39 years later: Devastating storms share many similarities

Both Agnes and Lee followed nearly the same path north before stalling over NEPA.

Aunt Agnes and nephew Lee. The two storm systems separated by 39 years share many similarities; both formed off the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico in the western Caribbean Sea
and followed nearly the same path north before stalling over Northeastern Pennsylvania and causing record flooding of the Susquehanna River. The memory of the 1972 flood is still so fresh that when the river rapidly rose and mandatory evacuations were ordered on Sept. 7 and 8, Luzerne County officials warned residents to expect an Agnes-type flood. It was that and then some. Several days of rain from Agnes

Mosquito spraying scheduled

Aerial spraying to control mosquitoes that have bred as a result of the recent flooding in the Wyoming Valley is scheduled for Monday night. The state Department of Environmental Protection said a helicopter will apply the pesticide Dibrom on 45,000 acres in WilkesBarre and surrounding communities starting approximately 30 minutes before dusk. The pesticide has been used in North Carolina, Florida and Texas to control mosquitoes due to tropical weather activity in those areas, DEP said. In the event of adverse weather, the spraying will be rescheduled. Some mosquito species carry the West Nile virus, which causes brain inflammation. Mosquito samples carrying the virus have been identified in Luzerne County and 56 other counties. Four human cases have been confirmed statewide. People living in areas where samples have tested positive are at risk of contracting the virus. Residents can take steps to eliminate mosquito breeding areas: properly dispose of discarded items that can collect water; clean clogged rain gutters; turn over plastic wading pools when not in use; drill holes in the bottom of outdoor recycling containers. In addition, precautions can be taken to prevent mosquito bites, including the use of insect repellants and wearing long-sleeved shirts, long pants and socks when outdoors.

WEST PITTSTON Testing of the air inside a house near the Susquehanna River where a woman was found on Sept. 9 identified two gases that lowered the oxygen level, officials said. Still to be determined is what killed Carol Ann Mikols, 62, of Exeter, said Kevin Sunday, a spokesman for the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection. In an email Saturday, he said DEP
asked the federal Environmental Protection Agency to assist in analyzing the air. Samples were taken on Sept. 11. The results show that the ambient air Mikols at the time of sampling was heavily laden with methane and carbon dioxide, reflecting the depressed levels of oxygen found in the home, the DEP spokesman said. Mikols was watching the house at Susquehanna Avenue and Second Street for her sister, who was out of town. A neighbor found the body of Mikols in the basement of the house. The structure was not flooded by the
river that devastated other parts of the borough on Sept. 9 when it crested at a record level of 42.66 feet. An autopsy was performed Sept. 10 on Mikols, and the Luzerne County Coroners office has yet to determine the cause of her death. The office determined the death was an accident. A coroners investigation is ongoing and will determine what role, if any, these compounds played in the death, the DEP spokesman said. DEP also continues to investigate the matter, the spokesman said. Neighboring houses have been undergoing tests and the DEP spokesman said the results have shown normal background levels for oxygen and organic compounds.

Post-sale, WVHCS upgraded, profitable

When for-profit Community Health Systems, Inc. purchased the nonprofit Wyoming Valley Health Care System for $271 million in April 2009, the deal came with a few promises. Chief among them was that not only would Wilkes-Barre not lose its community hospital, but promised improvements would make the facility profitable for the first time in years. In the 28 months since the purchase, the once-struggling system has made its way into the black, increased surgical offerings and broken ground on a $53 million expansion project that will double the size of the emergency department and add a Heart and Vascular Institute Tower that expands cardiac care facilities. And thats not all. More than $2.2 million was spent to upgrade data center storage. An additional $1.6 million

Pumpkin shortage expected

a N ortheastern states are facingHallojack-o-lantern shortage this ween after Hurricane Irene destroyed hundreds of pumpkin patches across the region, farmers say. Wholesale prices have doubled as farmers nurse their surviving pumpkin plants toward a late harvest. Some farmers are trying to buy pumpkins from other regions to cover orders. I think theres going to be an extreme shortage of pumpkins this year, said Darcy Pray, owner of Darcys Family Farms in Keeseville, in upstate New York Ive tried buying from people down in the Pennsylvania area, Ive tried locally here and Ive tried reaching across the border to some farmers over in the Quebec area. Theres just none around. Hurricane Irene raked the Northeast in late August, bringing torrents of rain that overflowed rivers and flooded fields along the East Coast and into southern Canada. Pray saw his entire crop, about 15,000 to 20,000 pumpkins, washed into Lake Champlain.
GETTING A LEG UP ON FASHIONS
TEHRAN, IRAN
Deal in progress for hikers

The defense lawyer for two Americans jailed in Iran moved ahead with bail arrangements on Saturday, as international efforts intensified to seal a freedom-for-bail deal for the hikers convicted of spying. Masoud Shafiei told The Associated Press he was in court, following up the case of Shane Bauer of Minnesota and Josh Fattal of Pennsylvania. Shafiei said he hopes Irans judiciary will clear the way for payment of $1 million in exchange for the Americans release. Bauer and Fattal were detained along the Iran-Iraq border in July 2009 with their friend Sarah Shourd. She was released last September with mediation by Oman after $500,000 was paid. They maintain their innocence.

Military gay ban ends Tuesday

By JULIE WATSON Associated Press
Protesters storm university

Thousands of anti-government protesters in Yemen stormed the capitals main university Saturday, preventing the first day of classes from beginning and tearing down pictures of the longtime leader whose ouster they seek. The crowds are aiming to keep Yemens protest movement alive and out on the streets as the school year begins. Protests since February have failed to push President Ali Abdullah Saleh from power. He is currently in Saudi Arabia recovering from wounds sustained during an attack on the presidential compound in June.
HENDERSONVILLE, TENN.
SAN DIEGO Celebrations will mark the final countdown to the historic end of the U.S. militarys ban on openly gay troops, and even more partying will take place once it is lifted Tuesday. But in many ways change is already here. Subtle acts over the past months have reshaped military society in preparation for the U.S. armed forces policy shift. Supporters of repeal compare it to the racial de-segregation of troops more than 60 years ago.
Several have come out to their peers and commanders. A few have since placed photographs of their same-sex partners on their desks and attended military barbecues and softball games with their significant others. Air Force Lt. Col. Victor Fehrenbach, 42, came out on national TV in 2009 after the Air Force started discharge proceedings, which were later stalled by the repeal process. He reported for duty two AP PHOTO days later and was congratulated by colleagues. Fehrenbach was never kicked Victor Fehrenbach announced he was out and he will retire after 20 years in the gay in 2009 after the Air Force started discharge proceedings against him.

WASHINGTON Most of the top Republicans running for president are embracing plans to partially privatize Social Security, reviving a contentious issue that fizzled under President George W. Bush after Democrats relentlessly attacked it. As President Barack Obama sidesteps ways to keep the retirement system viable, his would-be rivals are keen on letting younger workers divert part of their payroll taxes into some type of personal account to be invested separately from Social Security. Any kind of Former Mas- privatization sachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney is sacrilegious has a version. for liberals Reps. Michele and many Bachmann of moderates.

Rick Perry who now rehas raised the idea of letting ceive benewhole groups, fits. such as state and local government workers, opt out of Social Security. These proposals are popular among conservatives who believe workers could get a better return from investing in publicly traded securities. But most in the Republican race have been careful to say they would fight to preserve traditional Social Security for current retirees and those approaching retirement. Younger workers, they say, should have more options. Romney says the stock market collapse in 2008 shouldnt scare workers away from investing in private accounts, but acknowledges its an issue. Given the volatility of investment values that we have just experienced, I would prefer that individual accounts were added to Social Security, not diverted from it, and that they were voluntary, Romney wrote in his book, No Apology. Any kind of privatization, however, is sacrilegious for liberals and many moderates. They say it would drain resources from the more than 50 million people who now receive benefits. Social Security experts say raising the privatization issue could give Democrats a potent political weapon.

Mother on suicide watch

A Middle Tennessee mother charged in the death of her newborn twins has been placed on suicide watch, and her lawyer says she has been given medication for her mental state while in jail. Lindsey Lowe, 25, was arrested Wednesday and is being held without bond after police say she smothered her two sons minutes after giving birth to them at her familys home in Hendersonville, just north of Nashville. WSMV-TV reports that authorities are concerned about her and have placed her on suicide watch while she is being held in jail in Sumner County.

The fresh attack into the Mediterranean coastal city of Sirte contrasted with a stalemate in the mountain enclave of Bani Walid where demoralized anti-Gadhafi forces tried to regroup after being beaten back by loyalist snipers and gunners holding strategic high ground.

to Gadhafi, weeks after the former rebels swept into Tripoli on Aug. 21 and pushed the countrys leader out of power and into hiding. Sirte and Bani Walid are the main bastions of backers of the old regime in Libyas coastal plain, but smaller holdouts remain in the deserts of the center of the country and another major stronghold, Sabha, lies in the deep south. Gadhafis location is still unknown.

W-B towing dispute turns into rally

By MATT HUGHES mhughes@timesleader.com
WILKES-BARRE What started as a dispute between the owner of a towed car and the citys contracted tower ballooned into a small political rally Friday, complete with placards, bull-horns and candidates eager to get their message out. The gathering in front of City Hall was organized by Forty Fort resident Mark Robbins, who since July has made allegations that citycontracted tower Leo Glodzik is involved in a kickback scheme with Mayor Thomas Leighton and Police Chief Gerard Dessoye. Robbins vehicle was towed June 1 by Glodziks company, LAG Towing, and Robbins contends he overcharged for the tow and that LAG damaged his vehicle. Robbins advertised Saturdays event as a protest against the Mayor and the City who allow monopoly pricing to exist, but the protest morphed into a more general political rally. I came here to make sure that
the contracts that the city engages in are being upheld as they are supposed to be, said Republican candidate for mayor Lisa Cope, who attended the event. It seems to have turned into a political rally. Cope was joined at the rally by other candidates, including Republican candidate for city controller Karen Ceppa and Libertarians Betsy Summers, candidate for mayor, and Tim Mullen, candidate for Luzerne County Council. All told about 20 turned out, holding placards reading messages like corruption in Leighton land and government servants not masters. Im surprised to see that hes not from the city; that hes an outsider that has an issue with the city, Ceppa said of Robbins. I think people will start to see that it isnt just the City of Wilkes-Barre, that there are people that live outside the city that have issues with the city, and I hope that people will recognize that when it comes time for the November election.
FRED ADAMS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER
Betsy Summers, candidate for mayor, protests in front of W-B City Hall on Saturday.
City officials were not present during the event. City spokesman Drew Mclaughlin declined comment. Robbins said he hoped the event would bring like-minded people together, and he felt it did. Theres a lot of people in WilkesBarre that have been victims of corruption, and that needed to suffer in silence, Robbins said. This is a forum where they can have a voice and meet other like-minded people.

Andy Tuzinski, director of Forty Fort boroughs Emergency Management Agency, stands near the levee off River Street on Sept. 7, the day before flooding began to pose a real threat to the borough. Tuzinski, along with Mayor Boyd Hoats and Council President Joe Chacke, monitored the situation at the levee in Forty Fort. Trouble was averted when truckloads of fill were brought in to stabilize areas of weakness near the cemetery and soccer fields.

area to the Forty Fort exit of the Cross Valley Expressway, where borough emergency responders who had shut down Wyoming Avenue guided them to a staging area at the Pennsylvania State police training center. Road flares lit the way through a gateway made in the cemetery fence to the levee. The first trucks had arrived and were depositing material on the dike within an hour. Ive been doing this for 25 years and Ive never seen that level of cooperation and the movement of resources; phenomenal, Tuzinski said. Thats just a sterling example of the inter- and intra-agency cooperation I received when I was trying to manage the operation. Everybody just rocked and rolled and got us what we needed and I just cant thank them enough. I guess Im fortunate in one aspect, that this isnt the first time weve had to do this, he added. So when I call the National Guard or I call the Sheriffs Department liaison its someone Ive
worked with in the past. Tuzinski added he was lucky to have received an abundance of good ideas from emergency responders and that the command structure helped put them into action efficiently. Late Thursday night, the borough was running short on the road flares that were lighting the way through the cemetery, Tuzinski said, by way of example. One of our firefighters had a brilliant idea; he went home and got some Christmas lights, and we hooked them up to a generator so we didnt have to keep changing the flares, he said. I was a lucky guy that night. I had a lot off people coming up to me with a lot of great ideas, and I was able to say, thats great. You handle that. Thats your baby I was the conductor, so to speak, waving the wand, but these are the guys that did all the work. Smart preparation again saved the borough from catastrophe the following morning, Tuzinski said.
By 2 or 3 a.m. Friday, enough material had been dumped on the levee behind the cemetery to assure the Corps of Engineers the situation was under control. A few more trucks were on their way bringing fill to the levee, and Mericle suggested leaving them near the soccer field at the Luzerne County Recreational Complex. At 6:30 a.m. Friday, Forty Fort Public Works Director Bob Barnard went to check on the levee near the soccer field and discovered several large sand boils about 300 feet from the levee. Sand beneath the levee is designed to act as a passive relief well, alleviating pressure on the dike by allowing water to pass through, but the sand being pushed out meant the levee was being eroded. Tuzinski snapped a quick picture with his cell phone and sent it to county Flood Protection Authority Executive Director Jim Brozena. County Engineer Joe Gibbons arrived soon after and
determined more fill was needed to stave off erosion. But Gibbons said the county didnt have enough trucks available to tackle the problem, so again they turned to Mericle. The hours of watching the operation, with an estimated 40 workers moving in and out of the danger zone in front of the dike, were tense, Tuzinski said, but the second shore-up operation moved as smoothly as the first. I was concerned Friday night, Tuzinski said. The way I looked at it was, OK, Ive got a major problem here, but were taking care of it. The best analogy I can think of is, youre sitting there; youre getting really bad chest pains and so you take an aspirin, and you call the hospital, go to the emergency room and everything will be fine. You wait and do nothing and you end up with a catastrophe. Fortunately, we had a huge aspirin tablet in the form of Rob Mericle and all the emergency responders. We avoided two catastrophes. We dodged two huge bullets, he continued. But the reason we dodged those bullets was because the plan worked. Whatever the plan was, whether it was a response plan, an evacuation plan, the plan worked. For the rest of the night, EMA continued to monitor the levee and prepare for the return of borough residents. About 12:30 Saturday morning, 39 hours after hed gotten up, Tuzinski crawled back into bed. All of our contributions to the flood relief effort have been completely voluntary, Mericle Construction said in a statement. We have no intention to seek reimbursement and never did.
GEISINGER
Continued from Page 3A
inpatient facility in that market, he said. And part of the mission is to show the community very quickly that Geisinger will continue to be part of it. When we expand our doctor group it takes four people for back-office billing and regulatory stuff, what have you. We have choices as to where we can place a lot of that back office because it does not have to be on our care-giving campuses. We may very well put some of that back office stuff in the middle of Scranton. Because what we have to show to the community is that were building jobs. We can do that very easily. Steele said that philosophy is partly reac-
tion to a fear in the Scranton area that Geisinger will come in and take away services and send patients to Wilkes-Barre for treatment. Geisinger wants to make very clear that wont be the case and if anything, he said, the plan is to add services to CMC. CMC President and Chief Executive Officer Robert P. Steigmeyer said he understands the concerns but has done his part to alleviate them, saying Geisinger will be a great partner. Absolutely there will be services that will be the same, Steigmeyer added. He agreed with Steele that the long-range plans of expanding offerings and deciding which campus will host one specialty practice will be done with both campuses in mind. As part of its proposed deal, Geisinger has agreed to invest $158.6 million for capital projects into CMC. Among the planned
upgrades would be new operating suites, improvements to the intensive care unit and the addition of an electronic health records system. At numerous times during the hour-long discussion, Steele made reference to the unique markets of Wilkes-Barre and Scranton and how long-held beliefs and attitudes have caused residents of each city to see itself as different and unattached from their neighbor. Its taken me11years to understand that not only are the markets different, but the cultures are different, Steele said. Decisions about services to be offered at Geisinger and CMC will be made with the concerns of the Scranton community in mind. We have to be fairly sensitive to some of the fears that our brethren in Scranton have, Steele said. Despite the fact that Ive learned after 11 years that the cultures
are different and theres this type of genetic barrier and in terms of travel either way, theres still a fear that Geisinger will come in and build GWV even bigger and turn CMC into an ambulatory what have you. Steele said that wont be the case. (CMC) will remain an extraordinarily active tertiary care hospital, Steele said. Steele said too often people in Scranton are leaving the region for medical procedures, whether theyre going to New York, Philadelphia, Allentown or Johns Hopkins in Maryland. He said for whatever reason, people in Scranton dont view coming to Wilkes-Barre as an option. And he said its not Geisingers primary goal to change that opinion. Because its a different market basically and we think that people wont come to Wilkes-Barre for their care. People arent going to leave Scranton to have heart sur-
gery at GWV. What people will do is theyll go from CMC to what used to be Mercy Scranton. We dont want to lose them. We want to expand. So the decision has been made to institute the Geisinger brand in the new market, attracting new patients from the growing counties of Pike, Monroe and Wayne, which more closely align themselves with Scranton than Wilkes-Barre. Steele said the Wyoming Valley and South Wilkes-Barre Geisinger facilities will not lose a thing and they could gain some new patients from Lackawanna County or its surrounding counties. Geisinger competes for patients with the former Mercy now Regional Hospital of Scranton and Moses Taylor hospital. Forprofit operator Community Health systems took over Mercy earlier this year and its acquisition of Moses Taylor is pending. thats not likely right now, he said. But that could change. He said getting the CHS brand out there, though probably with another regionally based name, is a goal for the future. Once that happens, he said, hospitals might begin sharing more, referring more and attracting patients over county lines. I think youll see more of a regional presence Youll see us grow beyond Wilkes-Barre, beyond Luzerne County, Catena said. He said health care might do something few others have been able to do. I think it will start to break down the barrier (between the counties), Catena said.
CHS
investment was made in the electronic medical records system and physical upgrades to manage and ensure primary and redundant electrical supply to the data center building costing more than $975,000 were also done. Investments in surgical technology have expanded the health systems clinical capabilities. Included is about $2 million for new patient monitors and respiratory support systems, as well as specialized neurosurgical tools and
acquisition of the advanced daVinci robotic surgical system. The da Vanci system currently is used for urologic and gynecologic surgery and has great potential for other surgical specialties. Investments in new diagnostic and imaging equipment, including new X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging and stereotactic breast biopsy technology amount to almost $2.5 million. Cornelio Catena, the systems chief executive officer, said the welcome that the Tennesseebased company has received since coming to Wilkes-Barre has just been tremendous. He said people wanted to save their
hospital and CHS gave them the best option for doing that. The medical care landscape has changed dramatically since the time CHS has moved into Northeastern Pennsylvania. Three hospitals in the region have changed owners and three more are in the process of being purchased. If all the deals are approved, all of the hospitals in Scranton and Greater WilkesBarre will be owned by either Community Health or the Danville-based nonprofit Geisinger Health System. Other than Hazleton General Hospital and Marian Community Hospital in Carbondale, every
other hospital in Luzerne, Wyoming and Lackawanna counties could soon be operated by those two health systems. Catena, during a recent meeting with The Times Leader editorial board, said having two quality health care systems competing with each other makes both companies stronger and creates another beneficiary. I think when you have two good strong systems, the group that benefits is the patients, he said. He said that while the two systems have a different philosophy a different approach, youll see an increase in quality. The two systems share at least
one outlook; that the Scranton and Wilkes-Barre markets are separate and unique. That means that even though CHS now operates single hospitals in Tunkhannock, Nanticoke and Wilkes-Barre, and one in Scranton Regional Hospital of Scranton -- with a second one, Moses Taylor pending, they are each viewed as separate entities, and Catena said they will continue to have duplication of services. Wilkes-Barre and Scranton are really two different markets in health care, in shopping I think there will be more collaboration up there but as far as patients from there coming over here

ment Agency Director Steve Bekanichs wife called him after she saw him on the televised press conference. She said she could see it in my face and hear it in my voice that its going to get bad, he said. She asked how bad it was going to get. I told her I didnt know, he said. The Bekanich family lives in Plymouth, which was impacted by the evacuation. He struggled to be assertive about the importance of evacuating while trying not to panic people to the point that there would be mass chaos. The not knowing what was coming that was the scary part for me, he said. 8 a.m., Plains Township John Stopay peered at his business, Jon L Stopay Candies, from a back road on high ground since River Street was blocked off. He wanted to see if there was still time to grab more items. The candy shop went through several floods since it was located there in 1972, but never had more than 18 inches of water. It was no use. He found four feet of water inside the building, which was still packed with display cases for his candy. The 73-year-old said he may rent another location for the holiday season to sell the candy manufactured elsewhere, but hes not sure about the long-term plans for his business, which employs about 10 full-timers. Stopays father started the candy business in the 1940s. 8:30 a.m., Exeter Borough Councilman Richard Murawski realized it was likely the Susquehanna River would cross Susquehanna Avenue, threatening more than the roughly 20 homes on the river side of the street. He made the call to build a levee in the middle of the avenue running several blocks, requiring more than 60 loads of a clay material. At one point the man-made wall held back seven feet of water, he said. The councilman said he wasnt willing to let the river hit more homes without a fight. I was sweating bullets, Murawski said. 9:30 a.m., West Pittston Valerie Horchos and her fianc, Rob Schultz, tried to elevate antique wood furnishings from an out-of-state soda fountain shop inside their multi-unit building on the corner of Warren Street and Luzerne Avenue. They had traveled to Louisiana to pick up the furnishings because theyre trying to keep the character of the cavernous old building theyre remodeling. It has three storefronts, with one already redone in their quest to bring back window shopping. The door on the finished portion was salvaged from a townhouse in the Bronx. By that time, the Susquehanna had advanced within sight on both Warren Street and Luzerne Avenue. You could see the reflection of the water, Schultz said. They later returned to find about four feet on the first floor. They are hoping to salvage the furnishings but want some reassurances that a flood-protection solution will be implemented for their neighborhood before they proceed with renovations. We want to stay here, but we want to make sure the building will be here 50 years from now,

impacted municipalities. 5:30 p.m., Wilkes-Barre West Pittston Mayor Tony Denisco lost his optimism that his borough would make it through relatively unscathed when he attended the briefing at county EMA. I thought maybe some miracle would happen that the Denisco water would just be on the street. I knew from the tone of their voices that we were in trouble, Denisco said. 6 p.m., Wilkes-Barre Luzerne County evacuated about 50,000 people in low-lying areas that were not protected by the Wyoming Valley Levee. The river was now 12.66 feet. 6:15 p.m. Exeter Township Dan Fetch, the townships emergency management agency director and fire chief, started knocking on doors, warning residents to heed the evacuation. The countys warning about the rising river was serious. Fetch was baptized as a firefighter and emergency worker in the 1972 Agnes flood and had witnessed the Susquehannas voraciousness and violence. Many residents in the155 properties visited by Fetch and others bolted, but some wouldnt budge. Fetch made it clear that roads would be flooded, and he couldnt endanger the lives of emergency workers to rescue people who had ample notice to evacuate. We kept track of the people who werent leaving and told them to put their Social Security numbers on their arm or their drivers license in their shoe so we could identify them if something happened to them, Fetch said. Some were later trapped, but there were no reported deaths or injuries. About 65 properties were flooded, including 32 mobile homes that were completely destroyed. 8 p.m., Wilkes-Barre, Kingston The Market Street Bridge over the Susquehanna River was closed to traffic and blocked with flood gate closures. 4 a.m., Wilkes-Barre Luzerne County Commissioner Stephen A. Urban made his personal decision that people protected by the Wyoming Valley Levee must be evacuated because the river was predicted to rise to 39.9 feet. Urban The river was now at 21.65 feet. I was always confident that the levee would hold, but I figured it was better for people to be out of the area, he said. 6:10 a.m., Wilkes-Barre Luzerne County officials held a press conference to announce they were ordering an evacuation of levee-protected areas impacted by Agnes in 1972. 6:30 a.m., Wilkes-Barre County Emergency Manage-

Horchos said. 11:30, Plains Township Jennifer Whitesell ran down her basement steps to grab the school clothing she had just purchased for her grandchildren. The Susquehanna River, normally a 10-minute walk away from her River Street home, gushed in, stopping her in her tracks. Would she be electrocuted or trapped? She dropped the shopping bags and fled up the basement stairs, rushing her family to the car. It was scary. Up to that point, I was still under the illusion this was not a flood zone and that wed be OK, said Whitesell, who bought the property in 2006 from someone who assured her it had not been flooded in 1972. The basement filled up to the ceiling after the family left, and the flooring on the first floor may also be damaged. The family must come up with money to rewire the entire house before the
electricity may be restored. Noon, Forty Fort A crack was found in the concrete levee wall behind the Forty Fort Cemetery. The river level: 30.55 feet. 1 p.m., Kingston Luzerne County Chief Engineer Joe Gibbons arrived at the D&L Railroad levee closure by the Kirby Park tennis courts to set up sandbags. Gibbons had been up 36 hours without sleep making sure the levee flood gates and pumping stations were in order, and he was struggling to muster up another burst of energy. He Gibbons didnt expect many citizen volunteers because the mandatory evacuation was hours away. He was wrong.
I probably had 50 residents there helping me. One guy even told me to sit down for a few minutes and relax, Gibbons recalled. Here are all these people trying to help sandbag instead of staying home to try to save their own belongings. That was really nice. 2 p.m., Wilkes-Barre Philadelphia native Seleda Matthews rounded up toiletries, clothes, food, important paperwork, identification, music, cell phones, chargers, books, coloring books, medication, her Bible and toys including a Bratz doll head with tangled hair that her younger daughter put on the must-have list. She squeezed everything into bags and a suitcase and rushed her three children, ages 4, 9 and 20, from their Rowland Street apartment to the emergency shelter at GAR Memorial Junior/Senior High. Matthews never had to think
about flooding until she moved here a year ago. Theres no need to worry. What will be will be. By the graces of God, we will be alright, she said at the time. 3:45 p.m., Wilkes-Barre The Veterans Memorial Bridge in Wilkes-Barre closed, with the river at 34.52 feet. 4 p.m., Wilkes-Barre Flood victims paid little if any attention to the loud singing of Edward Rehill in the lobby seating area at GAR. The 86-year-old resident of the Bnai Brith Apartments said he was crooning to exercise his voice and stay awake. At that moment, he was belting out a love song in Italian as two basketball games were under way in the nearby gymnasium. A few minutes earlier, he had had been leaning to the side as he dozed off in the folding chair.

Rehill said he wouldnt get much sleep at the shelter because he has insomnia. He wasnt worried about the belongings he left behind because he watched the levee construction and was confident it would hold up. I just want to get back to my apartment, he said. 4:30 p.m., Forty Fort Seepage was found by the cracked levee wall in the Forty Fort Cemetery, prompting officials to bring in heavy equipment and dump trucks with several hundred tons of rock and dirt to stabilize it. 4:51 p.m., Wilkes-Barre As the city streets became deserted, the owners of Salci Enterprises on South Main Street worked past the evacuation to finish loading more small equipment from the business into a vehicle. The family had been moving since 8:30 a.m. 5 p.m., Jenkins Township Joe Sagliocco fled his Main Street home, tears in his eyes, as water poured into his basement. He had spent the previous night moving belongings from his basement and was trying to grasp the possibility that the water wouldnt stop there. I had to go. I realized I was losing everything right in front of my eyes, and there was nothing I could do to stop it, Sagliocco said. The property ended up with several feet on the first floor. He has flood insurance but had no idea what it will and wont cover. Sagliocco, a Luzerne County probation officer, and his wife, Dorothy, built the property in 1994, thinking it would be out of harms way. Adding to their pain, someone later stole an antique milk can and three pieces of antique furniture that belonged to Dorothys family. The items had been behind the home nowhere near the water-damaged heap of belongings at the curb. Were trying to save stuff, and someone is stealing it, Dorothy said. 7 p.m., Duryea Steve Milewski ran back to his Chittenden Street home to grab prescriptions. He took one last look at the Lackawanna River heading toward his home through the Holy Rosary Cemetery behind his property. Milewski had tried to get everything out of the basement, but it was too packed since he has no attic. I thought I would get a few inches in the basement, he said. He later found eight feet. 7:30 p.m., Plains Township About 100 customers and spectators packed the outdoor deck of the River Grille at the Waterfront Complex in Plains Township to watch the debris floating in the passing Susquehanna, which was now at 37.55 feet. General Manager Will Ouellette said the restaurant did not close because it is elevated and was accessible from the Cross Valley Expressway. Were high enough here that everyone was safe, and a lot of the evacuated people had nowhere to go. Many came to get a bite to eat, he said. Propane tanks, sheds, massive trees, oil drums and a refrigerator were among the floating items spotted by people on the deck, he said. We were all watching a lot of crazy debris going by, he said. 9:30 p.m., Wilkes-Barre A Wilkes-Barre police officer stood at Market Street near Public Square to make sure nobody

went near the Market Street Bridge flood gate as workers struggled to stop seepage from a compromised seal. It was tense because nobody knew for certain that the fix would work. As a precaution, the police officer faced his car away from the gate so he could jump in and floor it to higher ground if the gate burst. 11 p.m., Plymouth Township John Rinehimer, in full emergency response mode as chief of the townships Tilbury Fire and Rescue, viewed a cell phone photo of his home sent by a neighbor. Rinehimer was the first property owner in the township to jack up his home on a new high foundation, which meant the first floor should be untouched at a river level of 41 feet. He and his wife didnt move anything off the first floor. The picture showed he had first-floor flooding. Well that didnt work, he told his wife. All firefighters in the Tilbury station had water in their residences, and the station was also flooded, Rinehimer said. We know how to compartmentalize. We take care of the people in the town and also deal with our personal issues, the chief said. 5 a.m., Wilkes-Barre Wyoming Valley Levee overseer Jim Brozena confirmed that the Susquehanna was cresting at 42.6 feet, which would push the levee to the max. The levee was designed to hold 41 feet, though it had a three-foot top board to handle waves and debris. Brozena alBrozena ways knew in the back of his mind that a flood exceeding Agnes was possible, but he didnt expect to experience it during his

He praised engineering professionals, volunteers and a team of professionals from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers who helped respond to seepage and other problems arising from the prolonged and unprecedented stress on the flood control system. I wasnt running this alone, he said. 6 a.m., Duryea It was just getting light out when Duryea resident Corey Wasko walked toward Chittenden Street to see if a relatives home had water. His mouth literally hung open when he saw that neighborhood flooded to many second floors. He snapped photos with his cell phone showing the water had almost reached the wording on a stop sign. It was intense. It was overwhelming, he said. 6:30 a.m., Forty Fort Large boils were discovered at the levee behind the county recreational complex near the Wyoming Valley Airport in Forty Fort, requiring about 1,000 tons of dirt and rock. 7 a.m., Wyoming Valley The Susquehanna crested at 42.66 feet. 8 a.m., Plymouth With all the revisions in the river crest, borough coordinator Joe Mazur climbed the levee to make sure the water wasnt going to spill into his municipality. He was in his 30s during Agnes and remembers the destruction like it was yesterday. The levee held, though many homes along the wall had basement flooding, probably from seepage, he said. Several businesses by the old Carey Avenue Bridge that are not protected by the levee also flooded. I was the happiest person on earth that it didnt go over the levee. The levee system really did its job. I cant praise it enough, he said.
Cleaning begins on the Shickshinny Municipal Building on Monday. The Shickshinny area suffered severe damage in the flooding.
1 p.m., Plymouth Veronica Harrison had to return to her Beade Street apartment because emergency workers needed her to move a vehicle so they could address seepage at the Wyoming Valley Levee behind the property. The basement of the property was flooded, and she ran inside to grab some more clothes for her 11-year-old son. Already shaken by the chaos, she noticed the glass on the back door was smashed. She discovered numerous items had been stolen from the second floor, including video game systems, about 150 DVDs and a digital camera. The items were worth thousands, and many belonged to her son. I just freaked out. I couldnt even believe someone would do this to us, said Harrison, who also lives with her boyfriend, Geoff Engle. 1:30 p.m., Wilkes-Barre Luzerne County officials announced that the Wyoming Valley Levee was under extreme stress because it had never been tested at river levels so high.

Her home was elevated so the first floor was one foot above Agnes levels, and she ended up with three inches on the first floor. She was thankful the foundation survived.

He came to offer words of comfort and supplies paper towels, shovels, drinks, ready-to-eat meals and gloves. Several homes had only remnants of the foundation left, and the odor of sewage was overpowering. It just reminds me of when you see these foreign countries in a war. It looked like there was a war here, he said. Im just trying to do what I can do to help. 4 p.m., Jenkins Township The Eighth Street Bridge linking the township and Wyoming reopened. Motorists were now able to pass through most of the areas devastated by flooding to see the damage firsthand. Workers in the patch continued to pump water out of streets and homes, forcing it back into the river. There was now plenty available space in the river banks. The Susquehanna had receded to 16.88 feet. Times Leader staff writers Jerry Lynott and Edward Lewis contributed to this report.

peacefully passed away Tuesday, September 13, 2011, at St. Agnes Hospital, Baltimore, Md. One of nine children, and affectionately known as Kitty or Kate, she was born and raised in Nanticoke. She was preceded in death by her parents, Katherine Hughes Kosker and James Kosker of Irvington, N.J.; and several siblings. She is survived by her daughter Arlene and husband, Kevin Prescott, of Parkton, Md.; son, Edward Uzdilla of Wilkes-Barre; daughter Barbara and husband, Paul Bowman, of Mountain Top; grandchildren, Melissa and Neil Prescott, Edward Uzdilla III, and Samantha and Bailey Bowman. Kate resided in Catonsville, Md., for the past 25 years. What she enjoyed most was spending time with her family, a good game of pinochle, go fish, checkers, shoe shopping, and, in her younger days, dancing. She was a superb baker with special recipes for chocolate chip cookies, pineapple raisin fill cookies, and her famous lemon meringue and coconut cream pies.
BILL TARUTIS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER
Interment was at St Marys Cemetery, Hanover Township. Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there; I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow, I am the sun on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the mornings hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circling flight. I am the soft starlight at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there; I did not die. -----written by Mary Frye

Pachs friendly nature made him an easy favorite for children. But Pach is a member of the canine unit, specially trained to detect explosives and track people. Sgt. Tom Skrutski of the Special Emergency Response Team (SERT), came from Dunmore with a display of heavy body armor, a kevlar helmet, and five different guns. The SERT team is the State Police version of a SWAT team, he said. This is a part of the
State Police force not normally seen by the public. There are two SERT teams in the state, SERT West and SERT East. Each team has divisions spread through each region. Skrutski said SERT East team, which includes his team based in Dunmore, has responded to 100 incidents this year. After cruising through some of the displays and talking with officers, Jacob Siley, 10, of Luzerne, said he is interested in becoming either a police officer or a lawyer. He said he liked the cool equipment and firearms. His favorite areas were the helicopter, the police dog, and the motorcycle.

Former Illinois Senator and Chicago businessman Charles Percy dies at age of 91
By KAREN HAWKINS Associated Press
CHICAGO Former Sen. Charles H. Percy, a successful Chicago businessman once widely viewed as a top presidential contender, described himself as a conservative on money issues
but a liberal on people issues. That unwavering commitment to moderate values often put the former Foreign Relations Committee chairman at odds with conservatives in the Republican party, including former President Richard Nixon, but that
didnt deter him in the nearly 20 years he represented Illinois in the Senate. Percy sponsored a resolution calling for a special prosecutor in the Watergate scandal and became a critic of the Vietnam War. He died Saturday in Washing-

Susan Porter Allen, a student at LCCC, sang the national anthem, and Hold My Hand, a song she wrote in honor of her nephew, who served in Afghanistan and became a triple amputee after being a victim of an IED. Phyllis Carlo of Newport Township presented a wreath in honor of all first responders and her son, Michael Scott Carlo, a New York firefighter with Engine #230 in Brooklyn who was killed at the World Trade Center on 9/ 11. He was 34. He lived life to the fullest, she said of her son. Wearing a necklace with a photo of Michael in his uniform, Carlo said her son had always wanted to be a firefighter, and followed in his older brother Roberts footsteps. They were both working that day, she said. Robert, who was with a fire department in Harlem, was on his way to the World Trade Center that day, but was told to turn

blame for their situation or become agitated easily. Others will experience somatic physical symptoms of stress like headaches and stomach pains. Some will have trouble concentrating and experience lapses in their shortterm memory, and others will turn to substance abuse as a way of coping. For a smaller group coping with post-traumatic stress disorder, the floods impact could cut deeper and become even harder to overcome. People who were in Agnes; people who had other trauma in their lives will all of a sudden feel vulnerable again because old trauma is being triggered, she said. To help those in need, Benson is offering free group therapy sessions for flood victims at her practice in Exeter, Tiffany Griffiths Psy.D. & Associates, Inc. People need to process what theyve been through and find a safe way to deal with that, she said. It could be talking to their family and friends; it could be journaling; it could be physical activities. Jewish Family Service of Greater Wilkes-Barre is also making
its services available to those struggling to cope with the psychological and emotional impact of flooding. Executive Director Howard J. Grossman said the mental health impact of disasters like the flood can be forgotten in the rush to meet the physical needs of an individual or family. They have a lot of responsibility now with the need to fill out the forms and get to the disaster center, he said. We know from experience that right away theyll be a kind of governmental support that is feasible under the circumstances that we all find ourselves in. We wanted to get information out on the emotional side as well for people that need that after experiencing the devastation that occurred. Like Helpline, Grossman said Jewish Family Service can provide referrals to a host of other agencies, but its employees also are available to lend a sympathetic ear if thats what is needed. What we like to do is have the person somehow get to our office, sit down and talk out what the problem may be, he said. If we cant handle it we can refer them, or Ill pick up the phone and call someone on behalf of the person. Few have responded so far. One family has sought help from Jewish Family Service and no one has yet signed up for Bensons therapy group, but Grossman and Benson expect many more to seek help as time passes and the gravity of what has happened starts to sink in. People may start experiencing it around the holidays, when they cant go back to their homes, and thats not that far away, Benson said. Then you have the issue of displacement. You dont belong anywhere now, where do you go? That has its cumulative effect over time.

Ways to cope with trauma of flood

Counselor says most important thing is to take care of yourself.
The loss of property destroyed by flooding, the sense of danger and uncertainty left by evacuation orders and the stress of picking up the pieces are traumatic experiences that could take a heavy emotional toll on victims of the flood of 2011. As licensed counselor Linda Benson explained, peoples primitive instincts in the face of trauma tell them to fight, flee or freeze.
They may fight, seeking to place blame for their situation or lashing out at others; they may flee, seeking to throw up their hands and leave their devastated properties behind; or they may freeze, becoming withdrawn and confused about where to turn next. Benson, a specialist in posttraumatic stress, said there are ways to cope with the trauma of flooding and move beyond the initial shock. For those struggling to reconstruct their lives after the flood, she offers the following advice: Take care of yourself: Cleaning up and repairing ones property, filing insurance claims and navigating the government disaster relief network can be a
time-consuming and stressful process. Stress can also create physiological symptoms. Remember to eat well and frequently enough and to get enough rest. Do what you have to do to take care of business, but at the same time, take care of yourself; thats the main message, Benson said. Accept your situation: Realize that you cant just make this go away, Benson said. Whatever youre feeling, accept your feelings (and) cope with them as best you can without lashing out in ways that will cause harm. Hold onto your sense of hope: Realize that your present experience, like all things, will
pass. Realize that others are suffering through similar problems and that you are not alone. If spirituality is important to you, turn to your spiritual beliefs for guidance and reassurance. Keep your spirits up: Try to find some humor in your situation. Find safe distractions. Funny movies are good, so are old re-runs, Benson said. Escape with a hobby, if you have one, at least some of the time. Reach out to others: Talking to neighbors facing the same situation can be therapeutic for many. Benson is offering free group therapy sessions to those affected by flooding. She can be reached at 602-7753.

REMEMBER WHEN
Putting pencil to lined paper back in 1951

ometimes you set out looking for something, but what you find instead is a lot more interesting. I dont remember why I was up in the attic. In a cardboard box under the eaves was a mishmash of faded holiday decorations, wires from forgotten electronics and God-knows-what-else. And there, amid the chaos, was a single green wooden school pencil, with no eraser. Settled in my seat, I glanced around the fourth-grade classroom at Dodson Elementary School. There were a few kids I didnt recognize, and I knew nothing about the teacher who would guide us through the next nine months, Miss Clarissa Hart. But I wasnt worried on that day 60 years ago, for I had the latest in hightech academic gear right before me. Lying upon the flip-top desk was my brand new five-cent tablet of writing paper. Yes, things were a bit different for children starting the school year back then in Wilkes-Barre. Parents didnt have to spring for $1,200 to buy their little darlings a laptop and an iWhosis. Instead, a day or two before classes started youd send the kid down to the corner store with a nickel to pick up a paper-covered tablet to supplement the big sheets of lined paper the school provided. The teacher gave you the pencils, too round green pencils with no erasers. There was a sharpener on the classroom wall. Bottom line: Kids attending the Wilkes-Barre public schools in 1951 were probably closer to the ancient Sumerians with their clay tablets and whittled styluses than they are to the children of today in the way they recorded and processed lessons. But maybe that wasnt so bad. There is something to be said for the simplicity practiced less than a lifetime ago. With everything based on written textbooks, you actually studied your textbooks on the dining room table under your parents eye. There was no temptation to keystroke out of a learning program and start surfing the Web or adding to your stock of friends. The painful duty of homework was easier to get out of the way before the first cry of Hi-yo Silver from the big console radio in the living room. Simplicity manifested itself in other ways for the young circa 1951. The walk to school (no buses in those days) was often quite interesting, even educational. Mine took me past a porch with a parrot whose plumage was almost as colorful as his language. The bird made me think about distant lands, mythic voyages and the wonders of the natural world. You could pass the whole Philadelphia Zoo on a bus and because youre busy punching the kid in the next seat not get anything out of it. Hey, maybe we didnt dress like the models in todays ads. But, Ill tell you, you appreciated the clunky winter parkas when you were more likely to run into a flying saucer from Uranus than a weather cancellation. Class dismissed. Dont forget your pencils. While reflections on the past can be entertaining, they should not obscure the immense challenges of the present. Please help your Wyoming Valley brothers and sisters recover from the devastating flooding of hardly more than a week ago. When that task is done, support public measures that will prevent new disasters from overtaking us. Let us ensure that a century from now, the people of our community will look back on us and say, with awe and reverence, They were our best.

Sister Margaret and Leane give each other a high five in Sister Margarets office at Covenant House in Hollywood, Calif. Leane is now living in an apartment where she is learning the skills of living on her own far away from the streets she once called her home.
Unlikely friends
By ALEXANDRA ZAVIS Los Angeles Times
Leane was kicked out of home at 13 and spent years cycling between group homes and the streets. Three years ago, she was diagnosed with late-stage Hodgkins lymphoma. Her mother, she says, would have nothing to do with her. So Sister Margaret became the family she wished she had, ferrying her to hospital appointments and supporting her through months of grueling treatment. Both say the unlikely friendship has been a source of strength and inspiration. Now Leane is worried about some lumps on her neck. They are headed from a Hollywood homeless shelter to the City of Hope in Duarte, Calif., to find out if the cancer is back. An open mind Sister Margaret, 51, grew up on a farm in southwest Ireland. County Cork is known as the rebel county for its history of resistance to English Pro-
ister Margaret Farrell peers uncertainly over her shoulder as she tries to maneuver a lumbering minivan across several lanes of morning traffic on the Hollywood Freeway. I used to drive a cute little nuns car, she says, shaking her head. Her 23-year-old passenger, Leane, chuckles and leans out the window to guide her. They make a cheerful pair: the Irish nun and the transgender woman.
Through her work with juvenile offenders, she learned about Covenant House California, which operates a shelter and transitional housing for homeless teenagers and young adults in Hollywood. The nonprofit, part of an international network of shelters founded by a Franciscan priest in 1969, was looking for someone to tend to the spiritual needs of the residents, who come from all faiths. Ten years later, Im still there, Sister Margaret said. The first time Sister Margaret attended Mass at Church of the Blessed Sacrament in her adopted Hollywood parish, a mother told the congregation how she had come to accept her two gay sons. It was surprising to see it done so openly, Sister Margaret said. It was great. She was soon reminded that such acceptance is not universal. Gay and transgender

testant rule. But her Catholic parents insisted that their children be respectful of their Protestant neighbors. Whatever they were or werent, it was none of our business, she said. At 22, she joined the Religious Sisters of Charity, an order founded in Dublin in 1815. Im not a holy, pious per-
son, but I was always involved in social justice, she said. I guess thats what my big thing was, to see where I could fulfill this need, this urge I had inside me to do something for the poor. In 1998, the order sent her to California, where she lives in a Culver City apartment block with four other nuns.

MEET RICHARD MILLER
ichard Miller is the new executive director of the Osterhout Free Library in Wilkes-Barre. Miller, 38, is a graduate of Berwick High School and Bloomsburg University, where he earned degrees in elementary education, secondary social studies and history. He also earned a masters degree in library science from Connecticut State University. He and his wife, Kelly, have two children: Madeline 7, and Benjamin, 5. They live in Salem Township.
How did you make the shift from working in schools, as a teacher, to library science? I was a substitute teacher, and of course, the work was not full-time and the summers were off. So I looked for a part-time job, and I ended up working as the director of a very small rural public library in Columbia County. It wasnt even state-aided. It was sort of outside the system. We were open nine hours a week, and by the time I left, it was 21 hours. It was a nice little library, and I was the sole employee. I was the director, the staff and the maintenance man combined into one. But it was a great thing, because it let me get in from the ground up. And your next position was at the Berwick Public Library? Yes. I was sort of recruited, and I really enjoyed libraries, so I made the move. It was challenging. The library had been through five directors in six years, so I was number six. They were in need of some help and modernization, and I spent 1 1 years there. We ended up building a new building and changing our name to the McBride Memorial Library. Obviously, we had some very generous donors in the McBride family. It was quite an experience. How do you feel about taking the reins at the Osterhout? Im really happy to be here. It was kind of a crazy introduction, with the flooding. On my very first day, our server crashed and we lost our email and internet presence. The second day, it rained and rained and rained, and on the third day, we were packing up to vacate. On the fifth day, we were evacuated. But in some ways, the emergencies helped us get over the getting to know you phase and I certainly got to know the staff a lot quicker. I really enjoy it here, because while I think I did some good things in Berwick and had a lot of good people I worked with, the Luzerne County Library System has much bigger libraries and serves a lot more people. Theres a lot more opportunities to do things that I could never do in a smaller library. Youre surrounded by books all day.

How much Sponge Bob can you take? Better yet, how much Sponge Bob can your child take? Got your attention? You may have recently read about the study that warns that four year olds watching only nine minutes of Sponge Bob (probably could be any number of these delightful programs) can cause short-term attention and learning problems. Child development specialist Dr. Dimitri Christakis shares, What kids watch matters, its not just how much they watch.

Please understand I have nothing personal against Sponge Bob. Some of my best friends are sponges. Studies come and go. Some withstand the test of time, some dont. As far as attention span and Sponge Bob where was I? Oh, I have no oar in this water. What did cross my mind was the fact that so many children imbibe multiple hours of television programming every week. In those programs they are learning about life and its values. Probably many of those values are worthy. But, to what degree should Sponge Bob inculcate right and wrong, beauty and truth to your children? As parents, we all have an awesome responsibility in instilling uplifting and inspiring values in our children. They are hungry for information and guidance as they develop from toddlers to adults. As of yet you have not spent nine minutes reading this, so I trust I still have your attention. Allow me to suggest that beyond the television programming there is a medium worthy of both your and your childrens attention; the church! Here is a partial list of study results regarding children and regular church attendance: Increase the average life expectancy of your children by 8 years Significantly reduce your childs use and risk from Alcohol, Tobacco and Drugs Dramatically lower the risk of suicide Help them rebound from depression 70% faster dramatically Reduce their risk for committing a crime Improve their attitude at school and increase their school participation Improve their odds for a very happy life Provide them with a life-long moral compass The writer of Proverbs knew what he was talking about. Children need wise and meaningful guidance. Jesus knew what the children needed; love, support, security, values, and a vision for their lives. Transport your child from Sponge Bob, to a place where he or she can learn of Jesus and a way of life that will span a lifetime! They can see Sponge Bob on a rerun, if you remember. EVENTS: Rally Day today following 10:00 a.m. worship. Enjoy food, ice cream sundaes and fellowship, under the tent, and watch the children bounce with joy and laughter in the Moonwalk. First Presbyterian Church is hosting the Wyoming Valley 911 Tenth Anniversary Service. Rescheduled from September 11 to this evening at 6:00 p.m. The community is invited. Representatives from police, fire and rescue services, local and state government officials, and religious leaders will join with members of our community to remember and to express gratitude. The Wyoming Seminary Madrigal Singers will inspire us with their music. Bring your children and invite neighbors to this service of memorial and gratitude.

wish I was better at it. Id love to have a house just to practice on, not the one I live in. Music? Depends on the mood. I like just about everything. I listen to the 80s channel on XM when Im driving. Also some country music. If I want quiet, I might have classical on. And the Rat Pack. For some reason, my daughter always responded to the voice of Frank Sinatra, so my kids know Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin. They really like it. Do you follow sports? I like college football. The game seems more pure and the games move a little better. And being in Pennsylvania, of course I like Penn State. Favorite city? Philadelphia. Favorite vacation spot? I like to visit and explore historical places like Gettysburg or Fredericksburg. Lately, its amusement parks with the kids ... Sesame Place, Great Adventure and all of that stuff. Favorite food? Chicken. Always in the fridge? Yogurt. First car? 1981 Black Ford Fairmont that my grandfather gave

Which is your favorite? The one that impacted me the most was probably All Is Quiet on the Western Front. Its somewhat more of a guys book, because it deals with war and its violent, but it also deals with the mundane issues. Its really a well-written, thoughtful book, and it had a lasting impact. What do you do to relax? With two small children, I pretty much do whatever they want me to do. We read a lot, we play games together and spend a lot of time outdoors. We go to amusement parks, take them on trips and we like to spend a lot of time exploring places like fish hatcheries and duck ponds. We try to keep them amused and active, and hopefully learning. What about you? Everybody needs some solo time. I like to spend a lot of time outside. I enjoy doing things in the yard, like gardening. And I kind of dabble with home improvement. But I always
me. Favorite movie? Im not a big sci-fi fan, but I still stop whenever Star Wars is on. Ive watched that since my childhood. Favorite TV show? I dont have much time for it these days, but I like The Office. The show I always used to make time for was Monk. And I still like Seinfeld. Proudest professional moment? As a library director, definitely the day we opened the new library. I was sort of the CEO of the capital campaign, so I was the public image of the library in the Berwick area. And we built that new building. It was a great moment for the town and for the area, and I had a lot of personal time invested in that. And I do have some other memories. One that stands out is helping a woman get online. She had tears in her eyes, because she was trying to send her grandson an email, and he was in the Army, serving in Iraq. And she had no idea how to do it. It was really touching, and was sort of a reminder of why were here and what we do. Were here to help people.

When she doesnt have medical appointments, she likes to accompany Sister Margaret on her rounds to collect donations for Covenant House and go with her to church on Sundays. She recently moved from Covenent House into an apartment subsidized by the shelter and is planning to study for the high school equivalency exam. She thinks she might become a nurse. Id like to help other people who are sick, she says. Because I know how much it means to me and how it makes me feel to know that you have someone taking care of you. In the van, Leanes face brightens as they pull into City of Hope. She feels at home here, she says. Sister Margaret points out the flower beds, which are bursting with color. Remember, we sat in the gardens sometimes, she says. And read our gossip magazines, Leane adds. Inside, her oncologist, Dr. Joseph Alvarnas, checks the lumps on her neck. These feel like salivary glands to me. These dont feel like lymph nodes, he tells her. Together, they go over her latest scans. We dont see any big tumor masses that we would worry about, Alvarnas says. Im very happy. Leane and Sister Margaret exchange high fives. We did a great job, girl, Leane says. Yes, girl! Sister Margaret replies.

Together, they prepared Leanes final directives. In my last hour, I asked for someone to please hold my hand, Leane said. And if some godly music was available, I would like some godly prayer music to be played. Leane was desperate to see her mother. Sister Margaret got ahold of her stepfather by phone and explained the gravity of the situation. He told her Leanes mother wasnt interested. It was so tragic, Sister Margaret said. Shes a human being. It doesnt matter what she is or isnt. Thats why I took her on as my project. Moving on Leane has shelves full of wigs, makeup and fancy shoes. But since the stem-cell transplant in December, she rarely bothers with them. They are relics of a life she is determined to put behind her. These days shed rather be in sweat pants and sneakers, with perhaps a pair of stud earrings to add a little sparkle. I have learned to be comfortable in my own skin, she says. I know that Im a woman in my heart and in my mind. So it doesnt really matter how I dress. Leane returns to City of Hope regularly for tests and has been hospitalized several times with infections and other complications.

State-ranked Cougars power past Crusaders

By DAVE ROSENGRANT drosengrant@timesleader.com
DALLAS Like last years loss, Berwick aided a Dallas scoring drive Saturday afternoon with a turnover. The Mountaineers needed no assistance thereafter, dominating Berwick on the way to a 53-20 victory in a Wyoming Valley Conference Division 3A football game. Junior quarterback Ryan Zapoticky led a Dallas offense that piled up 498 yards. The first-year starter was 10of-13 for 131 yards and two touchdowns and ran for 101 more and three scores.

coach Ciro Cinti some good things in its second game in five days. I had a good feeling about the week to be honest with HE WALKED you because I thought we FROM the field were more focused because hanging his we didnt have a lot of downhead, which was time, Cinti said. I thought a curious sight we were prepared well but for a kid who did thats a quality team. We had nothing but some lapses and thats what make other happensAt least we came heads turn. and played hard. Because Corey Moore lifted Valley View (3-0) dominat- GARs hopes so high. Such optimism should have been low against a strong team like See COUGARS, Page 6C Lakeland, because the Grenadiers were playing without their dangerous double-threat quarterback Darrell Crawford. He was injured during Mondays victory over Old Forge, forcing GAR to hand the keys to its lightning-fast offense to a kid who never started a high school game before. All Moore did was hit the ignition and shift the Grenadiers into high gear. I tried to do what I could do, Moore said. Could anyone have done much more? His first play as a high school starter was a dart between two defenders that his wide receiver Shaliek Powell took for a 67-yard touchdown. And there was a lot Moore to come. Anything but shaky By the time he was finished Friday, the junior threw for a whopping 308 yards and four touchdowns while completing more than half of his 28 passes. The last time he started a game was two years ago in ninth grade (football), GAR coach Paul Wiedlich said. We really only had two days to prepare. We thought hed be a little shaky at times. Moore nearly shook up the whole game. No, he didnt lead the Grenadiers to victory over Lakeland. But he wasnt to blame for GARs 34-31 defeat. The 52-yard touchdown bomb Moore threw to Lucas Benton and his ensuing conversion pass that pulled GAR within three midway through the fourth quarter spoke as much to his resiliency as his ability. Thats because true leaders never give in or give up, even when the game seems to be slipping away. And with his eye-opening performance, Moore may have slipped himself into GARs future plans this season. Itll still be Crawfords show when he returns. But the Grenadiers may be tempted to get a little more of Moore. Who knows? He did a great job. Now we have a two-headed monster attack, Wiedlich beamed. Were going to evaluate everybody. It didnt take Moore long to asses his own damage. He suffered a torn ACL in December, and tried his darndest to get back to the football field by August. He worked his tail off rehabbing it, Wiedlich said. All for the chance to go through exhausting double-sessions of preseason practice in the sweltering heat. All the while knowing there was a very good chance he wouldnt play this season, because Crawford is the Wyoming Valley Conference version of Michael Vick as a passer and a runner. All because Moore wanted to be there for his team, on the slim chance the Grenadiers might need him. When they did, he gave them a real chance. Moore was asked after the game if he ever dreamed about putting together a 300-yard, four-touchdown passing day in his debut as a high school starter. I dreamed, he said solemnly, to win the game. That vision didnt quite come into focus for him. But its clear now in an emergency, GAR has a chance.

The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the league has not announced any of the moves. North Carolina State Chancellor Randy Woodson said he expects the league to make an announcement Sunday or Monday, but would not confirm the letters of application from Pitt and Syracuse. The great thing is that the conference is strong and committed to a unanimous commitment to staying together, Woodson said. And to the extent that this is kind of a dramatic shift in conferences, were trying to be proactive and stay strong. The Big Easts exit fee is $5 million, though schools wanting to leave must provide 27 months notice. A jump by Pittsburgh and Syracuse could lead to another dramatic shuffle in college athletics.

PSUs 70 years of topping Temple nearly ends

By DEREK LEVARSE dlevarse@timesleader.com
PHILADELPHIA Its fitting that this one would be settled by a disaster of a play. Penn States 14-10 win over Temple on Saturday at Lincoln Financial Field came down to recovering a fumbled snap on a day full of bizarre situations. A series of decisions that Penn State coaches called gut feelings -- others might call it indigestion -- had led the Nittany Lions to this.
Minutes away from their first lost to Temple in 70 years, the Lions: Had so little faith in their two kickers, having already missed three field goals on the day, that they passed up a 40-yard attempt to tie the game, instead going for it on fourth-and-2. Converted that fourth-and-2 on a Rob Bolden slant to Derek Moye, only to stall at the Owls 4-yard line. Never got off a fullback dive call for Michael Zordich on third-and-2 from the 4. The center exchange between Matt
Stankiewitch and Bolden hit the turf. Were rescued when Zordich fell on the loose ball for a gain of 1. Sent out Evan Lewis for a 20-yard game-tying field goal attempt on fourthand-1, only to ice him with a timeout a moment later. Abruptly reversed field and decided to go for it, handing it off to Brandon Beachum, who pounded up the middle for a first down at the 1.

Tight end Szczerba plays on despite heavy heart

By DEREK LEVARSE dlevarse@timesleader.com
PHILADELPHIA -- Penn State senior tight end Andrew Szczerba received terrible news before leaving with the team for Philadelphia on Friday. His uncle Joe Szczerba, a sergeant with the New Castle County (Del.) police, was fatally stabbed after a foot chase in the early morning hours Friday, according to The News Journal in Wilmington, Del. According to the report, Joe Szczerba was responding to a call for a disorderly person and was stabbed while attempting to arrest the suspect. An officer of 18 years, Szczerba, 44, played football at Salesianum High School in Wilmington, as did his nephew Andrew. Andrew Szczerba made the trip with the team on Friday and started for the Lions. He was flagged for a false start on the teams first play from scrimmage. He finished with two catches for 13 yards.

FIRST QUARTER TU -- Bernard Pierce 2-yard run (Brandon McManus kick), 6:54. Drive: 8 plays, 82 yards, 4:05. Comment: A sloppy, sloppy start for the Nittany Lions sees Temple take advantage of a blown coverage and a few big penalties to strike first. Stephon Morris has a receiver get well behind him on third-and-7 for a gain of 33. Then Chaz Powell is beaten in the end zone, committing pass interference to prevent a chance at a touchdown. Michael Mauti gets flagged for a face mask to put the Owls inside the 5-yard line where Pierce picks up his third career touchdown against the Lions. TEMPLE 7, PENN STATE 0. SECOND QUARTER PSU -- Silas Redd 17-yard run (Evan Lewis kick), 4:57. Drive: 7 plays, 50 yards, 3:13. Comment: Matt McGloin takes over later in this one than the previous two games but gets good field position to work with at the 50. McGloin completed a key thirdand-5 to Justin Brown and the Lions get a boost from a face mask call against the Owls. That sets up Redd who creates space and cuts to freedom off right tackle, outrunning the defense to the end zone to knot things up. TU 7, PSU 7.TU -- McManus 40-yard field goal, 0:37. Drive: 8 plays, 39 yards, 4:12. Comment: With the Owls offense sputtering since the big first drive, Temple coach Steve Addazio elects for a change of pace and inserts Chester Stewart in at quarterback. The playbook changes dramatically as Stewart takes off on a few option keepers. That keeps the chains moving for a bit until the Lions clamp down and drop Stewart for a loss on third down. McManus comes on and hits his longest field goal of the season to quickly put the Owls back on top. TU 10, PSU 7. FOURTH QUARTER PSU -- Michael Zordich 1-yard run (Lewis kick), 2:42. Drive: 12 plays, 44 yards, 6:04. Comment: A dreadful game of offensive football (very offensive) finally ends with Temple inexplicably throwing the ball while sitting on a lead. Michael Mauti comes up with the interception of Mike Gerardi to set the Lions up at the Owls 44. Comedy ensues. Having missed three field goals already, Penn State twice forgoes a field goal on fourth down, including a fourth-and-1 from the 3-yard line after a fumbled snap on third down. After initially deciding to kick a 20-yard field goal for the tie, the Lions called timeout and sent the offense back out with Brandon Beachum gaining 2 yards on fourth-and-1. Zordich gets the call and finishes off the Owls with a goal-line plunge for the second straight season. PSU 14, TU 10. PLAY OF THE GAME There were a couple of close calls on offense at the end, but the defense certainly deserves this honor. Give it to junior linebacker Michael Mauti, who helped will the team to victory. His first career interception came on an excellent diving effort on a Mike Gerardi pass at the Owls 44 with 8:46 left in the game. Mauti, who got his bell rung earlier in the game had to miss a series to get concussion tests on the sideline before re-entering and making the big difference. DAY TO REMEMBER Not just Mauti, but the Lions defense as a whole came out with heads held high. Standout Temple RB Bernard Pierce had just 50 yards on 17 carries and lost a fumble against a muchimproved front seven. DAY TO FORGET The 57,323 who attended -- announced as Temples third-highest home crowd in program history -- saw a close game but a very, very ugly one. Offensive coaches on both sidelines traded off making puzzling decisions rotating between two quarterbacks apiece. Temple head coach Steve Addazio and offensive coordinator Scot Loeffler are going to be second-guessing themselves all week for continuing to put the ball in the air up 10-7 in the fourth.
Finally scored the winning touchdown on the next play when Zordich plunged across the goal line with 2:42 to play. Though Zordich will be remembered for the score, it was his quick reaction on the fumbled snap two plays earlier that saved Penn State from one of its more embarrassing losses in recent history. I was supposed to get the ball there, so when that ball just dropped, I jumped right into the pile, Zordich said. Thankfully it bounced right in front of me and I was able to land on it. There was a couple Temple guys there, a couple Penn State guys there, but I was pretty much the first one in that area. Kind of a lucky play, really. The Penn State defense tried its hardest to ensure it wouldnt come down to luck. After talking about making big plays all week long, the Lions (2-1) forced three turnovers in the second half to give the team every possible chance to win. Glad we came up with them today, a relieved defensive coordinator Tom Bradley said afterward. We hung in there, we hustled. Tailbacks Bernard Pierce of Temple and Silas Redd of Penn State traded rushing scores in the first half and Temple added a 40-yard Brandon McManus field goal to take a 10-7 lead into the locker room. From there, Sean Stanley forced a Pierce fumble that Nick Sukay recovered at the Penn State 48. The offense handed it right back on the next play when Bolden telegraphed a pass to Moye that was picked off by the Owls Kee-ayre Griffin. In the fourth quarter, senior corner Chaz Powell came up with his first career interception, returning it 26 yards to the Temple 26. The offense went threeand-out and watched Lewis hammer a 36-yard field goal attempt solidly off the right upright. Undeterred, linebacker Michael Mauti also came up with his first career pick, diving in front of a pass at the Temple 44 to give the offense the ball back once again with 8:46 left in the game. We could feel it, getting into the second quarter, the third quarter, that we were going to need to make a play (on defense to win the game), Mauti said. We knew we had to respond. We cant hang our heads and say, Man, (the offense) needs to pick it up. All we can do is get the ball back to the offense. And that almost wasnt enough. It took12 plays and two fourthdown conversions after Mautis interception, but the offense finally rewarded the defense with a touchdown. Penn State continued to rotate both Bolden (9-of-17, 92 yards, 1 interception) and Matt McGloin (13-of-19, 124 yards) throughout the game. That rotation even extended into the fourth quarter. McGloin, who was under cen-

Sooners claim win over Noles

No. 11 Nebraska 51, Washington 38 LINCOLN, Neb. Taylor Martinez threw for two touchdowns and ran for a third to lead the Cornhuskers.

Ohio State quarterbacks Joe Bauserman and Braxton Miller combined to complete 4 of 17 passes. The Buckeyes simply seemed to give up on the game in the final minutes, not even bothering to try and stop the clock despite having three timeouts with Miami driving in the final minutes with a 17-6 lead. No. 18 West Virginia 37, Maryland 31 COLLEGE PARK, Md. Geno Smith threw for a careerhigh 388 yards, and the Mountaineers (3-0) withstood a furious comeback. After WVU let a 24-point lead dwindle to 34-31 with 10:29 remaining, Smith directed a 14-play, 65-yard drive that produced a field goal with 4:42 left. The Terrapins (1-1) then moved to the West Virginia 35 before Eain Smith intercepted a Danny OBrien pass with 1:13 remaining to saddle coach Randy Edsall with his first defeat at Maryland.

Michigan States Kirk Cousins, who had 11 straight completions at one juncture of the second half, was 34-for-53 for 329 yards but he was intercepted at the Notre Dame 6 with just under four minutes left by Blanton, who returned it 82 yards to the 12. The Spartans had just recovered a fumbled punt by Notre Dames John Goodman at the Irish 21 and were ready to set the stage for another frantic finish between the rivals.

to go to the air and play catch up. Notre Dame quarterback Tommy Rees overcame a first-half fumble and interception and finished 18 of 26 for 161 yards. Notre Dame pushed the lead out quickly the third quarter when Rees hit Michael Floyd on a 22-yard pass and then lofted a perfect 26-yarder to TJ Jones for a touchdown the Irish were penalized on the ensuing kickoff for unsportsmanlike conduct after Jones made a hand signal following his catch. Woods 6-yard TD run capping a 92-yard drive that featured a 33yard pass from Rees to Floyd and another of 16 to Tyler Eifert helped the Irish to a 21-10 lead. Cousins came right back after a 42-yard kickoff return by Nick Hill gave the Spartans good field position. His 21-yard pass to Todd Anderson and an 11-yarder to Cunningham gave the Spartans a first down at the Irish 8. But after the drive stalled, MSU lined up for a field goal, only to have their attempt at trickery turned away. After Notre Dame took an early 7-0 lead on a Wood TD run, the teams traded turnovers twice. Atkinson the son of the former NFL star defensive back took a kickoff, broke to the sideline and sprinted in for the touchdown. It was Notre Dames first kickoff return for a TD by a freshman since Raghib Ismail returned two against Rice in 1988. North Carolina athletic director Dick Baddour said the ACC created a committee last year of athletic directors, university presidents and faculty athletic representatives to examine possible scenarios of both expansion and defections. Baddour, one of the four athletic directors on the committee, wouldnt reveal specifics of those discussions nor comment specifically on Syracuse and Pittsburgh. If you think about this nationally, its obvious that the world is turning upside down and you want the ACC ... to be in a position where we are strong in all areas, that all of our sports are strong, that our television packages are strong as well, Baddour said shortly before kickoff of the Virginia-North Carolina game. Speaking on a pregame radio show, Virginia Tech athletic director Jim Weaver said: We want to move forward and be the best we can be, and thats what were going to do. The New York Times first reported news of the talks involving the ACC on Friday.

in doubt. The board of regents at Oklahoma and Texas are meeting Monday to discuss the possibility of the universities leaving that conference. Big East spokesman John Paquette declined to comment on the possible defections. Pittsburgh spokesman E.J. Borghetti said athletic director Steve Pederson also wouldnt comment. Syracuse AD Daryl Gross also declined comment. If the move goes forward, Pittsburgh and Syracuse would become the fourth and fifth schools to leave the Big East for the ACC in the past decade. Virginia Tech and Miami joined in 2004, and Boston College followed a year later as the ACCs 12th member. Syracuse is a founding member of the Big East, and Pittsburgh joined the league in 1982. The ACC official said their letters of application were for full membership.

Susquehanna stifles Nanticokes Wing-T gameplan

Sabers hold Trojans to just seven points, a kickoff return for a TD in victory.
By PAUL SOKOLOSKI psokoloski@timesleader.com
SUSQUEHANNA TWP. A special teams sophomore named Pat Hempel took the second-half kickoff all the way down the field and into the end zone, giving the Nanticoke Area Trojans sudden, new hope. Susquehanna quickly squashed it. Cooper Quick caught a 16-yard touchdown pass and Jesse Pruitt sealed the victory with a 46-yard
touchdown burst in the second half as the Sabers smothered Nanticoke Area and its tricky Wing-T offense, 26-7. We had a great week of practice, Susquehanna coach Richard Bagnell said. My defensive coordinator (Carl Zukus) put together a gameplan for the Wing-T. We shut their offense down, got them out of their gameplan. That 84-yard touchdown return by Hempel, who ran untouched through the middle of the field and into the end zone, provided the Trojans with their only points. But it also provided them with a little life, cutting Susquehannas lead to 12-7 with almost two full
quarters to play. We work on special teams every day at practice, Nanticoke Area coach Ron Bruza said. The sudden score also gave the Sabers reason to worry. Little bit, Bagnell said. That put them right back in the ballgame. When its 12-7 early in the second half, its anybodys ballgame. But the Sabers never allowed themselves to sweat. Thomas Maby intercepted a pass late in the third quarter and Quick cashed it in by working free in the end zone for a 16-yard touchdown catch on fourth down to put Susquehanna up 20-7. And after a fourth-down sack
thwarted Nanticoke Areas lengthy, 51-yard drive that reached Susquehannas 15-yard line, Pruitt broke free for his clinching touchdown run. We had some breaks that didnt go our way, said Bruza, whose team came off a bye week. We hadnt played in two weeks. I dont think playing Monday was a hardship to them (the Sabers). They got two games in six days. You get 14 days off, what could you do? You can only get so much competition within your team. Then the Trojans fought to provide competition to the other team. Greg Price scored on an eightyard screen pass and on a three-
yard touchdown run within a 4:13 span of the second quarter, giving the Sabers a 12-0 lead at halftime. Meanwhile, Nanticoke Area was held to a mere 38 rushing yards and 22 passing during the first half. About the only thing Susquehanna couldnt execute was points after touchdowns. The Sabers missed two extra points and failed on a two-point conversion attempt. Our extra point team is awful, Bagnell said. I dont know what were going to do. We cant find anyone who can make kicks.

Sluggish start stymies Royals

Holy Cross scores the games first 28 points on its way to a four-touchdown victory
By JOHN ERZAR jerar@timesleader.com
WILKES-BARRE If Holy Redeemer can play like it did in the second half Saturday night, then it has a chance to be a competitive team. Unfortunately for the Royals, those first two quarters once again proved costly. Holy Cross three-pronged rushing attack was too much for Redeemer as it built a 34-point halftime lead on the way to a 49-24 non-conference football victory. Three straight games weve come out of the gate pretty slow, Redeemer first-year coach Joe Ostrowski said. The first two quarters have been our Achilles the last couple of weeks, including tonight. And then weve played pretty sound football through the third and fourth quarters in three games. Holy Cross (2-1) ran for 286 yards and six touchdowns in the first half. Quarterback/tailback Rob Heyen was the biggest problem as he finished the night with 242 yards and two touchdowns on
26 rushes. Fullback Joe Merli, who had 105 yards and four touchdowns, was also troublesome. So was tailback Tyler Hinkley, who chipped in 49 yards. Holy Cross up front has good size, Ostrowski said. They run the ball well and to prepare for three solid players is tough. The Holy Cross running game, though, was corralled for the most part in the second half despite the trio playing most of the final two quarters. The Crusaders managed just 90 yards. Meanwhile, Redeemer quarterback David Gawlas put some energy into the offense. The Royals (0-3) went on a 60-yard scoring drive on their first possession of the third quarter, with Gawlas connecting on passes of 13 yards to Tom Cosgrove and 34 yards to Matt Crofchick. Gawlas then capped it with an 11-yard TD run. Redeemer also received some much-needed running from the tailback spot as sophomore backup Vince Villani carried the load on the final scoring drive. Villani finished with 92 yards on seven carries. Gawlas went over 100 yards for the second time this season, rushing for 112 on 18 rushes. The offense, though, suffered a setback when receiver Eric Kerr was
Tunkhannocks Luke Seaburg throws for 141 yards and a score in loss to the Comets.

Special teams falter as Lack. Trail routs Meyers

By TOM ROBINSON For the Times Leader
TUNNEL HILL Forcing Meyers to punt or at least attempt to punt was only the beginning for Lackawanna Trail in the first half Saturday night. Once the Mohawks went into punt formation, the Lions went to work on making the plays that turned the non-league football game into a rout. The Lions blocked two punts and tackled the punter for a loss another time while opening a 28point lead in the second quarter on the way to a 55-7 victory. Lackawanna Trail returned a punt for a score and partially blocked another during the second half while assuring that the final 11:42 would be played under the Mercy Rule.
We tried to change it up a little bit and put a rugby-style punt in, first-year Meyers coach Corry Hanson said. Our guys didnt understand the concept. I think we gave up three or four touchdowns just off punts. Zach Goodrich blocked one punt and recovered another in the end zone during the second quarter. I think at times last weekend against Lake-Lehman, we didnt hustle, Lackawanna Trail coach Steve Jervis said. We really wanted to hustle more. I think that showed up in the special teams. The Lions improved to 3-0 and sent the Mohawks to 0-3 by controlling all phases of the game, but the special teams is where they had the biggest advantage somebody, Berwick coach Gary Campbell said. We didnt do it. We were thoroughly embarrassed. Berwick (1-2) did score three touchdowns, but all were cosmetic in nature. By the time Matt Cashman returned a kickoff 81 yards for a score, Dallas (3-0) had built a 38-0 third-quarter lead. That defensive effort is what really pleased Jackson. Berwick running back Jeremy Freeman entered off a career-high 229 yards rushing against North Pocono on Monday. He finished with eight carries for 20 yards, his lowest regular-season game total since becoming a starter last year. Quarterback Jared Pierce was 10-of-19 for 102 yards, but was never in sync with his receiving corps that had more than its share of drops. By halftime, Dallas had outgained the Dawgs 304-78. Im thrilled with the defense. Its about time, its about time, Jackson said. Weve been wait-
and made the plays to break the contest open. Meyers answered with a defensive score of its own after falling behind by 28. Dakota Owen intercepted a screen pass and returned it 21 yards for a touchdown. Cal Lisman kicked the extra point to make it 28-7 with 1:30 left in the half. In addition to its special teams and defensive contributions, Lackawanna Trail got touchdown runs from four players. Meyers gave up 100 points while losing twice in six days. The Mohawks have been outscored, 137-21, on the season. Right now, these teams want it more than us, Hanson said. Until that changes, were not going to win football games.

CLARKS SUMMIT For Abington Heights, the last week seemed as if it lasted forever. After being blown out by Wyoming Valley West, the Comets responded in a big way. They took control of the game early and never gave it back as they defeated Tunkhannock 35-6 on Saturday afternoon. The Comets (2-1) used a combination of a successful air attack and an equally successful ground game to defeat the Tigers (0-3). It didnt take the Comets long to get on the scoreboard. With 9:29 remaining in the opening quarter, Quinn Karam found his way into the end zone for a 3-yard touchdown. Brandon Pacyna added the PAT and the Comets led 7-0. Sean Rock then extended the Comets lead to 14-0 with a 39yard jaunt. Pacyna split the uprights with the PAT with just 23 seconds remaining in the first quarter. However, the Comets offense was just heating up. The end zone became a familiar place for Karam as he scored his second rushing touchdown of the game with 9:20 remaining in the first half. He broke loose of Tunkhannock defenders and traveled 15 yards into the end zone. After the rushing attack put on its show, the passing game took off in the third quarter. Dante Pasqualichio found soph-
omore J.C. Show in the end zone for a 35-yard touchdown with 8:55 showing on the clock. Pasqualichio then put the game into the mercy rule by completing an 11-yard touchdown pass to Jerry Langan. Tunkhannock got on the board with 5:47 remaining in the game. Luke Seaberg threw a perfect pass, hitting Josh Colley in stride for a 65-yard touchdown. The extra point was blocked by a host of Comet defenders who busted across the line of scrimmage. Pasqualichio completed15 passes for 236 yards and two touchdowns. Karam had two touchdowns on five carries. He accumulated 25 yards in the game. Josh Robinson led the Tunkhannock ground attack with 12 rushes for 51 yards.

DALLAS
Ryan has been a student of our program, Dallas coach Ted Jackson said. Hes been at my football camps since probably he was 10 years old. He was a great junior high quarterback for us and a great backup last year. He was set back by his (elbow) injury, but hes getting better every week. He missed 8-10 weeks in the summer of not being able to throw the ball. Running back Jim Roccograndi was equally impressive, rushing for 170 yards and three touchdowns on 14 carries, pushing his season rushing total to 550 yards. Receiver Jason Simonovich caught six passes for 78 yards and wideout Shane Dunn added two receptions and seemed to be everywhere on the field on defense. Plain and simple, the game comes down to you have to stop

ed the line of the scrimmage early, amassing 258 of its 372 yards rushing in the first half. In that time, the Cougars defensive line only gave up 1 yard on the ground to the Crusaders on 13 carries, and didnt give up a first down until midway through the second quarter as they opened a 21-0 lead after the first 24 minutes of play. The Cougars got on the board on their first possession when Tyler Phillips broke loose for a 51-yard score. Phillips (15 carries for 119 yards) scampered for a 47-yard TD dash on Valley Views third possession of the game as it went up 14-0 with 2:27 left in the first quarter. That was the worst the Crusaders (1-2) looked throughout the game. The defense tightened after that only allowing Phillips to run for 19 more yards in the contest. Coughlins defensive unit gave up just 14 more points the rest of the way and that was against Valley Views first team, which only left the game on its final drive. We have a lot of seniors so theyve been playing for three years, and its a senior-dominated team and theyre used to doing what weve been doing, Valley View coach George Howanitz said. They get off the ball low and theyve kind of done what weve coached them to do and its shown the last couple
weeks. Pat Jeffers added a pair of 7yard rushing scores for the Cougars, one in the second quarter and another in the third. Coughlins Joe Parsnik had a decent game all over the field. He pulled out a 40-yard kickoff return to begin the game. On offense, he passed for 53 yards and carried the ball nine times for just 4 yards against the vaunted Cougar defense. On the defensive side of the ball, the senior swarmed to the ball recovering a fumble and making more than 10 tackles. The kid is just a great kid, Cinti said about Parsnik. I cant say enough good things about the kid; it wouldnt do him justice because thats the kind of kid he is. Hes unselfish and hell do anything to win.

ATLANTA Matt Ryan is confident and self-assured, not the least bit threatened by the quarterback who came before him. Yet he knows how this works. When Michael Vick returns to Atlanta for the first time as Philadelphias starter, there will be no escaping the comparisons between No. 7 and Matty Ice.

If he 31-17, Oct. 17, leads the Ea2010 gles (1-0) to another victory Sunday night, some of those same fans will undoubtedly be muttering that their team shouldve stuck with the guy who went to prison for nearly two years. None of which is fair to Ryan, of course. I dont worry about it, he insisted. Thats the nature of the NFL right now. In the age were in and the media-driven sport were in, youre going to answer those questions. Its part of the deal. Whose house? Even Vick gave a shout-out to the guy who filled his shoes. When someone asked if he planned to declare the Georgia Dome my house as Deion Sanders did in the 1990s after returning to Atlanta in a visiting uniform the Eagles quarterback quickly shot down the idea. Thats not my house, Vick said. Thats Matt Ryans house. Im just a visitor. Ryan has every right to be proud of his resume in Atlanta. Hes led the Falcons (0-1) to three straight winning seasons, something no other quarterback not even Vick pulled off. Heck, theyd never even strung together two in a row before he arrived in 2008. The Falcons have gone to the playoffs twice with Ryan at the helm, and theyre coming off a 13-3 season and NFC South championship. The only thing hes missing is a postseason victory, and theres still plenty of time

for that. Hes one of the young starters in this league, and hes going to be one of the great ones, Vick said. He just has to keep working as he continues to get better. Im excited for him. But Vick still casts a long shadow in these parts. Love him or hate him, theres no doubt he made Atlanta a relevant NFL franchise. Great memories Most everyone has their favorite memory, whether it was the Vick-led Falcons becoming the first visiting team ever to win a playoff game at Lambeau Field, or maybe it was that year they made it all the way to the NFC championship game. Most everyone
remembers some improbable run the overtime touchdown in Minnesota, perhaps? or a throw no one else couldve made. Fair enough. Those were dazzling times. But this is Ryans team now, and hes doing just fine. Im going to get in his ear and Im going to tell him, Dont even listen to it, dont read about it. When they ask you a question, just say Im going to play ball, Falcons tight end Tony Gonzalez said. But you know what? I dont even have to say that to Matt. What I know of Matt, hes a poised guy. Hes not going to let that creep into his mind. Hes going to go out there play like he always does and make plays for us. Ryan certainly needs to make
more plays than he did in the season opener. He was sacked five times and had two of Atlantas three turnovers in an ugly 30-12 loss to the Chicago Bears. The Falcons also struggled to wrap up tackles, letting a couple of short throws turn into plays of more than 50 yards. Now, the Atlanta defense has to deal with Vick, who wasnt especially sharp in Philadelphias opener but still threw for 187 yards, ran for 98 more and tossed a couple of touchdown passes. Hes the best running quarterback ever to play the game, and his passing is very much improved, Falcons defensive tackle Corey Peters said. I think hes a top-five quarterback passing the ball as well.
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. Maurice Jones-Drew and Mark Sanchez had everyone talking the last time the Jacksonville Jaguars and New York Jets played each other. It was all about one guys kneeldown and the others near-meltdown on that November afternoon two years ago.

At the same time, fantasy is a fun thing, its a hobby for me. It doesnt pay the bills. So I have to take care of what pays the bills, you know? And, thats whatever it takes to win on the field, of course. The Jaguars (1-0) and Jets (1-0) will meet again for the first time since at MetLife Stadium on Sunday. Sanchezs postgame press conference that day raised lots of eyebrows when he pulled out a sheet of paper and read off a list of prepared remarks. It was a curious move that some called arrogant, while others thought it was just plain silly. He was a rookie then and believed he had cost his team a few victories with spotty play. With the Jets holding a late 22-21 lead in the teams last matchup, the Jaguars were driving down the field when New York coach Rex Ryan made the bold decision to allow the Jaguars to score. This way, Ryan thought, the Jets could get the ball back with about a minute left for a winning drive of their own. Instead, Jones-Drew took the handoff and went off left tackle and stunningly dropped to a knee at the 1. A few moments later, Josh Scobee kicked a 21-yard field goal as time expired.

SEATTLE at PITTSBURGH TV: 1 p.m., Fox (WOLF-56) LINE: Steelers by 1312 LAST MEETING: Steelers beat Seahawks 21-0, Oct. 7, 2007
PITTSBURGH The Pittsburgh Steelers insist they dont have a panic button. An erase button? Absolutely. The defending AFC champions see their baffling not to mention decisive 35-7 loss to rival Baltimore last week as something a little control/alt/ delete cant fix. I forgot about that game already, said quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. Good idea. The Steelers (0-1) havent started a season with consecutive losses during Roethlisbergers eight-year career. He has no
plans to start now heading into Sundays home opener against Seattle (0-1). Talking to (defensive coordinator Dick) LeBeau, we used our mulligan on the first tee and we got 17 more holes to birdie, Roethlisberger said. The Seahawks didnt implode for an entire game as the Steelers did. Instead, they saved it a 59second span in the fourth quarter, letting a comeback against

San Francisco evaporate as quickly as it took the 49ers Ted Ginn Jr. to return a kickoff and a punt for touchdowns. It was a sobering dose of real-
ity for the defending NFC West champions, who had hoped to solve their quarterback issues by bringing in Tarvaris Jackson. Instead, Jackson spent most of the
first week in his new gig trying to stay upright behind a shaky offensive line that allowed him to get sacked five times and harassed countless others. Now Jackson has to face a Pittsburgh defense eager to show the doubters the group of 30-somethings isnt as old or as slow as the Ravens made it look. Not exactly the best time for a young team trying to find its footing to visit Heinz Field. There is never a good time to play these guys, said Seattle coach Pete Carroll. Its always difficult. This week, perhaps, more than most. Coach Mike Tomlin expects his players to be angry after getting squashed by the Ravens, though safety Troy Polamalu who got involved in a dustup at the end of the game out of frustration isnt quite ready to promise vengeance.

RIVERA TIES MLB SAV E R ECORD WITH 601ST

TORONTO Mariano Rivera tied the major league saves record, earning the 601st of his career and matching Trevor Hoffman while preserving the New York Yankees 7-6 win over the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday. The 41-year-old Rivera was perfect in pitching the ninth inning for his 42nd save of the season. Rivera struck out Colby Rasmus looking to start the ninth, then retired Brett Lawrie on a broken-bat grounder to first. While some in the crowd of 39,288 headed for the exits, most stayed to watch as Rivera got Eric Thames on a routine fly to center.

CINCINNATI Yovani Gallardo struck out a careerhigh 13 and Ryan Braun hit his third home run in two nights to help the Milwaukee Brewers inch closer to a Central Division championship with a 10-1 win over the Cincinnati Reds on Saturday night. Yuniesky Betancourt also homered and Gallardo pulled off the rare feat of striking out four batters in one inning as the Brewers lowered their magic number to five with their fourth win in their last five games and St. Louiss loss at Philadelphia. Any combination of Milwaukee wins and Cardinal losses adding up to five gives the Brewers their first division championship since 1982, when they won the American League East. Gallardos previous singlegame strikeout high was 12,
which hed reached four times, including last Sunday. He threw 117 pitches, 75 of them strikes, in his six innings, giving up just two hits, one run, and two walks.

LW MacIntyre: Hes prepared to hurt you

Veteran winger knows his role, but hopes to add more than PIMs for Pens organization.
By TOM VENESKY tvenesky@timesleader.com
AMERICAN HOCKEY LEAGUE
Deaths have nothing to do with enforcer job

I go into a fight to hurt you. Im not going in there to play pattycake.

Steve MacIntyre Penguins left-winger
PITTSBURGH Last season, left wing Steve MacIntyre posted 93 penalty minutes in 34 games with the Edmonton Oilers a pretty modest total for an enforcer. But theres a good reason for the sub-100 penalty minute total. Its really not MacIntyres fault, after all when youre 6-5, 250-pounds with hands the size of cinder blocks, willing opponents arent easy to find. I go into a fight to hurt you. Im not going in there to play patty-cake, MacIntyre said after Saturdays practice. Its an approach that MacIntyre, 31, takes into every game, whether that will be with Pittsburgh or Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. But theres more than fighting to his game. MacIntyre understands that todays enforcer must be able to play and contribute in other aspects of the game as well. Become a well-rounded player, he said, and by doing so he can become an even more intimidating figure on the ice. I think intimidations 90 percent mental and 10 percent physical. Obviously, I want to be intimidating. But the way the game has changed I cant be one-dimensional, MacIntyre said. I have to execute in other parts of the game. After spending most of the last four seasons with the Oilers, MacIntyre said he decided to sign with the Pittsburgh organization in the offseason because of its successful track record. He wants to be part of a winner, he said, and this is the place to do it. Wherever they have me pegged (either Pitsburgh or Wilkes-Barre), Ill go down with my work boots and work hat and accomplish what I can do, MacIntyre said. Everybody knows I can fight and hit, but I just have to play a consistent game every night. If MacIntyre spends time with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton this season, finding willing opponents wont be as much of a problem as it is in the NHL. He spent parts of four seasons in the AHL and has developed a reputation as one of the toughest players in hockey. He knows players in the AHL will come looking for a matchup. When I was in the American League, a lot of guys were coming for me, MacIntyre said. They didnt want to, but they were coming. Ive been around for a while and I have a little bit of a reputation. If they can hang in there and do well, beat me, whatever, thats a feather in their hat. And its a feather that not many have earned when they square off against MacIntyre. I might have a couple screws loose, but I enjoy (fighting), he said. You get
nervous, just like in anything, but its the ultimate test of being a man. God gave me a talent, and Im going to go out there and doing the best I can with it.
PITTSBURGH Steve MacIntyre said the deaths of enforcers Derek Boogaard, Rick Rypien and Wade Belak over the summer were a shock but its wrong to link their role as fighters to the incidents. To the guys who fight, like myself, when you assume they all are like that, thats a tremendous insult, MacIntyre said. Its an awful thing what happened, and I think the NHL and the players association are doing the right thing to help guys out. But as far as putting a big blanket on it, its not right. During Saturdays scrimmage, Group B defeated Group A 5-1. The line of Tyler Kennedy-Evgeni Malkin-Steve Sullivan dominated the contest, combining for four goals and seven assists. For Group A, Brian
PENGUINS
NOTEBOOK
Strait assisted on a goal by James Neal to avoid being shut out. As expected, Sidney Crosby did practice Saturday but avoided contact drills. Dustin Jeffrey also skated and moved well on the ice. With a new contract already in place, Geoff Walker has brought a different ap-
proach to this seasons training camp. Now that he doesnt have to worry about landing a job with WilkesBarre/Scranton, Walker said he can focus all his energy on his game. Ive been in Pittsburgh since August training, so Im pretty comfortable with things and I just want to keep building, Walker said. And losing. One of Walkers goals in the summer was to come into camp leaner and quicker. He said he lost 10
pounds and reduced his body fat by two percent. I feel a lot faster out there and Im ready for a big season this year, he said. Walker spent some time on the ice with Malkin during Saturdays scrimmage, something he was well aware of. When youre out there with guys like that, Ill catch myself looking to get him the puck, even if he isnt open, Walker said. Thats something you have to watch. You need to stick to your game.

Kenseth on pole as Chase begins

Kevin Harvick has the worst qualifying run of all Cup contenders, placing 30th.
By JENNA FRYER AP Auto Racing Writer
JOLIET, Ill. Matt Kenseth will open the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship on the pole at Chicagoland Speedway. Kenseth had the fastest qualifying lap Saturday with a speed of 183.243 mph in his Roush Fenway Racing Ford. It easily held off Paul Menard, who turned a lap at 183.125 in a Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet, and Kurt Busch, who qualified third at 183.032 in a Penske Racing Dodge. Its just the sixth pole in 12 full seasons for Kenseth, and second this year. And with track position
so critical, it puts him in position for a strong run in the opening race of the 10-event Chase. My cars have just been fast and driving really good, Kenseth said. I have always tried really hard. I have probably done a little better job at not overdriving the car. That has been a fault of mine in qualifying in the past, overdriving and driving the corner too hard and messing up the rest of the corner. Back in the day when it was easier to pass it probably wasnt as important to us as it is today. Maybe I am a little better at it, but the main thing is the cars have been really fast. Busch, winner of the inaugural 2004 Chase, was pleased to qualify third. It was a great qualifying effort for us. We feel like getting off to a strong start in the Chase is important, and it starts with qualify-
ing, Busch said. Chase drivers took spots four through six, as Ryan Newman, Carl Edwards and Brad Keselowski kept Kenseth in sight. That is a fast lap for (Kenseth), noted Edwards of his RFR teammate. Non-Chase drivers Greg Biffle and Brian Vickers were seventh and eighth, and points co-leader Kyle Busch was ninth. His Joe Gibbs Racing teammate Joey Logano, who is not Chase eligible, rounded out the top 10. Five-time defending champion Jimmie Johnson qualified 12th, and Hendrick Motorsports teammate Dale Earnhardt Jr. 19th. Four-time champion Jeff Gordon was 23rd, Tony Stewart qualified 26th and Denny Hamlin was 27th. Kevin Harvick was the lowest qualifying Chase driver at 30th.

Wildlife affected by rising waters, too

Like humans, most animals headed for higher ground
Last weekends flooding displaced tens of thousands of people who had to evacuate their houses as the Susquehanna River rose to record levels. But they werent the only ones forced out of their homes. Wildlife that lived near, or even in, the river were also forced to get out as the flood waters rose, and that led to several unique sightings. Fish were spotted jumping in the floodwaters in West Pittston. Several people saw deer swimming through the flooded river, and a skunk was spotted paddling out of the water to dry land. Like us, most species of wildlife sought higher ground well before the river rose. Most of them survived. After all, floods on the Susquehanna River have occurred for centuries and wildlife has always persevered. Still, depending on the species and where it lives, wildlife deals with a flood in different ways. Considering the Susquehanna River crested to a record 42.66 feet in Wilkes-Barre last week, this was no ordinary flood. It was one that pushed many species to the limit. Heres a look at what wildlife did to survive and how they fared during last weeks flood: Fish The common perception is that fish get swept downriver when the floodwaters rage, but thats not entirely true. Geoff Smith is a Susquehanna River biologist for the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission. Later this month, hell be out on the river to study how certain species of fish fared with the flood. In the meantime, Smith suspects that most of the fish populations that inhabit the river made it through without a significant loss. They feel it coming and move to areas without current, Smith said. That includes flooded towns where they use such areas as a current break. Some species, such as carp and quillback, actually take advantage of the flooded backwaters to spawn. Others use the high water event to find new homes. Smith said its possible that species such as the flathead catfish, which is native to western Pennsylvania but has recently been expanding its range up the Susquehanna, to migrate that way. The floodwaters provide areas that they can use to bypass dams, Smith said. Theres some concern about it because we dont know how they will impact other fish populations. By seeking refuge from the current, most fish are able to avoid being swept down the river. The ones that could be more susceptible to the fast, deep current are the younger fish, Smith said. With the timing of this flood, its hard to tell how the younger fish were affected because they may be large enough to ride it out, or not, he said. Smaller baitfish could be impacted though. Well be monitoring this in the coming years to get a better idea. While the current presents one issue for fish, perhaps the bigger risk is the contaminated water itself. Raw sewage from treatment plants and petroleum chemicals from heating oil tanks and gas stations could have an impact on all fish species. Smith said the PFBC will be monitoring the situation closely. While fish survive a flood by simply getting out of the current, what happens when the floodwaters recede? Can they become stranded? Smith said its possible and does happen, but generally fish sense the water level falling and follow it back to the river. In most cases they make it back, he said. One side benefit of the flood is the new habitat it created for fish species. The newly formed piles of submerged debris can become havens for fish, Smith said. While fish utilize slow-moving water to survive a flood, others species seek the refuge of mud. Freshwater mussels that inhabit the river likely closed up their shells during the flood which meant they werent filtering water, and simply hunkered down in the mucky bottom. Smith said mussels are mobile but they could be at risk depending on how much sediment covers them and if they get swept downriver. As far as any significant impact to fish populations

Beaver survival a bright spot in rough week

ts rare that a bass tournament gets cancelled. When it does happen, severe thunderstorms or lightening are usually the cause. But a fishing tournament being cancelled by water? It happens. For the last three weeks, Bob Makaravage has tried to hold the championship round for his Wednesday night bass tournament at Harveys Lake. After completing a 10-week tournament season during the summer, the field was set, prize money was allotted and anglers eagerly anticipated the event. They tried to hold it on Aug. 31 but had to cancel due to Hurricane Irene. Makaravage tried again the next week, on Sept. 7, and again had to call things off due to the looming flood headed our way. And this past Wednesday the tournament was delayed again because so many anglers were busy recovering from flood damage. Storms, lightening and water three factors that can cancel a fishing tournament. The postponement of a bass tournament is minor compared to the impacts of last weeks flood. The water took a heavy toll on many residents throughout Luzerne County, as well as wildlife. But not everything in nature was dealt a blow. A relatively new beaver pond that I had been watching progress since last fall escaped the flood relatively unscathed. While we rely on levee systems to protect us from floodwater, the beavers at this pond made their own flood protection. And it worked. I visited the pond last Saturday expecting the beavers work to be washed away by a creek that was transformed into a raging river the previous three days. But I found just the opposite. The main dam at the bottom of the pond a structure stretching almost 50 feet and four feet high in spots, was intact and suffered little damage. The mass of mud and sticks held the creek at bay, and here and there the high water spilled over the top of the dam. Upstream the beavers had made three smaller dams above the pond. I noticed this last fall and wondered why. On Saturday, I got an answer, or at least what I believe to be a reason behind the smaller dams. Before the flood hit, each of the dams created a small pool that slowed the flow of the creek before it entered the pond. During the flood, with the creek running full blast, the dams lessened the force just enough to reduce the rush of water that couldve pounded the main dam into pieces. The smaller dams did take a hit, however. Portions were washed away and there was some scouring in the pools behind them. But the system worked. The pools acted as retention ponds similar to those that we build to hold stormwater, and the dams served as current breaks. And the main dam, which created the larger pond and provided a flooded sanctuary for the beaver lodge, held. Aiding the situation is the wetlands itself. Acres of marsh surround the pond, and much of the water that spilled through the first three dams harmlessly flooded into the thick grass and was basically held in place. If managed properly, water doesnt have to be the destructive force that it turned into last week. The beavers proved that floodwaters can be tamed and controlled with a little ingenuity and hard work.

This black rat snake was spotted escaping the flooded Susquehanna River in Wyoming County last Sunday. Snakes that inhabit the river survive floods by heading to higher ground or climbing trees.
in the river, Smith said he doesnt expect major losses but more will be known when he and other PFBC biologists begin surveying work later this month. Flood events have happened over the history of the river, and these species still persist, Smith said. Over time theyve proven that theyve got the means to make it by seeking out the refuge they need. Reptiles and Amphibians Less mobile than fish, some species of frogs, turtles and salamanders are vulnerable to being caught in the current and swept down the river. Even more at risk are the eggs and recently-hatched young. Rick Koval, a naturalist and a member of the Pennsylvania Reptile and Amphibian Technical Committee, said the Susquehanna River is a haven for many species of amphibians, including frogs and toads. During a high water event, frogs and toads do what most other wildlife does seek higher ground. I believe a lot of them survived by doing that, Koval said. The impact, he added, could lie with tadpoles that are emerging into adults. They can get washed down and perish, Koval said. The timing of the flood means its less of an impact than if it happened in the spring, when you have more egg masses and tadpoles. As far as turtles, the Susquehanna is home to several species, including the map turtle which spends the majority of its life in the river. Aside from seeking higher ground, Koval said turtles will shelter themselves behind large boulders to withstand the current. Like frogs, however, the concern lies with the eggs. They deposit their eggs in open, sandy areas along the bank and they were probably washed away, Koval said. The egg clusters of salamanders were also probably washed away. Several species use the vernal pools along the river to lay their eggs. Those pools are engulfed by the floodwater, Koval said, and the eggs are likely gone. Snakes likely made it through the flood in good shape because they are terrestrial, meaning they can maneuver well on land. Even the Northern watersnake and Eastern ribbon snake, which are mainly aquatic, can survive on dry land. And unlike frogs, turtles and salamanders, snakes have another means to survive a flood. They can climb trees, which they likely did, Koval said. Snakes probably suffered the least impact. A side benefit from the flood could be realized
next spring ponded areas that remain will become breeding grounds for amphibians. But in the meantime some species could suffer some long-term losses. The frogs, turtles and salamanders were probably impacted the most because of the loss of tadpoles and eggs, Koval said. Were going to have some losses. Mammals The river is also home to several furbearer species, such as beaver, mink and muskrat. Beaver and mink including their young, are very mobile and likely got out of the river area before the water started to rise, according to Pennsylvania Game Commission mammal section supervisor Matt Lovallo. As the water began to rise, beavers evacuated their lodges and bank dens for higher ground, he said. There may have been localized impacts with muskrats, however. Those with a late litter are more susceptible to the swift current and couldve been washed away, Lovallo said. Theres a common perception that the 1972 flood knocked back muskrat populations, but we havent documented that in harvest rates, Lovallo said. We will be watching the harvest this year, but I think the impacts will be localized and I dont expect a significant decline. Once again, the timing of the flood played a key role in the ability for several species to survive. Beavers and muskrats have time to return to the river and rebuild huts, lodges and bank dens in time for winter. If the flood hit in December, Lovallo said, beavers wouldve been dealt an impact because their winter food caches wouldve been washed away. Tim Conway, PGC spokesman for the Northeast Region, said his office hasnt received many calls regarding wildlife stranded or displaced by the flood. He acknowledged that a significant number of wildlife was displaced by the high water and there probably were some losses, but the impact wasnt major. These events have happened for generations and these animals know to get to higher ground, Conway said. With so many animals displaced from the flood, Conway said it wouldnt be uncommon to find them taking up refuge in urban areas and homes. Be aware when youre going through your house. Its always a possibility to find raccoons or opossums on an upper floor or in your attic, Conway said. If you do find wildlife in your home, Conway advised to leave an opening and it will likely leave as human activity picks up.

Defense wilts under Kirchon powers potent Monarchs challenge by Albright

Lions roll to 675 yards of offense, score nine TDs against Colonels.
By The Times Leader Staff
QB throws for career-best 320 yards, 3 TDs in second career start for Kings.
READING Wilkes always seems to have trouble when it plays at Albright. That was evident once again on Saturday as the Colonels allowed the second-most points in school history in a 65-26 loss to the Lions. It was the most point given up by the Colonels since Cortland State scored 67 in 1991 and the Colonels also gave up 675 total yards, including 545 through the air. The Colonels (0-2 overall, 0-1 MAC) took a 7-3 lead in the second quarter after a 55-yard touchdown pass from Alex George to Tim Bousson at the 13:29 mark. But Albright (3-0, 1-0) took a 17-7 lead scoring on consecutive drives. Wilkes got right back in it with another score, this time an 11-yard strike from George (16-26, 236 yards) to Todd Eagles (six catches, 63 yards) to trim the lead the 17-13, but after that Wilkes was held to just 13 points the rest of the way while the Lions poured on 48 more. Albright quarterbacks T.J. Luddy and Adam Galczynski had no problem cutting through the Wilkes secondary. Luddy was a perfect 7-for-7 for 142 yards and two scores, while Galczynski connected on 20 of 26 passes for 377 yards and three touchdowns. Lions receiver Scott Pillar had a huge game nabbing nine balls for 220 yards and a pair of touchdowns. George, a sophomore, was also Wilkes leading rusher going for 67 yards on12 carries. Aux Wogou added a 1-yard TD plunge for the Colonels in the third quarter and freshman Andrew Regan punched in a 6-yard score

OWINGS MILLS, Md. In 2010, Kings waited until the ninth week of the season to notch head coach Jeff Knarr his first career win. In his second season, he didnt have to wait nearly as long.

the third to put the Monarchs ahead 38-17. Kirchon also connected with Glenn Ford (3 receptions, 32 yards) for a 12-yard score, which put Kings up 4819 with 9:17 to go in the game.

Will it be the death of delivery?
Baby steps holding back U.S. economy

couple of recent business stories struck me as jarring and sad illustrations of what ails the American economy. Both contained news that most people would consider positive, but with a back story that is not encouraging. One, about plans by the Darden restaurant chain operators of Olive Garden, Red Lobster and other national brands to cut calories and sodium in its meals, offered some hope that fighting the nations disturbing trend toward obesity might become a corporate cause. But the breakthrough moment, as First Lady Michelle Obama dubbed it, was clouded by this; the company is committing to a 10 percent reduction by 2016 and 20 percent over the next decade. Why not next week? Is this really the best we can do any more, a modest improvement that will take 10 years to institute. And should we be cheering or jeering an announcement like this? Im inclined to the latter, because I think this shows how lethargic and unimaginative some sectors of the U.S. business community have become, even as they try to curry favor with politicians and the public through symbolic but largely meaningless promises. More significant, I think, was news that after years of resistance, U.S. credit card issuers will finally introduce the more secure chip and pin cards in use virtually everywhere else in the world. Well, at least theyre moving toward the chip part. The technology places account information on a tiny electronic chip embedded in the plastic, rather than on the black magnetic strips that have been used decades. Whats the difference? Information on the strips can be easily copied by thieves who can then go on spending sprees on your account. The chip is more difficult to crack. Alas, Visa says it will not mandate the second security check, which would require that users verify their purchase by entering a four-digit code, just as you do with an ATM card. The combination of the hard-to-read chip and PIN greatly reduce the instance of fraud. As an added check, the card never leaves your sight, since its inserted into a reader that incorporates the typing pad. The card system in this country has been dysfunctional for a long time, said Mallory Duncan, general counsel of the National Retail Federation. We have far, far too much fraud because we have a very antiquated payment system relative to the rest of the world. This is something they should have fixed a long time ago. Whats it worth? An economist who studies these things says that in 2006, criminals skimmed off 9 cents out every $100 charged to cards in the U.S. In Spain, where the cards have been used for years, it was 2 cents. Because card issuers absorb the bulk of the cost of fraud, you would think theyd have moved faster on this. And since it can take card holders years to straighten out the damage caused by stolen account information, you might think the government would have leaned on banks to adopt the proven technology. After all, were constantly reminded that consumer spending represents 70 percent of American economic activity; wouldnt it make sense to help consumers feel more secure in their spending? Not to mention the savings to banks from less fraud, which could be passed on in lower interest rates. But thats not how weve been doing things. Instead we coddle multinational corporations many of the largest credit card-issuing banks got billions in bailout money while adopting a caveat emptor attitude toward citizens. By the way, the cards will be introduced in 2015, not next week.
WASHINGTON Imagine a nation without the Postal Service. No more birthday cards and bills or magazines and catalogs filling the mailbox. Its a worst-case scenario being painted for an organization that lost $8.5 billion in 2010 and seems headed deeper into the red this year. A lot of people would miss it, says Tony Conway, a 34-year post office veteran who now heads the Alliance of Nonprofit Mailers. Businesses, too. The letter carrier or clerk is the face of the mail. But hanging in the balance is a $1.1 trillion mailing industrythatemploysmorethan8million people in direct mail, periodicals, catalogs, financial services, charities and other businesses that depend on the post office. Ernest Burkes Sr. says his bills, magazines and diabetes medication are mailed to his home in Canton, in northeast Ohio, and he frequently visits the post office down the street to send first-class mail, mostly documents for the tax service he runs. As his business increased over the past threedecades,sohastheloadofmail he sends, and its still pretty steady. I dont know what Id do if theyd close down the post offices, said Burkes, who doesnt use rival delivery services such as UPS or FedEx. They need to help them, just like they helped some of these other places, automobiles and others. Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe is struggling to keep his money-losing organization afloat as more and more people are ditching mail in favor of the Internet, causing the lucrative first-class mail flow to plummet. Donahoe has a plan to turn things around, if he can get the attention of Congress and pass a series of hurdles, including union concerns. The Postal Service is not going out of business, postal spokesman David Partenheimer said. We will continue to deliver the mail as we have for more than 200 years. The postmaster general has developed a plan that will return the Postal Service to financial stability. We continue to do what we can on our own to

After flood, victims search for the right contractor

ot many positive things can be said about the devastation caused by last weeks floodwaters. But there are a few bright spots. There were neighbors helping neighbors; businesses and organizations donating cleaning supplies, serving hot meals and offering expertise and manpower to assist with fortifying the stressed levee system and clearing debris; and the regions unemployed contractors, painters, plumbers, electricians and handymen are now finding work.
However, all of those positives are temporary and more than counterbalanced by shuttered businesses, displaced families and lost paychecks, say local economic observers. John Sumansky, the chairman of the business department at Misericordia University, said he hates to say there are positives coming out of such a horrific event but he does expect to see a blip in the unemployment data for the metropolitan statistical area that includes Luzerne, Lackawanna and Wyoming counties. In addition to the companies that will physically be rebuilding, the flood could create work for other businesses, including hazardous cleanup and debris removal companies, architects, computer network engineers and landscapers. Contractors already were out and about last week visiting flood-damaged businesses and homeowners. A painter was handing out business cards at the flooded Tuft-Tex complex in Plains Township, offering a deal that included the first day of work for free and no payment required until the customers insurer sends a check to cover the damages. The scene played out throughout river towns at homes needing windows replaced and businesses needing new boilers installed. And while jobs are jobs, Sumansky said these are not the long-term sustainable jobs the economy needs.

HELP WITH GETTING HELP

In the aftermath of the recent storms that caused extensive damage to properties along the Susquehanna River, property owners will be looking for all types of contractors, electricians, plumbers, etc. to make repairs to their real estate. Danielle Policare, executive officer of the Building Industry Association of NEPA, offered these tips for finding reliable services: Hire a licensed and insured contractor. Make sure they have a Pennsylvania registration number (this does not apply to home builders, only contractors). To check if a contractor is registered, go to www.paattorneygeneral.gov or call 1-888-5206680. Do your homework. Ask for references and contact those references. Get a start/finish date. Call the BIA at 287-3331 for a list of qualified businesses. Check for complaints filed with the Better Business Bureau Get a signed contract with all of the details included.
U.S. gets chance to catch up on credit card security

By PETER SVENSSON AP Technology Writer
NEW YORK The next time you swipe your credit card at check-out, consider this: Its a ritual the rest of the world deems outdated and unsafe. The United States is the only developed country still hanging on to credit and debit cards with those black magnetic stripes, the kind you swipe through retail terminals. The rest of the industrialized world has switched or is in the process of switching to smart chip-based cards. The problem with that black magnetic stripe on the back of your credit card is that its about as secure as writing your account information on a postcard: everything is in the clear and can be copied. Card fraud, and the measures taken to prevent it, costs U.S. mer-
chants, banks and consumers billions each year. The smart cards cant be copied, which greatly reduces the potential for fraud. Smart cards with built-in chips are the equivalent of a safe: they can hide information so it can only be unlocked with the right key. Because the important information is hidden, the cards cant be replicated. But the stripes have been so entrenched in the vast U.S. payment system that banks, payment processors and retailers have failed to reach consensus on how to revamp it, leaving the U.S. behind the rest of the world. The card system in this country has been dysfunctional for a long time, says Mallory Duncan, general counsel of the National Retail Federation. We have far, far too much fraud because we
have a very antiquated payment system relative to the rest of the world. This is something they should have fixed a long time ago. Now there are serious moves to swap conventional cards for smart cards in a few years. Last month, Visa announced new policies that will give U.S. banks a reason to issue smart cards and stores several reasons to accept them, starting in 2015. Eric Schindewolf, product manager for smart cards at Wells Fargo & Co., says Visas announcement is a watershed moment. AP PHOTO I think that the U.S. has reached a Two smart cards are displayed in tipping point. Youll begin to see more London.

up in the pockets of criminals. The comparable figure for Spain was 2 cents. Sullivan believes the use of smart cards there is a big reason for the difference. Other factors play a role, too. Spaniards, for instance, are less likely to shop online. Javelin Strategy & Research puts the amount of fraud based on stolen card numbers in the U.S. at $14 billion. Fraud based on new card accounts created using stolen identities adds billions more the total cost of identity fraud in the country is $37 billion. Visas move comes as industry experts are warning that U.S. merchants are set to become targets for fraudsters in other countries where payment systems already have tighter security. Since counterfeit magnetic-stripe cards are now difficult to use in other countries, these criminals will probably ship the cards to the U.S. That prospect is especially worrisome now that Mexico and Canada, are adopting smart cards, experts say. Theres already evidence that that type of channel for fraud is increasing in the U.S., says Sullivan. Javelin puts the cost of moving to chipbased cards at about $8 billion, mostly for upgrading payment terminals in stores. The retail federations Duncan calls Visas move a necessary step, but not a fully satisfactory one. One of the shortcoming he sees is that it doesnt mandate the use of PIN codes with smart cards, so even if the cards cant be copied, they could still be used on a signature basis if stolen.
EBay making bid for hipper image

By RACHEL METZ AP Technology Writer
CARDS
Continued from Page 1D
SAN JOSE, Calif. EBays name is synonymous with auctions, but thats created an image problem for the online marketplace. These days, most of the things people purchase on the site arent sold through auctions; they have fixed prices. And, the majority of items for sale are new not musty antiques or old collectibles. Richelle Parham, eBay Inc.s chief marketing officer, says plenty of people see eBay as an auction-focused marketplace, despite the reality. We need to change that perception, she says. The company wants to be seen as an e-commerce innovator, rather than a staid auction site. To promote that image, eBay is embarking on a major ad campaign aimed at consumers who shop on smartphones. At the same time, eBay hopes it will change consumers perceptions about the company. The campaign, eBays first big marketing effort in several years, comes in the midst of a multi-year effort to improve the buying and selling experience on eBay.com. Its
the 16-year-old companys first campaign to focus on mobile shopping a small but rapidly growing revenue source. The company was one of the first to offer an iPhone app through Apples App Store when it opened in mid-2008, and in the last three years, eBays various smartphone and tablet apps have been downloaded more than 50 million times. People arent just using the apps to browse. Theyre buying. In 2010, the value of goods purchased from the site using mobile devices totaled $2 billion. This year, eBay predicted that figure would double, and mobile vice president Steve Yankovich says the company will unquestionably top its $4 billion goal. Mobile apps are bringing in new users, too. Between January and July, nearly 500,000 new eBay shoppers joined up and made their first purchase via mobile. Given this, eBay is emphasizing the idea that people can shop on its site at anytime, anywhere, for anything. The TV commercials and other ads eBay will start rolling out on Wednesday are geared toward three types of mobile-happy shoppers it identified through market research:
the fashionista, the electronics junkie and the auto parts and accessory fan, all of whom are in different situations when shopping inspiration strikes. Parham says these three kinds of consumers were chosen as the focus, in part, because they tend to own smartphones (eBay believes 60 percent of the people that it considers fashion enthusiasts and 65 percent of electronics enthusiasts are so equipped, for example). The campaign will be unveiled over the next 11 weeks, to coincide with the holiday shopping season. In addition to commercials, the campaign includes print, online and outdoor ads. There will also be movie theater ads, many of which will air as one of the last commercial spots before the familiar announcement urging moviegoers to turn off their cell phones. Forrester analyst Sucharita Mulpuru says it makes sense that eBay is concentrating its campaign on mobile shopping, since the market is still pretty small and the shopping experience is generally bad. Also, Mulpura notes: there are not yet a lot of products that people feel comfortable buying on their phones.
U.S. consumers, Schindewolf says. Smart cards are recognizable by the fingernail-sized gold contacts embedded on one side. Through the contacts, a chip inside the card can transmit information to a terminal when slid into a slot. Heres how a smart card works in practice: When its time to settle the bill at Le Gaspard de la Nuit, a tiny restaurant just off the Place de la Bastille in Paris, the waiter brings to the table a wireless payment terminal. The customer inserts his chip-equipped smart credit card and enters his code on the keypad. Voila! The foie gras is paid for without the card leaving the customers sight, and the combination of chip and PIN code kept the transaction safe from fraud. The U.S. payments industry has so far been locked up in a chicken and egg quandary, Schindewolf says. Stores had little reason to install terminals for smart cards if banks didnt issue them, and aside from some contactless cards, banks didnt issue them because stores wouldnt accept them. The impasse has left U.S. businesses and consumers struggling with higher fraud rates. Richard Sullivan, the senior economist in payments research at the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, says that in 2006, 9 cents out every $100 paid by card in the U.S. ended
FLOOD
These are going to be temporary. At best what the construction companies will do is put in temporary workers. In four to six weeks, theyll all be gone, Sumansky said. He said those who are employed at businesses that were affected by the flood might offset the temporary employment bump because they will be out of work until their employer rebuilds or reopens. It might be a wash, Sumansky said. Anthony Liuzzo, director of the master of business administration program at Wilkes University, said he sees very little positive coming out of this disaster. He said families and businesses already struggling to pay their bills will now
have to come up with funds to rebuild. He said there will be a redistribution of wealth and while some sectors will benefit, others will suffer. This in no way will be categorized as stimulating the economy, Liuzzo said. But one industry Liuzzo and Sumansky both noted as beneficiaries of the flood are those in the building trades. Danielle Policare, the executive officer of the Building Industry Association of Northeastern Pennsylvania, said there is no doubt that builders and related businesses will be slammed with work as a result of the flood. She said that while she hates to see work created from something so bad, at least something good is coming out of it. Contractors who have laid off staff and have been employing a
skeleton crew the past few years will be recalling employees to handle the workload. David. R. Balent, who runs an Exeter-based construction company, said the work comes at an opportune time. He said business has been slow in recent years with the bad economy and people being so budget conscious. As painful as it is to see friends and neighbors going through what they are, he is glad he can help them get their lives back in order. It just tugs at your heartstrings, though, Balent said. His office phone has been knocked out but his cell phone has been ringing constantly and he believes hell have his busiest fall in a decade. Balent said hes likely to add three more employees to his staff of six in the next few weeks. Others expect a surge in business, but not everyone will be hiring to handle the increased work-
load. Alan Grula, who owns Grula Electric, LLC in Wilkes-Barre Township, said he has been getting calls from flood victims and he expects an uptick in business as residents and businesses start to get a sense of the damage and begin the process of rebuilding. But he believes his staff of four, which includes himself, will not grow. Mike Scibek, who owns a drywall company in Swoyersville that employs six, said he has not received many calls but expects them to begin pouring in any day. I think its too early, he said. Drywall will be on the list of things to do but its not one of the first calls made. Usually cleanup, basement pumping, electrical and flooring come first. He said while its possible he will have to bring on some temporary employees, its not likely. All in all, Liuzzo does not expect

SMALL TALK
Manager must avoid playing favorites

By MARIE G. MCINTYRE McClatchy-Tribune News Service
Hard-to-compare health insurance challenges businesses

By MIKE ARMSTRONG The Philadelphia Inquirer
Q: On a recent employee opinion survey, my staff gave me a terrible rating on favoritism. I have no idea why they feel that Im biased, since I try to be very consistent in applying policies and enforcing rules. I do have a closer connection with certain employees, because we share common interests, but no one receives any special treatment. What can I do about this? A: Since you are dealing with perceptions, not facts, your employees may have a completely different interpretation of your behavior. Suppose, for example, that common interests cause you to regularly have lunch with particular staff members or chat with them more frequently. The others could easily view this extra attention as favoritism. Let us further suppose that you decide to send one of your lunch buddies to a professional conference. Although this decision may have been based solely on her need for training, others might see it as a perk for one of your pets. An accumulation of such examples can earn you a reputation for playing favorites, even if that is not your intention. The first step towards better survey scores is to objectively evaluate your interactions with employees, then make an effort to distribute your attention more equally. If the survey were conducted by your human resources department, you might also consider asking the HR manager to conduct confidential follow-up interviews with your staff. The moral of this story is that managers should always be aware of the messages sent by their actions. While its perfectly normal to enjoy the company of some people more than others,
you must be careful not to make that preference obvious. Q: Our new regional manager was transferred here after being demoted from a higher-level position. This guy has no idea what our jobs involve and apparently doesnt care. He seems to believe that cutting costs will help him return to the corporate ivory tower, so he has started randomly reducing our work hours. Previously, schedules were posted two weeks in advance, but now they can change at a moments notice. Employees are frequently called at home and told not to come in the next day or instructed to leave as soon as they arrive at the office. Meanwhile, the work is piling up. How can we end this nightmare? A: If this chaos is a reflection of your new leaders management style, then his recent demotion is completely understandable. Before approaching him, however, you need to determine the driving force behind these cost reductions. If slicing payroll was his own original idea, you should help your manager see how staff shortages could actually harm the business. But if he is simply responding to orders from above, then you need to demonstrate the benefits of a more orderly implementation plan. Either way, the key is to convince your disorganized boss that the current strategy might make him look bad to upper management. If returning to corporate is his ultimate objective, then thats the best way to influence him.

Nothing exasperates smallbusiness owners more than the cost and complexity of health insurance. The mood of men and women who have built businesses can go from manic excitement about what they do to utter frustration when the conversation turns to the annual chore of trying to pick a health plan that wont bust the budget. Many of them switch insurance providers every year, chasing lower cost. Or they trim plan benefits to try to hold down the level of the premium increases. These are smart people who seek out and find the lowest prices for all sorts of goods and services. Why cant they successfully chip away at the cost of their health insurance plans? A new paper by a Boston University management professor and several colleagues points the finger at an economics concept called search frictions. In an interview, James Rebitzer said
such frictions occur whenever consumers cannot easily compare the options available to them, and thats especially true of those who try to buy individual and small group health plans. If search frictions sounds at all familiar, it may be because the 2010 Nobel Prize for economics went to three economists, including MITs Peter A. Diamond, for their work on the concept in the 1970s and 1980s. Their research explored labor markets where there can be a large number of job openings at the same time a lot of people are unemployed. A similar disconnect occurs with health insurance. Businesses have to buy it every year. There are dozens of health insurance plans to pick from, and at all sorts of prices. Its hard to compare one plan with another. So what does a businessperson do? Hire an insurance broker or consultant to make sense of it all and offer a recommendation. Small businesses, in fact, are doing what they need to do to
lower costs in a market-based system. According to Rebitzers paper, published in the August 2011 issue of the American Economic Review, the trouble is the system doesnt work. Search frictions increase the cost of health insurance in the small-group market 29 percent on average, concludes the paper. While there is competition among insurers, the fog of uncertainty gives them great pricing power. So instead of being forced by competition to offer equivalent plans at low prices, insurers offer all sorts of plans at prices set above their marginal cost. After a lot of math, Rebitzer and his colleagues concluded that search frictions are a factor in transferring about 13.2 percent of the consumer surplus from policyholders to insurers. Much of it was spent on marketing by insurers of all those plans. The Pennsylvania Insurance Department held three public hearings in August on how it should construct such an exchange where patient advocates,
insurers, and business groups offered their two cents. (If you missed it, you can catch a very long video of it on the departments website.) Among those testifying was Gerry McGlone, middle-market practice leader at Trion, an insurance broker and consultant with 320 employees in King of Prussia. He defended his industrys role, calling the services provided an extension to the HR departments of employers. The fees and commissions paid are not an unnecessary expense, he said. I will say that I think weve come a long way as an industry as far as transparency on fees. And if we cant create value, we shouldnt get paid. But Im very, very confident that we do create a lot of value in the process. Brokers and consultants may indeed help employers and their employees navigate the health system, Rebitzer said. But his advice for businesses hiring brokers echoes Ronald Reagan: Trust, but verify. said it would review 252 mail processing facilities across the country overthenextthreemonthsforpossible closing. Currently there are 487 such offices, including one in Scranton, which is among those under review. The Internet, along with the advent of online bill paying, has contributed to a sharp decline in mail handled by the post office, from 207billionin2001to171billionlast year. Although the price of stamps has increased from 34 cents to 44 centsoverthesameperiod,itisnot enough to cover the post offices bills, in part because of higher labor costs.

achieve this plan and we need Congress to do its part to get us there. He acknowledged that if Congress doesnt act, the post office could reach a point next summer where it doesnt have the money to keep operating. Donahoe and his predecessor, John Potter, have warned for years of the problems and stressed that the post office will be unable to make a mandated $5.5 billion payment due Sept. 30 to a fund for future medical benefits for retirees. A 90-day delay on the payment has been suggested, but postal officials and others in the industry say a long-term solution is needed. Donahoe has one. It includes laying off staff beyond the 110,000 cutinthepastfouryears,closingas many as 3,700 offices, eliminating Saturday delivery and switching from the federal retirement plan to

RAH RAH Be wary when a company appoints a former financial analyst to its board. Odds are that the person was a former cheerleader for the company, says research from Harvard Business School and AQR Capital Management. The researchers found 51 examples from 1993 to 2006 where an analyst went from covering a company to joining its board. Of them, 82 percent previously had a Buy rating on the stock. Out of all the other analysts covering the company, only 57 percent had Buy ratings. One effect: Once former cheerleaders join the board as independent directors, companies often boost CEO compensation. SOFT LANDING Cottons price drop means breathing room for apparel companies. Makers of socks, underwear and other clothes had been getting squeezed by cottons rise from 49 cents per pound at the start of 2009 to $2.15 in March. But it has since dropped more than 40 percent, and financial analysts say investors will really see the benefits next year. If cotton prices stay where they are, and if the price increases that apparel companies pushed through earlier this year stick, profit margins will be fatter. Citi analyst Kate McShane says Hanesbrands and Phillips-Van Heusen would likely be winners because cotton is such a big part of their annual bills.

PAINFULLY GOOD? Prices for solar equipment are falling so fast that panel makers are going bankrupt. Solyndra shut down last month, even after receiving a $528 million federal loan. One of the reasons that it cited was a severe compression of prices. But the trend may actually be good for the industry, some analysts say. Its forcing solar manufacturers to lower their costs enough to eventually survive without government incentives. For now, investors should focus on solar makers with already low costs, says Kaufman Bros. analyst Jeffrey Bencik. He suggests First Solar, whose costs are about 30 percent lower than rivals costs.

Time to brace for a plunge?

Economic forecaster Harry Dent is known for his wild stock market predictions. In a new book, he warns that the Dow Jones industrial average could fall to about 3,000 by 2013. But not all of Dents estimates have been accurate in the past. He talks with The Associate Press about what investors should do now. Whats your forecast for whats ahead? We see another crash kind of similar to what we saw in 2008, 2009. ...The stimulus is trying to fight 92 million baby boomers who have peaked in their spending. (Theyve) bought all of the houses theyre going to buy in their lifetime and are looking to save and pay down debt, not spend and borrow, which the government is trying to get them to do. Weve said for years, this stimulus is ultimately going to fail. It will always work at first, but then the economy will flop back.
Taking refuge in defense

Stocks of defense contractors have plunged this year on worries about cuts to military spending.
Raytheon stock is down 9 percent this year. Northrop Grumman is down 7 percent. And General Dynamics is down 15 percent. Thats far worse than the 3 percent drop in the S&P 500. Some financial analysts say investors are overreacting to plans to cut the defense budget. Its true that the cuts could affect the stocks in the short term, but spending isnt in a permanent decline, says Citi analyst Jason Gursky. The government plans to cut at least $350 billion in military spending over the next decade as part of an agreement reached this summer to reduce the deficit. A special deficit-reduction committee is expected to announce more cuts later this year. But Gursky notes that public support for defense programs is strong.

Treasury yields rebound

The yield on the 10-year Treasury note rose to 2.06 percent this week after five major central banks gave support to European lenders. That encouraged investors to move out of bonds and into riskier investments like stocks. Mortgage rates remained at their lowest level in six decades. The average rate on a 30-year fixed mortgage fell to 4.09 percent, down from 4.12 percent.

That beats the 2.06 percent yield on the 10-year Treasury note. The S&P 500s average dividend yield is 2.3 percent.

Whats the timing on all of this? We think that this crash has already started. It looks like the stock markets peaked in late April, when the first wave down in a broader crash (began). This first wave down will probably go a little lower. Maybe the Dow goes below 10,000 in October. Then we think there will be a strong year-end rally, because our indicators show that the economy will be a lot stronger than people expect in the fourth quarter. ... Then we go into a deeper, third wave in 2012 and it continues maybe perhaps into 2013 or so. So this is going to take a couple years. Youve acknowledged that youve made some wrong calls in the past, including a prediction that the Dow would rise between 32,000 and 40,000 in 2008. That didnt happen. So what should investors take away from these estimates? Were saying: Sell on bounces. We just told investors when the S&P 500 bounced to 1,230 after this recent mini-crash in August, sell. Get out of stocks. Aggressive investors can re-buy if we do go lower in October, because we do think theres going to be a strong year-end rally. And, then if we rally again in December or early January, sell. Protect yourself. So where should people put their money? Youve mentioned you like the dollar. Our ultimate haven for protection is the U.S. dollar. One thing all these crazy gold bugs (are saying) is that the dollar is going to crash and gold is going to go up to $5,000 (an ounce). Theyre going to be so dead wrong on that. ... I think (the dollar) could be up 30 to 50 percent over the next few years when everything else is crashing. But what do you say to critics who argue that market timing is just too dangerous? Shouldnt most long-term investors just stay the course? In long-term bull markets, like 1983 to 2007, yes, thats a good thing to do. It is hard to time the markets, and people who do it usually lose. But when you get into an extended downturn ... you need to be either in safer investors where you can sleep at night, like long-term bonds when (interest) rates go up. Or youre going to have to do some kind of timing. ... If youre not willing to time the market, you shouldnt be in it, because its going to be very volatile. This is not one of those times that buy-and-hold will work.

Stock Screener
Investors are piling onto these stocks, betting that they will fall. These are the S&P 500 companies with the biggest increases in investors shorting their shares over the last three months. When investors short a stock, they borrow a share and sell it. Later, if it falls in price as the investors expect, they can buy back the stock and pocket the difference as a profit. Short interest in Ecolab jumped more than 400 percent in three months, for example. The cleaning and pest-control company has reported at least 10 percent per-share profit growth in seven of the last 10 years, and Credit Suisse analysts say its core business still looks strong. But Ecolab is in the process of buying Nalco

Holding, a water treatment company, for $5.4 billion. The water business has less stable profits and more competition, and worries about the merger mean Credit Suisse has just a Neutral
rating on the stock. Moodys Investors Service has also said that it plans to cut Ecolabs debt rating once it finishes the acquisition.

OPINION
Theyve earned our unending appreciation

THE STRONG WIND and heavy rain visited upon Northeastern Pennsylvania from the remnants of Hurricane Irene had come and gone. Damage done, the satiated watershed enveloping Pennsylvania towns north of the Wyoming Valley could absorb no mas. So began the sequence of events two weeks ago that left the Valley with a Heart battered but not broken. At that time the river running through it was 4 feet high. Desperate for a stretch of sunny September days, those people working and living within sight of the Susquehanna River watched as Tropical Storm Lee, laden with precipitation from the Gulf of Mexico, began chasing Irene north through the eastern United States. Covering Irenes tracks was the category 1 Hurricane Katia, making her way up the Atlantic coast. Katia kept Lee bottled up. Slowing his progress over land and us, together they created another more perfect storm. Invading from the south, Lee dropped incredible amounts of water on the Wyoming Valley and points strategically located north of our position. Rainfall was measured in multiple inches and it would all run down upon us in the rising currents of a raging river. The Susquehanna was preparing its ascent. By Wednesday (Sept. 7) the Susquehanna River at Wilkes-Barre was approaching 15 feet. Twenty-four hours later much of the Wyoming Valley was under a mandatory evacuation order. Agnes. Jim Brozena, Executive Director of the Luzerne County Flood Protection Authority already had assumed his position in the war room of the emergency management offices on Water Street. In the face of Lees massive assault, Team Brozena would deploy the Valleys defenses designed to save lives and protect as much property as was humanly possible. They did a masterful job. Brozena, a 1978 graduate of Penn State University, served more than two decades as Luzerne Countys chief engineer. During that time he developed a vast network of professional relationships built on a foundation of talent, competency and respect. No one knows more about the Valleys levee system. Perhaps no other person could have mustered the battalion of pros, local officials, first responders and volunteers necessary to avert total catastrophe and local economic Armageddon. Sheriffs deputies and other officials were dispatched along the levee system to check for problem areas, boils, anything that might cause concern. Police, firefighters, public works employees, heavy equipment operators and more courageously stood in harms way, shoring up hot spots and seepage along the barrier. The water pressure was enormous. The alternative, unthinkable. Area engineering firms Borton & Lawson, A&E, Quad 3 offered assistance to their friend and colleague in charge. Col. Dave Andrews, commander of the Baltimore District of the Army Corps of Engineers, arrived on scene, as did so many others. In the aftermath, Brozena had praise for everyone: It was a perfect response to a perfect storm. He added, Perhaps it was divine intervention. It was both. It also was the tireless work of former Congressman Paul Kanjorski who relentlessly pursued the millions of dollars in federal funding earmarks required to raise the levees and protect as much of the Wyoming Valley as possible. It took a decade of steadfast determination against powerful opposition in Washington, but Kanjorski would not give up. He fought for the money and won. The levee project was built, and in one week it prevented roughly $4 billion in unimaginable destruction. It preserved the economy of the Wyoming Valley and its very network of commerce. To Jim and Paul, to everyone who assisted them and those now helping families in need, please accept the appreciation of a grateful community.

ASHINGTON The economy needs to be fixed. On this, Democrats and Republicans agree. They part ways over how to do it and, specifically, what role the federal government should play. Ultimately, President Barack Obama tells Congress, our recovery will be driven not by Washington, but by our businesses and our workers. But we can help. His argument that government has a responsibility to do so probably doesnt sit well with an America thats down on Washington. Texas Gov. Rick Perry, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and other Republicans competing for his job take a different tack as they court a tea party-infused GOP electorate: The economy will thrive, they say, if Washington simply gets out of the way. As Perry puts it: Smaller government, less spending, fewer regulations.
At the heart of the 2012 presidential race is an issue as old as the country itself. Is it the federal governments responsibility to address what ails the nation, in this case the economy? And if so, to what degree? What is the right balance? History tells us that, try as we might, we may never answer those questions; weve been debating them ever since the Jeffersonians and the Federalists squabbled over states rights vs. a strong central government. In the end, the Constitution assigned certain powers to the federal government while reserving others to states. But the tension in America between the purely local and a faroff central government has never gone away. Nor, perhaps, should it in an ever-evolving democracy. These days, Republicans argue for a limited government, claiming that lower taxes and less regulation will encourage job creation. Democrats advocate a more robust government, one that provides more services, pours more money into the economy and, in Obamas case, raises taxes on the nations highest earners. Weve been in this pattern for decades. These are the terms of our politics probably for the next generation, too, said Charles Kesler, who teaches government at Claremont McKenna College and edited Saving the Revolution: The Federalist Papers and the American Founding. Given the scripts, the question that ultimately determines who wins the presidency might be this: What do Americans want from their government?

For many, the answer is difficult to articulate. Larry Parkin, a conservative who hosts a discussion group on the Federalist Papers with the South Pinellas 9.12 Patriots in St. Petersburg, Fla., just started collecting Social Security, which he calls a contract with the government. The 65-year-old Coast Guard retiree expects the country to secure the borders and protect the nation. Beyond that, he says: I expect them to be less intrusive than they are. I expect them to have a limited role. But he struggles to identify exactly where the line between too much and too little government lies. Ask Ashley Stilos, a liberal in Fayetteville, Ark., the same question and she says one of the governments roles is to take care of its people, adding: Every individual should have the right to pursue happiness from an equal
fighting ground, and thats not the way it is in society. Is it the governments job to make that playing field level? The 27-year-old university loan specialist says: They have the power to make it more equal, and its their responsibility to do that. Americans views of government have shifted in recent years, according to an analysis of Associated Press exit polls. In 1992, more than half of voters thought government was doing too many things better left to businesses and individuals. But by 2008, a majority, for the first time, wanted government to do more to solve the nations problems. That didnt last long after Obama took office. In quick fashion, he signed into law an economic stimulus plan, oversaw an autoSee RECOVERY, Page 6E
RICK PERRY MUST BE STARTING to feel a little like that coyote he shot a while back. This time around, its Perry whos under the gun and wearing a bulls-eye on his face, so to speak. The rhetorical lead was flying at, around and straight through the Texas governor during Mondays televised debate in Tampa, Fla., as his seven rivals for the Republican presidential nomination paid tribute to his newly won front-runner status by making him the focal point of their intramural wrath and ridicule. To his credit, Perry weathered the onslaught with good humor, if not always great answers to the questions that were hurled at him and the verbal land mines that were strewn in his path by his fellow candidates and debate moderator Wolf Blitzer of the Cable News Network. Previous front-runner Mitt Romney and the other GOP hopefuls have made Perry feel as welcome as a gate-crasher since he barged into the race on Aug. 6 and the aspiring commanders in chief were in no mood for fellowship by the time they all gathered for the CCN/Tea Party Express debate at Tampas Florida State Fairgrounds. Perry was forced to defend himself on topics ranging from Social Security (does he really think its a Ponzi scheme?) to vaccinations for young girls (why in the world would he order Texas kids inoculated against a sexually transmitted disease that causes cervical cancer?) and just about everything else he has said, done or written during his long political career in the Lone Star State. The jury is very much out on whether Perry can withstand the in-house barrage through future debates, party caucuses and presidential primaries, not to mention the national media scrutiny and assorted potshots from Democrats who would rather see Perry washed out in the preseason than go one-on-one against President Obama in the 2012 election. There is no shortage of expert opinion suggesting that Perrys relatively sheltered background in Texas may have left him woefully unprepared for the national spotlight that has wilted so many presidential candidates before him even some who jumped into the campaign with a big splash only to float quietly into the sunset, adrift on a raft of auspicious beginnings and failed aspirations. Can we say Howard Dean, boys and girls? Rick Perry is no Howard Dean, of course, and he can thank his lucky stars for that. So far, at least, he has stayed calm and focused, neither smitten with his sudden national notoriety nor intimidated by the array of media critics and political opponents aligned against him. On the other hand, its early in the game. Were still months away from the first caucuses and primaries; Perry could march on to the nomination or find himself back in Texas hunting coyotes long before next years scorching summer. Meanwhile, the Republican campaign continues to be a bafflement. In Mondays debate, the candidates squabbled among themselves over issues that might best be described as inside baseball and barely addressed the nations all-consuming obsession: the economy. The man the eight candidates want to unemploy, President Obama, has been barnstorming the nation in support of

Latest from Obama: Different words, same failing effect

THOSE PEOPLE who are impressed by words seem to think that President Barack Obama made a great speech to Congress earlier this month. But, when you look beyond the rhetoric, what did he say that was fundamentally different from what he has been saying and doing all along? Are we to continue doing the same kinds of things that have failed again and again, just because Obama delivers clever words with style and energy? Once we get past the glowing rhetoric, what is the president proposing? More spending! Only the words have changed from stimulus to jobs and from shovel-ready projects to jobs for construction workers. If government spending were the answer, we would by now have a booming economy with plenty of jobs, after all the record trillions of dollars that have been poured down a bottomless pit. Are we to keep on doing the same things, just because those things have been repackaged in different words? Or just because Obama now assures us that everything in this bill will be paid for? This is the same man who told us that he could provide health insurance to millions more people without increasing the cost. When it comes to specific proposals, President Obama repeats the same kinds of things that have marked his past policies more government spending for the benefit of his

political allies, the construction unions and the teachers unions, and thousands of transportation projects. The fundamental fallacy in all of this is the notion that politicians can grow the economy by taking money out of the private sector and spending it wherever it is politically expedient to spend it so long as they call spending investment. Has Obama ever grown even a potted plant, much less a business, a bank, a hospital or any of the numerous other institutions whose decisions he wants to control and override? But he can talk glibly about growing the economy. Arrogance is no substitute for experience. That is why the country is in the mess it is in now. Obama says he wants federal housing agencies to help more people refinance their mortgages. What does that amount to in practice, except having the taxpayers be forced to bail out people who bought homes they could not afford? No doubt that is good politics, but it is lousy economics. Whatever his deficiencies in economics, Barack Obama is a master of politics including the great political game of Heads I

win and tails you lose. Any policy that shows any sign of achieving its goals will of course be trumpeted across the land as a success. But, in the far more frequent cases where the policy fails or turns out to be counterproductive, the political response is: Things would have been even worse without this policy. Its heads I win and tails you lose. Thus, when unemployment went up after the massive spending that was supposed to bring it down, we were told that unemployment would have been far worse if it had not been for that spending. Are we really supposed to fall for ploys like this? The answer is clearly yes, as far as Obama and his allies are concerned. Our intelligence was insulted even further in President Obamas speech to Congress, when he set up this straw man as what his critics believe that the only thing we can do to restore prosperity is just dismantle government, refund everybodys money, and let everyone write their own rules, and tell everyone theyre on their own. Have you heard anybody in any part of the political spectrum advocate that? If not, then why was the president of the United States saying such things, unless he thought we were fools enough to buy it and that the news media would never call him on it?

OTHER OPINION: GOP DEBATE
T LAST WEEKS Republican presidential candidates debate in Tampa, moderator Wolf Blitzer asked Rep. Ron Paul a question that inadvertently gave everyone watching a peek into the tea partys heart of darkness. The CNN anchor asked Paul to address the hypothetical case of a 30-year-old man with a good job and good income who decides not to buy health insurance because hes healthy. In Blitzers scenario, something terrible happens to the man and he slips into a coma, but he has no health insurance to cover the cost of care. Who pays for that? Blitzer asked. After making a perfunctory statement denouncing welfarism and socialism, Paul said that the young man should assume responsibility for himself and not expect the government to take care of him. When Blitzer pressed on with the scenario, adding that the comatose man needs intensive care for six months, the audience hooted. Thats what freedom is all about, taking your own risks, Paul said over audience ap-
Tea and sympathy? Not from this party In war on terror, U.S. could be its own worst enemy
plause. The CNN anchor must have believed he had the fiery Libertarian cornered. But congressman, Blitzer said, are you saying that society should just let him die? Thats when some in the audience shouted yeah. It was a chilling moment reminiscent of the previous GOP presidential debate when the mere mention of the fact Texas Gov. Rick Perry executed 234 people during his tenure drew raucous applause. To say there is a cold-bloodedness and a touch of blood-thirstiness in recent tea party events would be an understatement. We know that empathy is on the wane in our political discourse even as poverty has increased. Many people feel that protecting their own interests at the expense of the commonweal is the only rational course of action. This thinking is as shortsighted as it is un-American. Certainly no one expects the Republican primary process to resemble the Lincoln-Douglas debates, but it shouldnt remind us of the Romans cheering the lions against the Christians, either.

win? Not really. What weve won is hard knowledge that cost us dearly. And what weve lost well, that will cost us even more. We know now (and many knew at the start) that there never was a war on terrorism. The Bush administration used that term to rally the country at a terrible time, but it was badly misleading. It misdiagnosed the nature of the struggle. This was not a conventional war such as World War II in which victory could be won by bullets. At the broader level, it was a battle of ideas that would take decades to play out. At the narrow level, it should have been a very specific effort to crush the jihadi network that had attacked us: al-Qaida. Yet in 2001, we were accustomed to fighting states and didnt know how to confront an enemy that was stateless. And so we went to war against states. Let me be clear. I believe we had no choice but to declare war on the Afghan Taliban that was host to bin Laden. However, we were smart enough, initially, to rely on local Afghan ground forces to do the fighting, helped by our air strikes and commandos. After that, the Bush administrations grandiose approach to war against terrorism did us in.
DID WE win the war on terrorism? Ten years after 9/11, Osama bin Laden is dead, and al-Qaida is fractured. Theres been no second attack. So people ask: Did we

Instead of cleaning up the al-Qaida network in Afghanistan and Pakistan, Bush rushed to war in Iraq, which had no al-Qaida. Our shift in focus permitted al-Qaida to flourish in Pakistan and ignored the return of Taliban networks to Afghanistan. Meantime, the gross mishandling of postwar Iraq helped create an al-Qaida monster in that country, where there hadnt been one. It also inspired jihadis elsewhere. And heres the biggest irony: We invaded Iraq because the Bush team convinced itself, despite much evidence to the contrary, that Iraq was home to al-Qaida along with a nuclear program. Yet it was wealthy Saudis who financed al-Qaida and other jihadis. And, after 2001, nuclear-armed Pakistan became home base for al-Qaida and its allies. But we didnt sufficiently confront these two allies, focusing instead on Iraq. Gradually we learned these bitter lessons over the last decade, at a huge cost in lost U.S., Iraqi, and Afghan lives. We developed new strategies for combating stateless terrorists. We learned how to coordinate intelligence-gathering, make use of new technology (including drones) and follow the terrorist money trail. That prevented attacks and broke up networks. Jihadi attacks on Pakistani army and gov-
ernment sites finally persuaded Pakistans government to crack down on some militants, but its cooperation with us is still halfhearted. Otherwise, how could bin Laden have lived in Abbottabad for five years? What we now know is that the effort to disrupt, dismantle and deter jihadi groups from attacking us must continue for a long time. Al-Qaida might be on the ropes, but it has spawned many affiliates that want to hit us and Europe. Those networks can be curbed or broken, but not wholly defeated. Eventually, they will implode or lose their attraction. The good news: This already is happening in the Middle East, where young people have been galvanized by Arab rebellions in which radical jihadis played no part. The bad news: Al-Qaida clones in Pakistan still hope to take over this nuclear-armed state. And so, the war against terrorist networks will continue with far more precision and focus. Our struggle to balance security needs and civil rights will be ongoing. Well learn to live with a certain degree of insecurity, as Europeans and Israelis have long done. Weve realized this is not World War III; the jihadi threat remains real, but we cant let this threat consume us.

Save Social Security with a few adaptations

THE GREAT Social Security Debate, Proposition 1: Of course its a Ponzi scheme. In a Ponzi scheme, the people who invest early get their money out with dividends. But these dividends dont come from any profitable or productive activity they consist entirely of money paid in by later participants. This cannot go on forever because at some point there just arent enough new investors to support the earlier entrants. Word gets around that there are no profits, just money transferred from new to old. The merry-go-round stops, the scheme collapses and the remaining investors lose everything. Now, Social Security is a pay-as-you-go program. A current beneficiary isnt receiving the money she paid in years ago. That money is gone. It went to her parents Social Security check. The money in her check is coming from her sons FICA tax today i.e., her investment was paid out years ago to earlier entrants in the system and her current benefits are coming from the investment of the new entrants into the system. Pay-as-you-go is the definition of a Ponzi scheme. So whats the difference? Ponzi schemes are illegal, suggested one of my colleagues on Inside Washington. But this is perfectly irrelevant. Imagine that Charles Ponzi had lived not in Boston but in the lesser parts of Papua New Guinea where the securities and fraud laws were, shall we say, less developed. He runs his same scheme among the locals give me (invest) one goat today, Ill give (return) you two after six full moons but escapes any legal sanction. Is his legal enterprise any less a Ponzi scheme? Of course not. So what is the difference? Proposition 2: The crucial distinction between a Ponzi scheme and Social Security is that Social Security is mandatory. Thats why Ponzi schemes always collapse and Social Security has not. When its mandatory, youve ensured an endless supply of new participants. Indeed, if Charles Ponzi had had the benefit of the law forcing people into his scheme, hed still be going strong and a perfect candidate for commissioner of the Social Security Administration. But theres a catch. Compulsion allows sustainability; it does not guarantee it. Hence ... Proposition 3: Even a mandatory Ponzi scheme such as Social Security can fail if it cannot rustle up enough new entrants. You can force young people

into Social Security, but if there just arent enough young people in existence to support current beneficiaries, the system will collapse anyway. When Social Security began making monthly distributions in 1940, there were 160 workers for every senior receiving benefits. In 1950, there were 16.5; today, three; in 20 years, there will be but two. Now, the average senior receives in Social Security about a third of what the average worker makes. Applying that ratio retroactively, this means that in 1940, the average worker had to pay only 0.2 percent of his salary to sustain the older folks of his time; in 1950, 2 percent; today, 11 percent; in 20 years, 17 percent. This is a staggering sum, considering that it is apart from all the other taxes he pays to sustain other functions of government, such as Medicare whose costs are exploding. The Treasury already steps in and borrows the money required to cover the gap between what workers pay into Social Security and what seniors take out. When young people were plentiful, Social Security produced a surplus. Starting now and for decades to come, it will add to the deficit, increasingly so as the population ages. Demography is destiny. Which leads directly to Proposition 4: This is one Ponzi scheme that can be saved by adapting to the new demographics. Three easy steps: Change the cost-of-living measure, means test for richer recipients and, most important, raise the retirement age. The current retirement age is an absurd anachronism. Bismarck arbitrarily chose 70 when he created social insurance in 1889. Clever guy: Life expectancy at the time was under 50. When Franklin Roosevelt created Social Security, choosing 65 as the eligibility age, life expectancy was 62. Today it is almost 80. FDR wanted to prevent the aged few from suffering destitution in their last remaining years. Social Security was not meant to provide two decades of greens fees for baby boomers. Of course its a Ponzi scheme. So what? Its also the most vital, humane and fixable of all social programs. The question for the candidates is: Forget Ponzi are you going to fix Social Security?

COMMENTARY
Association provided some heartening survey statistics: More than three-quarters of respondents said they read most or all of a local newspaper every week. And a full 94 percent said they paid for their papers. And what of the Internet threat? Many of these smalltown editors have learned a lesson from watching their big-city counterparts: Dont give it away. Many weeklies, from the Canadian Record in the Texas Panhandle to the Concrete Herald in Washingtons Cascade Mountains, are charging for their Web content, and, because readers cant get that news anywhere else, theyre willing to pay. I wouldnt be so bold as to predict the future, not in a media landscape that is constantly shifting. But when we engage in these discussions about how to monetize journalism, its refreshing to remember a different kind of bottom line, one that lives in the hearts of weekly newspaper editors and reporters who keep churning out news for the corniest of reasons because their readers depend on it.

with New York plates. I still had my pen and shopping list in hand, so I wrote down their license plate number just to quell my anger, the same anger I hear from a lot of people at what they see in the grocery stores. While on the Internet, I decided to search New York welfare fraud and found a simple form I could print and send anonymously to report my experience. I wont ever know the outcome, but I felt compelled to do it. We have doctors overbilling Medicaid and Medicare, people collecting disability who arent disabled, some government employees receiving pensions and benefits to which they are not entitled, and a lot of people on welfare who shouldnt be. Our taxes are, in many cases, going up and up just to cover pension and benefit costs, while the average working person is struggling to survive. The only way to slow this rampant fraud is to start reporting it. No one is going to check for fraud unless complaints are lodged. So dont get mad when you suspect entitlement fraud, report it. Its easy. Its not only your right; its what we used to call your civic duty.
J.E. Smith Larksville
Report suspected program fraud

m not against helping people who really need help. That is what makes this country civilized; but we really need to get a handle on the amount of fraud going on in our entitlement programs. From welfare, Medicaid, Medicare and disability, to government employee entitlements, there is just too much lying, cheating and stealing going on which, in turn, is only compounding our deficit problems. The straw that broke my camels back was standing in line at a grocery store in Nanticoke behind a young couple who purchased more than $300 worth of groceries, much of it soda, on a New York welfare card. They then berated the cashier because their hot, roasted chicken was not covered by the card. The straw was that when I was returning my cart in the parking lot, I saw them loading their welfare food into a late model, black Mercedes-Benz
Carrier criticizes cleanliness teams

am an employee of the U.S. Postal Service, and I am a mail carrier in Plymouth. Recently, the postmaster there made what I considered to be an incredible statement, considering the financial state of the postal service. He stated that there were cleanliness teams traveling to different post offices to see if items such as rubber bands, paperclips or personal items were left at the mail carriers assigned work areas (cases). Granted, there are people at the postal service, even in Plymouth, who probably would make Felix Unger roll over in his grave, but considering the fact that we are
facing close to a $9 billion deficit by the end of this fiscal year, do we really need salaried individuals driving around and checking on who left rubber bands or their caps at their work areas? If these people were on a wage system, I am sure they would be earning in excess of $25 an hour for performing this duty. At a time when the postal services popularity is very low, judging by the recent blogs that I read at a New York Times website, isnt it time for the postal service to finally act responsibly?

Writer: Simple fix to Social Security
the amount of money being put into the system by way of the payroll tax by 50 percent for the employee and employer will strengthen the system. How many new jobs were created when the payroll tax was reduced by 2 percent? Will all of these new jobs produce enough tax revenue to fund the trust fund so that retirees can still buy goods and services as they do now? Why not simply increase the monthly checks for seniors? You can be certain that they will spend what they get and that would increase commerce and create new jobs. I also am not sure why AARP is not in full attack mode to stop this attack on Social Security funding.

Phone merger seen as good move
am sure we are all very thankful that Hurricane Irene is long gone. However, the cleanup continues.
I have heard from many friends and family members about how they communicated during and after the storm. Sounds as if many people held onto their cell phones and that allowed them to communicate throughout the storm. I can only imagine what it might have been like for someone who had no power, was in the dark and wasnt able to communicate with anyone. I have been following the potential merger between AT&T and T-Mobile. It sounds as though their merger will drastically help wireless coverage across rural parts of Pennsylvania, especially parts of the state that were without power for prolonged periods. As you know, winter storms in this part of the state can be as wicked as Irene, causing vast power outages. If we can get increased coverage and better communication during bad storms as a result of AT&T and T-Mobile merging, then I am all for the merger!

mid all the destruction brought to our area by last weeks historic floods, it might surprise some people to learn that none of our regions hundreds of natural gas well sites was compromised disappointing some who had sought to use the flood as pretext for shutting down responsible resource development. On Sept. 9, hours after President Obama declared a state of emergency in Pennsylvania, several anti-Marcellus groups blasted press releases demanding the state shut down all drilling now for the sake of public health and safety. Later that day, even as the waters continued to rise, anther group ordered its members to do some weekend driving with cameras and notebooks, hoping to snap pictures of sites turned upside down by the flood. But as these folks found out, there werent many pictures to take. And theres a reasonfor this: Before a site can be constructed in a flood plain, operators have to secure a special Chapter 105 permit from the state and have that permit and

their flood plan approved by the Army Corps of Engineers. Undeterred, activists scoured the Internet for images of flooded-out well sites to send to the press. It took about a day to figure out their pictures actually came from Pakistan. With this silliness now hopefully behind us, the long and difficult task of putting our Valley back together has begun in earnest. Its an effort that will require lots of people, lots of money and more than a little bit of patience. And its one our industry is committed to supporting and expediting in every way that it can.

Support your local pharmacist
he recent closing of the Borders bookstore in Dickson City has me wondering what the residents of Luzerne County would think if they lost the services of their local pharmacists. The possibility is real. The similarities between what shut Borders and the economic pressures facing retail pharmacy are quite striking, except for one thing: Books are a commodity, drugs purchased at a pharmacy and the services provided by a pharmacist are not. Those warehouse-like mailorder operations are huge profit centers for companies. Oh sure, they will allow local pharmacies to fill your immediate needs, such as antibiotics and diarrhea medicine. The problem is that neither an independent pharmacy nor a chain pharmacy
could stay in business with those few prescriptions. If the mail-order pharmacy trends continue unchecked, the days of having a trusted pharmacist to ask if this medication is right for you will come to an end. What does this do to the local economy? Large companies that depend on local commerce for their survival seem to have no problem sending millions of their dollars out of state each year for mail-order pharmacy services. City, county and state governments do the same thing, with your tax dollars being shipped out of state. This makes about as much sense as the unemployed factory worker who hopes to get a local manufacturing job spending his unemployment check at Walmart on a kitchen table made in China. It would be one thing if the drugs purchased via PBMowned mail order actually reduced or even contained an employers drug cost, but they dont. Virtually every CEO will tell you they have not seen their company drug bill decrease ever in spite of the fact that more drugs than ever have gone generic in the last five years. As a pharmacy, we have seen our sales decrease in the past five years due to increased generics available for the same amount and type of prescriptions filled. The problem is the PBMs are retaining those savings at the employers expense to fatten the bottom line. Its simple: They pay the pharmacy $17, then turn around and bill the employer as much as $217 and keep the difference. So what can you do to save money and support the local
economy? First, be sure you have a relationship with your local pharmacist. He or she knows the most about you and your medication. Second, ask him if the drug on which you are spending your $40 mailorder co-pay for a three-month supply has a similar generic drug available. Then fill it at his store. It might cost you three $10 co-pays to do it, but you are still saving $10, and you are creating local jobs. Dont forget, that mail house didnt try to help you. The local pharmacist took the time. If you send that generic off to be filled by mail, your local pharmacist might not be there next year. Today it is Borders; who will it be tomorrow?

Extreme Muslims are in minority Care Act mandate offends physician I

n 1952 the future Mother Teresa of Calcutta had obtained ecclesiastical permission to leave the Loreto Sisters to found a new congregation of religious women, the Missionary Sisters of Charity. Many of her former students had joined her as novices. Soon Teresa realized that the apartment she and her novices lived in was not adequate for their needs. They began to pray for a larger, more permanent mother house. Sister Teresa approached a Dr. Islam, a Jesuiteducated Muslim and former magistrate, to purchase his attractive property surrounding a courtyard, built on a main road in Calcutta. Islam was planning to move
to Pakistan but had told no one of his intentions. He agreed to sell. After negotiations with Father Julien Henry representing Sister Teresa, the price he set was lower than the value of the land on which it stood. After praying at a nearby mosque, Dr. Islam visited his house and wept. He said to Father Julien from outside the home: I received that house from God. I give it back to him. If this manner of generous behavior on the part of a Muslim seems strange to us American Christians, especially in the light of the tragedies of Sept. 11, 2001, it is because we are most often exposed to the works of extremist Muslims. Peace-loving Muslims are numerous in Islam today, especially in the Gulen movement that underscores education and interfaith dialogue as channels of peace.

object in the strongest terms to mandating birth control with no co-pays under the Affordable Care Act. Birth control subsidized largely by taxpayers is widely available to all women. Demanding that we further subsidize other peoples birth control by increasing our insurance premiums in these days when families are struggling just to make ends meet is an outrage. The mandate violates my conscience and that of many of my fellow doctors, nurses and pharmacists. It is undisputed that one of the operations of contraceptives is to
render the endometrium hostile to implantation so that if fertilization occurs, the newly conceived child may be lost to an early abortion. I also strongly object to the inclusion of free sterilization, as well as abortifacient pills such as Ella, which can work weeks after a persons biological beginning to cause an abortion. And what of Catholic employers and others who oppose birth control but are now going to be compelled to participate in these plans and/or offer it to their employees? This flies in the face of the conscience protections that Americans historically have enjoyed. Further, reducing Catholic health care will hurt many of the sickest people, as the Catholic Church is the largest provider of care to HIV/AIDS patients worldwide. Do you really want to shut off this source of care? The conscience provisions attached to the rule are so narrowly crafted that they would appear to force Catholic institutions to make free birth control and sterilization available in health plans, or cease hiring and providing services to non-Catholics. Ask yourself this: If the government says that your business has to engage in acts that violate your conscience, are you truly free? If Obamacare persists in this, there is a strong possibility that the Catholic hospitals in the country would close. That is about 15 percent of all hospitals. Is that what this country needs? Is more birth control and early abortion worth that much to the current administration?

the work of getting Americans to work. Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann said Washington needs to stay out of education and health issues, claiming: We have the best results when we have the private sector and when we have the family involved. We have the worst results when the federal government gets involved. And Texas Rep. Ron Paul opposes the federal government from having any role that isnt explicitly laid out in the Constitution. One night later, Obama pressed Congress to immediately pass a $450 billion plan to create jobs and jolt the economy, arguing that government was at least partly responsible for fixing it, helping Americans who are hurting and upgrading the nations crumbling roads, bridges and schools. This task of making America more competitive for the long haul, thats a job for all of us, he said, adding: For government and for private companies. For states and for local communities and for every American citizen. He countered the pitch from conservatives and the tea party that heavily cutting government spending and eliminating a chunk of government regulations is the best solution to the economic woes, saying: This larger notion that the only thing we can do to restore prosperity is just dismantle government, refund everybodys money, and let everyone write their own rules, and tell everyone theyre on their own thats not who we are. Thats not the story of America. And he reached back to history to try to prove his point. Obama argued that its workers and entrepreneurs made Americas economy great, the envy of the world. But he also noted that government was responsible for the Transcontinental Railroad, the National Academy of Sciences, the first land grant colleges, the G.I. Bill, the nations highway and air systems, the public school system, research that led to the Internet and the computer chip. Americans will hear these competing visions of government for the next 14 months before casting a vote that will offer a glimpse into Americans views of the scope of government a temporary clarity at best as the debate as old as our founding rages on. and months blasting Obama for his failure to propose a specific plan for improving the economy. Now that he has put a plan on the table, theyll be hard-pressed to reject it without offering an alternative or forfeiting any claim to credibility on economic issues. Republicans in Congress seem content to oppose the Obama plan and wait for a Republican president to take office in January 2013. But unless Obamas wouldbe successors start focusing on the economy instead of each other, defeating Obama might be easier said than done. Bill Thompson

industry bailout and presided over the second installment of money to keep Wall Street afloat. A health care system overhaul came a year later.

It was the most government wary view among independents that the exit poll has recorded, with 65 percent saying government should do less, while 28 percent said it should do more. Nowadays, people across the political spectrum seem to want very little from Washington. A CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll in June found that 63 percent of people think the government is doing too much, while 33 percent want it to do more. And the sentiments of independents, who typically decide close elections, generally mirrored Americans at large. No sooner did eight Republicans take the debate stage at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, Calif., than did they rail against the federal government requiring states to act a certain way, lambast Washington overreach, and argue that fewer regulations and lower taxes would compel businesses to hire again. Theyre looking for a president that will say were going to lower the tax burden on you and were going to lower the regulation impact on you, and free them to do what they do best: create jobs, said Perry, who has staked his candidacy on a promise to make the federal government as inconsequential as possible to peoples lives. He and the others were posturing before a GOP electorate shaped by the tea party, whose existence can be attributed in part to a disgust by citizens over the growth of government and federal spending under George W. Bush, a Republican, and Obama, a Democrat. I believe in a lot of what the tea party believes in, Romney said. The tea party believes that governments too big, taxing too much, and that we ought to get to

his recently unveiled jobs program and yet the GOP debate was weirdly devoid of proposals for putting Americans back to work. Perry, ex-Massachusetts Gov. Romney and former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman argued about whose state produced the most or least jobs on their watch but offered virtually nothing in the way of a jobs plan for the country. At some point, it wont be enough to simply blame Obama for the unemployment problem; voters will expect the presidents opponent, whoever he or she may be, to offer a solution.

The F.M. Kirby Center is an architectural masterpiece that has stood the test of time, nestled in its corner on Public Square in downtown Wilkes-Barre. Though its now a shining beacon of arts-and-entertainment success, the road to this point was not always easy. We take a look back at the Kirby Center and how it became the venue we know and love today. In 1937 the M.E. Comerford 45movie theater chain, in Pennsylvania and New York, decided to station its flagship location where the Kirby Center stands today on Public Square. It would replace a bus terminal, a printing company, a stonecutter and a drugstore. On Aug. 18, 1938, the Comerford Movie Theater opened its doors to the public with a showing of the movie Alexanders Ragtime Band. In 1949, due to an anti-trust lawsuit, ownership of the Comerford Theater was transferred to the Penn Paramount Company. The building was then renamed the Paramount Theater. Due to economic hardship and the changing landscape of the cinema, with urban redevelopment after Tropical Storm Agnes in 1972, the Paramount closed its doors in late 1977. It was then transferred to a new owner and used as a venue for touring concerts and closed-circuit television boxing matches in the late 1970s and early 1980s. A remodel took place in an effort to accommodate various smallbusiness operations at the venue. The lobby was gutted, brass and

bronze door frames were cut, and curved-glass display cases and the brass and marble exterior ticket booth were removed. The building then fell into general disrepair. A group of local residents working under the name S.T.O.P. (Save The Old Paramount) were successful in having the building added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, but even so it remained nearly abandoned. In 1985 Albert Boscov, owner of one of the nations largest, privately owned department-store chains, Boscovs, along with August L. Simms, Fred M. Kirby II and the Kirby Foundation, put together a drive to raise the necessary $3.3 million for the acquisition and restoration of the theater. The Paramount Civic Center project launched on Dec. 21, 1985. It was renamed the F.M. Kirby Center. On Friday, Sept. 19, 1986, the Kirby Centers doors opened with a gala performance of the American Ballet Theatres premiere of its Celebration Tour and a performance by the Wilkes-Barre Ballet Theatre to Ravels Bolero. In 2005 the board of directors of the Kirby Center launched a $750,000 fundraising campaign titled, Take Your Seats, Please. This money went toward refurbishing sections of the theaters interior as well as improving technical capabilities. After four months of refurbishment, the F.M. Kirby Center for the Performing Arts offered an open house for the public on Sept. 29, 2006, with a screening of Alexanders Ragtime Band, the same film that opened the Comerford Movie Theater 68 years prior.

While this is true, the people who work behind the very stage that plays host to these acts should not be overlooked. This tight-knit team works around the clock to ensure everyone, from the audience to the artists themselves, has the best possible experience during their time at the Kirby. Though a single job title may be given to a staff member, its clear his or her duty goes beyond one definition.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Getting good news is like hooking a big fish. But for that to happen, youll have to cast your line. Enter contests, send out your resume, and make a play for the other exciting prizes in life. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You are not on the earth to judge and punish your fellow travelers. Sometimes their actions will frustrate and anger you, and in that case, youll put your energy into holding back and cooling off. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Someone will flirt with you. Maybe the advance is unwelcome, but you cant help but be flattered by the effort. Youll likely deflect the attention, careful not to get this persons hopes up. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your faith in a certain person knows no bounds. You feel certain that he or she will always come through and overcome that solutions are never far away. Transfer some of that faith to yourself, and youll be doing great. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You know when youre wasting your time, and yet sometimes you cant stop yourself. There is something so wonderfully compelling about going off track. In the end, this may prove a very successful diversion. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You may be a speck of dust on a speck of dust, and you may also be the center of the universe. Stand under the stars tonight, and try to feel the vast distance between you and galaxies that are 13 billion light years away. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You will be slow to commit and wisely so. Once you give your word, you are likely to follow through no matter what. Your attitude dictates the outcome. If anyone can make it happen, you can. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You are feeling so generous. If you could buy lunch for everyone in the room, you would. Youd even include dessert. What you cant do for everyone, youll at least do for someone. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your creativity will shine as you pull simple elements together to make something wonderfully, magically intricate. Not everyone around will understand what you are doing, but they will all sense the specialness of it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Success depends on applying your efforts faithfully. So dont lose heart. Keep symbols near to remind you what your work is all about. If you dont have such symbols, create them. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You have not always been encouraged to strive for excellence. But encouragement or not, there is something in you that urges you on to do whats good and right. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Its time for a new adventure. It starts with a daydream. Imagine yourself watching wild whales, hiking through the Everglades or touring ancient ruins. Daydream until you strike upon something truly worth pursuing. TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Sept. 18). A creative Mars transit on your birthday insists on gifting you with outrageous dreams and enormous powers of creativity. September and October bring the education you need to do a job right. Youll celebrate all the friendship and romance in your life in 2012. Aquarius and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 15, 39, 20 and 14.

Time for sister-in-law to hang sob story out to dry

Dear Abby: My brother Dan cheated on his wife, Darlene. His affair lasted five years before he dumped Darlene to pursue a relationship with the other woman. My problem is, every time family members invite Darlene and her children to be part of an event, we have to listen to her long, drawn-out monologue about Dans affair with that woman. I dont approve of Dans behavior, but I refuse to hate him because their marriage failed. Darlene has spent the last four years making sure her kids never see my brothers new wife or meet their half-siblings. I dont want to cut my nieces and nephews out of my life, because they need stability. But I dont care at this point if I ever see Darlene again. Any suggestions? Tired of the Sob Story Dear Tired: Because you cant control her, when Darlene starts her next refrain, excuse yourself. Let her entertain the rest of the family while you spend time with your nieces and nephews. Dear Abby: I have been married several years to an only child. Despite our objections, my mother-in-law, Diana, continues to treat my

husband, Rob, as though hes helpless and me as his equally incapable sidekick. I should have realized there was trouble when Diana and other in-laws came to visit us on our honeymoon unannounced and uninvited. Rob and I are responsible adults who work full time. We have never asked his parents for anything. I find her behavior insulting. I have done everything I can think of to remedy this, from having Rob speak to her to being frank with her myself. Aside from saying hello when I answer the phone, I choose to have no relationship with her. Am I being overly sensitive, or is Diana overstepping her boundaries? Married to An Only Child in Kentucky Dear Married To An Only Child: Because you and Rob have spoken frankly to her about this and her behavior persists, she strikes me as overbearing. Your best recourse may be to put geographic distance between you if and when its feasible.

I couldnt believe I was seeing him in person, added Johnsons wife, Louise Edwards, 67, who has admired the jazz great for years. This months headliner, who will kick off the 25th-anniversary season with a Sept. 30 concert, is Motown legend Diana Ross. We have about 20 tickets left, Kirby staffer Will Beekman said Tuesday. Thank God, said Santarelli, thrilled that so many patrons are willing to pay for tickets ranging from $79.50 to $99.50 to $125 for the big-name act. Other shows take a smaller bite from the wallet. You can see comedian Paula Poundstone and her ever-present can of Diet Pepsi on Oct. 14 for $19 to $29, for example, or the King Arthur spoof Monty Pythons Spamalot for $29, $49 or $59 on Oct. 15. Kid-friendly fare such as Max and Ruby, which stars a pair of bunny siblings, offer tickets at $19, $23 and $33, while the Haunted Illusion magic act is $15.50 for children and $25.50 for adults. The Young Peoples Theater tickets, for shows such as Charlottes Web on Jan. 30 and Alice in Wonderland on May 18, are $6.50 each. Were all about accessibility, Santarelli said, explaining the Kirby has given away hundreds of tickets, underwritten by donors and distributed to underserved families through social-service agencies. The United Way has been a big help with that, and Head Start. Sometimes, the Kirby sends artists into the community, too, as when magician Stephen Knight went to the John Heinz Institute and taught therapists some simple sleight-of-hand tricks they could use with their patients. Another time, a family-friendly act appeared on the small stage at Heights-Murray Elementary School in Wilkes-Barre. That saved them the hassles of transportation and permission slips, Santarelli said. The Kirbys gifts to the com-

There will be something scary for Halloween, something romantic for Valentines Day, etc. Proud of the depth and breadth of the 2011-2012 schedule, Santarelli said its part of the Kirbys mission to expose the region to classic opera, such as Teatro Lirico DEuropas version of La Boheme and straight (non-musical) plays such as the father/ daughter mathematical mystery Proof. Concerts such as the Philadelphia-based jam band The Disco Biscuits, who played the Kirby in 2010, or The Pink Floyd Experience tribute band, set for Feb. 21, attract audiences who might be a bit more rambunctious than the opera crowd, but theyre welcome, too. They tend to be enthusiastic, but they do behave, Santarelli said. I think people have respect for the Kirby Center, the executive director continued. Besides, if youre a 15- to 20-year-old person coming to a rock concert and the person who takes your ticket is a
white-haired, 80-year-old usher, what are you going to think? Hmm. That Grandma is here so youd better behave? Thats right, Santarelli agreed with a chuckle. Some of them are a little raucous. They like to get up and dance in the aisles, but they dont do any harm, said Kirby volunteer Alice Teufel, a Kingston grandmother who has been ushering people to their seats for at least eight years. You meet the coolest people. Its a great way to serve the area, and theres also the camaraderie. Plus, of course, the wonderful shows, she said, explaining she hopes to see Diana Ross later this month. There are so many good shows, she said, admitting a particular preference for the Philharmonics holiday show with its Christmas tunes and March of the Toy Soldiers. Its just so right. You think, yes, this is perfect. The volunteers do wonderful work, Santarelli said, and her staff consists of silent heroes. Theyre here from 6 a.m. on the day of a show to 1 oclock the next morning, she said, adding the group couldnt work so hard if it didnt live and breathe for the arts. And bringing the arts to everyone is what its all about. When we see a child, maybe someone who came here for the first time, leaving here with a smile from ear to ear, Santarelli said, thats our reward.

o many new series! Its like one of those years when half the Congress is voted out to be replaced by ... more Congress. Still, there are trends and changes to decry: to the usual surprising degree, great minds are thinking alike, small ones running in the same gutter. Three new shows have the word man in the title (four if we allow gentleman) and beyond them much discussion of the meaning of maleness, in and out of relationships. (Conversely, I am hearing the word vagina a lot it seems to be this years penis, joke-wise.) There are a lot of shows in which people move in with strangers, two in which fairy-tale characters inhabit the mortal world, a pair of post-feminist pre-feminist period pieces whose creators would undoubtedly deny having been influenced by Mad Men, two about doctors with a poor bedside manner. And its a big year for sitcoms, which makes the new season, genitally explicit humor notwithstanding, something like those of my youth. Heres a fairly thorough though unavoidably incomplete guide to whats coming:
Indefatigable Atlanta movie mogul Tyler Perry extracts two characters from his Why Did I Get Married? films sports commentator Michael Jai White and salon owner Tasha Smith, still asking that question for his third TBS sitcom. (One day thatll stand for Tylers Broadcasting System, doubtless.) The Exes TV Land, Nov. 30 Kristen Johnson (3rd Rock from the Sun) is the classic-sitcom tent pole supporting this fourth TV Land sitcom, as a divorce lawyer who foists needy client David Alan Basche upon roommates Donald Faison and Wayne Knight.

Darius Rucker, well-known for his work with rock band Hootie & the Blowfish, is now crossing into the country music genre.
Stand-up comedian Paula Poundstone is known for her ability to go with the crowd, causing many a show to be heavy on improvisation.
by Centers 20th anniversary five years ago and financed by a $750,000 Take Your Seats, Please campaign, the performing-arts center received a facelift, complete with 1,832 reconditioned, red-velvet seats, new carpeting and new hand-painted, gold-leaf wallpaper. I saw that wallpaper when they were working on it in New York, Taylor said. It was impressive. Long-time Kirby patrons may remember the gleaming gold wall paper replaces various shades of mauve that had been put up in 1986. If they look up at the Kirby ceiling, above the lobbys stunning chandelier, theyll see the ceiling was painted in a decorative style reminiscent of 1938 Art Deco. set up after graduating from college. She has worked with the arts all her life. Will Beekman, 33, Duryea Director of Marketing and Sales Beekman is one of the newest additions to the Kirby staff, having worked there for almost a year and a half now. Before his gig as director of marketing and sales, Beekman worked for the Wilkes-Barre/ Scranton Penguins and University Parks Bryce Jordan Center marketing departments. His job is to get people to the venue. I always simplify it as saying I put butts in seats, he joked, but its really so much more than that. Its making people aware that theres this gem on Public Square, this venue that is so different from others in the area. Beekman is proud of the variety of entertainment the Kirby Center can provide. We invest in our mission; we believe in bringing arts and education into the community and making it affordable and accessible.
And if they look down in certain areas where electrical cables used to run through, theyll see nothing. Today a handy trench runs the length of the floor from the backstage area to the rear of the house where soundboards are typically set up. The electrical cables go into the trench, reducing the possibility someone could trip over the necessary nuisances. Theyre 95 percent out of view, Taylor said, and out of harms way underneath the carpeting, in a trench. In the future, Santarelli said, shed like to see the building become even more energy-efficient. One thing to consider replacing would be the incandescent lighting that shines on the stage. Did you ever notice performers mopping their brows? Taylor asked. Even when the rest of the theater is cool, theyre perspiring under hot lights that dont need to be so hot, he said. Many times after a show (such as the opera) we get a note from someone thanking us for bringing something like that in because, they say, If not you, who? He cites one particular moment of calm that makes him love what he does. Its that moment when the lights go down before a show, he said. Theres so much that goes into bringing it all together thats unknown, and to see that all finally come together is amazing. Beekman calls the entire Kirby staff a welcoming family. You can yell over the wall to someone;youdontneedtopickup the phone. Everyone gets along really well. Every day someone sends out an email to see where we want to go to lunch. Were all very close, and that makes what we put out, as a whole and a venue, that much better.
STAFF
seen in the area, such as opera. Early on being here I had an idea that maybe we should try to present an opera, something weve never done before, Santarelli said. She decided on Porgy and Bess, an American opera she believed would be the easiest starting point. We had about 300 people come out for that show, she said. This last season we had an opera that pulled in 800, which is what we average for that type of show now. Its incredible. Thats cultivating an audience; thats what we want to do. We want people to look at a genre of entertainment theyve never experienced before and say Hey, maybe this is something Ill like. The most poignant moment in her Kirby career was when she visited the green rooms after a Broadway show left the venue and saw a note that read, Today is Tuesday, youre in Wilkes-Barre, PA. Here she gained an appreciation for the artist. On Wednesday and Thursday they were somewhere else; they had been somewhere else on Monday. It hit me that the life that theyre living is really hard. They go out there and perform every night at the top of their game. At that point I was still always so worried about providing things like roast chickens for them after the show, or whatever type of soda or potato chip they wanted. But then there was a paradigm shift where you begin to identify with
and appreciate the nature of the work these people do. The fact that they want a particular type of food is OK because, honestly, if Im on the road for 30 consecutive days sleepingonabusandmynextmeal is in a venues green room, well, thats not too much to ask for. Drew Taylor, 58, Dallas Director of Operations Taylor has taken care of visiting artists every need from catering and hotel accommodations to ground transportation. He also oversees in-house activity, such as the security staff for the night of a show and the upkeep of the facility itself. Theres a lot on my plate, but I enjoy all of it, he said. Theres something about this business that just grabs certain people, and Ive definitely been grabbed. Before coming to the Kirby center in June 2002, Taylor worked for 25 years with General Cinema Corporation as a general manager of movie theaters. It still gives me a thrill to see people come out of a show or a film, smiling and having interesting conversations about what they just saw. Its satisfying to watch people come out of a venue youre responsible for, knowing that theyre happy and they had a good time. A point in his Kirby career that sticksouthasnothingtodowithan entertainment act. Its about the 2004 visit of President Bush during the campaign, where Taylor spent a week dealing with the requirements of a campaign visit.
The Secret Service basically came in and took over the building, he said. It wasnt only the people on the presidents end, though; it was also the national media coming in via motor coach, the catering that had to be provided for them and the setup for their Internet and TV monitors. It was an overwhelming experience. Perhaps another, less stressful day was the one he spent with comedian Bill Cosby, who not only performed at the Kirby but gave a commencement speech at Wilkes before the show. It was something like10 a.m. to the end of the night when he was done with his shows that I got to spend time with him in his dressing room. Every time I would go to walk away hed say, Where are you going? Come sit down; lets talk. Hes very engaging, like his stage persona, and also very intelligent and entertaining. Anne Rodella, 32, Wilkes-Barre Box Office Manager Rodella started as a member of the box-office team 11 years ago and has since held many positions. She solidified her place as box-office manager five years ago. In this position, Rodella not only oversees the sale of the tickets but also serves as point woman when
setting up a show. She deals with incoming acts and nearly every department in the Kirby Center in a collaborative effort for each piece of entertainment. Before the tickets go on sale, nearly every department here has to speak to the box office, she said. In all of the hustle and bustle her job brings, Rodella cites one particular moment during her time at the Kirby that will always stand out to her: the 2006 renovation, a time when she herself was making a transition from the development department to the box office. I walked through the lobby, and there was absolutely no carpeting on the floor, no wallpaper on the walls; everything was completely bare, she said. To look into the theater and have not a single seat in there, just a big empty room, was unbelievable. The building itself is one of Rodellas favorite parts of her Kirby experience. I appreciate this building and my co-workers so much, she said. I get to work in a historic place, be a part of something that gives back to the community, and I work with wonderful people in order to get that done. Theres not much more I could ask for. Rodella also is the president of the Gaslight Theater Company, a theater group she and her friends

Mountain Lake two-story offers lakefront vistas

Story and Photos by Marianne Tucker Puhalla Advertising Projects Writer Pretty as a picture and perfect for enjoying all four seasons, this lakefront home at Mountain Lake in Bear Creek Twp. can be yours for the asking. Offering 2,200 square feet of space, this house has been remodeled throughout offering an ultra-modern granite and tile kitchen, tiled baths and walls of windows that make it easy to enjoy the picturesque setting. Listed by Jay Crossin of Crossin Real Estate for $329,900, this property at 475 East Ave. in the Meadow Run and Mountain Lake Park has been upgraded on the outside as well, and has a newly landscaped yard and a stone patio just right for enjoying the surroundings. The approximately 50-by-101 lot offers 50 feet of lake frontage. This home has tan vinyl siding and offers a one-car attached garage. A covered porch spans much of the front and leads inside to the 13-by-14 living room. You get the rst look at the new laminate wood ooring that starts here and leads rear to the expansive kitchen. To best envision the kitchen, you need to know that the entire rear wall of the homes rst oor, and much of the left side of the home is all windows. This means that from the kitchen, the dining area and the family room, you are offered a tremendous view of the lake and surrounding countryside. The kitchen has a peninsula breakfast bar and a large number of cabinets all offering a tan tiled oor and black and tan granite countertops punctuated by nearly new appliances, including a microwave, dishwasher, stove and refrigerator. The breakfast area of this kitchen has two full walls of windows and shares sliding doors to a rear patio with the nearby family room. This space is open to the kitchen and has a full wall of built-in shelves and cabinets that ank a marbletrimmed replace. The view from here is amazing. The laundry hook-ups are conveniently located just off the kitchen behind bi-fold doors. A rst oor bath has a walk-in shower, a white vanity and a white cultured marble sink. There is a single window to the side and a tan tiled oor. The nearby rst oor bedroom measures 10-by-12 and has cream carpeting Continued
