WILKES-BARRE — Bob Brodbeck watched as the first bricks began to fall from the Hotel Sterling just before 7 a.m. Thursday. Brodbeck, 89, said he was there to “watch history come down.” He and others lined West Market Street as Brdaric Excavating Co. of Luzerne began to tear down the condemned landmark. The demolition of the 115-year-old, seven-story building is expected to take 30 days and another month to clear the site for future development. “We all gotta go,” Brodbeck said. “I’ll go, too. But not like this. I’ll go peacefully. Nothing lasts forever.” “A lot of beautiful ladies pass on. Now this beautiful lady is going,” Brodbeck, of WilkesBarre, said. John Brdaric, owner of the

from operating the crane. “These walls were really weak back here.” Brdaric said his crew will work toward River Street and then continue along River to Market to complete the demolition. River Street will have to be closed at that time, he said. Truckloads of steel were removed and will be sold for salvage. Brdaric said the value of the steel was a main reason why he was able to lower his successful bid of $419,000 by almost half when the project was re-bid by the city. “We’re on schedule,” Brdaric said as he walked back to the crane to continue the demolition.

HUNLOCK TWP. — A fire at a home along Hartman Road on Thursday was deadly. Hunlock Creek Fire Chief Chris Meeker said firefighters responded to 154 Hartman Road when a relative reported the fire just after 3:30 p.m. The homeowner was thought to be trapped inside. “I believe it was a cousin, possibly, who actually spotted the fire. He was screaming in the front yard, and we actually have a member (of the volunteer fire company) who lives right down the street, heard him screaming, came outside and saw the smoke,” Meeker said. “He came running over, but the smoke and fire was just too much to try and get in.” When firefighters arrived on-scene, Meeker said, flames were coming out of the first and second floors in the rear of the two-story home. Once inside the home, firefighters performed a search and located the body of the homeowner in the living room, Meeker said. Luzerne County Acting Coroner William Lisman later identified the deceased as 54-year-old Kent S. Brace. Lisman See FIRE | 12A

Is Huber Breaker also destined for scrap heap?

JERRY LYNOTT

WILKES-BARRE — The rusting hulk of the Huber Breaker is destined for demolition and worth more in pieces than left standing as one of the most visible reminders of when coal was king. The towering structure in Ashley where anthracite was sorted, cleaned and shipped to market as Blue Coal is among the assets up for auction next month. Its owner, No. 1 Contracting Corp., reached a deal with debtors to sell the mineral rights, real estate and person-

al property at an Aug. 22 auction in U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, Wilkes-Barre. Proceeds of the sale will pay off taxes and cover a small fraction of the millions of dollars in debts owed. A June 18 filing stressed the urgency of the sale, saying it should take place “as quickly as possible in order to preserve the value therein for the benefit of all.” The breaker has been shut down since the late 1970s.

FAIRVIEW TWP. — Travis Arnold Deeks, 43, of Phelps Street, Scranton, was arraigned Wednesday on charges of terroristic threats and harassment. He was jailed at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $5,000 bail. Police allege Deeks sent several threatening text messages to an exgirlfriend on North Main Street on July 3, according to the criminal complaint. EXETER — Donald J.

Two W-B men sentenced in visa-fraud case
Shell companies were cover for foreign gas station workers
[email protected]

ROGER DUPUIS

SCRANTON — Two Indian nationals living in Wilkes-Barre must pay nearly $2 million and face deportation in connection with a visa-fraud and moneylaundering scheme involving workers at a Kidder Street gas station. Sudheer Bandi, 45, and Ram Challa, 44, appeared Thursday before U.S. District Court Judge A. Richard Caputo, the final two defendants to be sentenced in a 2009 case in which eight others also pleaded guilty to various charges. Caputo sentenced the men to time served and two years of supervised release, and they must forfeit $1.9 million each in business proceeds. Both men also face deportation from the United States, said Heidi Havens, spokeswoman for U.S. Attorney Peter J. Smith. They were arrested in 2009 after investigation into a conspiracy under which

participants created a fictitious computer consulting company as a cover, while actually working as gas station clerks. According to prosecutors, the conspirators incorporated a business entity known as JMR, and sought to convince Labor Department and Homeland Security officials that “they were unable to procure U.S. workers of a certain ability and experience or expertise … and therefore needed to hire foreign nationals.” The men successfully applied for 17 separate visas for prospective JMR employees, prosecutors said. But the address listed for JMR, 890 Kidder St., Suite C-02, was the location of a Sunoco gas station they operated, and nothing else. Prosecutors said they funneled money from other businesses they controlled through JMR accounts to give the illusion of a working business, while the immigrants they sponsored were working as gas station clerks. Bandi and Challa were

charged in November 2009 and pleaded guilty in December 2009. Others in the case included: • Ranga R. Junuthula, 43, of Montvale, N.J., who was charged in April 2010 and pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit both visa fraud and money laundering. Junuthula was sentenced in October 2010 to 14 months’ imprisonment, $5,000 fine and three years of supervised release, and ordered to forfeit $1.9 million. • Ramana Bandreddi, 43, of Herdon, Va., who was charged in July 2012 and pleaded guilty to aiding and abetting the giving of false statements in naturalization, citizenship or registry of aliens. Bandreddi was sentenced in January 2012 to one year of probation and a $3,500 fine and ordered to forfeit $14,025. • Krishna Koteru, 44, of Parlin, N.J., who was charged in July 2012 and pleaded guilty to aiding and abetting the giving of false statements in naturalization, citizenship

or registry of aliens. Koteru was sentenced in January 2012 to one year of probation and a $3,000 fine and ordered to forfeit $21,865. • Ravi Kumar Nakirikanti, 40, of Malvern, who was charged in July 2012 and pleaded guilty to conspiracy to provide false statements in naturalization, citizenship or registry of aliens. Nakirikanti was sentenced in March to one year of probation and a $3,000 fine and ordered to forfeit $122,340. • Venkat Varkala Reddy, 42, of Edison, N.J., who was charged in July 2012 and pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit visa fraud. Reddy was sentenced in February 2013, to one year probation and a $2,000 fine. Reddy also was ordered to forfeit $1,496. • Raja Voggu, 43, of Devon, who was charged in June 2012 and pleaded guilty to conspiracy to provide false statements in naturalization, citizenship or registry of aliens. Voggu was sentenced in December 2012 to one year of probation and ordered to forfeit $28,563.

Auto vandalism sweeping Lehman,Jackson townships
[email protected]

JON O’CONNELL

More than 20 vehicles in Jackson and Lehman townships have been vandalized within the last month, according to Lehman Township police officer Mark Liparela. “We just had one last night,” Liparela said. “(Someone) put an ax through a window.” Liparela said it appears the unidentified vandals have a distinct method of operation. They go after

late-model cars parked near the road. He said no cars parked up long driveways or inside garages have been damaged. “It’s definitely more than one person. It’s very random. (They’re not going after any one demographic of car owners but) they are targeting newer, nicer vehicles,” Liparela said. While some vandalism did happen in Lehman, it certainly was not as frequent, Liparela said. “We had vandalism like that, but not

every night,” he said. The vandals tend to use large rocks to smash windows and dig deep gouges in paint finishes. “They’re costing us a lot of money,” Liparela said. Police have asked residents in both townships to be vigilant, keeping outdoor lights on all night and checking on any odd noise. Residents are also asked to report any damage immediately and always lock car doors. Liparela said that if some-

one spots a vandal in the act, he or she should look for make, model and color of the vandal’s car and try to get a license plate number. “Anything is better than nothing. Right now we have nothing,” he said. Anyone with information should contact Lehman Township police at (570) 675-1483 and Jackson Township police at (570) 675-8500. If no one answers, Liparela asked that callers leave a voice message or dial 911.

Halliburton agrees to plead guilty in 2010 Gulf oil spill
The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Halliburton Energy Services has agreed to plead guilty to destroying evidence in connection with the 2010 Gulf oil spill, the Department of Justice said Thursday. Federal officials said in a news release that a criminal information charging Halliburton with one count of destruction of evidence was filed in federal court in

Louisiana. Halliburton has agreed to pay the maximum fine, be on probation for three years and continue to cooperate with the government’s criminal investigation, according to the news release, which did not list the amount of the fine. The Houston-based company has also made a $55 million voluntary contribution to the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation. It was

not a condition of the court agreement, the news release says. The company said in a statement Thursday night that it had agreed to plead guilty “to one misdemeanor violation associated with the deletion of records created after the Macondo well incident, to pay the statutory maximum fine of $200,000 and to accept a term of three years probation.” The Justice Department

has agreed it will not pursue further criminal prosecution of the company or its subsidiaries for any conduct arising from the 2010 spill, Halliburton’s statement said, adding that federal officials have also “acknowledged the company’s significant and valuable cooperation during the course of its investigation.” The plea agreement is subject to court approval, the company said.

Griffith: Employee who took on extra duties deserving of increase atop $1,000 bonus.
[email protected]

Friday, July 26, 2013 PAGE 3A

IN BRIEF

Casey looks to protect elderly
U.S. Sen. Bob Casey, D-Scranton, pushed Thursday to protect Pennsylvania’s Medicare beneficiaries who may be unknowingly racking up thousands of dollars for skilled nursing care that Medicare doesn’t reimburse. Currently, Medicare will cover post-acute care in a skilled nursing facility only if a patient has three consecutive days of hospitalization as an inpatient, not counting the day of discharge. Because of the uptick in observation cases, Casey patients are enduring lengthier hospital stays in observation status and may unknowingly be treated under outpatient observation status for the entirety of their hospital visit. When this happens, the beneficiaries’ skilled nursing facility benefit is not activated and Medicare will not cover their stay in a nursing home, causing them to face thousands of dollars in bills when they are discharged. Under the Casey-backed, bipartisan plan, the Improving Access to Medicare Coverage Act, “observation” stays will be counted toward the threeday mandatory inpatient stay for Medicare to cover post-hospital nursing home care.

WASHINGTON

Controller doles out $4k raise to worker
Her annual pay will increase from $45,619 to $49,619, records show. “She’s been more than pulling her share of the weight,” he said. “I felt her ability to step up and complete additional work is what merited her salary increase.” Griffith said he lost the deputy position after home rule’s 2012 implementation, and the position is again vacant because Daniel Chipego recently resigned after about three months on the job. He had to re-advertise the deputy post after receiving only one applicant who did not meet his qualifications. Rationale for raise Griffith relies heavily on Llewellyn because he has only one other employee in the office, a unionized auditor, he said. He is awaiting applications from human resources so he can fill a vacant audit clerk position. The administration can’t prevent him from awarding Llewellyn’s raise because the expense won’t cause him to exceed the salary portion of his council-approved budget, he said. The two unfilled positions left him with extra money for the raise. Chief County Solicitor C. David Pedri and county Manager Robert Lawton concurred with his legal interpretation. Griffith will request the same overall budget allotment of around $350,000 next year, he said, but will reduce his spending in a non-payroll category by $4,000 to fund the raise. Griffith is slated to run against Democratic controller challenger Michelle Bednar in November and is fighting illegal wiretapping charges filed against him. He expressed discomfort over his ability to give raises expense with detail, but it’s not required,” Griffith said. “That’s one of the main reasons I opposed the charter, because it eliminated those checks and balances.” Llewellyn was first hired by the county in January 2004 as an administrative assistant for then-Commissioner Greg Skrepenak at $38,000 per year. She previously worked for 13 years at Sallie Mae Servicing Corp. in offices in Washington, D.C., Tampa, Fla., and WilkesBarre as a senior auditor and process control supervisor. Llewellyn was promoted to a newly created $40,315 budget/finance deputy chief job in September 2006. She resigned from that position in February 2008 and was hired in the controller’s office. Shortly after her hiring, Llewellyn said she never expected to obtain a county job because she was apolitical, had no powerful contacts and wasn’t related to any county insiders.

JENNIFER LEARN-ANDES Luzerne County Controller Walter Griffith has approved a $4,000 salary raise for his senior auditor, Patricia Llewellyn, and the administration can’t stop him. The raise sticks out because county officials gave the county’s roughly 300 nonunion employees, including Llewellyn, $1,000 bonuses earlier this year to compensate them for going five years without pay increases. County officials promised to develop a performance evaluation system for the future awarding of pay raises if money becomes available for salary increases. Llewellyn is worthy of an immediate raise, said Griffith, because she has twice performed additional duties when he had no deputy controller.

Marshals Service finds fugitive

SCRANTON

U.S. Marshal Martin J. Pane said the U.S. Marshals Service arrested Thomas McCarty in a remote section of Wyoming County near Tunkhannock on Thursday without incident. McCarty, 48, was being sought by the Pennsylvania Board of Probation and Parole for violating the conditions of his state parole and had been a fugitive for eight years. McCarty has a criminal history dating back almost 30 years for sexassault offenses in Lycoming and Northumberland counties, Pane said in a news release. In March 2005, McCarty stopped reporting to state parole authorities and disappeared. In May 2005, the state Board of Probation and Parole classified him as a fugitive from justice. Deputy U.S. Marshals from Scranton and Williamsport, along with task force personnel, located McCarty at a remote location off of Rockledge Road. McCarty is being lodged at the State Correctional Institution in Waymart.

The Nicholson Heritage Association wants to restore the historic Delaware, Lackawanna and Western railroad station to serve as a visitors center and entrance to the Viaduct Valley Way Scenic Byway in the town. With an Endless Mountains Heritage Region grant through the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, the association will do feasibility study to see what it would cost to restore the building. The station was originally built by one of the DL&W’s predecessors, the Liggett’s Gap Railroad, in 1849. The station permanently closed in 1971. It was sold in 1983 to a local business and was in private use until purchased by the heritage association last year. The feasibility study is one step toward rehabilitating the station. Donations are still needed and can be mailed to the Association at P.O. Box 496, Nicholson, PA 18446. For more information, visit www.nicholsonstation.org.

WILKES-BARRE — Inmate Nathaniel Adderly demanded his jail cell be cleaned, but it wasn’t the right time to ask, Luzerne County Correctional Officer Kristopher Renfer testified Thursday at a preliminary hearing on charges Adderly started a fight with two officers.

O.J. asks panel for leniency

O.J. Simpson pleaded for leniency Thursday, telling a parole panel he deeply regretted the night he robbed two sports memorabilia dealers in a Las Vegas hotel room. Simpson, 66, said he has been a model inmate while serving his time at Lovelock Correction Center 90 miles east of Reno, where he has been since 2008, when he was sentenced to up to 33 years. Simpson was sentenced to consecutive terms on several charges. But some of his sentences were ordered to run concurrently. Even if the Nevada Parole Board ruled in his favor, he would then begin serving sentences attached to other charges.

Pontiff tells slum residents,‘Situations can change, people can change.’
The Associated Press RIO DE JANEIRO — The “slum pope” returned to the slum on Thursday as Pope Francis visited one of Rio de Janeiro’s favelas, telling its residents that the wealthy must do more to end the “culture of selfishness” that has left the poor on the margins of society. Francis, who has said he wants a church that looks out for the less fortunate, received a rapturous welcome during his visit to Varginha, a neighborhood in northern Rio that’s part of a violent region known by locals as the Gaza Strip. Despite heavy security and a cold rain, Francis waded into the cheering crowds and hugged and kissed residents young and old before blessing the altar at the tiny church that serves the community. He prayed before a statue of Brazil’s patron saint, the

Virgin of Aparecida, and met with a family in their squat yellow home. “He gave each of us a rosary, he took photos with everyone and embraced each one,” said Diego Rodrigues, a 26-year-old friend of the da Penha family who received the papal visit. “I think everyone but the pope was speechless!” Francis brought a message of hope, following in the footsteps of Pope John Paul II who visited two such favelas during a 1980 trip to Brazil and Mother Teresa who visited Varginha itself in 1972. Her Missionaries of Charity order have kept a presence in the shantytown ever since. In remarks to a crowd of several thousand Varghina residents, who plodded through a muddy soccer field to welcome him, Francis acknowledged that young people in particular have a sensitivity toward injustice. “You are often disappointed by facts that speak of corruption on the part of people who put their own interests before the common good,” Francis told the crowd. “To you and all, I repeat: Never yield to discouragement, do not lose trust, do not allow your hope to be extinguished. Situations can change, people can change.” It was a clear reference to the violent protests that paralyzed parts of the country in recent weeks as Brazilians furious over rampant corruption and inefficiency within the country’s political class took to the streets. Francis blasted what he said was a “culture of selfishness and individualism” that permeates society today, demanding that those with money and power share their wealth and resources to fight hunger and poverty. He added a last-minute tweak to his busy schedule, meeting with pilgrims from his native Argentina at Rio’s cathedral Thursday afternoon. He told the youngsters to get out into the streets and spread their faith, saying that a church that doesn’t go out and preach becomes a simple NGO, or nongovernmental organization. “And the church cannot be an NGO!” he said to wild applause.

U.S. officials say the Obama administration won’t declare Egypt’s government overthrow a coup, allowing the U.S. to maintain $1.5 billion in annual military and economic aid to the Arab world’s most populous country.

That was the first U.S. action since the military ousted Mohammed Morsi as president, imprisoned him and suspended the constitution.

80 dead in Spain train crash; speed a likelyfactor

House Speaker John Boehner on Thursday elevated his criticism of fellow Republican Rep. Steve King, of Iowa, over King’s suggestion that many unauthorized immigrants are drug runners, calling the comments “deeply offensive and wrong.” Boehner already had issued a written statement earlier in the week condemning King’s comments, but at his weekly news conference he ramped up his criticism even without being asked. The Ohio Republican took the unusual step of calling King out by name, dramatizing the concern among GOP leaders that incendiary comments from the right can tarnish the the party’s image even as lawmakers struggle to find a solution to the immigration debate.

SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA, Spain — A Spanish train that hurtled off the rails and smashed into a security wall as it rounded a bend was going so fast that its cars tumbled off the tracks like dominoes, killing 80 people, according to eyewitness accounts and video footage obtained Thursday. An Associated Press analysis of video images suggests the train might have been traveling at twice the speed limit for that stretch of track. Spain’s government said two probes have been launched into the cause of Wednesday night’s crash near this Christian festival city in northwest Spain. The

Interior Ministry raised the death toll to 80 in what was Spain’s deadliest train wreck in four decades, while 95 remained hospitalized, 36 in critical condition, among them four children. The U.S. State Department said five American citizens were among the injured. Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy, a native of Santiago de Compostela, toured the crash scene alongside rescue workers and went to a nearby hospital to visit those wounded and their families. He said judicial authorities and the Public Works Ministry had launched parallel investigations into what caused the crash. The Interior Ministry, responsible for law and order, ruled out terrorism as a cause. Eyewitness accounts backed by security-camera

PYONGYANG, North Korea — If there was ever any doubt about what happened to the only U.S. Navy ship that is being held by a foreign government, North Korea has cleared it up. It’s in Pyongyang. And it looks like it’s here to stay. With a fresh coat of paint and a new home along the Pothong River, the USS Pueblo, a spy ship seized off North Korea’s east coast in the late 1960s, is expected to be unveiled this week as the centerpiece of a renovated war museum to commemorate what North Korea calls “Victory Day,” the 60th anniversary this Saturday of the signing of the armistice that ended hostilities in the Korean War. The ship is North Korea’s greatest Cold War prize. Its government hopes the Pueblo will serve as a potent symbol of how the country has stood up to the great power of the United States, once in an all-out ground war and now with its push to develop the nuclear weapons and sophisticated missiles it needs to threaten the U.S. mainland. Many of the crew who served on the vessel, then spent 11 months in captivity in North Korea, want to bring the Pueblo home. Throughout its history, they argue, the Navy’s motto has been “Don’t give up the ship.” The Pueblo, in fact, is still listed as a commissioned U.S. Navy vessel, the only one being held by a foreign nation. But with relations generally fluctuating in a narrow band between bad to dangerously bad, the United States has made little effort to get it back. At times, outsiders weren’t even sure where North Korea was keeping the ship or what it planned to do with it. The Pueblo incident is a painful reminder of miscalculation and confusion, as well as the unresolved hostilities that continue to keep the two countries in what seems to be a permanent state of distrust and preparation for another clash, despite the truce that ended the 1950-1953 war. Already more than 40 years old and only lightly armed so it wouldn’t look conspicuous or threatening as it carried out its intelligence missions, the USS Pueblo was attacked and easily captured on Jan. 23, 1968. One U.S. sailor was killed when the ship was strafed by machine gun fire and boarded. The remaining 82, including three injured, were taken prisoner. The North Koreans sailed the Pueblo to the port of Wonsan.

Justice Department to challenge states on voting rights
The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Attorney General Eric Holder announced Thursday that the Justice Department is opening a new front in the battle for voter protections, a response to the Supreme Court ruling that he said dealt a major setback to the Voting Rights Act. In a speech to the National Urban League in Philadelphia, Holder said that as its first move, the department is asking a federal court in San Antonio to require the state of Texas to obtain advance approval before putting future political redistricting changes in place. The attorney general called the Voting Rights Act “the cornerstone of modern civil rights law” and said that “we cannot allow the slow unraveling of the progress that so many, throughout history, have sacrificed so much to achieve.” The Supreme Court, on a 5-4 vote, threw out the most powerful part of the landmark Voting Rights Act, the law that became a major turning point in black Americans’ struggle for equal rights and political power. The move in Texas is the Justice Department’s first

DAMASCUS, SYRIA

The number of dead in Syria’s civil war has passed 100,000, U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said Thursday, calling for urgent talks on ending 2½ years of violence even as President Bashar Assad’s government blasted the United States as an unsuitable peace broker. In the latest example of the relentless carnage, a car bomb killed at least 10 people and wounded 66 in a pro-regime, residential area near the capital. All international attempts to broker a political solution to the Syrian civil war have failed. Despite a stalemate that has settled in for months, both sides still believe they can win the war and have placed impossible conditions for negotiations.

War death toll exceeds 100,000

AttorneyGeneral Eric Holder,speaking at the National Urban League annual conference Thursday in Philadelphia, said the Justice Department is asking a federal court to require the state of Texas to obtain advance approval before putting political redistricting changes in place.

action to further safeguard voting rights following the Supreme Court decision on June 25, said Holder, “but it will not be our last.” “Even as Congress considers updates to the Voting Rights Act in light of the court’s ruling, we plan, in the meantime, to fully utilize the law’s remaining sections to ensure that the voting rights of all American citizens are protected,” Holder said. The requirement to obtain advance approval from either the department or a federal court before changing voting laws is available under the Voting Rights Act when intentional discrimination against voters is found. The section of the Voting Rights Act Holder invoked can be applied to all types of voting changes — from moving the location of a polling

place to imposing stringent requirements such as photo identification at the polls. In the Texas case, the department is not directly intervening but is filing what’s known as a statement of interest in support of the private groups that have filed suit. Holder said that based on evidence of intentional racial discrimination presented last year in a redistricting case in Texas, “we believe that the state of Texas should be required to go through a preclearance process whenever it changes its voting laws and practices.” In Texas, there is a history of “pervasive voting-related discrimination against racial minorities,” Holder added. A three-judge panel in San Antonio has been looking at Texas voting maps since

2011, when the court threw out boundaries drawn by a then-GOP supermajority in the statehouse. An ensuing legal battle between the state and a coalition of minority rights groups wreaked havoc on the 2012 elections in Texas, delaying party primaries that ultimately used temporary maps drawn by the court. Under the direction of GOP Gov. Rick Perry last month, the Legislature ratified those interim maps as permanent over the objection of Democrats, who still believe the maps are biased and underrepresent minorities. Aides to Perry and Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott did not immediately return messages seeking comment.

Juror: Zimmerman got awaywith murder
the associated Press ORLANDO, Fla. — The second juror to speak publicly told ABC News in an interview made available Thursday that she feels George Zimmerman got away with murder for fatally shooting Trayvon Martin, but that there wasn’t enough evidence at trial to convict him under Florida law. Juror B29 told Robin Roberts that she favored convicting Zimmerman of second-degree murder when deliberations began by the six-member, all-women jury. “I was the juror that was going to give them a hung jury,” she said. “I fought to the end.” But by the second day of deliberating, she realized there wasn’t enough proof to convict the 29-year-old neighborhood watch volunteer of a crime. “George Zimmerman got away with murder, but you can’t get away from God,” she said. “And at the end of the day, he’s going to have a lot of questions and answers he has to deal with.” Zimmerman was acquitted earlier this month of second-degree murder and manslaughter charges in the 2012 slaying of the unarmed 17-year-old. The Miami teenager was shot and killed during a confrontation with Zimmerman in Sanford. The case spawned heated national debates about racial profiling She allowed her face to be shown and used her first name, Maddy, unlike Juror B37, who was interviewed on CNN last week with her face obscured. Four jurors, not including the one interviewed by ABC, issued a statement last week saying the opinions expressed by Juror B37 to CNN’s Anderson Cooper did not represent their views. That juror said the actions of Zimmerman and Martin both led to the teenager’s fatal shooting, but that Zimmerman didn’t actually break the law. Juror B29 also told ABC that she didn’t believe race was an issue at the trial. Though the judge so far has refused to release the names or biographical information about the jurors, B29 said she was 36 years old and Puerto Rican. Martin was black and Zimmerman identifies himself as Hispanic. Martin’s parents believe Zimmerman racially profiled their son when he started following him after spotting him walking through the neighborhood where Zimmerman lived and Martin was visiting. B29 said she couldn’t speak for her fellow jurors on the race issue. The other women on the jury were white. Juror B29 is a nursing assistant and mother of eight children who recently moved to Florida from Chicago. She said she feels like she owes Martin’s parents an apology. “I felt like I let a lot of people down, and I’m thinking to myself, ‘Did I go the right way? Did I go the wrong way?’” she said. “As much as we were trying to find this man guilty … They give you a booklet that basically tells you the truth, and the truth is that there was nothing that we could do about it.”

Perry, and her husband, Matthew, Dallas; and two nephews, Adam and Sean Perry, also of Dallas. The family will receive friends 2 to 4 p.m. Saturday at the Harold C. Snowdon Funeral Home Inc., 140 N. Main St., Shavertown.

Obama’s Massive $100M Brain Research Initiative Targets Memory Loss
Drug-free memory discovery yields ‘shocking’results in clinical trial; restores brainpower equal to those up to 15 years younger, all within 30 days!
and brainpower of those up to 15 years younger, all within a 30-day time period. It’s no secret either. The US Patent and Trademark Office has granted the drug-free natural formula a United States patent. “I had such marvelous results that I not only started recommending it to my customers, I even shared it with other physicians!” “It became the best-selling brain health product in my pharmacy and customers were returning to thank me for introducing them to it.” “It felt great to see so many people whose lives were enriched by taking a simple, natural formula.” “With this simple, drug-free formula, we finally have something that we can recommend that is safe and effective. And you don’t need a prescription either!” Recently, Dr. Steiner relocated to another state and was apprehensive about taking the state board of pharmacy jurisprudence examination, a daunting examination that tests a candidate’s mastery of pharmacy law. “I began taking the natural memory compound for two weeks prior to the test, and I passed with flying colors!” “The recall I personally experienced was fantastic,” says Steiner. “It’s a unique process,” he adds, “that pumps the brain full of energizing oxygen, helping improve blood circulation to the brain, while helping to boost key neurotransmitters in the brain responsible for cognitive functioning.” Alternative medicine pioneer, and retired medical school professor, Dr. Robert Heller, personally uses and recommends the formula. PHOENIX, ARIZONA — For readers who fret about their lessthan-perfect memory, or worry about steadily worsening mental powers, your life is about to change. Thanks to President Obama’s massive $100 million B.R.A.I.N. initiative, millions of frustrated Americans who not only lose their car keys, but also forget where they have parked may soon have real, lasting relief.

A Pharmacy Best-Seller

The multi-year program called Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies, or BRAIN, will as part of its initiative, target the symptoms premature mental decline, including poor memory, the inability to maintain focus and concentration, mental fatigue, and brain fog. It has been called the “next great American project,” drawing comparisons to the wildly successful 1990 scientific discovery initiative, the Human Genome Project. Over an estimated ten-year period, Brain Research scientists will ‘map’ the human brain in an unprecedented quest to unravel its mysteries. What President Obama and administration officials failed to tell Americans is that, for many, they don’t have to spend $100 million or wait ten-plus years for a fix for their foggy, forgetful mind. In fact, evidence of a genuine, clinically tested, real, memory pill is here, now. A US-based research firm, Brain Research Labs, has developed and conducted successful human testing on a genuine memory pill. Over a period of a few weeks in a landmark, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial, published in a peer-reviewed journal, scientists observed the formula helping older brains function more youthfully. In many cases, the formula allowed users to match the memory recall speed

Science Attacks Memory Loss

‘Pharmacist of the Year,’ Dr. Gene Steiner, recommends a patented, natural memory compound

What’s the Catch?

Real Memory Pill Exists!

Over the years, the sophisticated three-part formulation has gained the trust of medical doctors, a top clinical pharmacist, and is even a recommended component in an updated version of a legendary Medicare-reimbursed brain health protocol. Preventive Gerontologist, Dr. Arnold Bresky, the man responsible for the Medicare-reimbursed brain tune-up protocol recommends this prescriptionfree memory compound as an integral part of his new Four Pillars of Brain Health program. With more than 45 years behind a pharmacist’s counter, and 25 years in a radio show booth, if Dr. Gene Steiner had a nickel for every time someone asked, “Do you have anything that can improve my memory,” he would be a rich man today. It’s a question he’s heard many times. “This natural memory pill is to an aging, sluggish brain, what a breath of fresh air is to your lungs,” he says. Before prescribing the pill to patients, Dr. Steiner decided to first try it himself. “Within a few days, I can tell you without reservation that my memory became crystal clear,” he says.

Grace K.* of Alabama was in the same boat. “I was having concentration problems and difficulty remembering things. After only one week, I felt mentally energized and more confident in myself! Now, I enjoy reading again. I’ve regained confidence in myself!” Crossword puzzle fanatic, Bobby D.* from western Nevada can’t say enough about his super-fast mental abilities. “Working four crossword puzzles in the morning paper, quicker, has amazed me with the answers just popping into my head! I stand outside myself and wonder where those answers come from!” Anyone who has ever stood in front of a crowd and then, forgot what they were about to say, knows the horror of “drawing a blank.” Professional speaker Sylvia. P.* from California found Brain Research Labs’ memory discovery just in time. “I started having a hard time staying focused and remembering important information.”

“It’s not a drug,” smiles Dr. Heller, “it’s a nutritional supplement that can help a foggy, sluggish brain become sharper, quicker, and healthier.” Head and neck surgeon and psychologist, Paul Nemiroff, PhD, MD, FACS, agrees, adding, “It is truly an amazing breakthrough for memory!” Kasey L.* from Olathe, Kansas says, “I was having trouble finding words in my brain and remembering things. Now I am as sharp as a tack and I have a memory like an elephant. I will never stop taking it.”

WILKES-BARRE —Mayor Tom Leighton called it “a historic day” for the city, but also “a sad day” for the community. As workers from Brdaric Construction Co. began to dismantle the former Hotel Sterling, Leighton talked about the future and the potential for the historic site located at a gateway to the city’s downtown. The mayor said he has heard from potential developers, but he declined to go further, saying it was premature to discuss what might happen once the building is down and the site cleared.

State Rep. Eddie Day Pashinski, D-Wilkes-Barre, called the site “the most valuable real estate in Luzerne County.” He said he’s confident the city will find a quality developer. “Today, we say goodbye to a historic landmark that was a cornerstone of the Diamond City for decades,” Leighton said as workers dismantled the 115-year-old building. “Everyone has a Hotel Sterling story. Some people were married here, some went to a prom here and some people lived and worked here.” Mayor’s connection Leighton talked of his personal attachment to the Sterling — his family’s real estate offices were housed there for decades. “This building is as much a part of my family’s story

here in the city as every other resident,” he said. “We must fondly remember this building’s past, but now we have to move forward for the good of this community.” Leighton said that over the years there were many “wellintentioned attempts” to preserve and salvage the building. “For many reasons, including a severe economic recession that we are still grappling with, those attempts were unsuccessful,” he said. The three-term mayor said the city and the region should “look upon this as a unique generational opportunity.” He said not many people are given the chance to design and construct a building that will stand for the next 100 years and be a catalyst for economic and recreational development. “Everyone gathered here today is committed to mak-

ing this project succeed for the good of us all,” Leighton said. “Whatever building that rises from this site will be respectful of the history of the Hotel Sterling and be in keeping with the integrity of the entire River Street Historic District.” The new development, he said, will take time, patience, creativity and dedication to achieve the desired ends. “There’s a $30 million riverfront park (River Common) across the street,” Pashinski said. “The potential for development is endless. We have to assure that we find the best option out there.” Legal battle pending Leighton said CityVest, a nonprofit corporation, still owns the property, and the city will have to engage in a legal battle to secure it.

Wilkes-Barre Mayor Tom Leighton talks to the media Thursday at the Hotel Sterling demolition site.

The mayor wouldn’t discuss details, but indicated that liens will be filed with foreclosure probably being the city’s best option. The Sterling had been vacant since 1998. The building suffered severe damage when the Susquehanna

River rose to never-beforeseen level in September 2011 and although the levee system held, considerable water seeped into it. The city then condemned the site and set up traffic detours to protect motorists and pedestrians.

Convict appeals for return of gun license
SHEENA DELAZIO
[email protected]

WILKES-BARRE — A Hazleton man convicted of involuntary manslaughter in the shooting death of another man in August 2009 has asked that police return personal items to him — including a license to carry firearms — since has been released from jail. Johan Pujols, 26, was convicted after a February 2011 trial and sentenced a month later to 2½ to 5 years in state prison. Prosecutors say Pujols was charged in an Aug. 1, 2009, shooting in which police say he fired multiple shots from a .380-caliber semi-automatic handgun, killing Yeury Manuel Colon, 25, and injuring Luis Perez-Rodriguez, then 23, outside Club 570 on Stockton Road in Hazleton. Pujols was dating Justine Arcely, who is the mother of PerezRodriguez’s child, police said. Perez-Rodriguez told investigators he was talking to Pujols in the nightclub when Edwin Leon, a friend of Pujols, started arguing with Pujols. Bouncers removed Pujols, Perez-Rodriguez and Leon from the club. Pujols and Colon, who was at the club, walked away as Perez-Rodriguez and Leon began fighting in the parking lot. PerezRodriguez told investigators that Pujols returned and started shooting, hitting him in the abdomen, leg and arm. Pujols’ attorney, Joseph Sklarosky Sr., filed court papers Thursday requesting to have belongings returned to Pujols that were taken during search warrants, now that Pujols has served the minimum

sentence and has been placed on parole. Those items include $1,960, jewelry, a gold Rolex watch, a license to carry Pujols firearms, a sword, a knife and sneakers. Pujols is not permitted

to possess a gun due to the involuntary manslaughter conviction, according to state law. Sklarosky wrote his client is the owner of a pawn shop on Alter Street in the city, and the items taken in the search warrant were from Pujols’ West First Street

home and his business. After Pujols’ sentencing in March 2011, Sklarosky immediately appealed it to the state Superior Court. The higher court affirmed Pujols sentence in July 2012. County Judge Tina Polachek Gartley scheduled a Sept. 30 hearing to consider Pujols’ request.

Freedom of man charged with sex crimes short-lived
SHEENA DELAZIO
[email protected]

WILKES-BARRE – The freedom of a man facing sexual assault charges in Luzerne County and Michigan was cut short Thursday. David Zarn, 46, of Wright Township, was able to post 10 percent of a $50,000 bail amount Zarn – reduced from $100,000 Wednesday by Luzerne County Judge Lesa Gelb – and released from the county prison around 1 p.m. But, prosecutors, who fought to have the bail amount remain the same at a hearing they were notified of after short notice Wednesday, successfully argued in court papers filed early Thursday to have Zarn returned to jail. Then, county Judge David Lupas signed an order at 9:45 a.m. Thursday throwing out Gelb’s bail reduction ruling and order-

ing Zarn to be held at the county prison without bail. Zarn was back at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility later Thursday. Authorities from Michigan were scheduled to transport Zarn to Detroit today to face charges because Zarn waived an extradition hearing. But, Zarn’s visit to Michigan won’t happen until after a hearing scheduled for 8:45 a.m. Monday. Zarn’s attorney, Joseph Sklarosky Sr., filed a request to withdraw the waiver of the extradition hearing Thursday afternoon. The bail issue began around 10:30 a.m. Wednesday when Sklarosky filed a petition requesting the bail reduction. “David Zarn is innocent of all these charges both in Pennsylvania and Michigan and intends to vigorously defend against such false

charges,” Sklarosky wrote. Sklarosky stated the charges were “vicious and bogus.” Judge Thomas Burke scheduled a hearing for noon Wednesday before Gelb. Prosecutors wrote in their Thursday filing that because the hearing was scheduled on such short

notice, the prosecutor and detective in the case could not attend and prosecutors did not have time to respond to the filing. First Assistant District Attorney Samuel Sanguedolce appeared at the hearing where he requested a continuance of the hearing,

which was denied by Gelb. Gelb reduced Zarn’s bail, imposing a number of conditions, and a bail bondsman was present to post Zarn’s bail. Sanguedolce and Deputy District Attorney Alexis Falvello wrote in their Thursday filing that Zarn

faces a possible sentence of life in jail on the Michigan charges. “Pursuant to Pennsylvania law, (Zarn) is not entitled to bail with respect to the extradition matter,” the prosecutors wrote. In a criminal complaint outlining the charges Zarn

faces in Michigan included in the prosecutors filing, Zarn allegedly sexually assaulted two girls between 2002 and 2006 in Detroit. Wright Township police and county detectives allege Zarn sexually assaulted the same two girls repeatedly, charging Zarn in October.

Man charged with taking church’s lawn equipment

WILKES-BARRE — Lawn equipment left outside a church’s garage was “there for the taking,” city police allege Matthew Collins told them. Collins, 23, of West Ross Street, Wilkes-Barre, was arraigned Thursday on charges he stole a Craftsman leaf vacuum, a Honda lawn mower and a Stihl trimmer from St. Nicholas Roman Catholic Church on South Washington Street on Monday. Police allege Collins sold the lawn equipment at pawn shops for money to support a heroin addiction. Collins was charged with burglary, criminal trespass and receiving stolen property. He was arraigned by District Judge Diana Malast in Plains Township and jailed at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $5,000 bail. According to the criminal

complaint: The Rev. John Victoria reported on Tuesday that someone had entered an unattached garage near the church and took lawn maintenance equipment. Police tracked the equipment to Rocky’s Trading Post on South Main Street. A bill of sale allegedly states Collins sold the machines at the trading post and provided his identification card, which was copied, according to the complaint. The machines were returned to the church, police said. Police arrested Collins when he returned to the trading post on Wednesday. Police allege in the complaint Collins expressed remorse for stealing from the church. He told officers that in his defense, “the church did leave the items outside the garage for the taking,” the complaint states. A preliminary hearing is scheduled on Tuesday.

Man charged in alleged child abduction attempt
[email protected]

EDWARD LEWIS

PITTSTON — A man accused of attempting to lure a child into his car earlier this year will face charges in Luzerne County Court. After a preliminary hearing Wednesday, District Judge Andrew Barilla forwarded to county court two counts of harassment and a single count of luring a child into a vehicle against John Walter Cheek.

Cheek, 32, of Hampton, Va., remains jailed at the county prison for lack of $100,000 bail. Cheek allegedly tried to get an 11-year-old boy into his car in the 100 block of Broad Street on Feb. 3. The boy ignored Cheek, who got out of his car and further tried to persuade the boy to get in, police allege. The boy ran home to his mother, who called police. Cheek was captured by U.S. Marshals in Hampton, Va., on Feb. 8.

Our OpiniOn: landmark gOne

Hotel Sterling: It couldn’t be saved,so let’s move on
The Hotel Sterling is being razed. Long may her memory reign, huzzah, huzzah. Now let’s move on. There has been an abundance of hand-wringing about the landmark structure and for good reason – the Sterling stood as a symbol of WilkesBarre’s heyday, when the streets were packed with shoppers and residents, the menus included foi gras and consomme and women and men wore hats. And not sideways. Those were the days. But those days are the past of a long, long time ago. We can cherish the memory, but we need to move forward. The Hotel Sterling suffered from neglect for years, well before the nonprofit CityVest entered the picture. Let the questions continue about the allocation of taxpayer money to CityVest to stabilize and save the building. Obviously stabilization didn’t work. On Thursday heavy machinery made short work of the masonry walls and steel beams. But the writing may have been on the wall long before graffiti marred the sides of the building at River and Market streets. That location is no longer the only gateway to the city. Population shifts have changed that. The location, size of the project and numerous other factors — including a sputtering economy — didn’t help to make the Sterling a prime building to rehab. While it was a landmark, experts generally agree that the Sterling isn’t an outstanding example of architecture. And it hasn’t been much of a hotel or restaurant in a generation. What the Sterling does represent is a time when people could speak proudly of Wilkes-Barre. Dreams and memories aren’t enough to get us on the path back to that pride. There needs to be a plan. An old structure can be saved only with a plan that includes realistic use and funding. An example a few blocks away was the transformation of the Paramount Theatre rehabbed in 1985 and 1986 into the Kirby Center through a combination of private donations, taxpayer money and enormous public support. The Kirby Center has had its ups and downs, but it continues to find a place to thrive through thoughtful management. We should try to protect and even save historic buildings. Even plain, old buildings add charm to the community. But every project needs a realistic plan, particularly when taxpayer funds are involved. For many reasons, that never materialized for the Hotel Sterling. So three cheers for the Hotel Sterling. Now let’s get the traffic moving again.

Dairy farmers still need a cost of production pricing formula
Despite the remark made by an official of the National Milk Producer Federation when he claimed that nearly all dairy farmers enthusiastically supported the Dairy Security Act which is contained in the Senate’s version of the Farm Bill, we still contend that the average dairy farmer still wants a new pricing formula that covers the dairy farmer’s cost of production. Recent reports from California indicate that a number of people in California are growing more concerned that present pricing formulas used to price milk are just not adequate. Then why can’t dairy farmers have a price for their milk that covers their cost? Many people seem to forget that the value of milk used for manufactured dairy products is the same in all federal orders. As almost everyone knows now the U.S.D.A. surveys a certain number of milk manufacturing plants across the U.S. that manufacture different milk products to determine the price these plants are selling their dairy products for on the market. However, when the U.S. Department of Agriculture determines the value of these products to determine the prices paid to dairy farmers, they subtract out a certain established fee, called a make allowance, which eliminates nearly $2.00 per cwt from the dairy farmers’ pay price. This fee is really a credit to manufacturing plants to cover their operations! If this is OK for the manufacturing plants, then why can’t the same philosophies be applied to the dairy farmers’ prices? Why not use the national average cost of production of our dairy farmers to establish the value or milk used for manufacture of dairy products? Some say that all dairy farmers have different costs of operations. This is true, but it’s also true that manufacturing plants have a different cost of operations. But don’t they all pay the dairy farmer the same inadequate price for milk used for manufactured dairy products? It’s time the dairy farmers require the same consideration as the milk plants. There is much controversy over supply management for dairy farmers. Really, a supply management plan should only be implemented when an oversupply of milk is being produced. Such a program can be found in the Federal Milk Marketing Improvement Act (Sen. Bob Casey’s S1640). Why not give this program a try? Remember this program will be paid for by the dairy farmers who produce more milk than the market needs. If excessive milk products are manufactured, they will be purchased and distributed to the needy (extra imports of unneeded dairy products would be addressed in the same program). All dairy farmers must immediately contact your Washington representatives and senators and tell them this is the program you need and want. All House members can be contacted by calling (202) 225-3121 and all senators at (202) 224-3121. Don’t delay! It’s your future that is at stake.

We need federal law to shield journalists
One of the ways in which news organizations serve the public is by disclosing facts the government would prefer to hide. Leaks from insiders are a crucial way to let the people know what their leaders are doing. But sometimes the news media’s search for information collides with the government’s desire to keep secrets — to avoid embarrassment, to safeguard what it sees as highly sensitive material or simply to control the public narrative. When that happens, journalists often wind up in the cross hairs of prosecutors — which is bad for the journalists and often bad for the citizenry. Lately this phenomenon has been proliferating. In May, Americans learned that the Justice Department had secretly seized phone records from The Associated Press in an investigation of leaks about an airliner bomb plot in Yemen. Justice also got a search warrant for emails sent by a Fox News reporter over a leak about North Korea. Last week, a federal appeals court panel ruled that a reporter for The New York Times must testify about his sources for his account, published in his book, of a CIA operation targeting Iran’s nuclear program. A dissenting judge said the ruling “severely impinges on the press and the free flow of information in our society.” But there is a ray of light amid the gloom. After the AP subpoena surfaced, President Barack Obama ordered the Justice Department to review its policies on going after information from journalists. Now, in response, Attorney General Eric Holder has announced new guidelines that would appreciably curtail the power of prosecutors in such cases. The new policy creates a presumption that prosecutors will notify news organization about demands for

Other OpiniOn: the media

records. The sole exception comes where they can show that giving notice would jeopardize an investigation. “Only the rare case,” it says, would “justify a delayed notification.” It also narrows the circumstances in which a search warrant can be sought — and requires the attorney general to approve such requests. Changes like these offer some hope. David Anderson, a law professor at the University of Texas at Austin, told Reuters the changes would make a “substantial difference.” Still, they can’t impede an overzealous attorney general determined to get around them. Being a matter of executive discretion, they also can be discarded at will. A stronger safeguard would be a federal law to shield journalists from prosecutorial demands — following the practice of 49 states. The Justice Department would then be legally bound to respect the legitimate rights of the press. The administration endorsed this concept in 2009, and Holder reiterated that support this month. A shield law should at least limit forced disclosures to genuinely harmful leaks that can’t be traced without the testimony of the journalist — and then only if the harm exceeds the value of public knowledge. At most, such demands should be a last resort. Most news media, however, would prefer absolute immunity for such requests. Reporters should not be punished for doing their jobs. It’s the job of the press to ferret out secrets, which often are essential to give citizens an accurate understanding of what is being done in their name. If the government can’t prevent leaks, it shouldn’t impose on journalists to make up for its failure. The Justice Department has taken a big step in the right direction. Congress needs to go further.

Writer offers ways to bolster bingo
Sunday’s edition of The Times Leader (July 14) had an article describing how local bingo attendance has gradually declined. I was disappointed that the article did not offer the reader a bingo schedule. I know many people who would enjoy bingo, but who have no idea where and when it is played. To echo a point made in the article, not only does bingo help nonprofits raise funds, but it also builds community. Interestingly, bingo has gained popularity in some areas of the country (for example Houston, Texas), where younger players are attending. In Baltimore, there is a popular bar that plays bingo on Wednesday nights. I have two ideas to help bingo make a comeback in our area: 1) Local businesses can offer

prizes. For example, winning a free dinner or a gift card to the grocery store is just as exciting as winning cash, and sponsors can get noticed. 2) The Times Leader’s Guide should provide a listing of local bingo halls, days and times of games, so that the reader knows where to play! Who knows, participation might increase.

Keep food stamps as part of farm bill
Earlier this month the U.S. House of Representatives, on a partyline vote, broke with tradition by stripping from the farm bill the Supplementary Nutrition Assistance Program (food stamps). What’s left in the bill is billions of dollars of subsidies mostly for farming conglomerates. The U.S. Senate passed a much more balanced bill

last month. The farm bill sets U.S. agricultural, food and resource conservation policy for the next five years. Over the past 18 years, our government has doled out an average of $7 billion per year of taxpayer funds to support the livestock and dairy industries. Instead, their products should be taxed to reimburse state and federal governments for the uncounted billions in increased medical costs and lost productivity associated with their consumption. Conversely, a sound national nutrition program based on vegetables, whole grains, legumes, fruits and nuts can save additional billions in reduced social costs. I am all in favor of reducing our national deficit, government waste and medical costs. But that’s not gonna happen by taking nutritious food from the mouths of 47 million of our society’s least privileged members.

Workers with Brdaric Excavating Co. of Luzerne take a lunch break on the first day of demolition of the Hotel Sterling on Thursday.

Sterling
From page 1A lot of people, I wish it could have been restored.” Bonczek said he was a member of a magic club that met at the Sterling. He said one of the best features was the Sterling’s 100-item smorgasbord. As he headed off to run errands and visit the Farmers Market on Public Square, Bonczek said that taking down the building is “unfortunate,” but judging by its condition, it probably should have been demolished years ago. John Wargo and Veronica Heeter, counselors at the Catholic Youth Center’s Day Camp, brought about 25 firstgraders to witness the historic demolition. “We wanted to show them the historical aspect of Wilkes-Barre,” Wargo said. “We wanted them to see the Sterling before it came down.” Wargo said the children were told about the Sterling and some of its history. The were wide-eyed and inquisitive as the watched the bricks and steel fall to the ground. Ed McLaughlin, retired dean at Luzerne County Community College, worked at the Sterling when he attended King’s College. “I was a room-service waiter,” he said. “I remember a gentleman who stayed on the 13th floor. He always wanted two-minute eggs in the morning.” McLaughlin said the kitchen was located far from the elevators in the old tower section, and by the time he would deliver the eggs to the 13th floor they were cold.

A Brdaric Excavating Co. crane picks away brick and steel beams during the demolition in Wilkes-Barre, expected to last 30 days.

Sad day for some McLaughlin shared many onlookers’ opinion that losing the Sterling was a sad occasion. “It is sad,” he said. “But something should have been done to save it years ago.” Bill Newton, 54, of Wilkes-Barre, was looking to the future. He said he could envision a tall building with condos, retail stores, maybe a hotel and parking. “Imagine the views overlooking the river,” he said. Newton said the old building had outlived its usefulness. “It’s about time it came down,” he said. “There really was no use for it.” One grand feature of the Sterling was an organ that would fill the lobby with holiday music every Christmas and Easter. Walter Yaninas, 63, of Glen Lyon, was a fill-in organist who played the organ in the ’60s and ’70s. “If I was playing today, I’d play the theme from ‘The Lawrence Welk Show’ — ‘Adios, Au Revoir, Auf weidersehn,’ the lyrics of which end with ‘Good Night!’”

From page 1A said he pronounced Brace dead at 5:20 p.m. in the ambulance at the fire scene. Later Thursday evening, Lisman said initial testing determined the cause of death to be carbon monoxide intoxication. However, after consulting with the state police deputy fire marshal, they decided an autopsy was necessary. The autopsy is scheduled to be performed at 9 a.m. Saturday at WilkesBarre General Hospital by forensic pathologist Dr. Gary Ross. Meeker said Brace lived alone and no one else was in the house at the time of the fire. He said there was no obvious indication of what started the fire, and state police fire marshals were on the scene investigating. The fire was under

Paterno underscored the latter point, first rattling off a list of highlights of Joe Paterno’s victorious final years, drawing vigorous applause with reference to a victory over Big Ten rival Ohio State. “But as you know now, so much of that never really happened,” Paterno said. “I may not agree with the current administration and board,” said Paterno. “Ultimately, they will blow away like grains of sand, as all of humanity will, and Penn State will endure.” Paterno, who spent 17 years as with the program, lastly as quarterbacks coach, announced his departure in January 2012 after Bill O’Brien’s appointment as successor to Joe Paterno.

I hope he’s going to share it with me at some point,” Paterno quipped. Paterno also told reporters that he does not know the whereabouts of a Joe Paterno statue that university officials removed from campus last year for storage in an unnamed “secure location.” His appearance Thursday night was also intended to help the local club raise funds for the Struthers Career and Family Center being built at the Penn State WilkesBarre campus. Club President Linda Bartlett was grateful to have landed Paterno as a guest. “I was really thrilled,” she said. Many of those who mingled with Paterno at the event were similarly thrilled — and receptive to his message. “He told me it will be made better,” Wyoming resident John Piszak said Paterno assured him of PSU’s reputation and the sanctions.

The Paterno estate — together with several university trustees, former players and other supporters — filed suit in May against the NCAA, seeking reversal of NCAA sanctions against the school that followed the investigation by former FBI director Louis Freeh. The NCAA, in response, sought this month to have the case dismissed. Paterno, himself a former assistant football coach at the university, said he could not discuss the ongoing legal battle. But in a 40-minute speech he melded reverence for his late father and the university with veiled ref-

When did he know it?” “Even though I have answered those questions

Big Ten guard Urschel making Penn State proud
DEREK LEVARSE
[email protected]

CHICAGO — Having already earned his first master’s degree and working toward a second, John Urschel may already have a claim on being the most accomplished student in the history of Penn State football. Lauded as a brilliant mathematician by the university, Urschel was even more grateful for a different honor he received in the past year. In December, Big Ten football coaches voted him as a first-team all-conference selection on the offensive line.

“I’d say that was my single greatest accomplishment to date. Period,” said Urschel, one of Penn State’s representatives at Big Ten media days in Chicago. “Greatest accomplishment in my whole life.” Why? “Because of all the work I put in to get there.” Urschel understands math as if it were plain English. In many ways, it comes very easily to him. But football has been far more difficult for the senior, who returns to start at right guard in 2013. That struggle is what makes him proudest to be rec-

ognized at the best among his peers. His background on and off the field earned him an invitation to deliver a speech at Thursday’s Big Ten kickoff luncheon, speaking to players, coaches and administrators from all 12 teams in the league. “I wanted to address some of the younger players in the conference and just talk about some of the things you should try to do or aspire to do in your career,” Urschel said. “It’s an honor. It’s very humbling. See PSU | 3B

Lost fly ball forces extra innings
MOOSIC — If not for a seemingly harmless fly ball, the Scranton/WilkesBarre RailRiders would have had a quick victory, their starting pitcher would have earned the win and their outfielder Cody Grice wouldn’t have felt so badly. But when that fly ball got lost in the lights, all hopes of a neat and tidy RailRiders victory disappeared along with it. Instead, the RailRiders went Editor’s note: into the 14th At press time, inning Thursday the RailRiders tied with Toledo, and Toledo Mud Hens were tied 1-1 at press time. All because of at 1-1 in the a ball that should 15th inning. have been an out. With two outs in the seventh inning, Toledo’s Mike Cervenak laced a double into the left field corner. The next batter, Danny Dorn, sent a long but lazy fly ball to right field for what looked like — at least off the bat — the inning’s final out. But RailRiders right fielder Grice never moved. Looking helplessly to the sky, Grice couldn’t pick up the ball as it traveled over his head and dropped behind him. Cervenak charged home, and Dorn raced all the way to third base for a triple. That put Toledo up 1-0 and spoiled a near-perfect night for RailRiders starting pitcher David Huff. Huff didn’t allow a hit through the first See RAILRIDERS | 3B

Braves’ Hudson out for season

AP Sports Writer

NEW YORK — Tim Hudson is out for the season with a broken right ankle, leaving the Atlanta Braves without the leader of their pitching staff as they make a push for the pennant. The team said Hudson will have season-ending surgery in Atlanta once the swelling subsides. The right-hander was injured Wednesday night when Eric Young Jr. of the New York Mets inadvertently stepped on the back of Hudson’s lower right leg while the pitcher was covering first base. “I think we’ve got to rally behind this, as a team and as a pitching staff,” Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said Thursday. “We’re going to miss him, but we’ve got a good club.” Atlanta placed Hudson on the 15-day disabled list and recalled rookie left-hander Alex Wood from Triple-A Gwinnett to start against the Mets. Wood pitched in place

RONALD BLUM NEW YORK — Already in trouble with Major League Baseball, Alex Rodriguez now faces a penalty from his own team. The New York Yankees intend to discipline A-Rod for seeking a second medical opinion on his injured leg without their permission, a person famil- Rodriguez iar with the team’s deliberations said Thursday. The exact penalty had not been determined, the person said, speaking on condition of anonymity to The Associated Press because no statements were authorized. A fine appeared to be the most likely option. The person also said that during a conference call Thursday, the Yankees and Rodriguez agreed to a timetable that would have the third baseman resume minor league rehabilitation games or simulated games next Thursday.

of Paul Maholm, who has a bruised left wrist. The NL East leaders had planned to put Maholm on the DL, but Hudson’s injury opened a roster spot for Wood instead. Maholm could still end up on the disabled list, but the Braves decided to keep him active for now to see how quickly his condition improves. Brandon Beachy is expect-

ed to replace Hudson in the rotation Monday night against Colorado. “I don’t think you can replace Timmy, what he means to us,” Gonzalez said. “We’ll have a young rotation, but hell, you know what? We’ve got to grow up sooner or later.” Beachy, sidelined since See HUDSON | 6B

Rodriguez, who has been sidelined since hip surgery in January, issued a statement earlier in the day saying he wanted to be activated for Friday’s homestand opener against Tampa Bay. But that apparently wasn’t in the Yankees plans. MLB has been investigating Rodriguez as part of its probe of the closed Biogenesis clinic in Florida , accused in media reports of distributing banned performance-enhancing drugs. A suspension appears likely, but Rodriguez could ask the players’ association to contest a drug penalty — making it possible he might not have to serve any time until next year. He is among the dozen or so players under investigation by MLB; he has said in the past that he used PEDs from 2001-03 while with Texas but maintained he has not used them since. Rodriguez hasn’t played a game in the majors this season. Meantime, his return from hip surgery in January has created more drama than most players experience See A-ROD | 6B

Bobby Farnham spent last summer with his college hockey career behind him, a handful of AHL games under his belt and no job. Now, things are quite a bit different. Farnham now has a full season of pro hockey — 65 games last season with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins — under his belt and a fresh NHL contract. Pittsburgh signed the physical winger to a one-year contract earlier this month. The two-way deal is worth $550,000 at the NHL level. For Farnham, the contract is a culmination of hard work during a rookie season filled with uncertainty. He began the year attending Minnesota’s development camp before going to training camp in the AHL with Hamilton before joining Wheeling in the ECHL. In November, the Penguins called Farnham up to Wilkes-Barre/ Scranton on a tryout and he earned an AHL contract the next month. So far, Farnham’s progression from undrafted rookie to playing on an NHL contract makes for a pretty good story. But it’s one that Farnham says is still being written. “Right now it’s a good story, but it’s a great story if I make the NHL,” he said. “During the summer you notice who Pittsburgh has and doesn’t have, and you see there might be a chance.” If Farnham gets an NHL shot this season, it will be because of his physical, agitating style. Last season with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, Farnham totalled 274 penalty minutes in 65 games, good enough for third in the AHL. Even though he has accomplished his goal of earning an NHL contract, Farnham insists that his agitating style won’t diminish. “I only have one way to play — on the edge,” he said. “When I earned my AHL contract last season, people asked me if I would tone it down. If anything, earning a contract is more motivation to play my style and play it harder.” But that doesn’t mean that Farnham isn’t willing to change a bit. While he kept his edgy style, he also learned how the Penguins expect their players to perform and was more than happy to oblige. “I tried to do exactly what they wanted me to do and hoped it would pay off,” Farnham said. “It did with this contract, and it means a lot to me that it’s with Pittsburgh — the organization that gave me a shot.” With the contract out of the way, Farnham has been spending his summer in Boston, working out and skating several times a week. He also plays in a summer league with other college and pro players who are friends. “I’m not trying to run them through the glass,” Farnham said. See PENGUINS | 3B

From page 1B for me to even believe how far I’ve come. “When I came to Penn State, I was a two-star recruit from Buffalo, New York. And no one thought I was going to do much of anything.” Urschel — thoughtful and introspective even in lighthearted moments — had to stop to compose himself. “I’m glad that I’ve been able to contribute to Penn State and become a good football player in my career.” Though football and math are his two main passions, Urschel actually has some public speaking experience. Aside from teaching classes in the past year at Penn State, Urschel was also the keynote speaker at a high school graduation, speaking to a crowd roughly three times bigger than the one he faced on Thursday. “But,” Urschel said, “this time there are cameras.” It didn’t seem to faze him in the moment, however, as the senior received a standing ovation at the end of the speech. “He was actually memorizing it on the plane (out to Chicago), which is incredible,” Nittany Lions coach Bill O’Brien said. “It looked like a lot of pages, and I said, ‘John, you might want to cut that down.’ “But what a fantastic kid. I think a lot has been made about his academic prowess, but I think we have to be reminded here that he’s a helluva football player. He’s a

first-team All-Big Ten guard, which in this conference, that’s a big deal. And he’s got a chance to play pro football. So he’s just as good a football player as he is a student, he really is.” To put that into perspective, Urschel has a perfect 4.0 GPA in his first four years at Penn State. He earned his master’s in math in the spring and will be working on a second master’s in math education this fall. He began teaching classes himself earlier this year and will be doing so again in the fall, leading a class on Integral Vector Calculus, a 200-level class filled mostly with sophomores and juniors. In the spring, he even had a paper published in the journal Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy. It

was titled “Instabilities of the Sun-Jupiter-Asteroid Three Body Problem.” And yes, his coach feels he’s equally talented on the gridiron. “Sometimes I feel it can be overshadowed by my math talents,” Urschel admitted. “It’s refreshing when I get football questions and I have football conversations. Because I personally believe I’m a good football player in my own right, irrespective of math.” Urschel credits O’Brien, offensive line coach Mac McWhorter and strength coach Craig Fitzgerald for helping him reach a higher level on the field last season. Not bad for a guy who was the seventh and final offensive lineman that Penn State brought aboard in its 2009

recruiting class. Out of 27 players who signed with the Lions, Urschel was the 26th member to join. “I wasn’t blessed with some amazing physical talent,” Urschel said. “I’m not 6-6. I’ve had to work. I’ve worked to become strong. I’ve worked to become athletic. I’ve worked to perfect my technique. I’ve worked to increase my football IQ. I’ve put countless number of man-hours into football, into becoming the player that I am. So I take a lot of pride in that. “I wouldn’t trade my situation for any other athlete’s in the world. I’m very happy with what God has given me, and I think I’m very lucky to be able to do what I do, both academically and athletically.”

From page 1B four innings and took a one-hitter into that seventh inning. But he left after the seventh with a hard-luck no-decision. At least he didn’t absorb a loss because of it. The RailRiders evened the score, 1-1, by stringing together three straight singles in the bottom of the seventh. Grice made up for the run when he started the rally with a single. He moved to second on a passed ball, went to third base on a single by Alberto Gonzalez and scored on a hit to right field by Adonis Garcia. But that’s all the RailRiders managed, despite a 16-hit outburst. The left the bases loaded in the seventh inning and again in the 10th inning, when Scranton/Wilkes-Barre had the bases loaded with nobody out and didn’t score. A bouncer to the pitcher, pop up and strike out ended that golden opportunity. Garcia led the offensive attack with three singles, and five other RailRiders had two hits apiece.

Penguins
From page 1B “But I’m still scrappy.” Whether he starts the season in Pittsburgh or with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, Farnham is excited about playing his agitating style once again and possibly adding penalty killing to his repertoire. More important, he hopes to impress when Pittsburgh’s training camp opens in September. “That’s very important to me because I can go against NHL guys and the organization can see me play with them,” Farnham said. “Last summer I had no idea where I was going to end up, and now I have an NHL contract with the Pittsburgh organization. I’m excited for every opportunity that’s coming up.”

CHICAGO — Bill O’Brien has visions of formations with two of his tailbacks on the field at the same time. For now, he’ll be happy to have two of them ready to go to start training camp. Zach Zwinak (wrist injury) and Bill Belton (grades) have both been limited this summer in voluntary workouts, but the Penn State coach is optimistic both will be ready in August. “Zwinak is number one (on the depth chart),” O’Brien said Thursday as Big Ten media days wrapped up. “And in talking to Zach — he stopped by the office the other day — he’s ahead of schedule. Which is a good sign.” Zwinak injured his wrist in the Blue-White Game and has had to take things slowly this summer. O’Brien said he likely won’t be in full-contact drills right at the start of camp, which opens Aug. 5. Belton’s focus on his summer classes meant he did not participate in events such as the team’s Lift For Life charity drive. “Billy was struggling a little bit academically,” O’Brien said. “So what I did was, in the second summer session (of classes), I basically wanted him to concentrate on academics. So he would get his workouts in early in the morning or later at night, but the primary goal was to do well academically so that he could be eligible. And I believe he’s going to be eligible. “I don’t want to make a mountain out of a molehill there. I think he’s going to be fine. He’s doing very well.”

Penn state head football coach Bill O’Brien speaks at a news conference during the NCAA Big Ten football media day meetings on Wednesday in Chicago.

O’Brien said the rest of the squad was in good shape academically. Starting receiver Brandon Moseby-Felder in particular has improved his standing. “Felder was a guy who needed to have a good summer academically, and he has,” O’Brien said. Changing ticket policies Single-game tickets for Penn State’s home games this season will go on sale at 10 a.m. Tuesday. But fans looking just to see the Lions’ biggest opponents on the home schedule — Michigan and Nebraska — will have to pay more. The prices for those games are the same as for any other game. But fans will be required to buy a ticket to the Eastern Michigan game for each Michigan ticket purchased. For the Nebraska

game, fans will have to buy an equal number of tickets to the Kent State game. “We looked at our peers,” Penn State athletic director Dave Joyner said of the policy change. “They’re doing tier pricing. We didn’t do that yet. Who knows? We may do that some day. The Olympics do a lot of this. “How do we stimulate and continue interest in our football games? How do we stimulate people to want to come to the stadium? It’s a new way of looking at it. A new way of marketing it.” Joyner said the change was prompted in part by declining attendance brought on by the controversial STEP program as well as fallout from the Jerry Sandusky scandal. Penn State averaged 96,730 at seven home games in 2012, the lowest

number since the stadium expanded to its current capacity of 107,282 in 2001. The average attendance has dropped every year since 2007. “There have been concerns coming over the years,” Joyner said. “If you look at what’s going on across the country… We still averaged almost 97,000 last year, which was fifth. If you look at the curve that’s been going on the last seven or eight years at Beaver Stadium, it’s been a steady line down, which it has been across the country. “You want to change that trend. The whole Big Ten wants to do that by offering a lot of incentives, interesting ticketing prices.” The numbers game Off the top of his head, O’Brien said he expects to have 66 scholarship players in camp. Penn State is still permitted to have the normal limit of 85 scholarships this season but must be down to 65 by next August because of NCAA sanctions. The Nittany Lions total scholarship count for the upcoming season looks to be 68, which includes two players — Luke Graham and Anthony Stanko — who left the team but elected to stay at Penn State. Both will count against the team’s scholarship limit for as long as they remain enrolled at the school. Country roads It may not be coming soon, but Penn State is working to add another former Eastern rival to the schedule. CBS Sports reported Thursday that Penn State and West Virginia are negotiating a home-and-home series that likely would be played next decade.

The T.L. exPress
Editor’s note: At press time, the RailRiders and Toledo Mud Hens were tied at 1 in the 14th inning. RailRiders at the plate: Six RailRiders had two-hit nights as the team piled up 16 hits, but the most important was an RBI single by Adonis Garcia that tied the game 1-1 in the seventh inning. Garcia led the parade with three singles, while Ronnier Mustelier, J.R Murphy and Randy Ruiz all had a double among their two hits and Alberto Gonzalez and Corey Patterson singled twice. RailRiders on the mound: David Huff worked seven strong innings, allowing just three hits and one unfortunate run when an RBI triple was lost in the lights in the seventh inning. Until that point, Huff didn’t allow a hit through the first four innings and took a onehitter into the seventh. Chase Whitley followed with two innings of shutout ball, without allowing a hit and recording three strikeouts. Decisive defense: RailRiders first baseman Dan Johnson and Toledo center fielder Ben Guez both had impressive tumbling catches, but Guez didn’t have to leave his feet to earn the defensive play of the game. His throw to home plate on Corey Patterson’s single in the fifth inning cut down Alberto Gonzalez trying to score, and kept the game scoreless at the time. Attendance: 6,613, which ironically represent the last four digits of the home telephone number RailRiders general manager Rob Crain had growing up, according to Crain. Time of Game: Today’s Game: The RailRiders begin a fourgame series in Louisville beginning at 7:05 p.m. today. Today’s Probables: Righthander Joe Ramirez (1-3, 4.45 ERA) takes the mound for the RailRiders against Louisville righty Daniel Corcino (5-11, 6.11 ERA). On Deck: The RailRiders will spend their weekend in Louisville for a series that continues through Monday. On the Radio: All games can be heard on WYCK 1340-AM, 1400AM and 100.7-FM. HOW THEY SCORED TOLEDO SEVENTH: Mike Cervenak drilled a double to left field, then scored when Danny Dorn’s fly ball to right field was lost in the lights for a triple. TOLEDO 1-0.

Dillon wins on dirt to win Nascar’s Truck Series at Eldora

ROSSBURG, OhiO — Austin Dillon grabbed the golden shovel and scooped a pile of dirt. his dirty work over, Dillon dumped the black clump in a small jar, a nice souvenir for a victory four decades in the making. Dillon left the rest of the field in his dust to win NASCAR’s return to dirt racing in the Truck Series races at Eldora Speedway. he pulled away in the green-whitecheckered finish Wednesday night to complete a thrilling return to the muck of the clumpy dirt track. “This is real racing right here,” said Dillon, a regular in the Nationwide Series who won for the fifth time in 53 career Truck starts. The last time one of NASCAR’s top touring series competed on dirt was Sept. 30, 1970, when Richard Petty won a Sprint Cup — called the Grand National Division at that time — race at the North Carolina State Fairgrounds in Raleigh. That drought ended with racing that started early in the day and bled into late night at the Tony Stewart-owned half-mile track. Dillon was joined by his father, Mike, and his grandfather, owner Richard Childress, for the victory celebration. “The coolest thing is, you’re out of control out there for a few laps,” Austin said. “You’re on the edge for every lap.” NASCAR returned to dirt in an attempt to reconnect with its roots and give fans raised on asphalt and stock

cars a taste of the slides and wall-banging that are staples of the surface. Looks like NASCAR will have to come back. Fans absolutely packed the track that opened in 1954, a rare feat for a series that often runs in front of mostly empty grandstands as a support race in a Sprint Cup weekend. About 20,000 fans spread out on the grassy hills or creaky

wooden bleachers; most seats with a hand-painted number. They camped out along the street entering the track and turned Eldora into the site of Ohio’s biggest party. Not bad considering rural Rossburg had a population of 201 in the 2010 census. if fans weren’t chugging beers, they sipped the track’s signature drink, Toilet

Water. Just some vodka, with orange juice and 7-Up. Oh, and a Tootsie Roll plopped in the yellowish concoction for fun. They got quite a show. The trucks drove four wide in a parade lap. Then they skidded and slid around the track, mashed and bashed against the wall and doors, living up to the hype of one of the most anticipated races of the season in any NASCAR series.

Kyle Larson was second, Ryan Newman third, Joey Coulter fourth and Brendan Gaughan fifth. Darrell Wallace Jr. finished seventh. There sure seemed to be more excitement for the Truck Series race than the Cup stop Sunday at indianapolis Motor Speedway. Leave indy, get off the highway, and there’s nothing but farmland, corn, a small town that could be mistaken for Mayberry — and then, Eldora. Keselowski said on TV “there was more energy than for a Cup race.” The track issued 130 media credentials and boasted that tickets were purchased from 48 of the 50 states. Qualifying was pulled out of the dirt racing playbook. There were five, eightlap qualifying events and a 15-lap lastchance race to come up with the 30 competitors (regularly 36 in the series) for the 150-lap Mudsummer Classic. The feature race was broken into three segments of 60, 50 and 40 laps. Norm Benning rode the wall in the last-chance race to become the final driver in the field. But his No. 57 Chevrolet looked as if it went through 150 laps, not 15, with the exhaust pipes dragging along the dirt. The 61-year-old Benning flipped the middle finger to Clay Greenfield after their trucks connected on the final lap. it was a good race for older drivers. Ken Schrader became the oldest pole winner in a NASCAR series. The 58-year-old Schrader won the pole and a qualifying heat race. Dick Trickle was 57 years old when he won the pole for the June 1999 Nationwide Series race at Dover. The trucks were dirty, but the racing was clean, with the first big wreck not coming until the 116th lap.

Falcons, Ryan agree on 5-year extension
GEORGE HENRY
Associated Press Writer

FLOWERY BRANCH, GA. — Now that he’s wearing a $100 million smile, quarterback Matt Ryan is ready to get back to work for the Atlanta Falcons.

“I’ve always not worried about the business side of it,” Ryan said. “I really think as a player, if you’re hung up or worried about that or thinking about all those things, you’re taking away from what you should be doing.” Ryan and the Falcons

agreed to a five-year contract extension on Thursday that was being finalized as he led the offense through practice on the first day of training camp. A person familiar with the situation says Ryan’s extension is for $103.75

million deal, with $59 million guaranteed. The person said Ryan will average $20.75 million during the first three years of the extension. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the terms of the deal

had not been announced. Ryan, 28, is entering the sixth and final season of his original rookie contract and will earn a $10 million salary. The NFL’s No. 3 overall draft pick of 2008, last season Ryan was invited

to the Pro Bowl for the second time. He completed 68.6 percent of his passes, tops in the NFL. “I’d say right now that we’re glad that we didn’t go defensive tackle with the third pick back in 2008,” general manager Thomas

Dimitroff. “I’m excited to have Matt on board for many years to come. Matt provides us with all the requisite traits, on the field as we know, and we feel we does that off the field. He’s a quality person.”

SAN DIEGO — Manti Te’o was deep into his first news conference of training camp when Eric Weddle walked up to the podium, tapped the rookie on the hip and pointed him toward the locker room. “Rookie’s got enough time. It’s time for the older guy. So get in there and watch some film or something. Love ya,” the veteran safety said. “Eric’s up. The kids are waiting for me, so let’s make this quick. Just kidding.” Well, Weddle was mostly kidding, although he did have somewhere to go with his kids “I love you Eric,” Te’o shot back, perhaps relieved that his once-weekly media session was over, although he has handled himself well in front of microphones since the Chargers moved up in the second round of April’s draft to select the Heisman Trophy runnerup. That’s how it is for Te’o now as he begins the adjustment from star linebacker at Notre Dame to NFL rookie with the San Diego Chargers. “I’m just keeping my

head down and working hard and making sure that my head is in the playbook and that they’re not yelling at me too much,” Te’o said. Although Te’o continues to learn the Chargers’ scheme and terminology, he said one thing never changes. “For the most part, it’s football. You tackle the guy with the ball. When you think about it that way, it’s pretty simple,” he said. The Chargers held their first practice Thursday in helmets, shorts and jerseys. They don’t practice in pads until Saturday, which Te’o is looking forward to. Te’o is clearly the Charges’ most intriguing player. His No. 50 jersey reportedly is the hottestselling among rookies and fans want to know if he can successfully play inside linebacker in the NFL. The last time he had pads on, he and the Fighting Irish were embarrassed by Alabama in the BCS national championship game. And there’s still the matter of Te’o getting duped in a fake girlfriend hoax that was revealed in January. At the recent ESPY Awards, actor Jon Hamm made a crack about Te’o’s

fake girlfriend. “I didn’t see it,” Te’o said. “Everybody started texting me: ‘Are you at the ESPYs?’ I wish I was. At this point, it doesn’t bother me at all. “When you start focusing on the outside stuff, that’s when you start to mess up,” he said. “You have to focus on what you’ve got to do. By doing that, that’s when you bring the best out of yourself and that’s when you’ll be a contributor to this team. I think once you start focusing on the outside stuff, that’s when you start letting your team down and that’s something that I don’t want to do.” Te’o did say it was pretty neat having a hot-selling jersey, although it probably means more to his family than to him. “You know how Polynesian families get. You buy them by the dozen. So we contributed to the numbers a lot,” he said. Te’o said the transition to the NFL will probably be harder mentally. He recalls being an upperclassman at Notre Dame and counseling freshmen with words that apply to him now that he’s an NFL rookie.

From page 1B in their entire careers. Seemingly days away from rejoining the Yankees, Rodriguez injured his left quadriceps last weekend and was sent to New York for an MRI on Sunday. Team physician Dr. Christopher Ahmad diagnosed a grade 1 strain, the least severe level. Dr. Michael Gross, the orthopedic director of The Sports Medicine Institute at Hackensack (N.J.) University Medical Center, was retained by Rodriguez and said on radio station WFAN on Wednesday that he examined an MRI and could not detect an injury. Gross also said he never examined Rodriguez personally. Under baseball’s labor contract, a player must notify his team in writing if he intends to seek a second medical opinion. The person who spoke on condition of anonymity said Rodriguez was examined Thursday by Dr. Daniel Murphy, the Yankees’ orthopedic surgeon in Tampa, Fla., who confirmed Ahmad’s diagnosis. The person said Murphy determined Rodriguez had made great improvement in the last few days and could be on an accelerated rehab schedule. Yankees President Randy Levine and general manager Brian Cashman were on the 15-minute conference call along with Tim Lentych, the head athletic trainer at the player development complex in Tampa. Rodriguez also was on the call and was represented by Jordan Siev, co-head of the U.S. commercial litigation

A-Rod

group at Reed Smith, a law firm used by A-Rod pal Jay-Z. The person said the sides went through a day-by-day protocol for Rodriguez’s rehab. Siev did not return a telephone call seeking comment, and Rodriguez did not speak with reporters at the team’s minor league complex in Tampa. Gross, was reprimanded this year by New Jersey’s board of medical examiners over steroid prescriptions, fined $30,000 and ordered to pay $10,000 in costs.bucket of tar dumped on his legacy.” With 647 home runs, fifth on the career list and 115 shy of matching Barry Bonds’ career record, Rodriguez is among the most prodigious sluggers in baseball history. And his record contracts have put him in the spotlight, first a $252 million, 10-year deal with Texas that started in 2001 and later a $275 million, 10-year agreement with the Yankees that began in 2008. But his body has been breaking down and he’s been on the disabled list six times in six years. Right hip surgery in March 2009 was followed by left hip surgery this January, three months after the Yankees repeatedly pinch hit for A-Rod and benched him during the playoffs. Just when it appeared he was ready to rejoin the Yankees this week, the team said he strained his left quadriceps. Rodriguez has acknowledged taking PEDs before baseball started penalizing their use. In 2009, he attrib-

uted his decision to being “young and stupid” and agreed to work for the Taylor Hooton Foundation to combat steroids. If it turns out he was violating drug rules all along, his reputation may be beyond repair. “There’s no question it’s been diminished, and more than many of his contemporaries that also were involved, because in his case the perception now is that the use has been ongoing,” NBC and MLB Network broadcaster Bob Costas said. “Now that could change if he somehow successfully defends himself, but if that doesn’t happen, then the perception would be that it was not confined to a certain period of time, so it would be impossible to parse how much of his performance was unaided and how much was aided. The shame of all of it is that he clearly would have been an all-time great player without ever using performance - enhancing drugs.” Fox broadcaster and former major league catcher Tim Carver said he regards Rodriguez “unfortunately, the way I view Ryan Braun, and that’s not good. And I viewed A-Rod as a really good guy. Tarnished is understated in these times.” While positive tests lead to a set series of punishments — 50 games for a first offense, 100 games for a second and a lifetime ban for a third — MLB is not bound by that for players in the Biogenesis probe because the fixed penalties are only for failed urine and blood tests. “In theory, they could be suspended for five games or 500 games,” union head Michael Weiner said. Braun negotiated the length of his penalty rather than contest it before an arbitrator. If Rodriguez were to file a grievance, a suspension probably would be pushed back until after a decision and would be delayed until next year.

Jeter ready to play this weekend
The Associated Press

ARLINGTON, TEXAS — Yankees captain Derek Jeter believes he’ll be ready to play when eligible to come off the disabled list on Saturday. “I’ll play whenever they tell me. I think I could play today,” Jeter said after running bases before New York’s series finale at Texas on Thursday. “I feel good. I didn’t feel my leg, which is good.” Asked what he still has to do to be ready, Jeter responded, “Play a game.” The shortstop has also been taking batting practice and

fielding grounders this week. Manager Joe Girardi wants to see how Jeter responds to the workouts, but said Jeter could play Saturday at home against Tampa Bay. Next week, the Yankees play five consecutive games at National League parks, eliminating the possibility of designated hitter. “We’ll have to see how it goes,” Girardi said. “In the National League games, I couldn’t DH him, so he’d have to be able to play in the field.” Jeter said that shouldn’t

be an issue. After the home series against the Rays, New York has days off before and after a two-game series at the Los Angeles Dodgers before heading to San Diego. “No problem. We play the weekend, then have a day off. Then two days and we have another day off,” Jeter said. “I can play defensively. Everything’s been good.” Jeter has played only one game this season. He returned from offseason surgery on his left ankle July 11, and hit the first pitch he saw for an infield single. But he strained his right quadriceps

in that game, putting him back on the DL. The 39-year-old Jeter broke his ankle in the opener of the AL championship series last October. A second fracture was discovered while he was rehabbing, delaying his return. He played only four minor league rehabilitation games before rejoining the Yankees. Jeter said he hadn’t felt pain in the area since “a couple of days before the last MRI,” which was July 18. But he added that he “wasn’t running then. I was walking.”

Hudson
From page 1B undergoing Tommy John surgery in June 2012, threw 86 pitches in a rehab start Wednesday night for Gwinnett and appears ready to return. He allowed two hits and four walks over six innings in a 3-1 loss to Durham, and Gonzalez said the Braves received good reports about Beachy’s stuff. The 26-year-old righthander is 12-10 with a 3.07 ERA in 41 major league starts. He is 1-4 with a 3.00 ERA in seven starts covering 30 innings for Gwinnett this season. The timing hardly could have been worse for Hudson, who was pitching his best baseball of the season in the final year of his contract. Atlanta entered Thursday with an eight-game cushion over Philadelphia in the NL East, by far the largest margin in any division. So the 38-year-old Hudson, who has never advanced past the first round of the playoffs, appeared to have an excellent chance at a trip to the World Series with his hometown team. Maybe his last one, too. A three-time All-Star with 205 career wins, Hudson was born in Georgia and

grew up in Alabama rooting for the Braves. He was traded from Oakland to Atlanta in December 2004 and has provided a steady presence throughout his nine-year tenure. “Anytime you lose a player his caliber it’s a tough pill to swallow,” All-Star catcher Brian McCann said. “He’s a top-of-the-rotation pitcher for us and it’s going to be hard to replace him. But at the same time, guys are going to need to step up and fill in.” McCann thinks Atlanta has young starters who can do that in Kris Medlen, rookie Julio Teheran and 25-year-old lefty Mike Minor. Hudson will likely have surgery in the next few days, and recovery time is expected to be about three to four months. After that, he should be able to resume his career with no lingering effects, the Braves said. After the game Wednesday, Gonzalez said there was “a line out the door” of Braves and Mets

players and coaches offering well wishes to Hudson, one of the most popular and respected players in the majors. Young was very upset about the gruesome injury, which drew a loud groan from the crowd when a replay was shown on the large video board. Gonzalez said he still didn’t want to see the replay. “It’s just one of those freak accidents that happens,” he said. “It’s nobody’s fault.”period averaging just two runs a game. The designated hitter/ first baseman broke out of his slump early in the game clubbing a 1-0 pitch from Mud Hens starter Jon Link just over the left field fence and into the bullpen for a three-run home run giving Marshall and the RailRiders a 4-0 lead in the bottom of the first. Four of the first five batters of the game for SWB reached base. The first run scored when Dan Johnson singled in Adonis Garcia.

“It feels good. We’ve been struggling scoring runs maybe the last week and fortunately we did things right the first inning and we battled,” Ruiz said. “I know we all struggle a little bit, but hopefully we can bounce back. Today was a good win. Start today and take it onto the road trip (which starts Friday).” Marshall ran into a toughluck inning in the top of the fifth. There wasn’t a hard hit ball in the frame by Toledo, but the MudHens scratched out a run on three bloop singles. The last one, by Avisail Garcia, the top-ranked prospect according to Baseball America, trimmed the SWB lead to 4-1. But Marshall got former SWB Yankee Kevin Russo to bounce into a doubleplay to end the inning. After that, the 23-year-old faced the minimum number of batters until he came out after the eighth. “It makes you a little frustrated, but you know what it’s a game,” Marshall said about the fifth inning. “It’s the game of baseball. That can happen 10 times in a row and you can’t do anything about it. I was able to get a good groundball and get out of it.”

Kuroda shines against Rangers
The Associated Press

ARLINGTON, Texas — Hiroki Kuroda pitched seven scoreless innings, Mariano Rivera got gifts before posting another save and the New York Yankees beat Texas 2-0 on Thursday to split the fourgame series. After David Robertson worked a 1-2-3 eighth, Rivera pitched the ninth for his 33rd save this season, extending his career record to 641. The Yankees took the lead for good when Brent Lillibridge’s RBI double in the sixth made it 1-0 off Derek Holland (8-6). Kuroda (10-6) scattered six hits, striking out three and walking one. He is 3-0 with a 0.69 ERA in four July starts. The Rangers honored the retiring Rivera in a ceremony before his last regular-season game in Texas, presenting him with a pair of cowboy boots inscribed with the Yankees logo, his name and No. 42. He was also given a cowboy hat and a $5,000 donation was made to the Mariano Rivera Foundation that helps needy children.

White Sox 7, tigers 4

CHICAGO — Jake Peavy pitched into the eighth inning and the Chicago White Sox beat Justin Verlander and Detroit as the Tigers again played minus Miguel Cabrera. Cabrera missed his third straight game because of an injured left hip flexor. The AL MVP left in the middle of Monday’s game. Torii Hunter homered for the third time time in the series. But the Tigers outfielder exited in the eighth and is out with a sore left Achilles. Peavy (8-4), the subject of trade speculation as the July 31 deadline approaches, was replaced by Matt Lindstrom after allowing Brayan Pena homered to start the eighth. Addison Reed allowed the tying run to get to the plate in the ninth but struck out Pena to pick up his 26th save in 30 tries. Verlander (10-8) gave up seven runs and 11 hits in six innings.

WASHINGTON — Bryce Harper delivered the first game-ending homer of his career, a two-run shot in the bottom of the ninth inning Thursday that lifted Washington to a 9-7 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates and ended the Nationals’ losing streak at six. Harper drove a hanging slider over the wall just to the left of straightaway center with two outs off Bryan Morris (4-4), who earlier allowed a single to Kurt Suzuki. Harper raised his right fist overhead as he rounded first base and was mobbed by a bouncing pack of teammates as he reached home plate. It was an eventful afternoon that included three errors by Pittsburgh infielders in the first inning and the ejections of Washington manager Davey Johnson and Pirates manager Clint Hurdle.

ST. LOUIS — Lance Lynn allowed one run over seven innings and the St. Louis Cardinals scored three times in the third in a win over Philadelphia. Matt Carpenter, Jon Jay and Matt Adams drove in runs for the Cardinals. Philadelphia has lost five in a row, tying a season high. St. Louis has the most wins in the majors at 62 and is a season-high 25 games over .500. Lynn (12-5) had dropped four of his previous five decisions and was 3-4 with a 6.32 ERA in his past eight starts..

NewYork-based bank buys local Bank of America assets
An agreement is in place for eight Bank of America branches in Northeastern Pennsylvania, including five in Luzerne County, to be purchased by the parent company of First Liberty Bank and Trust. Under the terms of the agreement, announced this week, Community Bank System Inc. will acquire approximately $369 million in deposits at a deposit premium of 2.39 percent. “We are excited by the opportunity to strengthen Community Bank’s service footprint across our Northeast Pennsylvania market area,” said President and Chief Executive Officer Mark E. Tryniski. “This acquisition meaningfully improves our presence and density in Northeast Pennsylvania and provides us with improved operating leverage. We believe this is a very attractive transaction at an opportune time in the interest rate cycle and will be additive to shareholder value through expected earnings accretion in 2014.” The acquisition involves Bank of America branches in Kingston, Wilkes-Barre, Freeland, Scranton, Lehighton, Lansford and two in Hazleton. The transaction is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2013, subject to regulatory review and approval. Community Bank System Inc., based in Dewitt, N.Y., previously announced that it will rebrand its First Liberty Bank and Trust operations in Northeastern Pennsylvania to Community Bank N.A. This changeover is targeted to be complete by early September. According to a release posted on Community Bank’s website: “There will be no changes to customer accounts prior to the transaction closing. Customers of the acquired branches need not take any action at this time, and will be receiving information regarding the transfer of accounts over the next few months. Community Bank expects to retain all of the current customer service personnel at the acquired branches.”

GM profit beats expectations

Thursday including those in Philadelphia, Warwick, R.I., and the Bronx, N.Y. Alicia Carroll, 24, of Scranton, was among the soon-to-be wed women in the house. “I’ve never heard of a registry event at a furniture store. It’s good. I didn’t expect all of the different vendors to be here, too,” said Carroll, who is set to marry fiance Joe Maros on Oct. 18, 2014. She registered at the store. “I have everything I need for a house; I just need furniture,” Carroll said. That’s a trend Thomas said she has been seeing with couples. “They’re not going for the traditional gifts like appliances or dishes,” said Thomas, who was wearing a bridesmaid’s dress. “Now they’re looking for bigger items or gifts toward their honeymoon.” Times Leader intern Drew Schaub contributed to this story.
