Payment lapse highlights bid process problems


Buyer of 28 delinquent county properties hasnt paid up.

Cashing-out on buying-in?

ZIMMERMAN VERDICT

A Lackawanna County company bid on 28 taxdelinquent Luzerne County properties last year but still hasnt paid for them raising questions about the private bid process used in this situation. The payment lapse has prevented the properties from getting back on the tax rolls, prompted a court action and sparked an internal review of private bid procedures. Wilkes-Barre City Taxpayers Association President Frank Sorick, who recently discovered Olyphant-based Swinka Realty Investments failure to pay after noticing the properties were still in the original owners names, said the problem must be rectied so no bidders receive special treatment. When you allow things like this to happen, it puts more burden on the rest of the county taxpayers, Sorick said. Something is radically wrong here. Before Swinka Realty entered the scene, the 28 properties had been headed for a 2012 free-and-clear auction, where anyone would have a chance to acquire them. Properties must rst be listed at an upset sale with liens and back taxes attached, and those that dont sell advance to popular free-and-clear auctions, where liens and delinquent taxes are forgiven. The law allows private bids a special earlybird pick of the inventory before free-and-clear auctions because private bidders must pay a portion of the back taxes and accept responsibility for outstanding mortgages and other liens. The delayed payment on the 28 properties is of particular concern because new owners would already be liable for 2013 property taxes See BID | A13

WILKES-BARRE In the city where some believe bingo got its rst big break, the games number could soon be up. I remember, years ago, sometimes you couldnt even get a seat, Jackie Vesek said of games at St. Nicholas Church on South Washington Street, where she has been a caller for about 30 years. We always averaged 200, 250 people, the Wilkes-Barre resident said. Now? Not so much. A sharp drop in the number of players in recent years is cause for concern for St. Nicholas as well as many Catholic churches and other non-prot organizations that have long relied on the game of chance to generate extra revenue. Once in a while, if youre at breakeven on a given night? Weve had to deal with that in the past, said Monsignor Joseph G. Rauscher, pastor of St. Nicholas. Now, revenues there are often just enough to cover the cost of cash prizes and supplies at the volunteer-run games. When it costs us money to give away prizes, when its no longer nancially feasible, thats when it cant continue, Rauscher said. Across the region, churches and non-prot groups are forced to

make similar calculations as a variety of factors contribute to the loss of patrons. Some blame the rise of casino gambling, others cite smoking bans that prevent people from pufng while they play. Still others suggest that the game simply fails to draw a younger crowd, while older players are passing away. Fewer venues offer bingo The trend has not gone unnoticed by county ofcials, who are responsible for issuing $100 yearly bingo licenses under state law. Proceeds from the licenses are retained by the county, said Laura Beers, ofce manager and tax administrator at the Luzerne County Treasurers Ofce. There are 51 organizations licensed to conduct bingo in Luzerne County, Beers said, but the number

of organizations seeking new or renewed licenses is falling fast. In 2010, Beers said, the ofce issued 57 licenses. That number dropped to 51 in 2011 and 40 in 2012. So far in 2013, just 36 were issued through July 11. I was pretty surprised to see the 2013 number, Beers said, adding that most of the licenses issued this year have been for veterans groups and clubs under the liquor code. There is certainly a decline in the number of churches applying for bingo licenses this year, Beers added. Could it be because of all the parish mergers?

SANFORD, Fla. Neighborhood watch captain George Zimmerman was cleared of all charges Saturday in the shooting of Trayvon Martin, the unarmed black teenager whose killing unleashed furious debate across the U.S. over racial proling, self-defense and equal justice. Zimmerman, 29, blinked and barely smiled when the verdict was announced. He could have been convicted of second-degree murder or manslaughter. But the jury of six women, all but one of them white, reached a verdict of not guilty after deliberating well into the night Saturday. The jurors considered nearly three weeks of often wildly conicting testimony over who was the aggressor on the rainy night the 17-year-old was shot while walking through the gated townhouse community where he was staying. Defense attorneys said the case was classic self-defense, claiming Martin knocked Zimmerman down and was slamming the older mans head against the concrete sidewalk when Zimmerman red his gun. Prosecutors called Zimmerman a liar and portrayed him was a wannabe cop vigilante who had grown frustrated by break-ins in his neighborhood committed primarily by young black men. Zimmerman assumed Martin was up to no good and took the law into his own hands, prosecutors said. State Attorney Angela Corey said after the verdict that she believed second-degree murder was the appropriate charge because Zimmermans mindset t the bill of seconddegree murder. We charged what we believed we could prove, Corey said. As the verdict drew near, police and city leaders in the Orlando suburb of Sanford and other parts of Florida said they were taking precautions against the possibility of mass protests or unrest in the event of an acquittal. There is no party in this case who wants to see any violence, Seminole County Sheriff Don Eslinger said immediately after jurors began deliberating. We have an expectation upon this announcement that our community will continue to act peacefully. See ZIMMERMAN | A14

Two selling stolen ATV arrested

Devils Elbow place to be for many


giants Despair Hill Climb fans wouldnt watch the races from any other spot.
Jon OConnell
joconnell@timesleader.com

Two Wilkes-Barre men were arrested after they tried to sell a stolen all-terrain vehicle back to its owner, according to a police report. Miguel Santiago-Rodriguez, 21, and Gregory Stevens, 20, gave chase to police when Eric Lingle, the ATVs owner told officers they were selling his vehicle, police said. Rodriguez was apprehended behind the house at 65 Carey Ave., police said, but Stevens eluded offi- Santiagocers at first. They Rodriguez found him hiding on a second-floor porch after searching the house at 57 Carey Ave., which he had ducked into during the chase, police said. Stevens kicked and elbowed officers Stevens as they cuffed him, police said. While they searched the house at 57 Carey Ave., officers said they found a Glock 9 mm handgun and a 9 mm rifle. They also found two locked gun cases that appeared to hold a Beretta Nano handgun and Ruger LCP handgun, police said. The two were arraigned Saturday morning before district Judge Martin Kane. Rodriguez was charged with receiving stolen property and resisting arrest. Stevens was charged with receiving stolen property, resisting arrest and aggravated assault of a police officer. Stevens was jailed at county prison for lack of $100,000 bail and Rodriguez for lack of $10,000 bail, according to a corrections officer at the prison.

GIaNTS DESPaIR HILL CLIMB


The Giants Despair Hill Climb First race 1906. Race length 1 mile. Total incline 600 feet Record fastest Darryl Danko, 38.360 seconds in 2007 The races continue today from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
McGrady said hes been coming to the races for 10 years and he always watches from the Elbow. McGrady said he and and his pals ride their quads on trails through Bear Creek Township to park behind the lookout point. We wait all year to do this, he said. Seemingly out of place, two M35 2 1/2-ton military-grade cargo trucks joined the smaller vehicles in the makeshift parking lot, where a dozen or so fans sipped from beer cozies and leaned against their quads like the small clearing was a biker bar. Watkins, now retired, said that when he was a kid, a tent and bleachers above Devils Elbow was where all the VIPs watched the race. Nowadays, he suggested strolling through the crowd, waiting a while for the beer to ow, then walking through again to see how the fans have grown friendlier. Baumann, who lives in New Jersey now, said that while he enjoys the climb, he likes to visit his hometown in hopes of seeing familiar faces. The race is not that important, Baumann said as he caught up with Chris Goodhand, a friend the two brothers met at last years hill climb. Under the shade of the forest, Pat Green conrmed what Watkins said Devils Elbow is the best place to watch the race. We look forward to this more than the Poconos, Green said, out there on the side of the road, where they could kick back in the cool of the shade, play their music loud and enjoy the race.

United they stand against drugs at block party

Times Leader Correspondent

WILKES-BARRE A goodsized crowd visited Public Square on Saturday for the ninth annual DrugFree Block Party sponsored by the United We Stand Divided We Fall nonprot community support organization. They were treated to great food, entertainment, motivational speakers, music and dancing, and an upbeat message of hope for the future. Event founder and president of United We Stand Darlene Magdalinski said the event was not about raising money but rather more about creating awareness within the neighborhoods of Wilkes-Barre of the challenges local youths face.

It takes a village to raise a child, Magdalinski said. We are working to nd what we need to do to get back to that for the children. Its the way to stop them from taking drugs, ghting and shooting each other, she said. Magdalinski originated the block party as a way to raise money to help local community organizations that were facing hard times because of a lack of funding. She is pleased with how popular the event has become. She thanked Mayor Tom Leighton and the city for providing the Square and other services, state Rep. Eddy Day Pashinski, and the Luzerne County District Attorneys Ofce, which paid for the event food. Several local businesses, church groups, individuals also participated by volunteering and donating, she added.

Harry Hamilton, event volunteer, said Magdalinskis organization does a great job attacking the apathy and waning empathy in local neighborhoods where children grow up exposed to crime and poverty. Organizations like this do the necessary outreach, he said. Each one reach one, each one teach one, he said. The only way to make progress on the streets is through dialogue, he said. Hamilton added many organizations providing this type of service are facing funding problems and need to coordinate their efforts. They cant do enough because of the absence of funding. They need to unite, he said. Shivaun ODonnell, who worked hard to promote the event and worked

there as well, said the number of people who attend the block party shows how the community cares about its children. We care about our kids and we want them to be OK, she said. She lauded Magdalinskis grassroots efforts over the last few years making a small community event into a large-scale party supported by county and city ofcials. The people understand the kids are good and need opportunities for their future, she said. Magdalinski stressed one of the biggest challenges locally is bridging the gaps that exist among the various ethnic groups in local communities. There is no unity without diversity and no diversity without unity, she said.

Lawmaker criticizes move to delay part of health care act


Andrew M. Seder

Marino explores civil,criminal actions vs.administration


Care Act, also known as Obamacare, that included delaying one mandate that was set to begin without rst seeking congressional approval. The week before last, the Obama administration announced a delay until 2015 a requirement that businesses with 50 or more workers provide health insurance for their employees. Some in Congress, including Marino, believe that decision was illegal as it would be up to Congress to amend a congressional-crafted bill. But there doesnt seem to be anyone outside of Congress willing to enforce these laws, he said. Marino said the job of enforcing the laws of the land should fall to the attorney general, but he accused Attorney General Eric Holder of not doing his job. If the chief law enforcer of the country will not enforce the law, and the president decides to break the law because he doesnt like it, there has to be another mechanism by which we in Congress can kick into gear, pursue this, see if there are criminal charges we can le, Marino said during an appearance on the David Madeira Show on 94.3 The Talker in Scranton. Marino, R- Ly c o m i n g To w n s h i p , said there are a few former prosecutors in Congress, like Marino himself, who should be able to discuss the law and come up with a way Congress can perform its duty as part of the checks and balances on government. He said hes looking to gather those attorneys together and have them meet with me in a brainstorming discussion to go over what I think the law allows Congress to do. He said the next step would be to approach leadership and say we need to appoint a special committee like there was in Watergate that has authority to subpoena people, that has authority to investigate; and, Im looking for a part of a statute that says we have the authority to indict. Not mincing words, Marino said this goes beyond his personal feelings about the president. Were beyond the point of showing that hes incompetent. Hes no leader. He really doesnt care about where this countrys going unless its his plan, so we have to step up, Marino said. Sarah Wolf, Marinos spokeswoman, said her boss is essentially looking to investigate, identify and prosecute people within the administration, up to an including the president if it comes to that. Marino, who spoke for close to a half hour on a range of issues, including the Supreme Court, spent most of his time talking about the president and the way Congress needs to step in and do something to limit the powers Obama has granted himself. Marino represents the states 10th Congressional District that encompasses a large swath of the Northern Tier and portions of Central Pennsylvania.

Butler Township officials aim to resolve bridge problem


Times Leader Correspondent

Tom Huntington

BUTLER TWP. The township supervisors Tuesday night decided to undertake a project to resolve a problem along Saams Road that involves a culvert and a bridge. The supervisors, on a 2-1 vote, accepted bid

of $1,200 from the engineering firm of Barry Isett & Associates to conduct surveying services on the culvert. The bridge at that location is maintained by Luzerne County, which causes a problem for Supervisor Ransom Young who voted no on Issetts bid. Young said the cost of the entire project should

be borne by Luzerne County. Supervisors Brian Kisenwether and Charles Altmiller, however, cast the affirmative votes awarding the project to Isett. Solicitor Don Karpowich said another part of the proposed project is that the county has agreed to undertake a structural study of the

bridge. The matter has its origin in a complaint registered in March by Matt Balliet, who contended his property experienced flooding because of the bridge and culvert needing to be altered. In other business: - Bob Small of the Sand Springs complained of noise emanat-

ing from social and civic events at the golf club. He contended the matter violates an agreement the township had with Sand Springs officials with regard to events being confined to their expanded, indoor facilities. Karpowich will author a letter to Sand Springs officials reminding them of the specifics

of the accord. - Al DiSalvatore was appointed to succeed Rodney Murphy on the recreation board. Murphys resignation was accepted with regret at Tuesdays meeting. - First State Trust Company was selected as a third party administrator of the police and nonuniformed pension fund.

- After a protest by leaders of the Hazleton Area Little Cougars wrestling team, the supervisors tabled action on a rent increase for the wrestling room at the senior center, pending further review. At issue, coach Tom Molinario said, is a proposed increase of $400 to $800.

NUANGOLA Council took action Tuesday to resolve what Councilman Joseph Tucker called serious issues with surface water runoff and the accompanying need to clean roadway ditches. Council voted unanimously to rent equipment from Rice Township at the rate of $100 per hour to clean and cut brush in the drainage ditches in order to alleviate runoff problems. In addition,

council President John Kochan said a meeting with the borough engineer, Rich Kresge of the Quad3 Group, will be sought in order to develop a better plan for roadway drainage. This action, Tucker said, emanates from a downpour in late June that produced 3.25 inches of rain and caused widespread problems in the borough, in particular along Rock Island Street. Tucker credited an employee of the Wexcon Co. as well as police and firefighters for aiding residents dealing with dangerous

In another matter, John Pisaneschi of Nuangola Avenue warned council about the general environment and welfare of the lake and community. Pisaneschi outlined a series of grievances dealing with the sewer system project, but he expressed more strenuous concern about the deteriorating state of the lake caused by jet skiers, pontoon boaters and other watercraft being operated at unsafe speeds. Pisaneschi also said litter is being strewn in the water and along the APPLIANCE REPAIR shoreline and traffic is speeding on Nuangola - 570.639.3001 - Avenue. He also said that if a rumored town-

house project becomes a reality, he believes the lake/community environment will be impaired further. Council took action on the following: At the initiative of Councilman Anthony DeLuca, an exemption through the balance of 2013 was granted to residents who are scheduled to have their septic tanks cleaned. This will alleviate an expense of $150 to $200 for each household, DeLuca said. It was announced that residents interested in serving on the sewer authority should submit a letter of interest to borough officials. Council is seeking a successor to Dan Pecar, whose resignation was tendered at Mondays sewer authority meeting. Pecar said he is moving out of the borough. The Quad3 Group was designated to develop a new, digitized comprehensive map of the borough at an estimated price of $2,500. On a 6-1 vote, council decided to move forward on a $4.5 million financing package with the U.S. Department of Agriculture in order to complete the sewer project. The balance on a bridge loan with Fulton Bank of Lancaster has only a balance of $270,000, Councilman Ted Vancosky reported.

IN BRIEF

Texas abortion law stirs fears of shutdowns


Associated Press

Shooting in San Francisco San Francisco police officers and FBI officials work the scene near Eighth and Brannan streets after a shooting in San Francisco on Friday. Two women were killed and a man was wounded on Friday before a suspect covered in blood was arrested at a shopping center in a crowded San Francisco neighborhood that is home to police headquarters and several tech companies, authorities said.

A bloodied gunman suspected of killing two women and seriously wounding a man inside a jewelry store at a popular San Francisco shopping center is in custody, but police have yet to release a motive. Ofcers encountered the suspect Friday outside the San Francisco Giftcenter & Jewelrymart in the trendy South of Market area. Initially, the ofcers were not sure if the man, who had blood on his clothes, was a shooting victim or a suspect, police Chief Greg Suhr said. The man, whose name was not released, then opened re at ofcers while retreating into a restaurant, Suhr said. Ofcers did not return re because the sidewalks were crowded with shoppers and residents, police said. Inside the shopping center, ofcers found two women dead and a man injured with gunshot and stab wounds at the Victoga jewelry shop. Witnesses say the women were employees and the man is the shops owner.

Suspected killer of women in custody

San FranciSco

HOUSTON Dr. Howard Novick winces as he recalls treating two and three women a week for infections and complications from botched abortions. It was the early 1970s, before the procedure was legalized, and the experience persuaded him to devote his life to this area of medicine. Now, more than 40 years later, new abortion restrictions passed by the Texas Legislature could force Novick to close the Houston abortion clinic he opened in 1980 because, he says, he does not have $1 million to $1.5 million to convert his run-of-themill medical ofce into a fully loaded surgical center with wide corridors and sophisticated air-ow systems. I have saved some womens lives. They are so grateful were here for them and non-

judgmental, Novick said. I really feel a kinship for this. The legislation, passed early Saturday after weeks of mass protests and a high-prole libuster, allows abortions only in surgical centers, requires doctors who perform them

to have admitting privileges at nearby hospitals, dictates when abortion pills are taken and bans abortions after 20 weeks unless the womans life is in imminent danger. Abortion-rights advocates argue the costs associated

with converting clinics into surgical centers are so high they will force more than 35 clinics to close, possibly leaving only a handful of facilities across the vast state. The law could also create a backlog so great in the remaining clinics that women seeking abortions will miss the 20-week deadline, said Amy Hagstrom Miller, president and CEO of Whole Womans Health, a company that runs ve clinics in Texas. Abortion opponents insist, however, that the new rules are designed to guarantee the best health care. All were asking for is better surgical care for women seeking these procedures, said Christine Melchor, executive director of the Houston Coalition for Life. Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst posted on Twitter a link to a map of facilities that would be affected and implied that any shutdowns would be an added

benet. The timeline for closures isnt immediately clear; opponents have vowed to sue to block the regulations from going into effect. Texas already has stringent abortion laws. Two years ago, the Legislature passed a rule requiring women to get a vaginal ultrasound and a full explanation from the treating physician 24 hours before an abortion. Opponents of that rule say it adds travel costs to the expense of the procedure, and in some cases means women also have to stay overnight. The new requirements may not survive a court challenge. They conict with the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that established a womans right to get an abortion until her fetus could viably survive outside the womb at about 22 to 24 weeks of pregnancy. Federal courts have already struck down parts of similar laws in other states.

Third crash victim IDd


teen was classmate of other victims
Martha Mendoza Terry Collins SAN FRANCISCO The name of a girl who died of injuries suffered in the crash-landing of an Asiana Airlines ight in San Francisco has emerged early Saturday. Chinese state media identied her as Liu Yipeng. China News says she went to school with the other two victims killed in last weeks accident, a pair of 16-yearold girls. Liu Yipengs identication comes a day after her death was announced amid the ofcial conrmation that one of the other girls who died in the disaster had been covered on the runway in ameretardant foam and hit by a re truck speeding to the crash site, a disclosure that raised the tragic possibility she could have survived the crash only to die in its chaotic aftermath. Liu Yipeng, whose name was rst reported in the U.S. by KGOTV, died Friday morning at San Francisco General Hospital where she had been in critical condition since the July 6 accident. Friends and strangers have left condolences and lit virtual candles on Chinese social media sites in her memory. Jianshang Education Bureau director Mao Zhuoxing conrmed Liu Yipengs identity to China News. Her age was not disclosed. All three girls killed were from China. No one knows yet whether the teenage victims lived through the initial impact at the San Francisco airport. But police and re ofcials conrmed Friday that Ye Meng Yuan was hit by a re truck racing to extinguish the blazing Boeing 777. The re truck did go over the victim at least one time. Now the other question is, What was the cause of death? San Francisco police spokesman Albie Esparza said. Thats what we are trying to determine right now. San Mateo County Coroner Robert Foucrault said the results of his initial inquiry into the deaths would likely be released sometime next week. He would not comment on the police investigation. Ye Meng Yuans close friend Wang Linjia was among a group of injured passengers who did not get immediate medical help. Rescuers did not spot her until 14 minutes after the crash. Wang Linjias body was found along with three ight attendants who were ung onto the tarmac. Moments after the crash, while rescuers tried to help passengers near the burning fuselage, Wang Linjia and some ight attendants lay in the rubble almost 2,000 feet away. A group of survivors called 911 and tried to help them.

Gunmen ambushed a United Nations peacekeeping team Saturday in Sudans western region of Darfur, killing seven Tanzanians and wounding another 17 people in the deadliest ever single attack on the international force in the country, U.N. ofcials said. The assault by a large group of gunmen included sustained heavy re from machine guns and possibly rocket-propelled grenades, targeting the force about 15 miles west of the town of Khor Abeche, U.N. forces spokesman Chris Cycmanick said. Reinforcements later arrived to rescue the wounded, who included two female police advisers, the force said in a statement. A statement late Saturday on behalf of U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon identied the dead as all being from Tanzania. About 40 countries have contributed military personnel or police to the peacekeeping force.

CAIRO Islamist lawmakers in Egypts disbanded upper house of parliament demanded Saturday the army reinstate ousted President Mohammed Morsi, and called on other legislatures around the world not to recognize the countrys new military-backed leadership. Morsis supporters, including his Islamist allies, remain steadfast in their rejection of the military coup that toppled the president nearly two weeks ago after millions took to the street to demand his ouster. They have staged a series of mass protests in Cairo to push their demands, and are vowing to stay in the streets until he is returned to ofce. Speaking at a mass rally staged by Morsis Muslim Brotherhood in Cairo,

the two dozen former parliamentarians, all Islamist members of the Shura Council that was dissolved by court order after the coup, accused the military of attempting to restore a corrupt and dictatorial regime. The Brotherhoods website published a statement by the former lawmakers, in which they said the Shura Councils dissolution was invalid and claimed to have held a session at the rally. Morsi was Egypts rst freely elected president, succeeding longtime autocrat Hosni Mubarak who himself was toppled in 2011. The military has brushed aside the Brotherhoods demands, while the new army-backed administration of interim President Adly Mansour has forged ahead with a swift timetable to amend the now suspended constitution, drafted under Morsi, and to hold parliamentary and presidential elections by early

next year. Local media have reported that a new Cabinet could be named next week. On Saturday, Egypts Foreign Minister Mohammed Kamel Amr submitted his resignation ahead of the expected shake-up. While the presidency has oated offers of reconciliation with the Brotherhood, authorities are simultaneously clamping down on the group. So far, ve of its top leaders have been arrested, and arrest warrants have been issued against the groups top leader and nine other Islamists. Islamist TV networks, meanwhile, have been shuttered. Prosecutors on Saturday said they are looking into new complaints against Morsi, a number of Brotherhood leaders, including the groups Supreme Guide Mohamed Badie, and a number of their supporters.

Western-backed opposition ghters and a faction of al-Qaida-linked rebels turned their guns on each other Saturday in Syrias largest city, battling for control of a key checkpoint in the latest eruption of inghting among the forces trying to topple President Bashar Assads regime, activists said. The clashes between rebels afliated with the Free Syrian Army and ghters from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant underscored the growing phenomenon of rebel-on-rebel violence that has sapped strength from the broader anti-Assad movement. It also underscores the rebels inability even more than two years into the conict to unite around a unied command, as well as the deepening rift between more secular opposition ghters and Islamic extremists in the rebel ranks.

hijacked commercial airliners and ew them into the 110-story twin towers. The

attacks led to the destruction of the towers as well as a third trade center building. If the judge should decide that the World Trade Center owners were entitled to additional money, a liability trial might occur. The defendants include American Airlines Inc., AMR Corp., United Airlines Inc., US Airways Inc., Colgan Air Inc., Boeing Co. and the Massachusetts Port Authority, among others. The airlines and other aviation-related companies were sued with the reasoning that they were negligent, allowing terrorists to board airplanes and overtake their crews before plunging the planes into the trade center complex, destroying three buildings.

HAZLETON U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta is co-sponsoring the American Fighter Aces Congressional Gold Medal Act to establish a Congressional Gold Medal to honor U.S. pilots who destroyed at least ve enemy aircraft during aerial combat. The estimated 1,500 pilots including one from Wilkes-Barre Township, one from Hazleton and two others from the region who qualied as aces nationally would be honored collectively with one medal to be displayed at the Smithsonian Institution. These brave men were vital in our efforts to preserve and promote peace and freedom, as they risked their lives with every mission they undertook, Barletta, R-Hazleton, said. The

late Maj. Gen. Joseph J. Kruzel scored six aerial victories over Europe and the South Pacic. He joined the regular Air Force after World War II and rose to the rank of major general. According to his obituary from 2002, Kruzel was born in 1918 in the Georgetown section of Wilkes-Barre Township. He graduated from the University of Scranton in 1938 and then graduated from the Air Command and Staff School, the Air War College and the National War College. He became an aviation cadet in 1940. His rst assignment was ying P-40s in the 17th Pursuit Squadron out of the Philippines after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. He was credited with destroying three Japanese ghters in the rst year of the war. He returned to the United States and became

a P-47 squadron commander in Richmond, Va., and was named executive ofcer of the 361st Fighter Group, which went to England in 1943. In Europe, he was credited with destroying three German ghters. He became ight group commander of the 361st in 1944. He also held commands of the F-100 Fighter Wing and Air Division and staff posts in operations at Pacic Air Forces Headquarters and at U.S. Air Force Headquarters in the Pentagon. He retired in 1970 as a major general. He later moved to Florida. Other Fighter Aces from the 11th Congressional District are: Thomas J. Lynch, Hazleton, scored 20 aerial victories in the South Pacific with the 35th fighter group before being shot down and killed in action on March 8, 1944, on a mission over New Guinea with Americas top Ace, Dick

Bong (40 victories). His Lockheed P-38 Lightning was hit by low-level by Japanese ground fire which led him to bail out at low altitude. This caused his parachute to fail to open properly and he was killed as he fell into the jungle. William R. Beyer, Danville, scored nine aerial victories with the 361st fighter group flying the P-51 Mustang over Europe. He also was one of Americas few Ace in a Day pilots, downing five German Fw190s in one day over Eisenbach in 1944. Charles Hauver, Bloomsburg, joined the Army Reserves after Pearl Harbor and was shipped to Europe after D-Day. He recorded five aerial victories. For some people, thinking about fighter pilots conjures up images from the movie Top Gun, Barletta said. Well, for these brave men, it was no Hollywood movie. They lived it.

Demolition in Plains opens way for new playground


B. Garret Rogan
Times Leader Correspondent

PLAINS TWP. Township Commissioner Jerry Yozwiak announced the completion of the demolition of a property on Slope Street during Thursdays regular board of commissioners meeting. The plot of land formerly held a dilapidated, abandoned house. The property, which was obtained by the municipality for only $500, will now be turned over to the Parks and Recreation Department.

It will eventually be the home of a new playground. Township resident Christina Stanton, who lives only a few blocks from the site, praised the action. I cant wait to take my six year old daughter there, she said. There are dozens of families in the area, but no parks in safe walking distance, she added. In other parks news, the township awarded a contract to install a sprinkler system at Hilldale Park Baseball Field. The $12,500 project will be han-

dled by Daily Rain Irrigation of Dallas. Although exact figures were not available at the meeting, Commissioner Ciro Cinti confirmed the township is financially compensated each year by the Wilkes-Barre Area School District for Coughlin High Schools usage of the baseball field as well its usage of the tennis courts at the Plains Township Municipal Park in Birchwood Hills. The regular meeting of the supervisors will be at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 8.

KINGSTON TWP. Resident Joanie Hine, of Holcomb Road, told the supervisors on Wednesday night about excessive water and debris coming into her area during rainstorms. Hine said she called the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation during several rainstorms, including the most recent one, because of a concern for safety on the roadway. She said the water was coming from Pioneer Avenue. My question is: What can be done? said Hine. Board Chairman Jeffrey Box

assured Hine township engineers would be assessing the situation and examining options for permanent repairs. Phil Navicki, of Bunker Hill Road, also addressed the board with concerns regarding excessive water on township roadways during recent storms, requesting installation of a catch basin or storm drain near his home. Box assured Navicki the township would assess the situation and obtain funding to do it right. In another matter, the supervisors approved an ordinance retaining Comcast Cable Co. as township nonexclusive cable provider. Township Manager Kathleen Sebastian said

the contract with Comcast offered signicant benets. In approving a motion to accept receipt of the 2012 independent audit by Bonita & Rainey Accounting, Box noted no irregularities in that audit, saying it was all clear. The board approved the request of Aqua Pennsylvania to perform a water main replacement project on Meadowcrest, Clearview, Skyline and Carverton roads, including the installation of ve new re hydrants as determined by the Trucksville re chief. The next regular meeting of the supervisors will be on Aug. 14 at 7:30 p.m.

A pilot landed his ultralight plane on the Susquehanna River south of the Cross Valley Expressway bridge early Saturday night and floated the pontoon-equipped aircraft downstream under two more bridges before taking off near the West Northampton Street portal on the River Common. The Wilkes-Barre Fire Department and emergency responders from other municipalities were dispatched in the event it was a crash landing. Shortly after passing beneath the Market Street Bridge, the pilot navigated the aircraft into the middle of the river and took off, becoming airborne around 7 p.m. Stephen Bekanich, the Luzerne County Emergency Management Agency coordinator, was among the responders. Im going to look into it and seek if theres any type of violation. I dont know if there is and well go from there, he said.

HARRISBURG A cavernous brick building on the outskirts of the city holds a failed dream, a warehouse stacked high with the remnants of a multimillion-dollar spending spree by a former Harrisburg mayor who used city money to purchase artifacts for an Old West museum that died in its infancy. City ofcials hope that after a weeklong auction that starts Monday, the collection will be gone the stuffed buffalo and mountain lion, the more than 500 rearms, the racks of period clothing, the wooden dugout canoes and the Savage Ale bar sign with a bullet hole tenuously attributed to frontierswoman Calamity Jane. This is extraordinary and totally unprecedented in the value alone, and also the scope, said Joanne Grant, a longtime auctioneer with Guernseys who helped organize and catalog the vast collection. It would have been a ne museum, thats for sure. Stephen Reed, who was in his seventh term four years ago when Democratic primary voters turned him out of ofce, pursued the museum project as part

of a plan to draw tourists with ve museums. Two were established, a small re museum and a larger facility focused on the Civil War. No one seems to know precisely how much he spent as he traveled the country to purchase the items, which also include pieces meant for another Reed dream, an AfricanAmerican museum, and a hodgepodge of other material, some of dubious historical value. Nearly all the roughly 5,000 lots will be sold from City Island, home to Harrisburgs minor league baseball team, with bidders participating online and by phone. Among the items that have attracted interest are a Colt Firearms Co. advertising board with an endorsement by the Texas Rangers and a circa-1890 coin-operated slot machine called The Owl. The collection also includes a sizable number of Spanish colonial artifacts, as well as documents linked to Presidents George Washington and John F. Kennedy and historical gures Billy the Kid and John Hancock. There are dozens of saddles, framed collections of marshal and deputy badges, countless antlers and even a hat rack fashioned out of horseshoes.

Guernseys president, Arlan Ettinger, said his team has found valuable pieces side-by-side with decorative items and obvious fakes with little or no value. On a table in the warehouse he laid out ve African tribal masks, including two cheap reproductions. The only logic we could come up with is he was trying to cover so much territory with these acquisitions that he used sort of a machine gun approach, Ettinger said. I think the jury is absolutely out as to whether he overpaid for things that are genuine treasures. The auction will be the judge of that. George Turak, a collector and former art dealer from Nottingham, Pa., said he identied some interesting items and planned to consult with friends and clients about potential bids. If you know how to look at a good buy, a good item, and can do the research, then I think it will certainly pay off for you, Turak said. Reed said he determined the artifacts authenticity by examining them, documentation that came with the purchases, the sellers reputation, expert review and other research. He said the collection would have helped the city qualify for matching state funds to construct the museums building. Generally, it is better to acquire the items to go into the museum before you build the actual museum, so that the buildings design properly encompasses the planned focus periods, Reed told The Associated Press. He said he spent about $7.4 million on about 8,000 items. Reeds decision to use city money to purchase thousands of items for an Old West museum in the Northeast has been much criticized, particularly as the city tries to dig out from a massive financial crisis, caused largely by debt tied to a trash incinerator, that has left it on the brink of bankruptcy.

Bingo
o f the week, even Sunday, said city resident Criss Chudy, who started volunteering at St. Patricks on Parrish Street now part of the consolidated St. Andrews Parish a dozen years ago. Octogenarian Leona Flannery reigns among volunteers there as a surviving member of the group that rst organizeed bingo games at the church more than 40 years ago. We had bingo before the ood, Flannery, of WilkesBarre, said, recalling the devastation wrought by Hurricane Agnes in 1972. We had to give it up during the ood, because we had people living here and cooking here. Once the crisis had passed, bingo at St. Patricks resumed and thrived. It was very, very successful, Flannery said, with weekly crowds in the 200 range. In 2007, an article by the Erie Times-News predicted that casinos and anti-smoking legislation could hurt bingo halls across the state. Flannery was among the people they interviewed, telling the western Pennsylvania paper then that the parish hadnt lost too many of its 100 weekly players. Now? I dont know. Were lucky if we get 65. Its a big drop, Flannery said Thursday night, when just 46 players were in attendance. We dont make a pile of money, believe me were a small parish, said Chudy. Most nights gross between $600 and $800, she said. But, Chudy added, every little bit helps. Bingo prots at St. Andrews have helped fund special projects such as a new furnace and air-conditioning, Flannery said. Its a similar story at St. Nicholas. The game used to generate prots between $20,000 and $45,000, in the good years, Rauscher said, helping to pay for such items as masonry repairs or restoration of the aging churchs stained-glass windows. Forty years ago, when Rauscher was serving as an assistant pastor there, crowds From page 1A played at the church 80 years ago, and has been a staple of parish fundraising ever since. Our records show 1933, Rauscher said of the churchs rst game. I dont know if it was every week then, but it had certainly become a regular weekly thing by the later part of the 30s. Bingos future cloudy Bingo at St. Nicholas is scheduled to resume in August after the bazaar hiatus, Rauscher said, but its future will depend on whether enough players keep coming. A number of our players are elderly now, and dont get around as well or are homebound. Some have passed on, he said. A number of them go to the casinos, the monsignor added with a sigh. You can go to a casino any time you want. Were once a week. Bingo players are a superstitious lot, but it remains to be seen whether the rituals and loyalty of those who remain can save the game from extinction. I like it. Its a good bingo. I like the people here, theyre all very nice, said Eleanor Banks, 77, who travels from Nanticoke to attend St. Andrews games. That, she said, and her money lasts longer at bingo than at a casino. At the back of the hall, Vesek the veteran St. Nicholas caller agreed. I have been coming here for years, too, Vesek said. This is a good bingo. I enjoy it. To me, this is relaxing. While Banks methodically daubed circles of ink onto the free space in the center of each numbered grid before the nights games got under way, daughter Judy Kotch sat amid a small forest of neon-hued ink bottles used to mark the paper bingo cards, interspersed with wild-haired troll dolls that are a popular good-luck charm with many players. Kotch said she mostly gave up bingo while raising her family, only coming back to the game in the past three or four years to join her mother at St. Andrews. I think Im one of the younger ones here, the 57-year-old joked.

AIMEE DILGER/THE TIMES LEADER

Kay Lewandoski calls out BINGO after winning in the cards gold column.

of 300 were common. When the Wilkes-Barre native was named pastor in 1989, St. Nicholas still drew 200 or more players on bingo nights. Way back in the 40s, they tell me there might be crowds of 500, Rauscher said. In the past few years, patronage has declined to about 80 players per game, Rauscher said. Each summer, bingo at St. Nicholas takes a hiatus in July to prepare for its annual bazaar. Before this years break, bingo numbers were hovering in the mid-60s, he said. While some players shell out over and above the basic $24 entry packet, anything below 65 players and the weekly games could struggle to remain protable, Rauscher said. The law allows you to pay a caller, but all of our workers are volunteers, he explained.

Our expenses are the prizes and the paper (cards). St. Nicholas used to give out $3,200 in prizes each week. When patronage dropped below 80, the church decreased the prize money to $2,800, Rauscher said. The top prize now is $500. It used to be $1,000. Secondary prots from non-bingo pull tab cards, in which players peel back cardboard strips to reveal colorful prize symbols, resembling the icons on slot machines, have helped keep St. Nicholas bingo in the black, the monsignor added. A national rst? Even as they were pondering their own games future, Flannery and others at St. Andrews expressed regret over the decline of bingo at St. Nicholas. Its the oldest one around.

My mother used to go there. I went there. My sister loved it, said Flannery. Bingos roots stretch back at least several hundred years, to similar games played in Europe. But the modern American version dates back to the late 1920s, when a country fair variant called Beano inspired one or more savvy entrepreneurs to create their own copyrighted rules and cards for sale. Historians have suggested that the game of bingo truly hit the big time during the Great Depression, after a WilkesBarre priest approached a New York toy salesman with a suggestion about how to improve his recently developed paper playing cards, which had been embraced by that unnamed parish for use in charity bingo games. Specically, the church was

nding that too few unique number combinations resulted in too many winners per card, driving down prots. The unnamed priests suggestion was taken to heart by businessman Edwin S. Lowe, who commissioned a Columbia University mathematician to generate 6,000 boards with unique number sequences. Bingo took off, with tens of thousands of weekly games played across the country by 1934. Could that Wilkes-Barre parish have been from St. Nicholas? Rauscher believes it was, and that the unnamed priest was the Rev. Joseph Luksic, an assistant pastor and chairman of the churchs entertainment committee. Despite years of research, however, he still cannot say for sure. What Rauscher does know is that the game rst was

Bid
From page 1A listed and purchased in one of last years free-and-clear auctions. Buyers start paying property taxes once a deed documenting their ownership is recorded. Northeast Revenue Service LLC, the countys tax claim operator, wont record the deeds on the 28 properties in Swinkas name until the company pays the $54,020 it bid and other related costs. In comparison, bidders at free-and-clear auctions must pay immediately after the sale, and Northeast Revenue is required to record deeds in the new owners names within 45 days. The county historically charges property owners for taxes billed after they become owners. The 2013 county/municipal property tax bills were mailed the end of January, and 2013 school tax bills are expected to be mailed the end of this month, ofcials said. Technical loophole? Northeast Revenue President John Rodgers and Swinka Realtys attorney, William Vinsko of WilkesBarre, disagree on the cause of the lagging payments. The countys policy says successful private bidders must pay within 15 days of the bureaus nal approval of the bid, and Vinsko said he believes the clock starts when the court approves a sale. Vinsko said Swinka did not receive ofcial communication from Northeast Revenue until recently on which private sales had been formally approved by the court. Theres no indication these bids are not going to be paid in full within the time requirement required, Vinsko said. He said he doesnt fault Northeast Revenue because private bids are a new concept in Luzerne County, even though theyve been commonplace in some other counties for years. Rodgers said Northeast Revenue sent an email to Vinsko in December 2012 specifying payments due on 14 of the 28 unpaid properties. The court did not conrm the private sale of the remaining 14 properties until February, and Rodgers said he sent a certied letter to Vinsko on June 5 saying Swinkas unpaid private bids would be rescinded if payment wasnt made by June 17. Vinsko said he did not receive a detailed listing of everything outstanding until a July 5 email. Northeast Revenue has led a court action asking a judge to cancel 14 of the 28 private bids so the properties can go into a free-and-clear auction, and a court hearing has been scheduled for Aug. 9. A similar court action will be led on the 14 remaining properties if Swinka doesnt pay later this month, Rodgers said. Rodgers also said he is instituting a policy requiring the 15-day payment requirement to be added to court orders when judges approve sales so there will be no uncertainty on due dates. County Manager Robert Lawton said he has asked the county solicitors ofce to piece together what happened to determine if new policies or procedures are warranted for private sales. Back taxes payment Private bidders must pay at least 50 percent of the back taxes owed in addition to accepting non-tax liens attached to properties. Here are two examples of Swinkas private bids to illustrate how the formula works: An apartment building on West Main Street in Newport Township is assessed at $289,800 and currently carries $26,282 in delinquent taxes from 2009 through 2012. When Swinka submitted its private bid at the start of January 2012, records showed $11,996 in delinquent taxes on the property $6,010 from 2009 and $5,986 from 2010. Northeast Revenue says the ofce had not yet received notication of 2011 past-due taxes at that time. The bid had to be at least $6,000, or half of the recorded debt, and Swinka bid $8,850. A single-family home in the 600 block of North Main Street, Wilkes-Barre, is assessed at $64,500 and has $7,642 in back taxes owed. Swinka bid $1,700, or around $100 more than half of the combined $3,170 owed for 2009 and 2010. It should be stressed that all back taxes, including 2011 and 2012, would be forgiven on the properties if they had been listed in 2012 free-andclear sales, where properties go to the highest bidder after tax claim processing expenses are covered. Rodgers said the prior administration agreed on setting minimum private bids at half the taxes owed, though he has requested permission to increase bids to the full amount of taxes owed. Vinsko said that change may discourage any private bidding because it would be no different than a rst-stage tax sale, when properties carry the baggage of liens and all back taxes. Investment properties Swinka already purchased 14 properties through private bid sales this year to date, according to deeds recorded from July 2012 to the present. A total $25,350 in bids was paid on these properties, which have a combined assessment of $851,200, analysis shows. Swinkas limited liability corporation is registered at a Dickson City residential address in state corporation bureau records, and that property is owned by Marjer Inc. State corporation records show Marjer Inc. is registered in Greentown, Pike County, with Mark Gawron as the president. Other online proles for Swinka list Kimberly Poplawski, a Lackawanna County Realtor, as the companys principal. Swinka has been purchasing tax-delinquent properties for about eight or nine years in Lackawanna County but wasnt able to get Luzerne County to act on private bids until Northeast Revenue took over the countys tax claim ofce several years ago, Vinsko said. The company typically repairs the private-bid properties to sell or rent them, Vinsko said. Every one is xed up and made habitable, he said. Swinka also must pay or negotiate liens on the properties or pursue other legal options to obtain clean property titles, Vinsko said. Property records show Swinkas rst purchase in Luzerne County was in February 2012, when the company bought an apartment building on East Market Street in Newport Township for $840 from the repository, a pool of properties that did not sell at prior free-and-clear sales. Northeast Revenue records indicate Swinka now owes $2,719 in school, county and local taxes from 2012 on the apartment building, which is assessed at $125,600. Rodgers said Swinka will be banned from future private bids if the court ends up rescinding any company bid due to failure to pay.

White House criticizes Russia for meeting with Snowden


who met privately with Snowden in the transit zone of Sheremetyevo airport on Friday said Snowden wants asylum in Russia and is willing to stop sharing the secrets in his possession in exchange for such a deal. White House spokesman Jay Carney said Russia should instead send Snowden back to the U.S. to face the felony charges that are pending against him. Providing a propaganda platform for Mr. Snowden runs counter to the Russian governments previous declarations of Russias neutrality and that they have no control over his presence in the airport, Carney said. Its also incompatible with Russian assurances that they do not want Mr. Snowden to further damage U.S. interests. State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki used similar language to express disappointment over the meeting. We are disappointed that Russian officials and agencies facilitated this meeting today by allowing these activists and representatives into the Moscow airports transit zone to meet with Mr. Snowden despite the governments declarations of Russias neutrality with respect to Mr. Snowden, Psaki said. Our concern here is that hes been provided this opportunity to speak in a propaganda platform. President Barack Obama and Russian President Vladimir Putin discussed Snowden, among other issues, during a telephone call on Friday, the White House said in a terse statement that provided no specifics of their conversation about the NSA leaker. Carney said the call was planned several days ago, suggesting that it was unrelated to Snowdens meeting with the activists. Carney said Snowden is not a human rights activist or a dissident. He is accused of leaking classified information, has been charged with three felony counts and should be returned to the United States, the spokesman said. Carney also urged the

Russian government to afford human rights organizations the ability to do their work in Russia throughout Russia, not just at the Moscow transit lounge. Snowden is believed to have been staying at the airport transit zone since June 23, when he arrived by air from Hong Kong. He fled to Hong Kong from the U.S. before his revelations were made public. Snowden had been expected to transfer in Moscow to a Cuba-bound flight, but he did not get on the plane.

Brewer
From page 1A brewing began, company owners, Ed and Fred Maier and Mark Nobile, said Jurado has done what he was asked and has left on good terms. We knew this day would come, said Nobile. Fortunately, he added, Hagner was on board to quickly take over the brewing responsibilities. An education in beer Hagner, who was born in Florida and grew up in New Jersey, Maryland and North Carolina before his family nally headed back to New Jersey, where he graduated from high school and then earned an economics degree from Carleton College in Northeld, Minn. But beer is what he really got an education in for the past three decades. He spent six months in Europe Austria and Germany in particular in 1980 and fell in love with the Bavarian brewing tradition. When he returned to the states he went knocking on the door of the Pabst brewery in Newark, N.J., looking for a job any job. He was offered a clerical position, but he made it a point to interact and talk to brewers and those involved in all facets of the brewing process. After that brewery closed in 1983, he sent himself to the famed Siebel Institute in Chicago. The brewing academy drew brewers from beermaking operations around the world, but Hagner said he was one of only two students that were there without a brewery afliation. He graduated president of his class. He became a home brewer and learned what he could about the process. His career then took him to a brewing company in Little Rock, Ark., where he became a brewmasSusquehannas owners are looking forward to as Hagner leads them into the future. Jamie is a highly talented guy, and his goal was to help us build a highly capable brew house and help us get down the road, said co-owner Ed Maier. Thats what his laser focus has been on: our stability. But Jurado enjoys new challenges, Maier said, and a small brewery like ours is not lled with a whole heck of a lot of action. The brewery is not going to miss a step with Hagner in charge, the owners said. Different kind of car Jurado said that while hes been honored to be able to use his skills and know-how at Susquehanna, he doesnt believe theres much more for him to do there until the brewery expands, and that wont be for a few more years. He called himself a Formula One driver but likened the Susquehanna Brewery to a smaller-engine machine. Ive personally concluded that as much as I love it in Pittston, a Formula One driver cant be happy in a go-kart for extended periods, and I dont expect beautiful SBC to reach Formula One stage for a few years, Jurado said. He said he has rm offers for the next step in his career but declined to identify them. As for Hagner, Jurado said Susquehanna Brewing is in phenomenal hands. Guy Hagner is a ne brewmaster and is entrenched in the community we are so fortunate in having him and Ive been the luckiest brewer on earth to have him since we started commissioning. I tasked Guy to determine key operating issues. In every task that I asked Guy to take ownership of, he has done a superior job. SBC is so very lucky.

ter for the rst time. From there he went to the Dixie Brewing Co. in New Orleans, where he served as an assistant brewmaster and then the brewmaster. Planting roots in NEPA In 1990 he was hired as the brewmaster at the Lion Brewery in Wilkes-Barre and fell in love with Northeastern Pennsylvania. By this time he was married with two children, and Mountain Top became the familys home. In 1995 he set off on his own and started The Franconia

Brewing Co. near Mount Pocono. The brewery, after an ardours three-year-process of raising enough money to begin brewing, lasted eight months before shutting its doors. He worked as a consultant and accepted a brewmaster job at the Lakefront Brewing Co. in Milwaukee in 2004. But home was where his heart was and the family decided that Luzerne County was where they belonged. We didnt want to uproot the family and leave the area, Hagner said. So while the

position and the brewery were nice, it just wasnt the right t. We really liked this area and we became involved (in church, community groups and the Crestwood School District), Hagner said. We like the region, and were here to stay. In 2007 he started One Guy Brewing Co. in Berwick and operated it until 2011, when the word started to spread about a new brewing company looking to open in Luzerne County. Next step in a brewmas-

ters life He was among the rst seven brought on board and said hes glad he was given the opportunity. This is by far the nicest brewery Im ever going to be associated with, he said. It just would have killed me that this was operating and I wasnt part of it. And while he learned a lot about the brewing process and the engineering aspects of the craft from Jurado, his background in brewing and unique styles is something

Zimmerman
From page 1A The verdict came a year and a half after civil rights protesters angrily demanded Zimmerman be prosecuted. Zimmerman wasnt arrested for 44 days after the Feb. 26, 2012, shooting as police in Sanford insisted that Floridas Stand Your Ground law on self-defense prohibited them from bringing charges. Florida gives people wide latitude to use deadly force if they fear death or bodily harm. Martins parents, along with civil rights leaders such as the Revs. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, argued that Zimmerman whose father is white and whose mother is Hispanic had racially profiled their son. And they accused investigators of dragging their feet because Martin was a black teenager. Before a special prosecutor assigned to the case ordered Zimmermans arrest, thousands of protesters gathered in Sanford, Miami, New York and elsewhere, many wearing hoodies like the one Martin had on the night he died. They also carried Skittles and nature of the case, race was barely mentioned at the trial. Even after the verdict, prosecutors said race was not about race. This case has never been about race or the right to bear arms, Corey said. We believe this case all along was about boundaries, and George Zimmerman exceeded those boundaries. One exception was the testimony of Rachel Jeantel, the Miami teen who was talking to Martin by phone moments before he was shot. She said he described being followed by a creepy-ass cracker as he walked through the neighborhood. Jeantel gave some of the trials most riveting testimony. She said she overheard Martin demand, What are you following me for? and then yell, Get off! Get off! before his cellphone went dead. The jurors had to sort out clashing testimony from 56 witnesses in all, including police, neighbors, friends and family members. For example, witnesses who got fleeting glimpses of the fight in the darkness gave differing accounts of who was on top. And Martins parents and Zimmermans parents both claimed that the person heard screaming for help in the background of a neighbors 911 call was their son. Numerous other relatives and friends weighed in, too, as the recording was played over and over in court. Zimmerman had cuts and scrapes on his face and the back of his head, but prosecutors suggested the injuries were not serious. To secure a second-degree murder conviction, prosecutors had to convince the jury that Zimmerman acted with a depraved state of mind that is, with ill will, hatred or spite. Prosecutors said he demonstrated that when he muttered, F punks. These a-. They always get away during a call to police as he watched Martin walk through his neighborhood. To win a manslaughter conviction, prosecutors had to convince the jury only that Zimmerman killed without lawful justification.

BOOKSHELF

Mary Therese Biebel On a tour of the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, D.C., in March 2012, two Kings College alums were walking across the stage together when Colin Walsh suddenly dropped to one knee, held out a sparkling engagement ring and asked Stephanie Gawlas to marry him. Saying yes, Stephanie was astonished by a burst of cheering and applause from the balcony. Unbeknownst to her, Colin had arranged for her parents, Stephen and Nancy Gawlas of Hanover Township, and her sister, Alyssa, to be there, along with his parents, Charles D. and Cynthia Royer Walsh of Northampton; sister Mary Catherine Kresge and brother-in-law. Im very intuitive, but I had no idea, Stephanie said, recalling her surprise and delight. The theatrical setting for the proposal was especially appropriate because the couple, who exchanged vows on July 6 in St. Nicholas Church, Wilkes-Barre, rst got to know each other in the Kings College theater department. Back in 2008, they appeared together in the leading roles of Romeo and Juliet in what many consider Shakespeares most romantic play. They didnt begin dating until six months later, but even when they considered themselves just friends, other people sensed something more. I could just tell, maid of honor Alyssa Gawlas said. A sister always knows. It was just the way they looked at each other, mother of the bride Nancy Gawlas said. I didnt give it a lot of thought. I sort of forgot about it, but later on, when she told me they were dating, I wasnt really surprised. So the couple planned a festive wedding, with 12 attendants and many special touches. A handkerchief bonnet the bride wore as a baby would be attached to the stem of her bouquet. A cloth embroidered by the brides greatgrandmother, Bertha, when she was growing up in Germany, would cover the altar table. An uncle of the bride, John Rama of Clarks Summit, would greet the couple with bagpipe music after

the ceremony, and their guests would shower them with white rose petals. A subtle touch of Romeo and Juliet appeared at the wedding, including a guest registry with the complete script printed on it, the playing of the classic A Time for Us at the church and the couples choice of Romeo and Juliet by The Killers as music for their rst dance at the reception. There was a great deal of dancing at the reception, guest Anne Rodella said later, explaining how, during the last song or two of the evening, some of the couples theater friends hoisted them onto their shoul-

Red-hot Helen Mirren back for more inRed 2


Amy Longsdorf At one time, Helen Mirren was best known for her Oscar-winning performance as the title monarch in The Queen. But then Red opened in 2010 and became a surprise hit. Audiences embraced Dame Helens turn as a deadly assassin, and she quickly began developing a different kind of reputation. Well, the word badass does occur quite frequently, she says with a chuckle. I love being a badass. Its just the best. To lurch from being a queen to a badass is really cool. Mirren is nothing if not cool. And this year, shes red-hot too. The actress recently wrapped up an acclaimed run reprising her role as Queen Elizabeth in The Audience, the new play by Peter Morgan, who also penned The Queen. Mirren also starred alongside Billy Crystal, John Goodman and Charlie Day in Monsters University, one of the seasons biggest hits. And she returns to her role of former sniper Victoria in Red 2, opening Friday. Mirren didnt have to think twice about joining the cast of the sequel. People really enjoyed the rst one, and Im glad we got to do a second one, she says. Its lovely to reprise a character as well. The character takes on a different kind of life when you come back to it. Its like when I did Prime Suspect and I kept coming back to Jane Tennsion. Its funny; they become more a part of your personal

life. I feel that about Victoria now. Shes just a great, funny, surprising sort of character. Shes someone who hasnt really been done before on screen. Its always sort of a miracle when you can do something that hasnt been seen before. Shes a very rened character who has this other life. In Red 2, Mirren goes back to this other life when shes called upon by her fellow former blackops agents (Bruce Willis, John Malkovich) to help them hunt down a weapon of mass destruction. Also on board for the adventure: Anthony Hopkins, Mary-Louise Parker and Catherine Zeta-Jones. While Red is a comic thriller,

Mirren still took her work in the lm seriously. She attended classes on how to handle a gun and read dozens of books about the secret lives of spies. I think the wonderful thing about Victoria is that shes so sort of ladylike and together, and of course, in reality, thats what these (spies) are like, the actress says. As she did with the rst movie, Mirren was adamant about at least one aspect of Victorias wardrobe. For the scenes in which the assassin showed off her prowess with a rie, Mirren insisted she be given the right footwear. I think Victoria absolutely prefers killing in formal wear, Mirren says. But shes got to have the right shoes

on. The shoes are very important. In the rst one, theres a sequence where she has a purse, and out of it comes these combat boots. That was completely my idea. I said, You cant do this sort of job in high heels. If youre going to be serious about it, I want her to be wearing the right shoes. Mirren says she works hard to make Victoria look condent and relaxed on screen. The challenge in doing something like Red and its why Bruce is so brilliant in these movies is having a sense of ease and relaxation. And thats where the real work is in a movie like this. Its not in the preparation. If its in the preparation, its prepping yourself to realize that youve got to be free. And its very difcult to be free on a lm set. The whole setup is not free. Its so technical and controlled. To get on that set and be free requires a great skill. Bruce has it to the max. I would always watch Bruce and take my lead from him. To hear Mirren tell it, underneath the laughs and bursts of violence, Red 2 is about something substantial. At its heart, the movie is a look at how tough it is to grow old. These are old professionals, Mirren says. They are retired, extremely dangerous people with a depth of knowledge and professionalism and world weariness that makes them very phlegmatic and down-to-earth. Its lovely to play that.

WHY MARY BETH WHY Author: Helen Ogrodnick Publisher: Rebel Ink Press Available: July 17, at amazon.com, barnesandnoble.com, allromanceebooks.com When inspiration struck last year, Helen Ogrodnick, a resident of Warrior Run since 1960, started writing down her dreams. With no formal education in crafting works of ction, the 78-year-old is prepared to release her third e-book through Rebel Ink Press this week. Its just something I decided I was going to do. I have had no training or anything at all, Ogrodnick gushed in a Ogrodnick recent phone interview. Taking on a new task has had its challenges, but she said a positive, can-do attitude has helped her survive so many things, including the publishing world. Ive always said God gave me two hands and two feet, so I can do anything anybody else can do. This day and age, it may take me longer to do it, but I can Why Mary Beth Why still do it, she said. A positive attitude will get you through life without any problems. Ogrodnicks two previous novels are available at amazon.com, barnesandnoble.com, and allromanceebooks.com. Jamis Dilemma, released March 17, is $4.99 and Dear Elvira, released May 17, is $5.99. She and her husband of 58 years, Walter, have six children, 10 grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. Times Leader: How did you come to write your rst novel? Helen Ogrodnick: Years and years ago, my husband had a stroke. He lost his peripheral vision and his short-term memory, which was really, really hard to get back. We still do anything we can to keep him memory sharp. My three sons, my husband, Walter, and I were playing poker one evening. After that poker game, my oldest son started to massage my neck and shoulders. I said, Walter, Im going to have to ask you to stop. I dont like to have my neck touched. I think in my past life I was probably a prostitute that was strangled by her John. That night, I dreamed about it, and the next night I dreamed about it. It seemed like I kept dreaming that entire book. I wrote down everything I dreamed, and thats how my upcoming book, Why Mary Beth Why, got written. TL: How many novels have you nished? Ogrodnick: I wrote the rst four last year Im struggling with the one Im working on now. Its not as easy to write as the others were. Its a completely different thing from what Ive written before. I think I threw myself off track when I started it by going in a different direction. TL: It seems all of your books are released on the 17th. Do you have any connection to that number? Ogrodnick: Not really. Thats the number given to me by Rebel Ink Press. But would you believe thats my favorite combination. When I go up to the race track, the rst thing Ill do is head to the window for a 1 and 7 daily double or whatever happens along. Youd be surprised by how often they do come in. TL: How do you categorize the books? Are they romance novels? Ogrodnick: Theyre basically a light romance. The heat level (doesnt) get over 2. I had a strict upbringing. I couldnt bring myself to do anything more than that.
TL: What challenges have you faced in becoming an author at age 78?

chughes@timesleader.com

Ogrodnick: Trying to learn the computer. I could write on the computer, but trying to learn it and write on it are two different stories. I wont lie. I still have to have help with it on occasion. Im not ashamed to ask or say I need help. Thats the only way a person learns, and when you quit learning you may as well be six feet under.

Even the thundering hoofs of mortality cant drum out the memory of old-time treats
I dont know about you, but I have no need of stiff joints or unreadable type on fast food menu boards to tell me that Im getting on. These days, few things make me feel like Im sliding into history faster than spotting a pricey collectible on Tom eBay and realMooney izing that its Contributing something once Columnist as common as dirt. Yes, folks of my age, the thundering hoofs of mortality are upon us amid a blizzard of vintage tin signs and other memorabilia for products that mom once sent you down to the corner grocery for. So, since we cant reverse time, lets do the next best thing: take a quiz. See how many of these now-vanished goods from local shops circa 1950 you remember. Incidentally, to show you how times have changed, most of them were locally produced. Answers are at the end. A. This brand of bread from New York state, once found in every Wyoming Valley market, came in a loaf labeled Table Queen. B. Youd probably also have to pick up a quart (nobody bought gallons) of this milk from a company headquartered on Wilkes-Barres Hazle Avenue. C. Wyoming Valley was once a center of the snack food industry. This nut company, in Kingston, sent its products all up and down the East Coast. D. Ah, ice cream! A giant, smiling cone sang the TV jingle for this really great company in Plymouth. E. I still drool over the delicious devils food cupcakes with vanilla coconut icing made in this big commercial bakery in Kingston. F. This soda, made in a plant on South Washington Street in Wilkes-Barre, had a unique barrel-shaped returnable glass bottle, and I still think its a crime that you cant buy it around here anymore. G. These potato chips were a bit on the greasy side, Ill admit, and Im not sure where the factory was, but it was a proud (and crunchy) local product whose mascot was a guy wearing a kilt. H. Wilkes-Barre was a true cookie monster, thanks to this company on North Pennsylvania Avenue. I. OK, enough food for a while. In the era before detergents became popular, your mom might well have washed the family clothes in this product packed in a big red box. J. Being a kid, you couldnt buy this stuff yourself. But dad might well have lit up a pipe full of it, packed in a building on WilkesBarres South Main Street, by way of his favorite smoke shop. So if youre ever moved to decorate your home with memorabilia from old-time products like these, just search for them online. Youll find many signs, bottles, advertisements and packaging that are quite affordable. The shock to your nervous system, though, might be considerable when you realize that the everyday products you grew up on are now as much history as artifacts from Louis XVIs boudoir.

VOWS

The church was filled with relatives and friends, including many from the local theater community.

ders so they could dance in the air. That sounds like a much happier ending than the tragic demise Shakespeare gave his starcrossd lovers in the play. In fact, Stephanie and Colins story is happier all the way around. Instead of the warring Capulets and Montagues, there are two families happy to embrace a new daughter or son. He is so thoughtful, Nancy Gawlas described her new son-inlaw.He put a lot of thought into (inviting us to the proposal.) He was texting us, making sure we had the directions. On the morning of the wedding, while the bride and her attendants were out having their hair done, he slipped into her parents home and left a bouquet of white roses. In another thoughtful gesture, Colin made sure to buy the engagement ring at Bartikowskys in Wilkes-Barre, before it went out of business, because thats where Stephanies father had bought her mothers ring. On the first Saturday in July, Colin and Stephanie exchanged vows not furtively in front of Friar Laurence but openly and joyously in front of Monsignor Joseph G. Rauscher, great-uncle of the bride, and a church filled with friends

and relatives. In true great-uncle fashion, the monsignor told a family story about Stephanie how she was born not long after he and her father returned from a Notre Dame football game, and they were so glad they made it home in time. He also had a story to tell about Colin who as a little boy heard the biblical story about God putting Adam to sleep and removing a rib to create Eve. Young Colin reportedly approached his mother and said, Mommy, I dont feel too good. My side hurts. Maybe Im going to have a woman. At that, the congregation roared. So much merriment and good will was evident throughout the day, Rodella said, it reminded her not of Romeo and Juliet but Miranda and Ferdinand from Shakespeares The Tempest. Gaslight Theatre put on that show a few years ago, with Stephanie and Colin cast as the young lovers who meet on an island after a shipwreck. It has a much happier ending, said Rodella, who also appeared in that play. Speaking of happiness, the mother of the bride described the wedding as one of the best days of my life. The births of my daughters were my best days, and this

ranks right up there. Following a honeymoon trip to Riviera Maya, Mexico, the couple will return to Virginia, where Stephanie, 24, works as a firstgrade teacher for Loudoun County and Colin, 23, is employed by Catapult Consultants.

Britney Milazzo
Centre Daily Times (State College, Pa.)

More than 300 artists and 40 musical acts from around the country and the world will be featured at this years Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts, continuing through July 14. Executive Director Rick Bryant said the fest will host a kids day, a sidewalk arts and crafts sale, daylong book fest, live entertainment and musical theater shows, along with an end-of-event race at Medlar Field at Lubrano Park and more. Bryant said the Penn State Nu Musical Theatre is making its return after an absence of about six years. We are delighted to be returning to Arts Fest this year, as part of the festivals mission statement is to introduce new works of musical theater on a local, regional and national level, said Nu Musical Theatre Artistic Director Raymond Sage. Penn State School of Theatre students and professionals run the Nu Musical Theatre. They will hold workshops for visitors at the fest, and perform in two shows and a cabaret at the Penn State Downtown Theatre Center, Bryant said. Nu Musical Theatre will be performing a cabaret at the State Theatre at 10 p.m., July 12-13. Mu will offer two musical theater workshops at various dates and times including A Hair Out of Place a piece loosely based on F. Scott Fitzgeralds short story Bernice Bobs Her Hair, and Bleeding Love another performance for adults about a cloistered teen cellist who must nd a live rose in order to thaw the frozen heart of the rebel punk next door. History The Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts started 47 years ago after ofcials in State College found that there were not enough events downtown to attract shoppers to the area. Bryant said the Penn State College of Arts and Architecture teamed up with the Chamber of Business and Industry of Centre County to create a sidewalk sale for artists and performers. It kind of took off, and thats why were still here today, Bryant said. Bryant said the festival attracts more than 100,000 visitors from around North America. Bryant said the fest lines more than a mile of downtown streets and University Park campus, with the center of the fest being at the College AvenueAllen Street intersection. Arts Fest celebrates the arts with a sidewalk sale and exhibition, gallery exhibition, sand sculpture and music, and dance and theatrical performances in a variety of traditional and nontraditional venues. Bryant said indoor and outdoor shows and concerts will be available to the public, including live entertainment from musicians from as far away as California and Nova Scotia, Canada.

Based on laboratory wear simulation testing, the LEGION Primary Knee System with VERILAST Technology is expected to provide wear performance sufficient for 30 years of actual use under typical conditions. The results of laboratory wear simulation testing have not been proven to predict actual wear and performance in people. A reduction in total polyethylene wear volume or wear rate alone may not result in an improved clinical outcome as wear particle size and form are also important factors in the study of the potential for wear caused by loss of calcium from bone and implant loosening. These other factors were not studied as part of the testing. There are potential risks with knee replacement surgery such as loosening, fracture, dislocation, wear and infection that may result in the need for additional surgery. Do not perform high impact activities such as running and jumping unless your surgeon tells you the bone has healed and these activities are acceptable. Early device failure, breakage or loosening may occur if you do not follow your surgeons limitations on activity level. Early failure can happen if you do not guard your knee joint from overloading due to activity level, failure to control body weight or accidents such as falls. Knee replacement surgery is intended to relieve knee pain and improve knee functions. Talk to your doctor to determine what treatment may be best for you.

NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD PUZZLE

HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Nothing is all good or all evil. Avoid people who talk in extremes or try to sway you far to one side they will make life too complicated. Stick with the mild, reasonable types now. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). If time is on your side, consider yourself lucky. Its one of the better forces to have working for you. This evening, youll be made aware of how rapidly life is changing for someone you know. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Stick up for your friends, especially when their nearest and dearest share less-than-complimentary information. Familial love can be complicated. Take everyones opinion with a grain of salt, even your own. CANCER (June 22-July 22). The problem you deal with day in and day out is not only your problem; its shared by thousands of others. All you have to do is reach out a bit, and youll find the support you need. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Youre all for letting people get to know the real you, as long as the real you is more or less appropriate for the situation. Todays success rides on your ability to choose the most effective version of who you really are. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You may not be a daredevil exactly, but youre a chance-taker in areas of life that do not involve the possibility of bodily harm. Youll astound with the impulsive and bold move you make today. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You are like Hercules battling the lion today. It seems like an unfair match, but youll dominate and win in the end. If your victory doesnt happen quickly, take heart: It took Hercules 30 days. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). When chasing old dreams feels tired (if not, heaven forfend, desperate), its time to invigorate your daily life by dreaming anew. If youre going to chase something, make sure its fresh excitement. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). What could possibly go wrong? is a dangerous question. The answers that spring to mind probably wont occur. The answers that dont spring to mind will show up in real time to keep things interesting. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Amazing things are accomplished in the name of fun and games. If youre not having fun, youll accomplish approximately half as much. A change of schedule will bring a change of heart. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The same people who are extremely shy are usually highly sensitive and thoughtful and worth taking the time to get to know. Break the ice with that person who cant break it alone. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Dont be afraid to leverage your relationships. You took the time to build them, so why not use them? Your friends would love to help you, especially if its something fairly easy for them to do. TODAYS BIRTHDAY (July 14). A cosmic boost to your confidence has you sailing into this new era with a posse of new friends. August hands you a career choice. The end of August brings a lifestyle improvement. Your loyalty will be tested in September. Youll make an auspicious trade. November launches an ambitious quest. Leo and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 1, 24, 38 and 14.

DEAR ABBY
ADVICE

Married friends never leave spouses at home


Dear Abby: I am a 58-year-old woman who would like your take on a problem I have with several married female friends and my married sister. During the many years I have been close to these couples, the women seem unable to have one-onone conversations, outings or a lunch date with me without including their husbands. Several times after making a lunch date, one friend, unbeknownst to me, has called her husband and invited him as well. Another friends husband never seems to allow her to talk to me alone, and will even be on speaker or another phone listening again, unbeknownst to me until he suddenly says something. My sister will not read her emails from me, but instead has her husband read them aloud to her while shes doing something else and then dictates a few words to reply to me with. Consequently, I stopped emailing her and told her why. There is nothing I would say to these ladies that I wouldnt want their husbands to hear, but can you tell me why certain women feel a need to include their spouses in their female relationships in this manner? At the very least, I feel it is extremely rude. Frustrated With My BFFS
7/14

As to your sister, she may be too busy with household chores to read your emails and reply to them, which is why she has her husband read them to her, or you may have sent more than she can handle. Not sending her any more emails is not the solution; telling her how you feel might be. Dear Abby: Last year a neighbor confided to me that she had been sexually assaulted. In an effort to both show and invite compassion, I told her I empathized with her because I had been assaulted on multiple occasions as a child and teen decades ago. I have now learned that this woman has told other neighbors that I had sex with a lot of men, but she failed to put it in the context that I was a child victim of multiple predators. How should I respond to this? Should I ignore the situation or explain the truth to the neighbors? I dont know whether or not to confront the woman who divulged the information. I am shocked that shed do such a thing. I have no shame or guilt issues over what happened to me because I worked through that long ago. But Im at a loss about what, if anything, I should do. I have already learned the painful lesson that she wasnt worthy of my trust and has serious issues of her own. What are your thoughts on this matter? Re-Victimized Dear Re-Victimized: You have every right to be angry with the blabbermouth. Because the word is out, set the record straight with the neighbors who were kind enough to tell you your confidence wasnt respected. And in the future, I wouldnt blame you if you avoided the woman who started the rumors whenever possible, and let her know why.

Dear Frustrated: Your friends may assume that you like their husbands company as much as they do. They may feel that because they tell their spouses everything, their menfolk might as well hear what you have to say directly from you. Or their husbands may be retired or semiretired and have no social lives of their own. Of course, the way to get a direct answer to your question would be to ask THEM why they do this, and because you feel it is rude, you should tell them.

Major Crimespicks up where The Closerleft off


Kyra Sedgwick might have chosen to retire from The Closer, but the rest of the gang is back for a similar series called Major Crimes: The Complete First Season (2012, Warner, unrated, $40), which picks up right where the earlier show left off. Captain Raydor (Mary McDonnell) is in charge now and, in contrast to Sedgwicks rule-bending Deputy Chief Brenda Johnson, Raydor is as bythe-books as you can get. Raydors rocky relationship with the Major Crimes team (G.W. Bailey, Anthony Denison, Raymond Cruz) receives plenty of screen time but its the mysteries that dominate this 10-episode set and, with an exception or two, theyre all engrossing, particularly a killing spree by a sniper, a gang shooting and a botched heist perpetrated by ex-soldiers. McDonnell, who was nominated for an Emmy when she guested on The Closer back in 2011, hails from WilkesBarre. Not long after she was born, she moved to Ithaca, N.Y., where she was raised. For more than two decades, McDonnell worked almost exclusively on stage and in TV until, at 37, she made her starring lm debut as Stands With A Fist in Dances With Wolves. She followed that Oscarnominated turn with roles in Passion Fish, Grand Canyon, Sneakers and Independence Day. Its a testament to McDonnells talent that she makes Captain Raydor so fascinating. Sedgwick had the benet of playing a maverick, and mavericks are, inherently, fun to root for. McDonnell, by contrast, has to nd a way to turn a cautious, humble woman into someone appealing. She not only succeeds, but she makes Raydor more interesting with each episode.

Pacific a silly rimshot, as summer movies go

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Sheer madness. Thats what this is, this movie that Guillermo del Toro just HAD to make, and for which he abandoned The Hobbit. Dude wanted to make a Godzilla movie. Married to a Tranformers picture. With a little Starship Troopers and Independence Day and Hellboy mixed in. Its the future of cinema or the present: a movie cunningly calculated to lure Hollywoods biggest growth market with just its title Pacic Rim. Thats where this sci war is fought and thats where the audience lies American fanboys and Asian and Australian ones, too. In the very near future, enormous alien beasts are sneaking into the ocean through a dimensional crack in the ocean oor along the Pacics Ring of Fire. The Japanese named them kaiju, because Godzilla already was taken. And after realizing battling these monsters is a toxic disaster, the worlds governments teamed up to build gigantic, human-controlled robots called jaegers, after the German word for hunter. The pairs of rangers who drive them wear armor that lets them maneuver them one ranger controls the left side and left brain, the other the right side through a neural mind-meld process called drifting. In a prologue, we meet a pair of mind-melded brothers (Charlie Hunnam, Diego Klattenhoff) who drive the jaeger Gipsy Danger into harms way. But things go wrong and one sibling is killed. That heralds the end of this jaeger program. The world will wall off the coast along the Pacic Rim, with the rich and powerful getting the primo interior real estate and the rest of

Idris Elba, left, and Charlie Hunnam star in Pacific Rim.

the populace stuck building the walls and living on the coasts. Cut to years later and the jaeger program is winding down, the wall is being completed but our best scientists (shrieking Charlie Day of Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia, daft-Brit Burn Gorman of Game of Thrones) dont think the wall will work. The monsters keep coming. Rebellious returning ranger Raleigh (Hunnam of TVs Sons of Anarchy) angles to get martial arts mama Mako (Rinko Kikuchi of Babel) as his partner. And program director Stacker Pentecost (Elba) says Thats not going to

happen. Any movie that recycles the line Dont get cocky, kid, for starters and progresses to Fortune favors the brave, dude isnt meant to be taken seriously. The leads are bland, and the cast doesnt so much perform as show up and give us tastes of patented shtick that we expect. Dumb movies like this dont invite much analysis. In a cinema season where the laws of physics take a vacation (Fast & Furious 6), where everyones mad for the apocalypse from the biblical to the zombie-induced Pacic Rim is the maddest of all.

Carmel is a sweet California getaway by the ocean


Samantha Feuss
McClatchy-Tribune News Service

CARMEL, CALIF. Carmel is a great spot to get away from it all. Its the perfect place to show how sweet and charming you are, whether its a wedding, proposal, romantic hideaway or girlfriend getaway. A small but active and artistic area, you will nd plenty of shopping, museums, theater, exquisite wine and savory food, which are all just perks in addition to the main character: the beautiful coastline. Carmel-by-the-Sea often called simply Carmel is a small town with a rich artistic history on Californias Monterey Peninsula. In the early 1900s, 60 percent of Carmels houses were built by those who were devoting their lives to work connected to the aesthetic arts, according to the Carmel Chamber of Commerce and Monterey County Convention & Visitors Bureau. The 2000 United States Census Bureau reported that the town had a total population of 4,081. As of the 2010 census, this number has decreased to 3,722. The area is home to the scenic 17-Mile Drive, Steinbecks Cannery Row, the Monterey Bay Aquarium,

world-renowned golf courses, Point Lobos Reserve and the Big Sur coast. Its very pet friendly; dogs can be seen everywhere, from sidewalks to stores, and restaurants to art galleries. The city offers some ne dining options, as well as others with a more modern air. Mundaka, a Spanish-style tapas restaurant in downtown Carmel, is the result of a love of food, wine, music and Spanish culture. The food comes in small plates meant for sharing. The drinks are organic and ingredients locally grown dont expect to order a cola in this establishment. The atmosphere is funky and artistic with live music, and the menu offers both vegetarian and non-vegetation options. Grasings offers ne dining that features fresh ingredients from Californias Carmel Coast and Central Valley. They have a varied wine list, and the desserts are delicate and delectable. You will want to make sure to save room for them. If youre in the area for a short period of time but want to really experience the food and wine, take the Carmel Food Tour.

RICE TWP. After experiencing the Region 5 Pennsylvania American Legion Baseball Tournament last year, Tunkhannock is eager to get back there. The team got one step closer on Saturday, getting strong pitching from Ty Weiss, who tossed a complete-game, threehitter en route to a 7-2 win over Nanticoke in the opening round of the Wyoming Valley American Legion League Playoffs at Mountain Post. These kids they know we got a shot to go to regionals. They enjoyed that experience last year and hopefully it will carry over, Tunkhannock manager Scott Zaner said. Theyre excited about the weekend. I was surprised at how relaxed they were because I was nervous. Theyre very focused. They want to get to regionals again. To get back to regionals and join WVALL top-seeded Swoyersville in the regional event that starts July 20, Tunkhannock will have to win this weekends double-elimination tournament. Today, the team faces Greater Pittston this afternoon at 4 in a battle of unbeatens in the doubleelimination event. GP knocked off Hazleton 5-0 in the earlier game on Saturday. Nanticoke and Hazleton play an elimination game at 1 p.m. today. See WEISS | 11C

for the Nittany Lions, who hope to have him full-go for preseason camp next month. The junior injured the wrist in the Blue-White Game in April. Penn State never revealed the severity of the situation, but it was serious enough that coach Bill OBrien said Zwinak might not see full contact until mid-August. Friday, though, looked to be a positive step for him. Zwinak is a warrior, said strength and conditioning coach Craig Fitzgerald, who oversaw the ve-event workout at Lift For Life. He got in that rehab and was in

all the time, working his hand, his wrist. So its no surprise hes ahead of schedule. And that all has to do with him, his diligence and our athletic training staff. Hes doing a tremendous job. He was out here and did every event today. That included everything from lifting heavy objects to anchoring his team at the end of the rope in the tug of war. At the start of the summer, there was some doubt as to whether Zwinak would be far enough long to participate in the event. If you asked me a

month ago if he could do this, Id say lets be cautious and not do it, Fitzgerald said. But he said, Im doing it. So hes ready to go. Its exciting.

OMAHA, Neb. Kenny Perry went for broke, and now he is back in contention for a second straight win in a senior major. Perry shot a 6-under-par 64 at the Omaha Country Club on Saturday and, along with Fred Funk, will go into the nal round of the U.S. Senior Open two shots behind leader Michael Allen. Perry, who was 10 shots off the lead after a 73 on Friday, gured he would need to halve the decit to have a chance Sunday. He posted nines of 32-32 and got some help from Allen, who went from 63 on Friday to 72 on Saturday and was at 8-under 202. See PERRY | 10C

LAUREL RUN One moment, Darryl Danko was helping workers break down the nish area. The next, he was carrying equipment. It seemed the courses career victory leader was everywhere on opening day of the Giants Despair Hill Club except where fans expected him to be. He never even attempted to take a car up the hill. I took a year off to try and reorganize, Danko said. Without the seven-time Giants Despair champion in the eld, Dankos old rival George Bowland of North Carolina ran away with the lead, gunning his 2002 BBR Shark up the steep, windy one-mile stertch of Northampton Street in 41.278 seconds. I had to give the old man a chance, Danko cracked. Me and him are good friends. Over the years, weve gotten to know each other pretty well. He pushes me to drive a lot harder than I normally would. Bowlands time was a far cry from Dankos all-time course record of 38.36 seconds, but ranks two full seconds faster than the time of 43.278 runnerup John Burke of Rumson, N.J. put up while running in a 1997 Reynard Champ Car.

Weve been building a new car, Danko said. And we just havent gotten the motor block yet. The Laurel Run resident said he expected to have the new car built in time to run on his home course this weekend, but the engine got held up in Colorado. Some things are out

of your control, Danko shrugged. So he threw all his energy this weekend into his other role with the event, serving as its co-chairman along with his father, Jack Danko Sr. Im just kind of disappointed he didnt run, the elder Danko said of Darryl. That was his choice. He felt like his big car wasnt ready. Jack Danko said Darryl Dankos second racecar the Lola Indycar could have been an option for this See DANKO | 11C

Weve been here before as 10-yearolds and came back the hard way after we lost to North Pocono in the opening game, American manager Jeff Doggett said. What were going to have to do is take it a game at a time, keep winning innings. Keep piecing things together and not worry about winning the thing just worry about winning innings. American started off well as Michael Luksic opened the game with a double and Ethan Zawatski followed with a home run. It was the rst of three two-run homers by Zawatski, who nished 3-for-3 with six RBI. The two-run lead didnt last long as

North Pocono struck for ve runs in the bottom of the rst all with two outs. Nate McClain and Jake Mastillo each swatted two-run homers in the inning. The power display continued in the second inning. Zawatski hit another two-run homer only to have Ryan Deom crack a two-run homer in the bottom of the inning to keep North Poconos advantage at three 7-4. The rst game of tournament play up at Abington, we had ve home runs in one inning, North Pocono manager Joe Walsh said.

A tale of two seasons for RailRiders


Dave Rosengrant
drosengrant@timesleader.com

CRAIN GAME
Our weekly look at the work of RailRiders president Rob Crain, who has given us back our baseball with a side order of promotions and entertainment. BEST OF THE WEEK: Obviously, future Hall of Famer Derek Jeters string of games was a unique treat that cant really be topped during the 2013 campaign. Playing to the Beer League stereotype perhaps, the RailRiders had Adult Softball Night at the same game as Thirsty Thursdays. MISSED OPPORTUNITY: With Jeter on the eld for four games, theres really nothing to have missed. He wore his trademark No. 2. He had an entourage of media swirling about him. He seemed to sign every autograph requested at the ballpark and around the region. With the spark the teams had in recent weeks the RailRiders won seven of eight at one point lets bring the rest of the New York Yankees here. The Yankees had six-game and three-game win streaks around the time of Jeters rehab, with Zolio Almonte, Chris Stewart and David Adams among the former players from the local team in the Bronx Bombers lineup. So lets just swap them out for a week, get the RailRiders into rst place and then then push the Yankees back into the AL East race. COMING UP: The RailRiders are back home Thursday to start a series with Louisville. Theres promotions throughout, but Saturdays combination of events offers something for everyone. Theres a pre-game band performing on a night in which Christmas in July will be celebrated complete with a Holiday Ornament Giveaway and Military Night will salute those who defend our freedom and those who have proudly served before.

A little more than three months ago, the RailRiders played their rst game to start a campaign that had so much promise. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre was optimistic heading into the season because not only was the team starting fresh with a new nickname at a revamped PNC Field, there was plenty of potential for the club with players who had a lot of success at one time or another in the minors or Major Leagues. Fast-forward to today and just 10 players from the Opening Day roster are on the 25-man roster. There have been many ups and downs for the team up until this point. What better time to look back than right now, before the AllStar break.

Before the rst pitch was thrown, the offense was said to be in good shape with nine players on the Opening Day roster combining to hit 160 home runs during top times at previous stops. But batters started off slow. The RailRiders began their stay at PNC Field dropping ve of their rst six games. If that wasnt bad enough, arch nemesis Pawtucket dealt SWB a season-opening, fourgame sweep outscoring the RailRiders 30-12 in those four games. The bright spots for SWB in those games was Corban Joseph lacing the rst hit in team history and Melky Mesa clubbing the rst home run; both currently reside on the disabled list. The rst RailRiders win was recorded by Ryan Pope, released in May, and the rst save went to Preston Claiborne, currently with New York. Vidal Nuno, who threw the rst ofcial pitch for the team getting the nod for the rst start, showed he was more than the right choice for Dave Miley and his club. He only had to make four starts for Scranton/ Wikes-Barre before New York realized his potential and called him up. The lefthander is currently on the disabled list, but in his four starts prior to getting the ball by the Yankees, he went 2-0 with a 1.44 ERA with 30 strikeouts and just two walks in 25 innings. On the same day Nuno was promoted, so was catcher Austin Romine. One of the top prospects in the organization was batting .333 for the RailRiders with a home run and four RBI in

14 games (42 at-bats) prior to his call-up. With April always comes those pesky showers. The RailRiders certainly had enough weather problems during the seasons rst month with seven games being postponed due to the weather. They had a span when they didnt play on four straight days. Cody Johnson, known throughout his minor league tenure for crushing home runs and striking out, made a little history before being released in May. During a school-day special in late April, the slugger blasted a home run that the stadium has never seen before when he crushed a ball off the rocks in center eld an estimated 450 feet. The shot was said to rival a home run hit by Darryl Strawberry during a game in 1995 when the ballpark was known as Lackawanna County Stadium. Thanks to a four-game sweep at Charlotte all doubleheaders the RailRiders ended the month with a 13-11 mark and appeared to be on the right track.

Cody Johnson blasted a home run to the rocks behind the center field fence at PNC Field in April. The shot was estimated at 450 feet.

After beginning the second month of the campaign with four straight wins at Gwinnett, the RailRiders endured a disastrous spell dropping 18 of their next 25 games to drop into fourth place in the International League North Division, eight games out of rst place. New York rehabbers started to help the RailRiders as well. Curtis Granderson joined Scranton/WilkesBarre for ve games at PNC Field and reliever Joba Chamberlain had a few appearances. Injuries in New York led to some highlights for SWB players as Claiborne, Joseph, Brett Marshall and David Adams all made their Major League debuts. Adams callup was perhaps the most unforgettable. He joined the Yankees and made his debut the day he turned 26, May 15 and collected his rst Major League hit. Joseph also nabbed his rst hit during his debut. Meanwhile, Dellin Betances moved from the starting rotation to the bullpen. After a few tough outings, Betances has been lights out. After his nal start his ERA was 6.00. He entered Saturday with an earned run average of 3.75 this season. In 18 appearances out of the bullpen, hes been nearly untouchable with a 2.14 ERA and 43 strikeouts in 33 2-3 innings. His last eight relief appearances have

It was a horrible start to June for Scranton/WilkesBarre as the RailRiders dropped 12 of 20 to fall to 10 games under .500 with a record of 32-41. It marked the rst time the franchise had been that far under the break-even point since the Yankees took over the club in 2007. That was also one game past the midway point of the season putting the team on pace for just 64 wins, which would be the lowest franchise total since winning 62 in 1994. More RailRiders went to New York in Zoilo Almonte, Thomas Neal and ace Chris Bootcheck. The roster was in shambles. Triple-A debuts were made by Cody Grice and Dan Fiortito two players who never played above Single-A in previous seasons. But help was on the way. When catcher J.R. Murphy made his Triple-A debut it began a roster overhaul. Veterans David Huff, Randy Ruiz, Corey Patterson, Fernando Martinez, Brent Lillibridge and Mike Zagurski joined the club and led a rejuvenation and seven wins in 10 games to end June. Sprinkled in the middle of the two stretches was a memorable RailRiders debut by Casey Stevenson. In Game 1 of a doubleheader he homered twice, including a walk-off blast in his rst game with the team. June came to a close with a 15-15 mark to stay within striking distance of a playoff berth.

As the weather swelled up to begin the current month so did the RailRiders. They continued a hot stretch to end June with a more impressive run, starting July reeling off six wins in a row and seven of nine to pull back to .500 for the rst time in mid-May. They pulled to within six games of division leader Pawtucket. Beginning the month, a few players received good news that outelder Thomas Neal and starting pitcher Chris Bootcheck would participate in the Triple-A All-star game for the International League. They join manager Dave Miley, who will skipper the I.L. club this week. Of course the biggest highlight so far of July and well the rst half was the appearance of Future Hall of Famer Derek Jeter, who played four games for the RailRiders at PNC Field. Where have they gone? Several players who were thought to be a big part of the club at some point throughout the season are now gone. Luke Murton, who blasted 25 home runs for Trenton in 2012, and Cody Johnson are now playing independently on different teams. Inelder Gil Velazquez has joined the Marlins organization at Triple-A New Orleans, while left-hander Juan Cedeno is now in the Braves organization with Gwinnett. Chien-Ming Wang, who had several strong outings for the RailRiders, joined the Blue Jays and is now on Buffalos roster and was scheduled to throw against his former team on Saturday.

THE WEEK AHEAD


The RailRiders have a slow week because of the Triple-A All-Star game Wednesday in Reno, Nev., so just four games will be played this week. The three-day break begins after this afternoons game at Buffalo. Heres a look of what the RailRiders can expect this week.
Buffalo Bisons

The series concludes this afternoon with Brett Marshall (4-6, 5.99) taking on a once-brilliant MLB starter for the Blue Jays Ricky Romero (1-3, 6.15). This was a matchup on July 4 at PNC Field in which Marshall got the win and Romero the loss. Marshall pitched a season-high eight innings, while Brent Lillibridge and Randy Ruiz homered off of Romero in the victory. The game started a brief three-game series between the clubs in which the RailRiders won both. For the season series, SWB has won ve of the eight meetings prior to Saturdays doubleheader. A trio of RailRiders will head to the All-Star Game at Aces Ballpark. Outelder Thomas Neal and ace pitcher Chris Bootcheck join skipper Dave Miley for the festivities, which includes Wednesday nights game. The game can be seen live on MLB Network at 9 p.m. The Triple-A Home Run Derby will be Tuesday night. Bootcheck, who started Game 1 of Saturdays doubleheader versus Buffalo, entered that outing with an 8-2 record and a 3.59 Neal earned run average and won his last three starts. He will make his second straight All-Star appearance, suiting up last year as a member of Toledo. He was also selected for the 2009 game when he Bootcheck played for Indianapolis. Neal will participate in his rst Triple-A All-Star Game but his fourth All-Star appearance in the last ve years. Entering Saturday with a .326 batting average, Neal played in the Eastern League game twice, and the California League All-Star Game in 2009. Miley is managing the Triple-A game for the third time. He previously skippered the 2008 club when he was with the Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre Yankees. His other time managing was 2002 as Louisvilles manager. When the break ends, the top afliate of the Cincinnati Reds comes to town for a four-game series beginning on Thursday. The RailRiders and Bats are hooking up for the rst time this season. Louisville is led by speed demon Billy Hamilton, who has swiped 52 bases already this season and began the season ranked as Cincinnatis top prospect. Hes a two-time Futures Game selection and will play in todays game in New York. Last year, Hamilton set a minor league record with 155 steals across High-A and Double-A. Veteran inelder Mike Hessman is Louisvilles leader in home runs clubbing 21 and is the current active leader in minor league home runs with 391 over 18 seasons. His career-high came last year with Oklahoma City when he smashed 35. The Bats are second in the I.L. West, but 12.5 games behind Indianapolis. They have the third-best ERA in the league at 3.64 and the third-lowest hits allowed giving up 788 in 851 innings this season.
Louisville Bats The All-Star Game

The Pirates added a righthanded bat to their 40-man roster Friday, acquiring rst baseman/outelder Russ Canzler from the Baltimore Orioles for minor league pitcher Tim Alderson. Canzler, 27, a Hazleton native, is a career .271 hitter in 29 major league games between 2011 (Tampa Bay) and 2012 (Cleveland). He was playing for the Orioles Class AAA afliate, and the Pirates optioned him to Indianapolis. The Pirates transferred right-handed pitcher James McDonald (right shoulder inammation) to the 60-day disabled list to make room for Canzler on the teams 40-man roster. McDonald has been on the disabled list for more than 70 days, so this

move does not affect his eligibility to return to the major league roster. Manager Clint Hurdle said the Pirates are trying to nd the right mix of 40 players who could help the team when rosters expand

in September or provide options to join the active roster sooner. As you get toward the back end of the season, its like pouring gas in a funnel. Hurdle said of picking players for the 40- and 25-man

rosters. A lot of it spins around, and you want to get it right down in that small hole coming out. In Canzler, the Pirates see a player with major league experience, versatility in the eld and some success at the plate. In three Class AAA seasons in three organizations Canzler is hitting .286 with a .366 on-base percentage. He will be used at rst base, third base and right eld in Indianapolis. Canzler was drafted by the Chicago Cubs in the 30th round of 2004. The Pirates acquired Alderson, 24, in 2009 from the San Francisco Giants in the Freddy Sanchez deal. He was 3-2 with a 2.79 ERA in 22 relief appearances for Indianapolis this season. Alderson was the Giants rst-round draft pick 22nd overall in 2007.

Kurt Busch contends for Chase

Hes kept his composure, kept that superior skill behind the wheel and kept pace this season with the best in the Cup series. Yes, Jimmie Johnson is again the driver to beat.

Busch is ninth in the points standings entering todays race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Hell start second in the No. 78 Chevrolet at a track where he has three career victories and he has win No. 1 of this season in sight. Busch has reeled off three straight top-six nishes and has ve top 10s in his last seven races to storm into contention and up the standings. For us to be in the Chase is a huge accomplishment for a single-car organization, Busch said. For me, its great to be back in the Chase and the fraternity of guys Im accustomed to hanging out

with over the years. With 24 career Cup wins, Busch had long proven himself as one of the top drivers in the sport. But hes had more teams (2) than wins (0) the last two seasons and hasnt pulled into Victory Lane since winning the fall 2011 race at Dover. He has plenty of time to take the checkered ag this season not that he necessarily needs a win to make the Chase. With eight races left until the 12-driver eld is set for the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship, Busch just needs to keep the steady top 10s coming to stick around. You dont have to win, but you have to stay away from those bad nishes, Busch said. If you do just nice, consistent runs, then you control your own des-

Tennis great Martina Hingis poses with her certificate during her enshrinement into the International Tennis Hall of Fame in Newport, R.I., on Saturday.

NEWPORT, R.I. Martina Hingis tennis life started right from birth and her days playing with a racket began barely after she learned to walk. It was only fitting that she became one of the youngest players to be enshrined into the International Tennis Hall of Fame. Hingis led a large 2013 class that was inducted Saturday during an oncourt ceremony that lasted just over 90 minutes, including a 25-minute rain delay on Newports grass courts. Born in Czechoslovakia before moving to Switzerland at a young age, Hingis was named after a womens tennis great. My biggest influence was my mom because she was a professional player, too, Hingis said during a news conference before the ceremony. She started me when I was 2 years old. Another was Martina Navratilova, obviously (my mom) gave me the name so that was the destiny that was programed already. When I started playing at 2 years old, that was the path. After the rain delay, Hingis, dressed in a purple sleeveless dress with her hair still soaked, told the crowd: Thank you, tennis. You gave me the world, and now I honestly am out of words, because there are no words to explain what I feel. You chose to give me a place here for eternity. Hingis is the fourth youngest to be inducted behind Tracy Austin (30), Bjorn Borg (31) and Hana Mandlikova (32). The 32-year-old Hingis burst onto the professional scene when she was 14. Two years later, she won three of the four major tournaments, taking the titles at the Australian Open, Wimbledon and U.S. Open in 1997. The memories were great. The pictures of a thin teenager, well, shell pass on those. I just dont want to look at the photos, she said, breaking into a laugh. In her career, Hingis won five Grand Slam singles championships including three straight at the Australian Open from 1997-99 and 43 singles titles overall. She also was a part of 37 doubles titles. Hingis, often troubled by foot injuries, retired for a second time in 2007, when she drew a two-year suspension for testing positive for cocaine at Wimbledon. Hingis denied taking the drug but did not appeal the ruling. Also enshrined were 94-year-old Australian great Thelma Coyne Long, inducted in the master player category, and industry leaders Ion Tiriac, Cliff Drysdale and Charlie Pasarell. Rod Laver accepted for Long. Six others were inducted in the masters category posthumously.

Scott Dixon kisses his wife, Emma, after winning the IndyCarrace in Toronto on Saturday. The drivers will be back at it again today over the same course.

Dixon wins second in a row


JENNA FRYER
AP Auto Racing Writer

TORONTO Long after Scott Dixon raised the winners trophy for the second week in a row, controversy and comedy hung over the first of two races through the streets of Toronto. What was certain was that Dixons win Saturday at Exhibition Place was the 31st of his career and moved him into a tie for seventh all-time with teammate Dario Franchitti, Sebastien Bourdais and Paul Tracy. It was also official that Bourdais finished second for his first podium since the 2007 Champ Car season. He didnt get much of a celebration, though: His trophy slipped off the pedestal and smashed into thousands of pieces. So he raised the biggest chunk he could find in triumph on a podium shared with Dixon and third-place finisher Franchitti. Then right before the traditional

champagne spray, the party turned serious: IndyCar had stripped Franchtti of his finish for blocking Will Power on the final restart. Franchittis Target Chip Ganassi Racing appealed the penalty, and the driver was summoned before series officials at least an hour after the race. It left the final finishing order undecided for two hours as the Ganassi team presented data from the incident. The end result? Almost two hours after the race, Franchitti was returned to his third-place finish. And to think, IndyCar gets to do it all over again today in the second of three doubleheader weekends on this years schedule. Dixon will be trying to make it three in a row, just a week after picking up his first win of the season at Pocono. Theres a $50,000 bonus out there if he can sweep the Toronto doubleheader. Yeah, you know, it sounds simple, right? Dixon said. But its not going

to be. There will be people trying to mix it up; people who had a bad day today will be trying to make it up in race two. Things got hairy right at the start of Saturdays race, which was supposed to be the IndyCar debut of standings starts. But race control aborted the procedure when Josef Newgardens car stalled on the track and the drivers couldnt line up in the proper formation. The drivers were pulled off the grid and brought back around the track for the traditional rolling start as the crowd howled its displeasure in being denied the highly anticipated standing start. IndyCar wasnt scheduled to try a standing start today to the delight of most of the drivers who feel they havent had enough practice to execute it correctly. But Marco Andretti said IndyCar should reconsider after Saturdays failure. It matters what the fans want at this point, I think, he said.

Tour turns to the mountains today


John Leicester
AP Sports Writer

LYON, France Now, the Tour de France goes sharply uphill, much more sharply than last year. More likely than not, the champion who will be crowned next Sunday in Paris will be the rider who copes best with this last week of vertical torture. The pain starts today on the horrid climb of Mont Ventoux. The barren white mountain rises from the sunbaked plains of Provence. The 181 brave souls who have survived the 2,325 kilometers (1,444 miles) ridden so far, out of 198 who started two weeks

ago, will see the climb coming long before they hit it, so there will be plenty of time for apprehension, for butteries in the stomach, to build. The forecast is for uninterrupted sunshine, so the riders will nd no relief from the weather either. As if the climb itself wasnt hard enough, they will already have ridden 221 kilometers (137 miles), setting off in the mid-morning, before even reaching the foot of the mountain in the late afternoon. So they will be tired for the ascension, too. Todays stage a grand total of 242.5 kilometers (150 miles), including the nal climb is the longest

of this Tour and starts in the Rhone valley town of Givors. Ventoux is always scary,

said Garmin-Sharp rider David Millar, a veteran of 12 Tours. Its going to be horrible for everyone.

LOUDON, N.H. Kyle Busch needed some OT to grab that checkered ag. Once he did, he bowed twice to the crowd. He could have done it one more time one for each green-white-checkered nish he needed to survive to win at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Busch dominated in regulation, then proved he had the car to beat in three attempts of NASCARs version of overtime to win the Nationwide Series race. Busch needed to drive 213 laps of a scheduled 200-lap race to win his seventh race of the season. He snapped a four-race winless streak and won his 58th career Nationwide race. He had enough fuel left in the tank to win from the pole for the fourth time this season. Busch then used it all up with one big burnout. We didnt want to have those late restarts, Busch said. We felt like we had just enough fuel to make it to the end. Who knew theyd need every drop? The bonus racing stretched just about every car on the track. Not everyone made it. Brian Vickers ran out of gas just as he crossed the nish line. Busch pitted for the nal time two laps after Vickers, on lap 119. He tried to conserve fuel through various methods and pad his stats for total laps led. He passed the 12,000 mark in career laps led and has 12,085 now. Its just about being out front and setting your own pace, Busch said. Its kind of like minding your own business. I like everyone away from me and to be doing my own thing. Joe Gibbs Racing drivers Busch (141), Vickers (63) and Matt Kenseth (nine) led every lap in the race. Vickers was second and Austin Dillon third. Brian Scott and Michael Annett round out the top ve. Finally, nothing stupid happened and we kept our nose clean and brought home a topve, Annett said. Nothing stupid, just wild. Busch had been the car to beat and seemed like he could put the No. 54 Toyota on cruise control heading into Victory Lane. Then the real fun started. Chad Hackenbracht spun out with two laps left of the scheduled nish, setting up the rst G-W-C. No sooner did they restart, than Landon Cassill ran out of fuel and stalled on the track. The caution came out and Mike Wallace pushed Cassill out of the way. There was a four-car wreck on lap 206 that brought out the caution ag yet again. Parker Kligermans car was stuck in the ineld mud for a bit after the accident.

PSU football coach speaks as university weighs proposal to NCAA for reduction of sanctions

LEMONT FURNACE Penn State football coach Bill OBrien gave a private presentation to the board of trustees Friday that indicates the university is considering asking the NCAA to reduce some of its sanctions. OBrien addressed the trustees behind closed doors in an executive session for more than an hour Friday morning at the Penn State Fayette branch campus. The presentation slides were visible from a hallway through several fulllength glass-paned doors into the room where the session was held. Its not clear what the proposal entails or when the request would be made to the NCAA. One of the presentation slides had the heading potential proposal to modify sanctions and one had a heading concerning the impact of the scholarship reductions that are part of the sanctions.

Another slide read Individual lawsuits do not help us! with the words do not underlined and in capital letters. That slide said the lawsuits would discourage the NCAA from working with Penn State to modify the consent decree. The lawsuits would result in bad press, the slide also read. OBrien addressed a trustees crowd that included Anthony Lubrano, Adam Taliaferro, Ryan McCombie, Alvin Clemens and Peter Khoury ve of the plaintiffs in the lawsuit the family of Joe Paterno brought against the NCAA to reverse all the sanctions. Earlier this year, Penn State trustee Paul Silvis said he was hopeful the NCAA would consider reducing the sanctions because of the progress the university had made on implementing the recommendations in Louis Freehs report. Silvis cited the work being done to implement the Freeh report recommendations.

As of Thursday, the Freeh recommendation implementation was almost nished, as the university said it had implemented 115 of the 119. After OBriens presentation was over, a number of trustees sprang from their seats and gave him a standing ovation. As he was getting ready to leave the campus, OBrien would only say that he was just here to say hello to some people and got into a Penn State van. Trustees and administrators who came out of the room after the session were tight-lipped, too. President Rodney Erickson didnt respond when asked to comment about OBriens appearance, and administrator Tom Poole said OBrien just wanted to see some folks. Trustees Joel Myers said the discussion was private and would not comment. Lubrano shook his head. Penn State lawyer Frank Guadagnino declined to com-

ment but said the session was purely informational and that it falls under the states Sunshine Laws provision regarding informational conferences. Guadagnino said no action was taken, and the matter would not be brought up at the boards voting meeting Friday afternoon. OBriens presentation comes one year to the day the university was rocked by the release of the Freeh report, which blamed senior university ofcials for concealing abuse allegations against Jerry Sandusky more than a decade ago. The NCAA used the Freeh reports ndings in lieu of its own investigation and handed down severe sanctions a week and a half later. OBrien won numerous coach of the year awards after guiding the Nittany Lions to an 8-4 record in 2012, despite the teams star running back leaving for Southern California and the kicker leaving for Texas.

Penn States schedules set for 2016, 2017


Times Leader wire services Penn State will host ve Big Ten opponents in 2016 and will welcome Michigan and Nebraska in 2017. That news was released on Thursday, when the Big Ten Conference announced the conference schedules for both years. The Nittany Lions also will host old rival Pitt in 2017 for the rst time since 1999. The Big Ten will launch East and West Divisions in 2014 and in 2016 the conference will move to a nine-game Big Ten schedule. The Nittany Lions will be in the East Division with Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State and Rutgers. Starting in 2016, every Big Ten team will play the other six schools within its division and also face three teams from the other division starting in 2016. Penn State will have ve conference home games during even-numbered years and have four Big Ten home contests during odd-numbered years. In 2016, Penn State will host Minnesota, Maryland, Ohio State, Iowa and Michigan State, closing the regular season against the Spartans for the third consecutive year on Nov. 26. The Nittany Lions will visit Michigan, Purdue, Indiana and Rutgers in 2016. During the 2017 campaign, Penn State will host Indiana, Michigan, Rutgers and Nebraska. The Nittany Lions and Cornhuskers will renew their rivalry, which will pause after this season with the new cycle of conference opponents starting in 2014. Penn State will travel to Northwestern, Iowa, Ohio State, Michigan State and Maryland, ending the regular season on Nov. 25, 2017 by visiting the Terrapins. The Nittany Lions will face a stretch of four Big Ten road games out of ve games overall at mid-season. The highlight of Penn States 2016 and 2017 non-conference schedules is the start of a fourgame series with old rival Pitt. The Nittany Lions visit the Panthers on Sept. 10, 2016, and Pitt returns to Beaver Stadium on Sept. 16, 2017. Penn State visits Pitt on September 8, 2018, and the Panthers will visit State College on Sept. 14, 2019. The Nittany Lions have met the Panthers more than any other opponent 96 times with Penn State owning a 48-42-4 on-eld series advantage. During the 2016 season, Penn State will host Kent State and Temple and in 2017 the Nittany Lions will host Pitt, Akron and have one home game remaining to be scheduled.

Zolnierczyk gets two-way deal from Pittsburgh


Rob Rossi
The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review

Ray Shero is on vacation, but he isnt taking much time off. Shero, the Penguins general manager, signed another player Friday. Forward Harry Zolnierczyk agreed to a one-year deal that will count $550,000 against the salary cap if he plays in the NHL. It is a two-way contract that will allow the Penguins to place Zolnierczyk on the Wilkes-Barre/S cranton Penguins roster. Zolnierczyk, 25, split last season with the Anaheim and Philadelphia organizations, playing in seven games with the Flyers. He produced an

assist and registered 36 penalty minutes in the NHL. The Penguins acquired him from Anaheim in exchange for defenseman Alex Grant on June 24.

Shero, who is vacationing with his family in Hilton Head, S.C., began this week addressing the nomination of his late father, Fred, into the Hockey Hall of Fame as

a Builder. Fred Shero won the Stanley Cup twice while coaching the Flyers in the 1970s. On Wednesday, Ray Shero addressed a need for a bottom-six winger by agreeing to a one-year deal with forward Matt DAgostini. That deal was a one-way contract that will count $550,000 against the cap. The cap is set for $64.3 million next season, and the Penguins are committed to 21 players at about $64.2 million, not including new contracts due to restricted free agents Dustin Jeffrey, a forward, and Robert Bortuzzo, a defenseman. Bortuzzo has elected a salary-arbitration hearing, but the Penguins will try to sign him beforehand.

The NHL labor contract allows clubs to go 10 percent above the cap during the summer, but the Penguins will have to make a roster move to get under the limit before rosters are set to open the season. Note: The Penguins have invited 37 prospects to their annual development camp, which will run from TuesdaySaturday next week at Consol Energy Center.

This years Lift For Life used an offense vs. defense scoring system, with the defense winning 220-152. The defense won two of the three climactic tug of war events at the end of the afternoon to clinch the win.

Defensemen impressive at camp for Flyers prospects


Sam Carchidi
The Philadelphia Inquirer

For the last three decades, the Flyers have struggled mightily to develop homegrown defensemen. They have made an attempt to change that. In the last two Junes, the Flyers have drafted defensemen with eight of their 13 picks. At the top of the list are Sam Morin and Robert Hagg. Morin, a 6-foot-6, 203-pounder, was chosen in the rst round (11th overall) last month, while the 6-2, 205-pound Hagg was selected in the second (41st overall). Both were among the players who opened eyes during the Flyers ve-day developmental camp, which ended Thursday in Voorhees. Thirty players participated in the camp. In a change from past years, there were no scrimmages because the organization wanted to reduce the chance of injuries. I think it went well, said Ian Laperriere, the Flyers director of player development. My plan this year was different. I wanted to bring more one-on-one work . It would have been easy for

me to have four scrimmages this week and throw a puck in the middle, but it wouldnt do anything good for those kids. Even though Hagg, who turned 18 in February, was selected 30 slots after Morin, some scouts had him rated higher. He has a quicker release on his shot and has played against older competition in Sweden. Morin, who turns 18 Friday, moves really well for a big guy, Laperriere said. Its impressive and hes got a great shot and moves the puck well. Laperriere called Hagg a quiet kid who is very smooth, very relaxed on the ice. He doesnt panic with anything. I just cant wait to see those two kids in a real game. Laperriere cringed when saying he had read Morin being compared to a young Chris Pronger. People have to relax a little bit. Hes 18 years old and if he does become Chris Pronger-like in the future, well be very happy, but hes a long way from that, he said. Seven defensemen taken in the last two drafts were at camp: Morin, Hagg, Terrance Amorosa, and David Drake from this

years class, and Shayne Gostisbehere, Fredric Larsson, and Reece Willcox from last years class. (Larsson didnt skate because of a knee injury.) General manager Paul Holmgren was pleased with the camp. This was the rst step in the process, Holmgren said. I was very happy with the level of play and the commitment everybody made. September camp. The Flyers will have four days of their training camp starting Sept. 19 in Lake Placid, N.Y., home of the United States Miracle on Ice victory over Russia in the 1980 Olympics. The rest of the camp will be at the Wells Fargo Center, because the Skate Zone in Voorhees is undergoing renovations. Breakaways. Holmgren said he expected defenseman Andrej Meszaros to be cleared medically in late July. That will give the Flyers a logjam on the blue line. You never have too much depth back there, the GM said. The Flyers will need to clear salary-cap space before the season starts. They are about $2 million over the $64.3 million cap,

but that includes Scott Laughton ($1.1 million), who could begin the season in juniors. Teams can exceed the cap by 10 percent in the summer.

New Eagles coach isnt about to call season a rebuilding year


Bob Grotz
Delaware County Times

Kelly ready to winright now


games are played at 1 oclock. The biggest position battle for the Eagles is at quarterback, where veteran Michael Vick, who has 56 NFL victories, takes on Nick Foles, who in six starts has beaten only the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. While Kelly has downplayed the competition and resisted all urges to name a starter, it is a big deal. Eagles fans know that as their quarterback goes, so goes their season. Kellys mantra is to treat everybody differently, just treat them fairly. The quarterback competition will test that. Were going to name a starter at some point in time, Kelly said. Thats why I think it would be unfair right now because there hasnt been enough situations to evaluate. If someone said, Hey, we have to play a game tomorrow, then we have to make a decision. But we dont have to play a game tomorrow. We have until Sept. 9. I dont think the positives of making an early decision outweigh making sure we make the right decision. Kelly, who grew up in Vermont, is every bit as eager to see which quarterback earns the spot as the fans who greet him on the street. Though he didnt specify the nature of the fan interaction on those jogging expeditions, the grin on his face told you it was creative. The fans in Philly tell you a lot of things, Kelly said. Its a very interesting town. Theyve been great. Its obvious theyre extremely passionate about the Eagles. Thats evident no matter where you go. Its been awesome. But we havent played a game yet either, so that could change. Eagles ownership, lest we forget, is wagering $32.5 million that Charles Chip Kelly can mold the franchise into a perennial contender much like he did at Oregon. Theyve given him ve years to do the job. Was Kelly the rst choice of Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie? Reports are Kevin Sumlin of Texas A&M was offered the job in Philly. Bill OBrien of Penn State also was a strong candidate. Like Kelly, both are offensive-minded guys. In addition to up-tempo football, Kelly has brought earnumbing music to practice, post-practice protein shakes and all-day-long nutrition concepts here from Eugene, Ore. Speaking of which, theres still the question of whether Kelly bailed on the Ducks because of potentially crippling NCAA sanctions. The crippling was greatly exaggerated. The Ducks are on probation for three years with a modest reduction in scholarships due to recruiting-service violations. Theyre still bowl-eligible. Oh, and Kelly essentially is on probation from coaching BCS ball for 18 months. The Eagles are hoping whatever Kelly has rubs off on them. Kelly is condent it can happen because without having to recruit theres a heck of a lot more time to devote to preparation. And, well, football is football. Its always been football, Kelly said. Thats what it is. The only difference is that obviously the season is longer and the size of your roster is different. But the game of football is still the same. Its still 11-on-11 and us going out there and preparing and being more fresh and ready to play than the other team.

PHILADELPHIA The schedule is longer, the roster innitely smaller. The major difference between the NFL and BCS football, the latter of which Eagles head coach Chip Kelly dominated, is the competition. No NFL franchise wins 87 percent of its games, as Kelly did the past four years at Oregon with a frenetic, explosive, nohuddle attack. Do we expect to go 46-7 over the next whatever years? No, Kelly said recently after ripping himself away from an evaluation of the third-down offense of Robert Grifn III and the Washington Redskins. I know its extremely difcult to win in this league. You just look at everybodys record over the history of the game. It is a different game from that standpoint. But thats part of it. Thats the challenge. You look at it and kind of embrace it. When Kelly gets away from that reality check, hes generally embraced by Eagles fans hungry to win. Theyve said hello, waved to him and even asked for autographs on his daily jogs through the neighborhood surrounding the NovaCare Complex. Kelly returns from those runs through the front gate, which is just across the street from the banners fans held urging management to re then-head coach Andy Reid. Reid was dismissed earlier this year after missing the playoffs in consecutive seasons for the only time in his 14-year tenure. He left with 140 victories, including 10 in the playoffs, and a 58.3 percent winning percentage. The Eagles turned the page

on Reid with a 4-12 nish that concluded with a brutal 30-17 loss to the New York Giants. Kellys job is to put the pieces back together. Rebuilding isnt in his vocabulary, even if it appears the Eagles are doing just that. My job is to win right now, Kelly said. How do you think Id be received in Philly if I told them we were going to write off this year? Those people that are waving to me on the streets right now, that isnt going to happen. But thats never been my mentality, either. Were not writing anything off. Were going out there to compete and see how it falls. If I went in the locker room and said this is going to be a really good year for us to get for the following year, thats not going to work. No one has a mindset like that. With training camp less than two weeks away, Kellys plan is for all of the players to bunk in a nearby hotel after spending their afternoons practicing largely at the NovaCare Complex. Thats when we play, Kelly said. Twelve or 14 of our 16

The fourth North Pocono homer looked like the backbreaker a three-run shot by Nick Rinaldi in the fourth that helped increase the lead to 11-5. If that wasnt, then the fth appeared to be as American was retired in order for the rst time. Things, though, got interesting in Americans last trip to the plate. After an out to start the sixth, Luksic singled. Zawatski then followed with his third two-run homer. Michael Anderson followed with a solo shot, moving American within 11-8. Michael Doggett then singled for the fourth consecutive American hit. An out later, Michael Collins and Mark Roginski reached on throwing errors, cutting the decit to 11-9. North Pocono, though, nally got that elusive last out.

Summerhays takes lead at John Deere Classic


The Associated Press

SILVIS, Ill. Daniel Summerhays shot a 9-under 62 on Saturday for a two-stroke lead following third-round play at the John Deere Classic. Summerhays, whose previous best nish on the PGA Tour was a tie for fourth, enters Sundays nal round at 19-under 194 and in position for his rst career win. Summerhays notched 10 birdies while matching the lowest third-round score in tournament history. Canadian David Hearn (64) is second at 17 under. Defending champion Zach Johnson held a share of the lead after each of the rst two rounds, but hes now alone in third after shooting a 67. J.J. Henry and Jerry Kelly are tied for fourth at 15 under, while Nicholas Thompson leads three golfers at 14 under. Summerhays had missed three straight cuts failing to shoot a round under 70 in those events before nishing ninth last week at the Greenbrier Classic. Hes been hot all weekend at Deere Run, though, and Saturday marked the lowest round of his career. Hearn nished with three birdies in four holes to pull within two shots of Summerhays. After matching 66s, Hearn went two strokes lower to give himself a chance on Sunday. Johnson had been remarkably consistent over his last six rounds at Deere Run. For the rst time in a long time, Johnson found himself battling just to hang close to the leaders. He eagled No. 2 with a 60-foot putt to grab the lead outright but a bogey at the par-4 6th was his rst here in 62 holes, and he picked up another one ve holes later. No amateur has won on the PGA Tour since Phil Mickleson kicked off his bril-

Eddie Biniek pitched ve strong innings to pick up the win. Wozniak struck out the side in the sixth to earn the save. Kyle Davies homered in the third from Archbalds only run. Dixon Black pitched a complete game, fanning nine.

Park nearly chipped in on the 18th hole for an eagle before tapping in a short putt for her sixth birdie on the back nine.

He was the only golfer to birdie the 501-yard, par-4 10th. He drove into the rough but recovered with a pitching wedge to 20 feet. He birdied the par-3 16th and the 297yard, par-4 17th to get to six under for the tournament.

Perry
From page 1C I was in that rocking-chair seat, Perry said. I was in a very aggressive mode, where if I go out and play great today, Ive got a chance to move my way up the leaderboard. Or if I dont play any good, its OK, too. It looked as if Funk, the 2009 champion, might fade after taking a double-bogey on No. 10. But he birdied the last two holes for a 67, rolling in a 35-foot putt on the 18th. Suddenly, he was right back in the tournament, too. To make that putt on 18 was a bonus, Funk said. Having

that good nish was great. At least it kept me in the game. Allen, a journeyman on the regular tour and a four-time winner since joining the senior tour in 2009, started with a 5-shot lead the largest after 36 holes in the tournaments 34-year history. He went out in even-par 35, but he bogeyed three holes on the back nine and came in with a 37. Obviously, yesterday was a lot of fun. I made a lot of birdies and very few bogeys, Allen said. Today I had a few more bads than goods, but its fun. Its nice to be in the lead. If youd have given me a 2-shot lead to start the week, I would have been pretty thrilled to have it, Im sure.

The 54-year-old Allen has been playing through neck pain. He rubbed the right side of his neck Saturday as he walked up the last two fairways. He saved par on the 17th but bogeyed No. 18 to set the stage for a dramatic nish. For a guy whos never had an injury, this has kind of been interesting for me, to see what guys have to go through, Allen said. Im trying to get through it. Its still tight. Rocco Mediate, who was Allens closest pursuer at the tournaments midway point, had bogeys on four of ve holes in the middle of his round and sat ve shots off the lead after a 72.

Weiss
From page 1C Weiss allowed four baserunners in the first inning and two of Nanticokes three hits. After that, though, he let just seven Nanticoke batters reach base and two of them were on Tunkhannock errors. He walked five and only needed to strike out two as he induced two double-play groundouts and didnt allow a hit after the third inning. He doesnt pitch hard. He has a sneaky fastball and sometimes throws against the hitter starting out with the slow stuff first, Zaner added. But man, hes just a big-time player. The teams traded runs scoring on errors in the first inning. Tunkhannock took another lead in the top of the third getting an RBI double from Weiss. Josh McClain (2 for 4) followed with a run-scoring single to put the team ahead 3-1. Nanticoke, which had the bases loaded with no outs in the first and only got one run in, threatened to even the score once again in the bottom of the third as Mickey Ferrence singled in a run with one out to cut the lead to 3-2. But Weiss got a double-play grounder to end the inning. Nursing that one-run advantage in the top of the fifth, Zaner called on Jordan Hannon to pinch hit with runners on second and third and no outs. Hannon, who just finished his sophomore season at Lackawanna Trail, came through lacing a tworun single through the hole on the left side of the infield to extend Tunkhannocks lead to 5-2. Cody Brown added a sac fly in the inning, scoring Hannon for a 6-2 lead. Zaner said it was Hannons third clutch hit this season for the club. Alex Zaner (2 for 3, 2 runs) led off the top of the seventh with a triple and score on a single by Ryan Weiss for extra cushion. Mickey Ferrence got the start for Nanticoke. The lefty went five innings, giving up nine hits and four earned runs. Nanticokes other two hits were by Zach Kollar and Christian Pack.

THE T.L. EXPRESS


The leading home run hitter in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders lineup didnt need much more than a measly single to secure victory. But when Dan Johnson couldnt manage that, instead taking a called third strike to end the ninth inning, the RailRiders headed for extra innings tied with Syracuse at 6 on Friday night.Johnsons strikeout left teammate J.R. Murphy stranded at third base, just 90 feet away from ending it in regulation. The game Friday night was suspended due to rain as the 12th inning was to begin. It will be made up at a later date. RailRiders at the plate: With his fourth-inning triple, Brent Lillibridge extended his hitting streak to 13 games, a season-high for the RailRiders and the longest active spree in the International League. Fernando Martinez delivered the teams first run with a single, then tied the game by slicing an oppositefield homer into the left field bullpen in the seventh inning. Corey Patterson had two hits in his first two trips to the plate, then rocketed a two-run double to fuel a four-run sixth inning that got the RailRiders within a run. J.R. Murphy and Thomas Neal both singled twice. RailRiders on the mound: Starter David Huff found the going rough, surrendering six runs and 11 hits over 5 1/3 innings. Jim Miller followed him with a fine job, stranding two runners in scoring position in the sixth inning and striking out two in 2 2/3 scoreless innings. Mike Zagurski worked a perfect ninth, striking out the final two in the inning. Big blow: Patterson had three hits on the night, but none bigger than his twoout, two-run double in the bottom of the sixth inning. The shot carried over the head of right fielder Chris Rahl, brought home Randy Ruiz and David Adams and gave the RailRiders life while pulling them within 6-4. Defensive play: Testing the arm of Syracuse outfielder Tyler Moore while trailing by four runs turned out to be a bad idea. But the RailRiders tried it in the fifth inning, when David Adams tried to score from second base on Thomas Neals sharp single to left field. Moore gloved the grounder and came up gunning, with a near-perfect one-hop throw to the plate that easily nailed Adams. Riding the Rails: Pitcher Graham Stoneburner was activated from the disabled list and sent to Double-A Trenton. In 12 games and 10 starts with the RailRiders, Stoneburner is 3-4 with a 4.84 ERA. Stoneburner has also made four appearances for Trenton between April and June. Attendance: 8,180 Todays Game: The RailRiders travel to Buffalo for the weekend and open a three-game series with a doubleheader beginning at 6:05 p.m. today. Todays Probables: RailRiders righthander Chris Bootcheck (8-2, 3.59 ERA) will work the first game against Buffalos righthander Dave Bush (8-6, 3.99 ERA). The RailRiders havent yet decided on a pitcher to face Buffalo righthander Claudio Vargas (5-6, 5.51 ERA) in the second game. On Deck: The RailRiders conclude their series in Buffalo at 1:05 p.m. Sunday. Their next home game will be July 23 at PNC Field. On The Radio: All games can be heard on WYCK 1340-AM, 1400-AM and 100.7-FM. How They Scored SYRACUSE SECOND: Corey Brown drew a one-out walk, stole second and continued to third base when the throw sailed into center field. Josh Johnson tagged a two-out triple off the glove of an outstretched Fernando Martinez in right field, bringing Brown home. Jhonatan Salano then rocketed a double against the center field wall, scoring Johnson. SYRACUSE 2-0. RAILRIDERS FOURTH: Brent Lillibridge smoked a triple into the right-center field gap, then scored when Martinez sneaked a shot past first baseman Chris Marrero for a single. SYRACUSE 2-1. SYRACUSE FIFTH: Tyler Moore and Marrero drilled back-to-back doubles to open the inning with a run. Jeff Kobernus drew a one-out walk and Johnson followed with a single to center field, sending Marrero home and Kobernus to third base. Kobernus jogged home on Solanos long sacrifice fly to center field. SYRACUSE 5-1. SYRACUSE SIXTH: Chris Rahl beat out a high chopper to third base for an infield single, then stole second base. One out later, Moore roped a single to center field as Rahl raced home. SYRACUSE 6-1. RAILRIDERS SIXTH: J.R. Murphy grounded a single to left field. He moved to second base when Martinez grounded out and scored on a single to left field by Randy Ruiz. With two outs, David Adams drew a walk. Corey Patterson slammed a double over the head of right fielder Rahl, scoring both Ruiz and Adams. Thomas Neal followed with a run-scoring single to right field, bringing Patterson across the plate. SYRACUSE 6-5. RAILRIDERS SEVENTH: Martinez sliced an opposite-field solo homer into the left field bullpen. RAILRIDERS 6, SYRACUSE 6.

Invasive species found After confirming the presence of the invasive aquatic algae known as didymo, or rock snot, in Pine Creek, Lycoming County, anglers and boaters are reminded that cleaning their gear is the easiest, most effective means of preventing its spread to other waters. Our biologists have not seen any evidence of a full bloom of didymo in the creek or nearby waterways, Department of Environmental Protection acting secretary Chris Abruzzo said. This algae does not present a public health risk, but there is an ecological concern in terms of its future potential impact on the health of the waterway. In late June, DEP biologists were conducting routine stream monitoring in Pine Creek upstream of Waterville in the vicinity of the Hamilton Bottom Canoe Access Area, a popular recreational destination. Laboratory analysis of a sample collected using an algal net detected the presence of didymo in the form of microscopic diatoms, a finding confirmed by the National Academy of Sciences. The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission continued to urge anglers and boaters to take steps to prevent the spread of the algae. We may not be able to eliminate didymo from an infected waterway, but there are easy steps we can take to slow its spread and to prevent it from spreading to other waters, PFBC executive director John Arway said. Didymo cells can easily be carried downstream and can be picked up by any items which come in contact with the infected water, including fishing tackle, waders, and boats and trailers. We urge anglers and boaters to clean your gear before leaving a water body and entering another one. The discovery of the algae in a popular recreational area potentially increases the risk of its movement to other waters in Pennsylvania. Flowing through the heart of Tiadaghton State Forest, Pine Creek and its parallel trail are increasingly popular with anglers, boaters, hikers and other Pennsylvania residents and visitors, Department of Conservation and Natural Resources acting secretary Ellen Ferretti said. The discovery of didymo has no immediate impact to the visitor experience on or along Pine Creek, but we ask all to remain vigilant in an effort to protect this invaluable waterway and other streams and rivers, Ferretti said. Prior to detecting didymo in Pine Creek, the alga was found in the Youghiogheny River watershed in Fayette County, in the West Branch and main stem of the Delaware River, and in Dyberry Creek in Wayne County. The PFBC recommends that anglers allow exposed equipment to completely dry before entering new waters. After equipment is dry to the touch, allow it to dry another 48 hours, the commission suggests. Thick and dense material, such as life jackets and felt-soled wading gear, will hold moisture longer, take longer to dry, and can be more difficult to clean. Soaking equipment in hot water containing dishwashing detergent (two cups of detergent for every two and a half gallons of water) for 20 minutes or more also will kill didymo and some other aquatic invasive species. Cleaning boats and equipment with hot water (maintained at 140 degrees Fahrenheit) by pressure washing or soaking is another effective method. If hot water is not available, a commercial hot water car wash also makes a good location to wash boats, motors and trailers. At the other end of the temperature range, freezing items solid for at least 24 hours is effective. If cleaning, drying or freezing is not practical, please restrict the equipments use to a single waterway. Didymo is not a public health hazard, but it can cause ecological damage by smothering other organisms which also live on the riverbed and support the food web for the resident fish community. The algae, whose scientific name is Didymosphenia geminata, has been called rock snot because of its appearance. When squeezed nearly dry, the algae, generally tan to beige in color, actually has the feel of moist cotton or wool. For more details on how to stop the spread of didymo, visit www. fishandboat.com/water/habitat/ans/ didymo/faq_didymo.htm. For more information on how to clean your gear, visit fishandboat.com/ cleanyourgear.htm.

Make time for safety


The instructor pointed toward a deer target in the woods and asked if I would take the shot. I said I would, but I shouldve said no. Behind the target was a uorescent orange ribbon tied to a tree. I was 12, and gured the ribbon shouldnt preclude me from taking a shot at a deer. But the instructor taught me a lesson that has stuck with me ever since. If you see orange in the woods while hunting, always assume its another hunter, he said, motioning to the deer target. This is a shot you should pass up. The lesson was learned while I attendtom ed a Hunter-Trapper Venesky Education course before I got my rst Outdoors hunting license years Columnist ago.

Rule violation costs teen shot at billfish grand slam


TIM STEVENS
The News & Observer (Raleigh, N.C.)

RALEIGH, N.C. Will Kilpatrick caught a blue marlin, a white marlin and a sailsh in the same day, but his accomplishment wont be approved by the International Game Fish Association for inclusion in its all-time list of billsh grand slams. Kilpatricks catch would have been the third ofcial North Carolina billsh grand slam. Catches must adhere to IGFA rules to be recognized and Kilpatrick, who was making his rst deep sea shing trip, violated one of most basic requirements when he received assis-

tance with his blue marlin catch. A grand slam consists of catching three different species of billsh on the same day. The 13-yearold eighth grader at Apex Middle School caught a blue marlin that was estimated to weigh between 200 and 250 pounds, a white marlin estimated at 60 to 80 pounds and a sailsh that weighed an estimated 40-60 pounds. All of the sh were released. When the blue marlin hit, Will went to the ghting chair and the rst mate handed him the rod. That is a violation of the IGFA rules, said Will Kirkpatricks father, Mike Kirkpatrick, who learned of the rule while lling out the record application forms. He conrmed the interpreta-

tion of the rules with IGFA rules administrator Jack Vitek last week No one else can touch the rod, reel or line once the sh bites. We didnt know. They were just out shing. We knew it was a grand slam, but we didnt know there were so many rules. The IGFA rule is clear that the mate handing the rod to the Kilpatrick was a violation. Catches are disqualied by, The act of persons other than the angler in touching any part of the rod, reel, or line either bodily or with any device, from the time a sh strikes or takes the bait or lure, until the sh is either landed or released Kilpatrick was making his rst

deep sea shing trip with George Powell of Virginia Beach, Va. Not receiving the ofcial recognition doesnt take away any of his joy, Will Kilpatrick said. Not one bit, he said. I understand the rule now. He didnt have the rod but two seconds, but he set the hook. But it doesnt matter to me if it is a record or not. Mike Kilpatrick said the error was due to a lack of shing experience. I wasnt there and Ive never been deep sea shing. It was Wills rst trip, Mike Kilpatrick said. We didnt mean to deceive anyone or do anything wrong. We just dont know a lot about shing.

about a career. I came into this having no idea what I want to do. I like to spend time outdoors and Im learning about the things I enjoy here, he said. The camp really helps me narrow down a career path and also helps in choosing a college to follow that path. While hands-on career experience is the focus of the camp, there is also plenty of time for fun. The students sh in Lake Frances, swim in a secluded cove at Beltzville Lake and camp for two nights in Hickory Run State Park. The camp does have a

track record of success. Madl said some former students have gone on to work with DCNR as environmental education specialists and even as a park ranger at Presque Isle State Park in Erie. Others have gone on to work for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Our goal with this is to have them come work for DCNR or another conservation organization, Madl said. At the conclusion they all receive a career packet and are assigned a mentor to check in with them and offer any help they need in choosing a career.

From there, enter your name, email address and choose from among categories of emails youd like to receive. The latest hunting news and other helpful reminders will begin showing up in your inbox. Samantha Pedder, outreach coordinator for the Pennsylvania Game Commission, said subscribing to emails decreases the chance hunters will let important dates pass them by. Hunters have some of the busiest schedules imaginable, and when youre crunched for time, even important things have a way of slipping your mind, Pedder said. An email subscription is a great way to keep important issues from falling off a hunters radar. Those who sign up can subscribe to Game Commission emails in any or all of four categories: Resources for Educators, Hunting Seasons and Information, News Releases, and Watchable Wildlife.

EAST TROY, Wis. A certain satisfaction comes from breaking clay pigeons at the shooting range. Millions of shooters in America, many of them hunters, enjoy the challenge of trap, skeet, sporting clay and ve-stand each year. These same shooters typically derive less fulllment from accurately estimating distances. Or knowing their shotgun patterns with their normal hunting load at different distances. But all three aspects of shotgunning are critical to becoming a successful waterfowl hunter. And whats more, regular practice of a variety of skills, including distance estimation and target shooting with hunting loads, will help produce better and more ethical hunters. These are among the tenets of Wingshooting for Migratory Birds, a pilot program being rolled out this year in Wisconsin by the Department of Natural Resources. The program is designed to improve shooting, improve distance estimation, increase awareness of effective shooting ranges and assist with selection of shotgun choke and ammunition for hunting situations. Theres a lot that goes into being a successful waterfowl hunter, said Tim Lizotte, DNR wildlife supervisor from Waukesha. This course provides a wide variety of instruction to help. Lizotte and DNR conservation warden Doug Zeihen conducted a twoday instructional class for the program in late June at Triangle Sportsmens Club in East Troy.

I attended the class along with 13 others, including representatives of Delta Waterfowl, Ducks Unlimited, Green Bay Duck Hunters Association, Triangle and the Wisconsin Waterfowl Association. Each group has pledged to conduct two Wingshooting for Migratory Birds clinics in Wisconsin over the next two years. The two-year pilot program is being funded by $50,000 in grants from the Pittman-Robertson Act, an excise tax on sales of rearms, ammunition and hunting equipment. The June class was to train the trainers, people who will hold the wingshooting clinic through their clubs or organizations. The organizations conducting the clinics will borrow a DNR trailer lled with equipment, including clay pigeon throwers, patterning boards, waterfowl decoys and eye and ear protection. The Wisconsin program is based on one used by the Missouri Department of Conservation. It includes skills assessments, shotgun patterning, ammunition selection and game recovery techniques. One of the primary faults of waterfowl hunters is a tendency to shoot at targets beyond their effective range, Zeihen said. According to a study cited in the course, hunters on average took their rst shot at ducks at 53 yards. Goose hunters took their rst shot at 67 yards. Such a habit can result in wounded, unrecovered birds. Studies by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service from 1965 to 2001 show that duck hunters report a wounding loss rate of about 17 percent, while

IF MOST PEOPLE are shooting at ducks at 50 but cant reliably hit a target at 30, you know the outcome

Doug Zeihen, Game Warden

trained observers put the gure closer to 30 percent for ducks and 36 percent for geese. The course helps hunters dene their abilities. Our rst shooting test was on a crossing target at 20 yards. Participants are required to hit at least six of eight to successfully complete the test. Eleven of the 14 in our class were successful at 20 yards. However, at 30 yards only one person passed the test. And that shooter was only able to hit three of eight at 40 yards. If most people are shooting at ducks at 50 but cant reliably hit a target at 30, you know the outcome, Zeihen said. Next we tested our ability to estimate distance. Eight waterfowl decoys were arrayed in a eld at the club. Standing in the center, we were asked to write down the distance to each. We repeated another common problem underestimating distance. You gave me a pencil that lies, said Matt Ernst of Green Bay Duck Hunters Association, a smile creasing his face. The decoys had been placed from 12 to 50 yards away. Our answers showed we thought they were 5 percent to 25 percent closer. Part of becoming a pro-

cient shooter is understanding the shot pattern. After pellets emerge from a shotgun barrel, they are arranged in a conical shape. The leading edge of the cone is smallest in diameter. And its important for waterfowl hunters to know steel shot forms a narrower, shorter cone than lead shot. The course recommends hunters practice at the range with the type of shell and load they plan to hunt with. Its common sense, Lizotte said. Now I practice exclusively with my hunting loads. The course manual listed three basic techniques for shooting a shotgun: snap shooting, sustained lead and swing-through method. In his book Shotgunning, the Art and the Science, Bob Brister states, The easiest way to hit ying game is to swing the barrel through the bird as if to paint it out of the sky. This swing-through method forms the core of the shooting technique taught in the class. Shooting instructor Steve Knoll of Waukesha conducted a session on gun t, mounting and shooting technique. He related shotgun shooting to golf and baseball. When you swing, you dont look at the club or

bat, Knoll said. You look at your target. The course also utilizes Tom Rosters 2013 Nontoxic Shot Lethality Table to assist in selection of choke, shell type and pellet size. Roster, an internationally acclaimed wingshooter, prefers to hunt ducks with an improved cylinder choke and No. 4 steel shot. We then checked the pattern produced by our guns on a board covered with paper. We counted the number of pellets in a 30-inch diameter circle to guide choke and load selection for typical hunting conditions. A nationwide poll conducted in 2006 by Responsive Management found 78 percent of Americans approved of legal hunting. To maintain high levels of support, hunters must be ethical and law abiding. Lizotte said he hoped activities from the class especially target shooting with nontoxic shot and distance estimation would become an annual tradition for waterfowl hunters. Sort of like a rie sight-in before deer season, it would be great to see duck and goose hunters turn out in large numbers and practice some of these factors that are key to successful waterfowl hunting, Lizotte said. Wingshooting for Migratory Birds courses will be advertised by the sponsor groups; several are likely to be held in August. Each is expected to take six to eight hours.

Make the robocalls stop, please


Ive heard from one angry senior after another who wants the medicalalert scam robocalls to stop. The calls have become so pervasive that one medical-alert company placed fullpage ads in major newspapers warning seniors not to fall for the con. I wrote about this particularly annoying scam in early June, and Ive been taken aback by how many seniors are telling me theyve simply been deluged. Many times, the retirees said theyre hearing from someone named John. He keeps talking, wont shut up and will not let them talk. John is a very sophisticated but annoying recording. These are prerecorded calls that are cleverly done, said Will Maxson, a Federal Trade Commission lawyer and program manager of the commissions Do Not Call enforcement. The automated voice implies that a doctor or relative signed the consumer up for a medical-alert system. And its all free. Authorities said that, in some cases, after consumers press a button to accept the offer, they quickly receive another call asking for personal information, including credit card numbers. This might be con artists trying to get bank or credit card information or a Social Security number to use in ID theft. Or its a way to pressure seniors into paying for equipment or services. The Medical Alert System scam is in full swing in Michigan, according to the state attorney generals ofce, as well as in other states including Pennsylvania, New York, Texas, Wisconsin and Kentucky. Ruth Streeter, who lives in Virginia, told me by email that shes disrupted by them daily. And I do mean daily, she said. Its so annoying that MedicalAlert, which makes alert devices, took out full-page ads in late June in newspapers in Detroit, Cleveland, Miami and New York. Mark Leighton, CEO of MedicalAlerts parent ConnectAmerica, said his company is not making the calls. Absolutely not. He said his company has been receivSee ROBOCALL | 2D
The FTC announced tougher rules for robocalls in 2009. They are prohibited unless the telemarketer has obtained permission in writing from consumers who want to receive such calls. The penalties are up to $16,000 per call. Some calls are not covered by the Telemarketing Sales Rule, including messages about a childs school closing and calls from politicians. The FTC has taken 104 Do Not Call enforcement actions, and violators have paid more than $74 million in penalties. On June 21, the FTC expanded its case against deceptive robocalls from cardholder services and added defendants to a case the agency brought last year. The robocalls promised to lower credit card rates for consumers in exchange for some up-front fees that were nearly $1,600. The case is ongoing. SOURCE: Federal Trade Commission

Convenience stores grow more elaborate in contest for rushed shoppers


Lorraine Mirabella
The Baltimore Sun

Susquehanna Brewing Company co-owners Ed Maier, left, and Mark Nobile inspect kegs of beer in the cooler.

Call it the battle of fried chicken versus made-to-order hoagies, both served with a side of gasoline. Competition among convenience store chains has heated up as retailers vie to win over consumers by redening and expanding convenience. Chains such as 7-Eleven, Wawa and Royal Farms are rushing to build new stores, remodel existing ones, boost assortments of meals to go and, more often than not, sell gas out front. Maryland-based Royal Farms, a 151store chain in four states, opened a dozen new locations and rebuilt six last year. Known for its fried chicken, it is building nine new stores this year. The chain is bolstering its home front against the likes of a larger and rapidly expanding Wawa and a newly aggressive 7-Eleven. Wawa is opening close to 50 new stores this year in a six-state area, about a third more than last year. And 7-Eleven launched a national push into urban areas, with plans to open up to a dozen new stores a year in the Baltimore area alone. All three aim to serve time-crunched consumers, who are turning more and more to large-format convenience stores not just for milk and candy, but for a ll-up and dinner. People want more convenience, and it just continues to escalate, said Jeff Lenard, a spokesman for the National Association of Convenience Stores. The reason that youre seeing growth of convenience stores is people are continually redening convenience. It used to be all that meant was extended hours of operation, then it became about convenient locations. Today, its all of that plus offering a single spot to ll the tank, withdraw cash and grab a meal, Lenard said. The new convenience stores are seen as more than a last resort to grab breakfast, lunch or dinner, he said. Its gone from desperation to destination, Lenard said. More (stores) are in the food service business, and you know you can get a good meal. Youre seeing where people expect some of the See STORES | 2D

A toast to a fine first year

JENKINS TWP. A year after the rst drops of hoppy goodness owed from the lines at Susquehanna Brewing Company, the start up brewery has doubled its workforce and expanded its service territory vefold. In the rough and tumble and expensive to build and grow craft brewing world, Susquehanna has been able to nd success thanks to an innovative brewmaster, a trio of owners that had a background in beer distribution and a region with a history of beer drinking. Ed and Fred Maier and Mark Nobile had an idea and followed it through. Close to $10 million has gone in to the start up costs, but by this time next year the company that employs 14 will be protable, Nobile, 57, of Pittston, said. In its rst year, the company off South Main Street in Jenkins Township, has produced just shy of 5,000 barrels of beer. Each barrel contains 31 gallons. The owners said good and unique beer have allowed them to have an early success but they also credit distributors and bars that have agreed to carry their products for the ability to grow at a steady pace throughout the rst year. Expanding sales territory When the brewery opened the rst kegs were lled May 21, the rst bottles July 17 it only focused on seven counties in Northeastern Pennsylvania Carbon, Lackawanna, Luzerne, Monroe, Pike, Susquehanna, Wayne and Wyoming. Gradually the territory expanded, rst down toward Philadelphia then west toward Harrisburg, Lancaster

and Williamsport. Today the beer is found in 39 counties in Pennsylvania. Nobile points out that while they are enjoying the growth, its not something the company actively sought. We didnt seek out 39 counties. They came to us, he said. But Fred Maier, 35, of Dallas, said the majority is sold within 10 miles of its Jenkins Township headquarters. The backgrounds of the Maiers and Nobile is in beer, especially beer distribution. Nobiles grandfather, Mac Gargano, opened Wyoming Quality Beverage in West Wyoming in 1934, a year after Prohibition ended. He merged the company with Maiers Premium Brands in 2004 to form United Beverage. The relationships the men have made over the years with beer distributors has gone a long way to making inroads to having Susquehanna in coolers and on tap throughout the region. From Smokey Bones to Bar Louie, The Tipsy Turtle to Grotto Pizza, the beer has been on tap and available to drinkers throughout the Wyoming Valley. Basic beers and more With the basics, like a lager, Oktoberfest, an Indian Pale Ale and a stock ale, the company has understood what most beer drinkers want. But its not been shy about pushing the envelope with a black pilsner, a peach pumpkinberry ale and a southern rye India Pale Ale. Ed Maier, 63, of Lehman Township, is the great-great-grandson of Charles Stegmaier, who made his fortune brewing beer in WilkesBarre after founding the Baer and Stegmaier Brewing Co. with his

father-in-law, George Baer, in 1857. He said this area appreciates good beer and when the company was founded it brought in masterbrewer Jaime Jurado to develop those brews. Jurado, a Forty Fort resident and a Wilkes University graduate, helped build the brewing lines and developed the original four beers plus the four seasonal beers that were rolled out over the past year. He left the company July 1 to pursue other options saying that See BREWERY | 2D For a closer look at new brewmaster Guy Hagner, see Page 1A.

Stores
From page 1D places to possibly eat can be at a gas station. Royal Farms trades on its chicken and Western-cut fries, Wawa on its built-to-order hoagies. 7-Eleven has moved beyond Big Bite hot dogs with an expanded array of ready-to-eat foods. (But dont worry, the dogs are still on the rollers.) Were expanding and improving our brand, depending on where real estate is available and where it makes sense for us to expand our footprint, said Ed Stronski, Royal Farms marketing manager. The chain is building about 10 to 12 new stores a year, all of them offering gasoline on a busy road. The stores range in size from 4,000 square feet to 5,600 square feet. Its also remodeling older stores and improving its food service offerings. Its all with an eye toward staying ahead of the competition as Royal Farms goes head to head with drugstores, grocers, fast-food outlets, and coffee and doughnut shops, as well as other convenience stores such as Wawa. Fastgrowing Wawa operates 570 stores in Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, Pennsylvania and New Jersey and is moving into Florida. Were constantly looking for new sites and ways to serve communities were not serving, said Lori Bruce, a Wawa spokeswoman. Some newer Wawa stores feature the chains latest design with a larger kitchen area and emphasis on fresh food such as its made-to-order sub sandwiches and espresso-based drinks, Bruce said. The chain tries to differentiate itself, she said, with a variety of food offerings ranging from its hoagies and quesadillas to soups, salads and fruit. We think that our offerings really distinguish us in that retail set, Bruce said. In the past dozen years, the number of convenience stores nationwide jumped 25 percent to more than 149,000, including both single operators and chains, according to the convenience store association. That far exceeds the number of U.S. supermarkets, drugstores and dollar stores. An average of 1,100 customers a day walk through the doors of any given convenience store that also sells gas, according to the association. They spend less than four minutes on average from the time they leave their car to the time they return, Lenard said. But in that short amount of time, they spend money. Convenience stores $700 billion in sales last year edged past the total sales of restaurants and supermarkets and jumped well above drugstore sales, according to the association. Sales rose 2.2 percent in the stores and 2.9 percent at the gas pumps compared with 2011. Gasoline sales are increasingly important, helping to draw customers into the stores. Just a few decades ago, gas stations sold most of the nations gas. Now convenience stores sell 80 percent of all fuel sold in the United States. Royal Farms, which opened its first store in 1959 in Baltimore selling milk, is building nine stores this year. CEO John Kemp recently told CSP TV, an online news outlet for convenience store retailers, that the chains growth strategy is to pretty much just plod along. Wed like to build anywhere from six to 10 stores a year. Some years weve done less and some years, probably the last two years, weve probably done a little more. Royal Farms newest store format offers fuel, a car wash and carry-out food that includes deli sandwiches and an assortment of beverages such as iced tea, lemonade and milkshakes in addition to the signature fried chicken. The chicken program has been around many, many years, and it seems to keep on growing year after year, Kemp told CSP TV. Kemp was not available for an interview last week. 7-Eleven has a new rapid expansion strategy that targets key growth areas of New York City, Washington, Baltimore, central and southern Florida, Chicago and the West Coast, said Margaret Chabris, a spokeswoman. Chabris said 7-Eleven began positioning itself for growth in the late 2000s when real estate values fell. The company was well-positioned financially to build new stores as other retailers pulled back on growth plans. Convenience chains also have benefited by entering urban markets left under-served by supermarkets, Mackler said. And residents have embraced them. In some neighborhoods where there is a food desert, they use 7-Eleven and pharmacies as their grocery store, he said. Some shoppers are willing to pay the higher prices on staples such as milk and cereal, preferring to go to niche grocers such as Trader Joes for specialty items. People are paying up, Mackler said. Time and convenience are the most valuable commodities people have today.

From page 1D there wasnt much else he could do at Susquehanna until it was ready for another major expansion. New brewmaster Guy Hagner, of Mountain Top, has been with the company since Jan. 1, 2012, and is already developing new craft brews to roll out. Maier said that while hes very happy with our rst year, we certainly minimally met our expectations. He said slow growth is the course to stay on and the next step will be new tanks and fermenters to be able to increase capacity. Also being discussed is automation on the bottling line. Right now its all hand done, said Ed Maier. Fred Maier, Eds son, said thanks to Jurado and now Hagner, we feel weve got the building blocks and the foundation laid. Its such a cool place, Hagner said. They are such tremendous people to work for. I only see bigger and brighter things ahead for this place.

Robocall
From page 1D ing about 500 calls a week since early April from upset customers and seniors. Consumers demanded to know why the company was calling them. Some people called crying, saying, I just gave out my credit card number, Leighton said. Leighton said his company markets its product on TV and in print ads and through the CVS Pharmacy, not phone calls. The full-page ads include tips such as: NEVER sign blank Medicare insurance forms and Be suspect of ANY unrequested telephone solicitation claiming to be afliated with Medicare, MedicalAlert, ConnectAmerica or any medical-alarm brand. Its one thing to be warned about a potential scam. But seniors asked: How do you stop the calls? I wish I had some good news for you. I wish I could say: Psst, heres the number to call, and these regulators will put a stop to the crazies once and for all. Federal and state regulators say that, for now, automated robocalling technology and the anonymity it can provide gives

criminals the upper hand. Just dont cooperate; hang up. We all get recorded calls at some point _ pitches for extended automobile warranties, chances to lower your electric bill. Remember Rachel at cardholder services? That was a popular robocall several months ago. Some strategies do exist for ghting back. But Ill warn you: The calls wont stop immediately, and it could be some time before regulators are able to get results. Regulators just dont have a quick x here. Try not to answer, if you can screen the calls using caller ID. If you do answer, never attempt to communicate. Yes, its tempting to tell that annoying guy who keeps calling to go soak his head in a dirty toilet, as a dear high school friend of mine used to say. But dont do it. Experts said some robocalls are lead generators, meaning that the caller is paid to nd out whether the number is live. Pressing a button could generate more calls. And, yes, of course, you can complain. But again, it wont stop the calls from interrupting a favorite show.

No, its not right. But its reality right now. If you think robocalls are out of control, youre correct. The Federal Trade Commission said consumers are getting more complaints than ever because companies now can tap into the Internet to send out thousands of phone calls every minute at an incredibly low cost. The FTC said it has stopped billions of robocalls in the past few years regarding fraudulent credit card services, home security and auto warranty protection. But the cases are challenging. Robocallers can fake the caller ID information that you see on your phone. The telemarketer may even make it seem like this is a call from your bank or other legitimate business. Leighton said his company suspects that the calls are from some offshore outts and hard for regulators to stop. I think there is action being taken, but I dont think its an overnight process to be able to stop these people, he said. The calls could be coming from overseas and hard to detect because Internet technology enables callers to hide

their location. Maxson said robocalls are an enforcement priority for the commission, and complaints can help detect patterns. A consumer can write down the number that appears on the caller ID and report it, he said. Yes, many of those numbers show local area codes and no one answers if you call back. But the FTC has ways to trace some spoofed calls if a large number of complaints are reported, Maxson said. We can group complaints together to gure out who is causing the most harm. Maxson said signing up for the Do Not Call list also can help the FTC in enforcement actions, too. But many consumers who complained about the medical-alert scam told me theyre already on the Do Not Call list. These robo-guys do not care, which is why they really, really should get caught. Jean Pugliese, 74, of Shelby Township, Mich., said she had been getting the medical-alert calls maybe two or three times a day at one point. Its kind of sad where seniors are being targeted, she said. Pugliese said shes sharp

enough to know that relatives would have told her if they had bought her a medical-alert system. And she isnt answering the phone anymore, so it seems like the calls have calmed down. But she worries about older seniors or those who face challenging illnesses. Cynthia LeBar Kabbe, who lives in Connecticut, said she has received the medical-alert calls, as well as some calls about a computer virus and some FBI alert about break-ins in her neighborhood. In her view, the calls are most problematic for people who are 80 or older and probably more trusting than the general population. Some seniors may be more likely to think the call is legitimate. For me, it is exasperating to receive the same calls over and over, she said. Robocalls can sound legitimate. So be careful. What do you do? Ignore the phone? Maybe. Ask friends and family to ring once and then hang up and call again? Whats clear is that John just does not care and will keep calling and calling until the federal regulators get a better handle on this one. Maybe we could set John up

on a date with Rachel.


Susan Tompor is the personal finance columnist for the Detroit Free Press.

WHAT TO DO:
What to do if you get a robocall: _Hang up. Or look at your caller ID and dont answer. _If you answer, do not press 1 or 2 or any button on the keypad to speak with someone or to be taken off the calling list. It could generate more calls. _Never attempt to communicate with an operator. Just hang up. What to do to stop them from calling ever again: _File a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission, at http://www. ftccomplaintassistant.gov or by calling 877-382-4357. Its the complaints that consumers file with us that are the lifeblood (of) our enforcement efforts, said Will Maxson, an enforcement lawyer with the FTC. _Sign up for the Do Not Call list at http://www.donotcall.gov or 888-382-1222. Scammers also have been making phone calls claiming to represent the National Do Not Call Registry. So do not fall for that scam, either. Plenty of people on the list keep getting calls for the medical alerts. But the FTC said being on the list can still aid enforcement actions. SOURCE: Federal Trade Commission

JULY HIGH? Summer hasnt historically been a vacation for stock investors, and this years has seen another rough start. The Standard & Poors 500 index fell 1.5 percent in June for its first monthly loss since October. That fits with history: Since 1945, June has been the fourth-worst month of the year for the S&P 500, with a nearly break-even average performance. August has historically been the third-worst month for the index, 4.7 and September has been the worst. But July has been an exception, offering some summertime relief. Its average climb of 0.9 percent beats the average gain of 0.7 percent for the index across all 12 months, according to S&P Capital IQ. Average monthly price change of the S&P 500, since 1945

STRONG START The last time the stock market had this strong a January-throughJune run, Seinfeld was still making new episodes. The S&P 500 rose 12.6 percent in the first half of 2013, its best first-half of a year since a 16.8 percent climb in 1998. Although it may be worrisome for the market to pack a years worth of gains into six months, it doesnt mean the index will necessarily run out of gas. In 1998, the S&P 500 rose another 7.2 percent from July through December. Thats similar to other times that the index has gained more than 10 percent in the first half of a year: In the 20 times that its happened since 1945, the index has gained an average of 7.5 percent in the second half of the year.

SAME LANGUAGE How much does oil cost? Depending on where you are, the answer is different. In New York, traders talk about West Texas Intermediate crude, which is different from the Brent crude that is traded in London. The prices can diverge sharply. Earlier this year, the U.S. price was more than $20 per barrel cheaper because of higher supply levels at U.S. distribution points. But the difference has narrowed in recent weeks. On Monday, it was just $5. Much of that is due to recent flooding in Canada, which has cut off some supplies to the U.S., Barclays Research says.

Bob Smith
Who he is: Portfolio manager of the T. Rowe Price International Stock fund What he suggests: Dont give up on international markets just yet.

Emerging markets have been an albatross this year for Bob Smith, portfolio manager of the T. Rowe Price International Stock fund. Markets from China to Brazil have slumped, which has weighed on the returns of the fund. At the same time, the U.S. market has been on a tear. Even so, Smith says there are still opportunities in overseas markets for long-term investors. With the U.S. market doing so well this year, why invest overseas? What you would like to do as an investor is buy good companies, and you want to do that when their prices are lower. Youre less interested when their prices are high. Outside of the U.S. you have companies that have great growth prospects. European companies have a little bit more exposure to growth in emerging markets than you probably get with U.S. companies. And in some of the emerging markets you have better growth. At the moment prices are a lot cheaper in most emerging market than they are in the U.S. Is the emerging market story still intact? Yes, I think it is. Emerging markets were darling stocks. The prices on emerging stocks were at and above those of developed markets, and profit margins were relatively high. Policy by governments was, lets say neutral to favorable, for companies. Now youre in a period where policy has been somewhat less favorable. Profit margins have normalized and valuations have come down a lot. Emerging markets stocks are cheaper than developed stocks but now everybody hates them. If you own the right companies --- and you find companies that can make it through this more challenging period --- then, on a five-year basis, youre better to try and buy than you are to try to pay up for more sure earnings, in markets that the market is less worried about. WPP, a London-based advertising company, is the largest holding out of the 120 stocks in your portfolio. Why? Theyre gaining share in advertising, because of their exposure to emerging markets and digital. The stock is still pretty cheap. We bought it when the market went down in 2009 and the stock really got hit because people thought earnings were going to collapse. But they didnt collapse they held together ok. It has recovered very slowly and we like how they run the business, so its been a long-term holding. Whats your favorite country to invest in? We have to have some kind of a view on whats happening with an economy and what impact that will have on companies. Within Europe is really where were finding the companies. Our overweight in Brazil, which has been wrong, has been driven by the fact that we like companies there but we also had a view on the economy. We thought it would be better than it has been. Interviewed by Steve Rothwell. Answers edited for content and clarity.

Investors are willing to pay more for stocks. The Standard & Poors 500 index is in record territory and during its climb investors have paid increasingly higher prices for stocks relative to their earnings. A stocks price-earnings ratio is a gauge of whether the stock is cheap or expensive. High P/E ratios signal a stock is expensive, and the P/E ratio of the S&P 500 is at its highest level in three years. Stocks in the index trade at 15.4 times their earnings per share over the last 12 months, according to FactSet. That means investors are paying $15.40 for each dollar of earnings. That's up from $13 a year ago. A stocks price generally rises at a similar rate to the companys earnings over the long-term. But sometimes they fall out of sync. As of the end of the first quarter, the S&P 500 had climbed 11 percent over the prior 12 months, while earnings per share for the index rose 6 percent. Part of the reason is that improvements in the housing market and other areas of the economy helped make investors more optimistic about a lasting recovery. In turn, they have become comfortable paying a higher price-earnings ratio, analysts say. The market has sustained a long-lasting rise in its P/E ratio before, like in the 1980s. The S&P 500 traded at a P/E of just 10 in 1984, as investors worried that high inflation from earlier in the decade would return. But the markets P/E rose as high as 17 in 1986 as confidence that inflation was under control increased. That outlook helped the S&P 500 rise 26.3 percent in 1985 and 14.6 percent in 1986.

Companies keep sending bigger checks to their investors. Dividend payments made by companies in the Standard & Poors 500 index were 13.9 percent higher Stock in the first six months of the year than in the Screener year-ago period, according to S&P Dow Jones Indices. That puts the index on track for its third straight year of dividend growth above 10 percent. The longest such streak is four years. It happened from 2004 through 2007 and from 1947 through 1950. This screen shows the companies in the S&P 500 that have at least doubled their dividends so far this year. The biggest rise came from Capital One Financial, which increased its quarterly dividend in May to 30 cents from 5 cents. Its one of several financial companies to significantly increase its dividend, including Zions Bancorp and Regions Financial.

Ask the Fool

Ive got $500 available per month. Should I pay down my mortgage faster with it, or invest it in a stock market index fund? C.N., Sacramento, Calif. Think of it this way: If your mortgage interest rate is 5 percent, then any extra principal you pay off will save you 5 percent in interest payments which is like earning a 5 percent return. Meanwhile, if you hope to earn the markets long-term average annual return of roughly 10 percent in stocks, then thats clearly more compelling than the 5 percent. Remember, though, that the 5 percent is much more of a sure thing than the 10 percent. Paying off your mortgage early is often worthwhile. Thats especially true if youre nearing retirement, as its best not to be making mortgage payments in retirement. *** What does it mean if a stock is trading below cash? L.R., Kankakee, Ill. It refers to a company that has more cash in its coffers than its entire market capitalization. In other words, it has more cash per share than its share price and is therefore very enticing to many investors, making them think it cant help but be a bargain. But hold on. The money is probably being spent, and it might not be there for long. Many companies in trouble have a high burn rate, meaning that significantly more money is going out than is coming in. As the folks at investopedia.com have explained, Even a palace isnt worth much if its on fire. Still, it can be well worth looking for healthy, growing companies with lots of cash and relatively low prices. They just dont need to be trading below cash.

Dealing With Market Drops


The stock market can be volatile, and thats unsettling to some. This past June, the S&P 500 shed about 3.5 percent in a single week, while the Dow fell more than 400 points, or 2.8 percent. Such corrections are often sudden and can freak out some investors, leading them to sell in a panic. Selling on market dips is usually a bad idea, though. Not only do you lock in a loss, but you also pass up good buying opportunities. Savvy investors know to expect occasional market downturns, because theyre not that rare. Heres what to do when the market slumps: Dont panic. The market has always recovered, eventually reaching new highs. It will likely recover this time, too. Ideally, your investment horizon is years away, and corrections are often over and gone in a few weeks. Unless your reason

Q A

for owning a stock has fundamentally changed, it usually makes little sense to sell just because the overall market and the stock headed south. Remember that recoveries sometimes happen more quickly than the correction did and even during a correction, prices will bounce up and down. Look for buying opportunities. It goes against our nature to plow more money into the market when things are looking bad, but for a buyer, a correction means that stocks are on sale. So take a look at your favorite stocks (or mutual funds) and see whether you can grab some bargains. Sure, they might go lower but even if you dont get the lowest price, you can still set yourself up for good longterm gains. If all else fails, just go to the beach. Seriously: If youre fully invested in healthy and growing companies, theres really no need to do anything. If you built your portfolio using sound investment principles, those principles are still sound, even if Mr. Market is going through a rough patch.

My Dumbest Investment

The Motley Fool Take

No Silver Lining
Decades ago, I took a clients advice to buy silver. Lots of people were buying it, and the price had risen to $25 per ounce. I bought $1,500 worth. Then, in 1980, as you might remember, silver took a dive, and I managed to sell my holdings for about $700. The problem was that two brothers, the Hunts, had been buying up much of the worlds silver, aiming to corner the market and driving up its value. But they did so by borrowing a lot of money, and when they stumbled, the price of silver crashed hard. I learned the hard way how volatile commodities can be. J.M., online The Fool Responds: People sometimes add gold or silver to their portfolios as extra diversification and protection. But precious metals and other commodities can be risky and volatile, too. Between late 1979 and early 1980, during the Hunt frenzy, the price of silver soared from less than $10 per ounce to more than $50. Recently, it has been valued around $19 per ounce. Meanwhile, gold has fallen some 33 percent from a high in October. Do you have an embarrassing lesson learned the hard way?

Watching Weight Watchers


Bad habits are hard to change, making stock in Weight Watchers (NYSE: WTW) appealing. In an industry dominated by snake-oil remedies, quick fixes and faddish diets, Weight Watchers clinically proven, decades-old approach to weight loss management and behavior modification stands apart. On the heels of recent marketing missteps, an ill-timed share repurchase (that ballooned its debt burdens), and broader concerns over the health of its online and meetings businesses, Weight Watchers shares have shed a few pounds roughly 25 percent off 52-week highs, and 40 percent from all-time highs set two years ago. The result: a capital-light business with sustainable competitive advantages, a history of superior returns on capital and excellent cash generation sports a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio near 10. The stock market has priced Weight Watchers as a business in decline, but its target market is only getting, er, larger. To wit: According to the World Health Organization, worldwide obesity has almost doubled since 1980, and worldwide, more than a billion adults are considered overweight. Risks include competition, weightloss drugs and management missteps, but the recent low price seems to have factored those in. The market is likely to add meat to these shares bones.

Study: Youthsattitudes shift in Great Recession


CHICAGO Drew Miller clearly remembers the day his father was laid off. Miller, now 25, was a freshman at an Ohio college, full of hope and ready to take on the world. But here was this red ag a big wake-up call, he says. The prosperous years of childhood were over, and his future was likely to be bumpier than hed expected. Across the country, others of Millers generation heard that same wake-up call as the Great Recession set in. But would it change them? And would the impact last? The full effect wont be known for a while, of course. But a new analysis of a longterm survey of high school students provides an early glimpse at ways their attitudes shifted in the rst years of this most recent economic downturn. Among the ndings: Young people showed signs of being more interested in conserving resources and a bit more concerned about their fellow human beings. Compared with youths who were surveyed a few years before the recession hit, more of the Great Recession group also was less interested in bigticket items such as vacation homes and new cars though they still placed more importance on them than young people who were surveyed in the latter half of the 1970s, an era with its own economic challenges. Either way, it appears this latest recession has caused a lot of young people to stop in their tracks and think about whats important in life, says Jean Twenge, a psychology professor at San Diego State University who co-authored the study with researchers from UCLA. The analysis, released Thursday, is published in the online edition of the journal Social Psychological and Personality Science. Its data comes from

Monitoring the Future, an annual survey of young people that began in the mid-1970s. The authors of the study compared responses of high school seniors from three time periods 1976-1978 and 20042006, as well as 2008-2010, the rst years of the Great Recession. They found that at the beginning of this latest recession, more of the 12th-graders were willing to use a bicycle or mass transit instead of driving 36 percent in 2008-2010, compared with 28 percent in the mid-2000s. However, that was still markedly lower than the 49 percent of respondents in the 1970s group who said the same. There were similar patterns

for other responses, such as those who said they: Make an effort to turn heat down to save energy: 78 percent (1976-1978); 55 percent (2004-2006); and 63 percent (2008-2010). Want a job directly helpful to others: 50 percent (1976-1978); 44 percent (2004-2006); and 47 percent (2008-2010). Would eat differently to help the starving: 70 percent (1976-1978); 58 percent (2004-2006); and 61 percent (2008-2010). Psychologist Patricia Greeneld said the ndings t with other research shes done that shows that people become more community-minded, and less materialistic, when faced

with economic hardship. To me, its a silver lining, says Greeneld, another of the studys contributors, along with lead author Heejung Park, an advanced doctoral student in psychology at UCLA. Their analysis found that, of the three groups, the Great Recession group was still most likely to want jobs where they could make a signicant amount of money. But the authors say that may simply be attributable to the ever-rising cost of day-to-day expenses, from groceries to electric and gas bills. In comparison, they note that the Great Recession group also showed a bit less interest in luxury items than the stu-

dents who were surveyed in the mid-2000s. For instance, 41 percent of high school seniors questioned 2008-2010 said it was important to own a vacation home, compared with 46 percent in 2004-2006. Again, both percentages are higher than the 34 percent who said the same in 1976-1978. Tina Wells, CEO of Buzz Marketing Group, which tracks youth trends, says the analysis ts with what shes seen in her own work. Many young people, she says, are living in what she calls millennial purgatory, unemployed or under-employed, working in jobs below their qualications, and sometimes still living at home with their

parents. During the Great Recession the unemployment rate for 15- to 24-year-olds has risen above 20 percent more than double the overall rate. If youre 22 and trying to jump-start your life right now, its not so easy, Wells says. As a result, various 20-somethings have tempered their career expectations in different ways. Until the economy improves, Ive been opting for security over the perfect job, says Calvin Wagner, a 24-year-old accountant in suburban Cincinnati. As he bides his time, working for a small company with little chance for advancement, hes studying for the exam to become a certied public accountant. Like many of the survey respondents, Ashley Rousseau, a 25-year-old in Miami, says shes now more focused on a job that helps her community in some way than in landing a corner ofce. The recession made it even more clear that Im not going to nd job satisfaction from a high-paying career, says Rousseau, whos getting her MBA and works at the medical school at Florida International University, which she says improves the medical care in the community. Im proud to be part of that mission, she says. Miller, the 25-year-old whose dad was laid off, left Ohio when he couldnt nd work there in his eld, electrical engineering. He moved to Alexandria, Va., after nding a government contracting job. But he recently decided to take a chance on a new company thats using smart technology to help big corporations cut electrical usage for lighting their spaces. Though it meant taking a small pay cut, he says having a job that helps the environment was a huge motivator. It remains to be seen, however, how members of this generation will cope with this economic adversity.

home. The next day - a week ago this morning - Mark was out on another group ride on another pretty road in another corner of the place we call home when he died. Mark was 65, but he rode bicycles for a good distance several times a week and his death came as a world-shaking surprise to his co-workers, the close cycling community, his neighbors and family. Frankly, the specic medical reasons of how he died are not as important to me as the emptiness he leaves behind. Ive known Mark for 27 years - since I met my wife. Mark was a lawyer who worked for more than 30 years as a workmans compensation judge. He enjoyed hunting, ham radio, traveling and his family. He was thoughtful and concerned for others. Habitat For Humanity sponsors a 30-mile bike ride through the Back Mountain each May. When Mark realized a certain comfort facility was lacking at the rest area, he sponsored the Pelak potty. Personally, I will miss him because he was our good neighbor next door. Good, by the way, isnt necessarily quiet. When the Pelaks beagle Archie howled, Mark would answer with a howl. Sometimes Mark would howl to get Archie to howl. Hear that enough and it

becomes endearing. Mark often did garden work wearing a pith helmet. He and my wife Carole had a running joke about pruning the long run of privet hedge that separates our driveways. Mark and I would often see each other coming and going to work, taking the recycling to the curb on Sunday nights, the garbage Friday mornings. Wed rake leaves at the same time, shovel snow at the same time. All these things, the mundane tasks of life - the care of a home, the going to work, the helping of others, - are the fabric of a neighborhood and a community. Mark was just one person, but he brought others together. Marks enthusiasm and concern spread through interconnected lives in his work, his friends and family, through a cycling community that embraces the love of exercise and the outdoors. Just a few years ago on a Christmas morning my neighbor was on the street in front of our homes, exuberant with a new toy, a single speed bike. He rode it up the street and down the street, back and forth and around the block. He was simply happy. If he left us too soon, he left behind a good example. Do good work, take care of your family and get out there and embrace life. Ride on, Mark. Ride on.

The shovel gleams and the earth is ready to turn. Let the digging commence.

Affordable Care Act has its holes


Its 3:14 a.m. Im awake. Every night for the last six months, my eyes have opened just after 3. Its my personal witching hour when my demons come out of the closet and surround the bed whispering messages of doom. My husband sleeps on, oblivious. Ive developed some tricks to keep the creatures at bay. I count backward, I count my blessings, I recite what little poetry I know by heart. If I start listening to the goblins, thats it, Im up for the duration. What am I worried about? I have smart, healthy children, one college graduate and one in college. I have a house and a husband and a car. What I dont have is a job. And because Im unemployed, we dont have job-based health insurance. My husband works hard. He works a lot. But hes always been freelance, and hes hardly ever had insurance. Thats what I get from my kind of work, teaching at the university level never much in the way of salary, but benets. Now the work has dried up and Im benet-less again. I had a great one-year appointment teaching at a California State, with wonderful colleagues and interesting students. When the school decided to make the job a permanent position, I couldnt apply. I didnt have the required advanced degree. Twenty years working in my eld, four published books and many published articles and stories, and I wasnt eligible to continue doing exactly what Id been doing. I know it has to do with the schools accreditation. My department would have kept me if it could, but it couldnt. I looked into getting that advanced degree and was even accepted at a school nearby, but I wouldnt have been able to have the degree in hand by the time the permanent job started this fall. So Im out of work. Again. And because health care in this country is tied to employment, we are out of luck. Again. I had cancer. My daughter was hit by a car and got a concussion and a fractured ankle. I know bad things can happen to me, to my family. We have to have health insurance. And we have to pay for it ourselves. And that keeps me up at night. I was excited when the Affordable Care Act was introduced. I thought it was about time everybody in this country had insurance. I believed it was ridiculous that were the only wealthy, Western nation without universal care. But the Affordable Care Act is not universal care. Its not the single-payer system I so hoped for. Its a step in the right direction, but for people like my husband and me, who make a pretty good income, its unlikely to give us any kind of break. Well still have to pay for our insurance entirely ourselves, and Im not optimistic the price will go down. Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, my new insurance company cant deny me because I had cancer. Unfortunately, at least until January, when additional provisions of the law go into effect, they can charge me for it. For my family of four, to get care comparable to what I had through the CSU, we will spend $1,500 a month, or $18,000 a year. Thats a lot of money. I have to teach a lot to make that. The insurance through my former job was fantastic. We could choose our doctors, our co-pay was low and our deductible very reasonable. We had that same insurance when I was diagnosed with cancer. Back then I was working at a different Cal State school and thank God I was. Without insurance, we would have lost our house, decimated the college funds, spent every bit of savings we had, and, six years later, Im sure wed still be paying off those bills. Or we would have gone bankrupt. Some 700,000 Americans every year declare bankruptcy because of medical bills. The number in Japan? Zero. The number in Germany? Zero. I was lucky my cancer diagnosis came when it did. I had a job and I kept it until a year after treatment, when, due to budget cuts to the CSU system, I was laid off. We went on COBRA, because no other insurance would have me the cancer survivor until this latest job came along. COBRA is even more expensive now. Do something else, the demons whisper. I have poured over Craigslist looking for different kinds of work. I recently applied to be an animal control ofcer no lie but withdrew my application when I read the blog, A day in the life of an animal control ofcer. Too sad, too confrontational, too many pit bulls for me. And really, I love teaching. Its what I have done for 20 years. I could hobble along, teaching where I can, doing some independent work, and my income would pay my daughters tuition or at least her living expenses, if it wasnt for our health insurance. The Affordable Care Act mandates I have it, and I know my family needs it, but paying for it means other things will suffer. Were not poor, I dont want to suggest that we are, but we will have to make some hard choices if Im not working and were paying $1,300 a month to an insurance company. I had hoped that, under the new health-care system, essential services for everybody would be covered by the government, as they are in every other First World country. At the very least I wanted the Affordable Care Act to be what it says it is: affordable care for everybody.
