stead was a normal 14-year-old kid
who loved playing basketball, foot-
ball and video games.

achieved high honor status at
Wilkes-Barre Areas GAR Junior/Se-

shot in front of 115-117 Hill St., two
houses away from his home at 121

day.
City police said little Friday about
the ongoing homicide investigation.

cause he had a
strong interest in
science and com-

I used to call him my little nerd

Former Luzerne County Commissioner
Greg Skrepenak is housed in a halfway house
through a pre-release program under the ju-
risdiction of the federal Correctional Com-
munity Office in Philadelphia, according to a
spokesman for the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
Skrepenak, who had been incarcerated at a
federal prison in West Vir-
ginia, was released Wednes-
day to the halfway house to
finish serving the balance of
a two-year prison sentence
imposed for his guilty plea
to a corruption charge, said
BOP spokesman Chris
Burke.
Under federal law, in-
mates are eligible for release to a halfway
house when they have a year or less left on
their sentence, Burke said.
Skrepenak, 42, was given a two-year sen-
tence for his guilty plea to accepting a $5,000
kickback as a reward for supporting a real es-
tate developers entry into a programto delay
payment of taxes on the project. He was sen-
tenced on Aug. 11, 2010 and reported to pris-
on on Sept. 16, 2010.

home in Dor-
rance Town-
ship, with his
family watch-
ing over him, ending a life well-
lived.
Born in Wilkes-Barre, he was
the son of the late James H. and
Ruth (Humphreys) McGeever. He
was educated in Wilkes-Barre
schools andwas a graduate of GAR
High School.
As a young man, Jim or
McGee, as he was known, forged

ed years to flying P-51 Mustangs
andB-29 Bombers while inthe ser-

gether with his wife, Marion, es-
tablished a home on the moun-
tain where family and friends
were always welcome to relax,
have fun and enjoy their times to-
gether.

MODESTO, Calif. A former
California teacher who made na-
tional headlines when he left his
job and family to move in with an
18-year-old student was arrested
Friday on suspicion of sexually
abusing a different student more
than a decade ago, police said.
Christopher Hooker, 41, was
arrested at his home and booked
in Stanislaus County Jail on one
count of oral copulation with a
minor.
Police said the abuse occurred
with a 17-year-old girl in 1998
when Hooker was a teacher at
Davis High School in Modesto.
The girl was a student at a differ-
ent school, police said.
In a statement, police said
Hooker befriended the 17-year-
old. The department did not im-
mediately return a call seeking
clarification of how the two met.
Hooker appeared in court Fri-
day. A judge entered a not guilty
plea on his behalf, set his bail at
$50,000 and assigned him a pub-
lic defender, the Modesto Bee re-
ported.
Hooker requested that his bail
amount be reduced, and the
judge set a hearingfor Tuesday to
consider the matter.
Police said the investigation
started after Hooker announced
his relationship in February with
Jordan Powers, whom he taught
at Enochs High School in Modes-
to.
Hooker has three children, in-
cluding one who was a junior at
Enochs.
The underage victim was dis-
covered in the course of that in-
vestigation, police said.
The couple maintains that,
while they met when Jordan was
14, their relationship did not be-
come physical until she was of
age, making it permissible under
current laws. Californias age of
consent is 18.
Teacher faces new sex charge
Christopher Hooker, who left

Even a dragons fire might not have
been enough to save Quentin Hellers
apple crop from an icy night Thursday
into Friday.
Workers at Heller Orchards in Wap-
wallopen were out at 4 a.m. running a
Frost Dragon, an industrial-size pro-
pane heater and blower capable of
warming temperatures over several
acres, in an effort to stave off frost.
Temperatures dropped below freez-
ing in parts of Luzerne County over-
night; cold enough to threaten fruit
trees that are blossoming early because
of a warmer-than-average March, and
forecasters predicted the cold would re-
turn Friday night into today.
Heller wasnt sure if the artificial
warming was enough to save his apple

HAZLETON The citys decade-
old New Years Eve celebration has
been canceled this year because of
federal funding cuts and difficulty
finding sponsors, Mayor Joseph Yan-
nuzzi said.
The cancellation of First Night Ha-
zleton came up at the city council
meeting this week when Councilman
Jack Mundie inquired about city eco-
nomic development officer Lena Ko-
tanskys position.
In addition to her economic devel-
opment duties, Kotansky coordinat-
ed the citys annual family-oriented
entertainment event since it began in
2001.
Mundy asked how it was decided
that Kotanskys job would be elimi-
nated.
Annetta Williams,
director of the Office
of Community Devel-
opment, said Kotan-
sky probably would
have been laid off for
a time, but her job
was not eliminated.
She found anoth-
er job; she resigned,
Williams said.
Mundy asked when
the administration
found out that state
funding for economic
development would
be cut.
City administrator
Mary Ellen Lieb said
the city was in-
formed after budget
talks were complete.
Obviously we knew that we we-
rent going to have enough (funding)
to take us through the year with the
employees we have, Lieb said.
The Office of Community Develop-
ment had two full-time positions and
one part-time position funded in the
budget. Kotanskys full-time position
paid about $51,000.
Lieb said funding was cut last year,
and the city was notified that officials
should expect another cut this year.
She said she planned to revise the
budget to reflect the cut when the
city received this years grant award
and present it to council at that time.
Kotansky has said the only funding
First Night got from the city was in-
kind police service, the time it took
streets department employees to
erect and take down a few saw horses
to block traffic, and a few hours of
free trolley bus rides in an eight-
square-block radius for First Night
patrons.

PLAINS TOWNSHIP Surrounded
by the sound of hammers and nails, 85-
year-old Steven Solovey sat on a lawn
chair in between his current and for-
mer home on Friday.
A trailer provided by the Federal
Emergency Management Agency lies
to his left, and to his right the River
Road home he build from the ground
up more than 55 years ago.
The latter was heavily damaged by
record September flooding, but thanks
to volunteers from across the country,
Solovey and his wife, Beatrice, are
closer than ever to being back in their
rightful home.

WILKES-BARREGov. TomCorbett
will be in Wilkes-Barre Monday to sign
SenateBill 815thenewjuvenilejustice
bill sponsored by state Sen. Lisa Baker.
Jen Wilson, spokeswoman for Baker,
R-Lehman Township, said the signing
will be held Monday at 1p.m. at the Lu-
zerne County Courthouse.
Sen. Baker is honored to have the
governor come to the community to
sign the bills, Wilson said. It demon-
strates the importance of the reform
measures.
Wilson said the
event is open to the
public.
SB-815 requires
that legal counsel be
present at juvenile de-
linquency hearings
andit eliminatesnear-
lyall waivingof counsel injuveniledelin-
quent hearings.
Baker saidrecentlythat ajuvenilesys-
tem marked by fairness, integrity, and
true justice is the goal that this legisla-
tion should help to guarantee.
She said that even with the newlaws,
new rules, and new oversight proce-
dures, it still comes down to having
quality people with integrity and forti-
tude to make the system work as it
should.
Baker also is sponsor of three other
bills regarding juvenile justice.
SenateBill 816establishesanOfficeof
VictimAdvocate to represent and advo-
cate for the interests of victims of juve-
nile crime; Senate Bill 817 restricts the
use of restraints on juveniles during
court proceedings, andSB-818wouldre-
quire judges to state on the record their
reasoning for placing youths in deten-
tion centers.
The bills address problems with the
state juvenile justice systemexposed in
the corruption scandal, in which ex-Lu-
zerne County judges Mark Ciavarella
and Michael Conahan were accused of
incarcerating juveniles for profit. Both
men now are serving federal prison
terms.

The National Weather Service
at Binghamtons temperature da-
ta, measured at the Wilkes-
Barre/Scranton International
Airport in Pittston Township,
said the overnight low reached
only 32 degrees, recorded at
11:59 p.m. Thursday, but farmers
indicated temperatures dropped
much lower in other areas of Lu-
zerne County overnight.
Heller said temperatures drop-
ped as low as 27 degrees in his
orchards. While apple trees can
survive a few degrees below
freezing, Heller said, it was close
enough to the danger zone to
draw his concern.
Its hard to tell by looking how
much damage the trees sus-
tained, Heller said, because the
emerging apples are now in a
tight cluster. Eventually they will
separate into several that will
mature. He said he wont know
for several weeks if the crop will
be spared the June drop, a phe-
nomenon in which apples whose
seeds did not form properly due
to early frost fall fromtrees early,
in June.
The freeze Thursday into Fri-
day added one more worry for
farmers already on edge from an
unseasonably warm spring,
which caused fruit trees to bud
weeks earlier than farmers
would have liked. The average
temperature in March was nearly
49 degrees, almost 12 degrees
above average, with temper-
atures swinging from a low of 20
on March 6 to a high of 78 March
23.
Its crazy weather Ill tell you,
Heller said. Im beginning to
think there might be something
to this global warming business;
I never saw a season like this.
We have a ways to go yet, he
added. Were not out of the
woods by a mile.
Chris Maylath of Maylath
Farm and Orchard in Sugarloaf,
said temperatures this spring
have been slightly cooler in
southern Luzerne County than
they have been further north,
which has kept apple trees on the
farm from budding too early.
The apples at Maylath Farm
are now in the pink stage, which
comes after green buds form but
before the cluster stage that Hell-
ers apples have entered. While
last night was cold, the buds
were probably hearty enough to
withstand it, Maylath said.
We actually might be in half-
decent shape as long as it doesnt
get any colder, he said. You re-
ally wont know until the apple
starts to develop in seven to 10
days, but right now I think were
going to be OK.
Cold temperatures were ex-
pected to continue overnight.
The National Weather Service is-
sued a freeze warning for Wilkes-
Barre, Hazleton and Scranton
from 2 a.m. until 11 a.m. today,
predicting temperatures could
drop into the middle to high 20s.

Northeast Coordinator Douglas
Sivers said the coalition also
works with representatives of
terian Church of Kirkland,

the home Monday by reframing
and bleaching walls, adding dry
wall and insulation and remov-

The job they did in just one
week is wonderful, he said.

about a dozen of the volunteers
who made the 2,750-mile jour-
ney to Pennsylvania and the So-
loveys flood-ravaged residence
in Plains Township.
We help people who arent in
a position to help themselves,
Shipe said.
Whether its from next door
or across the country, just being
here and having presence mat-
ters, she said.
The volunteers were coordi-
nated through the Susquehanna
Conference, a member of the
Pennsylvania Conference of the
FEMA, providing them with
names of flood victims and how
badlytheywereaffectedbyTrop-
ical Storm Lee.
We send teams to scope out
the magnitude of the disaster
and then we find the people who
need help the most, Sivers said.
According to Sivers, addition-
al events are planned for the
summer in the areas of Plains
Township and West Pittston,
with recipients of volunteer
work being determined on a
case-to-case basis.
Repairs to the Solovey home
are expected to be completed by

LOS ANGELES Al Gores
Current TV is blasting back at
fired host Keith Olbermann.
Ina court filingFriday, the net-
work attacked the liberal opin-
ion-maker as "arrogant" and"im-
mature" and said that he had
failed to show up for nearly half
of his recent workdays. The pa-
pers were a response to Olber-
manns $70 million breach-of-
contract lawsuit filed Thursday
against Current, which hired
him as its star last year but dis-
missed him in late March after
months of turmoil.
Current said it doesnt have to
"pay a dime" to Olbermann,
"who, having already been paid
handsomely for showing up spo-
radically and utterly failing to
keep his end of the bargain, now
seeks to be paid tens of millions
more for not working at all." The
papers also point out that Olber-
mann told David Letterman,
during a TV appearance this
week, that "I screwed up" at Cur-
rent.
The network, founded by the
former vice president with legal
entrepreneur Joel Hyatt, accuses
Olbermann of leaking his $10
million salary to the media to
help justify his decision to join
Current, which has roughly 68
million subscribers but very low
ratings.

More GSA spending probed
T
he General Services Administration
developed an employee awards
program that spent more than
$438,000 over three years, far exceed-
ing the agencys per-gift limit of $99,
congressional investigators reported
Friday.
Investigators for the House Trans-
portation and Infrastructure Commit-
tee said the Hats Off Program initial-
ly gave out items of nominal value.
Over time, the awards became iPods,
digital cameras, GPS devices and other
electronics. The spending was for the
2007 through 2010 budget years.
The agency has been under fire from
Congress after its inspector general
reported this week that GSA lavishly
spent $820,000 for a Las Vegas confer-
ence in 2010. The head of the agency
resigned, two deputies were fired and
other employees were suspended. The
Transportation panel and the House
Oversight and Government Reform
Committee are just starting investiga-
tions of the agencys wasteful spending.
MOSCOW
Russia setting up missiles
A Russian newspaper has reported
that the military has begun deploying
S-400 mobile surface-to-air missiles in
Kaliningrad, the Baltic exclave bor-
dered by Poland and Lithuania.
Izvestia cited unnamed military
officials as saying the missiles arrived
Friday, but did not say how many. The
Defense Ministry declined comment on
the report.
S-400s, Russias most advanced sur-
face-to-air missiles, have a range of
120-400 kilometers (75-250 miles).
The report comes amid rising ten-
sion between the U.S. and Russia over
Washingtons plans for a missile-shield
system in Europe, which Russia con-
tends threatens its own defenses.
CAIRO
Islamists back candidate
Thousands of Islamists marched to
Tahrir Square on Friday to support
Salafi presidential hopeful Hazem Abu
Ismail, whose candidacy is in jeopardy
over revelations this week that his
deceased mother was a U.S. citizen.
Protesters chanted against the ruling
military council, which they claim is
behind an ongoing "conspiracy" against
Ismail. "Down, down with military
rule; Abu Ismail is a red line," they
shouted.
The protesters said the Egyptian
army and the U.S want to force Ismail
out of the race over fears that if he
wins, Islamic law would deeply influen-
ce public life and Egypts foreign policy
could be dramatically changed.
ST. LOUIS
Search on for alligators
The 50 baby alligators were cute
little critters, each roughly the size of a
pencil, when a Colorado man sold
them out of a trailer in the parking lot
of the Kennett Eagles Club in southeast
Missouri.
Fourteen months later, Kennett au-
thorities are worried about whats
become of those animals.
Now theyve grown and theyre not
cute anymore, Humane Department
officer Tina Petix said. Theyre trying
to bite people.
So Petix is on a gator hunt, hoping to
convince any owners that small-town
Missouri life is neither good for the
reptile nor the people and pets it may
encounter.
So far, three alligators have been
located and removed. One woman was
keeping two as pets, often in a back-
yard next to a home where 3-year-old
twins live. The other nearly snapped
off its owners hand.

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. Emergency
crews searched the charred remains of a
Virginia Beach apartment complex Fri-
day after a fighter jet crashed into it just
after takeoff in what Navy officials called
a catastrophic mechanical malfunc-
tion.
Two Navy pilots a student and an
instructor from nearby Naval Air Station
Oceana ejected just before the jet ca-
reened into the apartment complex, de-
molishingsections of some buildings and
engulfing others in flames. Some 40
apartment units were damaged or de-
stroyed in the crash, but hours later no
fatalities had been reported.
Seven people, including both pilots,
were takentoa hospital. All except one of
the pilots were released by late after-
noon.
Virginia Beach Fire Department Capt.
TimRiley said more than two dozen resi-
dents remained unaccounted for, al-
though all but the six most damaged
apartments had been searched.
What Im praying for, what Im think-
ing about now is that we dont find any
more victims, Virginia Beach Mayor
Will Sessoms told reporters.
The two-seat F/A-18D Hornet had
dumped loads of fuel before crashing,
though it wasnt clear if that was because
of a malfunctionor anintentional maneu-
ver by the pilots, said Capt. Mark Weis-
gerber with U.S. Fleet Forces Command.
Bruce Nedelka, the Virginia Beach
EMS division chief, said witnesses saw
fuel being dumped from the jet before it
went down, and that fuel was found on
buildings and vehicles in the area.
The plane not having as much fuel on
board mitigated what could have been
an absolute massive, massive fireball and
fire, Nedelka said.
The crash happened in the Hampton
Roads area, which has a large concentra-
tion of military bases, including Naval
Station Norfolk, the largest naval base in
the world. Naval Air Station Oceana,
where the F/A-18D that crashed was as-
signed, is located in Virginia Beach.

REYHANLI, Turkey After
days of relentless shelling and
sniper attacks, thousands of Syr-
ian refugees streamed across
the border into Turkey with hor-
rific accounts Friday of mass
graves, massacres and burned-
out homes.
The latest reports of escalat-
ing violence fueled accusations
that President Bashar Assad is
rushing to stamp out as much of
the year-old uprising as he can
before a U.N.-brokered cease-fire
next week.
The trigger for the new waves
of refugees was an offensive in
Idlib province, which borders
Turkey and has become increas-
ingly rebellious against the As-
sad regime.
Activists reported about 100
dead in the vil-
lages of Tafta-
naz and Killi in
recent days.
A photo-
graph provided
to The Associ-
ated Press by a
Syrian activist
showed at least
a dozen corps-
es wrapped in
blankets in
what appeared
to be a mass
grave in Tafta-
naz. The AP
could not veri-
fy the authenticity of the pho-
tograph, but witnesses also de-
scribed a mass grave.
They destroyed the whole
village, a refugee who asked to
be identified by only one name,
Anas, told the AP on Friday af-
ter fleeing Killi. If he has to
kill, Bashar would even kill 1
million people. He doesnt
care.
Hikmet Saban, another Syrian
refugee who reached Turkey, de-
scribed the devastation in Tafta-
naz, located several miles out-
side the city of Idlib.
Helicopters and tanks are
bombarding continuously, he
told Turkeys state-run Anadolu
agency. Taftanaz has been
burnt to the ground for three
days. Activists posted video
they said showed a helicopter
gunship firing a missile at Tafta-
naz and a mosque hit by shell-
ing.
The escalating violence has
dimmed hopes that the fighting,
which the U.N. says has killed
more than 9,000 people, will
end anytime soon. The country
appears to be spiraling toward
civil war a fearsome devel-
opment that could bring a re-
gional conflagration.
A vital geopolitical linchpin,
Syria borders five other nations
and has close ties to Iran and
powerful militant groups, such
as Lebanons Hezbollah.

RED BUD, Ill. The tiny Illi-
nois farm town of Red Bud is the
kind of place with few strangers
and fewsecrets. Yet the communi-
ty of 3,700 has a lingering mystery
on its hands: Who bought the win-
ning Mega Millions lottery ticket,
and why hasnt the winner of the
world-record $646 million jackpot
come forward?
Though secrecy surrounds the
ticket soldat the MotoMart conve-
nience store, lottery officials note
its not unusual for winners to lay
low.
Its exactlywhat theKansas win-
ner of the March 30 Mega Millions
drawing decided to do. Kansas
Lottery Director Dennis Wilson
said the person came to the agen-
cys Topeka headquarters Friday
morning with an attorney and
some financial advisers. Wilson
said the person does not want to
be identified, even by gender
something Kansas law allows.
They obviously dont need the
publicity, Wilson said.
A third winning ticket was sold
in Maryland, and questions fester
about awomanclaimingtohaveit.
Mirlande Wilson, a McDonalds
worker, claimed to have one of the
winning Mega Millions tickets,
only to tell NBC News on Thurs-
day that she misplaced it.
For all of its promise, instant
riches come with a price, starting
with the immediate barrage of
calls from relatives and distant
friends eager for a handout. Never
mindtheneedtohirespecialists to
address tax implications and craft
a disciplined investment strategy
that couldavoidthefateof past lot-

ROME Pope Benedict XVI encour-
aged those threatened by unemployment
and other economic woes to drawcourage
andstrengthfromthesufferingof thecruci-
fied Jesus Christ as the pontiff presided
over a Good Friday candlelit Way of the
CrossprocessionattheancientColosseum.
Benedict, who turns 85
on April 16, didnt carry
the cross during the hour-
long procession itself. In-
stead, he listened intently
tomediations onsuffering
that he asked an elderly
Italian couple to compose
for the traditional ceremo-
ny. Then, as the final reflection was read
aloud, the pontiff was handed the slender,
lightweight wooden cross, which he held
steadily for a fewminutes.
Thousands of tourists, pilgrims and Ro-
mans jammed the boulevard outside the
Colosseumand the ancient Roman Forum
to pray with him on a mild, cloudy night
and listen to hymns.
Faithful clutched candles and prayer
books. A few held palms or olive branches
they had saved from Palm Sunday, which
opened solemn Holy Week ceremonies in
the Catholic Church.
The experience of suffering and of the
cross touches all mankind. It touches the
family, too, the pope said
ina brief homily at the end
of theprocession, whichhe
observed from an elevated
landing.
Dressed in red robes to
symbolize the blood shed
by Jesus, the pope added
that these days, too, the
situationof manyfamiliesismadeworseby
thethreat of unemployment andother neg-
ativeeffectsof theeconomiccrisis,suchas
worry about the future of young people.
But Benedict advisedfamilies tolookto
Christs cross. There we can find the cour-
age and strength to press on.

2008 to a high of 48 crashes in 2010, a 12-fold
increase, according to statistics from the Pennsyl-
vania Department of Transportation.
There was a total of 92 crashes from 2006 to
2010, the last year statistics were compiled, in-
cluding three fatalities during the five-year period.
Three people were killed in two crashes on the
same stretch of roadway in 2011, according to
Times Leader archives.
The latest occurred March 30, when an Ashley
woman died in a crash on Route 309 near South
Lehigh Street.
Fairview Township police and the Luzerne Coun-
ty Coroners Office said Sandra L. Heuer, 49, driv-
ing a GMC SUV, struck a guide rail in the north-
bound lanes and went down an embankment.
Heuers vehicle burst into flames at the bottom of
the embankment, police said.
After a Mountain Top man died in a fiery wreck
in May 2009, PennDOT studied the roadway mak-
ing safety modifications to a short stretch of Route
309 that included adding rumble strips in the
northbound, left passing lane and installing addi-
tional speed limit and warning signs.
Robert Wasilchak, PennDOT District 4-0 traffic
studies/safety supervisor, said in an email this
week there are no plans to lower the speed limit
and no additional safety modifications are consid-
ered to the roadway at this time.
State Rep. Gerald Mullery, D-Newport Town-
ship, said he does not have the authority to request
PennDOT to conduct a traffic study. Such a request
must come from officials in Fairview and Hanover
townships, Mullery said.
Hanover Township Manager John Sipper said
township commissioners will likely discuss the is-
sue and send a formal request to PennDOT.
Marhold said the roadway is a concern but most
of the crashes can be blamed on speeding.
People going down that hill doing 60, 70 mph,
is that PennDOTs fault? No, Marhold said. If
people abide to the speed limit, I dont think it is
an issue.
Despite the modifications made in 2009, crashes
have risen dramatically.
Out of the 92 wrecks from 2006 to 2010, 71
crashes were into embankments, guide rails and
other fixed objects.
HIGHWAY
BISMARCK, N.D. Republi-
can presidential candidate Rick
Santorums plan to use state con-
ventions to pull support
from Mitt Romney has
stalled in North Dakota,
where Romney has the
largest group of backers
among the states dele-
gates to the partys na-
tional convention.
Santorum won North
Dakotas Republican
presidential caucuses onMarch6.
But at last weekends state party
convention, Romney ended up
with the most supporters among
the states 28 delegates to the Re-
publican National Convention in
August.
Almost all the national dele-
gates interviewed by The Associ-
ated Press said they plan to abide
by the March 6 caucus results,
meaning Santorum would get to
keep his delegates. But his weak
showingat the state conventionis
a blow to his strategy to eat away
at Romneys formidable lead in
the race for delegates.
Santorum, a former Pennsylva-
nia senator, got 40 percent of the
vote in North
Dakotas cau-
cuses. Texas
Rep. Ron Paul
got 28 percent,
Romney got 24
percent and for-
mer House
Speaker Newt
Gingrich got 8
percent.
ThestateGOPinitiallysaiddel-
egates would be awarded in pro-
portion to the caucus results,
though the delegates would re-
mainfreetovotetheir conscience.
If delegates were awardedpropor-
tionally, Santorum would get 11,
Paul would get eight, Romney
would get seven and Gingrich
would get two.
But at the state convention,
Romney supporters successfully
elected the most delegates
even though the former Massa-
chusetts governor finished third
in the caucuses. In interviews
withtheAP,12delegatessaidthey
backed Romney, eight supported
Santorum, two favored Paul and
one preferred Gingrich. Two dele-
gates said they had no favorite.
Rounding out North Dakotas
28delegates arethreemembers of
the Republican National Commit-
tee who will automatically attend
the convention. Among them,
Sandy Boehler supports Romney
while Curly Haugland and Stan
Stein, the state GOP chairman,
are uncommitted.
The delegates said they plan to
meet prior tothe national conven-
tion to decide how they will vote
with the idea that they would div-
vy upvotes toreflect the results of
the caucuses.
Shane Goettle was elected as a
delegate at the state convention.
He supports Romney, but said he
would honor the results of the
March 6 caucuses, even if that
means voting for Santorumat the
national convention.
Im willing to support who I
must in order to try to achieve
that, Goettle said.
Gary Emineth, a Santorumdel-
egate and former North Dakota
Republican party chairman, said
he believed Santorum could still
gain a majority of the states dele-
gates.
My concernis Rickhas tohave
some big wins in the next 45
days, Emineth said Friday.
Emineth said Romney backers
are overstating the support for
Romney to try to shut down San-
torum. ...They want to force an
end to this process.
Romney leads the overall race
for delegates with 658, followed
by Santorum with 281, Gingrich
with135 and Paul with 51, accord-
ing to the AP count. It takes 1,144
delegates toclinchtheGOPnomi-
nation for president. Romney is
on pace to reach the threshold in
June.

WASHINGTON President Ba-
rack Obama is embracing an unlike-
ly group of political icons as he tries
to paint Mitt Romney as extreme:
Hes praising Republican presidents
from Abraham Lincoln to Dwight
Eisenhower and Ronald Reagan.
The Democratic president typi-
cally offers up GOP leaders of the
past as evidence of how both par-
ties can work together in Washing-
ton to pursue big ideas and rebuild
the economy. With Election Day
seven months away, Oba-
ma hopes to persuade vot-
ers that he, like his Repub-
lican predecessors, is a rea-
sonable moderate. At the
same time, hes casting
Romney as a candidate
who would embrace too-
conservative policies out
of step with most Amer-
icans and with their own party in
years past.
Obama invoked Reagans name
four times in a speech this week to
The Associated Press annual meet-
ing. He said the conservative hero,
never accused of being a tax-and-
spend socialist, still recognized the
need for tax increases as well as
spending cuts to tame federal def-
icits. Obamas verdict: He could
not get through a Republican pri-
mary today.
Painting Romney as an ideolog-
ical extremist might seem a some-
what curious strategy for Obama
given that the GOP nomination
front-runner has been considered
the moderate candidate in the Re-
publican primary field and has
struggled to consolidate support
among conservatives in the party.
But Obamas team hopes to define
Romney in a negative light before
the former Massachusetts governor
has a chance to pivot toward the
general election and emphasize his
past positions that could appeal to
moderates of both parties and the
independent voters who can decide
close races in polarized America.
Obama has cited Reagan more
than 40 times in speeches and pub-
lic events since 2009, according to
an analysis of public statements and
transcripts by the AP. But Eisen-
hower is Obamas favorite Repub-
lican for name-dropping the
president has referenced him more
than 90 times. Lincoln is right be-
hind with 80 mentions in public
comments covered by the tran-
scripts.
Among Democrats, Obama has
cited Bill Clinton more than 60
times and Franklin Delano Roose-
velt 45 times at public events. Jim-
my Carter? Four times.
Romney, taking the same stage as
Obama this week, a day later, told
editors and publishers that the pres-
ident was wrong. Reagan, he said,
would win handily in a primary,
frankly, in all the primaries, if he
were running today. Romney ac-
cused Obama of setting up a straw
man to distract us from his record.

SUGAR NOTCH James
Hoover of Pennsylvania Ameri-
can Water Company informed
Sugar Notch Borough Council
Wednesday night of plans to re-
place a 12-inch water main at
Main and Chestnut streets.
In addition, there will be a new
1,400 foot pipe, running through
the park and ending at the hy-
drant locatedat thetopof thehill.
The hydrant will also be re-
placed.
Hoover said the installation
will be done with the least
amount of damage possible, and
any damage to the area will be re-
paired by the company. Hoover
also said a couple of trees to the
left of the bike trail will needtobe
cut down, but they will be re-
placed with mulch. There will al-
so be a 6-inch-to-8-inch topsoil
approximately 10 feet wide,
spread on the area. As well, the
company will pave the road on
Main Street up to Chestnut. The
entire project should take less
than a month, and will begin
sometime within the next few
months.
Council approved a citizens
petition, submitted by John Pe-
chulis of 129 Hemlock St. to in-
stall twonoparkingsigns onboth
sides of his driveway. Pechulis
said he has been unable to move
his vehicle in the past due to driv-
ers not noticing the hidden drive-
way.
Pechulis also stated that he
will pay for and install the signs
himself nowthat he has been giv-
en permission to do so.

formedcouncil the sheriffs office
will not collect on liens for mu-
nicipalities on houses that were

cause it is a waste of time and

able properties.

WEST PITTSTON Borough
council Tuesday night approved
the issuance of a general obliga-
tion note for $1million to pay for
the York Avenue Sewer System
Project.
The note was sold by private
sale toFirst National Community
Bank, Dunmore, at a variable in-
terest rate not to exceed 6.25 per-
cent.
Borough officials said, howev-
er, the sewer project was denieda
grant of $1 million by the Com-
mercial Financial Association.
The borough also was denied a
PENNVEST loan of $1 million
since the project didnt have
enough environmental points
fromthe state Department of En-
vironmental Protection.
Council plans to resubmit for
the PENNVESTloan with a new,
more environmental plan of full
separationof the sewers.
Meanwhile, the borough is re-
searching short-term loans from
several bankssothesewer project
can be started while applying for
the PENNVESTloan.
According to Councilman
Brian Thornton, the project is
completely planned with the full
separation and is ready to go oth-
erwise. If theboroughdoesnot re-
ceive the PENNVEST loan, the
borough will research long-term
loans froma bank.
Council also passed a motion
awarding the York Avenue Sewer
System Project contract to low
bidder Ed Krasavage Construc-
tion Inc. in the amount of
$1,348,195.
In other business, residents ex-
pressed concerns about the over-

ed properties, sidewalk issues,

mings. Borough officials prom-

A federal appellate court has
upheld the convictions of two
former Shenandoah police offi-
cers charged with hindering an
investigation into the hate crime
beating death of an illegal immi-
grant.
Matthew Nestor, the former
police chief, and former officer
William Moyer were convicted
in January 2011 of charges relat-
ed to actions they took in investi-
gating the 2008 death of Luis Ra-
mirez.
Ramirez, who was in the Unit-
ed States illegally, was beaten to
death by a group of Shenandoah
teenagers. Federal authorities al-
leged Nestor and Moyer took ac-
tions to shield several of the sus-
pects from prosecution.
A federal jury convicted Nes-
tor of falsifying a police report,
while Moyer was convicted of ly-
ing to FBI agents. Nestor was
sentenced in June 2011 to 13
months in prison. Moyer was
sentenced to three months.
Bothmenappealedthe convic-
tions to the Third Circuit Court
of Appeals, arguing, in part,
there was insufficient evidence
to support the verdict.
Prosecutors had alleged Nes-
tor withheld the names of sever-
al of the suspected assailants in
an attempt to shield them from
charges. In his appeal, Nestor ar-
gued those omissions were not
criminal because there was no
proof he had a duty to disclose
that information.
The Third Circuit disagreed.
It borders onthe ridiculous to
assert that a chief of police
wouldnot have a duty todisclose
the identity of suspects in his of-
ficial police reports, the court
said.
In Moyers case, prosecutors
alleged Moyer falsely told FBI
agents that an eyewitness to the
Ramirez assault never identified
anyone involved in the attack.
The Third Circuit said evi-
dence at trial showed the wit-
ness, Francis Ney, did tell Moyer
he sawa bunchof teenagers beat-
ing Ramirez.
This evidence is more than
sufficient to support the jurys
finding that Moyer falsely stated
to the FBI that Ney did not iden-
tify the suspects, the court said.

LOS ANGELES Heidi Klum
moved to formally end her mar-
riage Friday fromsinger Seal a lit-
tle over two months after they

The supermodels divorce fil-
ing in a Los Angeles court draws
to a close a storybook romance
that included numerous testa-
ments to their affection for one
another, including renewing
their wedding vows annually and
throwing elaborate Halloween
costume parties.
The couple has four children
together, including Klums
daughter from a previous rela-
tionship. They had been married
for more than six and a half years
when they announced their sep-
aration in January, vowing to
keep their breakup amicable.
Klums filing, whichshe signed
Thursday, cites irreconcilable dif-
ferences. It provides no details
about their split, other than that
they entered into a financial
agreement after they were mar-
riedonhowtodivide their assets.

Corbetts education cuts
amount to child abuse
A
pparently Gov. Tom Corbetts no new
taxes pledge applies only to the nat-
ural gas industry.
It certainly does not apply to the people
of Pennsylvania who will see a property
tax increase as he guts state support for
K-12 and higher education. Tuition at state
universities will increase even more than
the 7 percent increase in 2011. Programs
will be slashed or eliminated at all levels.
My daughters received good educations
in Stroudsburg public schools. They both
graduated from great universities and are
well on their way to professional careers.
My fear is that Gov. Corbetts proposed
education budget will further decimate
public education.
I dont easily take offense at someone
who has a different opinion. I will happily
engage them in an argument that might
last for days. But I get angry when I see
children being abused. Nobody is lower in
my estimation than someone who preys on
the weak and vulnerable.
Thats what Gov. Corbetts proposed
education budget will do if its allowed to
stand. Regrettably Pennsylvanias constitu-
tion makes no provision for the recall of a
governor who fails to provide, as the docu-
ment states, for the maintenance and
support of a thorough and efficient system
of public education to serve the needs of
the Commonwealth.
Corbetts budget would lead to the clos-
ing of schools, elimination of programs,
drastic increase of class sizes and firing of
hundreds of young energetic teachers. The
children will be abused by Corbetts un-
conscionable proposal.
All we can do at this point is vote
against Republican legislators.

wants mayor to resign
W
ilkes-Barre Township Mayor Carl
Kuren apparently doesnt know if
theres a township fire chief now or
who is going to replace John Yuknavich,
the public works employee who resigned.
Another $110,000 wasted on a skeleton
fire department, plus bills being paid by
taxpayers under Mayor Kurens lack of
leadership.
Mayor Kuren has to resign and do it
now. Township residents are fed up.
For Wilkes-Barre Township, this is the
most embarrassing time in its history, and
most humiliating because of Mayor Ku-
rens latest election a victory which
should never have happened. John Red
Bryan was the best choice.
Mayor Kuren, step down. Enough is
enough.
Wilkes-Barre Township can come back
to prominence, but not with Mayor Kuren.
Wilkes-Barre Township will become a

FINALLY, PRESIDENT
Obama has spoken as a black
man.
It wasnt entirely on his
own initiative, but a question
he was asked about Trayvon
Martin left him no choice.
When he finally spoke, he began haltingly, as if
his words were taking him out on a high wire
with no net below. This was risky.
He said the safe things first: that the death of
17-year-old Martin at the hands of George
Zimmerman in a Florida suburb was a tragedy.
He said he sympathized with the parents, and
that various lawenforcement agencies should
diligently investigate the matter. Then he took
the plunge: If I had a son, Obama said, hed
look like Trayvon.
In other words, there but for the grace of
God goes my son, another young black man
likely to be put in harms way simply because
of his skin color.
Obama acknowledged not only that he is
black but that even the president isnt immune
to stereotypes that sometimes can turn deadly.
And its true. If Obama himself had been walk-
ing through a gated Florida community
dressed in a hoodie with his face hidden, its
not hard to imagine an overzealous neigh-
borhood watch captain reporting his presence
to the cops and trailing him as a suspicious-
looking black guy.
Identifying as black is risky for Obama al-
ways, but identifying with working-class blacks
the kind the country sees as criminal, or at
the very least potentially criminal is risky on
a whole other scale. That breaks the fantasy of
Obama as the magic black other, a man who
has little in common with young black men in
hoodies. For Obama to embrace Trayvon Mar-
tin linking him with his own children and
calling him this boy with fatherly concern
gives the racially anxious one more reason for
concern about the president.
The last time Obama commented publicly
on a case of possible racial profiling was after
Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. was
arrested trying to force open the jammed door
of his Cambridge home in 2009. After criticiz-
ing the arrest as stupid, the president got an
avalanche of criticismand wound up sitting
down for a beer in the White House garden
with Gates and the white cop who arrested
him. That meeting sent the wrong message,
implying that racial profiling is an individual
problem rather than a systemic one.
This time, Obama was speaking clearly to
the systemic. But his almost physical struggle
to strike the right tone was evidence of the
kind of double consciousness that W.E.B.
DuBois identified more than a century ago as
the peculiar burden black folks bear in trying
to be both black and American at the same
time. Watching Obama trying to resolve that
age-old conflict was truly historic and un-
expectedly poignant.
The first time I heard Obama speak on this
issue was in 2007, when he came to Los An-
geles Crenshawdistrict to hold a campaign
rally. One of the things he said that day was
that voters were rightly fed up with the fact
that too many people were in prison. He was
partly telling the blacks in the crowd what they
wanted to hear, but he was also giving voice to
a long-standing racial grievance rarely ex-
pressed by any elected officials, much less
presidential candidates.
Obama didnt quite go all the way he didnt
say too many people of color are in prison
but the implication was clear. He went further
in his Trayvon Martin remarks by implying
that a son of his who looked like Trayvon could
have met the same end.
He never used the word black. But his
grave tone and choice of words had the ring of
morality, stressing the idea of justice being
done, advising us all to do some soul-search-
ing. Most striking was howrattled the presi-
dent appeared to be; for the master of cool, this
truly seemed personal. It was a rare moment in
which the normally abstract issues of black
American injustice had a face, one of the most
famous in the world.
But it was only a moment. Obama will now
retreat from the fray and sincerely hope that he
wont be pressed to say anything else about
Trayvon Martin, not in a re-election year. But
the damage or the liberation has happened:
the truth about Obama the black man has been
revealed.

EGINNING IN Sep-
tember, cheating on
the SAT and ACT col-
lege entrance exams
will be a lot harder. Students
takingthetests will havehadto
submit their photos along with
their applications to qualify.
The photos will be printed on
the tests so that proctors and
administrators at testing sites
can check the identities of the
test takers.
The measures were institut-
ed after 20 people were arrest-
ed last year in a cheating scan-
dal in Nassau County, N.Y. It
was covered extensively by
CBS 60 Minutes and fea-
tured a test taker for hire who
sat in for dozens of students
over the years. He charged
thousands of dollars for his ser-
vices and insisted he wasnt
alone.
Those who can hire ringers
with fake IDs to take the test
for them are able to buy better
exam results. Consequently,
mediocre students get entry to
elite colleges and universities
while smarter, more academi-
cally prepared students have to
settle for less.
Cheating on exams has been
going on for years, but it took
the Nassau County district at-
torneys office to aggressively
prosecute these criminals.
This lighted a fire under ad-
ministrators at the College
Board to overhaul the security
system. Nowthere will be mul-
tiple checks of IDs before the
test, during the break and
when the tests are collected.
None of these enhanced mea-
sures will addto the cost of tak-
ing the SAT and ACT.
For the first time in years, it
will be much more difficult for
a cheater to buy a higher test
score. The only question left is
why did it take so long?

ECENT WEEKS
have brought sharply
different perspec-
tives on the state of
women in America today. A
new study on the status of
women and girls in California,
released by Mount St. Marys
College, concludes that wom-
en here earn degrees at a high-
er rate thanmen. Nearly a third
of the states busi-
nesses are solely
owned by women,
and 38 percent of its
elected representa-
tives are women.
Those are encourag-
ing, if still develop-
ing, indicators that
an equal society is
under construction.
And yet the same
survey produces re-
minders of persistent
inequity. Three per-
cent of Californias
corporate chief exec-
utives are women. Even as
more women than men gradu-
atefromlawschool, menvastly
outnumber women in the lead-
ership positions of law firms.
Women are twice as likely as
men to report being depressed
or anxious.
No wonder. For as Califor-
nians consider those insights
into the uneven progress of
women in this state, the na-
tional political campaigns
and the atmosphere around
them continue to supply jar-
ringly anachronistic attacks.
Republican presidential con-
tender Mitt Romney has
pledged to get rid of Planned
Parenthood. A number of
states have passed abusive
laws to discourage legal abor-
tions or to harass women who
obtain them. GOP presidential
hopefuls Rick Santorum and
Newt Gingrich have accused
the Obama admin-
istration of inter-
fering with reli-
gious liberty by in-
sisting that insur-
ance plans cover
contraception.
And that doesnt
even begin to
plumb the depths
of radio commen-
tator Rush Lim-
baugh.
The progress of
women in Ameri-
can society is one
of the great mark-
ers of this nations egalitarian-
ism, and though it remains in-
complete, it should inspire
pride in what has been accom-
plished as well as determina-
tion to complete the work. In-
stead, it is deliberately polar-
ized by those who would di-
vide in order to win.
Denigratingwomenfor com-
petitive advantage should be
the politics of yesterday; sadly,
they remain.

U.S. Rep. Tim Holden is not only
fighting off a strong challenge by a
fellow Democrat who has plenty of
money to fund a campaign, hes
also fending off attacks from politi-
cal action committees.
So far, two PACs have spent or
plan to spend hundreds of thou-
sands of dollars attacking Holden,
even though neither has referenced
Holdens opponent, Matt Cart-
wright, in their ads.
Holden, D-St. Clair, Schuylkill
County, noted that hell be on tele-
vision stations with campaign com-
mercials right up until the April 24
primary at a clip of $85,000 per
week. All that money comes from
his campaign committee. Home
mailings are not in the plan, even
though Cartwright, from Moosic,
has done both television and mail-
ings to get his message out. Some
of that message, Holden claimed,
has been either half truths or neg-
ative.
Cartwrights spokesman Shane
Seaver said he expected Holden to
hide from his record and try to
now say he votes the Democratic
way. That is not the case, Seaver
said.
Tim Holden is a Democrat in
name only, Seaver said. He noted
that advertisements the Cartwright
campaign is paying for, or those
supported by the PACs are not
negative campaigning.
What were doing is highlight-
ing votes hes taken as a member of
Congress that dont follow the
lines or the values of the Demo-
cratic Party, Seaver said.
One of the PACS is The Cam-
paign for Primary Accountability,
which targets incumbents of both
parties. This week it launched a
$70,000 ad buy against Holden, ac-
cusing him of cozying up to Wall
Street special interests.
What we have here is a case of
the rich helping the rich million-
aires coming to the rescue of fel-
low millionaire Matt Cartwright,
said Eric Nagy, Holdens campaign
spokesman.
Curtis W. Ellis, a spokesman for
the PAC, said the initiative against
Holden isnt necessarily pro-Cart-
wright but pro-choice for voters.
We believe people in Congress
should answer to the people not
the lobbyists, Ellis said on Friday.
Tim Holden has a lot of nerve
talking about outside money since
hes been doing that for years.
Another committee, Blue Amer-
ica PAC, is responsible for bill-
boards throughout the district that
target Holdens voting record on
Environmental Protection Agency
issues and contend hes pro-frack-
ing, the controversial practice of
horizontal drilling into shale to ex-
tract natural gas.
Holden defended his votes and
said when it comes to natural gas,
he believes it should be taxed and
I believe it should be regulated to
the greatest degree possible as the
coal and oil industries are.
Nagy said to his knowledge no
PACs are planning to run advertise-
ments attacking Cartwright or sup-
porting Holden. Instead, Holden
will do his own talking, his own
record defending and will allow po-
litical operatives throughout the
district to spread his message and
support his efforts.
Holden said he was grateful for
party officials throughout the dis-
trict that have lined up to support
him, even those in Lackawanna
County where Cartwright hails
from.
To date only one elected official,
state Rep. Phyllis Mundy, D-King-
ston, has come out in support of
Cartwright. The rest, from mayors
to state legislators to county party
committees have thrown their en-
dorsements into Holdens ring.
Seaver said thats to be expected:
As a 20-year incumbent, its a giv-
en that elected officials and the
rank and file establishment will fol-
low and support him. Seaver said.
He added that the Cartwright cam-
paign isnt looking to get the sup-
port of elected officials. Were look-
ing to get the votes from the peo-
ple that have been affected by a
lack of action in Washington.
Fellow Dem, PACs bedevil Holden
The incumbent 17th District
congressman is facing some
well-funded opposition.

gress for at least the next two years.
In order to win, hell first need to defeat challenger
and fellow Democrat Matthew Cartwright, a Moosic
attorney who makes up in the ability to self-fund his
campaignwhat he lacks inDemocratic Party establish-
ment support.
Hes a very wealthy guy, said Holden. Personal fi-
nancial reports filed by congressional challengers last
week show that Cartwright earned more than
$352,000fromhis familys lawfirmlast year, more than
double the salary a congressman earns annually.
That wealth is something Holden is hoping will hurt
more than help Cartwrights candidacy.
He certainly has no real roots or common interests
withthe hardworkingmenandwomenof the17thCon-
gressional District, Holdencharged, but he notedthat
Cartwrights fortune will be a major factor inhis ability
toget his message out tothe public andwill keepHold-
en on the defensive.
When you have a self-funder its always some-
thing on your mind. He has put a lot of his own money
in, Holden, of St. Clair, Schuylkill County said.
Holden, a 20-year House veteran, touted his senior-
ity as an asset that will enable him to push legislation
to benefit Northeastern Pennsylvania. From his early
experience, he said House members dont have much
clout their first several two-year terms in office.
While campaign finance reports are not due to be
made public until next week, Holden said he expects
his report will showheraised$740,000for this election
cycle, including $426,000 in the first quarter of this
year, andwill likely raise close to anadditional $60,000
this month.
Holdenpredicteda goodportionof Cartwrights war
chest will come from loans the attorney made to his
own campaign. Holden expects in the end to be out-
raised and outspent by Cartwright.
Shane Seaver, a campaign spokesman for Cart-
wright, said the figures are not final but Cartwright
will likely report similar numbers as Holden for the cy-
cle. He noted that Cartwright, 50, didnt enter the race
until Jan. 24sohis totals are for 60days, not13months.
Seaver said its likely that Cartwright will infuse his
campaign coffers with a personal loan but no totals
have been discussed.

Skrepenak will remain in
federal custody until June
12, when his sentence will be
complete. He must then
serve two years of super-
vised release, which is simi-
lar to probation in the state
prison system.
Burke said Skrepenaks
sentence was reduced by 94
days for good conduct
credits he earned while in-
carcerated. Federal prison-
ers accrue 54 days of good
conduct time per year, as-
suming they do not have any
serious disciplinary issues,
he said.
The halfway house pro-
gram is designed to help re-
integrate federal inmates in-
to the world by assisting
them in obtaining a job and/
or counseling services.
Participants are permitted
to leave the home for work
and to attend counseling and
medical appointments, but
must return afterward. They
can also petition for day pas-
ses to visit family.
Burke declined to identify
the halfway house at which
Skrepenak is housed, citing
BOP policy.
According to the depart-
ments website, there are
four halfway houses, operat-
ed by private contractors, lo-
cated in Pennsylvania: Min-
sec and The Kintock Group
in the Philadelphia area, Ca-
tholic Social Services in
Scranton and Renewal Inc. in
Pittsburgh.

fined to home would be just
fine with him.
I only talked with him for a
little bit while he was in the car
with his sister following his
release, said Mike Prociak, a
close friend and Skrepenaks
former campaign manager
when he ran for county commis-
sioner. Hes thrilled to be out
and to be closer to his family.
Prociak said Skrepenak, a
religious man, was looking
forward to seeing his children
and family over the Easter holi-
day.
He would love to be able to
spend some time with his chil-
dren and family, Prociak said.
He missed his kids a lot and
his family.
Prociak said Skrepenak is
proud of his children proud
that they are doing so well in
school and in sports.
Hes proud of all of their
accomplishments and he feels
great pain for not being able to
be there for them, Prociak
said.
Prociak said he visited Skre-
penak at the Federal Correction-
al Institution at Beckley, W.V. in
November. He said Skrepenak
looked good.
He lost a lot of weight and
he was in good spirits, Prociak
said. He still was not complete-
ly understanding of where he
was.
Prociak said he believes that
Skrepenak will be in a halfway
house and then under home
confinement.
All of this should be behind
him sometime in June, he said.
Come June, it will all be over.
Right now I think his focus is
on his children and his family.
Matt Skrepenak, Gregs broth-
er, came to the door of the
house Friday, but declined com-
ment for this story.
Former Luzerne County Com-
missioners Todd Vonderheid
and Steve Urban declined com-
ment.
Maryanne Petrilla, who also
served on the board of commis-
sioners with Skrepenak, said
she was happy that Skrepenak
was released.
Im happy for him and happy
for his children, Petrilla said.
Hes paid his debt. Im glad its
finally behind him.
Petrilla served in county
government with Skrepenak for
four years two years as con-
troller and two as commission-
er.
Luzerne County Controller
Walter Griffith said when Skre-
penak began serving his sen-
tence in September 2010, it
was a good thing for the coun-
ty. Griffith said Friday Skrepe-
nak should not have been re-
leased early.
He was in prison for be-
traying the public trust and he
should have served his full
sentence, Griffith said. Letting
him out early is the wrong
message to send to the public.
Skrepenak, 42, formerly of
Jenkins Township, pleaded
guilty to corrupt receipt of a
reward for official action. Prose-
cutors said he accepted a
$5,000 reduction in closing
costs on his home as a reward
for helping a contractor gain
acceptance into a tax forgive-
ness program.

Tyler was at the Catholic
Youth Center on South Wash-
ington Street playing basketball
with friends on Thursday. He
was walking with a friend, who
also lives on Hill Street, when
he was shot by a man police
believe drove away in an older
model burgundy or red Ford
Taurus.
The vehicle may have been
driven by another person.
Mark Soprano, CYC executive
director, said Tyler was a fixture
at the facility for a number of
years either playing basketball
or going to summer camp.
He was a super, super kid,
just a nice all-around kid from a
very nice family, Soprano said.
Were heartbroken for his fam-
ily and friends. Its a sad sit-
uation.
I want (police) to find out
who did this, Golden said.
(Police) told (Tylers friend) to
leave town, to go away for a
while and lay low because he
saw the guy who shot him so
theyre afraid he was going to
come back for him.
Willie Golden said he was try-
ing to cope with the loss of his
grandson.
I hope the police catch the
person who did this to Tyler,
Willie Golden said.
Willie Golden and his wife
were legal guardians of Tyler,
who played football for the
Heights Packers mini-football
club and was on the freshman
GAR basketball team this past
season.
He was into computers, he
was into video games, he didnt
bother anybody, Golden said.
He played basketball and kept
to himself. He didnt have a lot
of friends; he had a few he hung
out with.
The loss of a teenage boy left
the community in shock.
Fordy Galella, 84, who lives
across the street from the Gold-
ens home, said Tyler was such
a nice young man, she allowed
him and his close friends to use
the driveway to her house as a
basketball court.
They were here all the time,
every day playing basketball,
Galella said. Ive been here 57
years and there wasnt anything
wrong with Tyler. Theyre a
wonderful family.
A memorial with flowers and
candles, a balloon and a teddy
bear was set up where Tyler was
slain.
Tyler and his family frequent-
ly attended church at Mount
Zion Baptist Church on Hill
Street where he sang in the
choir.
I feel bad, Ive always had
kids here playing basketball,
Galella said. But they didnt
come here at all yesterday
(Thursday).
Luzerne County Acting Coro-
ner Bill Lisman said Friday an
autopsy by forensic pathologist
Dr. Gary Ross determined Tyler
suffered a gunshot wound to the
chest. The manner of death was
ruled a homicide, Lisman said.
There appeared to be no sur-
veillance cameras with the citys
Hawkeye Security System on
Hill Street. The cameras pro-
vide real-time video via a wire-
less connection to city police
headquarters that are recorded
to a compact disk.
Anyone with information
about the shooting is asked to
call Wilkes-Barre police at 570-
208-4200.

which would agree to lease PNC
Field in Moosic as part of the
sales term. The money from the
$14.6-million sale would cover
part of the costs of stadium re-
construction, which needs to
start soon in order to be com-
pleted in time for the 2013 sea-
son.
A press release issued by Lack-
awanna County director of com-
munications Joe DArienzo Fri-
day said the parties are on the
verge of an agreement.
We are very close to a deal,
Commissioner Jim Wansacz said
in the release. I want to stress
that no deal has been signed, but
we are extremely close.
OBrien said he is hopeful that
process, which includes public
meetings, will be completed by
mid to late next week.
The county and its lawyers ne-
gotiated with the Yankees and
Mandalay each day of the week,
but OBrien insisted Thursday
that the process would not be
driven by an arbitrary dead-
line.
Earlier estimates called for the
start of construction on March
20 to allow time to be prepared
for the opening of the 2013 sea-
son.
Later, International League
commissioner Randy Mobley
pointed to April 1 as a key date,
although he acknowledged that
as an estimate rather than a
strict deadline.
Hours before the Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre Yankees began the
entire 2012 season on the road
Thursday, OBrien did say that
as days passed, the potential for
increased costs was a factor.
Project mobilization
Fridays progress made both
sides comfortable enough that
the sale was imminent to agree
to cover costs of getting crews
ready if anything stopped the
sale at this point.
While attorneys for both sides
began preparing the documents
for the final sale, the construc-
tion manager was authorized to
begin project mobilization. That
process, according to the re-
lease, consists of mobilizing the
appropriate contractors to pre-
pare for demolition.
Demolition will not begin un-
til after the public review of the
proposed agreements material
terms and consideration by the
stadiumauthority, OBrien said.
Lackawanna County and SWB
Yankees have agreed to split the
estimated $150,000 in mobiliza-
tion costs if a final agreement is
not reached. If the agreement is
reached, the expenses are part of
the projects overall costs.
In the release, the county com-
missioners said they hope to
have the draft of the definitive
agreement ready for review by
the public and approval by the
Lackawanna County Multi-Pur-
pose Stadium Authority by late
next week.
We would take those steps in
an expedited nature, OBrien
said.
Public hearing times will be
listed on the countys Web site
and in local media outlets.
Local ownership concerns
Dr. Steven Vale, a South
Abington Township ophthalmol-
ogist who had expressed interest
in obtaining management rights
to the franchise last year, voiced
concern when hearing about pro-
gress of the potential sale Friday.
Vale said the loss of local own-
ership could be harmful in the
attempt to turn around declining
attendance from recent seasons.
I have a number of issues
with this, Vale said. Theyre
going to have trouble getting
people back in the stadium over
the long term if they dont have
local ownership involved.
Vale also said the removal of
an upper deck and reconstruct-
ion of what was originally
known as Lackawanna County
Stadium is totally unneces-
sary.
The whole objective basically
is tearing down the whole stadi-
um and keeping the field, Vale
said. The reason for ripping the
whole stadium down is to create
the promenade.
If the (luxury) boxes were
leaking, I think they could have
fixed that. The plan Ive seen
looks like a Class A stadium. It
does not look like a Triple-A sta-
dium housing the top team of
the New York Yankees.
On many levels, this is not a
good deal for Lackawanna Coun-
ty, Vale said. The New York
Yankees and Mandalay have
shown by their behavior that this
is going to be a long-term trou-
bled relationship.

We are very close to a deal. I want to stress that
no deal has been signed, but we are extremely

FRED COU-
PLES FLOATS
across Augusta
National on a
cloudof cool. At
52, he figures
hes in on a free
pass. Hes got
aches and pains as old as the guy
with whom he shares the top of
the leaderboard.
Better still, if Couples won the
Masters again, 20 years after the
first time he did it, he already
knows exactly what heddo next.
Youd never see me again, he
chuckled. It wouldbe a walkoff.
Dont laugh. Couples green
jacket in 1992 was almost as im-
probable. Not because he wasnt
capable of sublime golf back then
or now, for that matter but
becauseof asingleshotthatsetup
the win by defying the laws of
gravity.
In the final round, Couples hit
an 8-iron into the par-3 12th and
tucked his chin into his chest as
the shot rode a breeze and began
drifting to the right. The ball hit
the bank in front of the green and
began sliding down the slippery
slope toward Raes Creek and the
watery grave that claimed every
similar shot all weekend. Some-
how, his stopped, nestled up
against afewblades of grass. Cou-
ples chipped up to save par and
wound up winning by two. He
called it the biggest break of my
life.
Yet Couples seemed almost as
mystified by what happened Fri-
day, when he fought off two early
bogeys with seven birdies and
cardeda 67. That left himat 5-un-
der for the tournament, tied with
35-year-oldJasonDufner.
I stand out there and say,
What thehell? alot,helaughed.
Or What do I have to lose here?
Or Go for the flag onthis shot.
But the higher he climbed up
the leaderboard, the more cau-
tious Couples became or at
least what passes as cautious for
him.
Once you really get cruising
around, he added, then it be-
comes, Play a smart shot.
Tops at scoringaverage
Hes played hundreds of those
over the course of 200 rounds
here, enough to post 10 career
top-10 finishes at the Masters but
thats not all. Amoment before he
walked into the interview room,
someone reminded Couples he
ownedthebest scoringaverageof
anyone with 100 rounds or more
at thetournament, includingJack
Nicklaus, whowonheresixtimes.
Nicklaus was 46whenhe wonthe
last time, in 1986, and Couples
was onjust his fourthgo-round.
I said, Well, I dont know the
last year he played, but his scores
kept going up a little bit andmine
will be doing that shortly. But to-
day, headded, brightening, was
not one of those days.
Its only when Couple doffs his
ballcap to reveal a full head of
shaggy gray hair, or talks about

ically troublesome back, that you

ing into the weekend, then faded
with 72-73 and wound up tied for

was second heading into the final
round and shot 71, finishing in a
tie for third.

MINNEAPOLIS Gary Tin-
sley, a Minnesota linebacker who
had overcome some personal
problems early in his Gophers ca-
reer and was set to earn his de-
gree in just a few weeks, was
found dead in his campus apart-
ment Friday
morning, uni-
versity officials
said. He was 22.
Tinsley was
found unre-
sponsive in his
apartment at
Roy Wilkins
Hall on the
Minneapolis
campus, university Police Chief
Greg Hestness said.
The cause of death wasnt im-
mediately released as authorities
awaited autopsy results from the
medical examiner. Hestness said
police were not aware of any pre-
existing medical conditions that
may have caused Tinsleys death.
Its a very, very sad day for our
football program and for our
young men, an emotional coach
Jerry Kill said. We lost one of
ours today in Gary Tinsley, who I
know is in a good place.
Tinsley watched a movie with
some teammates in his room on
Thursday night and went to bed
around 11 p.m., a team spokes-
man said. One of his roommates

WILKES-BARRE TWP. It
took almost 54 minutes and 17
power plays to determine a win-
ner in Fridays matchup between
the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Pen-
guins and Hershey Bears.
Ben Streets power play goal at
13:58 of the third period gave the
Penguins a 4-2 win over the
Bears, a teamtheywill faceinthe
opening round of the playoffs.
The win gives the Penguins a
four-point lead over Hershey for
fourth place in the division and
home ice in the playoffs. It also
improves the Penguins to 7-3-0-2
against the
Bears this sea-
son.
Fridays
matchup saw19
power plays and
plenty of physi-
cal play, particu-
larly from the
Penguins fourth
line of Zach Sill,
Ryan Craig and
Brandon DeFa-
zio.
Still, if the
game sent a
message for the
upcoming play-
off series, it was one that both
teams already knew.
They know its going to be
hard, Sill said. I think we reit-
erated what they already knew
and the same with us. Theyre a
good team. We might have a lit-
tle bit more confidence going in-
to the playoffs against them, but
we still know how dangerous
they are.
The Penguins struck first
when Geoff Walker tipped a Ja-
son Williams slapshot past Dany
Sabourin for a power play goal
with a minute remaining in the
first period.
Things got tense in the early
stages of the secondperiodwhen
Joey Mormina leveled Ryan Po-
tulny Hersheys leading goal
scorer -- as he skated the puck
across the blueline. Mormina
caught Potulny with his head
down and Potulny left the game
temporarily.
It was a good hockey hit.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.
Carlos Pena thrust his arms in
the air, rounded first base and
headed right into a wild cele-
bration in the middle of the
Tropicana Field infield.
Pena defied long odds against
CC Sabathia and did it again
against Mariano Rivera, lifting
the Tampa Bay Rays to a thrill-
ing 7-6 season-opening victory
over the New York Yankees on
Friday.
Pena hit an early grand slam
off Sabathia, then completed a
ninth-inning comeback with an
RBI single off Rivera.
Pena finished 3 for 5 with five
RBIs in his return to the Rays
after a year with the Chicago
Cubs. All that after a spring in
which he hit .107 and struggled
so much that manager Joe Mad-
don initially penciled him into
the No. 7 spot in the batting or-
der for the opener.
Maddon had a change of
heart Friday, shifting the slug-
ger into the sixth spot.
Your heart starts racing in
that moment and you try to
control yourself as much as pos-
sible, Pena said. I tried to
slow myself down and breathe
and take it one pitch at a time,
as easy as you can possibly
make it. Instead of building the
situation up you try to bring it
down.
Rivera (0-1) had been 60 of 61
in save chances against the
Rays. But after Desmond Jen-
nings opened the ninth with a
single against baseballs career
saves leader, Ben Zobrist tri-
pled home the tying run.
The 42-year-old Yankees clos-
er intentionally walked the next
two batters to load the bases
and struck out Sean Rodriguez.
Pena, who was 0 for 11 lifetime
against Rivera, won it by driv-
ing a 1-2 pitch off the base of the
wall in left-center field for his
fifth RBI of the game.
Pena hit his slam in the first.
Evan Longoria hit a solo homer
in the Rays third, and it stayed
6-5 until the ninth.
Hes the greatest closer in

Super cardthis evening, headlinedbyanOpenPaceandOpenTrot.
In that tenth race $25,000 Open Pace I am going with the New York
invader Wayne The Lefty. The five-year old Allamerican Ingot geld-
ing has been sharp of late, hitting the board in five of his last seven
starts. The most impressive effort of themall came in his most recent
effort, back on March 17. In that Open Pace, at Yonkers, the Lester
Gelardi trained pacer got a dream pocket journey around the track
and fired a :27.1last quarter mile to garner the victory in a career best
mile of 1:51.3. The Tyler Buter driver pacer is coming into this race in
great form and is worthy of top billing.
The co-feature $25,000 Open Trot brings back the 2010 Breeders
Crown champion Break The Bank K. Trained by Rich Gillock, the
five-year oldsonof Revenue Sis returningtothe trackwhere his most
impressive victory to date took place. Back onthat crisp October eve-
ning, at the Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs, Break The Bank K
scored a big upset over Wishing Stone and Hambletonian winner
Lucky Chucky in a fast 1:52.2. He hasnt raced much since then, but I
look for this millionaire trotter to flash some of that stout backclass
and score a win going away.

ARLINGTON, Texas
Colby Lewis struck out nine in
his first opening day start, Ian
Kinsler homered and the two-
time defending American
League champion Texas Rang-
ers began the season with a
3-2 victory over the Chicago
White Sox on Friday.
Kinsler, unable to reach a
deal on a new long-term con-
tract before his self-imposed
deadline of opening day to end
negotiations, had a leadoff
double in the first and scored
on a sacrifice fly by Josh Ha-
milton. Kinsler hit a solo
homer in the third.
The loss spoiled the man-
agerial debut of Robin Ventu-
ra, who before the game had
his first meeting with Nolan
Ryan since charging the
mound 19 seasons earlier
against the Hall of Fame pitch-
er. Ryan is now president,
CEO and part-owner of the
Rangers.
It was a picture-perfect day
75 degrees under blue skies
for the Rangers opener,
which came just more than
five months after they twice
came within one strike of a
World Series championship
before losing in seven games
to St. Louis.
Lewis (1-0) walked only one
over six innings, throwing 70
of 100 pitches for strikes. The
only other Rangers pitcher
with nine strikeouts in a sea-
son opener was Ryan in 1991.
Alexi Ogando, an All-Star
and 13-game winner as a start-
er last season, is back in the
bullpen and struck out all
three batters in faced in the
seventh after Texas regained
the lead and Lewis left.
New Rangers closer Joe
Nathan worked a perfect ninth
for the save.
Adam Dunn homered lead-
ing off the sixth for the White
Sox, tying a major league
record with his eighth opening
day home run when he pulled
a ball into the second deck of
seats in right field. Frank Rob-
inson and Ken Griffey Jr. are
the only other major leaguers
who have eight homers in
openers.
Orioles 4, Twins 2
BALTIMORE Jake Arrie-
ta pitched seven scoreless
innings, Nick Markakis home-
red and drove in three runs,
and the Baltimore Orioles
marked the 20th anniversary
of the opening of Camden
Yards by defeating the Minne-
sota Twins.
Making his first opening day
start, Arrieta (1-0) allowed two
hits, struck out four and walk-
ed two in a 97-pitch perform-
ance reminiscent of the gem
that Rick Sutcliffe tossed
against the Cleveland Indians
in the inaugural opener at the
ballpark.
Sutcliffe, who threw out the
ceremonial first pitch Friday,
christened Camden Yards by
pitching a five-hit shutout on
April 6, 1992.
The only two hits against
Arrieta came in the fourth.

MILWAUKEE David
Freese hit a two-run drive for
one of four St. Louis homers
off Yovani Gallardo, and the
Cardinals spoiled the Mil-
waukee Brewers opener with
an 11-5 victory on Friday.
Yadier Molina, Carlos Bel-
tran and Matt Holliday also
connected for the Cardinals,
who are in Milwaukee for a
three-game series after open-
ing with a victory over the
Marlins in Miami on Wednes-
day.
Gallardo (0-1) lasted only 3
2
3
innings, giving up seven hits
and six runs with five walks
and three strikeouts. Manager
Ron Roenicke gave Gallardo
the opening-day start ahead of
Zack Greinke, despite Gallar-
dos career 1-7 record against
the Cardinals with a 5.66 ERA
coming into Fridays game.
Diamondbacks 5, Giants 4
PHOENIX Chris Young
and Paul Goldschmidt hit
first-inning home runs off Tim
Lincecum and the Arizona
Diamondbacks opened defense
of their NL West title with a
victory over the San Francisco
Giants.
Ryan Roberts two-run dou-
ble broke a sixth-inning tie as
Arizona defeated Lincecum
(0-1) for the fourth time in a
row.
Ian Kennedy (1-0) allowed
three runs on nine hits in 6
2
3
innings to beat the Giants for
the fourth straight decision.
Pablo Sandovals RBI double
with two outs in the ninth
pulled the Giants within a run.
But J.J. Putz got Buster Posey
on a grounder to earn the save.
Rockies 5, Astros 3
HOUSTON Pinch runner
Eric Young scored the go-
ahead run on an error in the
eighth inning and Troy Tulo-
witzki homered in the ninth to
lift the Colorado Rockies to a
win over the error-prone Hous-
ton Astros.
The game was tied 3-3 when
Ramon Hernandez singled in
the eighth before being re-
placed by Young. Young stole
second base and scored on an
error by catcher Jason Castro,
one of four miscues by the
Astros.

Valley Iron Pigs on Friday.
The Yankees led 4-2 heading
into the bottom of the sixth in-

tances worked five innings of
four-hit ball, striking out six and
walking just one.
The Iron Pigs (2-0) found re-
liever Pat Venditte more to their
liking, touching him for three
runs on three hits in the sixth.
The big hit was a bases-loaded
double toright by LehighValleys
Cody Overbeck to drive in two.
John Suomi homered leading
off the seventh
inning for the
Iron Pigs to pro-
vide an insur-
ance run against
Venditte (0-1),
who took the
loss.
First baseman
Pearce doubled and scored in the
first inning on a single by Cust to
give the Yankees (0-2) an early
lead.
With two out in the third, they
struck again. First, center fielder
Chris Dickerson cracked a
ground-rule double. Pearce fol-
lowed with a single, then stole
second. Cust reached on a throw-
ing error by Iron Pigs second
baseman Kevin Frandsen, allow-
ing both runs to score for a 3-0
Yankees lead.

the history of the game andwe all
know that, Pena said of Rivera.
He has that illusion in his ball.
You swing where the ball is at
and its not there anymore. He
has perplexed hitters throughout
his career. Hes the best closer in
baseball, and thats for a reason.
Riveras rough outing was the
latest in a recent series of bad
outings by big league closers.
Jose Valverde, Chris Perez and
Bostons Alfredo Aceves all
struggled a day earlier.
My fault. I felt good. I dont
make excuses, Rivera, whose
other blown save against the
Rays came in 2005. I just left the
ball up, he said.
Rivera, beginning his 18th ma-
jor league season, had converted
27 consecutive opportunities
against the Rays.
When you see him blow one,
its shocking. Its going to hap-
pen. It happened. Its baseball,
Yankees manager Joe Girardi
said. He got a couple pitches up.
He got one up to Jennings, and
he got one up to Zobrist. That
kind of led to the inning.
Sabathia yielded both of Tam-
pa Bays homers, but later
worked out of a couple of tight
spots to cling to the lead the de-
fending AL East champions took
on newcomer Raul Ibanezs
three-run homer in the third.
Reliever David Robertson es-
caped a jam in the eighth inning,
striking out Stephen Vogt, Jose
Molina and Matt Joyce with run-
ners at the corners, seemingly
setting up Rivera to close it out.
Fernando Rodney (1-0) struck
out one in a perfect ninth to earn
the win in his debut for Tampa
Bay.
The Rays, whove made the
playoffs three of the past four
years, raised a 2011 AL wild-card
banner to the left-field catwalk
before the game and Pena
brought the sellout crowd of
34,078 to its feet again in the bot-
tomof the first whenhe sent a 3-2
pitch into the right-field stands
for his eighth career grand slam.
Tampa Bays career home run
leader entered the day 4 for 35
with two homers and 19 strike-
outs lifetime against Sabathia,
who walkedRodriguez intention-
ally just the fourth intentional
pass of the young shortstops ca-
reer to get to Pena.
It was the right move. If I
make the pitches, then we have
nothing to talk about, Sabathia
said.

Along with his twin brother, Grzech
managed to qualify for states in spite
of Crestwoods swimming program
being cut prior to the season. He

back at the PIAA Class 2A champion-
ships. He placed third place in two
events at districts.
Josh Grzech

two events, he placed 15th in the 100
butterfly. He stood 19th in the 100 free.
Grzech claimed second in the 100
butterfly and the 100 free at districts.
For a team relatively low on
numbers, the Dallas boys swim-
ming team came into this years
postseason knowing it needed
its entire fleet to perform well
most importantly, its all-impor-
tant relay teams.
The Mountaineers success
this season was contingent on
the four boys that comprisedthe
squad. Dallas senior member
and first relay leg swimmer Jake
Chielli carried the team to its
third consecutive third District
2 Class 2A title.
Weeks later, Chiellis perform-
ance at the PIAA champion-
ships in Lewisburg supported
his case for The Times Leader
Boys Swimmer of the Year.
Chielli led the 200 and 400
free relay teams along with ju-
niors Brian Stepniak, Jack Ma-
tusiak and Marcus Wagner to
sixth-place medals at the state
meet.
We all knew we had to drop
our times inthe relay if we want-
ed to make finals, Chielli said.
We were all able to pull it to-
gether, come through as a team
and drop the time as needed.
He qualified for the finals for
the third consecutive year in the
50 free, finishing 10th with a
time of 21.78 seconds.
Yeah I was happy with my
time, he said. Id been looking
to get into the 21s all season. I
finally got there at districts and
states.
Transferring from Wyoming
Seminary after his freshman
season, he leaves the Mountain-
eers as one of the programs
most accomplished natators. In
his three years at Dallas, he
grabbed four state medals and
swam in eight state finals races.
He qualifiedfor finals inall eight
of his PIAA appearances.
On March 3-4, Chielli swam
to district championships in the
two free relays andthe 50 free. It
marked third consecutive years
in which he topped the 50 free
event.
Chielli said he plans on swim-
ming collegiately but is unde-
cided on his school. He noted
LaSalle, Scranton, Widener and
Kings have all expressed inter-
est in him.
He credits the sport and his
coaching staff for developing
the work ethic that proved suc-
cessful for himbothinandout of
the pool.
Swimming teaches you dedi-
cation, hard work. It really just
shows you much hard work can
pay off in the end. Thats what I
take out of this whole experi-
ence.

One of the neat things about
this tournament is the 10-shot
rule, Woods said, referring to the
rule that brings all players within
10 of the lead back for the week-
end. Anyonecanwinthegolf tour-
nament who makes the cut. Guys
have won this from five, six down
going into the back nine. I just
need to be solid, cut that deficit
down and get off to a quick start
like I did last year on Sunday.
Couples got off to a quick start
Friday, shooting a 3-under 33 on
thefront ninetomoveintoconten-
tion. Two years ago, he opened
with a 66 and became the oldest
player to hold the outright lead af-
ter the first roundat Augusta. Last
year, he shot 68 on Friday to push
his way into the top10.
This time, he heads into the
weekendwitha chance tobecome
the oldest major winner. Hes six
yearsolderthanJackNicklauswas
when he won his sixth Masters on
that unforgettable Sundayin1986.
Twentyplayers inthefieldwerent
even born when Couples played
his first Masters back in1983.
Still, hes hardly the only big
name near the top.
Sergio Garcia shot a 4-under 68
to finish one shot back, tied with
Rory McIlroy, who shot 69, and
Bubba Watson, who shot 71.
I know Im playing well, said
McIlroy, who overcame last years
final-roundcollapseat theMasters
and won the U.S. Open two
months later. The recent results
show that. I just wanted to come
here and play, put myself in posi-
tion to win another tournament,
another major.
Also in the tie at 4 under were
2010 British Open champion
Louis Oosthuizen and Lee West-
wood. Westwood spent most of
the day in the lead, but three-put-
ted on the18th green for a double-
bogey to close his day at 1-over 73
and 4 under for the tournament.
The double at the last (hole)
wasadisappointingwaytofinish,
Westwoodsaid. But if youget out
of position slightly on this course,
it can punish you.
Couples, a winner on the senior
tour two weeks ago, often ambles
around these grounds, twirling a
golf club, looking as if hes playing
a leisurely weekend round instead
of grinding through one of golfs
toughest tests. On this day, his
106th competitive round at the
course, all thescenes lookedfamil-
iar: Freddiebendingat thewaist to
stretch, reaching his handinto the
back of his waistband to rub his
aching back, squinting into the
sunlight, wincingattheoccasional
twinge of pain.
What would it take? he said.
A lot more birdies, a lot more
madeputts. Maybeapainkiller or
two.
Heteedoff intoafairwaybunker
on No. 3, but spun the approach
backto5feet andjammedtheputt
home for birdie No. 1. He was pin
high and 4 feet away on No. 4, and
suddenly, Couples was doing
morethanplayingceremonial golf
something he has always des-
perately wanted to avoid.
He hit a hybrid into the 15th
green to 20 feet and barely missed
the eagle putt. Whenhe rolledina
20-footeron16toget to5under, he
pumped his fist and yelled Bam.
Heclosedit out bysalvagingpar
on No. 18 with a chip fromin front
of thegreenthat stopped, checked
up, spun backward to about 2 feet
for a stress-free putt. He doffedhis
cap, raised both fists and smiled
that wide smile, knowing hell be
sleeping in late Saturday and
sleeping on the lead.

PITTSBURGH Flying
sticks. Pointed fingers. Post-
game putdowns. And that was
just the coaches.
What can the Pittsburgh Pen-
guins and Philadelphia Flyers
possibly do in Saturdays regu-
lar-season finale to top their last
meeting, a 6-4Flyers winat Con-
sol Energy Center this week
that served as a previewof what
will be a contentious first-round
playoff series?
The smart answer might be
nothing.
For all the bad blood between
the two rivals, each knows
theres too much to risk and lit-
tle to gain if they spend 60 min-
utes (or more) trying to rattle
the other. The Penguins have al-
ready clinched the fourth seed
in the Eastern Conference and
will have home ice advantage
against the fifth-seeded Flyers
when the playoffs begin next
week.
Neither teamwants to risk in-
jury to a star player or the threat
of discipline if things get out of
hand.
No wonder Philadelphia cen-
ter Claude Giroux thinks its go-
ing to be weird knowing the
game doesnt mean anything.
Unlike their last meeting,
which included a last-minute
brawl, Philadelphia coach Peter
Laviolette calling Pittsburgh
counterpart Dan Bylsma gut-
less and led NBC Sports ana-
lyst Mike Milbury to label Pen-
guins star Sidney Crosby a
punk and a goody two-shoes
while appearing on a Philadel-
phia radio station.
Milbury later apologized.
Dont expect the same kind of
backtracking from Philadelphia
assistant coach Craig Berube,
who described Crosby and
teammate Evgeni Malkin as the
dirtiest players on their team.
The Penguins have tried to
take the trash-talking in stride.
Rangers coach John
Tortorella fined $20,000
NEW YORK New York
Rangers coach John Tortorella
was fined $20,000 by the NHL
on Friday for his comments fol-
lowing the teams 5-2 loss in
Pittsburgh on Thursday night.
Tortorella called the Pen-
guins one of the most arrogant
organizations in the league
during a profanity-laden tirade
that focused on Pittsburgh de-
fenseman Brooks Orpiks knee-
to-knee hit on Derek Stepan.
Its a cheap, dirty hit. I won-
der what wouldhappenif we did
it totheir twowhiningstars over
there,
Tortorella said, referring to
Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Mal-
kin. I wonder what would hap-
pen. So Im anxious to see what
happens with the league with
this. Just not respect amongst
players. None. Its sickening.
Orpik was given a major pen-
alty anda game misconduct, but
wasnt fined or suspended.
They whine about this stuff
all of the time, and look what
happens? Tortorella said. Its
ridiculous. But theyll whine
about something else over
there, wont they?
Coyotes 4, Blues 1
ST. LOUIS Mike Smith
made 31 saves in another stingy
start, helping the Phoenix
Coyotes take the Pacific Divi-
sion lead with a 4-1 victory over

Blues on Friday night.

Shane Doan and Mikkel Boedk-

Uncivil war has little
meaning this time
Hynes. Like any other hit.
DeFazio made it 2-0 in the sec-
ond period when he dug the puck
out of thecorner andbackhanded
a shot for his 10th goal of the sea-
son.
Hershey answered back with a
pair of goals fromKyle Greentree
less than a minute apart, includ-
ing a power play tally, to even
things up at 2.
We had everything going for
us, they call a timeout and score
the goals, Hynes said of the peri-
od. We just let down a little bit.
The period couldve been
worse if it wasnt for the Penguins
penalty killers, who prevented
Hershey from scoring during
three consecutive power plays
that spanned the last five min-
utes.
Streets goal, his team-leading
27th, came during a third period
power play when he deflected a
Mormina shot from the point
past Sabourintomake it 3-2. Nick
Petersen added an empty-net
goal with 16 seconds left to seal
the win.
Hynes praised the play of his
fourth line, who were physical
throughout and stayed out of the
box.
Sill saidthat style is the perfect
way to get under a foes skin.
Its frustrating for the other
team knowing that every time
they touchthe puck theyre going
to have to have their head up, he
said. Its not going to be dirty,
but that in-your-face hockey is
frustrating to play against.
Notes
Fridays win was the100th of
Hynes career a milestone he
achieved in less than two sea-
sons. Its a direct result of having
excellent players that are com-
mitted and an organization that
gives you great support, he said.
But it doesnt get done without
the players.

they received.

I think we reiterated
what they already knew
and the same with us.
Theyre a good team. We
might have a little bit
more confidence going
into the playoffs against
them, but we still know
how dangerous they
are.
Penguins Zach Sill
On playing Bears in playoffs
excuse to play hooky.
Basically, I feel like I played
enough, he said. I dont need to
wear myself out.
Eveninhis prime, Couples was
that way. His swing is the same,
too, long and graceful, with no
wasted motion. He doesnt hit it
as far as he used to the nick-
name Boom Boom fell away
years ago but still plenty far.
Then theres the temperament.
Couples reminds rivals of the guy
who just put down a cocktail on
the patio, picked up his clubs and
wandered into the middle of the
tournament.
Hes amazing, said Sergio
Garcia, whos part of a five-some
trailing Couples and 35-year-old
Jason Dufner by a stroke. He al-
ways manages todoit somehow.
Yet the only thing hard to be-
lieveisthatCoupleswill beableto
play the last tworounds as well as
he did the first two. The prospect
hardly rattles him.
I dont feel too much stress.
Now, obviously theres stress out
there andImnot what Imget-
ting at is, when youre playing

You cant say its your favorite

Alot of the tournaments I play
in, at my age nownot 20 years
ago they are just golf tourna-
ments. Its another week of golf.
And for me to be tied at this mo-
ment, its a little shocking, but I
played a really good round of golf
today.
I have to do that tomorrow,

LITKE
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. Mo-
ments after their motorcycle ac-
cident, Bobby Petrino and a fe-
male employee told a passer-by
not to call 911, then got a ride
back to Fayetteville where the Ar-
kansas football coach was met by
a state trooper who provides his
personal security during the sea-
son.
New details of the immediate
aftermath of Petrinos crash were
ina 911call releasedFriday by the
state police. The passer-by, Larry
Hendren, describes coming upon
the accident scene Sunday eve-
ningjust after PetrinoandJessica
Dorrell were getting up out of
the ditch. He said Petrino was
walking, but it looked like his
face was bleeding quite a lot.
The rider and the passenger
of the motorcycle declined us to
call 911, Hendren told a dis-
patcher. They got into a vehicle
and headed toward the hospital.
Petrino was taken to a Fayette-
ville intersection by another pas-
ser-by. There, Dorrell left in her
owncar while Petrinowas met by
Capt. Lance King, his personal
security guardduring the season.
King took Petrino to a hospital,
where he was treated for broken
ribs and a cracked neck vertebra.
State police said Friday they
planned to question the trooper,
looking for any information
Captain King may have learned
about thecrash duringconversa-
tions with Petrino.
Whiletheinquiries havenodi-
rect correlation to the investiga-
tion of the motor vehicle crash,
the questions are legitimate and
worthy of answers, state police
spokesman Bill Sadler said. The
developments came as Arkansas
athletic director Jeff Long con-
sidered the future of the football
coach, whose salary averages
more than $3.5 million.
Long appears to have every-
thing he needs to fire Petrino, but
the question now is whether he
will actually get rid of Petrino,
who failed to mention having
Dorrell with him during the acci-
dent and admitted having a pre-
vious inappropriate relation-
ship.
Petrino was not cited by state
police, and was described by
troopers as cooperative after the
accident on a rural road 20 miles
outside Fayetteville.
What has him in trouble is his
attempt to anyone from finding
out he was riding with Dorrell, a
25-year-old former Arkansas vol-
leyball player who he hired just
last week. A clause in Petrinos
contract gives Long the right to
suspend or fire the 51-year-old
coach for conduct that negativ-
ely or adversely affects the repu-
tation of the (universitys) athlet-
ics programs in any way.
That language gives Long
plenty of leeway to punish Petri-
no, who is on indefinite paid
leave after reviving Arkansas
football program over four sea-
sons and, until now, steering
clear of off-field blemishes.

Petrino Long
was brushing his teeth Friday
morning when he heard Tin-
sleys alarm sounding without
being turned off. When the
teammate went to check, he
found Tinsley wasnt breathing.
Emergency officials arrived
on the scene minutes after a 911
call, but were not able toresusci-
tate him. Tinsley was pro-
nounced dead at the scene
about 8:15 a.m., Hestness said.
Police did not find any signs of
foul play, crime or injuries when
they arrived, but are treating it
as a suspicious death because
the death of a young athlete is
out of the ordinary, Hestness
said.
Tinsley was recruited by for-
mer coach Tim Brewster from
First Coast High School in Jack-
sonville, Fla. An athletic line-
backer with a fiery demeanor,
Tinsley ran into several prob-
lems off the field early in his
time at Minnesota. He was ar-
rested after participating in a
brawl near campus during his
sophomore season and was sus-
pended from the team in 2010
on suspicion of fleeing police
and operating a motorized
scooter while intoxicated.
But thosearoundtheprogram
had credited Tinsley with ma-
turing over his final two years in
school, and he emerged as a
team leader who was set to get
his degree in business market-
ing education at commence-
ment this spring. School offi-
cials said he will be awarded his
diploma posthumously at a cer-
emony next month.
Obviously I dont knowall of
the 750 athletes as well as Id
like. Gary is one that I knew,
athletic director Joel Maturi
said, his voice shaking. Some-
times got to know him because
of some of the things that he did
that I had to deal with. (But it
was) great to see his growth. He
was set to graduate next month.
Tough.
Tinsley completed his eligi-
bility at the end of the 2011 sea-
son. He lettered all four years
and started every game over his
final two seasons with the team.
He was No. 2 in total tackles
with 87 last season and finished
with 198 total tackles for his ca-
reer. He was not expected to be
chosen in the upcoming NFL
draft, but was hoping to catch
onas a rookie free agent totry to
continue his playing career.
Garys a young man that has
done everything I asked him to
do since the day I walked in this
door, said Kill, who was hired
before last season to take over
for the fired Brewster.

PLAINS -- With the season un-
der way at Mohegan Sun at Poco-
noDowns, oneveterandriver will
enjoy an early celebration.
Matt Romano, whoturns48lat-
er this month, opened the season
just 22winsshyof 2,500for hisca-
reer. Its a significant accomplish-
ment for the manfromNewYork.
"Ive been driving and training
since1985," Romanosaid. "It was
just me and my father when I
started. Now, hes retired. Ive got
a small stable, just five to eight
horses. We try to keep it a small
operation. My wife helps in the
barn.
"Its been good. Ive got almost
2,500 wins and most of the time
Imdriving my own horses."
Romano likes handling all as-
pects of the operation, fromtrain-
ingtodriving. Hebelievesthereis
a benefit to his level of involve-
ment in his horses.
"I try tobe more hands on," Ro-
mano said. "When you have a
small stable, you are able to get
the feel of the horses more than
you do in a big stable. You arent
forced to depend on the input of
others, you get to know all of the
horses personally."
And its a relationship that the
horses seem to enjoy. They are
more than investments, more
thanjust animalsthat arealsoath-
letes.
"I drive and train my own
horses, but they are more family
than just horses," Romano said.
"We give themdoughnuts andwe
give themcarrots."
Romanos most cherished re-
cent ride came with his horse
AMillionPennies last year at Po-
cono Downs, when the tandem
won in1:49:3. It was the top time
posted by the driver.
"My biggest race was with
AMillionPennies, a horse I still
have," Romano said. "He got his
lifetime best 1:49 here last year. I
claimed him for $20,000 and hes
made probably $200,000. Hes
kind of the star of the stable right
now."
While the majority of the rac-
ing season is spent at Pocono
Downs, Romanoalsodoesasmall
amount of racing at Chester and
at the Meadowlands. He said his
preference is to race at Pocono
Downs as much as possible,
though.
He finds the racing more en-
joyable and the facility to be the
best in the sport.
"The difference for me is that
theres a lot more strategy in run-
ning at the Meadowlands with
the mile track," Romano said.
"Some nights speed will hold out
and other nights you can make a
late run. At the Meadowlands,
youhavetobeintheright placeat
certain spots on the track if you
want tohavea chanceat theend."
Soon enough, Romano will be
inthe right place at the finishline
at Pocono Downs and will enjoy
another career milestone.
Driver Matt Romano chats last week at Mohegan Sun at Pocono
Downs race track.

NEW ORLEANS A record-
ing of then-New Orleans defen-
sive coordinator Gregg Williams
urging players to deliver puni-
shing hits on specific San Fran-
cisco players was released with-
out approval fromretired special
teams stand-
out Steve Glea-
son, who had
helped a docu-
mentary film
maker gain be-
hind-the-
scenes access
to the Saints.
I feel deflat-
ed and disappointed. I feel frus-
trated and distracted, Gleason
said in a statement on his web-
site.
Gleason has amyotrophic lat-
eral sclerosis, or ALS, and has al-
lowed film maker Sean Pamphi-
lon to capture his struggle with
the incurable disease. He played
for the Saints from 2000 to 2007
and maintains a strong relation-
ship with the club, which has
backed his efforts to improve the
lives of those living with the de-
bilitating symptoms of ALS.
Gleasons connections to the
team and to Pamphilon allowed
the documentarian to be in the
room with the Saints defense
ahead of New Orleans 36-32
playoff loss to San Francisco in
January.
The Saints have been incred-
ibly open and supportive of me
andmyfamilyduringmydisease
progression, Gleason wrote.
From my perspective, the
Saints have helped begin to shift
the paradigm of how an NFL
team should treat its players af-
ter retirement.
I included Sean Pamphilon in
some of these activities, because
I felt my relationship with the
Saints was an integral part of my
overall journey, Gleason said in
the statement posted Friday.
The Saints trusted me and gave
us unlimited access in filming,
and I, in turn, trusted Sean Pam-
philon.
Gleason said there was an
agreement that he and his family
would own the rights to any re-
cordings made of his interaction
with the Saints and that noth-
ing can be released without my
explicit approval.
The recording, which Pamphi-
lon posted one of his promotion-
al websites, purports to capture
Williams telling players to put a
lick on 49ers receiver Kyle Wil-
liams to see if he had lingering
effects from a concussion.
Williams also tells his players
to beat (running back) Frank
Gores head, and lay out quar-
terback Alex Smith. He also re-
minds his players that receiver
Michael Crabtree becomes hu-
man when we ... take out that
outside ACL, a reference to the
anterior cruciate ligament in the
receivers knee.

MIAMI Isiah Thomas ar-
rived at Florida International
knowing that he was taking a
risk.
Three years later, the school
didnt see enough reward.
The Basketball Hall of Fame
player was fired Friday by FIU, af-
ter his teams went 26-65 in his
three seasons. His hiring came
out of nowhere in 2009 No
one thought we could pull this
off, FIU director of sports and
entertainment Pete Garcia
proudly said at the time and in
the end, so did his firing.
FIU announced the decision in
a simple three-line statement.
We want to thank Isiah Tho-
mas for his three years here at
FIU, Garcia
said. However,
we have decid-
ed to take the
program in a
different direc-
tion.
A call and
text message to
Thomas were not immediately
returned.
Speechless, said DeJuan
Wright, FIUs leading scorer this
past season.
What do I do now...never felt
so lost! FIU guard Tanner Woz-
niak wrote on Twitter moments
after the firing was announced.
The Panthers were far frombeing
a basketball power before Tho-
mas arrived after a stint as coach
and president of the New York
Knicks. The schools last winning
season was the 1999-2000 cam-
paign and its winning percentage
of .315 since is 329th out of 344
Division I mens programs that
competed over the last 12 years.

Pay freeze for bailout execs
Compensation for chief executives at
AIG, Ally Financial and GM all of
which received exceptional TARP
assistance during the financial melt-
down is being frozen at last years
levels, the Treasury Department said.
The ruling also notes that the gov-
ernment has recovered 75 percent of
the funds it invested in American In-
ternational Group Inc.
General Motors Co. has reduced its
obligations by nearly half, while Ally
Financial Inc., formerly GMAC, has
returned nearly a third of its TARP
funds. The companies are all still partly
owned by the government; four others
have since exited the program.
Bonuses will be subject to claw-
backs. Cash salaries are largely limited
to $500,000 or less.
Overall direct compensation, accord-
ing to the ruling, will be down 10 per-
cent.
Costly gas = hybrid sales
Just when it looked like electric cars
were running out of juice, the return of
$4 a gallon gasoline is generating new
life for battery-powered vehicles.
Electric-drive vehicles, including
hybrids, plug-in models and pure bat-
tery-powered cars, were the fastest-
growing segment in the U.S. auto mar-
ket in the first quarter, according to
data compiled by Bloomberg. Sales of
those models rose 49 percent to 117,182
vehicles in the first quarter, from
78,527 a year earlier before Japans
earthquake and tsunami pinched out-
put.
Electric cars and hybrids are surging
in tandem with gasoline prices, which
averaged $3.93 a gallon on April 3,
approaching the July 2008 peak of
$4.11, according to AAA. Toyotas Prius
hybrid and General Motorss Chevrolet
Volt plug-in hybrid electric car each
had record sales in March. Nissan
Chief Executive Officer Carlos Ghosn
repeated hes "bullish" that pure elec-
tric cars will capture 10 percent of the
market by 2020.
Ford expanding in China
Ford announced it will spend $600
million to expand in Chongqing, China,
just weeks before the Beijing auto
show, where Chrysler will announce
the brands return to the Chinese mar-
ket.
Fords investment, with joint-venture
partner Changan Ford Mazda Automo-
bile, will expand capacity in Chongqing
by 350,000 vehicles to 950,000 annual-
ly and bring Fords total investment in
China to $4.1 billion.
Ford and Chrysler are playing catch-
up in the worlds biggest auto market,
where General Motors and Volkswagen
are the largest foreign automakers
working with Chinese partners.
Credit card use down
Americans took out more loans to
buy cars and attend school in February
but used their credit cards less fre-
quently for the second straight month.
The Federal Reserve said Friday that
consumers increased borrowing by
$8.7 billion, the sixth straight monthly
increase.
The jump in borrowing was driven
by $11 billion increase in the category
that mostly measures demand for auto
and student loans. Borrowing on credit
cards fell by $2 billion after a $3 billion
decline in January.
Facebook to list on Nasdaq
Facebook plans to list its shares on
the Nasdaq Stock Market, further ce-
menting the exchange operators posi-
tion as the favored venue for the big-
gest U.S. technology companies, ac-
cording to a person with knowledge of
the matter.
Facebook filed for a $5 billion initial
public offering on Feb. 1. While the
market capitalization of New York
Stock Exchange shares is about triple
the value of Nasdaq companies, the
latter market operator has about twice
as many technology corporations trad-
ing for more than $1 billion, according
to data compiled by Bloomberg.

WILKES-BARRE TWP. Scent-Sa-
tions Inc. Chief Executive Officer Bob
Scocozzo said Friday its his goal to have
his companys products sold in every
store in the world.
His ambitious plans became more re-
alistic Friday at a Northeastern Pennsyl-
vania Alliance International Business
Development gathering at the Hampton
Inn.
The event is held to help Pennsyl-
vania businesses develop international-
ly, said Michael Horvath, international
business development manager for the
NEPAAlliance. Thats the reasonweve
done this for 30 years locally.
More than a dozen local companies
made connections Friday with market-
ing representatives from Brazil, Chile,
India, Germany, United Arab Emirates,
Korea, Mexico, Shanghai andSingapore.
Scocozzo and his partners, Carmen
Milazzo and Charles Umphred, met
with Jin Kim, a marketing specialist
from Korea, who will make contacts
with distributors in his country who are
interested in selling Scent-Sations can-
dles and beauty products.
The trio also spoke with several other
representatives at the meeting, includ-
ing those from Shanghai.
Other local businesses at the event in-
cluded manufacturers of plastic for in-
dustrial use, homecareproducts, beauty
supplies and scaffolding.
The key to any business is finding
someone to sell your product, too, Hor-
vath said. (Businesses) come to the
conference and find potential buyers
who are interested in seeing them suc-
ceed.
Horvathsaidtradeadvisers, whowork
for the NEPA Alliance and state offices
that also run the program, give local
companies support and guidance
through the process.
NEPA Alliance works with the state
Department of Community and Eco-
nomic Development to fund the pro-
gram.
The program helps 1,200 companies
per year across the state, of which 20 to
30 percent report export sales as a result
of participating in the program.
Locally, approximately 100 compa-
nies participate inthe program, Horvath
said, some just looking for information
and others becoming heavily involved.
Horvath said companies may partici-
pate in several of the five or six events
held locally each year. The next event
will be held Sept. 21.
Umphred said Friday because Scent-
Sations uses all Pennsylvania manufac-
tured ingredients and manufactures its

EXINGTON, Ky. Hemp
isnt legal in Kentucky yet,
but the eclectic mix of people
at a recent seminar in Lex-
ington was evidence that support for
the versatile plant may be takingroot.
One by one, elected officials
stepped forward to promote the vir-
tues of hemp production, staking out
a position that once might have sown
political trouble back home. They
were cheered by liberals and libertar-
ian-leaning conservatives alike.
Weve come a long way, said state
Sen. Joey Pendleton, who has spon-
sored a string of unsuccessful bills
seeking to reintroduce hemp in the
Bluegrass state. The first year I had
this, it was lonely.
Kentucky once was a leading pro-
ducer of industrial hemp, a tall, leafy
plant with a multitude of uses that
has been outlawed for decades be-
cause of its association with marijua-
na. Those seeking to legalize the
plant argue that the change would
create a new crop for farmers, replac-
ing a hemp supply now imported
from Canada and other countries.
The plant can be used to make pa-
per, biofuels, clothing, lotions and
other products.
Despite bipartisan support, the lat-
est hemp measures failed again this
year in the Kentucky General As-
sembly. But this time, hemp advo-
cates think they have momentum on
their side and vow to press on with
their campaign to legalize the crop.
I think next year is the year, said
Pendleton, whose grandfather raised
hemp in western Kentucky.
Hemp bills have been introduced in
11 state legislatures this year, but so
far none have passed, according to
the National Conference of State Leg-
islatures. The bills include allowing
privately funded industrial hemp re-
search, allowing hemp production
under strict licensing programs and
urging the federal government to al-
low hemp production for industrial
uses.
Hemps reputation has undergone
drastic pendulum swings in the U.S.

Hemp takes root
By BRUCE SCHREINER
Associated Press
WASHINGTON The U.S. job mar-
ket slowed in March as companies hit
the brakes on hiring amid uncertainty
about the economys growth prospects.
The unemployment rate dipped, but
mostly because more Americans stop-
ped looking for work.
The Labor Department said Friday
that the economy added 120,000 jobs in
March, downfrommore than200,000 in
each of the previous three months.
Theunemployment ratefell to8.2per-
cent. The rate has dropped nearly a full
percentage point since August and is
now at its lowest level since January
2009.
But the rate dropped last month be-
cause fewer people searched for jobs.
The official unemployment tally only in-
cludes those seeking work.
Despite the pullback in March, the
economy has added 858,000 jobs since
December the best four months of
hiring in two years.
Amildwinter mayhavepartiallyinflu-
enced the hiring in March. January and
February were unusually warm, which
allowed construction firms and other
companies to hire people for outdoor
work several weeks earlier thanusual
effectively stealing jobs from March.
Economists cautioned that its just
one weak month after three solid gains.
Many were encouraged by strong hiring
at factories, hotels and restaurants
businesses that reflect the health of the
economy.
And government hiring was little
changed in March, a positive sign after
months of layoffs at the state and local
level.
We are disappointed, said Anthony
Chan, chief economist at JPMorgan
Wealth Management. But when you go
inside and lift the hood, the numbers
look a little better.
The biggest hit to the job market in
March was at retail stores. They shed
nearly 34,000 jobs after cutting nearly
29,000 in February. Temporary help
firms dropped almost 8,000 a poten-
tiallybadsignfor thejobmarket because
companies often hire temp workers be-
fore adding full timers.
Hourly wages rose 5 cents to an aver-
age $23.39. The average workweek,
though, fell slightly to 34.5 hours in
March.
Hiring slows amid economic uncertainty
By PAUL WISEMAN
AP Economics Writer
WASHINGTON -- Rep. Paul Ryan, R-
Wis., accused President Barack Obama
last week of setting the nation on an "un-
sustainable" path that would endanger
"our kids andgrandkids." Obama, inturn,
alleged this week that Ryan and Republi-
canfront-runnerMitt Romneyweretrying
"to impose a radical visiononour country
thinly veiled Social Darwinism."
It was a familiar punch-counterpunch
over the problemof the nations rocketing
debt. Yet amid the rhetoric, it was easy to
overlook a fundamental question:
Why cant Americas leaders, at the
helmof such a wealthy country, find a so-
lution that both puts the nation on a long-
term path to financial security and pre-
serves the vast array of vital services gov-
ernment provides?
Obamaattemptstostrikethebalancein
theshort term, inanapproachthat largely
maintains government as it is today. But
he hasnt presenteda planthat wouldpro-
tect future generations from a fast-grow-
ing national debt.
Ryan offers a strategy that he says
wouldput anendtothenationsdebt prob-
lems. But it comes at a great cost to the
typesof government programsAmericans
have come to rely on.
The reason neither man has found the
sweet spot which both stabilizes the
debt and preserves key programs has in
part to do with political taboos. Obama
has yet to put forward a plan that fully ad-
dresses the long-termcosts of Medicare, a
primary driver of the nations debt. Medi-
cares costs will be pushed higher by
waves of retiring workers. Although he
wishes to raise taxes on the wealthy, he
has pledged to leave people earning less
than $250,000 alone, depriving the gov-
ernment of a potential source of substan-
tial revenue.
Ryan, Romney and many Republicans,
however, refuse toraise taxes at all. Tothe
contrary, they wish to reduce rates, with
wealthy Americans beingthe biggest ben-
eficiaries of those reductions. Such an ap-
proach requires deep cuts to the nations
safety net.
"The president has to be more realistic
about raising taxes more across the board
on a broader group of people if hes going
to maintain spending at the levels hes
talking about," said Roberton Williams, a
senior fellow at the nonpartisan Tax Pol-
icy Center.
Obama, GOP
in deadlock
over the debt
By ZACHARY A. GOLDFARB
The Washington Post.
BUFFALO, N.Y. Eastman Kodak
Co. is seeking permission to pay about
300 executives and other employees a
total of $13.5 million in bonuses to per-
suade them to stay with the company
as it reorganizes under bankruptcypro-
tection.
The Rochester-based company said
the targeted employees have knowl-
edge and skills critical to help the busi-
ness emerge from Chapter 11 and
would be difficult to replace if they left
to pursue other offers. They include
119 middle managers who would share
$8.5 million of the sum.
Also this week, Kodak toldretirees it
has withdrawn for now its motion to
end supplemental health care benefits
for about 16,000 Medicare-eligible reti-
rees. The company will instead create
a retirees committee to examine the is-
sues of medical and survivor benefits.
Once the ... committee is formed,
we will take another look at what is the
best approach to address our legacy re-
tiree costs, Kodak said in a letter dat-
ed Wednesday.
The request for bonuses was includ-
ed in an employee continuity plan out-
lined by Kodak in a U.S. Bankruptcy
Court filing in New York this week.
The 119 managers identified as
Group1, whose names the filing said
are sensitive and highly confidential,
wouldreceivebonuses equivalent to35
to 50 percent of their base salaries.

Since the date of
Easter Sunday
can cover almost
the span of a full
month, the
weather on
Easter has gone
from one
extreme to
another. The
hottest on
record here was
back in 1976
when we hit 92
degrees. The
coldest Easter
was way back in
1923 when the
morning low was
only 8 degrees.
In 1970, Easter
Sunday had us
knee deep in
snow with 11
inches. Last year,
Easter fell on
April 24, and it
was cloudy with
showers and a
high of 67.
Tomorrow will be
a ne day with
warmer temper-
atures. Today will
be stunning with
crystal clear
skies and a cool
breeze. Get out
there and hunt
for some eggs.
- Tom Clark
NATIONAL FORECAST: Showers and thunderstorms will form along a frontal boundary in the central
and southern Plains today. A few thunderstorms could be strong to severe in northern Texas and far
southern Oklahoma. Light rain is also expected along the front in the Midwest and portions of the
northern Plains. High pressure will promote dry conditions across the Ohio Valley, Deep South and
Mid-Atlantic.

Time and again the homes on Second Ave-

nue in Kingston have been inundated with
flood waters, washing away possessions both
inside and out. One thing that was never lost,
though, was the sense of community, especial-
ly for Chuck Peterman, who has lived on the
street all 78 years of his life.
I started out in an apartment across the
street, he said. Years later my father bought a
house two down from where I am now. I
bought this home when I got married.
Peterman was a baby when water hit the
home in 1936 and only slightly remembers
when it came up to a foot on the first floor in
1942. Unforgettable was 1972, when he lived in
his current home with his wife, Patty, and his
son Chuck.
We had three feet of water on the second
floor. We lived in a trailer in a lot at the end of
the street for a
little over a
year while this
house dried
out and was
fixed up.
When flood
waters rose
again in Sep-
tember, Peter-
man, who now
lives with his
black Labrador
retriever Rebel
after his wife
died years ago
and his son,
now 53, moved
out, vowed he
would not
come back if
the house was
flooded again.
He and the other Second Avenue residents
were safe this time, a fortunate thing because
the memories attached to Petermans neigh-
borhood were not something he wanted to
leave behind.
This street is wonderful, he said. Its a
nice place to live. It always has been.
Peterman recalls a lively street where the
children of First and Third avenues also would
hang around. There was once a Howard John-
sons on Market Street, one of the first busi-
nesses in the area to have air conditioning.
Us kids would walk in the lobby and stand
there to cool off, then the manager would
chase us off. Wed leave for a little while and go
back and do it again.
Second Avenue once had Browns Supermar-
ket on the corner and a skating rink at the op-
posite end near Pierce that also included an
outdoor rink in the winter. The Seventh-day
Adventist Church has been there as long as Pe-
terman can remember.
There used to be animals in Kirby Park,
monkeys and bears, Peterman said.
Petermans neighbors the Evanses, mother
and daughter Kay, 72, and Beth, 47, have been
in their house since June 1971. Kays sister Jes-
sie Nicholas has lived in the next house down
as long. Theyre all very close with Peterman.
Chuck is a neighbor, sure, Kay said, but
hes really like a family member.
Kay cuts both Petermans and Nicholas
lawns in the summer, and she and Beth shovel
the walks in the winter.
Rebel is another member of the neighbor-
hood family, showing up at the Evanses back
door for treats on many days.
We dont have a dog in our home, but we
certainly have treats, Beth said.
All three residents have seen a change in the
neighborhood dynamic over the years, mainly
in that its quieter.
Too quiet, Peterman said. It used to be
when the kids were younger, everybody would
be out in their yards doing something. I like to
see kids running around playing; it brings a lit-
tle life to the neighborhood. Now, theyre all
grown up or there are new people with no chil-
Chuck Peterman and his dog Rebel sit on the
front porch of their Second Avenue home in
Kingston, where Peterman has resided for
nearly 80 years.

f, as the chef Sascha Lyon says, knives are one of the cool toys of
his profession, then plenty of amateurs are aiming to play with
the pros. The choices for a home cook have blossomed, says
Laurence Segal, who opened a shop in Santa Monica, Calif., where
he makes knives by hand as well as sells other brands and sharpens
blades.
One thing driving the knife market is
that people have much more sensitive
palates than they used to, Segal says.
That means discriminating eaters can
or say they can distinguish be-
tween food thats cut or torn with a dull
knife and food thats properly cut.
A second driver is men. More of
themare cooking and want the tools to
do it, he says.
Id agree with that. Men are proba-
bly our most prominent buyer of cut-
lery. And thats not true with our other
products, says Susanna Linse, a spokeswo-
man for Sur La Table. Men love their cut-
lery.
A $20 knife with a plastic handle will
work just fine, at least for a time. But a $200
knife thats well cared for can be passed on
to grandchildren. And if a $200 knife still
seems mundane, there are custom-made
knives designed to fit the hand that feeds
withit, some that cost thousands of dollars.
No matter how good a knife starts out, it
wont cut well or last unless it is well-main-
tained.
Sascha Lyon, the chef at Delphine, sharpens
his knives every day, adding, Id never let
anyone else touch them. He makes an excep-
tion for the Manhattan shop Korin. He takes
some knives there when he goes to New York.
Of course, the stakes are a little higher for
Lyon than for home cooks. He recalls how
important sharp knives were when he worked
at one of New Yorks top restaurants, Daniel
Bouluds Restaurant Daniel.
The fear was that if chef picked up your
knife and it wasnt sharp, he might toss it in
the trash or even break it, Lyon says. Either
way, you were done. You had to have the
sharpest knife in the kitchen.
He says hes not quite so demanding at Del-
phine: I try to be a little softer than I what I
grew up with.
At home, cooks can learn to sharpen their
knives on a stone. Or take them to a profes-
sional at least once a year.
Custom knife maker Laurence Segal says a
steel can double the time a knife stays
sharp. Thats a tool that has a wooden handle
and a long, skewer-shaped top. Each time a
knife is used, the cook can hone the blade by
stroking it along the steel at a 20-degree
angle.
Knives should be used only on cutting
boards, not on granite or glass; and they
should not be washed in the dishwasher,
John Pitblado of the store Surfas says.
Store knives on a magnetic strip, either
hanging on the wall or in a drawer, or in a flat
wood block. A standing wood block also

I RECEIVED A
letter from
readers about
the failure of a
paint they had
used on the
concrete floor
of their basement.
Enclosed was a sample of
what was peeling from the
floor.
Rather than quote from the
letter word for word, Ill give
you the gist of what happened:
The couple had bought a
washer and dryer that had to go
into the basement. A year ago,
they went to Lowes looking for
concrete floor paint to pretty up
the place.
They told the salesperson
what they were doing, and he
highly recommended Valspar
Porch and Floor Paint. They
painted the floor and it looked
nice.
The tub into which the wash-
er drains became blocked, and
it overflowed. They quickly
mopped up the water, which
was on the floor no more than a
few hours.
The paint had bubbles all
over the floor, which started
peeling off everywhere, the
couple wrote.
They said they followed the
directions. It was not inexpen-
sive paint, was called high
performance on the label, and
now these senior citizens have
to clean up all the loose paint
before they can paint again.
They wont, however, until I
can reassure them that it wont
happen again.
Let me talk about my experi-
ence. My first rule is no matter
what product I use, I assume
theres always a chance it will
not fully live up to the promise
on the container.
I live in southern New Jersey,
land of the high water table. I
use Behrs 1-Part Epoxy Con-
crete & Garage Floor Paint on
my basement floor, following all
the directions on surface prep-
aration and application.
I keep the can handy. Why?
Because sometimes the floor
underneath the paint is damp
from the rising water table, or
someone spills water on it, and
the surface bubbles.
I scrape off the old paint,
prepare the surface and repaint
sometimes every six months.
I use it even though it clearly
says on the label it is not rec-
ommended for surfaces subject
to hydrostatic pressure in
places that are, I know Ill have
to provide more frequent main-
tenance.
Its part of the home-own-
ership routine, as far as Im
concerned.
Deborah Zimmer at Dows
Paint Quality Institute in
Spring House, Pa., said she and
the institute staff agree that
water is a big issue and recom-
mend using an epoxy paint to
reduce the chance of product
failure.
The underground water table
can especially be a big problem.
Of course, before painting,
surface prep must be complete,
Zimmer said.
Some websites I checked out
recommend sealing the floor
with an acrylic sealer. The next
step is top-coating with an
acrylic paint.
After an Internet search for
incidents similar to what the
readers reported, I came to a
site called www.epoxyandepox-
yflooring.com:
Migrating moisture, as op-
posed to simple standing water,
creates a more difficult prob-
lem. The common sign of this
kind of failure is water-filled
blisters.
The site went on to say that
this typically occurred while
the paint was curing, and my
readers didnt say how long
after they painted the accident
occurred.
This excerpt from the web-
site gives the rationale behind
my regularly maintaining the
basement floor:
Water in the concrete is a
major cause for premature
epoxy floor coating failures.
Floors can have dry areas and
damp areas, including some
damp areas that never dry out.
What should the readers do?
Well, if the paint had performed
well until the accidental over-
flow, then I would scrape, care-
fully prep and repaint. If un-
affected areas showed signs of
similar stress, Id write to the
manufacturer to see if compen-
sation is in order.
Theres no harm in trying,
especially if the directions on
the can were followed and the
paint was recommended by the
retailer.

Last Lid is a flexible replace-
ment lid for a trash can.
The lid is an elasticized bon-
net made of polyethelene fabric
that fits cans in a variety of
shapes and sizes. Cinching
fasteners let you fit the lid
snugly on the trash can, and a
plastic zip tie keeps it attached
to the handle so it wont blow
away.
The Last Lid fits cans up to
32 gallons.
The product can be ordered
at www.lastlid.com or 800-210-
8128. Two lids sell for $10.99
plus $5.99 shipping and hand-
ling.
Q&A
Q: We are thinking of buying
some new patio furniture but
do not have room in the garage
to store it over the winter.
What are our options for nice-
looking, comfortable furniture
that can stay outside? We can
invest in covers if necessary.
A: Susan Dovel of B&G Fire-
place & Patio in Jackson Town-
ship, Ohio, suggested looking
for 100 percent aluminum
frames, which wont rust. Even
if you buy wicker or resin wick-
er furniture, the frames should
be aluminum.
Make sure the aluminum has
a good-quality powder coating,
which will hold up better to
outdoor conditions, she said.
Cast aluminum is often a good
choice, because its heavy.
Dovel said another option is
teak, especially Brazilian teak.
Teak will weather and turn
gray, but its high oil content
will keep it from breaking down
the way many other woods will.
If the furniture has cushions,
she recommended looking for
good outdoor fabrics and fills
that contain polyfill and are
wrapped for durability. A cush-
ion can have a thin foam core
and still be good, but a cushion
thats all foam will break down
easily and compact with wear,
she said.
Whatever kind of furniture
you choose, she recommended
investing in covers for winter.
The cushions should be stored
indoors if possible.
On the shelf
Some people spurn older
ranch houses. Others embrace
their Mad Men-esque allure.
Atomic Ranch: Midcentury
Interiors is for the latter.
The book, by the creators of
Atomic Ranch magazine, takes
readers inside eight midcentury
homes to showcase their interi-
ors. Some were preserved or
restored to their 50s and 60s
appearance, while others were
given more contemporary up-
dates that still honor the
homes original style.
Readers can pick up tips and
inspiration from the homeown-
ers decorating choices and
learn from their challenges.
The book contains plenty of
resources and guidance, so if
you like something you see,
theres a good chance youll be
able to replicate it in your own
home.
Atomic Ranch: Midcentury
Interiors is written by Mi-
chelle Gringeri-Brown, with
photos by Jim Brown. Its pub-
lished by Gibbs Smith and sells
for $40 in hardcover.

Well-chosen culinary knives
rather than whatever a couple
happened to get for a wedding
gift have risen significantly in
popularity with the boomof tele-
vision food shows, where chefs
could be seen using all sorts of
blades, Linse says. And Sur La
Tables knife-skills classes are
among the companys most pop-
ular.
In mid- to top-range knives,
one choice a cook makes is be-
tween Asian-style knives, which
generally have thinner blades
and are lighter, and heartier Eu-
ropean-style knives, which make
cutting chicken easier.
Over the past eight years,
Linse says, interest in Asian
knives has grown, so much so
that at one point sales of santoku
blades flat blades with a curve
toward the tip surpassed the
traditional European shape.
That has leveled off, and
theyre about head to head, she
says.
John Pitblado, the knife
geek at Surfas Restaurant Sup-
ply & Gourmet Food in Culver
City, Calif., agrees: Our custom-
ers are really going back to the
traditional-style knife. Nothing
beats a good Western chefs
knife.
But Japanese knives, with the
romance of a history dating to
the samurai, are here to stay,
Linse says. Among the popular
brands are Shun, with its distinc-
tive oval handle, and the all-steel
Global. The Global knife is in the
Museum of Modern Art design
collection, and its the sexiest
look of all of our knives, Pitbla-
do says.
People who love it are ga-ga
over it. The handle, which is cov-
ered with small divots, is filled
with sand to give it balance and a
substantial feel, Pitblado says.
The Global santoku costs $120.
Surfas also carries the Masahi-
ro brand, which has an absurd-
ly sharp edge. It floats through
squash. And it also will float
through a finger, Pitblado says.
Of the European style, popular
brands include Wusthof and
Henckels. Surfas sells knives
from Messermeister; the 10-inch
chefs knife costs $144.
Segal, the Santa Monica knife
maker, sells his custom 8- or 10-
inchchefs knife for around$300.
His workshop is a jumble of ma-
chines and multicolored belts
that grind wood handles and
steel blades.
At 38, he found himself ready
for a new occupation and asked
himself what he loved. He an-
swered in part: plants, especially
staghorn ferns, the ocean and
knives.
So he went to Barnes &Noble,
found a book about making
knives and got to work in his ga-
rage. I lovedit pretty muchfrom
Day 1, he says. Rhino Custom
Knives began 15 years ago and
moved to Santa Monica at his
wifes suggestion. Women
would be much more interested
ingetting their knives sharpened
if they didnt have to meet a
strange man in his garage, Segal
recalls her saying.
Among his custom offerings is
a 6.5-inch Rhino Chop. It has
holes along the blade and in a
butterfly shape near the handle.
The former help keep food from
sticking to the blade, and the lat-
ter enable the cooktoget a better
grip, Segal says. Segal also incor-
porates safety features, such as a
thumb ramp that provides a
surer hold.
He works by stock removal,
grinding away what he doesnt
want. After forming the basic
profile, he drills the holes and
then sends the piece for heat
treatment to make it strong but
not brittle. Then the blade gets
the final finishwork, andthe han-
dle, one of several exotic hard-
woods, is attached. It takes up to
10 hours to make a knife, he says.
The majority of knives sold to-
day have stainless-steel blades,
but some cooks prefer old-fash-
ioned carbon steel knives, which
can have a sharper edge but re-
quire more care. They can rust
andwill developa patina familiar
to anyone using grandmothers
knives.
Earlier this year, Sur La Table
introduced a line of carbon steel
knives designed by Bob Kramer
and made by Zwilling J.A.
Henckels; the priciest Kramer
knife at Sur La Table is an 8-inch
Damascus carbon steel chefs
knife that sells for $1,799. Kram-
ers own handmade knives have
become so popular that custom-
ers must register on his website
even for the chance to order.
Experts often recommend
against knife sets, because each
knife should be chosen to suit
the owners needs. Home cooks
can get by with a chefs knife, a
paring knife or two and a serrat-
ed knife for bread.
Some people really like the
feel of a certain kind of handle.
How a knife feels in your hand
can be very different than in my
hand, Linse says. If I am with
my husband, well have a differ-
ent experience. He might go to-
ward a 10-inch. I have a 10-inch,
but I rarely use it. I use a 6-inch. I
prefer the Japanese blade. ... I
like the weight of the knife, how
it feels in my hand.
The Global is a great knife for
vegetarians, Lyon says. A lot of
it is howyou respond to the tool.
The same way we taste with our
eyes. ... Its got to give you a tin-
gle.
So why would cooks buy a new
knife if they own one that can
last generations?
With a new tool you can re-
new your experience with food,
says Pitblado, owner of a Victori-
nox, two Globals, a Masahiro
and a Henckels.
I could never have enough
knives, says Lyon, executive
chef at Delphine at the W Holly-
wood Hotel.
His favorite is a wide-blade
Wusthof, but he also has a knife
with his name engraved that a
friend brought from Japan and
about 15 inexpensive paring
knives. Among the less common
blades, he has a 16-inch serrated
knife used to cut the bone of a
large fish, a one-piece solidmetal
Japanese cleaver and a couple of
Damascus steel knives.
But its all relative.
Nothing like Morimoto has,
he jokes about the Iron Chef.

You just dont know your

used to, she said. Everyone is
so busy. They drive infromwork
and go right into their doors,
and thats it.
The Second Avenue crowd
would like to fix that problem.
New people were moving in,
and we realized we didnt know

plained. About two years ago I
thought, Lets have a neighbor-

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: I am a
teenager who has
recently discovered
that my dad has been
having sexually ex-
plicit conversations
with women online
for at least 10 years.
He is usually withdrawn from the rest
of the family, and I suspect its be-
cause he cares more about his online
fantasies than he does about his life
with my brothers, my mother and me.
I dont know what to do. I can no
longer look him in the eye. I dont re-
spect him; I pity him. Im afraid to tell
anyone in my family because of the
drama it will cause, and dont want to
tell him because I know it will change
our relationship. Still, I dont think I
can keep this to myself.
I have considered seeing a thera-
pist, but I dont know how I can do
that without giving my parents an ex-
planation about why Im going. What
do you think I should do?
Conflicted Teen in New York
Dear Conflicted: You have been ex-
posed to a large dose of information
you shouldnt have, and for that you
have my sympathy. If you feel you
need to discuss this with a therapist,
then you definitely should.
As I see it, you have several op-
tions. The first would be to talk
to a counselor at school and ask if
counseling is available that way. If it
isnt, then tell your father you need it,
and why. And if he refuses, tell your
mother everything.
Dear Abby: Im a 23-year-old college
junior, double-majoring in English
and education. Although I am pretty
advanced in my degree field, Im hav-
ing second thoughts about my deci-
sion. Every day it seems as if I invest
all my time and energy into some-
thing I dont want to be a part of.
I have a very adventurous spirit.
I want to constantly be doing, go-
ing and discovering. Part of me says
Im an adult and I should ignore the
explorer part of me. But its hard to
say that change isnt possible because
were talking the rest of my life. How
can I connect passion with occupa-
tion especially at this stage of the
game?
Gypsy Soul
Dear Gypsy Soul: There are various
options in the field of education, and
one of them is teaching English in
foreign countries. Start looking for
opportunities in that area. Another
option that comes to mind would be
joining the Peace Corps or Teach for
America. Please consider what I am
suggesting and do some research on
your own.
Dear Abby: Is it ever proper to wear
your napkin tucked into your shirt
collar when dining out? Traditionally,
a napkin is placed on the lap to pre-
vent soiling of the clothing, I would
guess. But some plus-sized folks and
women with large bustlines dont usu-
ally have food reach their laps, just
their shirts. So what do you think?
Just Wondering in New Jersey
Dear Just Wondering: Your napkin
belongs in your lap when dining
out, regardless of what size you are.
According to Emily Post, an excep-
tion can be made for the elderly or
infirm. Consider carrying a stain re-
mover pen with you in case there is
a slip twixt the fork and the lip.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).
Sometimes its lonely at the
top, but you dont really mind
because there is so much thats
enjoyable there. Besides, youve
worked so hard to get where
you are. You can always remedy
the situation.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You
can handle the truth almost
any truth when its presented
in a nonemotional manner. Its
the feelings that make facts dif-
ficult to process sometimes.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Youre
getting a certain reputation
with yourself. What you think
about you is the only opinion
that really matters today, as any
other opinions arent likely to
affect you.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Center
yourself. If you dont know how,
its worth learning, because
theres much to gain from being
in a solid place internally. For
starters, youll be able to cor-
rectly assess your situation.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You like
money because it buys you the
freedom to arrange your life the
way you want it. Without fund-
ing, less is possible. Seek finan-
cial aid.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You
feel ready to take things to the
next level. Dont try to convince
another person to feel the same.
Act like they already do feel the
same, and it will just happen.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Youll feel
better for getting something off
your chest. Whether it should
go in your diary or you should
tell the other person, well, that
depends on what youre trying to
accomplish.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Whatever you do, your instinct is
to do it with style. This may take
more money, time and effort
than you originally wanted to
give. However, youll go forward.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Trying to feel what you think
you should feel isnt going to
work. When you let your true
feelings flow and accept them,
other impulses such as grace
and love will emerge.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Your heart is not exactly over-
run with joy, but it is pretty full,
and you have much love to give.
And youll be in just the gener-
ous mood to try to even things
out by contributing all you can.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You
may feel guilty for seeking hap-
piness when there is so much
need and pain in the world. But
you owe it to the ones who are
suffering to experience all the
joy you possibly can.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Its
been said that laughter is a form
of exercise for your insides. Your
sense of humor will be going
strong. Everyone needs this kind
of workout.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (April 7).
This year turns up your creativ-
ity and drive. By Aprils end,
a new project consumes your
energy and gives back tenfold.
Youll have the attention of
major players in May. In June,
friends lead you to different
work. The most romantic months
will be July and December.
Gemini and Sagittarius people
adore you. Your lucky numbers
are: 5, 2, 34, 40 and 18.
