BOSTON The two broth-

ers suspected of bombing the

Boston Marathon appear to have
been motivated by their religious
faith but do not seem connected
to any Muslim terrorist groups,
U.S. ofcials said Monday af-
ter interrogating the severely
wounded younger man. He was
charged with federal crimes that
could bring the death penalty.
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, was
charged in his
hospital room
with using
a weapon of
mass destruc-
tion to kill. He
was accused of
joining with his
older brother,
Tamerlan
now dead in setting off the
pressure-cooker bombs that
killed three people and wounded
more than 200 a week ago.
The brothers, ethnic Chech-
ens from Russia who had been
living in the U.S. for about a de-
cade, practiced Islam.
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev commu-
nicated with his interrogators in
writing, a less-than-ideal format
that precluded the type of de-
tailed back-and-forth crucial to
establishing the facts, said one
of two ofcials who recounted
the questioning. They spoke on
condition of anonymity because
they were not authorized to pub-
licly discuss the investigation.
The two ofcials said the pre-
liminary evidence from an inter-
rogation suggests the Tsarnaev
brothers were driven by religion
but had no ties to Islamic terror-
ist organizations.
At the same time, they cau-
tioned that they were still trying
to verify what they were told by
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and were

Other municipalities face a
lack of Democratic and Repub-
lican contenders in key races,
a review of Luzerne Countys
unofcial candidate list shows.
That includes no candidates
for:
Tax collector in Bear
Creek Township, New Colum-
bus, Penn Lake Park, Pringle,
Dorrance Township and Slo-
cum Township.
A township supervisor
seat in Lake Township.
One or more council seats
in Avoca Ward 1, Bear Creek
Village, Courtdale, Jeddo, Ne-
scopeck, New Columbus and
Swoyersville Ward 1.
Judge of election or in-
spector of election seats or
both in 93 voting districts
throughout the county.
Thirty-six auditor seats in
multiple municipalities.
Persuading people to give
up free time to take on the
responsibilities of public of-
ce is a challenge, particularly
in local races in which theres
little or no compensation, said
Luzerne County Democratic
Party Chairman Bob Boyer.
The only reason for run-
ning on the local level is to
give back to the community,
and were seeing less people
interested in volunteering,
Boyer said.
He pointed to the unexpect-
ed candidate turnout in the
County Council race, in which
fve Democrats and six Repub-
licans are seeking nominations
for ve seats. All but one Re-

vance to the general.

trickle-down effect in many lo-
cal races, Boyer said.

DALLAS TWP. Students
at Misericordia University are
trying to make their mark on
the world by connecting
Crayola Erasable markers long
enough to be entered into the
Guinness Book of World Re-
cords.
The schools Student Gov-
ernment Association will have
an event Saturday during the
universitys Spring Weekend.
They will try to set a world
record for the never-before-
attempted feat of connecting
Crayola Erasable Markers end
to end for about 500 feet.
If successful, Misericordia
will be entered into the Guin-
ness Book of World Records.
The idea was born out of
a student government brain-
storming session, said Aaron
Orchard, 22, a junior from Bel-
videre, N.J., majoring in health-
care management.
I was kind of bored at the
meeting when we were plan-
ning Spring Weekend, Or-
chard said. We were trying to
decide on a theme, and I had
a marker in my hand. Thats
when I had a random thought
and wondered if there was a
world record for connecting
markers.
Orchard said the committee
researched it and discovered
there was not a world record
for marker connecting. So it
contacted Guinness and e-
mailed an application to have
the event. It was approved
three months later.
There are similar world re-
cords, Orchard said. Like for

SCRANTON Former Lu-
zerne County Chief Public De-
fender Al Flora led a lawsuit in
federal court Monday alleging
his termination was retaliation
by county ofcials.
The lawsuit, led on Floras
behalf by the American Civil
Liberties Union, claims county
Manager Rob-
ert Lawton
relieved him
of his duties
due to reforms
Flora was im-
posing in the
Public De-
fenders Ofce
and Floras rev-
elation that 3,000 juvenile cases
the court ordered destroyed con-
tinue to exist.
Flora led a previous law-
suit in Luzerne County Court
on April 10, 2012, claiming the
Public Defenders Ofce was so
underfunded and understaffed
it could not provide adequate
defense to indigent defendants.
The situation had become so
dire, Flora argued, he was forced
to limit the type of cases the of-
ce would accept, which led to
hundreds of defendants not get-
ting representation.
Senior Judge Joseph Augello
in June ordered Flora to resume
representing all defendants who
qualied for representation and
told the county to allow Flora to
ll vacant positions.
Augellos ruling did not settle
any discontent among Flora,
Lawton and County Council.
Flora, who became part-time
chief public defender in May
2010 after 30 years in the ofce,
led a separate federal lawsuit
in April 2012 seeking to prevent
his ring due to the lawsuit
seeking more money for the
Public Defenders Ofce.
Flora withdrew the federal
suit on March 11 under an
agreement that Lawton had not
nominated anyone for the chief
public defenders post.

Bombing suspect may face death
Boston docs say all injured likely to live
BOSTON In a glimmer
of good news after last weeks
tragedy, all of the more than
200 people injured in the Bos-
ton Marathon blasts who made
it to a hospital alive now seem
likely to survive.
That includes several people
who arrived with legs attached
by just a little skin, a 3-year-
old boy with a head wound
and bleeding on the brain and
a little girl riddled with nails.
Even a transit-system police of-
cer whose heart had stopped
and was close to bleeding to
death after a shootout with the
suspects now appears headed
for recovery.
All I feel is joy, said Dr.
George Velmahos, chief of trau-
ma surgery at Massachusetts
General Hospital, referring to
his hospitals 31 blast patients.
Whoever came in alive, stayed
alive.
Three people did die in the
blasts, but at the scene, before
hospitals even had a chance to
try to save them. A Massachu-
setts Institute of Technology
police ofcer who police say
was fatally shot Thursday by
the suspects was pronounced
dead when he arrived at Mas-
sachusetts General.
The only person to reach a
hospital alive and then die was
one of the suspected bombers
26-year-old Tamerlan Tsar-
naev.
But the remarkable, univer-
sal survival one week later of
all others injured in the blasts is
a testimonial to fast care at the
scene, on the way to hospitals,
then in emergency and operat-
ing rooms. Everyone played a
part, from doctors, nurses and

Berwick woman receives Sterling artifact
WILKES-BARRE Mary Ann
Rizzo of Berwick has received an
artifact Friday from the former
Hotel Sterling, Wilkes-Barre. Riz-
zo was presented with a piece of
decorative tile that once adorned
the soon-to-be-demolished build-
ing at the River and West Market
streets.
Rizzo will have the tile cleaned
and framed to present to her
parents to commemorate their
65th wedding anniversary, she
said. They spent their honey-
moon night at the Sterling before
spending a week camping at Har-
veys Lake. Rizzo will present the
tile to them at a family gathering
in June.
The city presented the tile
to Rizzo at a private meeting.
City Administrative Coordina-
tor Drew McLaughlin said once
word gets out that Rizzos re-
quest was granted, the city ex-
pects to be inundated with hun-
dreds of similar requests.
The seven-story Sterling was
built in 1897 and opened in 1898,
but in recent decades it had de-
teriorated. It has been shuttered
for years.
CityVest, a nonprot corpora-
tion that formed to help preserve
the hotel so it could be marketed,
is the owner of record. CityVest
has led legal papers to dissolve.
Mary Ann Rizzo gets decora-
tive tile that shell give to her
parents on their anniversary.
WILKES-BARRE Real
estate developer Kenneth
Temborski testied Monday
he lost more than $1 million
in property when his Conyn-
gham historical landmark
burned in September 2010.
It was a huge source of in-
come, Temborski said in the
fth day of a trial being held
in Luzerne County Court for
Gail Schneider, 44, of Ber-
wick, who is charged in con-
nection with the re that de-
stroyed the structure. It was
a landmark; it was a huge,
historical site.
A jury will decide Schnei-
ders fate this week on six
counts of arson and one count
of criminal mischief. The jury
was selected April 15 and
heard testimony from re
investigators and experts all
last week.
Schneider is expected to
testify in her own defense
when her attorney begins
calling witnesses.
Prosecutors allege Schnei-
der set the re in retaliation
for being evicted from the
building a year before.
Temborski testied
Monday he purchased the
building, consisting of four
commercial units and four
residential units, in 2001 and
completely remodeled it,
with the exception of one of-
ce.
He was at his home, about
200 yards away from the
South Main Street complex,
the night of the re and was
awakened by his dog barking.
I heard a horn blowing
outside and I could smell
smoke, Temborski said, not-
ing he was concerned about
another of his nearby proper-
ties.
Evicted in 2009
Temborski soon learned it
was one of his buildings on
re, and arrived on the scene
as an elderly tenant was being
rescued from the buildings
roof.
He said Schneider had rent-
ed a residential unit from him
in 2008 and 2009, and she
was evicted after an incident
with another resident.
The landlord said he toured
Schneiders apartment after
she left and found holes in
walls, dog feces on walls and
other problems.
Temborski said he told
Schneider she would not be
receiving her security deposit
because of the damage, which
he labeled as inexcusable.
In letters between Schnei-
der and Temborski, Schnei-
der called Temborskis ac-
tions intimidation and
accused him of being petty.
Schneider then led a land-
lord/tenant civil complaint at
the ofce of the local district
judge, who ultimately sided
with Temborski.
She said, This aint over,
at the end of the hearing,
Temborski testied.
Temborski testied that af-
ter the blaze the building had
to be torn down and rebuilt.
He said the insurance money
was enough only to pay bal-
ances on liens and to build a
one-story building.
The newbuilding with only
four tenants brings in approx-
imately $4,000 less a month,
Temborski said. Im losing a
ton more money. I lose mon-
ey every day, he said.
Assistant District Attor-
ney Shannon Crake and
Schneiders attorney, William
Miele, agreed to the insur-
ance money awarded to the
buildings tenants: Tembor-
ski, $1,323,345; Falvello law
rm, $10,000; Dr. Richard
Grovich, $10,000; Navigate
Financial Advisors, $10,000;
M&L Trucking, $2,100; Bar-
bara Reese, $25,000; Nellie
Stratts, $18,900; Nicole Buak,
$18,156.
Jurors also heard the rea-
soning behind Schneiders
eviction from the Lantern
Lane complex Monday when
Buak, now of Drums, testi-
ed.
Buak said that one night
in September 2009 Schnei-
der was yelling and banging
doors, and Buak called police
twice to come to Schneiders
apartment.
Buak said she saw Schnei-
der near her car and then saw
her run away. When Buak
went outside her apartment,
she noticed the word die
carved in her apartment door
and a scratch on her vehicle.
Schneider was charged
with disorderly conduct at
the district judge level, plead-
ed guilty to the charge and
paid restitution.
I was scared for my life,
Buak said.

W-B Area board boots Corcoran, opens seat to applicants
WILKES-BARRE Robert
Corcorans colleagues on the
Wilkes-Barre Area School Board
on Monday voted unanimously
to vacate his seat and advertise
for candidates interested in ll-
ing it.
The move, which was expect-
ed and presented for a vote by
Phil Latinski and seconded by
Lynne Evans, came about after
Corcoran missed two consecu-
tive board meetings without
providing an excuse.
Solicitor Ray Wendolowski
said the board is authorized by
Pennsylvania statute to vacate
another board members seat for
that reason.
Wendolowski said after the
meeting that he had emailed
Corcoran, who accepted a job
in Germany and is living there,
about the boards intent. He said
Corcoran emailed back saying
he understood and he had no
objection.
Corcoran did not participate
via a Skype computer connec-
tion at the March 11 or April 8
meetings as he had at a February
meeting, sparking arguments
when he insisted on voting on
agenda items. Board President
John Quinn had said in March
that Corcoran refused to resign
but would not participate in any
more meetings.
Anyone who wishes to be con-
sidered by the board for lling
the seat must submit a letter
of intent and a resume to the
school board postmarked no
later than May 3 or hand-deliver
the documents to the school dis-
trict administration building by
the end of that business day.
In other business, the board:
Heard from Harry Heck,
who said he heard rumors that
the board intended to close
down a Head Start program
at one of the city schools and
wanted to know why, consider-
ing how benecial the program
is for students.
Superintendent Bernard Pre-
vuznak said the board has been
in discussion with Lynn Biga, di-
rector of Luzerne County Head
Start. What we have, very can-
didly, are budget concerns. But
we do understand the great
work that Head Start does.
We are evaluating what Head
Start offers. We know it offers a
lot to the academics of our dis-
trict. We will try to put every-
thing in perspective, he said.
Heard from Nick Sura, a
student teacher at Meyers High
School, who asked directors to
review his application packet
when they have time and con-
sider him for hire as a special
education teacher next school
year. He said he is a very hard
working individual, loves be-
ing at the school, knows all the
students there and has a strong
rapport with the administration
and staff.
Approved a $3.29 million
budget proposal presented by
The Nutrition Group and ex-
tend the companys contract for
food service management ser-
vices for the 2013-2014 school
year.
Awarded a contract for an-
nual gymnasium oor renish-
ing to low bidder Mastercraft
Hardwood Flooring. An option
for only regular maintenance
would cost $10,540. An option
that included the total ren-
ish and repair and addition of
new court lines at Meyers High
School would cost $22,440.
Approved an agreement
with the American Red Cross
to allow GAR High School, Leo
Solomon Education Complex
and Heights-Murray Elemen-
tary School to be used as tem-
porary shelters for disaster vic-
tims.
Approved 7-1 a request from
the GARSoccer Booster Club to
use the GAR gym for a Dodge
Ball Tournament Fundraiser
from4 to 10 p.m. May 31. Lynne
Evans voted against it because
information was presented at
the previous board meeting that
only GAR students would par-
ticipate but that changed to al-
low at-large participation. Shes
concerned non-district students
might form teams to target cer-
tain students with dodge balls.
Approved 7-1 an adminis-
tration request for 105 hours
of psychological testing in the
summer. Maryanne Toole voted
against it because she didnt
understand why the testing
couldnt be done during the
school year and avoid the addi-
tional costs.
Approved a request to allow
the GAR boys basketball team
to have a pizza party in the caf-
eteria on Wednesday.
Accepted the resignations
of Rosemary Marchese, Diane
Thomas, Claire Krutz, Deborah

What to do with 2 million pounds of out-
dated prescription medicine?
To keep it out of the hands of addicts and
children who might try to experiment with
it, the Pennsylvania Drug Enforcement Ad-
ministration incinerates it.
Twice annually, the agency collects and
burns unused or expired medicine for Na-
tional Prescription Drug Take-Back Day.
During the past three years, agency of-
cials estimate they have destroyed more
than 2 million pounds of medicine, also
destroying the chance it may be consumed
irresponsibly.
Expired medication is dangerous be-
cause, if taken in an emergency, it may not
work as it should. Also, forgetting about it
in a bathroom cabinet means it could be
used abusively, said Nina Taggart, Blue

BUTLER TWP. The U.S. Depart-
ment of Labor has issued a directive
that lifts enrollment freezes nation-
wide for its Job Corps program effec-
tive immediately. This will affect four
centers in Pennsylvania, including one
in Butler Township.
U.S. Sen. Bob Casey, who has been
calling for an inspector generals in-
vestigation into the programs funding
shortfall and held a Senate hearing on
the issue, lauded the announcement.
This is good news for students in
Pennsylvania and around the country
as they seek skills needed to success-
fully enter the workforce. It is disturb-
ing that nancial mismanagement led
to a three-month enrollment freeze
that prevented students from attend-
ing Job Corps and led to job loss at
local Job Corps centers, Casey, D-
Scranton, said.
The program, one of the nations
largest job-training initiatives for low-
income youths and young adults, has
centers in Philadelphia, Lopez, Pitts-
burgh and the Keystone Job Corps
Center in Butler Township, where at-
risk young adults, ages 16-24, receive
worker training so theyre able to com-
pete for jobs.
According to data released by
Caseys ofce, at the Keystone Center
alone 396 students who applied and
were accepted for enrollment have
since been told theres no space due to
the funding cuts. The lack of students
also would have resulted in the loss of
employment for 176 staff members at
the center.
The U.S. Department of Labor an-
nounced in January it was freezing

tation of reforms as well as the upcoming

Green Party supporters call for more transparency in drilling industry
WILKES-BARRE On Public
Square, protesters remembered Earth
Day singing songs about the Susque-
hanna and listing demands for more
responsible resource development.
The Green Party of Pennsylvania,
an organization that says it promotes
transparent government and ecologi-
cal balance, brought together about
45 people opposing hydraulic fractur-
ing, or fracking, to challenge the state
Department of Environmental Protec-
tions commitment to its namesake
environmental protection.
Fracking is a way to extract natural
gas trapped inside the Marcellus Shale
rock formation that runs miles deep
below most of this state.
Im very suspect of this toxic soup
creating a chemically induced earth-
quake, Green Party member Carl
Romanelli said of the rock-breaking
technique that uses water mixed with
additives sent through the rock at high
pressure.
Chemical additives make up only
about 2 percent of fracturing-water
solutions depending on geology; how-
ever, a few million gallons of solution
might be used at a single well during
its lifetime.
Developing technology now allows
much of the owback, about 90 per-
cent of it that rushes back up the drill
hole, to be recycled and used again.
Drillers who recycle need to draw less
fresh water from local sources if they
recycle. Still, much of it is lost deep in
the Marcellus.
Some protesters waved their signs
toward the DEPs regional ofce along
Public Square. The protest was part
of a statewide effort at six regional of-
ces that more than 60 organizations
got involved in Monday.
DEP responds
Kevin Sunday, DEP deputy press
secretary, said allegations that the de-
partment does not work transparently
and scientically when conducting
eld tests are the result of a miscon-
ception.
I think that speaks to some mis-
understanding to how we do our test-
ing, Sunday said.

DEP says county is stalling
The state Department of En-
vironmental Protection says it
plans to resort to forced entry
on Luzerne County property
to address a ooding threat
because the county refused to
grant access.
County Chief Engineer Joe
Gibbons said Monday the states
decision is premature because
the county was negotiating
property access terms.
The county-owned property
near the Sans Souci Parkway
in Hanover Township has three
boreholes drilled in 1968 to
drain water from the South Wil-
kes-Barre Colliery mine work-
ings, according to a certied let-
ter sent to county ofcials.
Two of the boreholes have col-
lapsed, and the third is in poor
condition, the letter said. The
state wants to install ve new
boreholes this summer or fall.
The boreholes are needed to
prevent dangerous impound-
ment of underground mine
water that could cause ooding
in Hanover Township, the letter
said.
The letter says the county has
been unwilling to grant the state
permission to access the site to
date, despite the states reason-
able efforts to obtain permis-
sion.
Gibbons said he was review-
ing the access request with
county solicitors to ensure the
state was accepting all liability.
As part of negotiations, he also
wanted the state to consider
waiving fees on some other fu-
ture DEP permits in exchange
for the countys willingness to

HANOVER TWP. F LOOD THREAT
NEW YORK It was a
tough start to the week for
many air travelers. Flight
delays piled up all along
the East Coast Monday as
thousands of air-trafc con-
trollers were forced to take
an unpaid day off because of
federal budget cuts.
Some ights into New
York, Baltimore and Wash-
ington were delayed by
more than two hours as
the Federal Aviation Ad-
ministration kept planes on
the ground because there
werent enough controllers
to monitor busy air corri-
dors.
One out of every ve
ights at New Yorks La-
Guardia International
scheduled to take off before
noon on Monday was de-
layed 15 minutes or more,
according to ight tracking
service FlightAware. Last
Monday morning, just 2 per-
cent of LaGuardias ights
were delayed. The situation
was similar at Washingtons
Reagan National Airport, in
Newark, N.J. and in Philadel-
phia. Some ights were late
by two hours or more.
The 8 a.m. US Airways
shuttle from Washington
to New York pushed back
from the gate six minutes
early but didnt take off until
9:58 a.m. The plane landed
at 10:48 a.m. more than
two and a half hours late. If
travelers instead took Am-
traks 8 a.m. Acela Express
train from Washington, they
arrived in New York at 10:42
a.m. 4 minutes early.
The furloughs are part of
mandatory budget cuts that
kicked in on March 1 after
Democrats and Republicans
missed a deadline to agree
on a long-term decit reduc-
tion plan.
FAA ofcials have said
they have no choice but to
furlough all 47,000 agency
employees, including nearly
15,000 air-trafc control-
lers. Each employee will
lose one day of work every
other week. The FAA has
said planes will have to take
off and land less frequently,
so as not to overload the re-
maining controllers on duty.
Critics have said the FAA
could reduce its budget in
other spots that wouldnt
delay travelers.
Monday is typically one of
the busiest days at airports
with many business travel-
ers setting out for a week on
the road.

TORONTO
2 nabbed in Canada plot
Two men were arrested and charged
with plotting a terrorist attack against
a Canadian passenger train, police said
Monday.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police
said Monday that Chiheb Esseghaier
and Raed Jaser, who live in Montreal
and Toronto areas, were conspiring to
carry out an al-Qaida supported attack
against Via Rail, but posed no immedi-
ate threat.
Charges against the two men include
conspiring to carry out an attack and
murder people in association with a
terrorist group. Police said the men are
not Canadian citizens, but declined to
say where they were from.
The investigation was part of a cross-
border operation involving Canadian
law enforcement agencies, the FBI
and the U.S. Department of Homeland
Security.

Taliban takes 11 hostages
The Taliban took 11 civilians
prisoner, including eight Turks and a
Russian, after their cargo helicopter
made an emergency landing in eastern
Afghanistan, ofcials said Monday, in
the rst large-scale capture of foreign-
ers there in nearly six years.
Security forces dispatched to the
remote area retreated after engaging
in reghts with the insurgents but
failing to secure the area or retrieve the
captives.
District Governor Hamidullah
Hamid told The Associated Press said
the helicopter came down in a gorge in
the densely forested region, known for
narrow gorges and rugged mountains,
about 12 miles from the Pakistani
border.
Taliban ghters then captured ev-
eryone aboard the helicopter and took
them away, Hamid said.

Smoking age hike wanted
New York City Council Speaker
Christine Quinn is proposing raising
the minimum age for tobacco purchas-

Quinn announced the proposed
legislation on Monday and was joined
by Health Commissioner Dr. Thomas
Farley, other council members and
health advocates.
Texas recently attempted to pass
legislation changing the age from 18 to
21 but it failed. Several states have a 19
age limit for the purchase of cigarettes.
The Bloomberg administration
recently unveiled a plan to keep
cigarettes out of sight in stores until an
adult customer asks for a pack. New
York City has had a ban on smoking
in bars, restaurants and other indoor
public spaces for 10 years.

Fighting kills at least 187
Fighting between soldiers and
Islamic extremists in northeast Nigeria
killed at least 187 people, the worst

since an insurgency there began three
years ago, an aid agency said Monday.
Nigerias military blocked access
for relief ofcials to enter the town of
Baga, which sits along the shores of
Lake Chad in the nations far north-
east, said Nwakpa O. Nwakpa, a Red
Cross spokesman. Another 77 people
are receiving medical care there in the
ruins of a town where some 300 homes
burned down, he said. Local residents
blamed angry soldiers for burning
down neighborhoods where they knew
civilians were hiding.
The ghting in Baga began Friday
and lasted for hours.

No ricin
found in
home of
suspect
OXFORD, Miss. Investiga-
tors havent found any ricin in the
house of a Mississippi man ac-
cused of mailing poisoned letters
to President Barack Obama, a U.S.
senator and a local judge, accord-
ing to testimony Monday from an
FBI agent.
Agent Brandon Grant said a
search of Paul Kevin Curtis vehi-
cle and house in Corinth, Miss., on
Friday did not turn up ricin or in-
gredients for the poison. A search
of Curtis computers has found no
evidence so far that he researched
making ricin.
There was no apparent ri-
cin, castor beans or any material
there that could be used for the
manufacturing, like a blender or
something, Grant testied. He
speculated that Curtis could have
thrown away the processor. Grant
said computer technicians are
now doing a deep dive on the
suspects computers after initially
nding no dirty words indicat-
ing Curtis had searched for infor-
mation on ricin.
Through his lawyer, Curtis has
denied involvement in letters sent
to Obama, Mississippi Republi-
can Sen. Roger Wicker and a Lee
County, Miss., judge. The letters,
bearing a Memphis, Tenn., post-
mark, were detected beginning
April 15.
Curtis lawyer said in court that
someone may have framed Curtis,
suggesting that a former co-work-
er with whom Curtis had an ex-
tended exchange of angry emails
may have set him up.
Still, Grant testied that author-
ities believe they have the right
suspect. Given the right mindset
and the Internet and the acqui-
sition of material, other people
could be involved. However, given
information right now, we believe
we have the right individual, he
said.
Grant said lab analysis shows
the poison is a crude form that
could have been created by grind-
ing castor beans in a food proces-
sor or coffee grinder. That would
be a low-tech way of doing it.
Youre just blending up the beans
to get the ricin thats on the inside
on the outside, Grant testied.
The detention and preliminary
hearing began Friday in U.S. Dis-
trict Court in Oxford, Miss., but
was continued until Monday. Af-
ter several hours of testimony, the
judge adjourned the hearing until
this morning.
Searches aside, authorities
believe they have their man in

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina
She uses a wheelchair and carries
the weight of her 87 years, but Clelia
Luro feels powerful enough to make
the Roman Catholic Church pay at-
tention to her campaign to end priest-
ly celibacy.
This woman, whose romance with
a bishop and eventual marriage be-
came a major scandal in the 1960s,
is such a close friend of Pope Francis
that he called her every Sunday when
he was Argentinas leading cardinal.
Luros convinced he will eventually
lead the global church to end manda-
tory priestly celibacy, a requirement
she says the world no longer under-
stands. She believes this could re-
solve a global shortage of priests and
persuade many Catholics who are no
longer practicing to recommit them-
selves to the church.
I think that in time priestly celi-
bacy will become optional, Luro said
in an interview with The Associated
Press in her home in Buenos Aires, af-
ter sending an open letter to the pope
stating her case. Im sure that Fran-
cis will suggest it.
John Paul II, Benedict XVI and
other popes before them forbade
any open discussion of changing the
celibacy rule, and Francis hasnt men-
tioned the topic since becoming pope
last month.
I dont see how in any way this
would form part of his agenda, said
the Rev. Robert Gahl, an Opus Dei
moral theologian at the Pontical
Holy Cross University in Rome.
But as Cardinal Jorge Mario Ber-
goglio, he referred to the issue of
celibacy in ways that have inspired
advocates to think that the time for a
change has come.
In his book On Heaven and Earth,
published last year, Bergoglio said:
For the moment Im in favor of
maintaining celibacy, with its pros
and cons, because there have been 10
centuries of good experiences rather
than failures. But he also noted that
its a question of discipline, not of
faith. It could change, and said the
Eastern Rite Catholic church, which
makes celibacy optional, has good
priests as well.
Luro and her husband, the former
bishop of Avellaneda, Jeronimo Pod-
esta, felt ostracized from the church
for many years, but she says Bergoglio
didnt hesitate to minister to them
when Podesta was hospitalized before
his death in 2000. They became such
good friends thereafter that Luro said
Bergoglio called her every Sunday for
12 years and often discussed the celi-
bacy issue as they debated all sorts of
hot topics in private conversations.
Luro now feels that the cardinals
election of a Jesuit and Vatican out-
sider who is committed to expanding
the global church and reafrming its
commitment to the poor shows their
willingness to undertake profound
changes to stem an exodus of the
faithful.

Suburbs are now crucial in gun legislation
QUAKERTOWN, Pa.
In the emotional politics
of gun control, the suburbs
seem to be emerging as a
new sphere of inuence.
The Senates defeat last
week of rearms restric-
tions underscored the na-
tions shifting demographics
and a pronounced divide
on the gun issue between
Americans in rural areas
and residents of suburban
enclaves, like Quakertown,
outside Philadelphia.
Packed with married
women and political inde-
pendents, vote-rich commu-
nities like these are starting
in the wake of a string of
shooting massacres to
act more like urban centers
that long have been con-
cerned with the threat of
local gun violence and have
favored stricter laws.
Like most Pennsylvania
voters, Lisa Inglis, 43, a stay-
at-home mom of two from
the Philadelphia suburbs,
is a supporter of expanded
checks of gun buyers, part of
the legislation defeated last
week. She said she was very
disappointed by the Sen-
ate action, though she also
questioned whether such
measures would prevent
many crimes.
The reality hits you that
nobody can keep anybody
safe, said Inglis.
Four Republicans backed
the proposal, including
three Sens. Patrick
Toomey of Pennsylvania,
Mark Kirk of Illinois and
John McCain of Arizona
where suburbs play a strong
role in their home states
politics.
An Associated Press-GfK
poll this month found that
52 percent of people living
in suburban areas supported
stricter gun laws compared
with 41 percent rural resi-
dents.
The poll found that 58
percent of women favored
stricter gun laws, compared
with 41 percent of men.
Most women in recent polls
also favor stronger control
measures.

When a water supplys integ-
rity is challenged, Sunday said,
the DEPs lab technicians apply
a battery of tests similar to hu-
man blood tests, seeking specif-
ic contaminants that may leech
into the ground from industry
negligence. He said all veried
reports, upon completion, are
relayed immediately to those
individuals supposing drilling-
related contamination.
While the rst part of the test
relies on a machine to scan sam-
ples for contaminants, all rele-
vant elements that point toward
contamination found are further
tested and veried.
Concerning injured-party de-
fense, Sunday said the depart-
ment holds companies responsi-
ble if they cause environmental
harmbased on state regulations.
The department has authority
to le civil cases, but it refers
criminal cases to the state At-
torney Generals Ofce.
The protesters demanded
that the state:
Appoint an environmental
expert to DEPs secretary posi-
tion, not a lawyer or anyone in-
vested in the industry.
Call for a moratorium on
natural-gas wells, compressor
stations, pipelines, water with-
drawals, coal mines and other
fossil-fuel extraction functions.
Offer full disclosure to DEP
studies.
Provide justice for those
who are harmed by the fossil-
fuel industry.
Reopen the departments
Ofce of Energy and Technol-
ogy Deployment to develop re-
newable energy sources.
Sunday said the Ofce of En-
ergy and Technology Deploy-
ment still exists but under a
different name. The Ofce of
Pollution Prevention and Ener-
gy Assistance offers incentives
for environmentally savvy deci-
sions, such as a rebate program
for hybrid-car buyers and a near
$7.5 million pool to help home-
owners and businesses buy so-
lar panels.
At the protest, however, speak-
ers said the United States is far
behind the German and Danish
energy solutions that exemplify
how this country should seek
non-fossil-fuel energy sources.
The two countries are working
toward renewable, environmen-
tally benign energy sources and
making great strides, they said.
Denmark meets almost half of
its energy needs with wind pow-
er, and Germany, a generally
cloudy country with only about
13 million citizens, uses more
solar panels than the entire
United States, home to about
300 million citizens.
Diane Drier, a member of the
Gas Drilling Awareness Coali-
tion, said that for United States
to stay abreast of developing
energy sources, it must develop
non-fossil-fuel solutions.
The past belongs to fossil
fuels. The future belongs to re-
newable energy, Drier said.
Jay Sweeney, a committee
chair member of the Green
Party, made the groups opinion
of fracking clear when he ad-
dressed the department.
DEP, were willing to work
with you to achieve these goals.
But were not willing to work
with you to continue fracking.

Corps centers nationwide due
to a projected $61.5 million
budgetary shortfall in 2012.
The freeze was expected to last
until at least June 30.
But those plans changed re-
cently, according to the Depart-
ment of Labor, which issued a
statement Monday afternoon
conrming the reopening of en-
rollment has been ordered.
The suspension of enroll-
ment has been difcult for
students and families, and the
department is committed to en-
suring that this important pro-
gram is administered efciently
by ETA (Employment and
Training Administration) and
in the best interests of students
and families, acting Secretary
of Labor Seth D. Harris said.
Casey and others still want to
know what created the short-
fall, and in past comments on
the matter hinted that misman-
agement might be at play.
I am deeply troubled by
these cuts, particularly since
this is the second year in a row
where the program has suffered
from a major nancial shortfall.
This kind of repeated problem
raises serious questions about
the management by the Depart-
ment, Casey wrote in a letter
to U.S. Inspector General Dan-
iel R. Petrol, calling for an in-
vestigation.
On Monday, after learning
the programs enrollment freeze
has been lifted, Casey said he is
still seeking answers.
There are still many unre-
solved issues to ensure that
nancial management is im-
proved and the highly success-
ful Job Corps program can
serve our communities effec-
tively and efciently, Casey
said.
I will continue to monitor
the implementation of reforms
as well as the upcoming Inspec-
tor General report.

Inthepast, DEPhas charged
the county for permit paper-
work that we never thought
one government agency should
charge another government en-
tity. It doesnt make sense for
the taxpayers, Gibbons said.
He said he also wanted more
information on whether two
additional boreholes will put
more mine-polluted water into
Solomon Creek.
For them to say weve been
unresponsive or are not willing
to take action to protect pub-
lic interest couldnt be further
from the truth, Gibbons said.
Were doing everything in our
power to protect taxpayers.
The state said its contractors
will leave the county land in the
same or better condition when
the project is completed. The
county can avoid forced entry
by executing and delivering an
access consent agreement to
the state, the letter said.
We realize that this may be

versity of Pittsburgh, Temple
University and Lincoln Univer-
sity.
The four state-related uni-
versities get substantial state
funding but are not state-
owned, as are the 14 schools
in the State System of Higher
Education.
A complete rewriting of the
Right-to-Know Law that took
effect in January 2009 requires
the schools to provide some re-
cords, including the salaries of
their highest-paid employees,
but exempts the great portion
of their information from man-
datory disclosure.
Rep. Mark Cohen of Phila-
delphia, the ranking Democrat
on the committee, and one of
the six no votes, said the four
schools were accustomed to
operating with more authority,
and expressed concern about
the cost to establish an open
records ofcer and begin eld-
ing requests.
Other schools, such as the
University of Pennsylvania, get
state funding but are untram-
meled by the public records
bill, Cohen said.

and others. We wanted to put
Misericordia on the map.
The government association
purchased 1,200 Crayola Eras-
able markers for the event.
They will accept donations if
anyone wants to drop more off
at the Dallas Township cam-
pus, but they have to be Cray-
ola Erasable markers, standard
size.
When the event is over, we
will donate the markers to local
elementary and pre-schools,
Catie Becker, 20, a junior his-
tory major from Shickshinny,
said.
Orchard and Becker said the
plan is to connect the mark-
ers from McHale Hall (which
houses all freshmen students)
to Mercy Hall (academic and
administrative building) a
distance they hope exceeds 500
feet.
Orchard said the universitys
communications department
will videotape the event to of-
cially document it, and a sur-
veyor will be there to measure
the exact length of the Crayola
connection.
Other committee members
include: DeAnna Darling, 19,
a sophomore business major
from Ithaca, N.Y.; Chrystelle
Patrice, 21, a senior govern-
ment law and national-security
major fromBrooklyn, N.Y.; Lau-
ra Bennett, 20, a junior speech-
language pathology major from
Dingmans Ferry; Dayna Rich-
ter, 20, a junior health care/
physical therapy major from
Dingmans Ferry, and Katerina
Kindig, 19, a sophomore psy-
chology major from Mechanic-
sburg.
Most student governments
at bigger schools get a lot more
recognition, Kindig said. Get-
ting in the Guinness Book of
World Records is a major ac-
complishment.

THE FULL FDA PUBLISHED WARNING PLEASE VISIT HTTP://WWW.FDA.GOV/DOWNLOADS/FORCONSUMERS/CONSUMERUPDATES/UCM213307
By Maureen Reynolds
I am no medical expert. Far from
it. Just a regular, busy Mom of four
who was miserable for many years
with awful, painful stomach issues.
Sometimes, I would eat and feel like I
was lit on re. I would start choking,
I couldnt swallow properly, Id break
into a cold sweat and then vomit. At
those times, I thought that I would
never be able to enjoy a meal again.
Last year I broke my wrist, Im
not an old person, Im 56 and thought
I was in decent shape. My Mom, who
is in assisted living, also recently
suffered from a broken hip. I am still
paying the medical bills from all of it.
I thought our family was just prone to
these fractures until I read an article
that stopped me dead in my tracks.
It talked about a recent FDA warning.
It also said that these medications
were not meant to be taken for more
than one year for prescription, and for
over-the-counter versions (OTC), no
more than three 14 continuous day
treatments per year unless instructed
by a physician.

I almost fainted when

I read this because my Mom and I both
had been taking them daily for years,
but I nowunderstand about what might
have happened to us and cant tell you
how upset and victimized I now feel.
I went to my Doctor to nd out
more. He explained to me that massive
studies showed these antacids caused
side effects including fractures,
seizures, bacterial infections, and
much more to those taking them, that
users must be warned. We are talking
about drugs that you hear advertised
every day all over TV.
He also explained that they shut down
the production of stomach acid, which
our bodies need to absorb nutrition
and control harmful bacteria. I asked if
there was anything else that I could try
without the negative side effects. He told
me that I might not need a drug at all!
A better alternative is an all natural
solution that promotes healthy
digestion called AloeCure

, which
actually uses pure Aloe Vera to
balance stomach acid and has no
known side effects.
I wonderedhowsomethingnatural
could be strong and powerful, but
I was desperate, so I hoped and
prayed this was the answer.
I also discovered that there are tales
inthe Bible of a healing Aloe Vera plant.
And that gave me comfort, as I believe
that the miraculous powers of natural
substances can be even more powerful
than some of these chemicals.
I also gave some to my Mom who
is thrilled with the results. I wanted
to share my story with other people,
so they can experience the relief that
I have and not have to suffer the way
my Mom and I did. So if you dont
believe me, just try AloeCure

for
yourself. It is truly a miracle.
Powerful, fast-acting, all natural
AloeCure

is available to readers of this

publication. There are a limited number
of free bottles and bonus gifts and our
phone operators are standing by.
Try AloeCure

100% Risk Free.

For a limited time the makers of
AloeCure

you up to 6 free bottles plus 2 free

Thank God I saw the
FDA warning. I never
would have known
certain antacids could be
so bad for me!
My doctor was right.
AloeCure

worked.
I can eat what I want and
sleep through the night.
My digestion is healthy
and my discomfort is
completely gone!

Geisinger offers thanks
to all hospital volunteers
A
t Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medi-
cal Center and its South Wilkes-Barre
campus, we nd peace of mind in knowing
there are 337 kindhearted volunteers ready
and waiting to provide comfort, lend a
hand or share a smile with each and every
person who walks through our doors.
As we celebrate National Healthcare
Volunteer Week, April 21-27, we would
like to publicly recognize and thank these
extraordinary volunteers who, in the past
year, donated more than 35,444 hours of
service to our patients and their families.
Volunteers are essential to the delivery of
high-quality healthcare, enhancing the pa-
tient, family and visitor experience through
a shared commitment to helping those in
need. Youll nd a volunteer in nearly every
hospital department, sharing their tal-
ents, sharing their time and perhaps most
importantly, sharing their compassion for
the people and the communities in which
we live.
Please join me in recognizing the volun-
teers at Geisinger Wyoming Valley and its
South Wilkes-Barre campus. They are a vi-
tal part of our Geisinger family and we are
so very proud of their remarkable efforts.

Credit Sen. Pat Toomey
for backing rearms plan
T
he right to own rearms has been the
subject of great debate in recent weeks.
As Attorney General, I swore an oath to
defend the Constitution. What I did not
swear to do, however, was sit silently in
my ofce while classrooms of children
are senselessly murdered. I never swore
to defend a right that permits danger-
ous criminals or the mentally unstable to
obtain a 100-round magazine that can be
used to open re on dozens of innocent
moviegoers. The Constitution that I swore
to defend is one that protects our families
and allows children to feel safe at school, in
the movies, and in their neighborhoods.
U.S. Sen. Pat Toomey must have read
and swore the same oath to the same
Constitution that I did. He swore an oath
to put his constituents right to live in
safer communities before the rights of
partisan politics and well-funded special
interest groups. Senator Toomey stood up
and proclaimed that 30,000 senseless and
unnecessary gun fatalities each year are
no longer acceptable. Senator Toomey had
the courage to worry more about the lives
of the 90 percent of Americans who want
to feel safer in their communities than
the vocal and unreasonable minority who
threaten to block his reelection efforts.
We cannot keep silently mourning the
deaths of loved ones taken from us by
senseless gun violence. Senator Toomeys
legislation would have helped to ensure
that those who should not own a rearm
could not get a rearm. We need more
leaders like Senator Toomey who worry
more about our communities than their
political future. This battle is not over and
I encourage Senator Toomey to keep ght-
ing. As the great leader Winston Churchill
said: Success is not nal, failure is not
fatal: it is the courage to continue that
counts.
Kathleen G. Kane
Pennsylvania Attorney General
More trees would make
city better place to live
O
ur Wilkes-Barre city parks need ever-
green trees and shade trees.
We need shade trees of the proper spe-
cies because every living thing needs oxy-
gen and trees are the only thing on earth
can make oxygen. Trees also are needed to
clean polluted air, provide shade, shelter
for birds and other wildlife as well as help-
ing to reduce the demand on our power
grids for during a sweltering summer.
Do you know that just one mature
shade/street tree can provide life sustain-
ing oxygen for ve humans. Planted in the
correct place a tree helps to reduce cooling
cost, provide nesting for song birds and
bees and as a big plus; create serenity.
A serene street tree lined neighborhood
is generally a low crime neighborhood.
Neighborhood shade trees add value
to real estate and provide free year round
beauty.
Shade trees encourage outdoor activities
and provide a cool spot for both humans
and animals to escape relentless heat or
damaging UV rays from the sun.
Trees in this respect can reduce skin
cancer and other immune or damage to
ones vision.
A park that is a deserted shade less loca-
tion wont encourage outdoor activities.
Is there anything more comforting and
humorous than watching children playing
and laughing in a shady park or in a shady
yard during the Summer months?
Trees can also reduce ooding because
they absorb run off water at a tremendous
rate. If you have a mushy, empty curb lawn
or a mushy spot in your yard plant a tree.
Ask yourself this; Would you like to re-
side on a shady -- tree lined serene street or
on a choking poor air quality -- hot street?
Take a look at some sections of Wilkes-
Barre city where trees line the streets or in
other Wyoming Valley neighborhoods like
Forty Fort and Kingston.
The Arbor Day Foundation offers free
online information on how to plant the
right tree or you can ask a nursery special-
ist to guide you.
Though Earth Day has passed; Earth
Day is everyday. Plan to plant one tree
during your lifetime for posterity or in
memory of a loved one. The next genera-

Easter Day buffet doesnt
sit well with customers
J
ust having celebrated Easter, Im
troubled about an incident that my wife
and I experienced.
We selected a restaurant offering a buffet
for $29.95 per person. It wasnt great, but
we were out for Easter. You can imagine
my shock when I received our bill for $80.
I asked a waitress how they can charge
$20 for gratuities for a buffet. She brought
her supervisor of whom I asked the same
thing. She in turn sent a manager in a suit
who said the plus gratuity was listed in
the newspaper ad. I looked in an old paper
and it was not listed.
Im on Social Security and feel I was
robbed on a sacred day.

Compensate hospitals
for the care they provide
I
have been a registered nurse for 35 years.
For 35 years, I have taken care of the nurs-
ing needs of my patients and their families.
I have explained to them, in terms they
understand, the care ordered by their doc-
tor. I have sat with them, held hands with
them and cried with them.
I do not understand how our governor
can look away from those most vulner-
able our elderly, our children and the
working poor and not readily grasp the
federal funding that has already been set
aside to extend health care coverage to
700,000 Pennsylvania residents who are
currently not insured or under-insured.
Our hospitals provide care for each per-
son who walks through their doors. They
do not ask do you have insurance or the
money to pay for care? before providing
lifesaving care; they provide the needed
care.
Our hospitals cannot stay viable if the
care they give is uncompensated. If we
want to keep our hospitals open providing
care andif we dont want our friends, family
and neighbors to die because there is not
a hospital providing care near to them, we
need to make sure the hospitals are com-
pensated for the care they provide.
I call on Governor Corbett to accept the
federal funding to extend health care cover-
age to our most vulnerable.

OTHER OPINION: TASK FORCE REPORT
U.S. hurt itself
by using torture
A
NEW rEPOrT by a
nonpartisan legal re-
search group says that,
despite years of debate
and speculation, U.S. agents en-
gaged in torture during interro-
gations of foreign detainees.
The report by a task force of
the Constitution Project, found-
ed in 1996 to monitor govern-
ment surveillance, openness and
checks and balances, said that af-
ter a go-ahead by the George W.
Bush administration, U.S. forces
used interrogation techniques
on detainees that constitute tor-
ture.
American personnel conduct-
ed an even larger number of in-
terrogations that involved cruel,
inhuman or degrading treat-
ment, the 577-page report said,
and many actions violated U.S.
laws and international treaties.
The panel was co-chaired
by two former members of
Congress republican Asa
Hutchinson, a former under-
secretary of the Department of
Homeland Security, and Demo-
crat James r. Jones, a former
ambassador to Mexico and
sought to forge a consensus on
the issue after an exhaustive
review. The groups report said
public evidence showed that
the CIA waterboarded detain-
ees, used sleep deprivation, held
prisoners for long periods with-
out clothing and chained them
purposely in uncomfortable po-
sitions.
As other critics previously
asserted, such harsh treatment
did not, in the end, serve U.S.
aims. The torture damaged the
standing of our nation, reduced
our capacity to convey moral
censure when necessary and
potentially increased the danger
to U.S. military personnel taken
captive, the report said. At the
same time, there was no rm
or persuasive evidence that the
cruelty yielded valuable infor-
mation that could not have been
gotten in other ways. In fact, the
task force said, There is sub-
stantial evidence that much of
the information adduced from
the use of such techniques was
not useful or reliable.
According to The New York
Times, Mr. Hutchinson said
that, as a former member of the
Bush administration, he took
convincing on the torture issue,
but after studying the evidence
he did not deny what U.S. agents
did. This has not been an easy
inquiry for me, because I know
many of the players, he told the
Times. The United States has
a historic and unique character,
and part of that character is that
we do not torture.
The Constitution Project
report does not let President
Barack Obama off the hook
either. It faults his administra-
tion with engaging in too much
secrecy, saying the refusal to di-
vulge the governments record
on torture cannot continue to
be justied on the basis of na-
tional security.
This document is an indict-
ment of the nations moral drift
after the shock of 9/11. The
United States can no longer as-
sume the high road of moral
leadership while engaging in
brutality condemned by the fam-
ily of nations. Its time for the
country to decide which Ameri-
ca it wants to be.

FOrM doing end

to its agenda and
buying into climate alarmism
the Obama administration
is stretching a Nixon-era law
to subject projects such as the
Keystone XL pipeline to global-

its enviro-wacko allies a new
basis for court challenges that
delay or derail projects and in-

The GOP-controlled House

berg News reports.
Applicable to all federal proj-

stretch 1970s National Environ-

aimed at air, water and soil pollu-
tion by forcing consideration
of, for example, not just the Key-
stone XL pipelines direct effects,
but also those of the greenhouse
gases emitted by burning the tar-

The standards alone wont
stop projects, but their chilling
effect as grounds for lawsuits
will accomplish much of this ad-

cant.
These nonsense-based, politi-

and County Council did not ap-
prove any increase in the public
defenders budget but proposed
to add a full-time position as
chief public defender.
Just days after Flora withdrew
the April 2012 lawsuit, Lawton
interviewed Flora and ve other
candidates for the new full-time
chief public-defender position.
At the same time Flora was
interviewed, the lawsuit alleges,
a new tension erupted between
Flora and Lawton regarding
3,000 juvenile cases that had not
been expunged.
The state Supreme Court
in March 2009 ordered the ex-
pungements of criminal records
of all juveniles charged with
certain minor offenses who ap-
peared before former county
Judge Mark Ciavarella from
2003 to 2009. In February 2011,
a federal jury convicted Ciava-
rella of 12 counts related to his
acceptance of $1 million from
Robert Mericle, who built two
juvenile detention centers used
by Luzerne County. Ciavarella
was sentenced to 28 years in
prison.
Ciavarellas one-time co-de-
fendant, former Judge Michael
Conahan, pleaded guilty to rack-
eteering conspiracy and was
sentenced in September 2011 to
17 1/2 years in prison.
Flora said the fact that 3,000
juvenile cases were not erased
was discovered in late February,
and District Attorney Stefanie
Salavantis, President Judge
Thomas Burke and Court Ad-
ministrator Michael Shucosky
were alerted.
The lawsuit alleges Lawton
berated (Flora) for disclosing
the matter outside county ad-
ministration.
Salavantis on Friday sent a
letter about the status of the
juvenile expungements to Se-
nior Berks County Judge Arthur
Grim, whomthe Supreme Court
appointed as a special master to
review thousands of county ju-
venile cases.
Flora claims County Council
has made numerous statements
to the media about its desire to
remove him because of his de-
mands for additional funding
and his decision to le a lawsuit
for more money.
County Council, acting on
Lawtons recommendation, on
April 9 hired Kingston attorney
Stephen Greenwald as chief
public defender. Greenwald is
expected to begin directing the
ofce on Monday .
Lawton relieved Flora of his
duties on April 17 and in an
email Monday alerted County
Council about the lawsuit. He
declined comment.
Marisa Crispell-Barber expects
an abundance of primary-elec-
tion write-in votes for the empty
slots.
Some people interested in
local races prefer to conduct
write-in campaigns instead of
seeking signatures for nominat-
ing petitions and notarizing the
petition document to get on the
ballot, Crispell-Barber said.
Write-in candidates must ob-
tain the most overall votes in a
race to secure a party nomina-
tion in May. That could be one
vote if theres nobody on the
ballot and no write-in competi-
tion.
The tallying of write-in votes
is more cumbersome if multiple
candidates are named, especial-
ly if voters spell names different
ways or use nicknames.
Former county election di-
rector Leonard Piazza had to
use a lottery system in Novem-
ber 2009 to select winners in 45
races with tied write-in votes.
The majority of contenders in
these tied races received one
vote each, and the vote results
took several days to tabulate
because the ofce had to ver-
ify write-in contenders were
registered voters living in the
jurisdictions where they were
chosen.
In the November 2011 elec-
tion, write-in contenders lled
vacant seats in 29 municipal
races, mostly municipal auditor
seats.
Walter Mitchell, Bear Creek
Village mayor since 1993, said
he will canvass his borough
of about 300 residents to nd
someone interested in running
a write-in campaign for one of
the two vacant council seats
on the primary ballot. Another
resident is interested in running
as a write-in for the second slot
but didnt have time to prepare
paperwork to get on the ballot,
he said.
Mitchell, who is seeking re-
election unopposed, said nd-
ing residents to run in small mu-
nicipalities such as Bear Creek
Village is a perennial problem.
The mayor and council mem-
bers are not compensated.
Its not the rst time we
faced this challenge. I am con-
dent we will nd someone to
run, Mitchell said.
Laurel Run Mayor Gloria
Mosley said she believes a
write-in candidate will surface
for the mayor seat. Shes run-
ning for council instead because
she believes council members
have more say in decisions.
Mosley said she was elected
mayor four years ago as a write-
in but decided to get on the bal-
lot for council this time.
Jeddo Borough Councilman
Dan Verbonitz said he plans to
run as a write-in seeking a Re-
publican nomination for one of
three vacant borough council
seats.
No Democrats or Republicans
are on the ballot for these coun-
cil seats.
Verbonitz said his absence
from the ballot is justied. The
tiny borough near Hazleton has
nine registered Republicans,
and 10 signatures from voters
are required on nominating pe-
titions.
He believes another Repub-
lican will run as a write-in but
does not know if any citizens
will agree to seek the third seat.
The borough has ve council
members.
As far as I know, nobody is
interested in the other vacant
council seat. This has happened
before. Our borough only has a
population of 98 as of the last
census, he said.

National security expert to lecture locally
DALLAS TWP. A former
national security adviser with
expertise in combating terror-
ism will spend today participat-
ing in events on the Misericor-
dia University campus.
Her visit will culminate to-
night with the second annual
Dr. Midori Yamanouchi Lec-
ture Series at which she will
present Government, Law and
National Security at 7:30.
Frances Townsend had
planned on discussing general
national security issues and
how the government and laws
factor into them. But in the
wake of the Boston Marathon
bombing, Townsend appeared
on CNN as
a consultant
and has spent
the better
part of the
last week
analyzing and
talking about
the issue.
Before her public lecture to-
night, Townsend will conduct
a master class for students who
are enrolled in the Misericordia
University Government, Law
and National Security Program.
Then shell be a panelist at a
student-attended symposium
on national security issues.
Other panelists include Peter
J. Smith, U.S. attorney for the
Middle District of Pennsylva-
nia; Retired Gen. Keith Martin,
former director of Pennsylva-
nia Homeland Security; John
Belcher, district director for
U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta, and oth-
ers.
Frances Townsend has been
one of the foremost gures in
U.S. national security during
the last decade, and she brings
immense experience and a
highly informed perspective
to this problem, said profes-
sor Brian F. Carso, the director
of the schools Government,
Law and National Security pro-
gram.
Townsend has been a pros-
ecutor and rst assistant com-
mandant for Intelligence with
the U.S. Coast Guard before
she was appointed Homeland
Security adviser on in 2004 for
President George W. Bush.
She chaired the Homeland
Security Council and reported
to the president on Homeland
Security policy and combating
terrorism.

looking at such things as his
telephone and online commu-
nications and his associations
with others.
The criminal complaint con-
taining the charges against
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev shed no
light on the motive.
But it gave a detailed se-
quence of events and cited sur-
veillance-camera images of him
dropping off a knapsack with
one of the bombs and using a
cellphone, perhaps to coordi-
nate or detonate the blasts.
The Massachusetts college
student was listed in serious
but stable condition at Beth Is-
rael Deaconess Medical Center
with a gunshot wound to the
throat and other injuries. His
26-year-old brother died last
week in a erce gunbattle with
police.
Although our investigation
is ongoing, todays charges
bring a successful end to a trag-
ic week for the city of Boston
and for our country, Attorney
General Eric Holder said in a
statement.
The charges carry the death
penalty or up to life in prison.
He has whats coming to
him, a wounded Kaitlynn
Cates said from her hospital
room. She was at the nish line
when the rst blast knocked her
off her feet, and she suffered an
injury to her lower leg.
In outlining the evidence
against him in court papers, the
FBI said Tsarnaev was seen on
surveillance cameras putting a
knapsack down on the ground
near the site of the second blast
and then manipulating a cell-
phone and lifting it to his ear.
Seconds later, the rst ex-
plosion went off about a block
down the street and spread
fear and confusion through the
crowd. But Tsarnaev unlike
nearly everyone around him
looked calmand quickly walked
away, the FBI said.
Just 10 seconds or so later,
the second blast occurred
where he had left the knapsack,
the FBI said.
The FBI did not make it clear
whether authorities believe
he used his cellphone to deto-
nate one or both of the bombs
or whether he was talking to
someone.
The court papers also said
that during the long night of
crime Thursday and Friday that
led to the older brothers death
and the younger ones capture,
one of the Tsarnaev brothers
told a carjacking victim: Did
you hear about the Boston ex-
plosion? I did that.
In addition to the federal
charges, the younger Tsarnaev
brother is also likely to face
state charges in connection
with the shooting death of an
MIT police ofcer.
The Obama administration
said it had no choice but to
prosecute Tsarnaev in the fed-
eral court system. Some politi-
cians had suggested he be tried
as an enemy combatant in front
of a military tribunal, where
defendants are denied some of
the usual U.S. constitutional
protections.
But Tsarnaev is a naturalized
U.S. citizen, and under U.S.
law, American citizens cannot
be tried by military tribunals,
White House spokesman Jay
Carney said. Carney said that
since 9/11, the federal court
system has been used to con-
vict and imprison hundreds of
terrorists.
In its criminal complaint, the
FBI said it searched Tsarnaevs
dorm room at the University of
Massachusetts-Dartmouth on
Sunday and found BBs as well
as a white hat and dark jacket
that look like those worn by one
of one of the suspected bomb-
ers in the surveillance photos
the FBI released a few days af-
ter the attack.
Seven days after the bomb-
ings, meanwhile, Boston was
bustling Monday, with runners
hitting the pavement, children
walking to school and enough
cars clogging the streets to
make the morning commute
feel almost back to normal.
Residents paused in the af-
ternoon to observe a moment
of silence at 2:50 p.m., the time
of the rst blast. Church bells
tolled across the city and state
in tribute to the victims.
Standing on the steps of the
state Capitol, Massachusetts
Gov. Deval Patrick bowed his
head and said after the moment
of silence: God bless the peo-
ple of Massachusetts. Boston
Strong.
On Boylston Street, where
the bombing took place, the
silence was broken when a Bos-
ton police ofcer pumped his
sts in the air and the crowd
erupted in applause. The crowd
then quietly sang God Bless
America.
Also, hundreds of family and
friends packed a church in Med-
ford for the funeral of bomb-
ing victim Krystle Campbell, a
29-year-old restaurant worker.
A memorial service was sched-
uled for Monday night at Bos-
ton University for 23-year-old
Lu Lingzi, a graduate student
from China.
Fifty-one victims remained
hospitalized Monday, three of
them in critical condition.
At the Snowden Internation-
al School on Newbury Street,
a high school set just a block
from the bombing site, jittery
parents dropped off children as
teachers some of whom had
run in the race greeted each
other with hugs.
Carlotta Martin of Boston
said leaving her kids at school
has been the hardest part of get-
ting back to normal.
Were right in the middle of
things, Martin said outside the
school as her children, 17-year-
old twins and a 15-year-old,
walked in, glancing at the po-
lice barricades a few yards from
the schools front door.
Im nervous. Hopefully, this
stuff is over, she continued. I

I know everythings OK.
Tsarnaev was captured Friday
night after an intense all-day
manhunt that brought the Bos-
ton area to a near-standstill. He
was cornered and seized, wound-
ed and bloody, after he was dis-
covered hiding in a tarp-covered
boat in a Watertown backyard.

Mourners leave the funeral for Boston Marathon bomb victim
Krystle Campbell, 29, at St. Joseph Church in Medford, Mass.,
on Monday.
MOOSIC Since 2006, Chris
Bootcheck has primarily been a re-
liever when hes pitched in either
the minors or the major leagues.
Entering this season, since that
time he only started seven games
for eight different teams. With
his performances so far this sea-
son with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre,
some of those teams may think
they missed out on the 34-year-
old.
For the third straight start,
Bootcheck kept hitters in line lead-
ing the RailRiders to a 8-1 victory
on Monday at PNC Field.
Bootcheck threw seven innings,
his longest outing since he pitched
for Durham against Scranton/Wil-
kes-Barre in June of 2011. Over
the seven innings, he allowed ve
hits, one run and two walks while
fanning ve. He entered the game
on an 11-inning scoreless streak in
two previous starts.
The streak ended in the bottom
of the fth with two outs when Jeff
Kobernus drove in Micah Owings
on a single. Bootchecks scoreless
showing ended at 14 2/3 innings
as that was the only run the Chiefs
got in the game. He was cruising
until there were two outs in the
inning when he gave up two hits
and a walk.
Bootchecks rst trouble of the
night was in the second as he al-
lowed consecutive two-out hits
and runners were on second and
third. But he fanned Owings on
four pitches to end the threat as
his ERA rose to 0.50 for the sea-
son.
He really knows how to pitch,
RailRiders manager Dave Miley
said. He pitches his game and
gave up a couple walks, but you
cant beat the outcome.
DALLAS Dallas could have done
without all of the drama, thank you
very much. The Mountaineers were
going to remember this day their
rst game at their new eld regard-
less of the result.
But Berwick and Dallas werent
about to turn in an ordinary game to
christen the diamond. No, the Class
3A foes instead combined for 19 runs
on 26 hits and a host of bizarre plays
as the Mounts survived for a 10-9 win
on Monday.
And to think, the
new place which
sits adjacent to the
high school and the
football stadium
looks to be a pitchers
park.
Not on Monday it wasnt, even with
two of the leagues most successful
starters taking the hill in Dallas Brian
Stepniak and Berwicks Clay DeNoia.
With these two pitchers, I wouldnt
have believed it, Dallas coach Ken
Kashatus said.
Add it to the list. This was a game
that also featured:
A combined 10 errors between
the teams as both worked to adjust to
the new surroundings. On a bright but
very windy afternoon, elders seemed
to have trouble reading the ball off the
bat, especially in the early innings.
A blast by Dallas Bill Gately that
sailed high above the foul pole in left.
After a moment of hesitaton, it was
ruled a foul ball much to the vo-
cal displeasure of Dallas coaches and
players. It would have been a two-run
homer.
A sacrifce fy on a foul-out to frst
base. Yes, thats what happens when
the catcher also runs out to track a
high pop-up and no one covers the
plate with a runner on third.
What proved to be the winning
run scored with runners on the corners
as Greg Petorak touched home before
Berwick could get the nal out of the
inning in a rundown between rst and
second.
Two Berwick runners were
thrown out at the plate, with the sec-
ond one coming in the top of the sev-
enth. Down two runs with one out
PITTSBURGH Maybe
Max Starks and Casey Hampton
arent quite done with the Pitts-
burgh Steelers after all.
General manager Kevin Col-
bert said Monday the team has
not shut the door on anybody,
including the two veterans who
have a combined four Super
Bowl rings between them.
Starks started all 16 games
at left tackle in 2012 while
Hampton did the same at nose
tackle. Both players became free
agents last month and remain
on the market. The Steelers
have already targeted their re-
placements Marcus Gilbert
for Starks and Steve McLendon
for Hampton but for a team
thats already lost a handful of
NORMAN, Okla. Matt Bar-
kley stayed in school. Landry
Jones stuck around.
When the NFL draft kicks off
Thursday night, the question of
whether they made a mistake
will be answered. Some of col-
lege footballs highest-prole
quarterbacks will nd out if an
extra year in school cost them
millions of dollars.
If Barkley, Jones and Arkan-
sas Tyler Wilson drop far, it
goes against the NFLs conven-
tional wisdom that another year
in school is almost always a
good idea.
But theyre considered rare
exceptions to the rule by some.
Staying in school has never
hurt anybody because it makes
them much better players, and
especially the quarterbacks,
said NFL draft consultant Gil
Brandt, a former general man-
ager of the Dallas Cowboys.

Cougars get
no-hitter
from Demko
By JOHN ERZAR
jerzar@timesleader.com
DALLAS A return to the Back
Mountain went much better for Becky
Demko than the rst trip.
The Hazleton Area senior pitcher
threw a no-hitter, striking out 11, as
the Cougars remained
unbeaten with a 1-0
victory over Dallas in
Wyoming Valley Con-
ference softball Mon-
day.
Thats the real
Becky right there,
Hazleton Area coach Vince Trivelpiece
said. What you saw the other night not
too many people have ever seen in their
life.
Last Wednesday, Demko was hit hard
at Lake-Lehman. She lasted just 2 2/3
innings and gave up two towering home
runs, although Hazleton Area (8-0) won
15-8. She pitched Monday more like the
player who entered the week second in

NEW YORK Chicago
evened its playoff series the
only way it knows how: with
bruising Bulls defense.
Carlos Boozer had 13 points
and 12 rebounds, Joakim Noah
gutted his way through a foot
injury to make three fourth-
quarter baskets, and the Bulls
beat the Brooklyn Nets 90-82
on Monday night to even their
rst-round series at one game
apiece.
Luol Deng bounced back
from a poor opener with 15
points and 10 rebounds for the
Bulls, who became the rst
team to win a road game this
postseason.
Chicago held the Nets to two
baskets in the third quarter to
build a big enough lead to hold
off a charge in the fourth.
Noah nished with 11 points
and 10 rebounds for the Bulls,
who host Game 3 on Thursday.
Brook Lopez scored 21
points for the Nets, who shot
35 percent from the eld and
were just 4 of 21 from 3-point
range. Star point guard Deron
Williams was 1 of 9, nishing
with eight points.
After an unrecognizable de-
fensive effort in a 106-89 loss
in Game 1, when they allowed
the Nets to shoot 16 of 20 in
the second quarter, the Bulls
got back to the mentality that
has helped them overcome a
number of injuries, including
the season-long absence of Der-
rick Rose.
Noah, who has battled plan-
tar fasciitis and whose status
was in question coming into
the series, played 26 minutes,
just passing the 20-to-25 that
coach Tom Thibodeau said he
would be limited to.
Joe Johnson scored 17
points but shot 6 of 18 for the
Nets, who couldnt even reach
the 87.5 points they averaged
against the Bulls in the regular
season, let alone the 106 they
rang up in the opener.
Two nights after the rst
major postseason game in
Brooklyn since the 1956 World
Series, the crowd wasnt as en-
ergetic and neither were the
Nets, who didnt give the fans
much to cheer about with poor
starts in both halves.
The Nets didnt make their
rst eld goal of the third quar-
ter until Williams rst basket
of the game with 6:35 remain-
ing in the period. Lopez dunked
less than a minute later, but
that was about it for the Nets
offense.
Boozer converted a three-
point play to start a 9-2 run to
end the period, and Chicago
was ahead 69-57.
Brooklyn was 2 of 19 (10.5
percent) in the quarter, missing
all three 3-point attempts. No-
ahs low-scoring backup, Nazr
Mohammed, had as many bas-
kets in the period as the Nets.
Chicago pushed it to 14
points early in the fourth be-
fore Brooklyn cut it to ve.
Noah had two baskets around
a 3-pointer from Nate Robinson
as the Bulls seemed in control
again with an 80-68 lead, but
Johnson hit two 3-pointers in
an 8-0 surge that trimmed it to
80-76 with 4:12 to play.
But Johnson missed an open
3-pointer that could have cut it
to one, and back-to-back bas-
kets by Deng and Noah extend-
ed the lead to 86-78.
OTTAWA Tomas Vokoun
made 34 saves and Dustin Jef-
frey had a goal and an assist to
lead the Pittsburgh Penguins to
their seventh straight victory,
3-1 over the Ottawa Senators
on Monday night.
Jarome Iginla and Tyler Ken-
nedy also scored, and Brenden
Morrow had two assists for the
Penguins, who have already
clinched rst place in the East-
ern Conference. Matt Cooke
added an assist in his rst game
against Ottawa since his skate
blade sliced the Achilles tendon
of Senators defenseman Erik
Karlsson on Feb 13.
Patrick Wiercioch scored
and Craig Anderson stopped
21 shots for the Senators, who
didnt get any help when Win-
nipeg beat Buffalo 2-1. The Jets
now trail the Senators and New
York Rangers by just a single
point for the nal playoff spot
in the conference. Both the sev-
enth-place Rangers and eighth-
place Senators have a game in
hand on Winnipeg.
The Penguins were without
Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin
and Kris Letang because of in-
juries and illness, while goalie
Marc-Andre Fleury was in Pitts-
burgh with his wife expecting
their rst child.
Jets 2, Sabres 1
BUFFALO, N.Y. Antti Mi-
ettinen scored with 7:36 left to
keep surging Winnipeg in the
playoff race with a win over
Buffalo.
Ondrej Pavelec stopped 24
shots, including a huge glove
save on Thomas Vanek with
5:45 left to preserve the victory.
Winnipeg improved 6-0-1 in its
past seven and moved within
a point of the idle New York
Rangers, who hold the Easts
eighth and nal playoff spot.
The Jets also crept within a
point of Southeast Division-
leading Washington, setting up
a critical showdown on Tues-
day, when Winnipeg travels to
play the Capitals.
Aaron Gagnon also scored for
Winnipeg, while Vanek scored
the lone goal for Buffalo.
Red Wings 4, Coyotes 0
DETROIT Johan Franzen
scored twice and Jimmy How-
ard had 34 saves to help Detroit
beat Phoenix for two desper-
ately needed points in the Red
Wings push to make the play-
offs.
The Wings moved within a
point of eighth-place Colum-
bus in the Western Conference
and are hoping to nish the
last three games of the regular
season strong enough to ex-
tend the franchises postseason
streak to 22 years.
Damien Brunner scored late
in the rst period and Valtteri
Filppula had a power-play goal
late in the second for Detroit,
which had won only one of its
previous six games.
The Coyotes are ve points
behind the Blue Jackets and on
the brink of elimination.
With the how and when of
college football playoffs deter-
mined, its time to lock in the
where.
The conference commission-
ers in charge of putting togeth-
er the four-team playoff system
that will start after the 2014
regular season will meet start-
ing Tuesday in Pasadena, Calif.
At the top of their agenda:
Pick three more bowls to be
used in the seminal rotation
and decide on a site for the rst
national championship game.
The Rose, Sugar and Orange
bowls are already part of the
six-bowl seminal rotation.
It will be another big step,
BCS executive director Bill
Hancock said recently.
True, though all signs point
toward these big steps being
foregone conclusions. The Fi-
esta, Cotton and Chick-l-A
bowls are the overwhelming
favorites to be chosen for the
playoff rotation, and have been
for a while. So much so that
only one other bowl the
Holiday Bowl in San Diego
even put in a bid to be part of
the system that will replace the
Bowl Championship Series.
I was a little surprised we
didnt get more, Big 12 Com-
missioner Bob Bowlsby said.
Hancock said there was
plenty of interest even though
it didnt result in bids.
I talked to 10 or 12 bowls
about it, he said. I think for
various reasons people de-
cided, many of the bowls de-
cided, theyd rather go in a dif-
ferent direction. Some wanted
to stick with their conference
contracts, others couldnt meet
specs for 55,000 seat stadiums.
Were not disappointed with
the numbers. We have good op-
tions and there are terric sta-
diums.
Bowlsby conceded the ap-
pearance of three bowls having
the inside track to the playoff
rotation might have deterred
others from bidding.
Even Holiday Bowl organiz-
ers acknowledge they are a big
underdog.
We knowits a tough compe-
tition, Holiday Bowl executive
director Bruce Binkowski said.
But we felt it was incumbent
upon us to make a bid.

starters to free agency or con-
tract terminations, having some
familiar faces might help.
Colbert insisted there is no
rush and any movement would
most likely happen after this
weekends NFL draft.
Age would be a signicant
concern for Hampton, who
will turn 36 the week before
the 2013 season opener against
Tennessee. The ve-time Pro
Bowler split playing time with
McLendon last season but
could be more effective in a re-
duced role. Starks proved to be
the mainstay on an offensive
line that couldnt stay healthy in
2012 but the 31-year-old could
choose to go another route and
compete for a starting job else-
where.
Yet the Steelers, perhaps more
than any other team in the NFL,
make it a point to take care of
their own. The team re-signed
running backs Isaac Redman
and Jonathan Dwyer, linebacker
Larry Foote, offensive lineman
Ramon Foster and wide receiv-
er Plaxico Burress.
The latest standout quarter-
back at Southern California,
Barkley was considered in the
same class as AndrewLuck and
Robert Grifn III, the top two
picks in last years draft who
went on to sensational rookie
seasons and playoff appearanc-
es. He returned to USC with
national championship expec-
tations and the preseason No.
1 ranking, but the Trojans went
bust with a 7-6 record. And Bar-
kley got hurt.
Jones, who ashed tre-
mendous potential soon af-
ter replacing No. 1 pick Sam
Bradford at Oklahoma, never
solidied himself as a top-of-
the-draft quarterback. Wilson
struggled through a disap-
pointing nal year with the
Razorbacks as coach Bobby
Petrinos messy exit preceded a
4-8 season.
Even in these cases, Brandt
isnt convinced damage was
done by the trio of seniors.
They stayed. Did it make
them better players? I think it
did, Brandt argued. Did it get
them drafted higher? I think
they probably got drafted about
the same as they would have
had they not stayed in school.
Well see later this week.
None of them has fallen off
the draft board entirely, but
instead its Geno Smith from
West Virginia and E.J. Manuel
from Florida State who will be
attending opening night at Ra-
dio City Music Hall. Syracuses
Ryan Nassib has also surged to-
ward the top of some analysts
rankings of top QBs.
Brandt said he never con-
sidered Jones anything higher
than a second- or third-round
pick after the 2011 season, and
he doesnt think Wilson was
seen as a franchise quarterback
at the time, either. To him, the
big anomaly is Barkley.
With Matt Barkley, I guess
we were all wrong because
we all myself included
thought that he was going to
be the rst pick in the draft and
the teamwas going to win a na-
tional championship, Brandt
said.
Barkley ended up spraining
his right shoulder when he
was leveled in a late-season
game against UCLA. He has
said, including at the NFL com-
bine, that he doesnt have re-
grets and thinks the chance to
be a leader through adversity
beneted him even if his
interceptions doubled and his
completion percentage dipped.
If Barkley does drop, it will
be an aberration in the eyes of
Brandt, who said he regularly
encourages players to stay in
college. NFL Network draft
analyst Mike Mayock is still a
believer that most players are
better off returning to college.
If you get a rst-round grade
from the NFL Advisory Com-
mittee, you probably should
go. If you cant help yourself
in any way, shape or form, you
should probably go. If youre a
running back, you might go,
Mayock said. But for the most
part, you ought to listen and
see if you can improve your
draft stock by staying another
year.
In this years draft class,
count Alabama linemen D.J.
Fluker and Chance Warmack
among players whove dramati-
cally improved their status by
taking more time to improve.
Im not a big believer of
what a lot of agents are tell-
ing players underclassmen
now, which is, Hey, all
that matters is the second con-
tract. Lets just get out there,
Mayock said.
The aw in that thinking is
assuming that youre going to
get to a second contract. If
youre out of the league in two
years, that doesnt do you any
good, that second contract con-
versation, he added.
As for Barkley, Mayock fore-
sees him getting picked late in
the rst round, possibly with a
team trading up from the sec-
ond round to get him. Even last
year, he says, he didnt think
Barkley would have gone in the
top 10.

The starter was helped by
the RailRiders offense, which
banged out nine hits.
After former SWB Yankee
Ross Ohlendorf got through the
Riders offense once and two in-
nings without any damage, they
werent going to let it happen
again. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
scored four in the third, send-
ing eight batters to the plate.
Thomas Neal who extended
his team-leading RBI total to
14 in the game came through
with a run-scoring double for
the games rst run a 1-0 lead.
The next batter, Zoilo Almonte,
clubbed a two-run double for a
3-0 lead. Austin Romine added
an RBI-single with one out for a
4-0 lead.
Bootcheck, who was an all-
star closer last year for Toledo,
said hes back in the swing of
starting.
The workload is a lot differ-
ent. But I think the gratication
after a good outing is a lot bet-
ter maybe for me as a starter the
way I feel because a lot of time
you can kind of sneak in as a re-
liever and get three outs and not
really feel good about yourself.
Once the Chiefs trimmed the
lead in the top of the fth, Rail-
Riders rst baseman Dan John-
son got the run right back on an
RBI-single for a 5-1 lead.
The game was put out of
reach in the bottom of the
sixth as Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
scored three more runs. Neal
again came through with an
RBI-double after Gil Velazquez
drove in a run with single.
Neal, who is batting .351 this
season, came around to score
the nal run of the game when
he helped Velazquez score on
the play after being hung in be-
tween second and third. Chiefs
third baseman Carlos Rivero
threw the ball into right eld, al-
lowing the runner to score.
Neal has hit in the bottom of
the order on most nights, but
moved up to second Monday
and continued to produce. He
said he likes hitting second.
Its fun because Ive always
felt Im the type of player that
hits a lot of line drives, said
Neal, who is hitting .409 with
runners in scoring position this
season. Im one of those guys
that gets on base and keeps the
line moving. To me, its a spot I
enjoy because I can get on base
and let the next guy drive me
in and let it be a whole team ef-
fort.
The University of Virginia baseball team
was ranked seventh in the nation last week
but the Cavaliers gure to move up when
the new rankings are posted this week af-
ter sweeping No. 5 Florida State in three
games last weekend.
And, a big gun with the team is sopho-
more Mike Papi.
Papi (Tunkhannock) is leading the team
in hitting with a .376 average. Hes played
in 34 games with 26 starts and has 35 hits
in 93 at-bats with nine doubles, a triple, ve
home runs, 30 runs and 32 RBI. He serves
as an outelder and designated hitter and
has made just one error in 39 chances when
hes out in the eld.
Mikes got talent a lot like those guys
that are playing every day, coach Brian
OConnor said. Ive got to nd a way to
get him in there some more because I think
hes a very talented player that has waited
for his opportunity and certainly has made
the most of it.
The Cavaliers are 35-6 overall and 16-5
in the Atlantic Coast Conference after the
sweep of the Seminoles. Papi started all
three games and had an RBI single and two
runs in Sundays 5-2 victory.
Mike has been swinging the bat as
well as anybody on the team the last few
weeks, OConnor said. I think he showed
what hes made of and how hes developed
as a player.
Papi played in 35 games and hit .283 as
a freshman.
BOWMAN LEADS THE WAY The
Mary Washington womens tennis team is
shooting for its 10th straight Capital Athlet-
ic Conference Tournament title and senior
Cassie Bowman (Crestwood) is one of the
key performers for the 16-4 Eagles, who are
ranked 27th in Division III.
Bowman takes a 9-6 record in singles and
a 14-5 mark in doubles into the tourney
seminals against York today in Fredericks-
burg, Va.
Shes been playing Nos. 1, 2 and 3 singles
and Nos. 1, 2 and 3 doubles this season but
gures to compete at No. 3 in both in the
tournament.
Through hard work and sacrice, Cassie
has developed into an exceptional colle-
giate player and a team leader, coach Pat-
rick Catullo said.
The Eagles are young and Bowman was
the only senior honored at Senior Day last
week.
This team went through an important
transformation during Cassies four years
and she has been an integral part of that
transformation, Catullo said. She is going
to be missed and certainly made this a bet-
ter program.
ROGERS FINISHES 11TH Washing-
ton senior Lauren Rogers nished 11th
in all-around at last weekends NCAA Divi-
sion I Gymnastics Championships in Los
Angeles. Rogers (Holy Redeemer) totaled
39.125, the best score by a Washington
gymnast since 1988. She was the only Hus-
kie to earn an NCAA bid.
It was a really great experience, Roger
said. Im glad thats how I got to end my
career. I had a mistake on beam but other-
wise I was pretty solid so Imhappy. Its sur-
real that it is over but Im excited that I got
to nish my senior year strong.
Rogers nished 14th on vault (9.850)
and 16th on oor (9.850). She also posted
a 9.800 on bars and a 9.625 on beam. She
earned her berth in the nationals by nish-
ing tied for second in the all-around at the
Regionals in Norman, Okla.
Lauren handled herself with such class
and poise, coach Joanne Bowers said. She
did what she does best she competed. We
are all very proud of her.
GRULA WRAPS IT UP Senior Ra-
chel Grula (Hazleton Area) helped the
Kutztown womens tennis team post a 10-8
record with a 6-0 mark in the PSAC this
spring.
The Golden Bears were beaten 5-0 by
Indiana in the league seminals but came
back to defeat Millersville 5-3 in the con-
solation match. Grula posted an 8-5 mark
at No. 3 singles and an 8-9 record in No. 2
doubles.
Rachel denitely saved her best ten-
nis for her last year, coach Suresh Rama-
murthi said. She made monumental im-
provements since joining us as a walk-on.
The coach gave Grula a list of goals
which the athlete took with a determined
and positive attitude.
Rachel worked extremely hard at im-
proving her strength and conditioning,
Ramamurthi said. Her understanding of
the game, strategies and tactics gave her a
great condence in winning matches.
Grula was also an outstanding team lead-
er according to the coach. She was a great
role model, he said. She has her own
unique way of inspiring and motivating her
peers. Even the mens team took notice and
felt her positive energy.
SZPYNDA READY TO GO Widener
junior Erica Szpynda (Berwick) prepped
for two big upcoming track meets by win-
ning the shot put and nishing third in
the discus at the Widener Invitational last
weekend in Chester.
Her winning shot effort (53-5) was sec-
ond best in Widener history and qualied
her for the ECAC Championship (May 15-
16 in Springeld, Mass.). She hit 123-9 in
the discus.
Erica continues her strong year with
some impressive performances, coach
Kevin Cunningham said. Every single
meet she continues to improve thanks to
all the hard training she has been going
through each week.
Prior to the ECAC meet, Szpynda will
compete in the Middle Atlantic Conference
Championships May 2-4 in Annville.
I have high expectations for Erica in
the MAC and ECAC championships, Cun-
ninghamsaid. She enjoys the big stage and
based on her early season performances, I
know she is ready for the championship
season. I feel condent that she will qualify
for the nationals.
The NCAA Division III Championship
will be held May 23-25 in LaCrosse, Wis.
TRIO HELPS DUKES Three area ath-
letes are members of the Duquesne wom-
ens rowing team junior Regina Dutz
and freshman Megan Malone, both from
Hazleton Area, and senior Mary Ketchner
of Dallas.
Dutz competes with the second Varsity 8
boat. Ketchner is coxswain on the second
Varsity 4 boat while Malone competes on
the Novice 4 and 8 boats.
All three have been instrumental in the
progress of our team this year and our suc-
cess, womens coach Jennifer Langzettel
said.
Dutz is in her second season with the sec-
ond Varsity 8 boat.
Regina is a very strong rower who offers
physical and mental strength to whatever
boat she is in, Langzettel said. Her boat
has shown a lot of progress this season.
Ketchners boat is having a big year.
We had a very big race in Indianapolis
and Marys boat nished second behind
Ohio State, which is ranked sixth in the na-
tion, Langzettel said.
Malone was a walk-on but worked hard to
get on the Novice boat.
She sits in bow seat and her boats con-
tinues to get stronger and faster, Lang-
zettel said. Last weekend at the Knecht
Cup she raced with both the Novice 8 and
Novice 4 and the latter nished second in
the petite nal.
The Dukes wrap up their season with
the Atlantic-10 Championship on Saturday,
May 4 in Cherry Hill, N.J. and the Dad Vail

BOOTCHECK
Athlete of the Week
Chelsea Skrepenak
AIMEE DILGER/THE TIMES LEADER
Holy Redeemers Chelsea Skrepenak had seven RBI in a game last week.
On CAmpuS
BILL ARSENAULT
School: Holy Redeemer
Grade: Sophomore
Sport: Softball
Position: Catcher
All in the Family: Chelsea, 16, is the daugh-
ter of Matt Skrepenak of Dallas. Her dad,
who she calls her role model, is the head
baseball coach at Meyers High School and
her uncle Greg was a starting NFL offensive
lineman.
Stats: Skrepenak batted .667 in two
games, drove home nine runs and scored
four more from the leadoff position as the
Royals remained unbeaten with victories
over Hanover Area and Meyers. Her week
included two triples, a double and her third
homer in four games. For the year, Skre-
penak is batting .714 with a .750 on-base
percentage and a 1.857 slugging percent-
age.
Catch this: Skrepenak accomplished a
sports rarity by hitting for the cycle during
her seven RBI-game Wednesday against
Wyoming Seminary. Needing a home run
to complete the feat, she rst ew out in
her fourth at-bat that day before blasting a
round tripper in her nal time at the plate.
She also scored three times, accounting
for 10 of Holy Redeemers 17 runs. That
performance came a day after Skrepenak
had two hits and drove home two runs in
victory over Hanover Area.
Coachs corner: Whats not to say? Shes
a dynamic player, gushed Holy Redeemer
coach Mark Senchak. I see her as a future
leader of this team. She can change the
momentum, the attitude, just the overall
feeling of the game with something she
says or pure hustle on the eld. She started
the Hanover game with a leadoff triple, the
ball was thrown to third, the girl mishan-
dled the ball and Chelsea just popped up
and run home. Probably not a risk I would
have taken that early, but shes smart. She
knows when she could make it. Ive said this
before, Im glad she plays for me.
Did you know? In her spare time, Skre-
penak blows off some steam by writing
poetry -- Words to myself, just about life,
she says -- and sometimes re-reads those
works to motivate herself before games.
From her angle: Its denitely something
you want to achieve in your career, Skre-
penak said about going for the cycle. It
was an unforgettable moment. My nal at-
bat, I knew I needed a home run. I tried not
to swing out of my shoes. Ive been training
with my dad a lot, thats who gave me the
ability to succeed and achieve what I did.
Every game, I focused and just did what Ive
learned from my dad.
Week in review: Skrepenak isnt the only
girl bringing a hot bat to the softball eld.
For the second time on the young season,
Northwests Olivia McCorkel unloaded two
home runs in the same game during a vic-
tory over GAR. Hanover Areas Caitlyn
Bogart beat Northwest, 3-2, with a two-run
walk-off homer Friday. And Morgan
Malones two-run triple in the top of the
seventh inning lifted Wyoming Seminary to
a 4-3 victory over Meyers. Crestwoods
Alyssa Davies struck out 14 batters dur-
ing a three-hit shutout of Pittston Area,
MMI Preps Kristen Purcell struck out
10 against Meyers and Coughlins Julie
Suchocki shut out Dallas, 1-0 on Friday.
Pitching was pretty good on the baseball
eld, also, where Coughlins Josh Feather-
man tossed a complete-game four-hit shut-
out against Wyoming Area on Sunday at
PNC Field. Earlier in the week, Berwicks
Alex Klinger pitched a six-inning one-hitter
in his rst varsity start. Wyoming Valley
Wests Jeremy Sabecky had a big week,
with four hits including a triple, four RBI
and two runs in two Spartans victories.
Dan Sales made sure Coughlin picked up
two victories on the boys volleyball court,
where he put up a combined 54 assists
and 38 service points in matches against
Crestwood and Hazleton Area. Crest-
woods Nick Bonos blasted 21 kills and 16
digs in defeat to Coughlin, then came up
with 13 kills and 11 assists against Dallas..
Nanticokes John Pietrzyk made 19 kills
and 14 blocks while leading the Trojans past
Hazleton Area. The new leader in Cough-
lins pole vault records is Kylee McGrane,
who cleared 9 feet against Dallas. Madi-
son Mimaugh broke Pittston Areas 1,600
record with a time of 5:10, while teammate
Catherine Lombardo buried the schools
800 record with a 2:22. Northwest girls
Amanda Jimcosky and Hannah Reth-
erford both won three individual events,
and Holy Redeemers Fallyn Boich won
all three of her throwing events. Despite
a Meyers loss, Raheem Twyman kept the
boys meet against Holy Redeemer in sus-
pense by winning the 110 and 300 hurdles,
the long jump and running on the win-
ning 400 relay team. Crestwoods Ross
Gladey continues to cruise on the tennis
court, where he didnt surrender a point
during a striaght-set victory over Coughlin.
Coughlin really brought the Wood in a
girls lacrosse victory over Dallas, as Caitlyn
Wood scored ve goals and Brigid Wood
recorded a hat trick and added two assists
in a victory over Dallas. Coughlins Kaitlyn
Lukashewski also scored ve goals in that
game. Lake-Lehmans Alyssa Adams did
them all one better, scoring six times in a
victory over Dallas.

h i g h S c h o o l r o U n D U p
strikeouts and third in ERA in
the entire WVC.
Demko struck out the side in
the second and third innings,
part of seven consecutive Dallas
batters that fanned. She also re-
tired 13 of 14 during that span,
with a fourth-inning walk to
Maddie Perez the only glitch.
My rise was working much
better than at Lake-Lehman and
the change-ups, too, Demko
said.
Good thing because Hazle-
ton Areas bats and baserun-
ning werent. The Cougars had
scored 26 runs in their last two
games, but could only get one
girl across the plate Monday.
They also had two runners
thrown out stealing by Dallas
catcher Kelly Snyder and an-
other tagged out on a rundown
between third and home.
Mackenzie Yori scored the
games only run. She singled
with one out in the third, stole
second and moved to third on
Abby Sachses single to left.
Lexi Wolks sacrice y brought
her home.
It really puts the pressure on
you and you have to keep your
head up when youre pitching,
Demko said of pitching with a
precarious lead. We tried to get
more insurance runs, but Dallas
was pretty good at getting us
out.
Dallas starter Taylor Baker
never allowed the Cougars to
piece together a big inning.
She allowed just seven hits and
struck out four.
The Mountaineers (3-4),
though, failed to score for a
second consecutive game. They
didnt get a runner past second
the entire game. Katy Comitzs
yout in the sixth was the rst
out recorded outside the ineld.
She came a close to a home run
in the third, pulling the ball just
wide of the left-eld foul pole.
The loss was Dallas fourth
in a row and second consecu-
tive by a 1-0 score. Coach Joyce
Tinner stayed positive about the
setback to the team that is con-
sidered the WVCs best.
We hada couple roughgames
there, Tinner said. Hopefully,
today was a turning point for us.
To keep them 1-0 when theyve
been pounding the ball pretty
hard against a lot of teams. We
played well defensively, we just
didnt score any runs.

in the nal frame, the Bulldogs
got a clutch bases-loaded single
to right by Zach Kyttle.
The rst run scored easily, but
right elder Eric Zawatski de-
livered a strike to Gately at the
plate to gun down the potential
tying run. Sophomore Jordan
McCrummgot the next hitter to
pop it up to complete the save
and deliver the Mounts (4-2) a
win in their home opener.
It will be a very good facil-
ity (down the road), but were
real happy to have it right now,
Kashatus said. The seniors
have been looking forward to
this day for a real long time, just
to open up a new eld.
It wasnt all chaos, of course.
Dallas took the lead for good
in the fourth inning as Stepniak
launched a two-run homer to
put the Mountaineers back on
top. Ryan Zapoticky added a
critical two-run double with two
outs to cap off the frame and
also made a running catch of a
deep shot to center to end the
sixth.
Joe Favata had three hits and
three RBI to lead the Bulldogs
(5-2). Zapoticky, Petorak and
Stepniak all nished with three
hits for Dallas.
A big win for the Mounts. No
question, Kashatus said. The
guys accepted the challenge.

nings. Roberts connected in the
rst and third to help the Rays
take an early 5-0 lead.
Yankees inelder KevinYouki-
lis, who left Saturdays game at
Toronto with lower back stiff-
ness, was a late scratch Monday
after the back tightened up fol-
lowing batting practice.
Sabathia (3-2) had a three-
game winning streak end. The
left-hander gave up ve runs
and seven hits over seven in-
nings. By The Associated Press
Red Sox 9, Athletics 6

rebounded from a doubleheader
sweep by beating the Oakland
Athletics.
The Red Sox, swept by Kan-
sas City Sunday, scored three

three runs on three hits, walk-
ing ve. He also threw two wild

Phillies edge Pirates
on Rollins single
PHILADELPHIA Jimmy
Rollins hit a tiebreaking single
in the sixth inning and Jonathan
Pettibone had an impressive ma-
jor league debut to lead the Phil-
adelphia Phillies past the Pitts-
burgh Pirates 3-2 on Monday.
Pettibone allowed two runs
and six hits, striking out six in 5
1-3 innings.
Raul Valdes (1-0) got two outs
in the sixth to claim the win for
the Phillies and Jonathan Papel-
bon nished for his fourth save.
Pedro Alvarez and Russell

Pirates on a chilly night when
the temperature dipped below
50 degrees.
Pirates starter A.J. Burnett
gave up two runs and ve hits,
fanning seven in ve innings.
Jared Hughes (1-2) retired his
rst two batters in the sixth be-
fore running into trouble.
Cardinals 3, Nationals 2
WASHINGTON Yadier
Molina drove in the go-ahead
run in the sixth inning, back-
ing Shelby Millers strong start
Monday night, and the St. Louis
Cardinals returned to the site of
their Game 5 NL division series
victory last season with a 3-2
victory over the Washington Na-
tionals.
The other big hit for St. Louis
was Allen Craigs two-run dou-
ble in the third.
Miller (3-1) struck out eight
in 6 2-3 innings, allowing two
runs and four hits.
All the Cardinals runs came
against Dan Haren (1-3), who
gave up three runs and six hits

Keselowski shows his resiliency
By DAVE SKRETTA
AP Sports Writer
KANSAS CITY, Kan. Brad
Keselowski arrived at Kansas
Speedway with the specter of
NASCAR sanctions hanging
over Penske Racing, and the rst
fewlaps of Sundays race werent
going a whole lot better.
He sustained some dam-
age when he got bumped early
on, and then lost a lap when
he failed to get out of the pits
quickly enough. And by the time
the nal laps were ticking away,
the sheet metal on the rear of
the car had nally come loose,
apping like tinfoil in a 200 mph
breeze.
Through all the adversity,
though, Keselowski persevered.
After the back bumper
sheared off, he came in for a late
pit stop that allowed the crew of
his No. 2 Ford to patch things
up. Keselowski charged back
onto the track, and then through
the eld, roaring to a sixth-place
nish that made him feel as if
hed won the race.
Usually youre not happy un-
less you win, Keselowski admit-
ted, but you know, a day where
you can ght through adversity
like we did and get a solid nish,
thats kind of is a win, yes.
Especially given everything
the Penske team has gone
through.
The defending Sprint Cup
champions are sitting third in
points, trailing only Jimmie
Johnson and Kasey Kahne as
the series shifts to Richmond
next weekend.
But things could be getting a
lot more difcult.
Penske Racing was dealt se-
vere sanctions by NASCAR after
inspectors found unapproved
parts under the cars of Kesel-
owski and teammate Joey Lo-
gano two weeks ago at Texas.
Among the punishments were
six-race suspensions for seven
members of the two teams, pro-
bation through the end of the
year, $100,000 nes for each
crew chief and 25-point penal-
ties for each of the drivers.
The team has appealed the
sanctions, arguing that they
were operating in a gray area
with regard to modied rear-end
housings, and the hearing is ex-
pected to take place this week.
I certainly dont think its
cheating, Roger Penske told
The Associated Press from the
IndyCar race in Long Beach.
We all work in the gray areas.
Were trying to be as competi-
tive as we can be, weve got very
creative minds and it takes a lot
of creative minds to be competi-
tive.
It will be up to a three-mem-
ber panel to decide whether cre-
ative was also illegal.
In the meantime, Penske Rac-
ing arrived at Kansas Speedway
with crew chief Paul Wolfe and
the rest of the No. 2 team intact,
along with Loganos No. 22 team
and the No. 12 of Sam Hornish
Jr.
For most of the afternoon,
it was turning out to be forget-
table.
Logano bailed out on the
apron when he saw Kyle Busch
skidding down the banking of
the corner midway through the
race, but he had nowhere to
go. The two cars wound up in a
bone-jarring, nose-to-nose colli-
sion that sent debris scattering
over the tracks recently repaved
asphalt.
Hornish got into trouble with
84 laps to go when Marcos Am-
brose got sideways right in front
of him. The two collided, and
Casey Mears joined in a wreck
that also included Danica Pat-
rick, leaving two of the three
Penske entries looking like
aluminum cans that had been
stepped on.
Keselowskis car wasnt in
much better shape. The minor
damage to the rear quarter panel
from early in the race kept peel-
ing away bit by bit.
I could feel something was
wrong with it, but I couldnt see
it, Keselowski said afterward.
So you dont know what mag-
nitude it is. Obviously it must
have been pretty severe.
When it eventually popped
off, it brought out a caution that
allowed Matt Kenseth to seize
control, and ultimately hold off
Kahne for his second straight
win at Kansas.
But the yellow ag also al-
lowed the No. 2 team to nally
bend their car back into shape,
and that was enough for Kes-
elowski to start driving to the
front as the end neared.
Wasnt that great? Penske
said. With all the trouble they
had, and the accident on the rst
lap, and Joey and Sam being in
the wrong place at the wrong
time, I think it was an amazing
nish, and shows just howtough
the team is. Weve got to move
on here and keep on racing.
And keep showing the kind
of resilience they exhibited Sun-
day.
Weve been really strong al-
most every week, and its just a
matter of ghting through that
adversity that every race is go-
ing to throw at you, Keselowski
said, and I think my team did a
great job with that this weekend
and so far all year.

WASHINGTON Sales of previ-
ously occupied U.S. homes dipped in
March as the supply remained tight.
But the sales pace remained ahead of
last years.
The National Association of Real-
tors said Monday that sales dipped to a
seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.92
million, from 4.95 million in February.
Februarys gure was revised lower.
Sales in March were 10.3 percent
higher than a year earlier.
Sales have remained mostly un-
changed in the past four months
largely, analysts say, because of a lim-
ited supply of homes. Economists still
expect the housing market to continue
recovering this year.
The low supply, combined with ris-
ing demand for housing, could accel-
erate construction in coming months.
The Realtors group said buyer trafc
is 25 percent higher than it was a year
ago.
A disappointing result for U.S. ex-
isting-home sales, but with inventories
still very tight, the outlook remains fa-
vorable, Jennifer Lee, an economist at
BMO Capital Markets, said in a note to
clients.
A steady housing recovery is provid-
ing support to the economy this year.
Builders are starting work on more
homes, boosting construction jobs.
And home prices are rising. Higher
prices tend to make homeowners feel
wealthier and encourage more spend-
ing.
Still, the pace of purchases of previ-
ously occupied homes has been little
changed in recent months, partly be-
cause of the tight inventory. The supply
of available homes has fallen nearly 17
percent in the past year to 1.93 million.
At the current sales pace, that supply
would be exhausted in 4.7 months, be-
low the 6 months typical in a healthy
market.
The supply rose 1.6 percent from
February to March. The Realtors group
says it expects a much bigger increase
in supply this month as the spring sell-
ing season began.
A larger supply would suggest that
more sellers are putting their homes on
the market because theyre condent
they can fetch a good price.
The tight supply helps explain why
prices have been rising. The median
price rose 11.8 percent from February
to March to $184,300, the biggest one-
month gain since 2005.
BUSINESS
SECTI ON B
IN BRIEF
Google nedinGermany
A German regulator on Monday ned
Google Inc. about $190,000 for illegally
recording data from Wi-Fi networks while
taking mapping photos for its Street View
service. The regulator complained the
amount, limited by law, was too little to
dissuade large companies from violating
privacy laws.
The Hamburg commissioner for data
protectionandfreedomof information, Jo-
hannes Caspar, said Google captured data
from unencrypted Wi-Fi networks from
2008 until 2010.
After a two-year investigation, the Ham-
burg regulator determined Google had
negligently and without authorization
captured and stored personal information.
Google said Monday that it quickly
tightened its data collection systems to
address theissuewhenit learnedits Street
Vieweet was capturing Wi-Fi data.
Europe painbut little gain
The austerity pain pursued by a num-
ber of European countries led to very little
gain in 2012.
Figures Monday from Eurostat, the Eu-
ropean Unions statistics ofce, showed
that many of the countries hit hardest by
Europes nancial crisis, such as Portugal
and Spain, saw their budget decits in-
crease last year even though they have
pursued strict austerity policies designed
to get their public nances back into
shape. Though Europes combined decit
level fell during the year largely thanks
to Germany swinging into a budget sur-
plus countries continue to reel from
the impact of austerity. The overall debt
of the 17 EU countries that use the euro
rose from8.2 trillion euros ($10.7 trillion)
to8.6trillioneuros as theregionsankback
into recession.
Gradschool gets biggift
A new high-tech graduate school in
New York City is getting a $133 million
gift from a California based telecommuni-
cations leader.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced
the donation Monday by Qualcomms

tute at Cornell NYC Tech will be named
for Jacobs andhis wife, Joan. Cornell NYC
Tech is meant to link research and the real
world, while helping make New York a
high-tech hub. The city is chipping in free
land and up to $100 million in improve-
ments. Cornell University and Technion-
Israel Instituteof Technologywona seven-
way contest in 2011 to create the school.

Home sales slip due to tight supply

NEW YORK Call it the Salt
Lake shufe.
The spring ritual of bank share-
holder meetings is starting this
week, and two major banks San
Francisco-based Wells Fargo and
New York-based Goldman Sachs
are decamping fromtheir hometown
cities to Salt Lake City. If the cross-
pollination of Mormons and mam-
mon seems strange, its because the
two banks historically have held the
meetings in their headquarter cities.
This is the rst time that either has
pulled up stakes for SLC.
The banks say its because they
like to rotate their meetings among
the big cities where they have ma-
jor operations. The banks critics
say theyre just trying to avoid the
wrath of protesters. Wells Fargo had
held its meeting in San Francisco for
at least the past 14 years. Goldman
Sachs held its meeting in lower Man-
hattan for 11 straight years and then
moved across the Hudson River to
Jersey City for 2011 and 2012.
Wells Fargo points out that its
been doing business in Salt Lake
City since the 1850s, when it was
shuttling people, merchandise and
money across the country in stage-
coaches. It says it has nearly 4,000
employees in Utah, or 1.5 percent of
its total, and calls the capital city a
great venue.
Goldman Sachs points out that
Salt Lake City is home to its second-
largest ofce in the U.S., behind
only the New York/New Jersey
area. It has about 1,500 employees
there, 5 percent of the worldwide
total, in jobs including investment
banking, wealth management and
investment research.

NEW YORK A sharp decline
in the price of oil this month is mak-
ing gasoline cheaper at a time of year
when it typically gets more expensive.
Its a relief to motorists and business
owners and a positive development for
the economy.
Over the past three weeks, the price
of oil has fallen by 9 percent to $88 a
barrel. That has helped extend a slide
in gasoline prices that began in late
February. Nationwide, average retail
prices have fallen by 28 cents per gal-
lon, or 7 percent, since Feb. 27, to
$3.51 per gallon. Analysts say pump
prices could fall another 20 cents over
the next two months.
The price of oil is being driven lower
by rising global supplies and lower-
than-expected demand in the worlds
two largest economies, the United
States and China. As oil and gasoline
become more affordable, the economy
benets because goods become less
expensive to transport and motorists
have more money to spend on other
things. Over the course of a year, a de-
cline of 10 cents per gallon translates
to $13 billion in savings at the pump.
Diesel and jet fuel have also gotten
cheaper in recent weeks, which is good
news for truckers, airlines and other
energy-intensive businesses.
Gasoline prices typically rise in the
late winter and spring as reners shut
down parts of their plants to perform
maintenance and begin making more
costly blends of gasoline required by
federal clean-air regulations. The trend
was earlier and less dramatic this year.
Pump prices only came within 15 cents
of last years peak.
Oil production is growing quickly
in the U.S. and Canada, helping boost
global supplies. And some of the fac-
tors that pushed prices higher the two
previous years political turmoil
in North Africa and the Middle East
and renery disruptions in the U.S.
havent materialized this spring.
At the same time, demand for fu-
els is growing slower than expected.
China, the worlds biggest oil importer,
is experiencing slower-than-expected
economic growth. And much of Eu-
rope is in recession.
In the U.S., wintry weather in the
Midwest and Northeast has kept more
drivers off the roads this spring, ana-
lysts say. The typical U.S. household
will spend an estimated $326 on gaso-
line this April, the equivalent of 7.8
percent of median household income,
according to Fred Rozell, an analyst at
GasBuddy.com. Thats $38 less than
last April, when households spent 8.8
percent of their income on gas.

Youd never take an expired Rx, but
do you check to see if makeup is past
its prime?
Formulas change as they age and
may foster bacteria that could cause
infection if applied over a cut.
Here are the typical product life
spans and when its time to toss.
1. LIPSTICK: Lasts: Up to 2 years
Lipstick is one of the most stable
cosmetics because its oil based (bac-
teria breed more easily in water).
But after a year or two, natural oils
like those from avocado, sunower,
or safower can become rancid.
You wont have any negative health
effects, but the product wont go on
smooth and may taste strange.
Longer-lasting lipsticks without nat-
ural oils YSL Rouge Volupt Shine
($34; yslbeautyus.com), for example
are more durable.
2. FOUNDATION: Lasts: 6 months
to 1 year
You may see streakiness and
changes in color or texture after 6
months, as the liquid formula breaks
down and the pigment separates
from the rest of the product (called
demulsication).
If you keep it longer (more than 2
years), germs could build up as the
preservatives become less effective.
Longer lasting: Solid foundations,
such as Revlon Nearly Naked Powder
($10; Revlon.com), wont demulsify.
3. SUNSCREEN: Lasts: 6 months
to 1 year
Over time, sunscreen can destabi-
lize and lose SPF power.
Plus, the active ingredients may
become less evenly distributed in the
bottle, which means youll get spot-
tier coverage when you apply
Longer lasting sprays, like Neu-
trogena Beach Defense ($10.50;
neutrogena.com), have less contact
with air, so theyll last longer than
SPF in tubes.

There is no magic elixir, balm or

look and feel younger instantly.
Now, the good news: There are
plenty of simple steps you can take
that will improve your health, and
your appearance.
We talked to four experts in four
areas of health exercise, nutrition,
sleep and skin care to get practical
advice for people who want to make
changes without reinventing the
wheel. And heres what they told us:
EXERCISE
Brooke Leys-Campeau, who teach-
es Zumba Gold classes at the Tustin,
Calif. Area Senior Center, said when
she started with the class in Septem-
ber 2011, she took it easy on her pu-
pils. For many dancers of a certain
age, Zumba is a purely sit-down affair.
But Leys-Campeau quickly found that
her students were ready to boogie.
They were ready for more, she
says.
In her Tuesday morning class,
there are 25 or so people of varying
ages. One woman is in her 80s and
recovering from a stroke. A man, 65,
has lost more than 100 pounds over
the past few years, through various
activities. Somewhere along the line,
it occurred to Leys-Campeau that the
key to exercising is to nd something
you like.
People feel like, Oh my gosh, I
cant keep the rhythm, I feel like such
a dork. Its not an audition; its not a
competition. Some people have zero
rhythm and dont dance on beat the
entire class, and yet theyre smiling
and moving and having a great time.
Leys-Campeau says people should
remember their favorite activities
from childhood when considering
what kind of tness activities to pur-

Death
with dignity
for cancer
patients
By Karen KapLan
Los Angeles Times
LOS ANGELES A majority of
Americans support the idea of al-
lowing terminally ill patients to end
their lives with the help of their
doctors. For instance, 55 percent
of people questioned for the NPR-
Truven Health Analytics Health Poll
last year said they were in favor of
legalizing physician-assisted suicide.
A BBC World News America/Harris
Poll from the year before found that
58 percent believed that physician-
assisted suicide should be a legal op-
tion for patients who request it.
Its one thing to endorse physician-
assisted suicide in principle. But how
should it be implemented in prac-
tice? Thats a difcult question that
doctors, social workers and public
health experts in Seattle have grap-
pled with as they set up the Death
with Dignity Program at the Seattle
Cancer Care Alliance, or SCCA. They
describe their program in Thursdays
edition of the New England Journal
of Medicine.
Washington and Oregon are the
only states that allow physician-as-
sisted suicide (though Pennsylvania,
Vermont and Hawaii are currently
considering it), and cancer patients
are among those most likely to seek
it. The SCCA which serves cancer
patients being treated at the Fred
Hutchinson Cancer Research Center,
the University of Washington and Se-
attle Childrens is the only federal-
ly recognized comprehensive cancer
center serving those states.
So it was natural for leaders there
to consider a death with dignity pro-
gram after the Washington Legisla-
ture passed the Washington Death
with Dignity Act in November 2008.
The rst step was to poll doctors

the rapid increase in their presence in everything from canned
soups to frozen meals and yogurt snacks worries medical experts.
Dr. Arash Tirandaz, an internist on the medical staff at Texas Health
Presbyterian Hospital Plano, tells his patients that cutting down on
sugar and salt is one of the best ways to improve their health.
Too much sugar can
cause insulin resistance,
obesity and diabetes,
Tirandaz says. Salt can
cause water gain and high
blood pressure, which can
lead to heart failure, heart
attack and stroke.
The studies and books
that make this point keep
multiplying. The World
Health Organization rec-
ommended global goals
for reducing salt to lower
blood pressure in January.
The BMJ Group, a provid-
er of medical information
and services owned by the
British Medical Associa-
tion, cited new studies in
April supporting that ef-
fort; Britain has already
undertaken a national ef-
fort to reduce salt. A re-
cent study in Nature also
explores a link between
salt and autoimmune dis-
eases such as multiple
sclerosis in mice.
Last year, Dr. Robert H.
Lustig, a pediatric endo-
crinologist at the Universi-
ty of California, San Fran-
cisco, elaborated on his
thesis that sugar is a toxic
substance that causes
metabolic syndrome and
fatty liver disease in Fat
Chance: Beating the Odds
Against Sugar, Processed
Food, Obesity, and Dis-
ease (Hudson Street
Press, $25.95).
The majority of salt and
sugar we consume is in
processed and restaurant

group; if you loved baseball or
softball, join a slowpitch or fast-
pitch league.
There are all kinds of gyms,
tness centers and studios
(with varying price points)
you could join, but you should
check them out thoroughly,
read the ne print, and if you
want to join, wait until the end
of the month to get the maxi-
mum best deal.
If you dont like feeling
herded into a gym, try a home
workout. Leys-Campeau says
resistance tubes and bands can
provide just as good a workout
as machines at the gym. All
the exercises you can do with
free weights, you can do with
tubes and bands, she says.
Most come with instructional
DVDs or booklets. Its impor-
tant to use them with correct
technique to avoid injury.
If you need further help,
some personal trainers will
come to your home, and you
dont have to purchase a big
block of sessions at once. Leys-
Campeau has clients she works
with at their homes, where
shell show them a set of ex-
ercises, then come back in a
month for a follow-up.
There are so many different
options, she says. The most
important thing is for people to
nd something they enjoy, and
start out small. The biggest
mistake people make is they go
too far too fast, and either in-
jure themselves or get too sore,
and give up.
The bottom line: Your body
wants tomove, andevery little bit
helps, so do something you enjoy.
SLEEP
The American Psychologi-
cal Association says at least 40
million Americans suffer from
some type of sleep disorder, and
surveys show60 percent of us re-
port having trouble falling asleep
a fewnights a week or more.
If youre not getting your
seven-to-eight hours a night,
youre not alone.
We think the reasons for
that are multiple: It can either
be related to the fact that peo-
ple are working longer hours,
or people are trying to make
ends meet in these difcult
economic times, says Dr. Alon
Avidan, an associate professor
of neurology at UCLA and di-
rector of the schools Sleep Dis-
orders Center.
Whatever the reasons, our
own behaviors are responsible
for our sleeplessness: We watch
too much TV, play video games
or check our phones right be-
fore bed.
All of this makes it often
difcult for people to get an
appropriate period of sleep,
and therefore the population is
sleep-deprived, Avidan says.
The result can be as simple as
cognitive or memory problems,
or as serious as an increased
long-term risk of weight gain,
depression and diabetes.
Avidans advice: Go to bed
about the same time each
night; dont nap for more than
15 to 20 minutes a day; and
avoid alcohol and caffeine at
night.
Also, if you get too little sleep
one night, you cant make up
for it by doubling up the next
night; it doesnt work that way.
For every one hour of sleep
deprivation, get a full nights
sleep. Pull an all-nighter, and
you need several days of regu-
lar sleep, Avidan says.
If youre sleepy during the
day and snore at night, you
probably have obstructive sleep
apnea, in which the airway be-
comes blocked and the sleeper
wakes up repeatedly. This is a
dangerous health condition,
and a sleep specialist should be
consulted.
The gold standard of treat-
ment for sleep apnea, Avidan
says, remains the CPAP (con-
tinuous positive airway pres-
sure), a machine that pumps
a light ow of air into ones
mouth and/or nose to prevent
interruption. Many apnea suf-
ferers dont wear their CPAPs
because of discomfort or claus-
trophobia, but Avidan says
machines are getting lighter,
quieter and less intrusive all
the time. People who use them
regularly can notice a dramatic
improvement in alertness and
energy from getting the proper
amount of sleep.
The bottom line: Burning the
midnight oil is badfor your health.
SKIN CARE
Dr. Nancy Silverberg has
seen the fads come and go dur-
ing her 28 years as a dermatol-
ogist in Newport Beach, Calif.
But one truth is as certain as
the rising and setting of the
sun: That big old golden orb
can wreak havoc on your skin,
over time.
A lot of what you talk about
as skin aging actually is sun
damage, Silverberg says.
People in sun-blanched cli-
mates should wear sunscreen
365 days a year, Silverberg says.
Something with a sun-protection
factor (SPF) of 30 should do for
most people. But dont look at
only SPF, which covers just ul-
traviolet B (UVB) rays, the short-
er-wavelength rays that cause
sunburn. Longer rays (UVA)
penetrate deeper into the skin
and can cause long-termdamage;
both types of rays can cause skin
cancer.
Buy sunscreenthat says broad
spectrum, meaning it protects
against UVBand UVArays.
I tell patients, Unless youre
gonna be inside all day and
not step a pinkie toe outside
the door, you should have sun-
screen. And the best way to do
it is right in your bathroom, as
part of your normal daily rou-
tine, Silverberg said.
Any unusual bumps or discol-
orations that appear and dont
go away should be checked by a
dermatologist.
We recommend people
come in at least once a year,
especially those fair-skinned
Caucasians who live in sunny
areas, and get a skin check, Sil-
verberg said. Also, as the Amer-
ican Academy of Dermatolo-
gists recommends, check your
birthday suit on your birthday.
If you want to treat age spots,
wrinkles or other skin dam-
age, Silverberg says, there are
several treatment options. Her
practice, Silverberg Surgical &
Medical Group, does a lot of
Botox. Her group also offers
wrinkle llers like Juvederm
and Restylane.
There are laser procedures. A
common one is fractional CO2
resurfacing. It really changes
the look of the face, Silverberg
says of the carbon-dioxide laser
systemthat smoothes out wrin-
kles. We have husbands who
give it to their wives. Husbands
will say, What do you want, a
nice piece of jewelry? No, this
is what I want.
You get the idea that this
stuff isnt cheap. The full frac-
tional CO2 treatment runs
$3,500 to $4,000.
Botox treatment can range
from $300 to $600, and llers
are about $600 per syringe.
Theres also a cheaper laser
treatment called Fraxel, which
costs about $900 per session;
most patients do three to ve,
Silverberg said.
Insurance doesnt pay for
these treatments, unless some-
thing is done to treat a poten-
tially cancerous area. If a sus-
picious mole is biopsied, for
instance, insurance or Medi-
care will pay for it, even if it
turns out to be benign, Silver-
berg says.
The bottom line: Caring for
your skin isnt just for the well-to-
do.
NUTRITION
For years weve been told that
fat was the enemy of a good
diet. But awareness of high fat
and cholesterol intake has been
rising steadily, and still obesity
and diabetes remain at alarm-
ing levels.
That doesnt mean bacon
is a health food, says Irvine,
Calif.-based nutritionist De-
nise Canellos. But what weve
found is when people remove
saturated fat from their diets,
it really depends on what they
replace it with.
If you cut down on meat and
eat a bagel instead, youre still
getting starch, which the body
breaks down into sugar.
If you can replace some of
that saturated fat with healthy
fats, like olive oils, nuts, avoca-
do, sh and vegetables, youre
going to see an incredible ben-
et to your health.
Canellos likes cooking with
olive and sunower seed oil,
which arent as processed as
canola oil.
The other big piece of advice
Canellos has: Eat more vegeta-
bles. People dont eat as many
vegetables as they think theyre
eating.
Its very common for people
to get to dinner and not having
eaten one vegetable all day, and
maybe limited amounts of fruits.
We should also eat more
leafy greens, like baby spinach,
and less of our beloved iceberg
lettuce, which is much lower
in nutritional content. And its
OK to dollop on some dressing.
Same goes for the kids: Any
way you can get veggies down
the gullets of kids is OK, even
if ranch dressing or cheese are
piggybacking on top.
If your kids eat only broccoli
with cheese on it, give them
broccoli with cheese, Canellos
says. Then slowly cut back.
More advice: Eat more beans,
like lentils or black beans,
in soups and salads, because
theyre a great source of protein
and ber; substitute hummus
for onion dip or mayonnaise
on sandwiches; if you want a
healthy snack at the ofce, try
edamame (soybeans), which
you can buy pre-cooked and
shelled. And we forget about
the lowly baby carrot, Canel-
los says. When theyre dipped
in hummus, you get that cream-
iness of a dip, and the crunchy
of the veggies, and that can be
very satisfying.
Another great snack is nuts
especially peanuts, almonds,
pistachios, walnuts, pecans
and hazelnuts/lberts. They
have good fat in them, which
elevates levels of HDL (or
healthy cholesterol). Same
goes for nut butter: Slather it
on apples, pears or bananas,
but if you can buy the reduced-
sugar variety, do it. Not only
does it have that good fat, but
it also keeps us full and slows
our digestion, Canellos said.
The bottom line: Eat more
vegetables. Fresh are best, but
frozen are good, too.

to see if enough of them would
be willing to help patients
who wanted to end their lives.
Among the 81 who responded
to the survey, 50 said they
would be comfortable consult-
ing in such cases; among them,
29 were also willing to write the
prescriptions for lethal medica-
tions.
That was enough for the plan-
ners to move forward.
After much discussion and
debate, the planners set up the
following rules:
Nobody who works at SCCA
is required to participate in the
Death with Dignity Program.
The program is only avail-
able to patients under the care
of the SCCA, and patients may
not begin treatment at SCCA
just to gain access to the pro-
gram.
SCCA does not advertise
the program, even in its own
buildings.
Patients are
eligible only if
they are termi-
nally ill and have
no more than six
months to live.
They must
pass a psychologi-
cal assessment
to insure they
are competent to
make a decision of
this magnitude.
All patients
who request a le-
thal prescription
are told that palli-
ative care and hos-
pice treatment are
available to them (although 54
percent of Death with Dignity
patients are already in hospice
care at the time they make their
inquiries).
Patients must agree that
if they do take their lethal pre-
scriptions, they do so only in
a private place and in a pri-
vate manner. (One patient was
dropped from consideration for
failing to agree to this require-
ment.)
After patients have met all
the requirements, they must
wait at least 15 days before get-
ting a prescription for a lethal
dose of a barbiturate.
Between March 5, 2009, and
Dec. 31, 2011, 114 SCCA pa-
tients made at least initial in-
quiries about the Death with
Dignity Program, according to
the report. Among them, 44
or 39 percent went no
further and 30 or 26 percent
began working with a social
worker but either changed their
mind or died before they re-
ceived a prescription.
That leaves 40 patients who
did get a prescription. All of
them have died, but only 24 did
so as a result of taking secobar-
bital.
For some patients, simply
having the medication on hand
and knowing it was available
was enough.
Both patients and families
frequently express gratitude af-
ter the patient receives the pre-
scription, regardless of whether
it is ever lled or ingested, typi-
cally referencing an important
sense of control in an uncertain
situation, according to the re-
port.
There have been a few hic-
cups here and there, including
one patient who remained alive
overnight after taking seco-
barbital. Considering that the
drug is usually lethal in about
35 minutes, the patients fam-
ily became quite distressed. (It
kicked in eventually.)
Another hiccup is that 11 pa-
tients wound up living for lon-
ger than the six months they
were expected to have left. In
these cases, social workers have
opted not to inform physicians
out of fear that the
doctors will wait
until their patients
are closer to death
before they have a
frank conversation
about their prog-
nosis.
Most of the pa-
tients who wound
up receiving pre-
scriptions for
secobarbital were
white men who
had graduated
from college.
They were also
more likely than Washingto-
nians in general to have jobs.
When asked why they en-
tered the Death with Dignity
Program, 97 percent of patients
surveyed said they feared the
loss of autonomy that was
sure to come as they deterio-
rated. In addition, 89 percent
cited an inability to engage in
enjoyable activities and 75 per-
cent were concerned about loss
of dignity. Actual pain and fear
of future pain were mentioned
only 22 percent of the time, ac-
cording to the report.
You can read the study, Imple-
menting a Death with Dignity
Program at a Comprehensive
Cancer Center, on the New Eng-
land Journal of Medicine web-
site.
In addition, two doctors de-
bate the merits of allowing a hy-
pothetical 72-year-old man with
metastatic prostate cancer to
end his life with the help of his
physician on the website, www.
nejm.org.

foods, according to the Centers
for Disease Control and Preven-
tion. Current guidelines advise
adults to consume no more than
2,300 mg of sodium, or about
a teaspoon of salt, per day and
no more than 1,500 mg daily,
or teaspoon of salt, if you are
51 or older, are black, or have
high blood pressure, diabetes or
chronic kidney disease.
The American Heart Associa-
tion recommends limiting added
sugar to no more than 100 calo-
ries per day (about 6 teaspoons
or 24 grams of sugar) for women
and no more than 150 calories
per day (about 9 teaspoons or
36 grams of sugar) for men; the
Harvard School of Public Health
notes, however, that your body
doesnt need any carbohydrates
from added sugar.
Many Americans exceed what
they should consume of both
substances, the CDC reports.
Part of the reason is that many
might not realize howomnipres-
ent sugar and salt are in popular
products on grocery shelves, as
Michael Moss points out in his
new book, Salt Sugar Fat: How
the Food Giants Hooked Us
(Random House, $28).
Theyre so dependent on
these three ingredients, Moss
says of food manufacturers. It
goes far beyond the amount we
should be eating.
Speaking on the phone from
The New York Times, Moss, a
Pulitzer Prize-winning investi-
gative reporter, says one of the
reasons that salt has become
so pervasive is that it is a cheap
preservative that allows the
product to last longer, mask bad
avors and be sold for less mon-
ey. Sugar helps sell foods be-
cause it makes the taste of food
and drink irresistible, he says.
He describes a world of food
scientists, many too smart to eat
their own products, adjusting
levels of sugar and salt to nd
the bliss point for consumers.
Marketers have become in-
creasingly clever with labels,
too, he says. Half a cup of one
name-brand organic minestrone
has 580 mg of sodium. Similarly,
shoppers may pick up a low-fat
yogurt, not realizing that some
servings of certain brands have
more sugar than ice cream.
Some of the experts he in-
terviewed, including Paul Bre-
slin, a geneticist, biologist and
professor in the department of
nutritional sciences at Rutgers,
the State University of New Jer-
sey, suggest that salt and sugar
behave like narcotics, making
them hard to shake.
Ultimately whatever you eat
ends up in your blood, and our
body wants the blood levels for
everything from carbon diox-
ide to oxygen to salt and potas-
siumand lipids and glucose to
be constant, his book quotes
Breslin as saying. This is exactly
what happens when you take
drugs. When you inject heroin
into your body, your body says,
Holy cow, what have you done to
me? It has to try and metabolize
these things, and theres all kinds
of coping mechanisms for that.
Dr. Carolyn Matthews, direc-
tor of integrative medicine at
Baylor University Medical Cen-
ter, says shes seen phenomenal
results in her patients health
when they change their eating
habits.
Reducing sugar and salt, she
says, may not have as dramatic
effects as pharmaceuticals, but
they have pleiotropic (multiple)
effects, particularly with chronic
diseases. There are only upsides.
Dr. Tirandaz says hes proud
of patients like Roger Byrd, 63,
of Dallas, who is willing to give
up the tastes he loves.
Eating would give that satis-
faction in the moment I ate, and
then it was back to the same
thing, getting heavy and un-
happy, says Byrd on the phone,
adding that he had been more
than 300 pounds and suffering
from vascular disease.
In October, on Tirandazs rec-
ommendation, he switched to a
vegan diet of fruits, vegetables,
legumes and whole grains, free
of added salt and sugar, and
dropped to 240 pounds.
I still have a ways to go. But
I walk farther, I stand longer, I
have more energy and sleep is
good, Byrd says.
He no longer browses
through supermarkets, tempted
to try different items. Instead,
he makes a list, goes straight for
what he needs and doesnt stray.
His health has improved so
much that Tirandaz has halved
his blood pressure, blood thin-
ner and statin medications.
SALT
Continued from Page 1C
TIPS FOR REDUCING SODIUM
Buy fresh, plain frozen or canned with no salt added vegetables.
Use fresh poultry, sh and lean meat, rather than canned or pro-
cessed types
Use herbs, spices and salt-free seasoning blends in cooking and at the
table.
Cook rice, pasta and hot cereals without salt. Cut back on instant or
avored rice, pasta and cereal mixes, which usually have added salt.
Cut back on frozen dinners, pizza, packaged mixes, canned soups or
broths, and salad dressings these often have a lot of sodium.
Rinse canned foods, such as tuna, to remove some sodium.
Choose ready-to-eat breakfast cereals that are lower in sodium.

TIPS FOR REDUCING SUGAR
Drink water or other calorie-free drinks instead of sugary, nondiet
sodas or sports drinks or blended coffee drinks.
When you drink fruit juice, make sure its 100 percent fruit juice not
juice drinks with added sugar. Better yet, eat the fruit rather than drink
the juice.
Skip non-nutritious, sugary and frosted cereals, and be aware that
some breakfast cereals that seem healthy contain added sugar.
Opt for reduced-sugar varieties of syrups, jams, jellies and preserves.
Use condiments sparingly; salad dressings and ketchup have added
sugar.
Choose fresh fruit for dessert instead of cakes, cookies, pies, ice cream
and other sweets.
Buy canned fruit packed in water or juice, not syrup.

Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Ange-
les, CA 90069
For more Sudoku go to www.timesleader.com
O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: I have
been married for 18
years to a man I have
a good relationship
with. My problem is
he has always been
extremely rude to
my parents. They
arent critical or judgmental of him,
and they try hard to be friendly and
accommodating, perhaps thinking it
might lessen the rudeness he continu-
ally shows them.
Example: If my mom asks him how
his parents are doing, without look-
ing up from his cellphone hell grunt
and say, Theyre fine nothing
more. When we go out to dinner, he
usually doesnt join in the conversa-
tion. Instead, he just sits there with a
dismissive, bored look on his face.
I have told him I dont want him to
come with me when I visit them. It
only takes a few times before he asks
if he can come again and promises to
try to behave. But after a few visits,
he reverts back to his old, rude ways.
It has reached a point that its affect-
ing our marriage. Can you offer any
suggestions?
Tired of It in Toronto
Dear Tired Of It: It would be helpful
to know WHY your husband behaves
this way. Does he dislike your folks?
Does he have so little in common
with them he doesnt know how to
participate in a conversation with
them? Is he this way with any other
people?
Perhaps it would be better for
all concerned if he saw them with
you less often, say, 30 percent to 50
percent of the time. And before he
does, make sure he is up to the task
of being social because, as it stands, I
agree his behavior is rude.
Hes not a teenager with his nose
buried in a cellphone; hes an adult
who should know better. If he finds
your parents company less than stim-
ulating, he should be a better actor.
Dear Abby: Last year my darling
mother lost her battle with cancer.
Aside from grief and loss, a bigger
issue looms over my life. It concerns
my stepdad.
Before Mom was diagnosed, my
stepfather was a selfish, self-centered
man. At times he was mean to her to
the point that I wanted her to leave
him. In fairness, once Mom was diag-
nosed, he took excellent care of her
until her death.
I have other issues with my stepfa-
ther. He was inappropriate with me,
sharing things he should have kept to
himself. It caused my mother great
heartache and made me lose respect
for him. I am still uncomfortable
around him. Mom knew how I felt
and understood.
Now that she is gone, do I have any
obligation to him? He has a strained
relationship with his only child. My
sibling thinks Im too hard on him,
but doesnt understand the major
problems our stepdad caused. I dont
want to continue pretending I like
him. Please help, Abby.
Searching For Guidance
Dear Searching: No, you do not have
any obligation to your stepfather. If
your sibling wants to see him, thats
his/her choice. Explain to your sib-
ling your reasons for feeling the way
you do and if you encounter your
stepfather during family gatherings,
be polite and dont linger. That isnt
pretending to like the man; it is good
manners.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Husband who is always rude to in-laws should make himself scarce
To receive a collection of Abbys most
memorable and most frequently re-
quested poems and essays, send a busi-
ness-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus
check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in
Canada) to: Dear Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box
447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage
is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Youre
attracted to the interesting
choices of others. Those who
make ordinary choices will lose
you unless they adapt to the
need for novelty you feel now.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Doing
well is a matter of putting in the
time. Your enjoyment of a pro-
cess is a plus that makes work a
pleasure, but its not necessary
for the win. Victory depends on
focused efforts over time.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). What you
accomplish isnt nearly as impor-
tant as how you go about it. To
say that you are centered now
would be an understatement.
You are also calm, clear and
sourced by a power from within.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
The problem with doing your
research now is that the advice
and data you gather will likely be
contradictory, making the deci-
sion-making process even more
confusing than it seemed when
you knew nothing.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your social
graces are in top form. Youre
inviting, and you make it easy for
people to get to know who you
are, what youre about and how
to be a part of that.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Youre
a leader who likes to follow; its
how you learned effective lead-
ership in the first place. Knowing
what others need requires that
you see the scene from many
perspectives.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There are
those who just cant shake the
notion that talking about things
makes them better. Thats not
always true. Know the power of
silence.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Theres
something about your work that
you enjoy immensely, and the
most productive part of your day
occurs because you dwell awhile
in that feeling, ignoring all else.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
People will praise you, but
beware: Pride goeth before the
fall. Indeed, a puffed-up high-
and-mighty feeling lends just the
altitude necessary for a dramatic
drop. Humility is the way today.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It is
generally agreed that too many
cooks in the kitchen, chiefs in
the tribe or multitudes of any
other kind of ruler will not bring
good results. Let there be one
king now, and let that king be
you.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Remind yourself of your deeper
purpose, even if you think you
know it intrinsically. This is how
you prevent the distractions of
the day from sending you on a
quest for short-term gains.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). This is
a busy time for you. If you try to
cram too much in, youll waste
time and mobility feeling over-
whelmed. To empower yourself
instead, narrow your list and
take things one item at a time.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (April 23).
Your spiritual development helps
to elevate your experience of
life. It wont matter whether
your pleasures are many or few;
your enjoyment of them will be
intense. An authority will note
your wise handling of a knotty
problem, and youll be promoted.
Capricorn and Leo people adore
you. Your lucky numbers are: 6,
25, 33, 15 and 39.
