expecta-
tions and resign yourself
to accept what comes.
Its not because youre
pessimistic. Its because
you love the feeling of
being pleasantly surprised
by life.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
You are likely to misjudge
your own capabilities,
underestimating your
strength and stamina.
When you feel depleted,
push through. Youll
get a second wind and
accomplish something
remarkable.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Loved
ones have a way of get-
ting under your skin. Only
those who know you best
can say the things that
bother you most. Luckily
for them, you will be in a
merciful mood.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
It is very rare to succeed
on the first try, and it may
also be unlucky. Its far
better to experience the
entire learning curve. Then
youll be able to re-create
your success at will.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Instead of dismissing a
new process as not for
you, think of it as an
exercise and dive right in.
The only way to make sure
youre not submitting to
complacency is to learn
something new.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Youll take a chance and
be very proud of yourself
at the end of it, whether
or not it turns out the way
you hoped it would. Your
ability to be in the moment
is impressive.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). The one you love may
grapple with people you
dont admire. However,
youll adhere to excellent
boundaries. Youll live and
let live. This policy will
prove to be truly brilliant.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). Your ability to pace
yourself will prove most
useful. Youll be a rock for
someone you love. You
cant tell now how far this
gesture will reach. This is
one for the decades.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
The look you give people
matters. It may be a tiny
micro-expression, but it
reads loud and clear.
You make your innermost
feelings known, especially
to those who have been,
up until now, quite
unobservant.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Youll be around those
who have little self-control,
and youll realize just how
important it is to maintain
a certain amount of struc-
ture around your daily
activities.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (July
31). You are warm and
inviting. You can be this
way because you dont
have a fear of getting
close to people. August
sees you in the mood to
learn and love. September
and December are high
points for your personal
and professional develop-
ment. A leap of faith leads
to thrilling adventure
in November. Libra and
Scorpio people adore you.
Your lucky numbers are:
30, 1, 14, 39 and 28.

DEAR ABBY
Moms death interrupts
progress of romance
Dear Abby:
Im a 47-year-
old woman
who started
dating Earl
about three
weeks ago.
We had gotten off to a great
start. We talk easily, were
comfortable with each other
and we seem to share values.
Last week, Earls mom
passed away, which has
made continuing the rela-
tionship difficult. He was
close to her and is going
through a rough time.
Im willing to stick by him
and go through this painful
process with him. I have
been through it myself. Earl
said he still wants to see
me, but because of what hes
dealing with, if someone else
comes along, I should take
that opportunity.
Abby, I dont want to look
for anyone else. I already
care a lot for Earl, but Im
confused about what to do. I
have had enough hurt to last
me the rest of me life, and
I know Earl could tell me
at any time that he can no
longer handle this because of
his situation. Please tell me
what I should do.
Lady in Waiting
Dear Lady In Waiting: You
seem like a nice, but needy
lady. You have known Earl a
grand total of three weeks,
which is not long enough for
either of you to make serious
plans. Right now Earl needs
your support and friendship
more than he needs a ro-
mance, so slow down.
Dear Abby: I have found my
soul mate. We have a new-
born son and are very happy.
We plan to be married next
year, after we have saved
enough for the wedding.
I have been hiding a se-
cret from him. I have had
bulimia for 20 years. Should
I tell him before we marry?
I am terrified it will harm
our relationship. How can
I tell him without hurting
him? Im afraid he wont
understand what it will take
for me to heal myself. Please
advise, Abby.
Keeping It to Myself
Dear Keeping It To Your-
self: You should absolutely
tell him before you marry.
You should also be prepared
to answer any questions he
may ask about your eating
disorder. What would hurt
him and harm your relation-
ship would be to marry him
without his knowing the
facts about your illness. If
he is truly your soul mate,
he wont run away. He will
stand by you and support
you any way he can.

PARADE - SUNDAY, SEPT 11TH
SANTA CRUZ, Calif. Click,
thump, riiiiing! Thats the sound
of something you often hear
about but rarely see: A carousel
rider going for the brass ring.
It happens on a daily basis on
the Looff Carousel at the Santa
Cruz Beach Boardwalk, where
painted ponies have been spin-
ning for a century, a triumph of
tradition in a field dominated by
the pursuit of new thrills.
I love it, says 57-year-oldGer-
ry Watt of Sacramento, who has
been visiting the Boardwalk for
decades and was never too cool
for the carousel, even in my
teens.
The Boardwalk, set beside the
long, golden sweep of Santa Cruz
Main Beach, goes back to 1865
when a man named John Lei-
brandt opened a public bath-
house nearby. Others followed
and soon Santa Cruz was draw-
ing people who wanted to enjoy
the allegedly curative properties
of bathing in salt water.
Restaurants and curio shops,
followed and at the turn of the
20th century, promoter Fred W.
Swanton decided to open a casi-
no and boardwalk that would be
the Coney Island of the West.
The carousel made its debut in
August 1911, built by Charles I.D.
Looff, a master woodcarver from
Denmark. Looff had already
made his name withhis first com-
plete carousel placed at Coney Is-
land in New York.
Back then, rides cost a nickel.
Today, the carousel, which has
been designated a National His-
toric Landmark, costs $3 a spin.
Looff apparently had a puckish
sense of humor. The story is that
he chose the middle initials I.D.
after Ellis Island immigration of-
ficials told him he had to have a
middle name for his I.D.
You can see that humorous
vein in the carousel horses, sever-
al of which boast toothy smiles.
The horses have real horsehair
tails and details ranging from
swords to flashing jewels. Some
have items strapped behind the
saddles, including a sheep and a
pheasant.
Thereare73horses 71jump-
ers plus two stationary horses
that are good for parents with un-
steady young riders as well as
two chariots decorated with the
heads of rams and cherubs.
The big draw of the carousel is
its ring dispenser. Rings were
once handed out by ring boys,
but since 1950, the process has
been mechanized.
The rings mostly steel these
days except on special occasions
when brass-plated ones are used
are dispensed by a long arm
that riders on outside horses can
reach. Yougraba ring, throwit to-
ward the gaping mouth of a large
clownpaintedonabackdropnear
the carousel and, if successful,
are rewarded by bells and flash-
ing lights.
Scoring a hit is a kick, one that
often is denied the left-handed
Watts, although that doesnt stop
him from rushing to secure an
outside horse.
Its really difficult. Theres
something about the trajectory,
he says.
The music has a vintage sound,
provided for 100 years by a 342-
pipe Ruth und Sohn band organ
built in 1894. In 2007, the Board-
walk acquired a Wurlitzer band
organ from the closed Playland-
at-the-Beach amusement park in
SanFrancisco, andthere is a third
small Wurlitzer organ.
The carousel has had its mo-
ment in the spotlight, being fea-
tured in films including The
Lost Boys, The King of Love,
and Sudden Impact.
Along with rides that range
fromkiddie to fairly thrilling, the
Boardwalk has the usual games
of chance, arcades and tempting
goodies, including deep-fried
Twinkies and Oreos.
If youre up for a brief walk, the
Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf is
less than half a mile away, featur-
ing several restaurants and curio
shops.
A fun choice is the take-away
window at The Dolphin at the
end of the wharf which serves up
a tasty clam chowder in a bread
bowl. Fenced holes in the wharfs
planking allows you to get a look
at sea lions that may be basking
below while you wait for lunch.
Watchout for the seagulls; theyll
steal your food if you leave it un-
attended.

BEST SELLERS
An often
light but still
poignant side
of F. Scott
Fitzgerald is
evident in
this compila-
tion of 19 of
his previous-
ly published
items and ar-
ticles, writ-
ten mostly for
popular mag-
azines during
1920-1940.
Edited by
Fitzgerald scholar James
L.W. West III, the collection
is billed as an autobiography
because the famed American
novelist and short story writ-
er keeps the focus on him-
self, his views and critiques,
his celebrated life and times.
The personal essays are
frequently funny and fast-
paced, particularly during
the 1920s when he enjoyed
huge literary success and,
with his spirited wife, Zelda,
came to embody the Jazz
Age.
But beset by personal
problems and a marital
breakup as the 1930s ground
into the Great Depression, a
somber side of Fitzgerald
shows through in the later
pieces. In a 1936 article for
Esquire magazine, After-
noon of an Author, Fitzger-
ald writes of his growing se-
clusion ... and the increasing
necessity of picking over a
well-picked past.
But this is not The Crack-
Up, the collection of Fitz-
gerald nonfiction published
five years after his death in
1940, which West says paints
Fitzgerald as an apologist
for the 1920s, a chronicler of
remorse and regret, and a
student of failure and lost
hope.
A Short Autobiography
is full of lighthearted prose
as Fitzgerald employs a va-
riety of unconventional
structures a witty self-in-
terview and a guided tour of
a house, for example
along with the serious essays
of a memoirist.
As West notes, many of
these pieces were written for
the paycheck handsome
paychecks, too and at
times its easy for a reader to
tell. But even the self-inter-
view, which Fitzgerald wrote
when he was 23 and didnt
see published in his lifetime,
contains memorable lines:
My idea is always to reach
my generation. The wise
writer, I think, writes for the
youth of his own generation,
the critic of the next and the
schoolmasters of ever after-
ward.
The pieces in A Short Au-
tobiography dont often
evoke the lyrically powerful
prose of The Great Gatsby,
Fitzgeralds iconic American
novel. Still, his gift is evi-
dent, even in a piece on Prin-
ceton University, as he de-
scribes entering the campus:
Two tall spires and then
suddenly all around you
spreads out the loveliest riot
of Gothic architecture in
America.
Fifteen of these 19 pieces
appeared in a 2005 collec-
tion, My Lost City: Personal
Essays, 1920-1940, publish-
ed by Cambridge University
Press and edited by West.
This new volume is more
accessible to the casual Fitz-
gerald reader the hardcov-
er is $25, paperback is $15
and e-book is $9.99, com-
pared with the Cambridge
editions price tag of more
than $100.
Light side
of Fitzgerald
evident in

By KENDAL WEAVER
For The Associated Press
F
or ancient Romans, Carthage Must Be Destroyed hadtobe the wave of the
future if they were to become the unrivaled masters of the Mediterranean
and the lands on its shores. Look at a map.
Carthage, a colony of seagoingPhoenicians fromwhat is nowLebanon, was strate-
gically on the Mediterraneans south coast, halfway between its Middle East home-
land and the entry to the Atlantic. It was building an empire of its own, subjecting
tribes in North Africa, Spain and the big islands of Sicily, Sardinia and Corsica.
The cry to destroy Carthage
was taken up by Cato, one of
Romes most respected sen-
ators. He got intothe habit of us-
ing the slogan as the last sen-
tence of any speech he made
no matter what hed been talk-
ing about. That disconcerting
practice must have helped give
Romans a case of the jitters
when Hannibal, Carthages
greatest general, mountedanin-
vasion of Italy, complete with
African combat elephants. It
went through Spain, southern
France and the Alps, up to the
gates of Rome. That invasion
failed, but a Roman invasion of
Carthage succeeded.
This is a scholars book. Au-
thor Richard Miles teaches an-
cient history at the University of
Sydney, Australia, and writes
here about events long past. He
has to quote copiously from
Greek and Roman historians,
some of dubious reliability and
little concern with todays ideas
of fairness and entertainment.
The victorious Romans got rid
of Carthages own records,
along with temples and other
public institutions. The book
has color photos of the ruins,
made in a suburb of todays Tu-
nis.
Some of the stories are still
teasingly attractive.
Theelephants impressedpeo-
ple. Smaller than the Asian va-
riety, they may still have been
able to carry archers, but they
sometimes panicked and tram-
pled on their own infantry, an
ancient version of friendly
fire. The Romans killed some,
captured some others and
marched them in the triumphal
parades that celebrated their
victories.
Some people marveled that
the Carthaginians got the ele-
phants across the broad Rhone
River in southern France. Poly-
bius, a Greek who wrote Roman
history, may have shared the de-
lusion that elephants couldnt
swim.
...(He) even repeated a story
that some of Hannibals ele-
phants, panicked by the water,
plunged into the river, and
crossed to the other side by
walking underwater on the riv-
erbed and using their trunks as
snorkels, Miles writes.
How ancient Rome built its Mediterranean empire

with temples and other public institutions. The book has color

If youve been to Hickory Run State Park near White Haven but bypassed Boulder Field, where on earth is your sense of adventure?
See what the glaciers have wrought as you attempt to keep your balance on this huge expanse of nothing but rocks thats been desig-
nated a National Natural Landmark. Again, sensible shoes are a must.
AT LEFT: Ithaca, N.Y., might be gorges, but Northeastern Penn-
sylvania is no slouch in that department. The David Wenzel Tree-
house at Scrantons Nay Aug Park provides the perfect lookout
point, as the first-of-its-kind construction in Pennsylvania, com-
pleted by Forever Young Treehouses, sits a spectacular 150 feet
above the Nay Aug Gorge. While in the park area, little ones are
sure to enjoy the inexpensive waterslides that drop into a large,
public pool.
If youre not afraid of depths, youll enjoy dropping 300 feet in a
small metal car while taking the popular Lackawanna Coal Mine
Tour at McDade Park in Scranton. On a hot summer day, the ride
to see what lies beneath is especially cooling, not to mention
educational. Youll learn about different veins of hard coal, the
roles of mule boy and nipper, monkey vein and the dead chute as
well as all the heroic efforts involved in deep minings history.
Rides are scheduled on demand daily between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.
Call 1-800-238-7245 or 570-963-6463 for details.
Now does this say postcard or what? The Twin Bridges in Fishing
Creek Township, Columbia County, over Huntington Creek, were
constructed in 1884 for $720 and named after John Paden, who
operated a nearby sawmill. The dynamic duo, one of which is
shown here, can claim bragging rights as the only twin covered
bridges in the United States.
ABOVE: The Equestrian Center at the golfers paradise called Eagle Rock Resort in Hazle Township
is a most picturesque place to ride horses, or enjoy a ride powered by horses. From10 a.m. until 5
p.m. most days, Country Carriage Service Inc. offers trail rides and pony rides, and, on Saturday and
Sunday nights, horse-drawn carriage rides are a happy bonus. Reservations are a must. Call (570)
384-4899 for exact times, options and prices.

SALE BY OWNER
BUY BUY ME ME
54 Penn Street
I am an older 3 bed-
room home with a
total upgrade. My
rooms are large and
airy, with oak floors
in the dining room.
My kitchen is mod-
ern with oak cabi-
nets, ceramic tile
backsplash, and a
built in table. My
laundry room is on
the first floor with a
powder room. My
master bath is
ceramic tile with
granite vanity and
walk in linen closet. I
have nice closets,
ceiling fans, and my
gas furnace works
great. My wrap
porch is lovely to
hang out on, and I
have a sweet side
yard that is fenced
with flowering bush-
es and hedges for
privacy. My full attic
has wood flooring,
my walls have been
repainted and some
have crown mold-
ing. I still have my
original stained
glass front window.
My neighbors are
Wyoming Valley
Mall, Home Depot,
and Holy Savior
Church. My owner
needs to move to a
smaller house, so I
am priced below
market. I am pretty
and clean and ready
to move into. Call
my owner and set
up a time to take a
look at me. $79,800
