Letteer, 23, of Mack Street, Plains Township, showed no remorse as he was escorted into magisterial district court at about 11 a.m. wearing a black T-shirt, torn pajama pants and ip ops. He hid his face with his hands, which were handcuffed. He told District Judge Diana Malast he was suspended by his employer when this happened. Wilkes-Barre police and county detectives allege Letteer was behind the wheel of a 1999 Pontiac Grand Am that struck the boy on North Street on Dec. 21. Kevin, of Dallas, was holding his fathers hand while crossing the street when he was struck. The Miller family had left a Christmas party they attended at a house on North Street. The boy was a son of Dr. Stephen and Caroline Miller. Letteer has been charged with one count of accidents involving death, Salavantis said. Letteer was jailed at the county correctional facility for lack of $200,000 bail. A preliminary hearing scheduled for April 18 will likely be continued.

U.S. stresses limits of North Koreas nuclear repower


focused on the limits of Pyongyangs nuclear repower Friday, trying to shift attention from the disclosure that the North Koreans might be able to launch a nuclear strike. They insisted that while the unpredictable government might have rudimentary nuclear capabilities, it has not proved it has a weapon that could reach the United States. A senior defense ofcial said the United States sees a strong likelihood that North Korea will launch a test missile in coming days in deance of international calls for restraint. The effort is expected to test the Norths ballistic missile technologies, not a nuclear weapon, said the ofcial, who was granted anonymity to discuss intelligence matters.

Unless the missile unexpectedly heads for a U.S. or allied target, the Pentagon does not plan to try to shoot it down, several ofcials said.

Hugo Selenskis often-delayed, double-homicide trial in Luzerne County Court can be scheduled now that the state Supreme Court denied a defense appeal to dismiss the case. Whether the trial will commence is another story yet to unfold. Selenskis lawyers, Shelley Centini and Edward Rymsza, can le an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court or be allowed by Luzerne County Judge Fred Pierantoni III to leave the case. If either or both are acted upon, Selenskis trial might be delayed once again. County prosecutors have 120 days from the state Supreme Courts order, dated April 10, to bring Selenski to trial, which would take it to Aug. 8. Centini and Rymsza challenged an Aug. 3, 2012 decision by Pierantoni that denied a request to dismiss the case against Selenski citing double jeopardy. Selenski is facing two counts of criminal homicide in the killings of Tammy Fassett, 37, and Michael Kerkowski, 37, on

May 3, 2002. Their bodies were found in a shallow grave outside a Kingston To w n s h i p Selenski home where Selenski lived on June 5, 2003, when the charred remains of Frank James, Adeiye Keiler and an unidentied person also were discovered. Centini and Rymsza believed the Fassett/Kerkowski case should have been tried at the same time Selenski had a trial for the deaths of James and Keiler, because they arose out of the same investigation. Investigators believed James and Keiler were killed in May 2003 during the purchase of crack cocaine inside a detached garage at the Kingston Township home on Mount Olivet Road. After a trial in March 2006, a jury found Selenski not guilty in the death of Keiler. A mistrial was declared when the jury was unable to reach a unanimous decision for the homicide of James. Selenski was convicted of burning their corpses. Selenski was charged with the killings of Fassett and Kerkowski after the verdicts

SWOYERSVILLE When Joe Weidlich received a call a few days ago asking him to cut down a tree, he felt troubled. This was not just any tree. Hundreds of years old and 75-feet tall the last time it was measured, this particular swamp white oak has been growing in Swoyersville long before the borough even had a name. The Pennsylvania Forestry Association, which maintains a record of the biggest trees of each species in the state, designated the oak a

Three displaced after Swoyersville re


Fireghters rescue dog from Hazle Street home during Fridays blaze.
By STEVE MOCARSKY smocarsky@timesleader.com

SWOYERSVILLE Not feeling well, Nancy OKane came home early from work Friday and was napping in her bedroom when a loud noise woke her. She thought someone was breaking in. When she opened her bedroom door, thick, black smoke poured into the room. OKane ran out the back door at 18 Hazle St. and screamed for help, going from house to house, knocking on neighbors doors. Finally, a neighbor who was at home came out and called 911. A stranger, OKane said, went into her home, crawling on his hands and knees, trying to nd her dog, but all he could manage to retrieve was her purse and some shoes. The smoke was just too thick, preventing the man from accomplishing the rescue. But within minutes of re-

ceiving the 3:20 p.m. report of a structure re with a dog entrapped, reghters arrived and were able to retrieve Boomer, the nearly 150-pound St. Bernard /Labrador/Rottweiler mix. They were so wonderful, said OKane. They gave him CPR on the lawn. The ambulance took him to the Plains Animal Hospital. Wasnt that nice, giving him CPR and oxygen? Deputy Fire Chief John Konopka said that as of 4:30 p.m, the dog was doing ne and wagging his tail. The OKane family, however, lost most of its possessions. Fireghters had ames under control within two minutes of their arrival, Konopka said. However, damage to the home was still extensive. OKane said her husband, Steven, was at work, and their son, Thomas, also was not at home when the re started. She said they will stay with family.

Toohil champions change to arrest warrant rules


Proposal would allow prosecutors to delay the release of information for 10 days or until it has been executed.
By TERRIE MORGAN-BESECKER tmorgan@timesleader.com

A state House of Representatives committee recently passed a resolution urging the Supreme Court to alter rules that would allow prosecutors to delay the release of information on arrest warrants to the public. The resolution, which was unanimously approved by state Rep. Tarah Toohil, R-Butler Township, and other members of the judiciary committee, would allow prosecutors to delay the public release of a warrant for 10 days or until it has been executed, whichever comes rst. Prosecutors could also seek a further delay if good cause is shown. Toohil has expressed concern about the current rules, which allow the public and members of the news media to immediately obtain a copy of the warrant from a district judge. The media often prints information on the case before the person is arrested,

potentially putting law enforcement at risk and compromising the criminal case, she said. Its important for ofcers safety, Toohil said. If arrest warrant information is put out, the way technology is, it goes out on the Internet. Often people who are going to be arrested nd out before the ofcer gets to the door. Melissa Melewsky, an attorney with the The Pennsylvania Newspaper Association, said the association opposes the rule change, believing it goes too far and would needlessly delay the dissemination of public information. It allows for arrest warrants to be sealed indenitely. That clearly raises a constitutional issue, Melewsky said. We dont want law enforcement to be at risk, but we believe the proposal goes too far. Melewsky noted there are currently safeguards in place that allow police to le a petition with county court to seal a warrant if good cause is shown. The proposed rule change would make that process easier for police by extending that right to district judges.

Sam Sanguedolce, rst assistant district attorney for Luzerne County, said hes not convinced the rule change is necessary, given there is already a procedure in place. It will alleviate a step in the process, but you still have to show the necessity, said Sanguedolce. Its just a different judge making the same decision. Toohil said there are instances when a county judge might not be immediately available. The rule change would address that issue. If its the weekend and a major drug investigation is coming to a head, she said, there needs to be easier access to the courts to make sure the warrants that need to be sealed are getting sealed. The House resolution will now go to the oor for a vote. If passed, it would serve as an endorsed recommendation of the House, but would have no legal bearing on the court rule, which can only be changed by the Supreme Court. Jim Koval, a spokesman for the Administrative Ofce of Pennsylvania Courts, said the Supreme Court is considering the matter. Its not known when it will issue a ruling.

POLICE BLOTTER
WILKES-BARRE A Forty Fort man and two women are facing prostitution-related charges after city police allege they performed a lewd act inside a vehicle. Larry N.

Dejohn, 30, of Tunkhannock, are charged with promoting prostitution and open lewdness. The charges against Llewellyn, Dunn and Dejohn were led this week with District Judge Martin Kane. Police investigated a suspicious vehicle parked at the end of Laufer Lane at 12:55 p.m. on March 20. An ofcer approached the vehicle, allegedly observing Dunn and Dejohn performing a sexual act on Llewellyn, according to the criminal complaints. Dunn allegedly told police Llewellyn is their nancial supporter. KINGSTON A woman was arraigned Tuesday on charges she assaulted a former boyfriend with a cigarette. Nicole Lee Smith, 22, no address listed, was charged with three counts of possession of drug paraphernalia, and one count each of possession of a controlled substance, harass-

ment and simple assault. She was released on $5,000 unsecured bail.

He was released on $5,000 unsecured bail after his arraignment before District Judge Paul Roberts. According to charges led, police were checking a reported brush re at about 8:30 p.m. when they heard twigs breaking and observed Lenchick running down a hill. Police chased Lenchick, who ran through Tobys Creek and a taverns

parking lot on Main Street. Police from Courtdale, Edwardsville, Forty Fort, Kingston, Kingston Township and Larksville joined in the chase. Lenchick was spotted near the Fuel On Service Station, where he was captured, police said. Police allege in the criminal complaint a bag containing suspected synthetic marijuana was found in Lenchicks pocket. Lenchick allegedly told police he lit a small re near the Back Mountain Trail and ran when he saw police because he did not want to go to jail. A preliminary hearing is scheduled on April 25. KINGSTON Police are investigating a robbery at Turkey Hill on Rutter Avenue early Thursday morning. A white male, about 5 feet 10 inches tall with a medium build, demanded money from a clerk at 1:20 a.m., said Police Chief Keith Keiper.

Seroka was given a $40 store credit for the fraudulent return, according to the criminal complaint. PLYMOUTH Police arrested Edward Smith, 27, of Pierce Street, Plymouth, on charges he assaulted a woman and threatened her with a handgun.

A preliminary hearing is scheduled on April 24 before District Judge Donald Whittaker in Nanticoke. WILKES-BARRE Allan Williams, 33, of Union Street, Pittston, and Charles Shafer, 25, of Cliff Street, Pittston, were charged with retail theft last Saturday for allegedly stealing $351 in items from The Home Depot on Spring Street. Williams was released on $2,500 unsecured bail. Shafer was jailed at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $2,500 bail. Preliminary hearings are

PLAINS TWP. A succession of residents from the Keystone section of the township took to the regular monthly board of commissioners meeting to continue their ongoing ght to reduce trafc and blasting from nearby rock quarries. Complaints about speeding trucks carrying tons of rock and excessive dynamite blasts at the Wilkes-Barre Materials and Popple rock quarries have been ongoing for years. Most recently, a stop sign was erected on Ridgeway Road in an attempt to slow the trafc, but residents claim that trucks from the quarries, as well as other vehicles, are speeding right by the street signs. While the state Department of Environmental Protection has never found either of the quarries to be in violation, quarry management had volunteered to institute a siren system to alert prior to blasts. Residents and Plains ofcials, however, have claimed to have experienced blasts that either came without a siren or with a siren so low in volume that it could not be heard. The issue of the speeding trucks and blasting had died down briey during the winter, but residents now are claiming that it is as bad as ever. While Plains ofcials were sympathetic, they were able to offer little in the way of resolution. Board Chairman Ron Filipini stated his hopes to have rumble strips or some other slowing method added to the area where the stop sign recently was installed. In other trafc news, a recent trafc study to gauge the speed and volume of trafc on Abbott Street will have to be redone. The street is home to the Plains Solomon Elementary and Junior High School. Resident concerns regarding speed during, and immediately after, the school hours were not eased by the fact that the study was done on Saturday, March 30, when school was out and activity was especially low due to the Easter holiday. Plains Commissioner Robert Sax conrmed that another study would be completed, but could not say when.

Judge David Lupas said he would hold the attorneys request in abeyance, meaning his ruling on the issue will be temporarily stopped until jurors are questioned. Attorneys and Lupas agreed to see how jury selection goes and how potential jurors respond to questions about media coverage. Marsilio and Kansky asked that jurors be individually questioned before being selected to hear the case. Typically, jurors are questioned in a large group. The individual questioning will allow for attorneys to thoroughly examine whether they have heard about DeAbreus case so attorneys can select an impartial jury.

FALLS TWP. About 25 senior citizens brought the house down Friday with their freelance rhythms aimed at relieving stress and improving health. Al Cabral, a retiree who said he has been a lifelong drummer, conducted the Drum Circle at the senior center here, and the participants produced a cacophony of percussion sounds that had everyone in the room smiling. It feels good, said Eleanor Rczykowski. It makes you want to dance. Cabral said he got the idea from the work of the late Bongo Barry Bernstein, a pioneer in the therapeutic benets of drumming. Cabral, of Falls Township, said studies show drumming reduces stress and releases cells that attack cancer cells in the body. What youre going to hear today is a lot of racket, Cabral said. But the benets are amazing. Besides the

therapeutic value, drumming is relaxing and those involved immediately bond. Its a great team-builder. The seniors gathered in a circle and chose their instruments provided by Cabral. They played conga drums, claves, Brazilian and African agogo bells, ashiko drums, a shekere, a guiro, maracas, djembe drums, tambourines and more. This brings back memories of the Falls Kitchen Band, said Nancy Dietrich. After the second round of drumming, Cabral asked the group for words to describe how they feel: good, energized, relaxing, fun, and creative were some of the answers. They love it, said Twila Watkins, manager of the senior center. Theyd like to have this every month. This is the third time for them, and we keep getting more people to participate.

Three Luzerne County sheriff deputies have been promoted to lieutenants as part of interim Sheriff John Robshaws plan to create a command structure in the ofce. Nine applicants were interviewed, said Robshaw, and deputies Donald Lasoski, Eric Aigeldinger and Brian Szumski were selected. The three employees will receive $4,000 raises and

will no longer be unionized, Robshaw said. The lieutenant positions werent specied in the staff roster funded by the 2013 budget adopted by county council. The $12,000 in increases will be funded through a vacant sheriff deputy position that was budgeted at $37,120, Robshaw said. If he lls that position, it will be at a starting salary of $25,000, or $12,120 less than budgeted, he said. The ofce also has a second vacant, budgeted deputy position. Robshaw might hire clerks instead, he said, because some sheriff deputies handle clerical duties that pull them away from

prisoner transport, courtroom security and other mandated ofce services. Were still evaluating stafng needs, he said. Robshaw, who also oversees the county security department and mailroom, assumed the sheriff responsibilities in February 2012 with the implementation of home rule, which eliminated an elected sheriff post and put the department under the new Judicial Services and Records Division. Robshaw, who is paid $37,500 annually, said the lieutenants are needed because he is the only management-level employee authorized to give orders in the sheriffs department.

The department once had a tiered command structure that evolved into two chief deputy positions under the sheriff. The chief deputy management posts were eliminated in 2010 and 2011. The three lieutenants will be assigned to head specic divisions and will have authority to enforce rules, make decisions and impose disciplinary action, he said. I feel very fortunate to have them take on this responsibility and be able to help us lead the department in the right direction, Robshaw said, citing their

WILKES-BARRE The citys solution to a bill due in the short-term was a long-term bond to cover the money borrowed to fund its pension. The $5.23 million bond with a variable interest rate approved by council Thursday night gives the city some breathing room so it wont have to draw from its general fund to make the principal and interest payments over the next two years, said Drew McLaughlin, administrative coordinator for the city. It will give us immediate debt service relief, McLaughlin said. The city, after consulting with its nancial advisers, opted to repackage and renance a 2005 bond, getting a new rate of 2.28 percent interest and extending its maturity by one year to 2025. The time was right with the reduction in interest rates, making the bonds callable or redeemable prior to maturity, McLaughlin said. The old rate was 4.8 percent. The former administration of Mayor Tom McGroarty issued $40 million bonds in 1998 to fund the pension, McLaughlin said. Its been paid down to about $27 million since Mayor Tom Leighton took ofce in 2004. The move adds to the citys debt service by a cost of $73,000 and makes available for other expenses money that would have gone to pay the debt, McLaughlin said. Two payments were due this year on the pension debt under the old schedule; a $736,154 interest payment on May 15, and a $1.1 million principal payment on Nov. 15. The new bond payment schedule calls for an annual principal payment and quarterly interest payments. The interest payment moves up and down with the market. Paperwork provided by PNC Bank on the terms and conditions of the bond set the maximum interest rate at 15 percent. At that rate, the interest would amount to $5.67 million, making the total debt service $10.91 million. The city would be penalized with a 2 percent increase in the interest rate if its Standard and Poors rating goes below BBB+. Last November, when the city was struggling with revenue shortfalls, S&P downgraded its credit rating to A- from A. The rating maintained investment-grade status for the city. The city is required to include the maximum rate as a possible worstcase scenario, McLaughlin said. In the citys extra-conservative view the rate should not exceed 3.5 percent, he said.

Aqua PA investing millions into local infrastructure


The countys second largest water system has allocated $3.5 million for pipe work and an additional $1 million for plant work in the Luzerne County portion of its service territory. Thats right in line with the amount spent annually in the county over the past ve years. As Bryn Mawr-based Aqua America Inc., continues to acquire or take over water systems throughout the state some, at the Department of Environmental Protections behest its nding itself making millions of dollars in upgrades annually. Some projects are simply to bring up the systems to basic standards. Of the systems acquired in recent years in the county, Anthony Donatori, the companys vice president, said with the exception of Sand Springs, theyve all been neglected equally. During a visit to The Times Leader this week, company ofcials spoke of the hardships of taking over systems that have either been abandoned or run so poorly the state has been required to come in and nd a new operator. Seldom is there one meeting our standards that we would be buying, said Nicholas DeBenedictis, the companys chairman and chief executive ofcer.

The nature of the business is that were investing more than were making, but eventually when we x everything, well catch up, he said. Its a matter of delayed revenues.

been helped by others will return the favor.

After a few years of acquiring systems in the county, regional manager Patrick Burke said there are no plans this year for any new systems in Luzerne County to come under the Aqua umbrella. Instead, the company will focus on upgrading existing systems. Aquas 2013 infrastructure improvement projects underscore our continued efforts to renew and rehabilitate our water and wastewater systems and

replace the aging areas of our distribution systems that deliver water to our customers throughout the commonwealth, said Aqua Pennsylvania President Steve Tagert. These types of investments are critical to ensuring that we are maintaining our systems and protecting public health by complying with state and federal water quality regulations and providing reliable water and wastewater service to our customers in the most efcient way possible. There are 16 municipalities in Luzerne County that are served by Aqua Pennsylvania, including portions of the Back Mountain and Mountain Top areas. Among the projects announced for this year: Beech Mountain, Butler Township, replacing 6,500 feet of 6-inch PVC and transite pipe with 8-inch ductile at a cost of $715,000. Midway Manor, Kingston Township on Carverton Road and Meadowcrest Avenue, replacing 6,200 feet of 4-inch transite pipe with 8-inch ductile at a cost of $1 million. Union Township, replacing 2,000 feet of 4-inch transite

pipe at a cost of $400,000. Laurel Lakes development in Rice Township, replacing 2,400 feet of 4- and 2-inch PVC pipe with 8-inch ductile at a cost of $262,000. Applewood development in Dallas Township, upgrading the well station at a cost of $180,000. Upgrading the Rhodes Terrace well station at Harveys Lake for $160,000. The $4.5 million in Luzerne County upgrades are part of the companys announced plans to make $239 million in infrastructure improvements in Pennsylvania this year. The bulk of the work $185 million will take place in the companys Southeastern Pennsylvania operating division, which comprises parts of Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Montgomery counties. Aqua America, one of the largest U.S.-based, publicly traded water utilities, recently announced that it has completed the sale of 67 water systems and 28 wastewater systems in 18 counties in Florida to three separate companies, including Florida Governmental Utility Authority for a total of $52.9 million. Its part of the companys goal to sell all of Aqua Americas operations in Florida by the end of the year. When all of its Florida sales are closed, Aqua America will have concentrated its regulated operations to eight states: Pennsylvania, Ohio, North Carolina, Illinois, Texas, New Jersey, Indiana and Virginia.

NANTICOKE Seven out of the nine directors of the Greater Nanticoke Area School Board apparently believed that a sign displaying the name of Superintendent Anthony Perrone at the schools parking lot entrance had been paid for through private donations. Only two members of the board, Cindy Donlin and Jeff Kozlofski, seemingly had knowledge that the sign, which cost $4,346.72, actually had come from the school boards general funds, according to accusations traded during Thursdays school board meeting. The directors who claim they had been kept in the dark until recently pressed for information at the meeting. The question of how the sign was paid for had been raised last week to board President Ryan Verazin. He questioned the head of the GNA school grounds, Frank Grevera, who stated that he was told that the money had come from the general funds, Verazin said. Verazin apologized to anyone who he had unknowingly given false information to regarding the sign. Board member Tony Prushinski said that he would have personally gone out to solicit donations for the sign if he had known that the funds were coming from the taxpayers (through the general funds). In another disputed matter, during the previous wrestling season, Donlin and Kozlofski purportedly had a camera installed in the wrestling room without notifying the rest of the board members. Donlin stated that she was concerned due to some alleged incidents in the room. An assistant coach found the camera, and it was removed the next day. Board member Frank Shepanski Jr. declared that Donlin and Kozlofski should resign from the board. The board meets next at 7 p.m. on May 9.

IN BRIEF

Three Calif. teens arrested in alleged assault


By MARTHA MENDOZA AP National Writer

Suicide victims family seeks info from students


SARATOGA, Calif. Family members of a 15-year-old California girl who killed herself after photos of a sexual assault surfaced online said on Friday they suspect the attackers tried to destroy evidence. Audrie Potts family went into seclusion after three 16-year-old boys were arrested on Thursday on suspicion of sexual battery in the assault of the girl while she was passed out at a party. Familys attorney Robert Allard said the arrests reopened a wound. The family claim was posted on a Facebook page for a foundation set up in the girls name. It did not provide further details on what type of evidence might have been targeted by the suspects. However, it asked any students with information to come forward. The Santa Clara County sheriffs ofce did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the familys allegation. The Pott family was not alone in wrestling with such circumstances. Pott posted on Facebook that her life was ruined, worst day ever, and hanged herself eight days after being sexually assaulted while passed out at a party, Allard said. For the next eight months, until Thursdays arrests, her family struggled to gure out what happened to their soccer loving, artistic, horse crazy daughter, whose gentle smile, long dark hair and shining eyes belied a struggling soul. The family has been trying to understand why their loving daughter would have taken her life at such a young age and to make sure that those responsible would be held accountable, Allard said. After an extensive investigation that we have conducted on behalf of the family, there is no doubt in our minds that the victim, then only 15 years old, was savagely assaulted by her fellow high school students while she lay on a bed completely unconscious, he said. Allard said students used celphones to share photos of the assaults and the images went viral on the Internet. Santa Clara County sheriffs Lt. Jose Cardoza said two of the teens were arrested at Saratoga High School and the third, a former Saratoga High student, at Christopher High School in Gilroy. The names of the suspects were not released because they are minors. Details about the assault were also not released. Cardoza said the suspects were booked into juvenile hall and face two felonies and one misdemeanor each. The lieutenant said the investigation is ongoing.

Brits, Americans have a friendly feud over park, tongues in cheeks

Means testing for Medicare

President Barack Obamas plan to raise Medicare premiums for upperincome seniors would create ve new income brackets to squeeze more revenue for the government from the top tiers of retirees, the administration revealed Friday. First details of the plan emerged after Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius testied to Congress on the presidents budget. As released two days earlier, the budget included only a vague description of a controversial proposal that has grown more ambitious since Obama last oated it. Means testing has been part of Medicare since the George W. Bush administration, but ramping it up is bound to stir controversy. Republicans are intrigued, but most Democrats dont like the idea. If the proposal were in effect today, a retiree making $85,000 would pay about $168 a month for outpatient coverage, compared to $146.90 currently.

Kerry warns North Korea

SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA

Tiny battle lines are being drawn in a whimsical British-American dispute over which country has the worlds smallest park. Two feet in diameter, Portlands Mill Ends Park, shown above, holds the title of world smallest park in the Guinness Book of World Records. But a rival has emerged Princes Park, more than 5,000 miles away in the English town of Burntwood.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry delivered a stark warning to North Korea on Friday not to test-re a midrange missile, while tamping down anxiety caused by a new U.S. intelligence report suggesting signicant progress in the communist regimes nuclear weapons program. Kicking off four days of talks in an East Asia beset by increasing North Korean threats, Kerry told reporters in Seoul that Pyongyang and its enigmatic young leader would only increase their isolation if they launched the missile that American ofcials believe has a range of some 2,500 miles or enough to reach the U.S. territory of Guam. If Kim Jong Un decides to launch a missile, whether its across the Sea of Japan or some other direction, he will be choosing willfully to ignore the entire international community, Kerry told reporters.

A big battle over some very small spots


By TERRENCE PETTY Associated Press

Tribal masks auctioned

PARIS

PORTLAND, Ore. The British and the Americans are quarreling albeit with tongues in cheek over territory again, this time over who has the worlds smallest park. One, in Portland, Ore., is essentially a concrete planter, 2-feet in diameter, with soil and some vegetation, and the Guinness World Records book says its the smallest. The other is about 5,000 miles away, in England. Those guys dont claim to have a physically smaller park theirs is 15 feet by 30 feet. But they are disputing whether Portlands is a park at all. What started as two Brits stunt to

drum up publicity for a charity run at their park sparked some cross-pond banter. One online commenter wrote: If thats a park then my window box should take the title. Someone who said they were from Portland replied: Yes, but our park has leprechauns. Does yours? Leprechauns? Yes, thats right. The faux-feud has helped unearth the curious story of a Portland newspaper columnists quest to get the park declared the smallest and his claim that it was home to leprechauns. The tale stretches back to 1946, when newspaperman Dick Fagan returned from World War II. From his ofce at the Oregon Journal newspaper, he could see a hole in the street where a light post was supposed to be

erected. Fagan got tired of looking at the hole and planted owers in it. An Irishman with a vivid imagination, Fagan wrote about the park in his columns spinning tales about leprechauns who lived there. Somehow, Guinness proclaimed Mill Ends Park the worlds smallest park in 1971. Jamie Panas, the record-keepers spokeswoman, said she didnt know how that determination was made. But she said the entry in the Guinness database reads, in part: It was designated as a city park on 17 March 1948 at the behest of the city journalist Dick Fagan (USA) for snail races and as a colony for leprechauns. St. Patricks Day ceremonies have been held there. Strange objects have appeared mysteriously within it a

miniature swimming pool with a diving board, a tiny Ferris wheel and a UFO. Portlands littlest park entered headlines when a British sports management company called KV Events, based in Licheld, north of Birmingham, was promoting the worlds shortest fun run, around Princes Park in Burntwood. The park has the Guinness title of the United Kingdoms smallest park. It has a fence, a bench and three trees. Promoters Paul Grifn and Kevin Wilson decided to have some fun, launching a faux challenge to Portlands claim guring that would generate publicity for the race and for the charity the race is intended to benet.

In a chaotic auction repeatedly interrupted by protests, dozens of Native American tribal masks were sold Friday after a French court ignored the objections of the Hopi tribe and the U.S. government. The total tally was $1.2 million, with the most expensive, the Mother Crow, selling for $209,000 more than three times the pre-sale estimate. Of the 70 masks up for sale, one was bought by an association to give back to the Hopis, the Drouot auction house said. Advocates for the Hopi tribe had argued in court the masks have special status and are not art they represent their ancestors spirits.

S. Sudan exports approved

South Sudans president says he and Sudans president have agreed to a resumption of oil exports and border trade. Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir traveled to South Sudan on Friday for the rst time since the south peacefully broke away from Sudan in 2011. South Sudan President Salva Kiir said the two presidents agreed to the free movement of people and goods across the border.

NAIROBI, Kenya The U.S. ofcial who oversees American efforts to counter al-Qaida and other militants in the online battleeld keeps a quote on his desk from a Most Wanted jihadi from Americas South. The Alabama native wrote that the war of narratives has become even more important than the war of navies, napalm and knives. I keep that on my desk because that is true, Alberto Fernandez, the top ofcial at the State Departments Center for Strategic Counterterrorism Communications, told The Associated Press. It doesnt mean I think hes a great thinker or anything. I just thought that was right. The wanted ghter behind the quote is Omar Hammami, who joined the Somali militant group al-Shabab about seven years ago and is a prolic user of Twitter, where he nostalgically posts about America like the U.S. childrens television show Reading Rainbow as well as analyses of al-Shababs battleeld strategy. Fernandez Digital Outreach Team has

had online exchanges with Hammami in Arabic, though Fernandez says that while Hammami is engaging, silly and ippant in English, his Arabic is staged and formal, as if someone is doing it for him. One example of that ippancy: After the U.S. recently announced a $5 million reward for Hammami he responded on Twitter: As Im a bit low on cash, how much is my left leg going for? Hammami, Fernandez says, has responded to the U.S. online efforts in supercial ways he hasnt engaged in a substantive way. We are focused on specics on al-Qaida/ al-Shabab actions in Somalia, their violence and brutality against the Somali people, the disconnect between their words and their actions, Fernandez said in a telephone interview from Washington. A week ago they beheaded an 80-year-old Somali imam for disagreeing with them. The Digital Outreach Team tweets, posts updates on Facebook and uploads video to YouTube in Arabic, Punjabi, Somali and Urdu. The 50-member team is comprised of Americans and foreign nationals who are native speakers of the four languages.

Anti-Thatcher song climbs chart, BBC nds itself in the hot seat
By RAPHAEL SATTER Associated Press

LONDON The BBC came up with an awkward compromise Friday over Ding Dong! The Witch Is Dead, a song that is zooming up the music charts in a posthumous protest against Margaret Thatcher. The online campaign to drive the Wizard of Oz song to the No. 1 spot on the U.K. singles chart was launched by Thatcher critics shortly after the former prime minister died Monday of a stroke at age 87. Opponents have tried to buy as many versions of the song as possible to protest the former British leaders divisive policies. As of Friday, the song was No. 1 on British iTunes and in the top ve of the music chart used by the BBC to compile its weekly radio countdown. The song campaign strongly divided opinion in the U.K.,

with many people saying it was in bad taste and calling on the BBC to promise not to broadcast the song. The BBC usually broadcasts the best-selling hits on its ofcial music chart show, but some lawmakers from Thatchers Conservative Party had urged the broadcaster to drop the song from its countdown. Others warned that such a move would be censoring dissent. Under pressure from all sides, the BBC came up with a decision that can be criticized by both Thatcher fans and critics. It said it would broadcast only part of the song on Sundays radio show, along with a news item explaining why it was a hit this week. No song should be banned by the BBC unless its lyrics are pre-watershed, said former Conservative lawmaker Louise Mensch.

said no prior drumming experience is necessary. He said its all improvised and he brings the instruments. Ive read where drumming bolsters the immune system, said Cabral. We dont follow the protocol used in studies with outpatients. This is for the community at-large. You will see a lot of smiles and some will leave here with tears of joys in their eyes. Dr. Barry Bittman is a neurologist who advocates for group drumming, according to the Mind-Body Wellness Center website. The website states, based on Bittmans conviction, that recreational music-making is an effective therapeutic strategy in conventional medical settings. He led a team of researchers who investigated the biological effects of the group drumming protocol he co-developed. While the research continues, Cabral said all he knows is that participants enjoy the hour-long exercise. It can get chaotic, he said. Some people take it very seriously. Some keep their eyes closed. But nearly all of them are happy. City police said they were informed on Friday that Crystal Barna, 32, no permanent address, who was wanted on failure to appear in court on felony forgery charges, was at the Hazleton Motor Inn. Police said they subsequently discovered Barna in a room with Amanda Gaydos, 25, of Branch Street, West Hazleton, and Anthony Gutierrez, of East Mine Street, Hazleton. Police also discovered suspected crack cocaine and drug paraphernalia in the room, they said. All three were charged with possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia.

tient, British headmaster and Bing Crosbys golf club. As a kid, I always wanted to be lots of things, he told U.S. News & World Report in 1988. I was a Walter Mitty type. I wanted to be in the French Foreign Legion, a detective, a doctor, a test pilot with a scarf, a sherman who hauled in a tremendous marlin after a 12-hour ght. The humor most often was based in reality his characters Maude Frickert and Elwood P. Suggins, for example, were based on people Winters knew growing up in Ohio. A devotee of Groucho Marx and Laurel and Hardy, Winters and his free-for-all brand of humor inspired Johnny Carson, Billy Crystal, Tracey Ullman and Lily Tomlin, among many others. But Williams and Carrey are his best-known followers. First he was my idol, then he was my mentor and amazing friend. Ill miss him huge. He was my Comedy Buddha. Long live the Buddha, Williams said in a statement Friday. Williams helped introduce Winters to new fans in 1981 as the son of Williams goofball alien and his earthling wife in the nal season of ABCs Mork and Mindy. The two often strayed from the script. The best stuff was before the cameras were on, when he was open and free to create, Williams once said. Jonathan would just blow the doors off. Carson, meanwhile, lifted Winters Maude Frickert character almost intact for the longrunning Aunt Blabby character he portrayed on The Tonight Show. Winters won two Grammys: One for his work on The Little Prince album in 1975 and another for his Crank Calls comedy album in 1996. He received the Kennedy Centers second Mark Twain Prize for Humor in 1999, a year after Richard Pryor. Winters made television history in 1956 when RCA broadcast the rst public demonstration of color videotape on The Jonathan Winters Show. The comedian quickly realized the possibilities, author David Hajdu wrote in The New York Times in 2006. He soon used video technology to appear as two characters, bantering back and forth, seemingly in the studio at the same time. You could say he invented the video stunt.

Obama took home less pay last year


WASHINGTON (AP) President Barack Obama made less in 2012 than in any other year since taking ofce, with about 40 percent of the nearly $609,000 in income that he and rst lady Michelle Obama reported coming from book sales. Obama, who renewed his call for higher taxes on the wealthy in the budget he released Wednesday, paid $112,214 in taxes last year, putting his effective federal tax rate at 18.4 percent. The Obamas donated almost one-quarter of their income to charity, helping to lower their overall tax bill, according to tax returns released by the White House. Most of the $608,611 that the Obamas reported in adjusted gross income came from the presidents salary, as he reported $394,840 in wages. An additional $258,772 came from royalties from his books.

A memorial service will be held at the HowellLussi Funeral Home, 509 Wyoming Ave., West Pittston, at the convenience of the family. Interment will be in Wyoming Cemetery.

Surplus may provide short-term Pa. pension relief


Lawmakers might divert extra shrink, so do the payments. In the year that ended June $140 million in unspent school 30, $69 million of the state appayroll. propriation for school districts
By PETER JACKSON Associated Press

HARRISBURG Smallerthan-expected payrolls for many school districts have left a surplus of state funds that could help ease Pennsylvanias public pension woes and also undercut legislative support in the rst test of Gov. Tom Corbetts pension-reform agenda. The state reimburses school districts for an average of 56 percent of their payrolls. If payrolls

had not been spent. That money was earmarked for pension reimbursements, and the trend of shrinking payrolls appears to be continuing this year, according to the Public School Employees Retirement System, the statewide school employee pension fund. So lawmakers could have an extra $140 million to spend as they scrutinize competing demands for scarce dollars in the state budget for the year that starts July 1, rough estimates

by PSERS indicated. System ofcials cautioned Thursday that the amount of any surplus this year could vary according to payroll growth during the next three months. Some legislators want to plow any such surplus back into the states share of pension costs instead of renancing that obligation. Corbett has proposed renancing to free up $175 million to help balance the 2013-14 budget and reduce the short-term cost to taxpayers. Many lawmakers are reluctant to revisit that strategy so soon after a similar renancing in 2010.

Tapping the reimbursement surplus would provide the lions share of the savings from Corbetts proposal with much less impact on other spending priorities or paying down debt, making it a politically attractive alternative to the only component of the governors plan that requires action this year. If thats determined to be real money, I think youll see people coalesce around that, said Steve Miskin, spokesman for the House GOP majority. Drew Crompton, chief of staff to Senate President Pro Tempore Joe Scarnati, R-Jefferson, acknowledged that a sizeable sur-

plus of reimbursement money is not a wild rumor, but that he is still analyzing its political implications. Word of the surplus also has spurred discussion within organizations with an interest in the outcome of the pension debate. Its encouraging news and, if there were little reason for lawmakers to support Corbetts pension plan before, theres even less reason to do so now, said Wythe Keever of the Pennsylvania State Education Association, the states largest teachers union. Steve Robinson, spokesman for the Pennsylvania School

Boards Association, warned that the windfall might become an excuse for legislative inaction on pension reforms. Now is not the time to let up on any reform that may take place this year, he said. Corbetts far-reaching plan is designed to reduce the cost of the states two major public pension funds PSERS and the State Employees Retirement System by $12 billion over 30 years. Those savings would be achieved primarily by reducing the future benets of more than 370,000 current school and state employees.

Pa. abortion clinic workers testify they saw few options


By MARYCLAIRE DALE Associated Press

SMOOTH SKATING

PHILADELPHIA They say they were just doing what the boss trained them to do. But eight former employees of a run-down West Philadelphia abortion clinic now face prison time for the work they did for Dr. Kermit Gosnell. Three have pleaded guilty to third-degree murder. And Gosnell, 72, is on trial in the deaths of a patient and seven babies allegedly born alive. In testimony at the capital murder trial this past month, an unlicensed doctor and untrained aides described long, chaotic days at the clinic. They said they performed grueling, often gruesome work for little more than minimum wage, paid by Gosnell under the table. But for most, it was the best job they could nd. Unlicensed doctor Stephen Massof, 50, of Pittsburgh, said he could not get a U.S. medical residency after nishing medical school in Grenada and went

to work for Gosnell as a backup plan after six years running a bar. He admitted killing two babies by snipping their necks, as he said Gosnell taught him to do. Eileen ONeill, 56, had worked as a doctor in Louisiana but relinquished her medical license in 2000 to deal with post-traumatic stress syndrome, according to her 2011 grand jury testimony. She is the only employee on trial with Gosnell, ghting false billing and racketeering charges. According to one colleague, ONeill was increasingly upset at the line of people who came to Gosnells adjacent medical clinic for painkillers. And she was angry that he wasnt helping her regain her license. She said: All I do is break my neck for him all the time, and he never does anything for me. Im going to have to do something about it, front desk worker Tina Baldwin testied this week, recalling a conversation with ONeill.

OTHER OPINION: AURORA SHOOTER

HE WAY the death penalty is applied in the United States makes no sense, and there is no clearer evidence of this than the decision last week to seek it against James Holmes, the man accused of murdering 12 people and injuring 58 others in an Aurora, Colo., movie theater last summer. Holmes is guilty. He was arrested outside the theater with a stash of weapons, and his attorneys recently wrote in court papers that he would agree to plead guilty in exchange for a life sentence, without the possibility of parole. Its an offer the district attorney of Arapahoe County, George Brauchler, should have taken. Instead, the people of Aurora, along with hundreds of surviving victims and family members, will face decades of uncertainty and legal battles. They will pay millions of their tax dollars in court costs that could instead help treat the mentally ill and provide assistance to crime victims. The death penalty in this country is immoral, costly and arbitrary. It has to end. Until it does, authorities must use common sense, taking into account emotional and nancial costs as they decide how to apply it. Death penalty supporters say the real issue is that the process should be sped up, that those convicted of capital crimes are taking advantage of their due process rights. But that argument fails to reckon with some

Lock him up, throw away key

very real complexities: That we have, most likely, executed innocent men. That capital punishment is applied unevenly based on geography, race and class. And that prosecution of capital crimes committed by the mentally ill require an extraordinary level of scrutiny. The last issue is applicable in Holmes case. The man is, almost by denition, mentally ill. Its nearly impossible to imagine a sane person committing these horric acts. The Supreme Court ruled in 1986 that executing mentally ill prisoners those who are unable to understand their punishment is unconstitutional. Its essential to have a thorough and thoughtful legal process for making this determination. Some surviving victims, along with friends and family members of the deceased, wish to see Holmes executed. Thats understandable, but should it be the nal word? Media reports indicate that other victims, friends and family feel differently and would prefer to put this behind them. Whose opinion gets more weight? Wed argue: neither. Ofcials charged with making this choice should base it on whats best for their community. Pursuing the death penalty with no guarantee of the result is not worth the nancial cost or the emotional anguish of reliving this event, year after year. The government should accept Holmes plea, lock him up and destroy the key.

OTHER OPINION: HEALTH

Were too hyper with diagnoses


children who come to school with their minds so stimulated nd it hard to concentrate. Sometimes children, again, boys in particular, act up so often a teacher insists their behavior is abnormal and recommends medical intervention. Some children, maybe too many, are subsequently diagnosed with Attention Decit Hyperactivity Disorder. More than one in 10 American schoolchildren, 6.4 million between ages 4 and 17, have been diagnosed with ADHD, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Two-thirds of these children have been prescribed drugs like Adderall and Ritalin to calm them down by improving their concentration. Many diagnoses of hyperactivity in children are being made too quickly. More care must be taken in prescribing and monitoring the use of drugs.
The Philadelphia Inquirer

S MUCH as teaching has changed over the past 50 years, its basics, as typically applied in American elementary school classrooms, are essentially the same as they were in 1963. Two dozen boys and girls, give or take a few, sit in arranged rows or a circle of chairs with desks and interact with a teacher presenting lessons involving reading or math. That could get boring 50 years ago, leading students to nod off, gaze out the window, pass notes, or trade punches when the teacher looked the other way. Imagine how much more boring it must be for todays children, who the night before, if not that morning, were likely engaged in all manner of electronically stimulating activity from watching TV, to downloading Ipad games, to trying to beat their PlayStation at tennis. Is it any wonder that many

nsulting and putting down the Times Leader newspaper is low and shallow. Did you ever hear of Freedom of Speech, or Freedom of the Press? Your article is about me, not the newspaper. Your comments go north, south, east and west. Your words, Mayor Kuren, are unfounded and totally garbled at best. I believe, in my opinion, the Times Leader, the state auditor general and the FBI should come in and do a full investigation into the Wilkes-Barre Township administration and the Wilkes-Barre Township Volunteer Fire Company, a full and complete investigation. Listen, Mayor Kuren, you are not a veteran so do not associate your name with real veterans like myself who has served and fought for my town, state, and country, proudly, being a political bum that you are, leave my family out of your personal attack against me as a private citizen, or you may end up in court. You and your cronies are scared and running amuck. Mayor Kuren, basketball is seasonal, senior citizens in council chambers. What a disgrace, no library, no swimming pool, no nothing, due to your lack of communication or foresight for better good and future of Wilkes-Barre Township. All you have are bobble heads and yes people, but you are being observed and monitored now, arent you? Wilkes-Barre Township road crew, you are being scorned by Mayor Kuren. Police and administration do more work than you guys. You guys are being insulted. When a mayor like Kuren attacks a private citizen, taxpayer, and property owner, such as me, he lacks common sense. Times Leader, keep up the great work and freedom of the press.

Let science, not lobbying, be guide to school menus T


he article County lags in health rankings that published on March 20, 2013 highlighted where Luzerne County ranked in comparison to its neighbors and the rest of the state in terms of health. Amid all of the numbers, I was struck most by the 30 percent obesity rate. As a retired general and member of Mission: Readiness, Im concerned about obesity for national security reasons. Its the leading medical dis-qualier for military service, with 1 in 4 young Americansalmost 6 million 17 to 24 year oldstoo overweight to join the military. Our nations security relies on having military members who are t to serve. Fortunately, there is something we can do. The U.S. Department of Agriculture is in the process of updating guidelines for what types of foods are sold in schools vending machines and a la carte lines. Updated guidelines that reect the latest nutrition science will ensure that children have access to healthier foods. Unfortunately, previous efforts to update standards for healthier foods were compromised by food industry lobbyists. As a result, schools around the nation can now count the tomato sauce on a slice of pizza as a serving of vegetables. Strong science-based guidelines would be a big step toward reducing the 400 billion calories that students consume in junk food every year in school. With 33 percent of U.S. children already at risk to become overweight or obese and 25 percent of children ages ve to 10 already exhibiting early warning signs for heart disease, we need to keep these guidelines free of food industry interference. If nothing else, the food and beverage industry needs to join parents and their children, schools and government in the war on obesity. Our children deserve nothing less.

While there is currently only one terminal from which to process and export liqueed natural gas (LNG), applications for 18 other terminals have been led with the Department of Energy. Before long, there will be lots of natural gas export terminals to process lots of American natural gas bound for lots of foreign countries. So much for the gas industry claims of a hundred years of independence from foreign sources of energy. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, American consumers will see an increase in natural gas and electricity costs as the natural gas is exported. So much for the gas industry claims of low energy prices for Americans. The Sierra Club, in a letter to the Department of Energy, stated that exporting natural gas would not benet the American taxpayer but would benet a small minority of wealthy corporations that will own natural gas resources or LNG export infrastructure. So much for the natural gas boom being good for Americans. So, the natural gas industry is extracting huge amounts of natural gas from America that will be sold on the global market to the highest bidder. Americans will see their energy costs increase while the amount of domestically available energy resources will decrease. Is this a strategic, responsible, forward thinking energy policy?

would like to know why we are the people who are constantly accepting the judgment of the house and senate with all their means of putting off a vote on a specic item. Three quarters of time they are not in their seats to vote. What kind of government do we have that is not available for a vote! This supposed government is not worth the salary, plus, all the things that they get for doing nothing for the people. I have a suggestion to solve the problem. Only 0.5 percent of the Senate may be absent each day. Only 0.1 percent of the House may be absent each day from their seat. Senators and Congress men and women must pay for their transportation; no private cars. They pay for their gas, oil, and all repairs. They also pay for all their meals, whereever they are. No

he natural gas extraction industry is anxious to export Americas natural gas to foreign countries, according to industry trade journals. The price of natural gas in the U.S. is about $4 while the price in Asia is close to $18. This is a market opportunity which the natural gas industry cant take advantage of yet - but will very soon.

ast week, a letter to the editor questioned Senator Caseys decision to support same sex-marriage in the context of his Catholicism. As a public ofcial who is a Roman Catholic, Senator Casey understands that the Catholic Church strongly opposes same-sex marriage. He has said that he respects the Churchs position on this and many other issues. He has also said, on numerous occasions, that he commends the good work done by the Church on behalf of the least, the last, and the lost, especially the poor. He has been very clear in his 16 years as an elected ofcial that his Catholic faith has always informed and inspired him, but it does not specically dictate how he votes on matters of public policy as a representative of 12.8 million Pennsylvanians of many faiths. Senator Casey has emphasized that he is supporting same-sex marriage as a secular institution. He rmly believes that neither the Catholic Church, nor any other denomination, should be required to confer religious or sacramental approval contrary to the tenets of its faith. As he has done throughout his career, Senator Casey will continue to defend the religious freedom of all faiths, including the Catholic Church.

Selenskis defense attorneys again appeal for further payment


By SHEENA DELAZIO sdelazio@timesleader.com

SelenSki
Continued from Page 1A

WILKES-BARRE On the same day that the defense team for accused murderer Hugo Selenski doubled, the lawyers led another an appeal to the state Superior Court regarding not being paid for representing their client. Attorneys Shelley Centini and Edward Rymsza as well as newly acquired attorneys Bruce Merenstein and Samuel Silver, both of Philadelphia, led an appeal to the high court after county Judge Fred Pierantoni set a cap on funding for Selenskis representation and denied any further payment until a trial is held.

Selenski is awaiting trial in the May 2002 deaths of Michael Kerkowski and Tammy Fassett, both 38. Their bodies were unearthed from the property where Selenski was living in Kingston Township in June 2003. Merenstein and Silver entered their appearance as Selenskis newest co-counsel for the limited purpose of the appeal that accompanied Fridays lings. Last week, Centini and Rymsza asked to be removed from Selenskis case, citing they havent been paid for legal work since October. Pierantoni scheduled a hearing for April 18 on that request. In court papers, the attorneys

say they both agreed to hourly rates that were an enormous concession in that they were much less than they would have charged a private client. The original court order that appointed Centini to defend Selenski says she was to earn $85 per hour without benets with a cap of $40,000, equal to about 470 hours of work. The attorneys met a cap set by Pierantoni and made subsequent requests for more pay. In October 2012, the attorneys said, Pierantoni made a nal cap stopping any further payment. On March 13, a hearing was held in which Pierantoni made alterations to payments the attorneys would receive, with

Centini getting $400 a day during a jury trial for Selenski and Rymsza $300 a day. But, those changes did not include signicant sums of money owed to (Centini and Rymsza) for their hourly work already performed from October to the present and that they will not receive one further dollar until the rst day of trial. The appeal Silver and Merenstein will be handling with Centini and Rymsza addresses a denial to amend a budget for Selenskis case and the nal cap set by Pierantoni. The attorneys also led an in forma pauperis statement Friday, which means in the

character or manner of a pauper in Latin. The status entitles a person to waive costs of ling court documents and sometimes in criminal cases, the appointment of counsel. (Selenski) was originally approved for court-appointed representation in this case, the ling says. (Selenski) remains incarcerated. Counsel is aware of no substantial change in (Selenskis) nancial condition since such date. Records from the Luzerne County Controllers Ofce show $90,869 has been paid to Centini since she was appointed by the court in January 2012.

were announced. An amended complaint was led against him for the Fassett/Kerkowski homicides in May 2006. Over the years Selenskis trial has frequently been delayed due to appeals, most of which were led by his lawyers. Investigators believe Fassett and Kerkowski were strangled to death inside Kerkowskis Hunlock Township home on May 3, 2002. Centini and Rymsza last week led a petition seeking to withdraw from the case, claiming they have not been paid for their work. They were hired as independent contractors to defend Selenski in January 2012.

er it, he said. Al, who lives in Dallas, purchased the property at a sheriffs sale in February. He does not really want to cut the tree, he said, but has been advised to by his insurance company. In fact, he said, the company doesnt want to insure the property if the tree is not removed. A large branch that overhangs the house already has damaged the roof, he said. In order for the house to be ready for tenants by June 1, he said, at least the branch, if not the entire tree, should be removed so the roof can be repaired. If other companies were willing to give him coverage, Al said, he would gladly consider buying insurance from them. I love the smell of fresh air, he said, explaining he knows trees benet the environment and that he would plant new ones if the old one came down. But the champion tree is healthy, said Ben Hardy, the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources forester for Luzerne County, who is familiar with the swamp white oak I would advise keeping it, just for the shade and the coolness in the summer, Hardy said. That house doesnt need air-conditioning. Oaks are particularly sturdy, forester Vinnie Cotrone of the Penn State Cooperative Extension said. He also is familiar with the tree and said it is unlikely to fall. If the tree is spared, several neighbors will be happy, including next-door resident Billie Ranaldo, whose late mother,

Dorothy, and stepfather, Andy Budash, used to own the property and lovingly tended the tree. To me, the tree is like a sacred trust. Its like a gift from God, Andy Budash told The Times Leader in 1994, when the tree was listed as a co-champ in the forestry associations registry. At the time, Budash said he and his wife spent several hundred dollars a year feeding, spraying, pruning and maintaining the tree which so far has survived black ants, a lightning strike in 1983 and been cabled for support. That cable supports the big limb that stretches over the house. Weidlich believes the branch is secure, but nevertheless would be happy to remove it to save the tree. Ranaldo hopes that plan works. Its a gorgeous tree, she said, adding she had considered buying the property next door and razing the bungalow-style CLARK VAN ORDEN/ THE TIMES LEADER house just to save the old oak, but the Joe Weidlich of Weidlich Bros. Tree Service stands near a swamp white oak price was $22,500 and that was just a tree that is estimated to be more than 300 years old. He would like to save it. little too high. Forensic analysis of the video included Letteers Pontiac and two other Pontiac Grand Ams being recorded by the same surveillance cameras. Grant Fredericks, of Forensic Video Solutions, found differences in the three Pontiac headlight spread patterns, forming an opinion that Letteers Pontiac was the car recorded driving away from the scene, according to the complaint. Investigators served a search warrant on Letters Pontiac after it was seized on Jan. 4 based on alleged statements his girlfriend, Abigail Traver, said to her friend, identied as Witness #2. Traver allegedly told her friend that Letteer confessed to hitting and killing someone, the complaint says. After the witness spoke to police, Traver on Jan. 4 sent her friend a text message, saying, I cant (expletive) believe you, according to the complaint. The complaint states Traver also sent a text message to Letteer the same day: I said something about it to (witness #2) and she told. Im so sorry Tom. I didnt mean to do this to you I wouda never thought shed say anything and Im so sorry. Salavantis said she could not say if Traver will be charged. At this point, I cant give that information, she said, but we are still doing the investigation. Wilkes-Barre Mayor Tom Leighton issued a statement on Friday commending Salavantis and her staff, Luzerne County detectives, state police and Wilkes-Barre police investigators for their perseverance and commitment to bring justice to the family of Kevin Miller. Leighton called the case a perfect example of effective coordination among law enforcement agencies and the utilization of new technologies to ensure that heinous crimes do not go unsolved. On behalf of the entire city, said Leighton, our thoughts and prayers remain with Kevins parents, siblings, and extended family as they have shown nothing but grace and patience in the midst of this terrible ordeal.

The fatal crash sparked a massive search for a red Pontiac sedan that was recorded on private and city surveillance cameras near the scene. Owners of red Pontiacs, including Letteer, were questioned by police, on Dec. 23 and Dec. 31. Letteer denied he was involved in the crash, telling police he was not in Wilkes-Barre on Dec. 21, saying he drove from a party in West Wyoming to his girlfriends house in Pittston Township. Cellphone records place Letteer in the area of North Street at the time the boy was struck

with cellphone calls being processed through cell towers on the campus of Kings College and Public Square minutes after Miller was struck, according to the criminal complaint. He has not been cooperative, said Salavantis. He did appear for questioning in the beginning there is no sign of remorse at this point. Surveillance video was sent to Forensic Video Solutions in Spokane, Wash., where it was analyzed, Salavantis said. We wanted to make sure our case is solid, she said. We brought in experts from Washington to examine (Letteers) vehicle. They pretty much tell us this is the car. That makes this case a solid case in my opinion.

down hostile missiles. The tensions playing out on the Korean peninsula are the latest in a long-running drama that dates to the 1950-53 Korean War, fed by the Norths conviction that Washington is intent on destroying the government in Pyongyang and Washingtons worry that the North could, out of desperation, reignite the war by invading the South. The mood in the North Korean capital, meanwhile, was hardly so tense. Many people were in the streets preparing for the birthday April 15 of national founder Kim Il Sung the biggest holiday of the year. Even so, this years big ower show in Kims honor features an exhibition of orchids built around mock-ups of red-tipped missiles, slogans hailing the military and reminders of perceived threats to the nation. The plain fact is that no one can be sure how far North Korea has progressed in its pursuit of becoming a full-edged nuclear power, aside perhaps from a few people close to its new leader, Kim Jong Un. More is known about North Koreas conventional military repower, and it is being heavily monitored for signs of trouble. The North has long had thousands of artillery guns positioned close enough to the border to hit Seoul with a murderous barrage on short notice. Concern about the Norths threatening rhetoric jumped a notch on Thursday with the disclosure on Capitol Hill that the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency believes with moderate condence that the North could deliver a nuclear weapon by ballistic missile. The DIA assessment did not mention the potential range of such a strike, but it led to a push by ofcials to minimize the signicance of the jarring disclosure. Secretary of State John Kerry said in Seoul on Friday its inaccurate to suggest that the North had fully tested and demonstrated its ability to deliver a nuclear weapon by ballistic missile, a message also delivered by the Pentagon.

Some early highlights while we dry

Jason Day tees off on the fourth hole during the second round of the Masters golf tournament on Friday in Augusta, Ga.

Just when the Wyoming Valley Conference nally warmed up, now it has to dry out. After a handful of games were postponed during opening week because of miserably cold weather, the second week of the league slate ended with Fridays schedule being washed out. In other words, there havent been a ton of games played to draw conclusions from. With that as a caveat, here are some early impressions from around the league.

UGUSTA, Ga. The 14-year-old from China isnt going anywhere in a hurry. And this Masters is still a long way from taking shape. Despite being the rst player at Augusta National to get hit with a one-shot penalty for slow play, teen sensation Guan Tianlang still made history Friday as the youngest player to make the cut in a PGA Tour-sanctioned event. And it came down to the last shot of a wild and windy day.

Jason Day could have sent the kid home early with a birdie from just off the front of the green on the 18th hole. But the Australian was wide left and tapped in for par, giving him a 4-under 68 and a one-shot lead over fellow Aussie Marc Leishman and the ageless Fred Couples. Twhe par meant that Guan, who had one shot added to his

score on the 17th hole for his second bad time of the round made the cut under the 10-shot rule. If I can make it, I would be really happy for it, Guan said some ve hours earlier. But if I didnt make it, its still a great week. Hes now part of a weekend at Augusta that should be as dynamic as ever. Day was at 6-under 138, and 18 players were within four shots of the lead, including Tiger Woods. Woods moved into a share of the lead with a two-putt birdie on the eighth hole, and his game

looked to be as sharp as ever perhaps too sharp. Right when it looked like he might take the outright lead, Woods hit a lob wedge that was so perfect it hit the ag on the par-5 15th and caromed backward off the green and into the water. Instead of having a short birdie putt, he had to scramble to save bogey. Woods posed over another shot on the 18th and was stunned to see it hop onto the upper shelf, leading to his second three-putt bogey of the week. He had to settle for a 71, though he was still only three shots out of the lead. My score doesnt quite indi-

cate how well I played today, Woods said. Day, a runner-up at the Masters two years ago, can be one of the most exciting players in golf when his game is on, and he was ring at ags from everywhere Friday. Even from the pine straw under the trees on the dangerous 11th, the Aussie took dead aim at the pin and set up a rare birdie to join the leaders. His only blunder was hitting into the water short of the 12th, though he still managed to escape with bogey, and then he red a 4-wood low enough to

SATURDAY, APRIL 13, 2013 PAge 3B This Date in Baseball


April 13 1914 The first Federal League game was played in Baltimore and the Terrapins defeated Buffalo, 3-2, behind Jack Quinn. A crowd estimated at 27,000 stood 15 rows deep in the outfield to witness the return of big league baseball to Baltimore. 1933 Sammy West of St. Louis went 6-for-6 in an 11-inning win over the Chicago White Sox. He had five singles and a double off Ted Lyons. 1953 For the first time in half a century, a new city was represented in the American or National leagues. The Braves moved from Boston to Milwaukee and opened in Cincinnati, where Max Surkont set down the Reds, 2-0. 1954 Henry Aaron made his major league debut in left field for the Milwaukee Braves and went 0-for-5 in a 9-8 loss to the Cincinnati Reds. Cincinnatis Jim Greengrass hit four doubles in his first major league game. 1963 Pete Rose of the Cincinnati Reds tripled off Pittsburghs Bob Friend for his first major league hit. 1972 The first player strike in baseball history ended. 1984 Pete Rose got his 4,000th hit, a double off Philadelphia pitcher Jerry Koosman. The hit came exactly 21 years after his first hit. 1987 The San Diego Padres set a major league record when the first three batters in the bottom of the first inning hit homers off San Francisco starter Roger Mason in their home opener. The Padres, trailing 2-0, got homers from Marvell Wynne, Tony Gwynn and John Kruk. 1993 Lee Smith became the all-time saves leader as the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 9-7. Smith got his 358th save, surpassing Jeff Reardon of the Cincinnati Reds. 1999 Texas catcher Ivan Rodriguez drove in nine runs in the Rangers 15-6 victory at Seattle. Rodriguez hit a three-run homer in the first, a tworun single in the second and his first career grand slam in the third as Texas took a 13-0 lead. 2004 San Franciscos Barry Bonds hit his 661st homer, passing Willie Mays to take sole possession of third place on baseballs career list. 2006 Cody Ross hit a grand slam and a threerun homer to help Los Angeles beat Pittsburgh 13-5. 2007 Carlos Lee hit three homers, including a grand slam, and drove in six runs, helping Houston to a 9-6 win at Philadelphia. 2008 Joe Crede and Paul Konerko each hit grand slams for the White Sox against the Tigers, the third time Chicago has had multiple grand slams in the same game in its history. 2009 Orlando Hudson hit for the cycle as Los Angeles beat Randy Johnson and San Francisco 11-1. 2009 Chicagos Jermaine Dye and Paul Konerko reached 300 career homers with consecutive drives in the second inning of the White Soxs 10-6 win over Detroit. They became the first teammates to hit century milestone home runs of at least 300 in the same game. 2009 Jody Gerut christened the Mets new home, Citi Field, with a leadoff homer in San Diegos 6-5 win over New York. Geruts shot off Mike Pelfrey marked the first time in history that the first batter homered in a regular-season opener at a major league ballpark. 2011 A federal jury convicted Barry Bonds of a single charge of obstruction of justice, but failed to reach a verdict on the three counts at the heart of allegations that he knowingly used steroids and human growth hormone and lied to a grand jury about it. 2012 Matt Cain threw a one-hitter, allowing only a single by Pittsburgh pitcher James McDonald in the sixth inning during a near-perfect performance as the San Francisco Giants beat the Pirates 5-0 in their home opener. 2012 Aaron Harang set a Dodgers record with nine consecutive strikeouts, one short of the major league mark, and Los Angeles beat San Diego 9-8 on four straight walks in the bottom of the ninth inning. The Padres struck out 18 times, tying the most by a Dodgers pitching staff for a nine-inning game. Still, Los Angeles blew an 8-3 lead. San Diegos Chase Headley hit a tying, two-run homer with two outs in the ninth off Kenley Jansen. Todays birthday: Lorenzo Cain 27; Hunter Pence 30; Steve Pearce 30.

CHICAGO Starlin Castros ninth-inning double off the center-field wall gave the Chicago Cubs a win over the San Francisco Giants. Chicago led 2-0 heading into the top of the ninth, but closer Kyuji Fujikawa allowed a one-out RBI single by Pablo Sandoval and hit Buster Posey with a pitch before Brandon Belts two-out double down the right-field line.

Cardinals 2, Brewers 0

Pirates 6, Reds 5

PITTSBURGH Andrew McCutchen hit a tiebreaking homer in the seventh inning and drove in three runs to lead the Pittsburgh Pirates past the Cincinnati Reds.

ST. LOUIS Rookie Shelby Miller allowed one hit in seven innings, a single by Norichika Aoki to open the game, and the St. Louis Cardinals had just enough to spoil Kyle Lohses first start as a visitor since 2007 in a victory over the Milwaukee Brewers. David Freese had an RBI single at the end of a three-hit flurry to open the second and Yadier Molina hit his second homer in the seventh for the Cardinals.

NEW YORK The Yankees turned a triple play in the eighth inning after Adam Jones dropped Vernon Wells fly ball while blowing a bubble for a game-changing, three-run error, and New York beat the Baltimore Orioles 5-2 Friday night for its fourth straight win. Baltimore started the eighth with two singles off CC Sabathia (2-1), and Manny Machado hit a sharp low liner that second baseman Robinson Cano. Cano tossed it to shortstop Jayson Nix for the forceout at second. Nick Markakis, thinking the ball was going to be caught by Cano, got trapped in a rundown between second and third base. Third baseman Kevin Youkilis tagged Markakis and then threw to first baseman Lyle Overbay when Machado ranged too far off the bag. Overbay then threw to Cano, who tagged Machado, setting off a smiling celebration by New York. The Yankees had last turned

a triple play on April 22, 2010, at Oakland. CLEVELAND Nick Swishers two-out single in the ninth inning gave the Cleveland Indians a win over the Chicago White Sox. Michael Bourn started the rally with a one-out double off Jesse Crain (0-1). Bourns blooper landed near the left field line and he beat the throw to second base.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. The Blue Jays Jose Reyes drove in a pair of runs before getting carted off in the sixth inning with a sprained left ankle, and Toronto beat the Kansas City Royals. Reyes was attempting to steal second when he started his slide late. The four-time All-Stars left ankle twisted awkwardly beneath him as he slid over the bag, and trainers from both teams ran out to help as Reyes screamed in pain on the infield dirt.

Heat roll again, get past Celtics


MIAMI LeBron James scored 20 points in 29 minutes, Rashard Lewis added 19 on a huge night for the Miami bench and the Heat tied the franchise record for home wins in a season, topping the Boston Celtics 109-101 on Friday night. Dwyane Wade, back after missing six games with bone bruises around his right kneecap, scored 11 in 34 minutes for Miami, which won its 35th home game to tie the standard set in 2004-05. The Heat erased an early 13-point deficit with a 41-point second quarter, shooting 16 for 19 in the period. Miami also made 12 3-pointers to push its season total to 686, another team record. Jeff Green scored 25 for Boston, which played without Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett. The Celtics bench was outscored 52-14. INDIANAPOLIS Deron Williams scored 33 points and the Brooklyn Nets secured home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs with a victory over the Indiana Pacers. Brook Lopez and Joe Johnson each had 24 points for the Nets (47-32), who have won four of their last five games. David West had 26 points and nine rebounds, and Paul George had 21 for the Pacers (49-30), who have lost three of four. TORONTO Amir Johnson had 24 points and nine rebounds, Rudy Gay scored 23 points and the Toronto Raptors earned their second straight win over Chicago, beating the Bulls. Kyle Lowry had 13 points, 11 assists and nine rebounds, and DeMar DeRozan scored 19 points for the Raptors, who were coming off a 101-98 win in Chicago on Tuesday night.

Sens Anderson sends Devils to 9th straight loss


The Associated Press

CLEVELAND Carmelo Anthony scored 31 points with 14 rebounds in just three quarters and the New York Knicks bounced back after having their winning streak stopped at 13 games one night earlier by beating the Cleveland Cavaliers. Anthonys streak of scoring at least 35 points ended at six games as New York coach Mike Woodson chose to rest the AllStar forward the entire fourth quarter. J.R. Smith also scored 31 13 in the fourth while Anthony watched for New York, which is trying to hold off Indiana for the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs. The Knicks have a three-game lead over the Pacers heading into their matchup Sunday at Madison Square Garden. WASHINGTON Jrue Holiday scored 22 points, and the Philadelphia 76ers found enough motivation to put the Washington Wizards pursuit of ninth place to rest for good, pulling away in the second half for a victory. Thaddeus Young added 18 points and 13 points for the 76ers, who had played a pair of stinkers since being mathematically eliminated from the playoffs but handled the Wizards, who had made catching Philadelphia a very public goal to make up for a 4-28 start. ATLANTA Jeff Teague and Josh Smith each scored 24 points and the Atlanta Hawks used a 13-0 run in the fourth quarter to take the lead after trailing by 19 early in the second half and beat the Milwaukee Bucks. Atlanta moved one-half game ahead of Chicago for fifth place in the Eastern Conference. Monta Ellis led Milwaukee with 27 points and 17 assists, and Ersan Ilyasova scored 25 points while shooting 6 for 8 on 3-pointers.

NEWARK, N.J. Craig Anderson made 33 saves in his third shutout of the season, and the Ottawa Senators sent the sliding New Jersey Devils to their ninth straight loss with a 2-0 victory Friday night. Jean-Gabriel Pageau and Milan Michalek second-period goals for the Senators, who won for the second straight night, following a five-game skid, to boost their playoff chances. Ottawa, in sixth place in the Eastern Conference, lead ninthplace Winnipeg by four points. New Jersey is 10th, eight points behind Ottawa and four behind the New York Rangers and the postseason cutoff with seven games to play. The Senators will finish a season-high, seven-game trip at Boston on Monday. They will then play five of their final six at home, where they are 13-3-3. The defending East champion Devils dropped to 0-5-4 without injured star forward Ilya Kovalchuk. The slide is one game shy of the franchise mark, set early in the 1983-84 season. Kovalchuk appears close to returning to the lineup, but it might be too late for the Devils. Their skid began when he sustained a shoulder injury on March 23 against Florida. As has been the case in recent weeks, New Jersey seemed to control the territorial play and the shot count, but it didnt help produce any goals. Despite outshooting the Senators 23-9 in the opening

40 minutes and getting an early two-man advantage for the second straight game, the Devils trailed 2-0 heading into the third period. Pageau, called up from Binghamton of the AHL on Wednesday, earned an assist that night in the win at Philadelphia and scored his first NHL goal in his second game. Erik Condra intercepted a pass around the boards by Devils defenseman Mark Fayne and tried to center it from deep in the right corner. The puck deflected off Devils center Andrei Loktionov, and went right to Colin Greening between the circles. Greening sent a backhander toward goalie Martin Brodeur, and Pageau came out from behind the net and tipped the puck over Brodeurs shoulder at 3:08. It was the Senators first legitimate shot on goal after they had three in the first period. Michalek, who had missed the previous 15 games and 25 of 27 because of injuries, scored his third goal of the season. The play started when Devils defensemen Marek Zidlicky and Henrik Tallinder collided near the Senators blue line. Michalek skated the puck down the left side on a 2-on-1 rush, made a pass to Daniel Alfredsson coming down the middle, and then took the return pass for a shot into a wide open net. The Devils had chances to get back into it. also unbeaten in league play to sit atop Division 2 and Division 3, respectively. For Hanover Area (4-0), the dominance is expected. The Hawkeyes have outscored opponents 42-3 in those four games, with only Nanticoke taking them the full seven innings. The other three contests ended early by the 10-run rule. Like Berwick, Hanover Area has most of last seasons roster back in 2013. And the Hawkeyes havent lost a regular-season WVC contest since May 2011 after going 12-0 a year ago. In the hunt for a District 2 Class 2A title this season, the Hawkeyes held their own in the preseason against bigger programs in the area, narrowly losing to 3A Berwick and drawing even with 4A Valley West. As for Dallas, the Mountaineers are 3-0 after going 2-12 last season. The bats are hot to open the campaign, highlighted by five home runs. The key to continued success, however, will be an experienced pitching staff led by senior ace Brian Stepniak, a Division I prospect who is verbally committed to Hartford. To me, youve got to start with what pitchers do you have back, and what pitchers have experience, Dallas coach Ken Kashatus said after topping Holy

Blue Jackets 4, Blues 1

COLUMBUS, Ohio Cam Atkinson had a goal and an assist, and Sergei Bobrovsky made 31 saves as the Columbus Blue Jackets snapped the St. Louis Blues season-high, six-game winning streak with a victory. Artem Anisimov, Ryan Johansen and Marian Gaborik also had goals for Columbus, which continued its climb from cellardweller to playoff contention. The Blue Jackets, 11-1-3 in their last 15 home games, were last in the NHL after a 5-12-2 start but have earned points in 18 of 22 games since (13-4-5). Kevin Shattenkirk made it 1-0 for the Blues, who went with rookie Jake Allen in goal instead of Brian Elliott, who has posted three shutouts in a row.

Stars 5, Predators 2

NASHVILLE, Tenn. Rookie Alex Chiasson scored two goals, and the Dallas Stars beat the Nashville Predators for their fourth straight win as they try to keep their improbable playoff hopes alive. Ray Whitney had a powerplay goal and an assist, and Erik Cole and Tom Wandell had a goal apiece. Vern Fiddler also had two assists for the Stars, who started the night 10th in the Western Conference three points behind eighth-place Detroit. Richard Bachman stopped 26 shots and improved to 5-3. He started in place of Kari Lehtonen, who was scratched because of a lower body injury.

Taylor Beck and Bobby Butler scored for Nashville, which has lost five straight and eight of nine. Dallas also snapped a fourgame skid against Nashville and avoided being swept this season by their future division rival. The Blue Jackets were almost in a must-win situation. They started the night tied for 10th in the Western Conference with 41 points, three behind eighthplace Detroit. The Blues were firmly entrenched in sixth with 48 points. Columbus will now embark on a six-game trip to Minnesota, Colorado, Anaheim, Los Angeles, San Jose and Dallas before closing the regular season at home on April 27 against Nashville. Bobrovsky, a Vezina Trophy candidate after a hot stretch, was solid in the first 10 minutes of each of the first two periods when he was needed the most. He improved to 11-3-5 with a 1.68 goals-against average at home this season after never playing in Nationwide Arena before being acquired from Philadelphia last summer. With the score tied at 1, the Blue Jackets scored two late goals in the second to take control. Then with under 90 seconds left in the period, James Wisniewskis slap shot from the left point hit Nick Foligno at the left doorstep. The puck bounced to Johansen, who was alone in front. He had a vacant net for his fourth goal of the year.

with a 13-1 win at Wyoming Valley West. Certainly theres no doubt were not afraid to say it the expectations are high. Theres no doubt. But I think theyre handling it very well. Berwick has opened the WVC season 3-0, showing it can win big (against Valley West) and also hold its own in tight contests, stopping a late Coughlin rally to beat the Crusaders 4-3. But the biggest confidence boost came in the preseason. The Bulldogs headed to New Jersey in March and came back with an impressive scalp, beating a well-regarded Immaculata program 7-5. Theyre a powerhouse team in New Jersey. And that was the first time on a baseball field for us, Pinterich said. And I thought to myself, Whoa. That was their 16th game. That was our first time out, and we ended up beating them. Right from there, I think the kids saw that, Hey this could be something special. We set the tone right there.

Redeemer to start the week. And fortunately for us, every pitcher on our staff from last year is back. Last year, our whole pitching staff was new, besides Stepniak. So last year was a big year for us (for development). Because usually when you come into the (varsity) program as a sophomore you already have that year maybe throwing a little JV and working their way into the rotation. They didnt have that. After Stepniak, these were our best guys. A trial by fire.

Fast starts

Dallas, Hanover take charge

While Berwick has the early lead in Division 1 of the WVC, Dallas and Hanover Area are

The sample sizes arent much most players have only around 10 at-bats in league play but heres a quick look at players to open the season hitting .500 in their first eight-plus at-bats: Sal Biasi (HAZ), Jared Dasher (MMI), Nick Deno (HAN), Joey Favata (BER), Cal Lisman (MEY), Patrick McGinty (PA), Kyle McHale (MEY), Anthony Melito (BER), Will Morales (BER), Domenic Oliveri (DAL), Christian Pack (HAN), Greg Petorak (DAL), Mike Sulcoski (DAL), Kevin Volkel (NW), Jack Windt (HAN), Ryan Zapoticky (DAL). On the mound, the following pitchers have hit double digits in strikeouts:

Kevin Evans (GAR), Josh Featherman (COU), Mickey Ferrence (HAN), Eric Gurzynski (NW), Matt Kaster (CRE), Joe Olszyk (NAN), Asa Saidman (SEM), Brian Stepniak (DAL).

told reporters that his history with Greinke has been welldocumented. That situation could have been avoided. Youd have to ask Zack about that. The Dodgers were furious Quentin hit by pitches 116 times in his big league career didnt just trot to first base. The Dodgers thought the situation, a 3-2 pitch with L.A. ahead 2-1, hardly called for a purposeful plunking. And they said Quentin crowds the plate, denying pitchers the opportunity to pitch inside without hitting him. Quentin felt otherwise. Its a mans game on the field, he said. Thoughts arent present when things like this happen. Greinke, the Dodgers $147 million man, had his left arm in a sling and a dazed look on his face as he told his side of the story. Juan Uribes pinch-home run in the eighth put the Dodgers ahead, two innings after Greinke hit Quentin on the left shoulder with a pitch. The slugger started walking toward the mound, and Greinke appeared to say something. The 6-foot-2, 240-pound Quentin then charged the 2009 AL Cy Young Award winner, who is 6-2 and 195 pounds. They dropped their shoulders and collided, and Quentin tackled the pitcher to the grass. Quentin and Greinke ended up at the bottom of a huge scrum as players from both sides ran onto the field and jumped in. Dodgers manager Don Mat-

tingly was livid. Thats just stupid is what it is, Mattingly said. He should not play a game until Greinke can pitch. If he plays before Greinke pitches, somethings wrong. He caused the whole thing. Nothing happens if he goes to first base. Greinke twice hit Quentin with pitches when they were in the American League. Ive been hit by many pitches, said Quentin, plunked more often than any other major league hitter since the start of 2008. Some have been intentional, some have not been. For the amount I have been hit and my hitting style, Im going to repeat: I have never reacted that way. Kemp found Quentin in the hallway near the players exit as they were leaving the ballpark after the game. The 6-foot-4, 214-pound Kemp briefly went nose to nose with Quentin before Richard, who is 6-5 and 245 pounds, stepped between them. Police and security moved in to break it up. Both teams said the melee could have been avoided. They play another three-game series at Dodger Stadium beginning Monday night. I never hit him on purpose, said Greinke, who still appeared shaken after the game. I never thought about hitting him on purpose. He always seems to think that Im hitting him on purpose, but thats not the case. Thats all I can really say about it. Greinke was asked if he said something to Quentin before the slugger rushed the mound. Im not really talking about this. I said what I said to you guys.

Mickelson says hes still in the hunt despite a 76


By DANIEL SHIRLEY The Macon Telegraph (MCT)

AUGUSTA, Ga. Phil Mickelson likes to believe hes always in the hunt at Augusta National Golf Club. He will get the chance to prove just that Saturday at the Masters. Mickelson struggled to a 4-over-par 76 in Fridays second round, and he is at 3 over, nine shots behind leader Jason Day. I think so, Mickelson said when asked if he can shoot a low score Saturday and make a move. Youre never out of this tournament. You just never know whats going to happen. Ive got a little bit of work to do; it doesnt feel far off. My putter is very close. Ive hit a lot of good putts that have not gone in that have come very close the first two days. If I can get a couple to fall and hit a few more good shots, I think that I have something in the mid-60s, which I will need (Saturday) to get back in it.

Mickelson had three birdies in the second round, but he had five bogeys and a double-bogey on the par-3 12th that hurt his chances.

Round reversal

you cant really control. But even though with everything that happened (Friday), we still are in a decent position to hopefully do something on the weekend.

Sergio Garcia was feeling good about his game Thursday and with good reason. He had six birdies and no bogeys in the first round and arrived at Augusta National for the second round tied for the lead. Things were much different Friday as he had four bogeys and no birdies for a 76 to sit at 2 under, four shots out of the lead. Obviously it was much more difficult (Friday), very gusty winds, he said. It was not only the strength, because if its consistent, you kind of figure it out, but unfortunately (on Friday) it was very, very gusty. There were some shots that you would hit well, and it would make you look a little bit silly. You know, those are things

Stumbling down the stretch

Matt Kuchar birdied the second hole to get to 5 under and was right in the chase, but after that, the day was a real struggle for the former Georgia Tech standout. He had just one more birdie, and his round was derailed by five bogeys. Kuchar is at 1 under after rounds of 68-75, and he is five shots back. You can only do what you can with the score, Kuchar said about having an aggressive approach Saturday. Theres no sense in being silly; just play the shot that gives you the best chance to make a reasonable score out here. I think your game plan doesnt change; its just a matter of making putts or not.

Bubba sticks around Defending champion Bubba Watson said he didnt want to just hang around this weekend to hand out a green jacket Sunday. He wanted to make sure he was playing, as well. He is just barely. Watson made the cut on

the cut line of 4 over. He had rounds of 75-73. After recording just one birdie in the first round, Watson had seven in the second round. But he also had six bogeys and a double-bogey (he had only four pars).

Slow play costs Guan


The Masters follows the Rules of Golf, written by the U.S. Golf Association and the Royal & Ancient. Rule 6-7 requires golfers to keep up with any pace of play guidelines that the committee may establish. For a threesome at Augusta National, those guidelines set a target of 4 hours, 38 minutes to play 18 holes. Once a group is warned it is out of position too far behind the group just ahead each player is timed and allotted 40 seconds to play the shot. Guan and his playing partners, Ben Crenshaw and Matteo Manassero, never held up the group behind them. But Fred Ridley, the competition committee chairman at Augusta National, said they were first warned for being out of position at No. 10. The eighth grader went on the clock two holes later, and received his first warning at the 13th. In keeping with the applicable rules he again exceeded the 40-second time limit by a considerable margin, Ridley said in a statement. Guan said he understood the warning, and tried to pick up his pace. A little bit, he said. But I think my routine is good. The only problem is I have to make the decision. Guan had a long delay on the par-3 16th. After a gust of wind dunked Manasseros tee shot in the water, he spent more than five minutes debating clubs with Tam. When the caddie pulls the club for him, I think hes ready. But he just sometimes most of the times he takes a little too long. He just asks questions that I think he knows, just to be sure, just to be clear in his mind, Manassero said. If I would have took more time on 16, I probably would have saved two shots, as well,

Guan at a glance
AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) A glance at Guan Tianlang, who is battling to make the cut in Fridays second round of the Masters at the 7,435-yard, par-72 Augusta National Golf Club: WHO IS HE The 14-year-old from Guangzhou, Guangdong, China, is the youngest competitor to ever play the Masters. HOW HE GOT HERE Guan qualified for the Masters by winning the fourth annual Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship in November as the youngest player in the field. EXPECTATIONS It would be quite an accomplishment if he could make the cut at golfs first major of the year. He shot a 73 on Thursday, so hes got a chance. EXPERIENCE Guan started playing golf when he was 4, going to the course with his parents. Now he is competing with Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson and some of the games greatest. SIZING HIM UP He is 5-foot-9, 135 pounds. HIS GAME Guan has a remarkable short game, which he mastered without a coach. He also has great hands. He goes to California for about three months during the year, staying with relatives in Los Angeles and San Diego to train. NOTEWORTHY Matteo Mannassero, one of Guans playing partners for the first two rounds, had been the youngest player to participate in the Masters at 16 and became the youngest to ever make the cut that same year; Tiger Woods is the youngest player to win at Augusta National, he was 21. QUOTEWORTHY I think probably not this year, but I think I can win it in the future. Guan said of the Masters.

AUGUSTA, Ga. A glance at Fridays second round of the Masters at the 7,435-yard, par-72 Augusta National Golf Club. Leading: Jason Day, who shot a 4-under 68 to stand at 138 after two rounds. Pursuing: Former champion Fred Couples was a stroke back along with first-round leader Marc Leishman. Three others were another two shots back. Wheres Tiger?: Tied for seventh, three strokes back. After climbing to the top of the leaderboard, he took a tumble when his ball hit the flagstick and went in the water on 15, the first of two bogeys in his last four holes. Shot of the day: Tiger Woods approach on the 530-yard, par-5 15th. His 60-degree wedge shot from 87 yards hit the flag and ricocheted into the water. Key stat: Woods made only one birdie on the back nine in the first two rounds.

At a glance

AUGUSTA, Ga. Guan Tianlang, the 14-year-old Chinese golfer who added some buzz to this years Masters, was hit with a one-stroke penalty for slow play during Fridays second round, hurting his chances of making the cut. The youngest player ever at Augusta National was assessed the penalty after his second shot at the 17th hole, turning what would have been a par into a bogey. He finished at 3-over 75 for the round, giving him a 4-over 148 total. The penalty was believed to be the first for slow play at the Masters. I respect the decision they make, said Guan, who spent almost 90 minutes after his round talking with rules and tournament officials. They should do it because its fair to everybody. Conditions at Augusta National are notoriously tricky in perfect weather, and the swirling, gusty winds blowing Friday only made them more difficult. Though Guan had played about a dozen practice rounds before the tournament, it often takes golfers years to figure out the best way to play Augusta National and Guan repeatedly sought the advice of his caddie, Brian Tam, who is a regular caddie at the course. The teenager tossed blades of grass into the air before many of his shots to test the wind and was often indecisive about his clubs, pulling one, taking a few practice swings and then asking for another one. I just changed my routine before the Masters and the routine is good, but I think today is pretty hard, said Guan, the youngest golfer to play any major in 148 years. You need to make the decision, but the wind switched a lot. But thats for everybody.

Manassero added. John Paramor, the chief referee for the European Tour, said he warned Guan as the group walked to the 17th tee that he needed to speed it up. But Guan had another long delay before his second shot on the hole, and Paramor pulled him aside as the teenager approached the green. Paramor informed Guan he was being assessed a one-stroke penalty, and they had an animated discussion for almost five minutes. You give him the news, the best you can, Paramor said. Guans father, Han Wen, was following his son, and a friend approached Paramor for the explanation. It was then relayed to Han Wen, who refused to question it. But the penalty rattled Guan, who missed an easy birdie putt on 17. He pulled himself together on 18, nearly holing out from a greenside bunker. His father yelled, Yes! when the ball hit the back of the cup and bounced a few inches past the hole, leaving an easy par putt. No problem, Han Wen said. No problem. He waited for his son behind the 18th green, and repeatedly patted Guans shoulder as they walked together to the scoring building. I was a little bit (emotional) on the 17th green and I didnt make that par putt, Guan said. Masters officials met Guan and his playing partners outside the building and had a brief discussion with them before the players entered the building. Crenshaw and Manassero eventually emerged, but it would be more than an hour before Guan came outside, flanked by his parents. He was composed as he spoke with the media, and said he didnt try to talk officials into rescinding the penalty.

stay below the trees and avoid the wind on the 13th, setting up a two-putt birdie. He was cognizant of the guys behind him Woods included though just as much pressure comes from trying to be the first Australian in a green jacket. The moment I start worrying about other players is the moment I start losing focus on what I need to do, and when I do that, Ill start making bogeys, Day said. Its obviously great to have the lead. Im very exciting for the challenge over the next two days. It really is exciting to have the opportunity to win the Masters. Im very, very happy where I am right now. The 53-year-old Couples, who shared the 36-hole lead last year at the Masters, birdied the 18th hole for a 71 and will play in the final group. I did tee off Thursday with the idea of playing well, and now its Friday afternoon late. Im surprised, but Im not going to freak out over it, Couples said. Former Masters champion Angel Cabrera birdied five of his last six holes for a 69 and was in the group two shots behind, along with former U.S. Open champion Jim Furyk (71) and Brandt Snedeker (70). Woods was at 3-under 141 with six others, including Adam Scott (72), Lee Westwood (71) and Justin Rose (71). And still in the mix was Rory McIlroy, who turned his fortunes around with a 5-wood from about 275 yards that set up a short eagle putt. He added three more birdies on the back nine and had a 70, leaving him only four shots out of the lead going into the weekend. Anything under par today was going to be a good score, McIlroy said. The hole locations were severe in spots, with one pin tucked on top of a mound toward the front of the fifth green. The par 5s played into an opposite wind on the back nine, and they were not easy to reach. Furyk got home in two on the 15th hole Thursday with a hybrid. He used that same club to lay up on Friday. Such tough conditions made the performance of Guan that much more impressive. He had a respectable 75, which included the one-shot penalty. And for the longest time, it looked as though it might be costly. Guan, playing with Matteo Manassero and Ben Crenshaw, was informed his group was out of position as it left the 10th green. They were on the clock on the 12th hole, meaning players would be timed to make sure they hit their shots within the 40-second limit. The teen got his first bad time with his second shot on the 13th hole, and it was clear he was in trouble after his shot into the 17th when John Paramor, chief referee in Europe, walked out to speak to him. You give him the news, the best you can, Paramor said. Fred Ridley, the head of competition at the Masters, did not say how long Guan took to hit his second shot on the 17th,

I did tee off Thursday with the idea of playing well, and now its Friday afternoon late. Im surprised, but Im not going to freak out over it.

Fred Couples

only that it was a considerable margin over his time. Guan still managed to make par on the 17th, and if he was shaken by the news so late in the round, it didnt show. He made one last par and was at 4-over 148. His game is well beyond his years, and so was his attitude over the first slow-play penalty in a major since Gregory Bourdy in the 2010 PGA Championship. I respect the decision they make, said Guan, who spent nearly 90 minutes talking with officials after the round. They should do it because its fair to everybody. The penalty looked ominous because Dustin Johnson was running off birdies every way imaginable, the only player to reach 7-under par in nasty conditions. His round imploded, however, when he played the final five holes in 6-over par. That included a double bogey on the 15th when he hit his third shot into the water. He had a 76 and plunged down the leaderboard, though he was still only five shots behind. Furyk also hit into the water on the 15th with a wedge he chunked so badly that it didnt make it halfway across the pond. Scott made his third straight bogey at No. 5, but that was the last mistake he made. He answered with three birdies the rest of the way. Days 68 was the lowest score of the round, with conditions so tricky that only five players broke 70. It just feels like every shot is the biggest shot youve ever hit in your life out there, Day said. Its really, really difficult. Im just glad to be in the clubhouse right now. One player who didnt recover was Sergio Garcia, who opened with a 66. One day after six birdies and no bogeys, he had four bogeys and no birdies. One day after he saw so many shots go where he was aiming, he couldnt cope with the wind. I hit the ball better today and was I was 10 shots worse, Garcia said after a 76 that put him in the group at 2-under with McIlroy, former Masters champion Charl Schwartzel and 55-yearold Bernhard Langer. But even with everything that happened today, we still are in a decent position to hopefully do something on the weekend. That weekend will include defending champion Bubba Watson, who will play with a marker in the first group Saturday morning, and Phil Mickelson, who shot 40 on the back nine and had a 76 that left him nine shots out of the lead. And it will include an eighthgrader who is assured of winning the sterling silver cup as the low amateur. He was the only amateur to make the cut, penalty shot and all.

Buckeyes close out spring under game conditions


COLUMBUS, Ohio So wholl be this years Bam Childress? Ohio State concludes its 15 spring practices with an intrasquad scrimmage today at the Cincinnati Bengals Paul Brown Stadium, due to work being done at the Horseshoe. For the players, its a relief that the drudgery of several weeks of practice has finally come to an end. During the spring you kind of get tired of going against the same people for so long that you just finally want to take it out on somebody else, but theres nobody else to take it out on but them, defensive lineman Adolphus Washington said. For the coaches, the end of workouts means more time for evaluation. We can see how kids perform in the spotlight, secondyear coach Urban Meyer said. Therell be a lot of passes in the game, especially with the (first-team offense). Its really important to play in that enviBy RUSTY MILLER AP Sports Writer

ronment. I hope we have a great crowd and we find out who can make. The team was split into two squads by coach Meyer and his staff with quarterbacks Braxton Miller and Kenny Guiton off limits for contact. Earlier this spring, even though the Buckeyes most valuable player, Miller, was wearing a black jersey which meant he couldnt be hit, defensive lineman Noah Spence nailed him. Meyer joked that he wouldnt tolerate that today. Im going to carry a baseball bat, he said with a grin. Every year, it seems, a player rises to the surface to fuel hopes that he might be a budding star. Childress was the Mr. April of Ohio States program a decade ago, at his best in the spring game. He returned a kickoff 94 yards for a touchdown and also had two TD receptions in the 2003 game. But then in the autumn, when the games counted, he was a minor contributor.

PITTSBURGH Pittsburgh athletic director Steve Pederson vowed to do a nationwide search while looking for a coach to revive a reeling womens basketball program. It led to the coach next door. The Panthers hired Duquesne coach Suzie McConnell-Serio to lead the program into the ACC next fall. The 46-year-old McConnellSerio went 123-68 in six seasons with the Dukes and led Duquesne to five straight WNIT appearances. The Dukes went 24-8 in 2012-13, including an 11-3 mark in the Atlantic 10. I am a Pittsburgh girl through and through and told Steve I probably would have never left Duquesne for any other job than this job, McConnell-Serio said. This is our home. McConnell-Serio replaces Agnus Berenato, fired earlier this

month after the Panthers posted a second straight winless season in the Big East. The Panthers McConnellalso failed to Serio beat Duquesne in each of the last four meetings between the rivals located just two miles apart. Pederson joked he hadnt

noticed McConnell-Serios success. I told our players I would find a coach that will maximize the potential of everybody thats here and everybody that will come here, Pederson said. This is absolutely the perfect fit. McConnell-Serio starred at Penn State in the 1980s and is a two-time Olympian. She helped the U.S. to gold at the 1988 Seoul Olympics and won a bronze in Barcelona four years later. The

former point guard played three seasons in the WNBA and was named the leagues Newcomer of the Year in 1998 after averaging 8.6 points and 6.4 assists per game. She coached at a Pittsburgh high school for 13 years before winning WNBA Coach of the Year in 2004 while coaching the Minnesota Lynx. She resigned midway through the 2006 season before taking over at Duquesne in 2007.

Hall of Fame trainer will send out War academy in Kentucky derby prep race today.
The Associated Press

Bafferts horse is favorite in Arkansas

AUTO RACING

NASCAR could take closer look at race sponsorships


The Associated Press

HOTSPRINGS, Ark. Bob Baffert knows well how to train a horse to win at Oaklawn Park. The Hall of Fame trainer hopes to once again capture an important race at the park today when he sends out favorite War Academy in the $1 million Arkansas Derby. A Baffert-trained colt, Bodemeister, won the Kentucky Derby prep race last year, and the Californian guided horses to three straight wins at Oaklawns Rebel Stakes before D. Wayne Lukas Will Take Charge snapped that streak last month. War Academy, who has only had three starts this year, is one of two Baffert horses in todays race and both are among the top picks. War Academy was made a 2-1 favorite after drawing the second gate on Wednesday, and Dens Legacy is at 6-1 from the fifth gate. The favorite status for War Academy, who will be ridden by jockey Mike Smith, comes despite the limited running. The colt has run exclusively in California so far, with wins in two of his three races including his last time out at Santa Anita. War Academy certainly is getting a lot of buzz, assistant trainer Jimmy Barnes said. Hes a Giants Causeway colt, hes a good looking colt, and hes hopefully going in the right direction now. We couldnt be happier with him, but hes untested. Well find out on Saturday. The winner of the 1 1/8-mile race will earn 100 points in the race for a spot in the Kentucky Derby, while the place and show horses will earn 40 and 20, respectively. Oxbow, who was edged by Will Take Charge at last months Rebel Stakes, drew the far outside No. 10 gate and was made a 5-2 choice behind War Academy. The Lukas-trained Oxbow, owned by Calumet Farm and a son of Awesome Again and Tizamazing, broke to the lead at the turn for home at the Rebel before being edged by his stablemate Will Take Charge. Lukas said after the Rebel that he wouldnt race the two against each other again before the Kentucky Derby. Overanalyze is the third choice at 4-1 and will be ridden for the first time by jockey Rafael Bejarano. Also running in the 10-horse race are Carve (20-1), Divine Ambition (20-1), Falling Sky (101), Heavens Runway (30-1), Texas Bling (20-1) and Frac Daddy (15-1).

Texas ideal spot for Biffle


By STEPHEN HAWKINS AP Sports Writer

t O d ay S r a C e
NRA 500 Texas Motor Speedway 8 p.m. FOX

FORT WORTH, Texas Greg Biffle is looking forward to a do-over in the new Sprint Cup car. Texas Motor Speedway is an ideal spot since Biffle and the entire Roush Fenway Racing team have had so much success there. Biffle is the defending champion, too, and he cant wait for Saturday night. There is admittedly an extra emphasis and a different sense of urgency this weekend for Biffle, who struggled to a 17thplace finish last month at Las Vegas. That track is similar to Texas and the only 1 1/2-mile track NASCAR visited the first six races this season. We plain and simply screwed up at Vegas and I take most of the blame for that. We were just way off with the new car, Biffle said. This track feels good. I had really good speed here. I think we have a good chance at winning. Right place, right time. As surprising as the struggles at Las Vegas were for Biffle was his solid, ninth-place finish last week at Martinsville, the halfmile track that is the shortest on the circuit. I just never thought that

would happen to us, but that is just the way it works, Biffle said. The 25th Cup race at the Texas speedway, which opened in 1997 and started hosting two races a year in 2005, will be the first night race this season and for the new Gen-6 cars. While Biffle won at Texas last April, Jimmie Johnson held on off Brad Keselowski in a 1-2 white-knuckle finish last November. Johnson and Keselowski slammed together near the start-finish line after a late restart, but managed to maintain control in a wild few closing laps when they stayed in close proximity. Yeah, it was awesome. I enjoyed it in the car. Thought I was going to get turned around in (turns) one and two one of the restarts we had, but we didnt, Johnson said Friday, recalling that race. We raced right to that ragged edge and pulled it off. Of course I had a good perspective of it after the race when I watched the video and I smiled. That is just good 100

hard racing. The fall victory kept Johnson ahead in points with two races to go, but Keselowski went on to win the championship. After winning last week at Martinsville and leading a career-high 346 laps, Johnson has the series points lead. Right behind him is Keselowski, who has five finishes in the top six this season. He was asked if the Texas race last fall was a defining moment. Yes and no. I would say it would be a defining moment if we had won the race. I think it was a defining moment for me knowing that we could run competitively at tracks others didnt feel like we could I felt like we could, Keselowski said. Coming back here, while we might not have gotten the win we wanted last fall, I feel like we can get it done this spring.

FORT WORTH, Texas NASCAR might take a closer look at how it approves sponsors after the National Rifle Association became the title sponsor of this weekends Sprint Cup race at Texas during a national debate over gun rights. NASCAR spokesman David Higdon said NASCAR has no official position on gun rights. Our fans, racing teams and industry partners come from all walks of life and thus have varying points of views and opinions, Higdon said Friday. As a sport, we are in the business of bringing people together for entertainment, not political debate. Sponsorships are agreements directly between track and sponsor, but NASCAR reserves the right to approve or scuttle them. The NRAs sponsorship of the event at Texas Motor Speedway fit within existing parameters that NASCAR affords tracks in securing partnerships, Higdon said. However,

this situation has made it clear that we need to take a closer look at our approval process moving forward, as current circumstances need to be factored in when making decisions. Sprint Cup points leader and five-time champion Jimmie Johnson said it is clearly a sensitive subject. He said drivers are in Texas to do their job and put on a great race. The title sponsorship of an event is well outside of the drivers focus or anything we have to do with, Johnson said. I do recognize that it is a very touchy topic right now. The NRA 500 tonight comes as the U.S. Senate weighs legislation intended to reduce gun violence in the wake of the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., last December. Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., recently called on the Fox network to not broadcast the race and questioned the Victory Lane tradition at Texas, where the winner gets a cowboy hat and can fire six-shooters loaded

Massa fastest in F1 Chinese GP practice


The Associated Press

SHANGHAI Felipe Massa had the fastest time in practice for the Chinese Grand Prix on Friday, significantly ahead of Ferrari teammate Fernando Alonso once again. Massa earned praise from his Formula One team for an incredible performance in 1 minute, 35.340 seconds around the Shanghai International Circuit in the afternoon session. He was 0.15 seconds ahead of Lotus Kimi Raikkonen, with Alonso third. Massas strong showing surprised his team, with engineer Rob Smedley telling him over his pit-to-car radio that the pace is not good, its incred-

ible. Massa had been in a prolonged slump since a life-threatening accident at the 2009 Hungarian GP. When it appeared his Ferrari career was coming to an end, the Brazilian rediscovered his confidence in the latter part of the 2012 season and carried that into the new campaign. He has qualified ahead of Ferrari No. 1 Alonso in four straight races. If he does it again today, he will be the first teammate to out-qualify the Spaniard five straight times. Today, I immediately had a good feeling in the car, Massa said.

IN BRIEF Judge rules for J.C. Penney


J.C. Penney can sell some goods designed by Martha Stewart that were destined for shelves this spring for now, a New York State Supreme Court judge ruled Friday. Rival department store chain Macys Inc. had sought to bar J.C. Penney Co. from selling some items designed by Martha Stewart under the name JCP Everyday. Macys has an exclusive deal with Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia to sell some categories of items under the Martha Stewart name. The ruling lets Penney sell the items, which are labeled JCP Everyday and dont carry the Stewart name, until the lawsuit is fully decided. Macys said in a statement that it plans to appeal the ruling.

Retail sales slip in March

Sales at U.S. retailers fell in March from February, indicating that higher taxes and weak hiring likely made some consumers more cautious about spending. Retail sales declined a seasonally adjusted 0.4 percent last month, the Commerce Department said Friday. That followed a 1 percent gain in February and a 0.1 percent decline in January. Both February and January gures were revised lower. Consumers cut back across a wide range of categories last month. Sales at auto dealers dropped 0.6 percent. Gas station sales dropped 2.2 percent, partly reecting lower prices. The retail gures arent adjusted for price changes. The retail sales report is the governments rst look at consumer spending, which drives about 70 percent of economic activity.

FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg, foreground, said that four compounding pharmacies initially refused to admit the agencys inspectors, requiring them, in two cases, to return with search warrants and U.S. Marshals.

FDA nds issues at pharmacies


The Associated Press

Housing recovery uneven

Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke says housing remains depressed in many low-income neighborhoods even though the overall home market is making gains. Bernanke is urging a broad approach to the problem that seeks to improve education and jobs for lower-income Americans, in addition to housing. The Fed chairman says any solutions will have to be tailored to whether a low-income neighborhood is urban, suburban or rural. He spoke Friday at an annual Fed community affairs conference. Bernanke didnt address the Feds interest-rate policies. GAS PRICES

WASHINGTON The Food and Drug Administration says it has uncovered potential safety problems at 30 specialty pharmacies that were inspected in the wake of a recent outbreak of meningitis caused by contaminated drugs. The agency said its inspectors targeted 31 compounding pharmacies that produce sterile drugs, which must be prepared under highly sanitary conditions. The FDA said Thursday it issued inspection reports to all but one of the pharmacies citing unsanitary conditions and quality control problems, including: rust and mold in supposedly sterile rooms, inadequate ventilation and employees wearing non-sterile lab coats. The agency generally issues such reports before taking formal action

against companies. Inspectors visited pharmacies in 18 states, including Florida, Arizona, Colorado, Tennessee and New Jersey. The wave of inspections comes in response to a deadly fungal meningitis outbreak linked to contaminated steroids from the New England Compounding Center, a Massachusetts pharmacy. The companys injections, mainly used to treat back pain, have been linked to 53 deaths and 733 illnesses since last summer. Compounding pharmacies are supposed to mix customized prescriptions based on individual doctors instructions. However, some pharmacies like the New England Compounding Center have grown into larger businesses, supplying bulk quantities of injectable drugs to hospitals across the country.

The FDA has stepped up its oversight of the pharmacies since the outbreak was identied in September, but agency ofcials say they have been slowed by the complex overlap of various state and federal laws that govern the industry. Pharmacies are licensed and overseen by state pharmacy boards, though the FDA sometimes intervenes when major safety issues arise. In a blog post to the FDAs website Thursday, FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg noted that four pharmacies initially refused to admit the agencys inspectors. In two cases the agency had to return with search warrants and U.S. marshals to complete the inspections. These challenges and others highlight the need for clearer authorities for FDA to efciently protect public health, Hamburg stated.

NEW YORK JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo, bank industry bellwethers, reported record earnings Friday, but those numbers masked troubling declines in revenue. Revenue fell slightly at both banks, and the earnings gains came largely from slashing expenses and related measures. JPMorgan socked way less to cover potential lawsuits and released some of the money set aside for bad loans. Wells cut back on ofce space and branches. The results show that in an era of sluggish loan demand and increased government regulations, banks must stay lean if they want to boost earnings. For both banks, analysts homed in on a slowdown in the mortgage business. For the past several quarters, the banks have enjoyed a boom in mortgage renancings as homeowners lined up to take advantage of low interest rates. That pace now appears to be stalling, if not slowing. At JPMorgan, mortgage applications fell about 8 percent over the quarter to $60.5 million. They were also down about 8 percent at Wells to $140 million. Compared with a year earlier, applications at JPMorgan were up only 1 percent. For Wells, however, applications were down 25 percent. Standards for getting a mortgage are still tight. Some homeowners might not qualify for a renancing, because of changes to their personal nances, and others might not be able to afford one.

U.S. businesses keep stockpiles low, suggesting possible slowdown


WASHINGTON U.S. companies restocked their shelves at a much slower pace in February than January, a sign they expected consumer and business spending to weaken. Business stockpiles increased only 0.1 percent in February, the Commerce Department said Friday. Thats the smallest gain since June and down from a 0.9 percent increase in January, which was revised slightly lower. Total business sales rose at a healthy 1.2 percent pace in February, mostly because retail sales grew. But a separate report Friday showed retail sales fell 0.4 percent in March. Restocking helps drive economic growth. When companies order more goods, factory output increases. Economists had expected a bigger gain in stockpiles in February, so the lackluster increase could lead some to pare back their economic growth forecasts for the January-March quarter. Prior to the February report, many had been predicting growth accelerated in the rst quarter to an annual rate of roughly 3 percent. Even slightly slower growth would be better than the expansion rate of just 0.4 percent rate in the October-December quarter. Growth was held back in the fourth quarter by weaker restocking and steep cuts in defense spending. Economists expect consumer spending rose from January through March, helped by strong gains in February. But the weaker retail spending in March signals growth might slow in the April-June quarter. Job growth is also a ques-

tion. Businesses stepped up hiring over the winter, adding an average of 220,000 jobs from November through February. But employers added only 88,000 net jobs in March, which likely weighed on spending last month, too. Fridays report covers a broader range of companies than the wholesale report. It measures stockpiles held by manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers

SANDRA SNYDER

Smart shoppers will gladly come bearing coupons


In my next life, I want to be CeO. Of the J.C. Penney Co. Ron Johnson moment of silence for the ousted chief exec, please had his chance, and I cant help feeling sorry for the guy, especially now that he knows his replacement is his run-out-on-a-rail predecessor. that has to hurt. too many questions are no doubt coming out of HQ in Plano, texas, now. Among them, Im guessing: If the highly credentialed mr. Johnson was able to reinvent Apple retail, well, why not JCPenney (the brand and the store, minus those pesky periods)? Dare I say it? Without you stringing me up for sexism? Ill be brazen Because Ron Johnson is a man. And therefore probably has a lot to learn about shopping. For starters, he probably does not own two dozen purses. And who on earth would? Well, defend me here, women, because this isnt our fault. We keep buying more bags because one after another ultimately fails to meet the hauling needs foisted upon us. Wallets and checkbooks are givens, but we also must nd room for cosmetics and toiletries and far too many extras. think kiddie snack cups or even spousal equivalents. (I still have a friend with Cheez-Its in her purse right now to keep a cranky husband at bay in case theyre out and busy and sudden hunger turns productivity into misery on a dime.) And dont even get me started on coupons and the in-vessel vessels needed to contain them all. If youre a man and have maybe just a BOGO or two for a steakhouse on your person right now, please pity the more heavily burdened women all around you. the coffee youre drinking and the pot it issued from? your favorite towel? the doormat on which you wiped your feet? We probably got at least one of those 20 percent off at Bed, Bath & Beyond, simply because well devote so much precious bag space to those obnoxiously outsized cardboard coupons you just dont enter the store without. And why? Because thats how the world works. Savvy shoppers dont pay full price, even if they are smart enough to realize the mark-ups to begin with. Still, as for mr. Johnson, you have to admire the gumption of a boss whose rst big gamble was a coupon-free JCP society. Sure, many price tags were brought back to earth when the coupons died. But just as many were not, and, on top of that, he took the fun out of the game. Who thrills to a shopping hunt that doesnt include at least one rock-star purchase made with a 30 percent coupon on an item already marked down 50? thats why Kohls is so much fun. Score the 30 on your peel-back and use it on clearance items, and its hard not to puff up a bit. (I enjoy an umbrella drink under my $15 9-foot market umbrella all the more for this very reason.) And as for Bed, Bath & Beyond: How quickly it learned its lesson when it suddenly decided its coupons would expire. the horror and the backlash. Listen up, new-old J.C. Penney CeO, blessed with a second chance. Reinvention is cool, as cool as that younger demographic that led you up this garden path in the rst place. But forsake not your old friends. Lucky for you were a forgiving lot, cheering for you to make it. I, for one, need you alive and well when I nally buy the white plantation shutters Ive coveted for so long now. Ill pay the best price around (or so Im told) and have a coupon, too. Give me no guff, and youll have me for life.

These children from the Kids Cafe program of the Commission on Economic Opportunity in Wilkes-Barre pose proudly among the corn, tomatoes and other vegetables they grew in the community garden along Wilkes-Barre Boulevard one recent summer. Children in the program help plant and tend to their garden plots and then harvest their produce for snacks.

hen children from the Kids Cafe program plant and grow vegetables each summer, theyre not just learning about where food comes from. theyre also learning about science and nutrition. And they get to eat great-tasting snacks, said mary Parrs, a registered dietitian with the Commission on economic Opportunity in Wilkes-Barre, which runs the program. Parrs said the children enjoy planting, weeding and harvesting their produce at the city community garden along Wilkes-Barre Boulevard, but they also are learning valuable lessons from their gardening work, something some experts say makes for a ne family activity. they not only learn about food but the process for growing it and the nutrients and conditions for growing it, the soil and sun, pollination and sun, Parrs said. theyre also learning about science. the students also enjoy story time when at the garden, hearing tales about growing food,

the farmers market or the importance of nutrition and health. We weed; we harvest it; we do plant some; we do a story time down there, Parrs said. We bring the food back here and make a snack out of whats been harvested. Among those treats are green-bean fries, cooked zucchini and yellow squash baked and breaded with cheese, salsa or pita pizza. the children in the Kids Cafe program usually use about six to eight plots to grow corn, tomatoes, lettuce, zucchini, yellow squash, basil,

cilantro, eggplant, radishes, green and jalapeno peppers and beets. About 100 pupils from kindergarten through sixth grade at Heights and Dodson elementary schools in Wilkes-Barre who are in the program, geared toward disadvantaged children, are divided into three groups to go down to the garden three days per week during the summer. Sharon telesky, master gardener with the Penn State Cooperative extensions Luzerne County ofce, said gardening helps children understand where their food comes from. But it does so much more. Its also a good way for parents to get their children outside and teach them its OK to get their hands dirty, even if their garden is a small patch, a sunny spot on the deck or just a container. the important thing is it has parents and children equally involved, telesky said. the extension promotes family gardening through several community gardens, including in Wilkes-Barre, that focus on childrens activities, telesky said.

Design your life around your plants


By MELISSA RAYWORTH Associated Press

Warm weather and the rst buds of spring have been slow to arrive in much of the country. But even if your garden has yet to grow, you can add beauty, fragrance and a sense of springtime to your home by decorating with lush plants and potted trees. Decorating with plants kind of fell out of vogue for a time, says California-based interior designer molly Luetkemeyer. It was such a 70s thing, or I think people associated it with the 70s, but its become popular again in recent years. today, designer spaces pretty much always include some element of life, says interior designer Brian Patrick Flynn, founder of decordemon.com. While that can be any-

thing from coral to tortoise shells, pressed leaves or even a tiny bowl with a goldsh, the most common way to add life is with potted plants and trees. Weve asked Flynn, Luetkemeyer and Betsy Burnham of Burnham Design in Los Angeles for advice on choosing the right plants, potting them perfectly and keeping them blooming with minimal effort. Where to start? talking to someone at a nursery is a really good idea, Burnham says, because employees at garden stores and plant nurseries are usually glad to answer questions about choosing and caring for plants. you can choose plants based on the spot

the spring, says Luetkemeyer, who recommends daffodils, narcissus and hyacinth. She also loves gardenia plants for their heady fragrance and shiny leaves. But they do require a bit of effort. Any plant thats a woody plant, with a wood thats exposed, is going to be a little bit trickier, she says. Consider researching gardenias online to learn how much water and how much light your plant will need. And with all potted plants, Luetkemeyer suggests placing a dish underneath the pot to catch and maintain the water, then placing a coaster underneath the dish to protect the furniture or oor. Potted trees A statement tree, Burnham says, adds height to your room, and plays with the light at a window. Her clients in southern California often opt for the color and fragrance of small citrus trees in their homes or at the entrance to a patio or yard. They require light and require water, Burnham says, but they have fabulous oral blooms in addition to the color of the fruit. Flynn also suggests g trees: Fiddle-leaf g trees are, hands down, my favorite, he says. Theyre super architectural and almost kind of minimalist. Since these grow straight upwards, theyre perfect for corners or anking a replace or focal point without growing out and over it. I also use ddle-leaf g trees in unexpected places, he says, just to add a big burst of life into an otherwise utilitarian space such as a bathroom or even ofces. The key to using them successfully is ensuring they dont come into contact with direct light, and that theyre not exposed to dry heat. Countertop herbs This might be a great time to put some herbs in your kitchen, Luetkemeyer says.

Vanquish the stench of lingering cat urine


JAnICe SACHen of Chicagooffers what she says is a sure cure for that caturine smell: My older cat started urinating on the basement oor, and she would always go back to the same spot because she could smell the urine. I tried everything to mask the smell to no avail. Finally I tried peroxide, the regular drugstore kind, though there are stronger concentrations available at chemical supply houses. I sprayed a full-strength solution on the concrete area, and it neutralized the smell. You may want to take an old towel, place it over the area and saturate it. It may take one or two applications, but it works. no resurfacing or other extreme measure is needed.

If not, a two-inch screw or nail would be used to reattach it. Then youll have to nail the J-channel to the furring strip. not a job I would do myself, if it is as extensive as it sounds.

in your home where youd like to keep them (sundrenched windowsills, shady corners or in-between spaces that get a mix of sun and shade). Or you can select a plant you love and then ask for advice on where to place it. If you have pets or small children, ask whether a plant youre considering is poisonous. And if you want plants that need very little attention, dont be shy about saying so. While Im a fan of making a big statement with greenery, Flynn says, Im only interested in plants and trees that are lowmaintenance. Give me something that requires daily care and/or delicate grooming, and its most likely to go from green to brown or black in less than 72 hours. Fabulous ferns All three designers like ferns, such as the maidenhair. Theyre so delicate and soft, Luetkemeyer says. Theyre fresh, and theyre that pale green thats the beginning green of spring. Maidenhairs are fairly easy to care for: They need to be watered, she says, but if you water them, they hang around. Consider grouping several together in small pots or buying just one large fern. They can ground a space grouped together in odd numbers in pots of varied heights on the oor, Flynn says. Or you can use them to add life high up in a room with hanging basket planters. And then they also look excellent potted and placed on a pedestal, coffee table or console table. If you want something larger and bolder than the delicate maidenhair, Flynn suggests the staghorn fern. Just remember that all ferns do best in shade rather than direct sunlight. Flowering plants I love plants that ower in

Many grocery stores and nurseries sell herb plants such as mint or basil that are already blooming in small plastic pots. You can re-pot them into more attractive containers, then cluster several together on a countertop. Perfect potting What you plant something in makes just as much of a statement as the tree or plant itself, says Burnham. Take time shopping for exactly what you want. Add a little extra effort, she says, and you get a really chic little addition to your room. One simple approach is to put the plant into a fabulous low basket and cover it with reindeer moss, Burnham says. You dont see the soil, and dont see the plastic container inside. Luetkemeyer agrees that its worth taking time to choose the right pots: You can take the same plant and pot it four

different ways, and it creates four different vibes, she says. A pot is sort of like the frame on the piece of art. It sets the tone. Non-plant greenery If you dont wish to commit to even a low-maintenance plant, Flynn suggests you work in fruits in decorative ways. Oranges, clementines, apples and limes look excellent grouped in vessels, he says. The key to getting it right is to separate them, and not have different types of fruit within the same grouping. My favorite way to use fruit decoratively is by placing them in apothecary jars in different heights and sizes. Whatever kind you choose, Flynn is sure youll be happier if you add some kind of greenery to your home.

Fest, she added. We always try to have a different display every year. One display on worm composting shows how to develop better soil, once they get over the ew factor. When we actually go into gardens, we have activities with children planting seed, Telesky said. Probably the most important thing we try to teach them is that gardening requires patience. The other thing gardening teaches children, as well as adults, is gardening is a humbling experience.

Free plots are available for Wilkes-Barre residents at the community garden along Wilkes-Barre Boulevard. To reserve a plot, contact Mary Parrs of the Commission on Economic Opportunity at 826-0510, ext. 285.

WANT TO GROW?

Its not going to be perfect, not going be blemish-free, Telesky said. So they kind of learn a life lesson: not everything has to be perfect. Parrs said parents who want their children to participate in family gardening should plan rst. Ask the children what they like to eat, plan what to grow and take the little ones along to buy the plants or seeds. Then the youngsters should be

part of the planting, weeding and harvesting. Ted Kross, director of the Wilkes-Barre City Health Department, said the city community garden program was started in 2006 with a grant. The parcel for the garden, north of the South Street Bridge and next to the Kistler Clinic on Wilkes-Barre Boulevard, was donated by Geisinger Health System. A couple of other gardens were added later. City Health educator Paul H. Ginter came up with the idea for the garden. Parrs said plots are available, but nothing can be planted until after April 27, when topsoil will be delivered and spread.

A T IN BRIEF
On the shelf Sometimes, impatience is a virtue. Certain vegetables are at their tastiest when theyre very young. Those are the plants Mark Diacono and Lia Leendertz focus on in The Speedy Vegetable Garden. The book covers plants requiring a range of effort, from seeds that need only be soaked before theyre enjoyed to veggies with a fairly fast turnaround from planting

canning anymore. The company that makes Ball canning jars saw jar sales increase 31 percent in 2102, a phenomenon it attributes to uses such as home decor and crafting. So creative types might be interested in a vintageinspired jar introduced recently by the manufacturer of Ball jars, Jarden Home Brands. The Ball Heritage Collection Jar commemorates the 100th anniversary of the Perfect Mason Jar, which offered a jar, lid

and band in a single unit for a perfect t. The commemorative pint jar is made of blue glass and is embossed with a vintage Ball logo and anniversary dates. Its available from www. FreshPreservingStore.com or retailers that sell canning supplies. The suggested retail price is $9.99 for a package of six jars. Q&A Q: Can you microwave old melamine dishes? A: You should not, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration says. Melamine dishes are made from melamine resin, a hard plastic made from the chemical compounds melamine and formaldehyde. Heating the dishes to 160 degrees Fahrenheit or higher can cause an unacceptable amount of the chemical melamine to migrate into highly acidic foods, the FDA says. Nevertheless, its safe to serve hot food on melamine dishes, the administration says.

Custom decor, found online, stamps home as your own


When Renee Pedro bought a house with mid-century dcor, she decided to embrace the look. Drawing inspiration from the 1963 Philco oven in her kitchen, she began hunting for towels and table linens with a mod 60s vibe to complement the appliance. That oven was my style. My thing, said Pedro, of Philadelphia. She was disappointed by the lack of choices, and in 2009 began looking for a way to create her own textiles to decorate the kitchen. I couldnt nd something that t my aesthetic, so I decided to make it, she said. After a year of looking online, she found a company that would allow her to design her own fabric. Now she runs her own online business, Crashpaddesigns.com, selling tea towels, pillow cases and table linens in mod, bright, geometric or owered patterns that she designs herself. Many companies have begun to offer consumers the chance to create custom fabrics and wallpapers. Advances in printing have made it more affordable to create small runs and to make high-quality products faster and cheaper, said Aaron Kirsch, president of Astek Wallcovering Inc. in Van Nuys, Calif. He sells directly to consumers via his companys website, Designyourwall.com. The company also makes custom products for the fashion, hospitality and motion-picture industries. Demand for the custom products has been steadily rising, Kirsch said. Custom wall covering has gone ballistic, he said. Homeowners can create their own wall covering for about $6.50 a square foot, he said. Custom fabrics run about $18 to $30 a yard, said Rysa Pitner, founder of Fabric on Demand in Los Angeles. Custom options appeal to individuals who love to author their own stuff, she said. You can upload photos, original artwork or computer-generated designs on her companys website, Fabricondemand.com. Some manufacturers have designers who help customers develop the look they want. Doit-yourself designers can usually preview the order online or order a sample piece. It normally takes less than a month for orders to be processed. The websites also have a wide variety of premade patterns available. Nile Johnson of Nile Johnson Interior Design in Kennett Square, Pa., said custom pieces help his rm accomplish its goal of creating spaces that reect a clients personality. It really helps the interior show and breathe who they are, he said. Its not just pretty. Its not just functional. It really tells their story. Johnson has used the custom printing process to create a window shade depicting a childs favorite story book. He is currently creating wallpaper that corresponds to a clients checkered dishes. Creating rolls of wallpaper for an accent wall or producing yards of fabric to make curtains, bedding or furniture covering allows homeowners to create layers of design that contribute to the look they are after, added Los Angeles designer Kate Albrecht, who runs the website Mrkate.com. Its a layered look where they feel like each little element of a room speaks about their personality, she said. As a designer, you have this idea for a perfect fabric in your mind and sometimes you cant nd it. Sometimes that fabric needs to be created.

to harvest. Also included are sprouts, micro greens, edible owers and salad greens. Diacono and Leendertz, who are journalists as well as gardeners, include instructions for growing and harvesting the vegetables and recipes for enjoying what youve grown. The Speedy Vegetable Garden is published by Timber Press and sells for $18.95 in paperback. Whats new Canning jars arent just for

Does Carpeting Contribute To allergens In The Home


Carpeting is actually better at trapping allergens and dust in its bers than smooth-surface oors. That means that with carpeting there are fewer particles airborne and circulating regular vacuuming can remove allergens.

Teen will continue to resist conforming to the expectations of adults


Dear Abby: Im a 14-year-old girl. I dont understand why adults tell me to be an independent thinker, to embrace myself, and then put me down for not conforming. Why is it outrageous to come to your own conclusions, speculate, challenge accepted ideas or find your own faith? It would be easier to quietly nod an empty head and smile to please our parents and the adults who influence kids, so they can enjoy superficial satisfaction. Should I deny myself as an individual and be pulled along, or is it better to stay quiet and just be who everyone expects you to be? Independent Thinker in Florida

DEAR ABBY
ADVICE
Dear Independent Thinker: Independent thinkers are the people who have contributed the most to society. Our most important discoveries were conceived by individuals who chose not to accept conventional thinking. Im not sure what kind of conversation you feel the adults in your life are trying to discourage. But people who are deeply committed to their religious faith can feel offended or threatened if their beliefs are challenged. Even though you are an independent thinker, you should be respectful of the beliefs of others.

Dear Abby: Around the time of my sisters wedding, she and her fiance, Greg, tried to get me and their best man, Bruce, together. They brought him along when they would visit and encouraged us to date. Not long after the wedding we did start dating. Bruce is a great guy and I enjoy being with him. My problem is, hes my brother-in-laws nephew. (Bruces mom is Gregs half sister.) Am I dating a family member? Are we committing incest? Should we end this relationship? I dont know what is right. Weirded Out in Wisconsin Dear Weirded Out: Bruce is not a blood relative; he is related to you by marriage. That is not the same as incest. If you care about each other,

the right thing to do is continue the relationship and see where it leads. Great guys can make great husbands. Dear Abby: My husband fathered a child in high school that was placed for adoption. His mother has become very close with the adoptive family and visits often. My husband does not. However, my mother-in-law constantly asks him to go with her to visit the child. I also found out that she sends the child gifts and signs my husbands name on the cards. Abby, I feel this is hugely disrespectful not only to me, but also to my husband. He has chosen not to get involved with this child because he doesnt think its fair to the adoptive family. He also doesnt wish to

become attached. We have already told her she is overstepping her boundaries, but it continues to happen. What can we do? Frustrated in the South Dear Frustrated: Your mother-in-law may have the best of intentions, but forging your husbands name is dishonest. Sooner or later the child will find out the truth, and the result may be painful. However, there is nothing you can do to control your husbands mothers behavior, so accept it and dont take it personally.

UNIVERSAL SUDOKU

CRYPTOQUOTE

HOROSCOPE
BY HOLIDAY MATHIS
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Mercury joins the conglomerate of astral influences in your sign, lending you the gift of gab at a level usually reserved for rappers and auctioneers. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Victorian poet Robert Browning was the Taurus who said, A minutes success pays the failure of years. This peculiar math will make sense to you today. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). With your guiding planet, Mercury, on the move, youll be in the mood to collaborate even more than usual. Choose your partners carefully, though, because their ways will rub off on you! CANCER (June 22-July 22). A wave of nostalgia washes over your life. Youre still processing what happened in those long-ago yesterdays. Youre still accounting for someones passing influence on you. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). A little forethought will save you a lot of trouble later. While youre happily planning ahead, you will find a way to carry the traditions you grew up with into the future in a new form. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The change of Mercury, your guiding planet, gives you an edge of assertive energy. Youll feel like saying whats been on your mind, even if its a bit risky to do so. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Youre excellent at taking initiative. Initiative shows spirit and guts. It also indicates a high level of self-confidence, and because you trust yourself a lot, others will, too. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). When you check in with yourself, with whom exactly are you checking in? Its something to ponder, and doing so will have meditative and enlightening effects. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You cant trust theoretical knowledge right now. Get in, and get your hands dirty. Better to do a task incorrectly than not to do it at all. It is only through action that the real lessons can be learned. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Youll get information that validates a decision you made recently. Its nice to know that your intuitive sense is on target. Youll trust it even more now. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your love life is a subject of interest to others. They cant help themselves. So try not to get too annoyed as you take extra measures to ensure your own privacy. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You may put your feelers out in a professional way. Youre not ready to make a move just yet; you just want to know whats out there. Bonus: Secret explorations can be thrilling. TODAYS BIRTHDAY (April 13). You design your life in a way that gives you freedom, choice and fun. It takes some doing. Youll plan, change the plan, refine the changes and never give up trying to make it better. May brings destiny in a phone call. Extra spending money in June is a payoff for your hard work. Family additions happen in August. Your lucky numbers are: 7, 23, 41, 19 and 44.
