Plans are to tear down Sterling
A decade of plans to trans-
form the historic Hotel Sterling
into a premier residential and re-
tail complex fizzled, and now ef-
forts are quietly under way to
demolish the 113-year-old struc-
ture.
Pennsylvania Historical and
Museum Commission spokes-
man Howard Pollman verified
Tuesday that representatives
from CityVest, the nonprofit
group that owns the downtown
Wilkes-Barre property, came to
Harrisburg last week and in-
formed commission staff of their
plan to tear down the building.
CityVest had to notify the
commission because govern-
ment funding has been spent on
the project and the property is
part of the River Street Historic
District, which is listed on the

WASHINGTON—More U.S.
military crews were exposed to
radiation Tuesday as the Penta-
gon ramped up relief flights
over a Japan reeling from an
earthquake, tsunami and nucle-

The Defense Department
said the Navy started giving an-
ti-radiation pills to some of
those exposed, and Americans
on two military bases south of
Tokyo were advised to stay in-
doors as much as possible.
Meanwhile, U.S. aviation and
energy officials also worked
with Japanese counterparts on
the nuclear developments.
With more aid for victims on
the way, the U.S. Navy said it

POLICE BLOTTER
WILKES-BARRE – A Dupont
man was sentenced Tuesday to
11 years probation on 191 counts
of child pornography charges.
Luis F. Colon, 60, of Main
Street, was sentenced by Lu-
zerne County Judge Joseph
Cosgrove.
Colon could have faced a
maximum of seven years in
prison on each charge, but be-
cause of an agreement between
prosecutors and defense at-
torneys, Colon was recommend-
ed to receive a probationary
sentence because of health
problems.
He was ordered to serve the
first year on house arrest and to
register his address under
Megan’s Law for his entire life.
Colon was charged in March
2010 after investigators conduct-
ed a search for child porno-
graphic images and movies
being traded on Limewire, a
popular online file sharing pro-
gram. Investigators located a
computer in December 2009
that was sharing five files of
images or videos of children
engaged in a sexual act.
On Jan 21, investigators went
to a Glen Rock Trailer Park,
Pittston Township, address and
discovered a desktop computer
and several media storage de-
vices, as well as a laptop com-
puter with no hard drive.

plaint.

DALLAS TWP. – Supervisors
might present a natural gas drill-
ing ordinance at their April 5
meeting, Solicitor ThomasBren-
nan told residents Tuesday eve-
ning.
Resident and Gas Drilling
Awareness Coalition member
Norm Tomchak read a letter to
the supervisors on behalf of fel-
low resident Jeffrey Dixon Sr.
Dixon wrote that supervisors
should consider creating and
passing a ordinance to protect
the safety of citizens and the en-
vironment.
He also mentioned that in the
meantime, supervisors should
consider a moratoriumonall gas
industryprocesses until aneffec-
tive ordinance is created.
Brennan said the township is
going to use an ordinance that
has been researched, reviewed
and recommended by the Penn-
sylvania State Association of
Township Supervisors, and he
hopes to present the ordinance
to the supervisors by the April 5
meeting.
Headdedhehas beenworking
withJackVaraly, alocal planning
consultant, as well as Kingston
Township Solicitor Benjamin
Jones in discussing ordinance
specifics for Dallas Township.
Resident and GDAC member

trusted, as sponsors for the orga-
nization’s annual conference in-
clude natural gas companies and
organizations such as Chesa-
peake Energy, Range Resources,

lus Shale Coalition.
“I think it’s a strong, good
source of information,” said
Brennan of the PSATS.

told residents ordinances can be
superseded by county and state
government.
“We’ll do what we can,” said
Brennan.

JOHNSTOWN — Metropoli-
tan Nicholas Smisko has died of
cancer near the western Pennsyl-
vania city where he served as
spiritual leader of the American
Carpatho-Russian Orthodox Dio-
cese of the U.S.A. He was 75.
Metropolitan Nicholas died
Sunday at the Windber Hospice,
a few miles from Johnstown
where he headedthe diocese that
includes about 10,000 members
in 80 congregations nationwide.
Metropolitan Nicholas was
known for quiet acts of charity
and for his efforts to repair the
nearly 1,000-year-old schism be-
tween the Roman Catholic and
Orthodox churches, as well as
other divisions among Christian
churches. He was known for co-
sponsoring ecumenical services
with Bishop Joseph Adamec,
head of the Roman Catholic Dio-
cese of Altoona-Johnstown, and
Bishop Gregory Pile of the Al-
legheny Synod of the Evangelical
Lutheran Church in American.
He attended such a service at St.
John Gualbert Cathedral in John-
stown as recently as Feb. 13.
“Metropolitan Nicholas made
it a point to be there despite be-
ingverysick,’’ saidTonyDeGol, a
spokesman for the Altoona-John-
stown diocese.”"I think that
speaks volumes about his com-
mitment to ecumenism and uni-
ty.’’
Metropolitan Nicholas re-
ceived a standing ovation when
he spoke about church unity at a
2005 memorial Mass for the late
Roman Catholic Pope John Paul
II.
“John Paul reminded us we are
a church of two lungs: East and
West. Someday, we will end our
division and become one,’’ Met-
ropolitan Nicholas said at that
time.
The Roman Catholic and Or-
thodox churches split during a
dispute at Constantinople in
1054, and the diocese Metropoli-
tan Nicholas headed also grew
out of a smaller schism nearly
nine centuries later.
He was born Feb. 23, 1936 in
PerthAmboy, N.J., toimmigrants
from the Carpathian mountains
of EasternEurope. His familyhad
been Eastern Catholic, a branch
of the church loyal to the Roman
Catholic pope that nonetheless
followed some Orthodox practic-
es, including allowing its priests
to marry. When the Roman Ca-
tholic Church forbade that in
1929, some Catholics left what
had been the Byzantine Catholic
Archeparchy of Pittsburgh to
form the American Carpatho-
Russian Orthodox Diocese that
Metropolitan Nicholas would
eventually head.
Metropolitan Nicholas gradu-
ated from Perth Amboy High
School before entering Christ the
Savior Seminary in Johnstown.
He pastored churches in the
Johnstown area and New York
City before becoming bishop in
1983. Two years later, he became
the ruling bishop in Johnstown
and in 1997 was elevated to met-
ropolitan as head of the church’s
American branch based in this
city 60 miles east of Pittsburgh.
Metropolitan Nicholas’ body
will lie in state today and Thurs-
day at Christ the Savior Cathe-
dral in Johnstown, where his fu-
neral will be celebrated Friday at
10 a.m.

WASHINGTON — House Re-
publicans are preparinga newef-
fort to strip NPR of all federal
support, even as new questions
have emerged from last week’s
scandal that forced an NPR fun-
draiser, as well as its chief exec-
utive, to resign.
The House Rules Committee
will meet in “an emergency” ses-
sion Wednesday to consider a
bill that would permanently bar
NPRor its affiliate stations from
receiving federal funds.
If it passes the committee, as
expected, the bill could make it
to the House floor later this
week.
Republicans already voted to
eliminate all federal support for
the Corporation for Public
Broadcasting for the current fis-
cal year, which helps public sta-
tions buy NPR programming,
but the provision was not incor-
porated into the continuing
agreements that have kept the
government funded.
The new bill, sponsored by
Rep. Doug Lamborn, R-Colo.,
would allow public stations to
take federal funds fromthe CPB,
but would prohibit them from
buying programs from the
broadcaster formerly known as
National Public Radio with the
money.
Meanwhile, the saga of the
video “sting” of former NPRfun-
draiser Ron Schiller grows ever
murkier.
It’s become something of a
puzzle box, with Fox News host
Glenn Beck in one corner, NPR
in another, conservative activist
and prankster James O’Keefe in
athirdandmaybeevenIraGlass,
the host of the public radio pro-
gram “This American Life,” in a
fourth.
O’Keefe’s guerrilla tactics last
week netted a big score: Schiller
and NPRChief Executive Vivian
Schiller resigned.
Ron Schiller was shown in a
heavily edited 11-minute video-
tape, seemingly railing about a
“tea party” takeover of the Re-
publican Party.
But a website backed by Beck,
The Blaze, used a video expert
to go through two hours of raw
footage and concluded that,
while Schiller said many of the
things attributed to him, the
tape was edited in a way to take
several statements out of con-
text and omit others.
Most notably, accordingtothe
raw footage, Schiller explicitly
says that the views of the tea par-
ty he expressed come by way of
two Republican sources, one of
whom he says “was an ambassa-
dor”’ and another who was a
“top donor” to the GOP.

SCRANTON – A federal judge on
Tuesdaygranteda motionfiledbyfeder-
al prosecutors that seeks the forfeiture
of nearly $1 million from former Lu-
zerne County Judge Mark Ciavarella.
The ruling by U.S. District Judge Ed-
win Kosik clears the way for the govern-
ment toseize anypropertyor assets Cia-
varella has that were derived from pro-
ceeds from his crimes.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office sought the
forfeiture of $997,600 based on Ciava-
rella’s conviction last month on multi-
ple counts, including racketeering,
money laundering, honest services
fraud, conspiracy and tax evasion.
The forfeiture action specifically tar-
gets $997,600 Ciavarella and former
Judge Michael Conahan had received
from real estate developer Robert Mer-
icle relating to the construction of the
PA Child Care juvenile detention cen-
ter.
How successful the
government will be in
collecting any money
remains uncertain,
however.
Kosik’s order gives
the government the
authority to investi-
gate to determine what assets Ciavarel-
la has. To seize the asset, it would have
to show that it was either utilized to
commit his crimes or that it was pur-
chased with money obtained from the
crimes.
Ciavarella is also known to be deeply
in debt. He and Conahan are among five
people who were guarantors on a $4.1
million loan, which is nowin default, in
connection with The Sanctuary, a town-
house development located in Wright
Township.
Ciavarella’s attorney, Al Flora, said he
does not know of any assets Ciavarella
has other than a Florida condominium
he shared with Conahan and contribu-
tions with interest that Ciavarella made
to his pension fund with the State Em-
ployee Retirement System.
According to records previously ob-
tained from SERS, Ciavarella made
$180,351 in contributions, which had
earned $51,699 in interest as of Dec. 31,
2008, for a total of $232,050. Interest
has continued to accrue on the account,
but the amount to date was not immedi-
ately available Tuesday.
Ciavarella sought to withdraw that
money, but SERS denied the request
based on a more than $4 million claim
made against his pension by the state
Department of Public Welfare. The dis-
pute is nowpending before a judge with
the state Commonwealth Court, who
has scheduled a hearing on the matter
for April 26.
Flora said he does not know how
much equity the judges have in the con-
dominium in Jupiter, Fla., which is up
for sale. The condo, which was pur-
chased for $785,000 in 2004 by a corpo-
ration controlled by the wives of Ciava-
rella and Conahan, was originally listed
for $1.1 million in July 2008. The price
haddroppedto$745,000as of last week.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office previously
expressed concern that Ciavarella was
dissipating his assets to protect the
money from seizure. They pointed to
his transfer of a “large sum” of money to
his daughter, Lauren Stahl, shortly after
he sold his Wright Township home.
Stahl and her husband, Brian, then pur-
chased a townhouse in Kingston. The
townhouse was sold in October for
$247,000.

HARVEYS LAKE – The borough will
not adopt an ordinance banning natural
gas drilling.
After a 1½ hour special hearing Tues-
day evening, council voted 6-0 against an
ordinance that would have made it a
crime to extract natural gas within the
borough or to withdraw water from
sources within the borough for use in gas
drilling.
The ordinance, draftedby the Commu-
nity Environmental Legal Defense Fund,
of Chambersburg, was first introduced to
council by borough resident Michele
Boice in November of last year, with the
fund first notifying the borough it could
draft ananti-drillingordinanceinAugust.
Boice and its other
proponents claimed
popular support for the
ordinance. Boice prior
to the special meeting
submitted more than
500 notarized signa-
tures to council that
she said represented
the majority of bor-
ough residents who
voted in the last elec-
tion.
Boice said the ordi-
nance was necessary to
protect the borough’s
air and water from the
environmental hazards
associated with natural
gas drilling because
state lawmakers
haven’t adequately pro-
tected them.
Councilwoman
Diane Dwyer, who mo-
tionedtovoteontheor-
dinance and twice motioned to hold
Tuesday’s hearing, prefaced her vote
against the ordinance by stating, “I have
toreplytoa moredefinedpositiononreg-
ulating the gas drilling,” that the ordi-
nance could open the borough to a law-
suit, and that “I do not believe we should
act this quickly.”
Referring to provisions of the ordi-
nancethat wouldineffect nullifyportions
of the state Oil & Gas Law, Councilman
Richard Williams III also said he “(does)
not in any way support natural gas drill-
ing in Harveys Lake Borough, but I can-
not and will not violate state law to stop
it,” before voting no on the ordinance.
Councilman Boyd Barber abstained
from voting at the advice of the bor-

ing Tuesday night.

YATESVILLE – Pittston Area
School Board member Robert Linskey
talked about the proposed state bud-
get and its impact on the district at
Tuesday night’s school board meeting,
suggesting teachers and administra-
tors be asked to forgo raises this year.
He said that, based on the state’s
plans and his discussions with state
Rep. Mike Carroll, the district was just
squeaking by this year, but major
problems loomed ahead.
He suggested teachers and adminis-
trators be asked to forgo raises for this
year, as has been suggested by Gov.
Tom Corbett in his budget address last
week. The governor laid out a propos-
al for cuts in education and other pro-
grams to avoid a state budget deficit.
Linskey raised the issue of layoffs in
2011 and 2012 if spending were not cut
in some manner.
Board members Martin Quinn and
Anthony Guariglia disagreed with the
idea that layoffs might be in the future
if no help were received.
After a discussion involving the
board solicitor, it was decided to ex-
plore an executive meeting with the
teachers’ representatives and the ad-
ministration. The board stressed it did
not want to scare anyone with talk of
cutbacks or layoffs at this time.
Linskey also mentioned there had
been some political activity in the
schools. Board President Terrance
Best said he also had been made
aware of the activity.
Superintendent George Cosgrove
explained there had been some activ-
ity, such as the signing of petitions
and informational meetings. When
Linskey suggested letters of repri-
mand be handed out for violating dis-
trict rules, the superintendent asked
that not be done. He said the problem
had been resolved, and the misinter-
pretation of the rules prohibiting the
activity was the fault of the adminis-
tration.
In other business, the board ap-
proved a general obligation bond issue
totaling $18.1 million to refinance
bonds from 2001. The bond underwrit-
er, Henry Sallusti of RBC Capital Mar-
kets, said the new bond issue would
lower the interest rate from 4.99 per-
cent to 3.75 percent with a savings to
the district of more than $969,000 in
interest payments.

DUPONT – A meeting at the munici-
pal building Tuesday to discuss the pro-
posed Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Interna-
tional Airport connector project attract-
ed a large group of residents, business
owners and politicians in support of the
plan.
The $42 million state-funded project
calls for reconstructing the airport inter-
changeoff Interstate81andconstructing
a roadto the Grimes Industrial Park.
The multifaceted plan would also re-
configure the Inter-
state81exitsfortheair-
port, creating one in
each direction, instead
of two that currently
exist.
State Rep. Mike Car-
roll, D-Avoca, joined
state Sen. John Blake,
D-Archbald, in high-
lighting the merits of
the project, which they
saidwouldincreasethe
safety of those travel-
ing on I-81 by extend-
ingthe lengthof ramps
that serve the airport
and Dupont and eliminate truck traffic
along SusconRoad.
The access road needs the approval of
theBi-CountyAirport Board–composed
of the commissioners from Lackawanna
andLuzerne counties. The boarddidnot
take action at its February meeting and
asked PennDOT to do more homework
andprovide more data.
Blakesaidtheairport board’sconcerns
of increased traffic are valid, but they
have been allayed after reviewing Penn-
DOT’s design which features several
roundabouts to slowtraffic.
The money for the project is available
through PennDOT, but the only thing
standing in the way of getting it off the
ground is the approval from the airport
board to grant a right-of-way for the con-
nector roadto the industrial park.
“The airport has been supported by
the business community in good times
andbad,”saidBlake. “It’stimetheairport
stopsoperatingitsspaceinavacuumand
look to the community.”
When the project was first proposed
more than 20 years ago, the cost would
havebeen$4million, saidCharlesAdoni-
zio, director of the Greater Pittston
Chamber of Commerce. “We have built a
beautiful first-classairport using$80mil-
lion of public money,” he said, adding
that he and his family frequently travel
throughtheairport. “What wouldtheair-
port be without community support?”

WILKES-BARRE– Defying the laws
of physics, Tom “Dr. Cue” Rossman --
ESPN and World Trick Shot Master --
demonstrated his talent of pool trick
shots as part of a fundraiser Tuesday
night to aid area veterans.
Jack and Jill’s Billiards, Blackman
Street, Wilkes-Barre, donated the use
of its facility and opened its doors to
host the first Northeastern Pennsylva-
nia chapter of the American Pool Asso-
ciation fundraiser. The event benefited
the Department of Veterans Affairs
Medical Center’s Veteran Canteen
fund and the Emergency Services
fund.
The Veterans Canteen Fund is a pri-
vately funded program to allow veter-
ans to get some food or a drink at the
hospital’s cafeteria, said Carol Lewis,
league co-founder. The Emergency
Services fund provides anything from
coats to rides for the veterans.
Everything from admission to T-
shirts were available through dona-
tions to the medical center.
“Whether they had 5 cents or $5,
they could get a T-shirt,” Lewis said.
Charles Lewis, Carol’s husband and
league co-founder, said he was pleased
with the turnout.
“I was figuring about 75 to 100 peo-
ple,” he said. “I would say we have
about 85 people here.”
The fundraiser resulted from Lewis
and a few of his friends discussing the
shame that the Veterans Canteen fund
does not receive any state or county as-
sistance.
The next day, Rossman’s wife, Mar-
ty, called Lewis stating an event at
Wilkes University was canceled and
asking if the league needed their ser-
vices. Lewis said at that moment his
mind went blank.
“I could not believe it,” he said. “I
asked if I could call her back.”
Lewis talked the idea over with his
wife and friends. Within 15 minutes, a
decision was made. Lewis and his wife
footed the $600 bill to hire Rossman,
who is associated with the APA, for a
two-hour demonstration.
At Tuesday’s event, Rossman, 61, ex-
plained his shots and how he learned
themto an excited crowd. Talking just
as fast as an auctioneer, he had the
room full of people laughing with his
anecdotes.
Kicking off the show with a bang,
Rossman started by shooting five balls
inthe side pocket inless thena second.
After three tries and sinking only three
of the five balls, Rossman looked up
andsaid, “OK, toshoot five balls inless
then a second, you need seven balls.”
He succeeded.

WASHINGTON — The GOP-
led House approved a short-term
spendingbill Tuesdaybut onlyaf-
ter dozens of Republicans aban-
doned the effort, forcing party
leaders to rely on Democrats to
achieve passage and help skirt a
threatened government shut-
down.
The vote showed clearly the
mounting difficulty of resolving a
budget stalemate that has con-
sumed Washington for weeks.
The Senate is expectedtovote on
the bill before Friday, when gov-
ernment funding to keep agen-
cies operating runs out. But simi-
lar resistance from conservatives
is expected in that chamber.
With conservatives rejecting
their party’s stopgap proposal as
inadequate, the vote also showed
the trouble ahead for House
Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio,
as he negotiates a long-term deal
with Democrats on behalf of a
deeply split Republican caucus.
The White House, meanwhile,
said it was time to resolve the
budget impasse “in a sensible
way.”
Talks continue behind the
scenes on a compromise that
would keep the government run-
ning through the the 2011 fiscal
year, which ends Sept. 30.
As the two sides struggle, pub-
lic opinion surveys have not giv-
en a decided advantage to either
camp.
Voters oppose a possible dis-
ruption of government services
and would tend to blame Repub-
licans more than Democrats. Yet
surveys also show that many
Americans credit congressional
Republicans with taking a grea-
ter leadershiprole thanPresident
Barack Obama in Washington.
At the same time, Americans
continue to trust the president
more than Republicans in Con-
gress to handle economic issues,
according to one of the surveys,
by the Washington Post and ABC
News.
Boehner acknowledged the
push-back from within his ranks,
but said the GOP would have an
additional opportunity to rein in
deficits during the upcoming de-
bateover raisingthenation’s debt
ceiling.
The House voted 271-158 on
the stopgap measure that would
cut $6 billion over the next three
weeks, largelybyeliminatingpro-
grams Obama had already identi-
fied for termination or reduc-
tions, as well as specially ear-
marked congressional projects.
Coupled with the previously
approved temporary bill, Con-
gress would have cut $10 billion
in just over a month.
Still, 54 Republicans broke
ranks to vote no, saying the tem-
porary bill represented a timid
version of the earlier House-
passed measure, which would
cut more than $60 billion
through September.
Only six Republicans opposed
the previous stopgap measure
earlier this month.
The GOP defectors were most-
ly veteran conservatives who
aligned with more than 20 con-
servative freshmen.
They were particularly upset
that top policy priorities had
been dropped from the bill.
Shelved for now are attempts
to defund Obama’s national
healthcare plan, gut PlannedPar-
enthood or eliminate the power
of the Environmental Protection
Agency.
“The time has come to take a
stand,” said Rep. Michele Bach-
mann, R-Minn.
Conservative groups have
been pressuring rank-and-file
members to oppose the bill.
Still, about three-fourths of the
freshman class voted in favor of
the legislation, heeding leaders’
call for unity and saying the $6
billion in cuts is not insubstan-
tial.
“It’s not enough — but it is a
step in the right direction,” said
Rep. Austin Scott, who is the
president of the freshman class.
Democrats also split over the
temporary measure, with 85 in
support and 104 opposed. They
remained reluctant to support
cutting at the GOP-preferred rate
of $2 billion a week.
Spending reductions on such a
magnitude, they say, is prevent-
ing government from operating
efficiently and could imperil the
economic recovery.
Rep. James Moran, D-Va., said
the approach was an inefficient
way to run the government
“lurching back and forth like a
drunken sailor.”
“Actually, I take that back be-
cause the Navy would never con-
duct operations like this,” he
said.
Vote keeps government running

spending measure despite

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky takes questions on the contentious spending
bill to keep the government running Tuesday during a news conference on Capitol Hill.
WASHINGTON – U.S. Reps.
Tom Marino of Lycoming Town-
shipandLouBarletta of Hazleton
voted Tuesday for a short-term
spending bill, saying it achieves a
dual purposeof keepingthefeder-
al government open while still
shaving federal spending.
A number of House Republi-
cans votedagainst thethree-week
“continuing resolution” that cuts
$6 billion. The temporary spend-
ing bill passed 271-158, with 54
Republicans voting no and 85
Democrats voting yes.
The complaint by some in the
House GOP, who control the
House majority, was that the cuts
in this and an earlier temporary
spending bill fall far short of the
total $61 billion in cuts through
the Sept. 30 end of the 2011fiscal
year that House Republicans ap-
proved earlier this year.
But Senate Democrats have
agreedthus far onlytocuts of less
than $5 billion through Sept. 30,
andMarinosaidit is important to
keep the federal government op-
erating so Social Security recip-
ients receivetheir checks andmil-
itary funding keeps flowing, for
example.
“There is no reason to shut the
government down,” Marino said
inaCapitol Hill interviewoutside
theHousefloor beforethevoteon
thespendingbill. “It is not our ob-
jective to shut the government
down, it is our objectivetocut the
spending. In
the continuing
resolution, we
do, wecut 6bil-
lion more dol-
lars. That
keeps adding
up and adding
up.”
Marino and
Barletta noted
an earlier tem-
porary spend-
ing measure
approved by
Congress that
kept thefederal
government
operating through the end of this
week cut $4 billion over two
weeks. This brings the total cuts
agreed to by both parties to $10
billion over five weeks.
Barletta said he was pleased
that, “for the third time in less
thanthreemonths, I havecast my
vote in support of a plan to cut
government spending at historic
levels while keeping the govern-
ment open for business.”
He saidina statement after the
vote that, “The American people
sent aclearmessageinNovember
– the checkbook is closed, the era
of out-of-control spending is over,
and the time has come for a re-
sponsible budget that will get our
fiscal house in order.”
This bill, expectedtobe passed
by the Senate later this week,
keeps the government open for
business until April 8.

Israel: Arms ship seized
Israel said Tuesday it seized a cargo
ship loaded with weapons sent by Iran
to Palestinian militants in Gaza, in-
cluding sophisticated land-to-sea mis-
siles that officials said could change the
balance of power in the area.
The takeover in the Mediterranean
Sea was the latest in a series of Israeli
naval raids meant to counter the grow-
ing influence of Iran, which Israel ac-
cuses of supplying rockets and other
arms to Israel’s bitterest enemies.
The military released a photo of a
booklet with the words “technical
missile identification document” writ-
ten in Farsi on the cover. It identified
the system as a C-704 “Nasr” missile,
provided a serial number and date of
issue in the Persian calendar.
NORFOLK, VA.
Piracy pleas are entered
Thirteen Somalis and a man from
Yemen pleaded not guilty to piracy,
kidnapping and firearms charges Tues-
day in the February hijacking of a yacht
that left four Americans dead.
They entered their pleas in federal
court in Norfolk, where five other men
convicted of piracy in a separate case
last year had been sentenced to life in
prison a day earlier.
Each of the men requested a jury
trial and all were ordered to remain
jailed until then by Magistrate Judge
Tommy Miller, who said they are a
threat to society and a flight risk.
If convicted of piracy against the
yacht Quest, the 14 men would face
mandatory life sentences without the
possibility of parole.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Joseph DePa-
dilla said several have already con-
fessed their involvement in piracy to
the FBI.
SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA
N. Korea talks to Russia
North Korea told a Russian envoy it
is willing to discuss a recently dis-
closed uranium enrichment program if
long-stalled nuclear disarmament talks
resume, state media reported Tuesday.
Concerns about the North’s nuclear
capability took on renewed urgency in
November when a visiting American
scientist was shown a uranium enrich-
ment facility.
Uranium enrichment could give
North Korea, already believed to have
enough weaponized plutonium for at
least six atomic bombs, a second way
to make nuclear weapons. North Korea
has carried out two nuclear tests, in
2006 and 2009, and is believed to be
working toward mounting a bomb on a
long-range missile.
ALLENTOWN
Gas lines to take long time
The natural gas utility connected to
a fatal explosion last month in Penn-
sylvania says it could take 40 years to
replace all its aging, cast-iron pipelines.
UGI Corp. Vice President Robert
Beard told a state Senate panel on
Tuesday that, at its current pace, the
utility would need four decades to
replace the old pipes, some of which
are a century old.
Beard called the timeline "reason-
able" but said the investigation into the
February blast could accelerate the
utility’s efforts.
The explosion and fire rocked an
Allentown neighborhood and killed
five people, including an elderly couple
and a 4-month-old boy.
Officials suspect a cracked piece of
cast-iron pipe is to blame for the blast.
Beard says that pipe was not a candi-
date for "accelerated replacement."

CAIRO — U.S. Secretary of State Hill-
ary Rodham Clinton implored Egyptians
on Tuesday to complete their fragile and
unfinished democratic transition.
Fearing that gains made since last
month’s ouster of authoritarian Presi-
dent Hosni Mubarak may be lost to impa-
tience or a hijacking of the political sys-
tem by extremists, Clinton urged Egyp-
tians to seize the opportunity to make
their country a model for an inclusive
Arab democracy.
“To the people of Egypt, let me say:
This moment of history belongs to you,”
Clinton said after talks with Egypt’s new
foreign minister, Nabil al-Araby. “This is
your achievement and you broke barriers
and overcame obstacles to pursue the
dream of democracy.”
Clinton unveiled details of an econom-
ic support package aimed at helping to
create badly needed jobs, mainly for
Egypt’s exploding youth population, and
spur foreign investment. In addition to
an already announced $150 million being
redirected to the transition and financial
sector, the aidwill include tens of billions
of dollars in credits and private sector
loans as well as the expansion of Egyp-
tian facilities that are able to send duty-
free exports to the United States.
Clinton applauded the dissolving
Tuesday of the country’s widely hated
state security agency, which was accused
of torture and other human rights abuses
in the suppression of dissent against
Mubarak.

MANAMA, Bahrain—Bahrain’s king
declared a three-month state of emer-
gency Tuesday to quell a Shiite upris-
ing, as clashes spread through the cap-
ital and surrounding villages in a show-
down that drew in the region’s major
powers and splintered along its main
sectarian faultlines. At least two Bahrai-
nis and a Saudi soldier died, and hun-
dreds of protesters were injuredbyshot-
gun blasts and clubs.
A force of more than 1,000 Saudi-led
troops expanded to defend the Sunni
monarchy; Iran and Lebanon’s Hezbol-
lah denounced the presence of foreign
soldiers; and Washington feared for its
main naval base in the Gulf. Any com-
promise appeared distant at best, with
the latest order fromBahrain’s king and
protesters’ demands for the royal family
to be toppled altogether.
Doctors were overwhelmed by on-
slaught of patients at Manama’s Salma-
niya hospital, rushing the woundedinto
a packed emergency room, forcing
many to wait in the halls. Nurses held
back tears when attending to injured
young men, and doctors could barely
contain their anger.
“They were all shot from close
range,” said Nabeel Hameed, a neuro-
surgeonat the capital’s biggest hospital.
The state of emergency in the U.S.-
backed regime gives Bahrain’s military
chief wide authority to battle protesters
demanding political reforms and equal
rights for the majority Shiites.
At Manama’s Pearl Square thousands
of protesters were still in shock over the
arrival of the neighboring armies when
the state of emergency was declared.
The White House saidTuesdaythat it
was increasingly concerned about re-
ports of "provocative acts and sectarian
violence" in Bahrain.
National Security Council spokes-
man Tommy Vietor said the use of force
and violence would only worsen the sit-
uation.
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rod-
ham Clinton says she prodded Saudi
Arabia tosupport a peaceful political so-
lution and stressed that “they along
with everyone else need to be promot-
ing the dialogue.”

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

ough solicitor because he has
signed gas leases for property he
owns in Wyoming County.
Ordinance backers touted it as
offering superior protection for
the borough than its zoning ordi-
nance can provide.
“We don’t control the wa-
tershed because we’re in a bowl,
and to the extent that this ordi-
nance can help us do that, I
think that the council should
consider it,” resident Mike
Dziak said. “I’m concerned
about our ability to control
things that aren’t in our hands,
and it isn’t in our hands, and the
zoning thing just doesn’t do it.”
Others, including Harveys
Lake Environmental Advisory
Council member Michael Daley,
borough planning consultant
Jack Varaly and borough Solic-
itor Charles D. McCormick ar-
gued enacting the ordinance
could expose the borough to le-
gal liability.
Daley called the ordinance “le-
gal gamesmanship” and “a gam-
ble” that “clearly violates the
state oil and gas law” that could
cost the borough hundreds of
thousands to defend in court; Va-
raly said the ability to ban gas
drilling is ultimately a question
of land use and falls under the
authority of municipal zoning,
and described how the borough
could strengthen its zoning ordi-
nance to effectively prohibit
drilling without adopting the or-
dinance; McCormick called the
ordinance “overly broad” and
“legally questionable,” particu-
larly in its outlining of the in-
alienable rights of natural com-
munities and ecosystems, and
said “it will most likely cause sig-
nificant difficulty for the resi-
dents down the road completely
outside of the question of the gas
drilling.”
After the meeting, Boice said
she was disappointed council
did not adopt the ordinance, and
that she “won’t give up. I’ll con-
tinue. This isn’t the last Harveys
Lake has heard from us.”
“We’re going to try to support
people in the upcoming election
who are going to honor the will
of the people,” she continued.
“We, meaning the people of Har-
veys Lake, who overwhelmingly
support this ordinance. We have
to elect people who will honor
the will of the people.”

ordinance.
knowledge of a bus company
operating out of the building.
Super Luxury Tours also lists
a new address for its operation
– 17 E. Market St. – across the
street from Wilkes-Barre City
Hall. The building is vacant, but
there are two signs that show
Super Luxury Tours will soon
occupy the space.
Nicholas Tsioles owns the
building and he said Super Lux-
ury Tours has been paying rent
for the space since November.
He couldn’t provide the name of
anybody affiliated with the bus
company.
“The first time anybody came
there was today,” Tsioles said. “I
asked them why they haven’t
opened, and they told me they
are making more money by be-
ing closed. They pay the rent on
time every month.”
Tsioles said Super Luxury
Tours has another office in Phi-
ladelphia. He said the company
will open its office in his build-
ing soon.
According to an Associated
Press story, police on Tuesday
were examining the wreckage of
the bus to try to figure out why
it crashed as it traveled from
New York City’s Chinatown to
Philadelphia, killing the driver
and a passenger, and injuring
several others. The story states
the bus trip originated in
Wilkes-Barre.
According to the AP story,
the one-vehicle crash Monday
night on the New Jersey Turn-
pike — one of the nation’s most
heavily trafficked highways —
happened just days after a bus
from a Connecticut casino
crashed as it was returning to
New York City’s Chinatown
neighborhood, killing 15 people.
On the State Department fil-
ing, the president of Super Lux-
ury Tours is listed as Mei Ying
Gao. A phone number on the
filings was answered by a per-
son in New York City who iden-
tified himself only as a manager
for the bus company. He direct-
ed a reporter to attorney Mi-
chael Salvo of the law firm Ah-
muty, Demers & McManus of
Morristown , N.J.
“We’re still investigating what
happened ourselves,” Salvo
said. “I really can’t make any
statement, other than to say we
regret any loss of life.”
Salvo said he did have the
name of the company’s presi-
dent but would not release it.
He said he was “not sure” who
owned the company.
A filing with the U.S. Depart-
ment of Transportation shows
Super Luxury Tours had four ac-
cidents in the past 24 months,
with two involving injuries and
requiring towing. The reports
show 16 buses and 16 drivers
employed by the company that
is solely a passenger service.
According to another Associ-
ated Press report, Super Luxury
Tours was identified in the Fed-
eral Motor Carrier Safety Ad-
ministration’s database as hav-
ing a higher than average num-
ber of violations for unsafe driv-
ing, including nine tickets in the
past two years for speeding, im-
proper passing and failure to
obey traffic control devices.
The company has also been
cited repeatedly in the past two
years for having drivers who
don’t speak English.
The state Department of
State provided a copy of the
company’s articles of incorpora-
tion with a stock issuance of
1,000 shares. The document was
filed by Kim Yeung Ling, P.C.,
with offices at 1010 Race St.,
Philadelphia. A message left
with Ling’s office was not re-
turned. The articles of incorpo-
ration were filed on July 5,
2007, with Amy M. Li listed as
the incorporator. The address
used was 115 N. Meade St.,
Wilkes-Barre.
Ted Patton, an officer with
Martz Trailways in Wilkes-
Barre, said he had never heard
of Super Luxury Tours.
James Davis said three Asians
rented from him for about a
year and moved out of his build-
ing on North Meade three years
ago. He said he understood
them to be employees of a Chi-
nese restaurant in East End.
Davis said he never went
through zoning for approval to
operate a bus company. Wilkes-
Barre city does not have any re-
cord of any zoning requests/ap-
provals for the company.
“They paid their rent on
time,” Davis said.
A sign at 17 E. Market St.
reads: “We provide express bus
routes between Wilkes-Barre,
PA, to New York, NY. Coming
soon.” An e-mail address is list-
ed at: [email protected].
An e-mail sent to that address
requesting information about
the company was not answered.
According to the AP story:
In Monday’s accident, driver
Wei Wang, a 50-year-old Taiwa-
nese national who lived in For-
est Hills, N.Y., was thrown
through the windshield, and
several passengers were badly
injured, state police Sgt. Ste-
phen Jones said. Passenger Troy
Nguyen, 20, of Royersford, Pa.,
died after being taken to a hos-
pital in New Brunswick. Police
said Nguyen had been partially
ejected from a driver’s-side win-
dow. Forty-one other passengers
were sent to hospitals.
Preliminary evidence sug-
gests the bus was traveling
south on the turnpike at around
9 p.m. Monday when the crash
occurred just south of Exit 9 in
East Brunswick, about 40 miles
southwest of Manhattan. The
vehicle went off the road onto
the grassy median before strik-
ing a concrete overpass support,
Jones said.
The white bus came to a stop
at an angle, its damaged front
section pointed off the highway
and onto the median.
The cause of the crash has
not been determined, and the
investigation could take several
weeks. The medical examiner’s
office will perform an autopsy
on the driver to determine if he
suffered a medical issue prior to
the crash.
The bus was moved to an im-
pound lot, where state police
said it would be inspected and
all available data would be taken
from its electronic components.
CRASH

PETE G. WILCOX/THE TIMES LEADER
17 E. Market St., Wilkes-Barre,
is one of the buildings listed as
the headquarters of Super
Luxury Tours Inc.
Calabro’s apartment, according
to the inventory receipt for the
search warrant.
Muchler, 60, of Wilkes-Barre,
said he sent Calabro, whom he
identified as his best friend, a
text message around midnight
Saturday.
“ ‘Are you up?’ That was the
message I sent her,” Muchler
said. “I came home from work
on Friday, had a few beers, and I
was not going to work on Sat-
urday and I was going to take
her to the St. Patrick’s Day pa-
rade up in Scranton.”
Muchler said he did not re-
ceive a reply from Calabro. He
was planning to take Calabro
food shopping Sunday.
He said Calabro enjoyed going
to the Pittston Riverfront Park
under the bridge to have a ciga-
rette and daydream. He also
noted Calabro was a frequent pa-
tron at Stephanie’s Bar on Main
Street, Pittston, where police be-
lieve she was Friday night.
A woman who answered the
phone at the bar said she told
police Calabro left the bar with
Arthur Stoss around 7 or 7:30
p.m.
Stoss, 48, of Frothington
Street, Pittston Township, was
arrested late Saturday night by
the same investigators probing
the disappearance of Calabro.
Luzerne County District At-
torney Jacqueline Musto Carroll
said she could not confirm Ca-
labro was at the bar. She said
the investigation is ongoing.
Police searched Stoss’ resi-
dence after an informant said
they were in his company Friday
night into Saturday morning
and allegedly saw him deposit
two syringes and cotton in the
kitchen, according to a search
warrant affidavit.
Stoss was charged with a mis-
demeanor count of possession of
drug paraphernalia. He re-
mained jailed at the county pris-
on for lack of $20,000 bail.
A drug paraphernalia charge
by and in itself is routinely is-
sued by summons in the mail.
Police said in the criminal
complaint Stoss had “noticeable
track marks on his arms.” Stoss
claimed scratches on his arms
were caused by a cat, and point-
ed to two bruises on his fore-
arm, saying those were from
“shooting up,” according to the
complaint.
Calabro’s family told police
she wears eyeglasses and did
have dentures, according to the
search warrant affidavit.
Divers from Germania Hose
Co. in Duryea returned to the
river on Tuesday to resume
their search.
When evidence of an assault
was found under the bridge on
Saturday, the river was 27 to 28
feet. On Tuesday, the river had
receded to 15 feet.
Divers recovered a coat
caught in brush below the sur-
face of the water on Tuesday.
Pittston Police Chief Robert
H. Powers released a statement
Tuesday evening notifying resi-
dents they are at no risk in re-
gards to the incident, which he
called isolated.

Happy Birthday In Heaven, Daddy!
THEODORE FICHTNER
(03-16-34 to 12-19-07)
We would have celebrated your 77th birthday with
you today, Daddy, but God needed you more, I
guess. It still hurts when holidays, birthdays or
our everyday living goes by without you. It’s like
a piece of our hearts are missing because you are
gone. The hurt just keeps going on and on and it
doesn’t seem to let up at all. There’s so many things
going on in all our lives, both happy and sad that, if only you were here, you
could fx the bad ones and celebrate the happy ones with us. Just know that
we think about you and miss you each and every day, Daddy, and we love
you so very much!
Love, your loving wife, Mary, daughters, sons-in-law,
grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
In Loving Memory Of
Anthony Yockavitch

He only takes the best.

SCRANTON – The union
representing nurses at Com-
munity Health Systems has
asked a federal judge to hold
the hospital in contempt of
court for allegedly failing to
abide by an arbitrator’s deci-
sion that ordered the rein-
statement of a nurse who had
been fired.
Attorneys for the
unionsayCHShas re-
fused to reinstate
Alex Rendina, de-
spite an order by U.S.
District Judge Wil-
liam Nealon that up-
held the arbitrator’s
ruling directing that
Rendina be returned
to serve “as soon a
practicable.”
Inareplytothemo-
tion, the hospital de-
nies it is violating the
order, arguing it has
the right to hold Ren-
dina’s reinstatement in abey-
ance pending the resolution
of its appeal of Nealon’s order
to the Third Circuit Court of
Appeals.
The dispute centers on the
interpretation of what the ar-
bitrator meant when he di-
rected Rendina to be rein-
stated “as soon as practica-
ble.”
Robert J. Toy of Philadel-
phia, attorney for CHS, says
incourt papers that the hospi-
tal contends it does not have
to reinstate him because its
appeal is still pending. The
union believes the term
means Rendina must be rein-
stated immediately.
Rendina was fired in May
2009 after the hospital ac-
cusedhimof several disciplin-
ary infractions. Arbitrator
Warren Laddon found that
Rendina had committed
some of the alleged infrac-
tions, but not every one that
was alleged.
He determined termina-
tion was not warranted, less-
ening the sanction to a10-day
suspension. Nealon upheld
that award in a ruling issued
in December.
Toy says the hospital con-
tinues to dispute the arbitra-
tor andNealon’s deci-
sions. It notes some
of the allegations
against Rendina in-
volved serious mat-
ters of patient care;
therefore it’s proper
toawait the appellate
court ruling.
“The hospital re-
spectfully submits
that, given these pa-
tient care issues, it is
not ‘practicable’ tore-
turn Mr. Rendina to
work until the Third
Circuit issues a rul-
ing on the hospital’s
pending appeal,” Toy says.
Jonathan Walters, attorney
for the Wyoming Valley Nurs-
es Association, saidthehospi-
tal’s argument is nothing
more than a “desperate at-
tempt” to influence the court
by raising issues already re-
jected by the arbitrator.
“The mere mention of
these so-called concerns is
not only an inappropriate at-
tempt to influence the court
in this proceeding, but is im-
material insomuch as it re-
veals no justification for the
hospital’s refusal to comply
with the court’s order,” Wal-
ters says.
Nurses want CHS
held in contempt
Attorneys say CHS has
refused to reinstate Alex
Rendina, despite an order.

with the progress of the case, say-
ing it is “not a new case” and
should be moving along.
“This is not what we’re here for,”
Cosgrove saidinrelationtothe evi-
dence delays.
Cosgrove said prosecutors have
until March 24 to obtain phone re-
cords, while defense attorneys
have bythat date tohandover their
psychiatric report.

have until May 6 to conduct their
own psychiatric evaluation.

SCRANTON – A former po-
diatrist has been charged with
bilking Medicare out of more
than $700,000 for accepting
payments in connection with
items for which he was not
authorized to bill the insur-
ance program.
Paul Chromey, 56,
of Plains Township,
has agreed to plead
guilty to one count of
theft in connection
with health care, ac-
cording to a plea
agreement filed Mon-
day in federal court.
Chromey, the own-
er of Northeast Pe-
dorthic Services in
Plains Township, illegally
billed Medicare for diabetic
shoes, inserts and other items
from Jan. 1, 2006, to July 10,
2009, according to a press re-
lease issued Tuesday by U.S.
Attorney Peter J. Smith.
Smith said Chromey had
been barred from billing Medi-
care and all other federal
health care benefit programs
for a period of 10 years begin-
ning in December 2000. He
therefore was not entitled to
receive any federal payments.
The press release does not
say why Chromey was barred
from billing Medicare, but it
appears it is related to a 1999
case in which Chromey was
charged with Medicare fraud.
In that case, authorities said
Chromey, who served as busi-
ness manager for a podiatrist
who had offices in Old Forge
and Exeter, billed Medicare
$89,260 for services that were
not performed. The podiatrist
in that case was not charged
with any crime.
Chromey pleaded guilty in
July 1999 to one count
of mail fraud in con-
nection with that case.
He was later sentenced
to three years proba-
tion and ordered to
pay $29,725 in restitu-
tion.
In the latest case,
Chromey has admitted
he illegally billed
Medicare for $764,758
in goods. He has
agreed to reimburse the pro-
gram the full amount, with the
first $100,000 to be paid at the
time of his plea. The remain-
ing restitution will be paid in
accordance with a schedule
that will be determined by the
court.
The maximum sentence for
the crime is one year in prison
and a $100,000 fine.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office
has agreed to recommend a
lesser sentence based on Chro-
mey’s agreement to plead
guilty.

WILKES-BARRE – Bail for an
alleged Bloods gang member
charged in a $15 million heroin
trafficking ring was cut in half, to
$500,000, during a preliminary
hearing in Wilkes-Barre Central
Court on Tuesday.
David A. Johnson Jr., 20, also
known as “Money,” waived his
right to the preliminary hearing,
sending two counts of possession
withintent todeliver a controlled
substance and one count each of
corrupt organizations and crimi-
nal conspiracy to Luzerne Coun-
ty Court.
Other counts of possession
withintent todeliver a controlled
substance, conspiracy and crimi-
nal use of a cell phone against
Johnson were withdrawn.
Johnson was one of 17 people
charged in October by the state
Office of Attorney General Bu-
reau of Narcotics Investigation
and Drug Control, Luzerne
County Drug Task Force and
Wilkes-Barre police in Operation
Bloodstain for allegedly distri-
buting 1.5 million heroin packets
on local streets since January
2007.
Drug agents identified the al-
leged heroin sources as members
of the Bloods street gang in New
York. Divisions of the gang that
trafficked heroin to the Wyoming
Valley were the Sex, Money, Mur-
der sect based in New Jersey, the
Nine Tech Grenades sect out of
Brooklyn, New York City, and G-
Shine sect based out of Queens,
New York City, according to the
state AG’s office.
The Sex, Money, Murder sect
of Bloods was responsible for
most of the volume of heroin
drug sales in the valley.
Drugagents allegedtheorgani-
zation purchased 50 to100 bricks
of heroin – there are 50 heroin
packets in a brick – every two to
four days in Newark, N.J., and
New York City to sell in the
Wyoming Valley.
During Tuesday’s hearing,
Johnson’s lawyer, Mark Mack,
asked that bail be reduced to al-
lowJohnson to get a job and earn
some money for his family.
State Deputy Attorney Tim
Doherty did not object to lower
bail, asking that it not be reduced
below $500,000.
“From the evidence we gath-
ered, he has a high-level position
next to (Albert) Rosembert,” Do-
herty said, noting most of those
charged in Operation Bloodstain
are members of the Bloods, in-
cluding Johnson, who were in-
volved in shootings and robber-
ies in the area.
Rosembert was identified by
drug agents as the alleged ring
leader of thetraffickingcartel. He
is scheduled for a preliminary
hearing on March 30.
“I’ll drop it to $500,000, that’s
the bottom line. Good day,” Se-
nior District Judge AndrewBaril-
la said.

Fee drops in half to $500K for

Gas ordinance
called ‘precedent’
KINGSTON TWP. – A natural
gas and oil industry ordinance
proposed in Kingston Township
may be a “precedent” for the
area, said Supervisor James
Reino Jr.
The draft ordinance, which
the board of supervisors passed
at its meeting last Wednesday,
addresses natural gas drilling
and compressor stations and the
rules and regulations the indus-
try must follow to do business
in the township.
“It’s my personal belief that
the ordinance proposed is the
most extensive and may be a
precedent ordinance for gas
drilling,” said Reino.
He said the board looked at
other area natural gas ordinanc-
es, including those in the west-
ern part of the state, to combine
what supervisors deemed the
best aspects to the township.
Reino said the ordinance
covers drilling, compressor
stations, requirements for road
damage compensations, rules
and regulations that must be
followed before beginning work
in the area. He said the compa-
nies must work with township
engineers to videotape areas
before work begins to track
changes to land and roads.
Township Manager Kathleen
Sebastian said a draft will be
available for public inspection
by Monday in the municipal
building. A public hearing on
the matter will be held April 13
at the municipal building before
the next supervisors meeting.
In other business, the board
passed a subdivision for Brown
Manor located off of Carverton
Road that has been in dispute
for more than 30 years.
Reino said the existing devel-
opment never had legal approv-
al of a subdivision by a previous
board, and the subdivision ap-
proval applies to existing lots
and land that may be put up for
sale in the future.
“The developer was under the
instruction of the township not
to sell any land until it was
approved,” said Vice Chairman
Jeffrey Box.
The board also approved a
motion for the manager to re-
quest proposals for lawn mainte-
nance services for condemned
and abandoned properties. Re-
ino said that in the past the
township had worked with cer-
tain companies, but now the
township would like to open up
the bidding to the many other
lawn care services in the Back
Mountain.
The public hearing for the
drafted gas-and-oil-drilling ordi-
nance and the next supervisors’
meeting will be at 7:30 p.m.
April 13 in the municipal build-
ing.

Two grants to aid
West Side Trail
WEST WYOMING -- The
West Side Trail, which runs
through the boroughs of West
Wyoming, Wyoming, Exeter and
West Pittston, will be accessible
to a lot more people, thanks to
two grants the borough was
recently awarded.
A state Department of Com-
munity and Natural Resources
grant in the amount of $172,000
along with a Safe Routes to
School grant of $1,146,349 and
administered by PennDOT, was
awarded to the borough to de-
sign and construct an additional
1.42 additional miles of recre-
ational trail.
The project will link commu-
nity neighborhoods, three exist-
ing trails and trail heads, two
parks, the four aforementioned
municipalities, schools, histor-
ical sites and downtown shop-
ping districts. The DCNR grant
will pay for the replacement of
sidewalks, curbs and driveway
aprons that are cracked, crum-
bling or heaved up by trees and
provide handicapped accessibil-
ity where there is none.
The location for that part of
the project will run from the
south side of Eighth Street from
Charney Park to Route 11 and
the east side of Shoemaker
Avenue from Daily Park to
Eighth Street, said borough
engineer Mike Amato.
The Safe Routes to School
initiative will encourage parents
to walk their children to school,
said Karen Szwast, West Side
Trail project manager. The walk-
ing routes will lead to and from
Tenth Street Elementary School
in Wyoming, JFK Elementary
and the Wyoming Area Second-
ary Center, both in Exeter.
Since 2002, Exeter, West
Wyoming, Wyoming and West
Pittston have received more
than $2.1 million to fund the
entire West Side Trail project.
In other business, council
reminded residents that zoning
permits must be obtained
through the county for any new
construction or additions.
Also, council announced:
• Jason Berti was recognized
by Mayor Joseph Herbert and
council President Eileen Cipria-
ni last month for attaining the
rank of Eagle Scout.
• Anyone interested in volun-
teering for the fire police can
call Carl Worthington at (570)
362-3422 or attend an informa-
tional meeting today at Mar-
iannacci’s Restaurant in West
Wyoming at 7 p.m.
• Hose Co. No. 1 is holding
its annual ziti dinner on March
26 at the firehouse on Shoemak-
er Avenue. Tickets can be pur-
chased by calling (570) 693-
3660.

Insurance policy
payment approved
HANOVER TWP. – The com-
missioners approved some bills
for payment at their regular
monthly meeting Monday night.
Commissioners unanimously
approved a payment of $283,346
to Joseph J. Joyce Associates for
the 2011-12 insurance policy
renewal premiums. The policies
are effective March 24, 2010 to
March 24, 2011.
The overall cost is broken
down to $17,296 for property
and inland marine coverage,
$49,927 on general liability,
$36,585 for automobile and
$497 on crime. Workers’ com-
pensation cost is $179,041.
Past township commissioner
Frank Ciavarella questioned the
commissioners on the payment
and asked if the insurance was
put out for bid. He also wanted
to know when the contract was
approved and would expire.
Township Manager John
Sipper said that since Joyce
provides a professional service,
it did not require bidding. Joyce
bids the insurance coverage out
to three separate carriers and
then purchases the lowest one
for the township, he said.
Commissioner Brian McDer-
mott said he was unsure when
the contract was approved or
expires, but it was a three-year
contract. All the commissioners
did at the meeting was approve
the yearly payment, he said.
Vanessa Drive resident Ri-
chard Letoski also questioned
the commissioners on how
much the township pays for
debt each year. Commissioner
Ron Hummer said the township
will pay about $331,000 in debt
this year.
Sipper said the township is
scheduled to pay off its four
debt loans in 2013, 2015 and two
in 2017. He did not have the
total amount of debt available at
the meeting.
Sipper said the township
accrued the debt when it had to
repair the roof on the township
building, purchase a new fire
truck and absorb higher overall
operating costs. On top of that,
the township was already
maxed out on taxes, he said.
McDermott said the other
option was cutting services such
as police and public works, but
the commissioners did not want
to do that.
In other business, the com-
missioners:
• Approved a payment of
$12,234 to Reilly Associates for
engineering work on the Safe
Routes to School Project. The
project was funded by a
$200,000 federal grant, but the
township is responsible for all
engineering costs.
• Presented a proclamation to
resident Thomas Joseph Caffrey
for attaining the rank of Eagle
Scout.

Water run-off woes,
burn ban discussed
WARRIOR RUN -- Recent
water run-off onto properties on
Beaumont Street was discussed
at Monday night’s council meet-
ing.
Attorney James Pyra said his
research did not make it clear
whether the responsible party
was a resident or an estate.
He said that in order to pet-
ition the court for injunctive
relief, the owner of the property
must be identified. He said he
will do further research in the
matter and report back to coun-
cil at the next meeting.
Council also discussed a burn-
ing ban. Solicitor Joseph Yeager
said a burning ban ordinance
could apply to all types of burn-
ing, or the ban could specify
exceptions such as for camp
fires or small patio fires.
Council President Bob Dayli-
da suggested the present nui-
sance ordinance could also
apply to issues of open burning.
The council agreed to meet
after the regular session to dis-
cuss the burning ban ordinance
further.
Also, residents expressed
concern over the need for a stop
sign at the bottom of Front
Street, where children play.
Mayor James Brodginski said
Front Street is a state road and
the state would be asked to
place a sign at the bottom of the
hill.
Council will report the state’s
response to this request.
The next borough council
meeting is April 11 at 7 p.m.

MEETINGS
“Please do not go outside. Please
stay indoors. Please close windows
and make your homes airtight.”
Yukio Edano
Japan’s chief cabinet secretary urged residents in
the danger zone to take precautions earlier this
week as high levels of radiation leaked from a crippled nuclear plant in
the nation’s tsunami-ravaged northeastern region.
Education too important
to be hit by state cuts
W
ith the economy the way it is, cutting
costs is pretty much inevitable. How-
ever, the proposed state spending
cuts on education are ridiculous.
Education is an investment in our fu-
ture. Most good jobs in this country re-
quire a college degree, and we are falling
behind the way it is.
As a student at Penn State Wilkes-Barre,
this issue directly affects me. Costs for
college already have been rising. I want to
be able to get a degree in my field without
having to go into massive debt.
Cuts such as those proposed by the
governor only serve to make college less
attractive to prospective students and add
to the frustration of students already in
college. As a country, we need to get
ahead, and cutting education spending is
probably the last thing that will help us to
do so.
Education is a “must-have,” Governor
Corbett. I’m sure most of the perks you
and other elected officials in the state have
are “nice-to-haves.” How about if you cut
some of them?

Elected officials’ status
no pass to violate law
N
ow that self-inflated lawyer Al Flora
crowed that his client had “won” the
public corruption trial and would
prepare an appeal, let’s try to find common
sense and logic among the detritus of this
legal debacle.
Regarding former county judge Mark
Ciavarella and his love affair with the “Ben-
jamins,” a key question is the “special
obligation for public officials to comply
with the law,” as has been written.
The following information is excerpted
from the Institute for Local Government’s
article titled “When an Elected Official
Skirts the Law and Scandal Looms,” pub-
lished in 2005.
“This (special) obligation involves eth-
ical values of trustworthiness, responsib-
ility and fairness. A key aspect of the pub-
lic’s trust in government is the notion that
everyone is held to the same standards in
terms of law enforcement. …
“(The elected official’s colleagues) have
a responsibility to take steps to maintain
the public’s trust in the integrity of the
agency law enforcement efforts. …
“Elected officials sometimes get a mixed
message regarding their station in the
community,” the article states. “Constitu-
ents and those who do business in the area
can sometimes send the message that
elected officials occupy a special status by
treating them with special respect and
admiration. This status does not, however,
translate into a license to violate the law.”
Got that, Scooch?
The article continues: “Why? Central to
the notion of fairness and equality in our
political system is that everyone’s conduct
is held to the same standards. For those
who make laws the imperative to comply
with the laws is even more acute. How can
public officials encourage others to follow
the law when they themselves do not.”
How’s that, Mr. Michael Conahan?
The article also states: “What does it say
about the legitimacy of the act of law-
making if lawmakers themselves ignore
laws” for personal gain?
“The public’s trust in an official is prem-
ised on the notion that public officials will
set aside their self-interested inclinations
and promote the greater good. …
“As Henry Wadsworth Longfellow said,
‘It takes less time to do a thing right than
to explain why you did it wrong.’”
Federal guidelines notwithstanding, it is
hoped Mr. Ciavarella receives the maxi-
mum possible sentence, which would
ensure he receives punishment in kind that
reflects the content of this letter.

Middle class suffering
under GOP leadership
T
he mantra of “jobs” that we heard pre-
election and that swept tea party and
Republican puppets into office is no-
where to be seen.
House Speaker John Boehner answers
the budget crisis with loss of jobs as “so be
it,” while also cutting funding for poor
children and women.
As far as state budget deficits, it turns
out that Republican governors are going
after the middle-class union workers who
want to arbitrate, which is a right. The
governor of Wisconsin is skipping this
point and is attempting to end unions
altogether. It is as if the middle class alone
caused the deficit.
The truth of the matter is that teacher
gains in Wisconsin have gone hand in hand
with student success rates. Arbitration has
never contributed to the state deficit, and
Wisconsin leads other states in educational
achievement.
Once the facts are out there, one realizes
that the governor doesn’t know his state
and its strengths, and he is fighting ad-
vancement.

I
was extremely disappointed to read
about Wilkes-Barre School District Su-
perintendent Jeff Namey’s recent kow-
towing to local NAACP leader Ron Felton
at the last school board meeting.
Superintendent Namey needs to realize
that giving special preferences to black
teaching applicants is blatant anti-white
racial discrimination.
A standardized test should be adminis-
tered to ensure that there will be no racial
bias and that the brightest of prospective
teachers are hired. Excellence should be
the sole criteria for hiring teachers – pure

Hasty budget approval
backfires at Abington
A
t its Feb. 16 meeting the Abington
Heights School Board rushed to pass a
budget without knowing what cuts it
would face from the state and federal gov-
ernments. I said this act was irresponsible.
Nearly two weeks later, my concerns
have been realized: Gov. Tom Corbett’s
budget includes an estimated $1 million
cut to the district. Since the board passed
its budget without these facts, its budget
presumably will be deeply in the red.
At the board meeting, I spoke about how
the board needs to save money by cutting
its bloated administrative budget, not its
educational programs. I offered solutions
to maintain transitional first-grade and
emotional support classes, computer train-
ing at the elementary schools and librar-
ians in our high schools.
I ask the board to offer educationally
sound reasons for eliminating the above
programs. Convince the community that
these cuts will not hurt our children and
their futures. Convince the public that
their hastily passed budget against the
advice of the superintendent will not cause
even more cuts to educational programs.
Schools are established to educate chil-
dren; our board seems determined to dis-
mantle our educational excellence. Please
“keep Abington proud.”

HE PENNSYLVANIA
Legislatureis thelarge-
st body of its kind in
the nation, andthe sec-
ond most expensive to run.
But it doesn’t stop there. In
addition to doing less with
more, the Pennsylvania Legisla-
ture also insists upon zealously
guarding a slush fund worth
hundreds of millions of dollars.
The most recent audit, dating
to July, puts Pennsylvania’s leg-
islative surplus at about $188
million. The Legislature does
not sequester that money. It can
be shifted for use for a variety of
legislative purposes, a process
overseenbysmall committeesof
lawmakers who meet in secret.
The upshot, according to The
Associated Press, is that it’s im-
possible to tell which dollars
paid for which expenditure, be-
cause the Legislature simply
blends its surplus with the rest
of themoneyit receives inabud-
get year.
At $188 million, we’re talking
about threetimes themoneythe
state intends to spend this year
on public libraries. Lawmakers
say the surplus offers insurance
against losing their funding dur-
ing a budget battle with the gov-
ernor.
But for the 2011-12 fiscal year,
we’re looking at billions in bud-
get cuts. If ever there was a time
for the Legislature to lead by ex-
ample, to use its surplus to save
a few families – this is it.
Furthermore, a protracted
ideological spat between the
Legislature and Gov. Tom Cor-
bett is highly unlikely. They’re
all on the same page, which
makes supporters’ primary justi-
fication for the surplus entirely
moot.
Unfortunately, our leaders
don’t seem very interested in
leading by example.
At the very least, a lawmaker
should propose that the legisla-
tive surplus cannot be intermin-
gled with other revenue just to
pay the bills.

RAVO TO THE city
boosters striving to
make Wilkes-Barre’s
downtown more dy-
namic by introducing a new
bike lending program, supply-
ing free pedals to people who
want to tour the place at a lei-
surely pace.
The bike share program, set
to begin in mid-April, initially
will operate out of the Genetti
Hotel &Conference Center, on
Market Street. The
“fleet” includes
about a dozen no-
frills, three-speed bi-
cycles.
Chances are, no
one will want to steal
one of these mun-
dane models froman
inattentive user; just
in case, borrowers
will have compli-
mentary use of a bike lock. And
helmet, too. Participants ages
16 and up will be required to
show photo identification and
sign a waiver before riding
away on a loaner.
A bit of Jersey boardwalk-
like bike traffic near Public
Square andthe Riverfront Park
will help to enliven the city’s
hub, still wrongly perceived by
certain people as “CSI”-dan-
gerous and utterly derelict.
European plaza, it’s not. But
adults, whether out-of-towners
or natives, will discover that by
opting for low-tech locomo-
tion, they can gain a new per-
spective on the city’s offerings.
Spot an overlooked bed and
breakfast, a startupbusiness or
restaurant. Eyeball the win-
dow displays of retail spaces
such as Art Seen Gallery. Find
a favorite flower bed along the
levee or tucked between state-
lyoffices. Ogle the architecture
of a church or synagogue.
The Wilkes-Barre Bike Share
Program, if sustained, could
serve as a small
way to get larger
things – outlooks,
entrepreneurial
plans andenergy –
rolling again.
Imagine how the
urban ambiance
might change
here if other in-
trepid folks en-
tered the mix:
more café-style sidewalk seat-
ing, pushcart vendors with soft
pretzels and drinks, riverside
paddleboat/kayak rentals and
kite sales at Kirby Park.
Sure, a stroll in mid-city
Wilkes-Barre might never rival
San Antonio’s River Walk or
the scenery along the river
Seine. But we have something
special that, with more effort,
can surely shine.
As French novelist Marcel
Proust said, “The real voyage
of discovery consists not in
seeking new landscapes but in
having new eyes.”

Commission representatives
wanted assurances that CityVest
had exhausted attempts to pre-
serve the structure, and the non-
profit informed the state that it
has been unable to find a private
investor to develop and renovate
the structure, Pollman said.
Renovation costs have been
estimated at $100 million be-
cause the project includes a new
high-rise to the rear of the origi-
nal hotel.
“They have been investigating
other preservation alternatives,
but they just have not panned
out,” Pollman said.
CityVest, known as a develop-
er of “last resort,” acquired the
property from a back-tax sale in
2002, announcing plans to re-
store the property and fill it with
a mix of condominiums and
shops.
County Commissioner Ste-
phen A. Urban said CityVest ex-
ecutive director Alex Rogers in-
formed him several months ago
about the likelihood of the Hotel
Sterling demolition. Urban said
he is willing to publicly discuss
what was said now that the state
commission verified it has been
notified.
Urban said Rogers told him a
developer concluded it would
not be cost-effective to rehabil-
itate the building because of its
advanced deterioration. The
roof is in poor condition and
many areas of the building have
low ceiling heights that are not
conducive to new development,
Urban said.
The building has been vacant
since 1998.
CityVest wants the county’s
Community Development Office
to provide about $1 million to
demolish the structure, Urban
said.
“I believe there’s a consensus
among commissioners that if we
provide money to bring the
property down, we then want
site control,” Urban said, ques-
tioning whether Wilkes-Barre
elected officials have done
enough to assist CityVest in mar-
keting the property.
Urban said CityVest should
step aside after demolition be-
cause the Hotel Sterling proper-
ty faces the county’s revamped
River Common park along the
Susquehanna River, which
would make it prime real estate,
not a project of “last resort.”
The county would then publi-
cly seek proposals from private
developers who are willing to
purchase and develop the site
with their own funds, he said.
The county could return mon-
ey from the land sale to the
county Community Develop-
ment Office to recoup some of
the nearly $6 million in county
funding that has been invested
in the project to date, Urban
said.
The project also received $1
million in federal and $3 million
in state funding, officials have
said.
The county community devel-
opment money was used to pur-
chase the building, demolish a
deteriorated structure to the
rear of the hotel and remove as-
bestos from the original seven-
story hotel, Urban said.
The property is about 3/4 of
an acre, according to county
property records.
“The site has a lot of potential,
and we need to think big on this
project – not let it get tied up in
the hands of local people for
their own personal gain,” Urban
said. “Our goal should be attract-
ing private dollars.”
Rogers declined to discuss
anything about demolition on
Tuesday.
CityVest is wrapping up a
study of the Sterling’s structural
condition and limitations and
the site’s potential and will be
sharing the results with county
and city officials in the near fu-
ture, Rogers said.
Rogers said the visit to the
state Historical and Museum
Commission was made as part of
that study.
The Hotel Sterling was once
considered the city’s most luxu-
rious hotel, with 450 rooms,
three restaurants, 15 private
rooms and three ballrooms.
Guests included movie stars
and well-known politicians, such
as President Richard M. Nixon
and Gov. John Fine.

an already edgy Japan after Fri-
day’s massive earthquake and
tsunami that is estimatedtohave
killed more than 10,000 people.
Hajimi Motujuku, a spokes-
man for Tokyo Electric Power, or
TEPCO, said the outer housing
of the containment vessel at the
No. 4 unit at the complex caught
fire.
On Tuesday, a fire broke out in
the same reactor’s fuel storage
pond — an area where used nu-
clear fuel is kept cool — causing
radioactivity to be released into
theatmosphere. TEPCOsaidthe
new blaze erupted because the
initial fire had not been fully ex-
tinguished.
About three hours after the
blaze erupted Wednesday, Ja-
pan’s nuclear safety agency said
flames couldnolonger be seenat
Unit 4. But it was unable to con-
firm that the blaze had been put
out, and clouds of white smoke
were billowing from the reactor,
accordingtolive videofootage of
the plant.
Also Wednesday, Japan’s nu-
clear safety agency said 70 per-
cent of the nuclear fuel rods may
have been damaged at another
Fukushima Dai-ichi reactor that
was first stricken last week, trig-
gering the crisis.
“But we don’t knowthe nature
of the damage, and it could be ei-
ther melting, or there might be
some holes in them,” said an
agency spokesman, Minoru Oh-
goda.
Japan’s national news agency,
Kyodo, said33percent of the fuel
rods at a second reactor were al-
so damaged.
Thetroubles havebeencaused
by overheating of the reactors,
which have lost their cooling
ability because of damage to
equipment from the earthquake
and tsunami. Excessive heating
will lead to a meltdown of the re-
actor and release hazardous radi-
ation.
Engineers are desperately try-
ingtocool the reactors andspent
fuel rods after the electricity was
cut off in the wake of the quake,
shutting down their cooling
functions.
Boric acid is “important be-
cause it captures radiation and
helps prevent radiation from
leaking,” said Nishimura, the
safety agency spokesman.
But it melted away steel when
it was used repeatedly at a trou-
bled Ohio nuclear plant.
Nishimura said the govern-
ment had also ordered the utility
company to immediately spray
water on Unit 4.
Both units1and 3 have no roof
after earlier blasts, making it
easy to dump water onto them,
he said. Unit 4 has holes in the
building, which allowed fire
trucks to spray water inside.
Radiation levels in areas
around the nuclear plant rose
early Tuesday afternoon but ap-
peared to subside by evening, of-
ficials said. But the unease re-
mained in a country trying to re-
cover fromthe massive disasters
that are believed to have killed
more than10,000 people andbat-
tered the world’s third-largest
economy. Officials have only
confirmed about 3,300 deaths.
The radiation leak caused the
government to order 140,000
people living within 20 miles of
the plant to seal themselves in-
doors to avoid exposure, and au-
thorities declared a ban on com-
mercial air traffic through the ar-
ea. Worries about radiation rip-
pled through Tokyo and other
areas far beyond that cordon.
The stock market plunged for a
second straight day, dropping 10
percent Tuesday. However, the
market soared more than 6 per-
cent in Wednesday morning
trading.
The re-emergence of the fire at
the spent fuel pond in Unit 4
makes that “my biggest worry”
because “the spent fuel pool real-
ly doesn’t have any containment
over it and it’s very exposed,”
saidMeshkati. “There is radioac-
tive fuel that could cause some
problems.”

radiation levels, the commander
recommended as a precaution
that military personnel and their
families at the two bases, Yokosu-
ka and Naval Air Facility Atsugi,
limit their outdoor activities and
seal ventilation systems at their
homes as much as possible.
At the White House Tuesday,
spokesman Jay Carney said that
unlike some other countries the
U.S. was not recommending that
American citizens leave Tokyo
over radiation concerns.
Tokyo is about 170 miles from
the nuclear plant and slightly ele-
vated radiation levels were re-
ported in the capital, but Japa-
nese officials said the increase
was too small to threaten the 39
million people in and around the
city.
Nonetheless, Austria said it is
moving its embassy from Tokyo
toOsaka andFrancerecommend-
ed that its citizens leave the Japa-
nese capital.
Carney said that U.S. officials
have determined American citi-
zens in Japan should follow the
same guidance Japan is giving to
its own citizens. The Japanese
government has warned people
within 20 miles of the nuclear re-
actor complex damaged in the
earthquake and tsunami to stay
indoors to avoid exposure, but of-
ficials have said radiation levels
in Tokyo didn’t represent a
threat.
The U.S. embassy in Tokyo has

LOS ANGELES — As dozens
of aftershocks continuedtorattle
Japan, scientists said Tuesday
they were worried that Friday’s
magnitude 9.0 temblor might
trigger a dangerous earthquake
close to Tokyo, the largest urban
center in the world.
The fear is that the initial
quake and the series of large af-
tershocks that follow will trans-
fer geophysical stresses into
nearby faults, causing some near
Tokyo to shift violently, said Mi-
chael Wysession, a seismologist
at Washington University, St.
Louis.
Already, the pattern of after-
shocks in Japan appears to be
shifting southward from waters
off the coast of Sendai to Tokyo,
which is 231 miles away. On
Tuesday night local time, a mag-
nitude 6.2 quake struck near Shi-
zuoka, 72 miles southwest of the
Japanese capital.
That quake “upped the ante”
for Tokyo, said Thomas Jordan,
director of the Southern Califor-
nia Earthquake Center at the
University of Southern Califor-
nia.
Concerns about the quake risk
in the Tokyo metropolitan area
— home to 32.5 million people
— seem to arise from multiple
sources.
First, large earthquakes like
the one that struck near Sendai
last week spawn hundreds of af-
tershocks along nearby faults
and plate boundaries. Some of
these aftershocks can be power-
ful in their own right. In Japan,
aftershocks have been as high as
7.1.
Second, Tokyo is situated at
what’s known as a “triple junc-
tion,” a place where three tecton-
ic plates —inthis case, the Pacif-
ic, the Philippine and the Eur-
asian plates — come together.
Suchbusyintersections areoften
seismically active and “tend to
produce a lot of fracturing and
breaking off of stuff,” said Ross
Stein, a U.S. Geological Service
geophysicist in Menlo Park.
“Tokyo is in the center of ev-
erything, and it’s pathologically
locatedinharm’s way,” he added.
And then there’s the fact that
this week’s aftershocks “seem to
bemigratingfromSendai toward
Tokyo,” said John Rundle, a seis-
mologist at the University of Cal-
ifornia, Davis .
In 2008, a study that assessed
the seismic risk in Tokyo con-
cludedthe city faces a 30 percent
chance of a quake with shaking
as intense as that felt inSendai in
the next 30 years.
Friday’s quake appears to have
“slightly increased the stresses
on faults around Tokyo,” said
Stein, who led the study. Still, he
emphasized that exactly what it
might herald is unclear.
Since the 1970s, seismologists
have been anticipating a Big One
of at least a magnitude 8.0 that
could have devastating conse-
quences for Tokyo. They already
have a name for it: the Tokai
quake.
But the Japan Meteorological
Agency said Tuesday that the
Shizuoka aftershock was not di-
rectly related to Tokai, said Shin-
ji Toda, a geologist at Kyoto Uni-
versity who has worked closely
with Stein. The Shizuoka after-
shock was a strike-slip quake,
and the Tokai quake would be a
megathrust quake, Toda said.
Scientists noted that predict-
ing earthquake activity was al-
ways a tricky business. “We have
an incredible habit of being
wrong,” Stein said.
Tokyo-area quake risk rises, say scientists
Pattern of aftershocks seems
to be shifting from waters off
coast of Sendai to the capital.

IF CHAMPIONSHIP WEEKis
predictive of what is going to
play out fromTuesday in Dayton
to the first Monday of April in
Houston, there is every chance
this NCAA Tournament could
render all conventional wisdom
moot.
In the 30 conference tourna-
ments, only eight outright league
champions were also able to win
the tournament championships.
They were: Belmont (Atlantic
Sun); Long Island (Northeast);
Oakland (Summit); Utah State
(Western Athletic); Bucknell
(Patriot); Northern Colorado
(Big Sky); Kansas (Big12); and
Ohio State (Big Ten). Butler
(Horizon) and Gonzaga (West
Coast) tied for the regular season
and won tournaments.
Just on Saturday, the Pac-10
(Washington) and Ivy (Prince-
ton) automatic bids were decid-
ed on buzzer-beaters. Four other
Saturday title games were decid-
ed in the final seconds. Memphis
led UTEP for exactly seven sec-
onds in the Conference USA title
game, the final seven seconds.
The point is that, in an era
with fewer true powers than ever
before, one who looks beyond
the obvious is likely to have the
most success filling out the ex-
panded, 68-teambracket and
finding the most winners of the
67 games that will start with the
“First Four” in Dayton Tuesday
and Wednesday.
The “First Four” concept will
include doubleheaders with what
the tournament selection com-
mittee determined were the final
four at-large teams and the weak-
est four teams in the bracket.
UAB will take on Clemson in
Tuesday’s at-large game after 16
seeds UNC-Asheville and Arkan-
sas-Little Rock play. Wednesday’s
doubleheader will be at-large
teams Southern Cal and Virginia
Commonwealth and16 seeds
Texas San-Antonio and Alabama
State.
The winner of the Tuesday
at-large game will enter the 64-
teambracket and play West
Virginia. The Wednesday winner
will play Georgetown.
The four No. 1 seeds were no
great surprise. Ohio State (East)
was the No. 1 overall seed, fol-
lowed by Kansas (Southwest),
Pittsburgh (Southeast) and Duke
(West). The regional sites are
Newark, San Antonio, NewOr-
leans and Anaheim.
Villanova may have finished its
season with five consecutive
losses, but the Wildcats’ six top
50 wins were sufficient to get
themin the field. No. 9 seed
’Nova will play No. 8 George
Mason in Cleveland on Friday. If
the ’Cats win, they will play the

nova is in the East region.
Temple did not fourpeat in the
Atlantic 10. The Owls, down two
starters, still had another terrific
season. They got a No. 7 seed
and will play No. 10 Penn State
in Tucson, Ariz., on Thursday. If
the Owls win, they will play No.

Northern Colorado. Temple is in
the West region.
The Big East, as had been
expected for months, got a re-
cord11 teams, including10 of the
37 at-large berths.
The four leagues with Philly
ties (Big East, A-10, Ivy, Coloni-
al) have a total of 18 teams in the
tournament.
The CAA did a great job of
nonconference scheduling. Its
teams won a bunch of those
games. VCUwas rewarded for
that.
Even with three more at-large
spots, there are still a fewun-
happy coaches out there. The
final fewteams left out appeared
to be Virginia Tech (poor Seth

Penn State opens spring prac-
tice Saturday witha wealthof ex-
perience in its back seven on de-
fense. How the defense shapes
up in the fall will likely depend
onlinebacker Michael Mauti and
safety Nick Sukay.
Mauti is lookingat another po-
sition switch and Sukay is com-
ing off of major surgery.
LINEBACKERS
Heading into spring ball, Mau-
ti is set to move back to inside li-
nebacker after spendingthe 2010
campaign on the outside. The
rest of thecorps will formaround
the Lions’ most talented tackler.
“I will play middle linebacker
in the spring,” Mauti, a Louisia-
na native, told NewOrleans.com
this month. “I played strong-side
in 2010. I like the middle more. I
like the thinking and making the
calls. I want to be making the
calls on defense in the huddle.
That’s the spot. You’re involved
in every play.”
When Mauti tore an ACL dur-
ing fall practice in 2009, he was
working in the middle and had
been expected to share snaps
with the first team. So the rising
junior has experience on the in-
side.
By making that move, Penn
State should be able to field a ve-
ry athletic group of starting line-
backers with Nate Stupar and
Gerald Hodges the two favorites
to flank Mauti.
Regardless of who starts
where, Penn State figures to im-
prove at the position despite the
graduation of two starters in
Chris Colasanti and Bani Gba-
dyu, both of whom had disap-
pointing senior campaigns.
As always, Penn State’s depth
should make for some interest-
ing competition. A pair of prom-
ising freshmen, Khairi Fortt and
Glenn Carson cracked the two-

BETHLEHEM – Dominant with the big man.
Determined without him.
And onward to where no Holy Redeemer boys
basketball team has ever ventured.
Pete Alexis scoreda game-high26 points – de-
spite sitting out most of the second quarter – as
the Royals defeated Philadel-
phia Electrical & Technology
61-50 in a PIAA Class 3A sec-
ond-round game at Freedom

against District 3 champion
Lancaster Catholic (28-1) at a

nals. Lancaster Catholic defeated D11champion
Allentown Central Catholic 70-56.
It will be the first time the Royals play in the
state quarterfinals in their four years of exist-
ence.
“It’s unbelievable,” Redeemer coach Mark Be-
lenski said. “Our goal coming in four years ago
when the school first started was to get as far as
we can. And each year we’ve progressed. To-
night we got one game farther that last year.”
It came at the expense of PET Charter, which
became the first District 12 team to lose a state

Tuesday’s game against PET Charter.
BETHLEHEM– Austin Carr was just being
honest when asked about the feeling of seeing
6-foot-11 teammate Pete Alexis whistled for
his thirdfoul early inthe thirdquarter of Tues-
day night’s state playoff game.
“I’m not going to lie to you, I got really
scared when Pete got in foul trouble,” said
Carr.
The Redeemer senior guard didn’t need to
be.
Alexis played smart and his teammates
picked up the slack several times during the
game, a 61-50 win by the Royals against Phila-
delphia Electrical & Technology Charter.
Alexis finished with a game-high 26 points,
despite playing most of the second half with
three personal fouls.
The Penn State-bound center picked up his
second foul just 18 seconds into the second
quarter with Redeemer holding a 20-7 lead.
“It’s a huge killer, just sitting there on the
bench,” said Alexis. “There’s nothing you can
do but sit there and watch. But I trust my
teammates and they did a great job.”
Freshman center Mike Prociak held down
the inside, while guards Austin Carr, Steve
Ruch and Tim Lambert took care of the bas-
ketball andhelpeda patient offense milksome
minutes off the clock.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. — They’re
on back-to-back pages in the Sy-
racuse media guide. On their tip-
toes, they would be more than14
feet tall together. And their arm-
spans seemingly could extend
across the entire baseline.
As Syracuse (26-7) prepares
for its NCAA tournament opener
against Missouri Valley Confer-
ence champion Indiana State
(20-13) on Friday, coach JimBoe-
heim is counting on his two
freshman centers — the impos-
ing 7-foot Fab Melo and wiry 6-10
Baye Moussa Keita —to ease the
load in the middle of the Or-
ange’s signature 2-3 zone de-
fense.
Be big on the big stage.
“Having those two big guys is
huge,” junior guard Scoop Jar-
dine said. “For Baye and Fab to
play well is going to help us be-
cause we need them bad. We
need both of our big men.”
Ayear ago, Boeheim’s hopes of
reaching a fourth Final Four van-
ished when bruising center
Arinze Onuaku crashed to the
Madison Square Garden floor
with a career-ending knee injury
during a loss to Georgetown in
the Big East tournament.
A No. 1seed in the 2010 NCAA
tournament, Syracuse was forced
to play power forward Rick Jack-
son and raw freshman DaShonte
Riley at center. The Orange
made it past Vermont and Gon-
zaga, then bowed to Butler in the
round of 16 as Jackson struggled
to carry so much of the extra load
that deep in the season.
The Orange, seeded third this
year in the East, are ready to
make good on the team’s season-
long theme of “Unfinished busi-
ness.”
Jackson, whose offseason
training and revised diet trans-
formed his body and stamina,
leads the way with 17 double-
doubles and is averaging a team-
high 35.4 minutes. He expects
plenty of help from the 245-
pound Melo and 213-pound Kei-
ta, who have combined to aver-
age 25 minutes a game.
“Right now they’re playing
good,” Jackson said. “Fab really
came alive inthe Big East tourna-
ment. If he’s playing like that, I
think we’ll go far. He’s getting his
confidence and Baye did a great
job all year for us. I think with
those two big guys, just keep ro-
tating them and we’ll be fine.”
Indiana State coachGreg Lans-
ing, whose Sycamores have won
five in a row, already has cast a
wary eye.
“They’ve got some guys who
can cover some ground,” said
Lansing, in his first season at In-
diana State. “We haven’t seen a
lot of zone. It can paralyze you.
You can’t just stand around.
When you get an open look, it’s
not going to be there long.”
Boeheim tabbed Melo, a
McDonald’s All-American at Sa-
gemont High School in Florida
and preseason Big East rookie of
the year, as his starter even
though Keita had impressed
more in preseason practice.

INDIANAPOLIS — Second-
best just won’t cut it for Butler
this year.
Last year’s NCAA tournament
darlings and defending runner-
ups are back with an even bigger
goal: Winning the whole darn
thing.
“You don’t come in looking to
winone game or tomake it tothe
Sweet 16,” senior guard Zach
Hahn said Tuesday. “Our goal is
to play in Houston at the end of
the tournament.”
Clearly, this is not the same
team that captured America’s
hearts withits Final Four runand
came withina half-court heave of
beating Duke in the title game.
Gordon Hayward left after his
sophomore season for the NBA.
Avery Jukes and defensive stop-
per Willie Veasley graduated.
Point guard Ronald Nored has
been replaced in the starting li-
neup by senior Shawn Vanzant.
But there are plenty of similar-
ities.
The Bulldogs still rely on lock-
down defense, taking care of the
basketball and making 3-point-
ers. They still have undersized
forward Matt Howard leading
the charge inside and Shelvin
Macktakingcare of things onthe
perimeter.
And like last year, college bas-
ketball analysts are already writ-
ing off Butler.
Many believe Old Dominion
(27-6), the Colonial Athletic As-
sociation champion, will use its
rebounding prowess and “home-
court” advantage to knock out
the Bulldogs (23-9) in Thurs-
day’s game in Washington. A
year ago, many experts called
UTEP the trendy first-round up-
set pick. Butler won that one 77-
59.
Last year, Butler entered the
tourney on a 20-game winning
streak after claiming both the
Horizon League regular-season
and tourney titles. This time, the
Bulldogs won nine straight to
earnashareof theregular-season
league crown, the tourney cham-
pionship and a school-record
fifth straight NCAA bid.
And they’ve done it the same
way —by holding10 straight op-
ponents to fewer than 70 points
and half of those to less than 60.
Coach Brad Stevens calls it a
winning formula.
“I think this teamis playing its
best basketball at theright time,”
he said. “It took some time to be-
comea goodteamat bothends of
the floor, but the commitment
has always been there and now
we’re back where we want to be.
The (Butler) teams that have
done the best in the NCAA tour-
nament have played their best at
the end of the season, so I feel
good about it.”
That’s not good news for Old
Dominion or anyone else in the
Southeast Region because But-
ler just spent anentire seasongo-
ing through what amounted to
an NCAA tourney-type environ-
ment.
They were the feature attrac-
tion at every venue in the Hori-
zonLeague. Valparaiso fans even
rushed the floor in late January
after an 85-79 overtime win. And
the Bulldogs served as either the
model or target everywhere they
went.

DAYTON, Ohio — Matt
Dickey and the Bulldogs were
quite an opening act on the
NCAA tournament’s expanded
stage, one that has more teams
in the brackets and — so far —
the same March drama on the
court.
Dickey led a late run that
brought overtime, and J.P.
Primm hit five free throws and
had a decisive steal in the clos-
ing seconds, sending UNC
Asheville to an 81-77 victory
over Arkansas-Little Rock in a
dramatic “First Four” opener on
Tuesday night.
“I’ll tell you what, I couldn’t
be happier with the city of
Dayton,” coach Eddie Bieden-
bach said.
There wasn’t time for a cur-
tain call. The Bulldogs (20-13)
quickly headed to the airport
for a charter flight to Washing-
ton, D.C., where they’ll play
Pittsburgh — the Southeast’s
top seed — on Thursday. The
Bulldogs had never flown a
charter before this week, and
joked they felt “presidential” on
their trip to Dayton.
“We’re going to feel presi-
dential again, and we’re going
to D.C.,” Primm said. “So it’s
going to feel even better.”
UNC Asheville pulled it out
with a tournament-worthy
performance by its best player.
The Bulldogs led for only 51
seconds in regulation, before
Dickey asserted himself. He
scored 14 of the Bulldogs’ last
18 points in regulation, includ-
ing a 3 with 10.5 seconds to go
that tied it.
Dickey, who was the Big
South tournament’s MVP, took
only two shots in the first half.
“I came in at halftime and
they kept telling me to keep
being aggressive, my shots will
start falling,” Dickey said. “I
started getting open looks, my
shot started falling and it felt
good.”
Primm and Dickey had 22
points apiece.
Clemson 70, UAB 52
DAYTON, Ohio — Jerai
Grant scored a career-best 22
points and fast-starting Clem-
son built a double-figure lead
and never backed off in beating
Alabama-Birmingham in an
NCAA First Four game at the
University of Dayton Arena.
In a matchup of No. 12 seeds,
the Tigers (22-11) went on a
21-2 run in the first half and
never let the big lead slip away,
as they had in several recent
games.
Clemson hurried out after the
game to catch a flight to a sec-
ond-round game against fifth-
seeded West Virginia (20-11) on
Thursday afternoon in Tampa,
Fla.

lege, Colorado, Saint Mary’s and
Alabama.
This is the first tournament
under the newtelevision con-
tract with CBS and Turner
Sports. Each of the 67 games will
be live on CBS, TNT, TBS or
truTV.
If you are looking to take risks
in your bracket, you need not
look at 15 and16 seeds. The 16
seeds are 0-104. The 15s are
4-100. Since the start of the 64-
teambracket in1985, a No. 1
seed has won the championship
16 times.
The six BCS leagues got 30 of
the at-large bids. The others
went to the Mountain West
(two), A-10 (two), CAA (two)
and Conference USA (one).
The best stories are fromnow
until Sunday. The best basketball
is played on the second weekend.
Then, everybody catches his
breath and a college basketball
championship is decided in a
football stadium; this year that
would be Reliant Stadiumin
Houston.
After finishing a great run at
Villanova as Jay Wright’s top
sidekick on the 2009 Final Four
team, Pat Chambers got the head
job at Boston University. Last
season, BUmade the America
East championship game and
lost to Vermont. This season, BU
got the championship game on
its home court and after trailing
Stony Brook by 15 points in the
second half, stormed back to win
the championship by two points.
Chambers has an all-Philly staff,
including Brian Daly (Saint
Joseph’s) and AdamFisher
(Penn State). He also has the
league’s best player, John Hol-
land, who scored 23 of his 27
points in the second half and
won it with two late free throws.
As a reward, the Terriers get to
play Kansas.
There is the Tad Boyle factor.
The first-year Colorado coach
looked like he would have his
fingerprints on two teams in the
bracket. The Buffs, a big-confer-
ence teamwithout any tradition,
have a lottery pick in Alec Burks.
They beat Kansas State three
times. However, their weak non-
conference schedule apparently
doomed themwith the commit-
tee. Boyle took Northern Col-
orado into Division I in 2006-07.
In that first season, they finished
4-24 and dead last (336) in the
RPI. This season, under Boyle’s
former assistant, B.J. Hill, North-
ern Colorado won the Big Sky.
And there is Jimmer and his
2,500 points. Did you see himgo
off for 52 Friday night? That was
ridiculous.
Still, there are some who won-
der about BYUand San Diego
State. Not sure why. SDS finally
beat BYUand got the Mountain
West championship. The Cou-
gars certainly will miss suspend-
ed big man Brandon Davies. The
two teams are a combined 62-6,
including 22-2 on the road. And
three of the losses were to each
other.
Connecticut may not win the
national championship, but one
could make a case the Huskies
just did something more diffi-
cult. They won five games in five
days to get the Big East cham-
pionship, finishing it off by beat-
ing Pittsburgh, Syracuse and
Louisville over the final three
days. Kemba Walker dominated
just about every moment he was
on the court.
Got to love Mid-American
champ Akron. The Zips blocked
15 Kent State shots in the cham-
pionship game, including the
final two, either of which would
have won the title for Kent.

The Holy Redeemer girls bas-
ketball team is fresh off last Sat-
urday’s 37-33 win over Gettys-
burg in the opening round of the
PIAA Class 3A State Tourna-
ment -- perhaps the biggest win
in the four-year history of the
school.
That’s the good news for the
Royals and their fans.
The bad news – up next is
reigning state champion Arch-
bishop Wood at 6 p.m. today at
Parkland High School in Ore-
field near Allentown in the sec-
ond round of the state playoffs.
Holy Redeemer coach Rich
Nemetz is thrilled that his team
is still riding a high after upset-
ting Gettysburg, but he didn’t
sugar coat anything when eval-
uating the Royals chances of
pulling off another upset against
the Vikings (23-4).
“They’re the defending state
champions and have 14 of 15
girls returning. They’re a team
without a weakness. We’ll have
to play a near-perfect game to
beat them.”
Archbishop Wood, the Dis-
trict 12 champion, advanced to
the second round with an im-
pressive 67-33 victory over Sus-
quehanna Township. The Vik-
ings are the champions of the
tough Philadelphia Catholic
League.
“They’ve been together for
the last three years,” Nemetz
said. “They don’t play anything
close to what we do. They go out
of state and play some top notch
teams.”
Archbishop Wood is led by se-
nior guard Stephanie Keyes,
who tossed in four three-point
shots inthe winover Susquehan-
na Township. Keyes is the Vik-
ings leading scorer, averaging 14
points.
“One of their greatest
strengths is balance,” Nemetz
said. “The other four starters av-
erage about 11 points each, and
they have excellent depth. They
have about nine kids who see a
lot of playing time.”
The Vikings also have a couple
of standouts in Jenna Swopes
and Taylor Kaminski.
“Swopes can play inside or
outside, and she’s an excellent
three-point shooter,” said Ne-
metz. “Kaminski is a very versa-
tile player and likes to drive to
the basket.”
What concerns Nemetz the
most about Archbishop Wood is
its fierce offensive rebounding,
strong defense and unselfish-
ness.
“It’s not unusual for them to
get three or four straight offen-
sive rebounds. When they have
the ball, they look for each other.
There’s just no room to cheat on
defense.”
Holy Redeemer (19-7), the
District 2 runner-up, is led by se-
nior guard Olivia Francisco. She
hit the game-winning three
pointer against Gettysburg. She
was 0-for-8 from the field before
converting the most important
shot of the game.
“Olivia is always our go-to
player,” Nemetz said. “At the
end of the game, she always
wants the ball. She always has
the green light to shoot.”
One of the Royals unsung
players is 5-6 junior point guard
Julia Wignot, who is their quar-
terback on the floor. Wignot av-
erages five points and has a spe-
cial knack of finding the open
player.
“From day one, she has been
our top defensive player, along
with Olivia,” Nemetz added. “Ju-
lia has done a great job of shut-
ting down the other team’s lead-
ing scorer.”
Redeemer also has a strong
front line in 6-foot sophomore
center Sydney Myers and 5-11se-
nior forwards Nicole Maximow-
icz and Allison Capaci.
Nemetz expects the Vikings to
come out with fire in their eyes.
“They like to press and jump
and run. They remind me of the
great Council Rock team in the
late 90s that was ranked No. 1 in
the state.”

SAFETIES
Much will depend on the sta-
tus of Sukay, who was off to a
great start last season before a
torn pectoral sidelined him for
the year.
But Malcolm Willis stepped in
and exceeded expectations. De-
spite being only a redshirt fresh-
man, Willis didn’t look out of
place and would be running with
the first teamthis spring if Sukay
isn’t 100 percent.
Still, it seems unlikely that Wil-
lis would start ahead of a healthy
Sukay or Drew Astorino, who
have started together for the past
two seasons despite battling inju-
ries.
Willis’ emergence does soften
the blow from the likely depar-
ture of AndrewDailey, who is ex-
pectedto forego his fifthandfinal
season of eligibility.
CORNERBACKS
D’Anton Lynn is an obvious
slam dunk to start for a third
straight season. Joe Paterno’s
preferred zone schemes don’t al-
lowfor Penn State corners to put
upimpressivenumbers, but Lynn
has developed into one of the
team’s most reliable players.
What is up for debate is who
will start opposite himin the fall.
The Lions alternated between
Stephon Morris and Chaz Powell
after the latter made yet another
position switch midway through
last season. Both are expected to
compete for the job again this
year.
Morris was unspectacular be-
fore getting yanked in favor of Po-
well midway through the cam-
paign, but Powell found himself
back on the bench at the bowl
game.
Depth is certainly a concern,
especially with the status of Der-
rick Thomas up in the air. Tho-
mas carved out a spot in the nick-
el package at the start of last sea-
son before being suspended in-
definitely from the team.
The rising sophomore looks to
beontracktoreturntothesquad,
and his return would create a
much-needed cushion.

AT A G L A N C E
playoff game to a Wyoming Val-
ley Conference opponent since
the Philadelphia public schools
joined the PIAA for the 2004-05
school year. The Chargers ended
their season at 23-6.
The 6-foot-11 Alexis showed
early he was going to be a force
as he scored the game’s first sev-
en points. Guard Tim Lambert
added a couple three-pointers
and forward Steve Ruch hit a
buzzer-beating three from NBA
range to push the Royals’ advan-
tage to 20-7 after the first quar-
ter.
“I noticed they were doubling
down on Pete,” Lambert said.
“Most teams leave me open a lot
because they know I’m not the
top threat to score. When I get
the open shot, if I make my first
one I’m going to make the next
couple ones.”
Alexis had nine points in the
first quarter, but the Penn State
recruit sat out all but 18 seconds
of the secondafter pickinguphis
secondfoul. PETmanagedtocut
the deficit to 24-17 inhis absence
until reserve junior guard Ryan
DeRemer hit a baseline drive to
end the half.
“It was killing me,” Alexis
said. “Anytime I have to sit on
thebenchfor anextendedperiod
of time, it kills me inside. I love
playing the game, I love being on
the floor.”
PETCharter preferred himoff
it because once he returned in
the third, the Royals were able to
regain a double-digit lead.
And that 40-29 advantage en-
teringthe fourthcame via a third
consecutive buzzer-beating bas-
ket. Senior guard Austin Carr
supplied it, firing fromthe top of
the key well beyond the arc.
While Redeemer seemed to
connect from just about any-
where, the same couldn’t be said
for PET Charter.
Guard Devante Chance was
able to dribble-penetrate, but
not finish. Shooting guard Car-
rington Ward had 28 points in
the Chargers’ first-round victory
and ended up with 21, but many
came after Redeemer pulled
away midway through the
fourth.
The 50 points were also the
third fewest the Chargers scored
this season.
“Kudos to my guys,” Belenski
said. “They showed some guts,
they showed some courage and
they showed they know how to
play the game.”

Austin Carr of Holy Redeemer drives to the basket as PET Char-
ter’s Devante Chance defends during Tuesday’s state playoff
game.
PET outscored Redeemer in
the second quarter, but only by a
10-6 margin as the Royals held a
26-17 halftime lead.
“Sometimes in the summer
Pete can’t be with us, so we learn
to play without him,” said Lam-
bert. “Mike (Prociak) is only a
freshman, but does a good job re-
bounding. We also didn’t have to
worry about them doubling-
down on Mike, so it opened up a
little.
“We played pretty good with-
out Pete in the game. But we’d
rather have him out there with
us.”
Alexis picked up his third foul
of the game with 5:05 remaining
in the third quarter and the Roy-
als holding a 33-24 lead. Instead
of taking out Alexis, coach Mark
Belenski left his big guy on the
court.
“I had to be a little careful, but
I trust my teammates,” said
Alexis. “I played an extra step
back on defense, but otherwise I
played the same.”
Not onlydidAlexis not pickup
his fourth foul, he scored four
more points in the quarter on a
pair of inside baskets.
“We trust each other,” said
Carr. “Even when Pete was out,
we still had guys on the court
who were doing their jobs. Ev-
eryone was doing something
good.”
Lambert was nailing three-
pointers early. Ruch and Carr hit
buzzer-beater baskets to end the
first and third quarters, respec-
tively. Senior guardJohnMcCar-
thy played hard on both sides of
the court. And Prociak, Adam
Dunsmuir and Ryan DeRemer
were giving the Royals quality
minutes off the bench.
“We showed we’re more than
Peter (Alexis),” said Belenski.
“Kudos to my guys. They
showed they had guts, courage
and a knowledge of the game.”

NOME, Alaska — John Baker
crossed the finish line first Tues-
day in the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog
Race to reclaim the title of Idita-
rod champion for an Alaska Na-
tive musher.
Baker, 48, of Kotzebue, steered
his dog teamdown the main drag
inthis goldrushtownonAlaska’s
western coast to win the 1,150-
mile race from Anchorage to
Nome, and get his name in the re-
cord books.
He is the first Alaska Native
musher towintheworld’s longest
sleddogracesinceJerryRileydid
it in1976.
Baker also shattered exactly by
three hours the race record held
by four-time champion Martin
Buser, who completed the 2002
raceineight days, 22hoursand46
minutes. Baker completed the
race in 8 days, 19 hours and 46
minutes.
“Runningateamlikethis, there
is nothing better,” Baker said. “I
amreally proud of this.”
He said this year’s running was
an “incredible race for me.”
The soft-spoken Baker then be-
gan shaking hands with some of
the hundreds of people who lined
uptowatchthefinishshortlyafter
sunrise on a crisp (2 degrees) but
clear morning.
He was greeted by a group of
musicians playing Eskimo
drums. Many in the crowd wore
traditional Eskimo parkas.
Baker said he gets strength
from Eskimo dancing and drum-
ming and was pleased to see the
Eskimo drummers greet him at
the race’s end. He saidthat is how
he had imagined it would be if he
ever won the Iditarod.
“That was a dream that I had
and I must have mentioned it to
someone.”
Sheldon Katchatag was one of
the Eskimo drummers who
helped give Baker a traditional
welcome.
“We have to
properly drum
himin,” hesaid.
“My spirit is
movedtodoit. I
want him to en-
joy the glory of
his moment.”
Having just
come of the trail, Baker appeared
happy but exhausted, and uncer-
tainabout whether he wouldrace
in the Iditarod again.
“All along I’ve said if I won this
race one time I would question
whether I would do this again,”
Baker said. However, he quickly
followed that up with his hope to
work with a young group of dogs
that hehas waitingfor himinKot-
zebue.
Bertha Koweluk, 43, an Alaska
Native from Nome, watched the
finish with her 8-year-old daugh-
ter, and said that Baker’s win will
inspire Native people across the
state.
“He represents a resilient peo-
ple and it just shows we’re strong
and we can overcome,” she said.
She said that so many times
Alaska Natives are depicted as
weak and crippled by addiction.
But Baker’s win, she said, illus-
trates an untold story of her peo-
ple.
“We all need people to look up
to, and this is a good guy to look
up to,” she said.
While Baker is the first Alaska
Native to win the race in many
years, he is the first Eskimo to ev-
er do it.
Elnora Wands, 75, from Den-
ver, Colo., is a retired school
teacher whospent adecadeinthe
western Alaska town of Point
Hope, wheresomeof Baker’s rela-
tiveslive. Shesaidwhenshewasa
teacher there Baker came to the
school to give the children an in-
spirational talkabout howhecon-
quered his problem with alcohol
addiction and now is an Iditarod
musher.

Native Alaskan
wins Iditarod race
The Associated Press
Baker
PALMHARBOR, Fla. —Sean
Foley had a peaceful Tuesday
morning on the PGA Tour. No
more than a half-dozen people
paid attention as he walked a
practice round with a client who
was coming off a strong finish
that was sorely needed.
That would be Stephen Ames,
whotiedfor thirdinPuertoRico.
It’s that other client — Tiger
Woods — who brings Foley
more scrutiny than ever, and
lately, more criticism.
Woods was100 miles away ina
made-for-TV exhibition on his
home golf course, although that
won’t stop the growing debate
about where he is in this “proc-
ess” of changing his swing, and
whether he is heading down the
right path.
Foley was expecting this when
they first began working togeth-
er last August at the PGACham-
pionship.
“When I started with Tiger, I
didn’t think it would be a month
and then he’d kill everyone,” Fo-
ley said. “Remember, I got him
right after Akron, the low point
of his professional career.”
It was last year at Firestone,
where Woods had won seven
times and had never finished
worse than fifth, that he had the
worst 72-hole score of his career
(298) and tied for 78th against
an 80-man field.
A few months later, Foley said
he stopped reading golf stories
and turned the volume down
when watching golf on TV.
He says the criticism doesn’t
bother him.
“Look, I’m a Canadian who at
19 was a white kid at an all-black
university,” said Foley, who
played college golf at Tennessee
State. “This couldn’t even be
called criticism what I’m going
through now.”
With Woods, criticism comes
with the territory.
“For some reason,” Woods
saidlast weekwitha grin, “I tend
to get a little bit more scruti-
nized than most players do, ana-
lyzed to the nth degree about
what goes on within one round
of golf. That’s something new to
him. He has not quite faced that.
But he said the one positive
thing is I’m always on TV, so he
gets to look at a lot of golf
swings.”
Hank Haney caught it just as
bad, if not worse, when he was
revamping Woods’ swing
through2004. One player joking-
ly said he was thinking about su-
ing Haney for loss of wages if
Woods didn’t regain his form.
Woods eventually picked up
Haney’s instruction and went on
to win six majors and more than
40 percent of his tournaments,
astounding numbers that no one
else in this generation has come
close to matching — except for
Woods earlier in his career.
Foley says he has an “alliga-
tor’s hide” when it comes to tak-
ing criticism. Trouble is, he also
has an alligator’s mouth when it
comes to talking, and he re-
placed a swing coach who has
rice paper for skin and prefers to
do his talking in 140 characters
or fewer.
Haney took Twitter to an ex-
treme last week during the Ca-
dillac Championship.
It started last September
when Foley said in an interview
with foxsports.com, “Let’s be
honest about this, it’s not like he
was flushingit withHank.” Then
came an interviewwith golf.com
in which Foley said nothing
about Woods’ previous swing
made any sense to him.
Haney fired off more tweets
than Vijay Singh hits balls on the
practice range, using Woods’ re-
sults as affirmation.
“I think it was more of a reac-
tion to what I had said that I nev-
er fully understood what they
were working on,” Foley said.
“He’s got everyright tocomment
back. But to the extreme and the
amount ... I was like, ’Do you
have anything else to do?’
“Tiger and Hank won a lot of
majors, a lot of tournaments, and
youcan’t take that away fromthe
guy. And he helped Tiger,” Foley
said. “He’s allowed to say what
he wants. If I offended him, I
didn’t mean to. But Tiger helped
build Hank’s career, not the oth-
er way around.”
All this must be somewhat
amusing to Butch Harmon, who
is not immune to criticism. Har-
mon recalls hearing the skeptics
after Woods won the Masters by
a record 12 shots and decided to
overhaul his swing.
“Everyone said we were crazy,
that I was going to ruin him,”
Harmon said Tuesday.
It worked out OK.
Even now, as it was when
Woods was withHaney, thereare
a number of experts who think
Woods ought to just go back to
Harmon and repeat what he was
doing in 2000 when won 10
times around the world, includ-
ing three straight majors. Har-
mon says it’s not that simple.
The equipment is different,
Woods’ physique has changed
and “he’s had three surgeries
since I had him.”
Harmon came from a no-non-
sense family of golf teachers —
father Claude, a former Masters
champion, along with brothers
Billy, Craig and Dick, who died
five years ago. He also had the
experience of taking Greg Nor-
mantoNo. 1beforeworkingwith
Woods.
His only advice is to Foley as a
coach, not what Foley is coach-
ing.
Harmon says Foley has it the
toughest because he took the job
when Woods was at his worst —
not only with his golf game, but
trying to patch together a per-
sonal life torn apart.
“I had it the easiest,” Harmon
said. “I had him when he was a
teenager. He was young. He did
everything I asked himto do. He
wasn’t married. He didn’t have
those outside problems. Sean is
young (36). He’s got a big ego.
He’s been thrown into a difficult
situation. He probably got Tiger
at the worst time. When Tiger
left me andwent toHank, he was
still a good player.”
Harmon said he has talked to
Foley about not letting the
media beat him up, to accept
praise and criticism in equal
measure, andto expect the latter
far more often.
“He’s never been in the hot
seat,” Harmon said. “And this is
a hot seat.”

NEW YORK — Bryan
McCabe had a goal and an
assist, and the Rangers scored
three times on a potent power
play to win the latest New
York-New York matchup over
the Islanders.
Brandon Prust netted a
short-handed goal, and Erik
Christensen scored on the
power play in a dominating
first period in which the Rang-
ers grabbed a 2-0 lead and took

Chicago 98, Washington 79
CHICAGO — Derrick Rose
scored 23 points in Chicago’s
seventh straight win, a victory
over the Washington Wizards
that moved the Bulls into sole
possession of first place in the
Eastern Conference.
Luol Deng added 20 points
and Keith Bogans scored 17,
his highest total since joining
the Bulls. Bogans took all of his
10 shots from behind the 3-
point arc, hitting a season-high
five.
Atlanta 110, Milwaukee 85
ATLANTA — Sporting a
new look, Joe Johnson scored
36 points — 28 in the first half
— and the Atlanta Hawks
romped to a victory over the
Milwaukee Bucks in a makeup
game.
Johnson donned a black
headband to protect the back
of his scalp after undergoing a
procedure to treat a skin in-
fection. It must have helped his
shooting touch, too. He made
six straight 3-pointers on the
way to the highest-scoring half
by an Atlanta player this sea-
son.
Indiana 119, New York 117
INDIANAPOLIS — Danny
Granger’s jumper with 0.3
seconds left gave the Indiana
Pacers a victory over the New
York Knicks.
Indiana passed the ball in-
bounds with 7.8 seconds left.
Granger worked the clock,
drove right on Shawne Wil-
liams, pulled up and connected
on a 17-foot fadeaway.
OTTAWA — Tyler Kennedy
and Jordan Staal each had a
goal and an assist and the Pitts-
burgh Penguins beat the Otta-
wa Senators 5-1 Tuesday night.
Chris Kunitz had three as-
sists for the Penguins, who also
got goals from Ben Lovejoy,
Matt Cooke and Zbynek Micha-
lek.
The Senators have now lost
two straight after their three-
game winning streak was
snapped in Buffalo on Sunday.
Washington 4, Montreal 2
MONTREAL — Marcus
Johansson scored his second
goal of the game 6:43 into the
third period, Mike Knuble
added Washington’s second
power-play goal and the Cap-
itals extended their winning
streak to nine games with a
victory over the Montreal Can-
adiens.
New Jersey 4, Atlanta 2
NEWARK, N.J. — Rookie
Jacob Josefson scored early in
the third period and the hard-
charging New Jersey Devils
rallied from a two-goal deficit
to defeat the Atlanta Thrash-
ers.
Travis Zajac, Patrik Elias and
Ilya Kovalchuk also scored as
the Devils improved to 23-3-2
in their last 28 games and
moved past the .500 mark
(33-32-4) for the first time this
season.
Philadelphia 3, Florida 2
SUNRISE, Fla. — Jeff Carter
scored two goals in the second
period and the Philadelphia
Flyers beat the Florida Pan-
thers.
Scott Hartnell also scored for
the Flyers and Brian Boucher
made 20 saves. The win was
the Flyers’ third in eight games
but they maintained a one-
point lead over Washington in
the Eastern Division.
Boston 3, Columbus 2. SO.

LAKELAND, Fla. — Daisuke
Matsuzaka emerged from a
spring training slump, throwing
five shutout innings Tuesday to
help the Boston Red Sox beat
the Detroit Tigers 2-1 in 10 in-
nings.
Matsuzaka entered with an
11.42 ERA in three games this
spring, but allowed only two
hits and struck out five against
the Tigers.
Darnell McDonald homered
in the 10th. Jacoby Ellsbury also
went deep for Boston.
Tigers first baseman Miguel
Cabrera hit his second homer of
the spring and boosted his aver-
age to .306 after a slow start.
Justin Verlander pitched 5 1-3
innings and allowed an earned
run that raised his spring ERA
to 1.20. He struck out five and
walked none.
Rays 11, Marlins 2
PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. —
Johnny Damon, Evan Longoria
and Manny Ramirez each had
two hits as Tampa Bay cruised
past Florida.
Ramirez and B.J. Upton both
hit their second home run of the
spring. Longoria and Ramirez
each had three RBIs. Before the
game, Rays manager Joe Mad-
don announced that David Price
would be the team’s opening-
day starter.
Astros 14, Orioles 8
SARASOTA, Fla. — Brett
Wallace hit a grand slam and
knocked in seven runs, leading
Houston over Baltimore.
Wallace added two doubles
and a single, and was joined by
teammate Jason Bourgeois with
four hits, powering Houston’s
17-hit attack. Bill Hall added a
two-run homer during a three-
run fourth.
The 24-year-old Wallace,
looking to cement a starting
spot at first base, was drafted
No. 13 overall by St. Louis in
2008 out of Arizona State. He
has already been traded three
times.
Phillies 13, Blue Jays 7
DUNEDIN, Fla. — Joe Blan-
ton settled down after a shaky
start, Raul Ibanez hit a two-run
homer and Philadelphia beat
Toronto as the teams combined
for 30 hits.
It wasn’t all good news for the
Phillies, though. Third baseman
Placido Polanco re-injured his
surgically repaired left elbow in
the first inning and came out of
the game. He said he doesn’t
think it’s anything serious.
Cardinals 4, Braves 0
JUPITER, Fla. — Kyle
McClellan made another strong
statement in his bid for St.
Louis’ vacant starting spot,
allowing one hit in five scoreless
innings against Atlanta.
Derek Lowe also was stingy in
a five-inning stint, giving up a
run on four hits. But the Braves
were held to three hits for a
two-game total of one run on
five hits with five errors, four of
them on Tuesday.
Rockies 4, Cubs (ss) 2
MESA, Ariz. — Esmil Rogers
allowed one hit in five innings
with three strikeouts and no
walks to solidify his chance to
make Colorado’s rotation.
Rogers, a right-hander, has a
chance to take advantage of
Aaron Cook’s injuries (shoulder,
ring finger) and nab the fifth
spot.
Cubs (ss) 8, Athletics (ss) 1
PHOENIX — Brett Jackson,
Tyler Colvin and Welington
Castillo each homered to lead
Chicago over Oakland in a split-
squad game.
Cubs right-hander Andrew
Cashner, making his second
start of the spring and fourth
appearance, struggled a bit in
the first inning, giving up a
leadoff double to Coco Crisp
and an RBI single to Daric Bar-
ton. Those were the only hits he
allowed in 3 1-3 innings, al-
though he did walk two and hit
a batter.
Royals 4, Athletics (ss) 3
SURPRISE, Ariz. — Alex
Gordon hit a two-run homer to
lift Kansas City over an Oakland
split squad.
Gordon, who started spring
training 0 for 11, went 2 for 3 to
hike his average to .367 with
three home runs and 12 RBIs.
Right-hander Nate Adcock, a
Rule 5 pick from the Pittsburgh
Pirates, threw three scoreless
innings and has not allowed a
run in five appearances covering
eight innings.
Angels 9, Padres 6
PEORIA, Ariz. — Torii Hun-
ter and Vernon Wells homered
on consecutive pitches to start
the fourth inning and Los An-
geles went deep four times
against San Diego.
Mark Trumbo added a two-
run shot in the fourth, his fifth
homer of the spring. Brandon
Wood connected in the sixth.
Bobby Abreu had a two-run
double for the Angels.
Dodgers 7, Rangers 6
GLENDALE, Ariz. — Juan
Uribe had three RBIs and Los
Angeles beat Texas.
Andre Ethier and Ivan DeJe-
sus had two hits apiece for the
Dodgers, who finished with 13
after entering the game with a
major league-worst .239 spring
batting average.
David Murphy had three hits
and two RBIs for Texas. Derek
Holland gave up four runs and
seven hits in four innings.
Indians 9, Brewers 7
GOODYEAR, Ariz. — Mitch
Talbot worked five strong in-
nings for Cleveland, lowering
his ERA from17.55 to 11.57.
Indians reliever Jensen Lewis
yielded three-run homers to Eric
Farris and Mike Rivera in the
seventh to turn a 6-1 lead into a
7-6 deficit. Milwaukee closer
John Axford then gave up three
runs in the bottom half.

NEW YORK — Fears over the
escalating nuclear crisis in Japan
overtook financial markets
around the globe Tuesday, push-
ing stocks and other investments
lower. TheJapanesestockmarket
lost 10 percent of its value, and
Wall Street dropped steeply be-
fore bouncing back.
The Japanese
Nikkei average fell
to its lowest level
innearlytwoyears
after the country’s
prime minister
said four crippled
reactors at anucle-
ar power plant on
the country’s dev-
astatedcoast were
leakingdangerous
amounts of radi-
ation.
In the U.S., the
Dow Jones indus-
trial averagefell al-
most 300 points at
the opening bell.
Thefutures market, whichcanin-
dicate how stocks will perform,
looked so ugly before trading be-
gan that the New York Stock Ex-
change invoked a special rule to
smooth volatility.
The Dow recovered somewhat
later in the day but still closed
down.
Investors sold stocks primarily
because of fear the disaster in Ja-
pan would slow down the global
economy.
Over the last five trading days
the Standard & Poor’s 500 index
has nearly lost 3 percent because
of higher oil prices, signs of weak-
nesses in China’s economy, and
the still unknown impact of the
quake and tsunami in Japan.
“Markets are going to remain
onedge until we knowthe full ex-
tent of the situation in Japan,”
said Michael Ryan, chief invest-
ment strategist with UBS Wealth
Management.
The Japanese markets have
taken a huge hit since the quake
and tsunami struck last week.
The Nikkei average fell a stagger-
ing 10.6 percent Tuesday, more
than 1,000 points, and has suf-
fered its worst two-day loss in 40
years.
In addition to Japan, investors
on Wall Street fretted about the
Middle East.
Stocksparedearlierlossesafter
the Federal Reserve said that the
U.S. economywason“firmerfoot-
ing.” Still, 29 out of the 30 stocks
that make up the Dow industrial
average closed lower for the day.

Wholesale inflation
The Labor Department is
expected to say that the Producer
Price Index, which measures
price changes at the wholesale
level, rose in February. More
expensive commodities have
pushed up the cost of everything
from gas to T-shirts. Companies
have delayed passing higher
prices on to consumers, but the
increases are now starting to hit
shoppers’ wallets. That may be
evident when the Consumer Price
Index comes out Thursday.
Good Guesses
A jump in the price of raw
cotton has made clothing
more expensive for retailers.
But European and Asian
shoppers have sent earn-
ings higher at clothing
maker Guess for three
straight quarters. Investors
hope that the company’s
cost-cutting efforts and
global expansion continued
the trend, although the
denim-maker is particularly
dependent on cotton.
A reading on housing
Bright spots in the home-
building industry have been
hard to come by, and a
report on housing starts in
February isn’t likely to help.
Analysts expect the Com-
merce Department to say
that the number of new
homes that started con-
struction fell from January.
Home construction has
been running at about half
of what it should be in a
healthy economy.

Oil slides on Japan crisis
Oil prices fell sharply Tuesday on
deepening fears about Japan’s economy
after its nuclear crisis worsened follow-
ing a devastating earthquake and tsu-
nami.
Investors worried about diminished
demand for oil and other products in
Japan, the world’s third-largest oil
importer. However, Wall Street analysts
expect that Japan will eventually in-
crease imports of oil, coal and natural
gas.
Benchmark West Texas Intermediate
crude for April delivery dropped $4.01,
or 4 percent, to settle at $97.18 per
barrel on the New York Mercantile
Exchange. Brent crude fell $5.15, or 4.5
percent, to settle at $108.52 per barrel
on the ICE Futures exchange.
Tom Bentz, director of BNP Paribas
Commodity Futures Inc., speculated
prices could fall as low as $95 a barrel
in coming weeks because of ongoing
concerns about Japan.
Wegmans to take donations
Beginning today, all Wegmans stores
will accept customer donations at
checkout to help the victims of the
earthquake and tsunami in Japan. The
program will run through Saturday,
April 2.
Customers may donate any amount,
and 100 percent of their donations will
go to the American Red Cross Disaster
Relief Fund for Japan Earthquake and
Pacific Tsunami that provides funding
for relief supplies and other needs. The
Wegmans Family Charitable Founda-
tion has also announced a $100,000
donation to the American Red Cross
Disaster Relief Fund for Japan Earth-
quake and Pacific Tsunami.
Wegmans has 77 stores in its chain
including two stores locally, one in
Wilkes-Barre Township and the other
in Dickson City.
Investors buying up yen
Investors worried over the nuclear
crisis in Japan and the ensuing world-
wide sell-off in stock markets are buy-
ing up the globe’s traditional safe-
haven currencies: the dollar, Swiss
franc and even the Japanese yen.
The flight to safety comes as Japan’s
benchmark Nikkei 225 sank 10.6 per-
cent — more than 1,000 points — on
Tuesday, on top of a 6 percent drop
Monday. Stocks tumbled in Europe and
opened sharply lower in the U.S..
The move to buy yen may seem
counter-intuitive considering the devas-
tation wrought by the earthquake and
tsunami in Japan, and the intensifying
nuclear threat. But investors expect
Japanese investors to close down over-
seas bets and bring their money home.
Egypt’s airlines take hit
Egypt’s civil aviation minister says
the country’s airline industry has lost
more than 1 billion Egyptian pounds
($170 million) as a result of the unrest
that led to the ouster of President
Hosni Mubarak.
Ibrahim Manaa told reporters Tues-
day that over 60 percent of the losses
were from to national carrier, EgyptAir,
while the remainder came in losses at
the country’s various airports.
More than 150,000 foreign tourists
fled the country during the 18-day
uprising that began on Jan. 25.
EgyptAir was hard hit, canceling at
as many as 75 percent of its flights and
most recently offering to lease some of
its newest planes, along with crew, to
offset projected losses.

THE TIMES LEADER WEDNESDAY, MARCH 16, 2011

The unemployment rate for the tri-
county region that includes Lackawan-
na, Luzerne and Wyoming dipped four-
tenths of a percentage point from De-
cember to January.
It was the fourth straight month of
decline but not enough to move the re-
gion out of the top spot of the state’s 14
metroareasintermsof unemployment.
The data, made public Tuesday by
the Center for Workforce Information
& Analysis, shows that while the over-
all unemployment rate for the area
dropped, when viewed at the county
level Luzerne County had the steepest
month-to-monthandyear-to-year drop.
Luzerne’s seasonally adjusted rate of
9 percent was a seven-tenths of a per-
centagepoint lower thantheDecember
rate and a full percentage point lower
than the rate in January 2010.
Wyoming County’s rate of 9.3 per-
cent was four-tenths lower thanthe De-
cember figure but a one-and- four-
tenths percentage points increase over
theJanuary2010. InLackawannaCoun-
ty, the rate of 9.2 percent held steady
from December to January but rose
one-tenthof one percent fromthe Janu-
ary 2010 total of 9.1percent.
As a region, evenwiththe goodnews
that the unemployment rate was dip-
ping, theScranton/Wilkes-Barremetro
area was still higher than the state and
national levels of 8.2 percent and 9 per-
cent respectively.
The figures show the metro area’s
seasonally adjustedlabor force grewby
1,500 workers to 281,500.
The hardest hit sector in January lo-
cally was retail, which saw a loss of
1,600 jobs as stores laid off temporary
seasonal workers after the holidays.
That sector is still up 300 jobs when
compared to January 2010.
Another sector that saw a drop
blamed on seasonal workers being laid
off was professional and business ser-
vice jobs, which shed 1,400 workers.
That sector was up 2,400 year-to-year,
however.
Winter weather, not the holiday sea-
son, is blamed for a loss of 1,200 jobs in
the mining, logging and construction
supersector. Even with the loss, the su-
persector is up 100 jobs over last Janu-
ary.
At 9.1percent, the metro area is two-

PURCHASE, N.Y. — First
there were cola wars. Now it’s
bottle wars.
PepsiCo Inc. unveiled a new
bottle Tuesday made entirely
of plant material that it says
bests the technology of com-
petitor Coca-Cola and reduces
bottles’ carbon footprint.
The bottle is made from
switch grass, pine bark, corn
husks and other materials. Ul-
timately, Pepsi plans to also
use orange peels, oat hulls, po-
tato scraps and other leftovers
from its food business.
The new bottle looks, feels
and protects the drink inside
exactly the same as its current
bottles, saidRocco Papalia, se-
nior vice president of ad-
vanced research at PepsiCo.
“It’s a beautiful thing to be-
hold,” he said. “It’s indistin-
guishable.”
PepsiCosays it is theworld’s
first bottle of a common type
of plastic called PETmade en-
tirely of plant materials. Coca-
Cola Co. currently produces a
bottle using 30 percent plant-
based materials and recently
estimated it would be several
years before it has a 100 per-
cent plant bottle that’s com-
mercially viable.
Coca-Cola said it welcomed
other advances in packaging,
but noted that it has scaled up
use of its own plant-based bot-
tle since introducing it in
2009.
Cola companies fight over whose bottle is best

I
n less than three years, Gerard
Hetman went from being a free-
lance reporter for The Abington
Journal to The Times Leader’s
2010 Employee of the Year.
Hetman, 24, of Scranton, was be-
stowed that honor Tuesday. His work
shooting video for timesleader.comand
also frequently updating the website
with the latest local, state, national and
international news was mentioned as
contributing factors in his selection.
Hetman also writes a Formula 1 racing
blog on timesleader.com.
A 2008 Wilkes University graduate,
Hetman started with The Wilkes-Barre
Publishing Co. in the fall of 2008 as a
freelance writer for The Abington Jour-
nal in Clarks Summit. In September of
2009, he was hired part-time as a staff
writer for that publication and was pro-
moted in the spring of 2010 to full-time
staff writer for both The Abington Jour-
nal and the Scranton-based Sunday
newspaper Go Lackawanna. He was
brought on board as an online content
specialist for The Wilkes-Barre Publish-
ing Co.’s online/interactive media de-
partment in October 2010.
Hetman credited his co-workers and
the teamwork he has seen as reasons
why The Times Leader continues to
win accolades from media and non-
media organizations and why timeslea-
der.com has become the number one
media website in Northeast Pennsylva-
nia in terms of unique page views per
month.
“I believe our coverage of the ongoing
county corruption investigations is
symbolic of the great teamwork that I
enjoy so much about our company.
Working on such high-profile cases, to-
gether with a great team of journalists,
is an amazing experience,” Hetman
said.
It was Hetman’s online updates and
video from the federal corruption trial
of former Judge Mark Ciavarella that
was specifically cited by Times Leader
Editor and Publisher Richard L. Con-
nor as an example of Hetman’s hard
work and effort.
The other finalists for The Times
Leader’s 2010 Employee of the Year
award were Nick DeLorenzo, of Wright
Township, the company’s director of
new and interactive media, and Rachel
Courtney, of Wilkes-Barre, the compa-
ny’s senior recruitment specialist.

StocksRecap
The stock market is having big
swings that recall uneasy times
such as the October 2008 crash.
The Dow has risen or fallen by
more than 100 points seven times
in the last three weeks. That follows
just two triple-digit days in each of
December and January. The big
moves started because of rising oil
prices, which climbed as high as
$105 a barrel last week. Now, wor-
ries about Japan are sending
stocks plunging.
Individual investors who only
recently decided to get back into
the market may be groaning at
what seems like bad timing. The
S&P 500 has lost 5 percent since it
reached a 32-month high of
1343.01 on Feb. 18. While the
market indicator known as the fear
gauge, the VIX index, is up 37 per-
cent to 24 this year, it’s nowhere
near the 89.5 it reached during the
crash.
Don Hodges, who manages the
$328.5 million Hodges fund, says
of volatility, “if you’re gutty, it pres-
ents a lot of opportunity.” When oil
was around $100, he used down
days to buy Delta Air Lines and
American Airlines’ owner AMR.
Airlines stocks fell because expen-
sive fuel could wipe out some of
their profits.
Hodges says investors should
get used to volatility. It is increasing
because the market is dominated
by what’s called high-frequency
trading. That’s a strategy used by
hedge funds and other big inves-
tors who use computer programs to
make trades, sometimes in less
than a second. That can drive
stocks sharply higher or lower.
Some consolation: Although
triple-digit days are occurring more
often, the market has a long way to
go before it approaches the volatility
of October 2008. The Dow rose or
fell by triple digits 20 out of 23 days.

Stocks are more volatile, as measured by the number of days the Dow has risen or fallen by at least
100 points. In March, it has moved by triple digits 45 percent of trading days. The market’s fear gauge
is also up, but nowhere near its levels during the 2008 financial crisis.

Shares of the conglomerate, which
helped design the stricken Fukushi-
ma Daiichi nuclear power plant in
Japan, extended declines.
The health and life insurance com-
pany does about 75 percent of its
business in Japan, and led declines
in U.S. insurance stocks.
The home furnishings retailer was a
rare stock gainer after strong sales
drove quarterly profit higher, and its
outlook topped estimates.
Stocks fell sharply as the nuclear crisis in Japan
weighed on global markets. The market plunged
at the start of trading on news that dangerous lev-
els of radiation are leaking from a crippled nuclear
plant in Japan. The plant was damaged in last
week's earthquake and tsunami. Intel Corp., Na-
tional Semiconductor Corp. and other chip makers
were among the biggest losers. The Dow fell 1.1
percent. The S&P 500 fell 1.1 percent. The Nas-
daq fell 1.2 percent.

The rain we had
overnight
amounted to no
more than a half
inch in most
places, and for
the rest of today
skies will stay
mostly cloudy. A
wind shift
tonight will pro-
mote clearing,
but tempera-
tures should stay
above 30. Then,
starting
Thursday,
warmer air will
begin heading in
our direction
under a good
deal of sunshine.
The luck of the
Irish never fails.
The warm-up will
last into Friday
when it'll really
start to feel like
spring with read-
ings in the 60s!
But, Spring won't
officially arrive
until Sunday
evening at 7:21
p.m. and. for
most of next
week. our tem-
peratures will
probably trend
above normal.

THIS SEA-
BIRD isn’t a
gull or tern but
a modern clas-
sical dish that
combines poul-
try and sea-
food. Accompa-
nied by a lively sauce with Asian
and French connections, it has
complex flavors but can be
simply prepared.
A weekend special occasion
with wine and friends can make
this culinary venture a memora-
ble event.
SEABIRD VICTORIA
WITHSAKE BUTTER SAUCE
4 ounces chicken breast with
skin
2 ounces lobster tail meat
baby spinach, 8-10 leaves
olive oil
kosher salt
cracked black pepper
Flatten chicken breast, skin side
down, with a heavy mallet. Season
with olive oil, salt and pepper.
Proceed to layer with spinach and
lobster meat, then gently roll into a
cylinder shape.
Place the rolled breast onto a
sheet of aluminum foil and roll to
form. Crease at ends. Place in
350-degree oven for 25 minutes,
preferably on a metal rack.
When done, let cool for five
minutes. Take out of foil and cut
into
1
⁄2-inch medallions. Ladle with
sake butter sauce. Garnish with
potatoes and vegetables. A mush-
room risotto also would comple-
ment well.
SAKE BUTTER SAUCE
2 tablespoons peeled and ju-
lienned ginger
1 tablespoon minced shallots
1 stick unsalted butter, cut into
large dice
1/2cup quality sake
1/2 teaspoon fresh lime juice
kosher salt
In a small saucepan, sweat gin-
ger and shallots in one tablespoon
of butter for 3 minutes. Add the
sake, bring to a boil and reduce by
two thirds. Add the heavy cream
and reduce by half. This should
take about two minutes.
Add the remaining pieces of
diced butter, bit by bit, whisking
constantly over medium heat. The
butter will emulsify. Whisk in lime
juice and season with salt.

On the traditional side, a few
staples are found throughout
Ireland, with the dominant
theme being mashed potatoes.
Colcannon, a popular dish, con-
sists of mashed potatoes served
with cabbage or kale and sea-
soned with salt and pepper,
while Champ is a dish of mashed
potatoes and scallions.
“Bangers and Mash” is another
item on most menus. That’s
Irish sausage and mashed pota-
toes. Well-known Irish stew is
made of lamb or mutton and
root vegetables, such as carrots
and parsnips. Not surprising, it
is sometimes served on a heap-
ing pile of – you guessed it –
mashed potatoes.
While all very good, my most
memorable meal in Ireland was
my daily breakfast. This feast fit
for a Gaelic king is the Ulster
fry. It starts with two fried eggs,
two pieces of sausage, Irish
ham, (similar to Canadian ba-
con), black and white pudding
(two kinds of sausage using
pigs’ blood and barley as a bind-
ing agent), sautéed tomatoes,
mushrooms, and rashers (Irish
bacon). Rounding out this mam-
moth morning meal are two
slices each of grilled Irish soda
bread and potato bread, a
unique preparation of hash
browns, and, last but definitely
not least, Heinz baked beans.
Yes, baked beans from Pitts-
burgh! It seems as though baked
beans in the traditional blue can
from Pennsylvania are served
throughout the Emerald Isle.
If you stay in a bed and break-
fast in any part of the country,
the Ulster fry is a must. Get this
for breakfast, and there will be
no need to stop for lunch.
On the modern side, the re-
birth of Irish food with young,
innovative chefs is sweeping the
Irish cities. In Kinsale, County
Cork, dinners can go upward of
$200 US per person. Interna-
tionally known chefs and “foo-
dies” alike flock to this small
Irish city to sample the cre-
ations and world-class cuisine of
chefs Ciaran Fitzgerald and
Michael Buckley.
Throughout the country,
great seafood also abounds. The
Oyster Festival in Galway each
October finds people from
around the world coming to
partake in the Irish delicacy. If
one travels to the north coast of
the island, salmon is the fea-
tured dish. Many chefs and
critics consider wild-caught
salmon the best on the globe.
Mussels also are as available as
potato chips. In many bars,
pickled mussels are served as
pick food, and in fine-dining
eateries, mussels are featured
appetizers and entrees.
It is also interesting to note
that the common dinner of fish
and chips actually originated
in Ireland in the 1880s and is
attributed to an Italian immi-
grant, San Donato Val di Comi-
no. There are now heated argu-
ments as to who has the best
fish and chips on the isle, and it
has been elevated to a fine-
dining dish by chefs who have
reinvented and reconstructed
the old classic.
Finally, I would be remiss not
to mention some of Ireland’s
well-known libations, which
often complement a fine meal.
The most famous export of
Ireland, Guinness, is a natural,
low-carbohydrate beer with a
thick head and incredible multi-
layered flavor. This beer
screams Ireland.
Another popular beverage is
Jameson’s Irish whiskey. And by
the way, there is only one way to
serve it: neat. All you need is a
clean rocks glass, period. A
second whiskey, perhaps not as
well-known, is Bushmills. Made
on the north coast, the whiskey
is distilled in huge copper ket-
tles and cooked with peat as its
heat source. The result is an
unmistakable, smoky, almost
scotchlike flavor. Finally, Bai-
ley’s Irish Creamis the perfect
end to any dinner. Created from
a combination of Irish whiskey,
cream and chocolate, it has a
flavor profile that lends itself to
frozen drinks, mixed drinks or
simply sipping on the rocks.
Quite unfairly, Irish food has
often gotten a bad rap, mistak-
enly viewed as simple food from
poor people who used what was
available. Mostly stewed meats
and fish are comfort foods that
all cultures have and cherish.
In recent years, though, a new
Irish cuisine has emerged, and it
is cutting-edge. Young, energetic
chefs have stepped onto the
world stage and set the bar very
high. This has been accom-
plished by creating dishes made
with the freshest ingredients,
locally grown, raised and har-
vested on the Emerald Isle. As I
found on my travels, whether
you like traditional stews, or
avant-garde, super-fresh grilled
salmon, many fine Irish foods
will delight even the most dis-
cerning palate.

COLCANNON
Ingredients
3 lbs. chef (russet) potatoes,
washed thoroughly
1/2 lb. butter
8 oz. milk or half and half,
heated
1 head green cabbage, cored
and finely shredded or 1 bunch of
kale
1 lb. ham
3 scallions, finely chopped
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup chopped curly parsley
Method:
Peel and dice potatoes into large
(3/4-inch) pieces.
Cook in salted water until fork
tender. Whip potatoes until there
are no lumps. Add butter and hot
milk by alternating each until all is
added. Season with salt and pep-
per. Be sure not to over-salt be-
cause the ham will be salty. Keep
warm.
While the potatoes are simmer-
ing, boil ham and shredded cab-
bage (if not using kale) in unsalted
water until the cabbage is tender.
Remove ham and cabbage and
medium-dice (½ inch) both.
Combine the potatoes, cabbage
(or kale, first boiled in salted wa-
ter), ham and scallions.
Top with chopped parsley and
serve.
This can be served as a side dish
or as an entrée.

1 tablespoon Worcestershire
sauce
Heat the oven to 400 F.
On a rimmed baking sheet, roll
the potatoes in a hearty drizzle of
olive oil and some salt. Bake until
tender, about 1 hour, then let cool.
Turn off the oven and switch on
the broiler.
While the potatoes cool, in a
medium skillet over medium, heat
1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Add
the bell pepper and half of the
onions and saute to soften for 5
minutes, then set aside to cool.
When the potatoes are cool
enough to handle, cut a thin top
slice off each potato. In a bowl,
combine the bell pepper and
onion mixture, the sour cream,
smoked paprika, half of the Gou-
da, salt and pepper. Scoop the
flesh from each potato and to the
bowl. Mash to combine. Set aside.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet
over medium-high, heat the
remaining 2 tablespoons of olive
oil. Add the ground sirloin and
brown for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring
occasionally to break up the
lumps. Add the mushrooms and
cook until they start to turn gold-
en brown, 4 to 5 minutes more.
Add the remaining onions and
the garlic and cook for another 5
minutes. Push all of the ingre-
dients to the edge of the pan and
add the butter to the middle of
the skillet. Sprinkle the flour over
the melted butter and cook for
about 1 minute. Whisk in the
stock, mustard, soy sauce, and
Worcestershire. Bring up to a
bubble, combine with the meat
mixture, adjust the salt and pep-
per, and simmer until thickened, 2
to 3 minutes.
Fill the potato shells with the
beef and veggie mixture, then top
each of them with the reserved
mashed potatoes. Transfer to a
baking sheet and sprinkle with
the remaining cheese. Pop the
potatoes under the broiler until
the cheese is melted and the tops
are golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.

HOW TO CONTACT:
Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Ange-
les, CA 90069
For more Sudoku go to www.timesleader.com
O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: I am 67
and my roommate is
62. He and I could
be out dating every
night of the week. I
think it’s because we
know how to treat
women.
I hear other men our age complain
they can’t get a date or find the
“right” woman. They say they are
lonely, always being “used,” etc. I tell
them: Get a life!
My buddy and I think in terms of
what would please the lady. Other
guys think a romantic date is grab-
bing a bite at a fast-food restaurant,
renting a violent movie, or flopping at
the woman’s house and falling asleep
after she’s made him a home-cooked
meal. I say: Learn to dance, get some
new clothes, ask a woman what her
interests are.
A lady once told me, “You don’t
need a woman. You are a great cook,
and you iron better than I do.” My
answer to her was, “Those are not the
things I need a lady for.”
So, Abby, my advice to lonely old
men is this: Get your act together! As
Auntie Mame said, “Life is a banquet,
and most poor suckers are starving to
death.”
— Having a Peach of a
Time in Georgia
Dear Having A Peach: Thank you
for your enlightened philosophy. My
crystal ball tells me that neither you
nor your buddy will ever be starving
for food at the banquet of life.
Dear Abby: What do you do when
your future in-laws tell other relatives
that they intend to ruin your upcom-
ing wedding? They are upset because
they were not included in the wed-
ding party. My future mother-in-law
let it be known she’s dressing up like
a hooker!
I have family members who are po-
lice officers coming to the wedding.
The only idea I can come up with to
prevent it is to ask them to guard the
door of the church, and if need be,
escort these unruly people out before
they can raise a ruckus.
As you might have gathered, my
fiance’s parents don’t want me to
marry their son.
— On the Verge of a Nervous
Breakdown
Dear On The Verge: Take a deep
breath and talk to your fiance about
eloping. Once your in-laws accept the
fact that the knot has already been
tied, you can host a lovely reception.
When the time comes, give them
the benefit of the doubt and assume
they’ll behave themselves.
Dear Abby: At a cocktail party last
night, the hostess handed me a glass
of wine. When I started to take a sip,
I noticed the glass was filthy. My im-
mediate reaction was, “Alcohol kills
germs.” But the thought of putting
the glass to my mouth was distaste-
ful, so I told her the wine was “too
sweet for my taste.” She then handed
me another glass of wine, and THAT
one was as dirty as the first! How
should I have handled it?
— Not Crystal Clear in Wisconsin
Dear Not Crystal Clear: The first
time it happened, you should have
said, “Oops! This glass didn’t make
it through the dishwasher” and re-
turned it to your hostess. When it
happened again, you should have
said, “... this one, too.”
DEAR ABBY

To receive a collection of Abby’s most memo-
rable — and most frequently requested — po-
ems and essays, send a business-sized, self-
addressed envelope, plus check or money
order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear
Abby’s “Keepers,” P.O. Box 447, Mount Mor-
ris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You will
accomplish what you couldn’t
quite finish yesterday. The timing
wasn’t right, or you just weren’t
comfortable enough to open
your mind to the possibilities.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). If
that thing you are holding on to
“just in case” doesn’t find said
“case” today, you should let it
go. Something has to give in
order for you to make way for
the future.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll
want to keep track of the beauty
in this day. Take a photo of the
view that pleases you, or record
that nature sound that your
mind interprets as music.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). A
project is turning into more than
you wanted to take on, but it’s all
doable. You may “hit the wall,”
but it’s not going to stop you.
Take a break, and come back to
it later. You’ll have success the
second time around.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You will
overhear something that wasn’t
intended for your ears. This will
turn out to be fortunate, indeed.
It’s as though you were meant to
get the information, even if oth-
ers didn’t want you to know.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Pay
careful attention to your work,
focusing on only one task at a
time. A slip of the finger is all
it takes to send an accidental
e-mail, erase your work or worse.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your
even temper isn’t a steadfast
rule. You are occasionally prone
to sudden outbursts of passion,
both surprising and impressive
to those around you. When you
care, you really show it.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Each
decision you make gives birth
to a new reality, even the small
gestures. Cleaning up stray litter
from a public space or smiling
at a stranger will bring utopia
closer to hand for everyone.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
You are adventurous and fun-
loving and will meet those who
enjoy lively social contact as
much as you do. Some of the
day will be spent planning your
participation in parties.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You
have a zesty approach to work,
and others get a refreshing
boost of energy being around
you. You are multidimensional,
and your talent reflects this.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You
have a vision of the ideal future.
You’ll meet with those who share
your strong desire to make a
difference in the world. You’ll
discuss current affairs and work
together to make a brighter
tomorrow.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You are
willing to put in effort and ideas
whether or not others appreciate
and build on your contributions.
However, it always feels better
when they do — which is what
you experience today.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (March 16).
This year is exciting and very
different from last year. Work
opens your horizons. You will
gain levels of refinement and be
accepted into exclusive situa-
tions. A June romance is just the
beginning. In July, people learn
from you. You have a special
spark with Cancer and Scorpio
people. Your lucky numbers are:
5, 42, 25, 49 and 44.

Straight talk and a fair deal
fromPennstar Bank.
We understand that when it comes to home equities,
people want options that are straightforward.
So, here it is. Straight up.
We’re ofering a home equity line of credit with a
six-month introductory rate of just 1.00% APR for
a limited time.
Great fxed rates on home equity loans are also
available now.
Looking for a bank that puts customers frst? Stop by,
call or visit us online today.
* To qualify for the promotional rate, a minimum line of $20,000 must be approved for a new home equity line of credit. Customers with an existing home equity line of credit from NBT Bank or
Pennstar Bank must be approved for an additional $7,500 to qualify. Residence must be a 1-4 family owner-occupied dwelling with a maximum loan to value of 80%. Rates shown are as of March
14, 2011. The 1% Annual Percentage Rate (APR) is an introductory rate for 6 months, and after that your rate can be as low as 3.25% APR. The APR after the introductory discount period is variable
and may change monthly based upon changes in the prime rate but will not fall below 3.25% APR or exceed 15.90% APR. The Prime Rate is the highest Prime Rate offered in The Wall Street Journal
based on the tenth day of the preceding month. Property insurance is required and title insurance is required for all loans over $100,000 in a first lien position and may be required for loans with
aggregation over $100,000 when the home equity is in a second lien position. If you cancel the line of credit within 4 years, you must reimburse us the third-party fees paid in connection with open-
ing the line. Closing costs paid to third parties generally total between $427 and $3,233 in New York and $167 and $1,989 in Pennsylvania and Vermont. See your tax advisor for details on the tax
deductibility of interest. Offer subject to credit approval. Additional terms and conditions may apply depending on the type of collateral and other loan terms offered or chosen.

demned is (are) also shown on the aforesaid Schedule. The

demned is designated on the Declaration of Taking heretofore
filed. The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is not required to post

sation estimated by the Commonwealth to be due all parties in

ty herein involved inform the District Right-of-Way Administrator

ed just compensation has been deposited into court, the said

od of six years of the date of payment into court, the court shall
order the fund or any balance remaining to be paid to the
