>> VOTE FOR ME. PLEASE: When last we left our

intrepid Republican presidential adventurers, they were
wading knee deep in the political jungles of Michigan and
Arizona, desperately seeking the fabled Lost Votes of
the Undecided. OK, maybe thats a bit dramatic, but the
battle for the GOP nomination will be waged in those two
states in primaries this Tuesday. Frontrunners Mitt Rom-
ney and Rick Santorum would love a sweep. Newt Gin-
grich would love if people remembered hes on the ballot.
>> LEAPS AND BOUNDS: To smart people who like
to use big words, 2012 is known as an intercalary year. To
the rest of us, its called a Leap Year. Feb. 29, which is this
Wednesday, is not really a big party day, just an extra day
wedged in after Feb 28th to make sure our calendar
doesnt get all screwy. Although, in some parts of the
British Isles, its a folk tradition that women may turn
the tables and propose marriage to a man on Feb.
29. So, if youre British and want to stay sin-
gle, well RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!
>> SUNNY DAYS : Thanks to Sesame
Street, learning has never been so warm
and fuzzy. And you can share in all this
warmness, fuzziness and learningness
this weekend when Sesame Street Live
1-2-3 Imagine! with Elmo & Friends takes
the stage at the Mohegan Sun Arena.
There will be dancing. There will be
singing. And there will be numbers. Oh
yes, there will be numbers! Shows
start Thursday and run until
Sunday.
>> AN EARLY BEGORAH: Aye, the winds of March
barely be blowin in, when Celtic rockers Gaelic Storm be
puttin on a show in the fair city o Wilkes-Barre this
Thursday. The lads will be singin their Irish drinking
songs at the F.M. Kirby Center, as a wee bit of a preview
for St. Pattys Day. Also appearing will be special guests
Enter The Haggis a quintet from Canada named
after a pudding made from sheeps liver and
oatmeal. Mmmmmm, haggis. The show starts
at 7:30 p.m.
>> SEUSS IS LOOSE: Spread the word,
north and south, tell every child, man and
moose, this Fridays a day to read out loud,
and celebrate the works of Dr. Seuss. Schools
across this great land, will have an event well
and planned. Its a double dose of fun coming
our way, its Read Across America and Dr.
Seusss very own birthday. So, put on your red,
striped hat, and open up this book or that, and read
to a child this Friday, if you want a smile to come
your way.

MARQUETTE, Mich. The question of
whether Mitt Romney is conservative enough to
deserve the Republican presidential nomination
regained center stage in the
GOP contest Sunday, with
Rick Santorum saying the for-
mer Massachusetts governor
fails the test.
Santorum urged Michigan
voters to turn the race on its
ear by rejecting Romney in
Tuesdays primary inhis native
state, in which Romney is
spending heavily to avoid an
upset. Santorum said Rom-
neys record is virtually identi-
cal to President Barack Oba-
mas on some key issues, espe-
cially mandated health cover-
age, making him a weak
potential nominee.
Why would we give away
the most salient issue inthis election? animpas-
sioned Santorumtold more than100 people in a
remote, snow-covered region of Michigans Up-
per Peninsula. Santorum, a former senator from
Pennsylvania, said he is the true conservative on
fiscal and social issues.
Romney rejected the claims.
The biggest misconceptionwouldbe that Im
a guy that comes fromMassachusetts and there-
fore I cant be conservative, Romney told Fox

fit for GOP

A proposed plan to phase out
the magisterial district court
based in Freeland would not take
effect until 2018, when the six-
year term of current District
Judge Gerald Feissner expires.
The plan fur-
ther calls for re-
alignments of
other magist-
erial districts to
even the num-
ber of case fil-
ings in each dis-
trict court.
Luzerne
County President Judge Thomas
F. Burke Jr. submitted the pro-
posedplanunder a directive from
the Administrative Office of
Pennsylvania Courts that is seek-
ing to eliminate 50 magisterial
districts in Pennsylvania.
There are currently 17 magist-
erial district courts in Luzerne
County, including Wilkes-Barre
Central Court, which hears pre-
liminary hearings for the two dis-
trict courts in Wilkes-Barre.
Under Burkes proposal, Ma-
gisterial District 11-3-05, held by
Feissner since 1982, will be elim-
inated and the caseload will be
absorbed by neighboring district
courts.
Other district courts will lose
municipalities that will be re-
aligned with other magisterial
districts.
For instance, the townships of
Pittston and Jenkins are current-
ly assigned to Magisterial Dis-
trict Court 11-3-08, held by Dis-
trict Judge Diana Malast, in

LOS ANGELES Academy
Awards voters have spoken up for
The Artist, the first silent film to
triumph at Hollywoods highest
honors since the original Oscar
ceremony 83 years ago.
The black-and-white comic melo-
drama took four prizes Sunday,
including best picture, actor for
Jean Dujardin and director for Mi-
chel Hazanavicius. Not since the
World War I saga Wings was
named outstanding picture at the
first Oscars in 1929 had a silent film
earned the top prize.
The other top Oscars went to
Meryl Streep as best actress for
The Iron Lady, Octavia Spencer as
supporting actress for The Help
and Christopher Plummer as sup-
porting actor for Beginners.
Streep, 62, won best actress for
her 17th Oscar nomination, the
most times any performer has been
nominated by the Academy.
Her third win put her in a cate-
gory with other three-time Oscar
winners Jack Nicholson, Walter
Brennan and Ingrid Bergman. Only
Katharine Hepburn with four wins
had more.
She joked about how many times
shes been up for actings highest
honors.
When they called my name, I
had this feeling I could hear half of
America going, Oh no... her
again,Streep said.
Streep played the British prime
minister as a senile retiree, as well
as a hectoring, dominant figure who
instilled fear and respect in her own
cabinet. At the films pinnacle,
Streep as Thatcher is the backbone
of a nation that goes to war over the
distant Falkland Islands after Argen-
tina invades in 1982.
She thanked her fans for this
inexplicable wonderful career and
paid special tribute to her husband,

DALLAS TWP. The more Misericordia Uni-
versity speech-language pathology professor
Hunter Manasco interacted with special-needs
children and those who provided care for them,
the more he heard concerns about their well-be-
ing and a high levels of abuse.
The potential for these young people to be
abusedwas at the forefront of everyones minds,
Manasco said.
Yet there were nobooks that he couldfindthat
could serve as a how-to educate guide for not on-

So he wrote one.

T
hat fresh-faced ingnue from The Artist, Pep-
py Miller, and the pierced and fierce revenge
seeker Lisbeth Salander from The Girl With the
Dragon Tattoo showed up for an Oscar party Sun-
day night, along with several dozen Hollywood glit-
terati types. Actually, Miller was a costumed Lori
Peters of Luzerne; Salander was a costumed Judi
Skiro of Luzerne and the rest of the beautiful peo-
ple were friends of Jayanne Czerniakowski, who
hosted the gathering in her Kingston home. I love
all the glamour and all the dresses, Debbie Beynon
of Courtdale said with a glance at one of two televi-
sions tuned in to the Academy Awards show. Ste-
phanie Skiro, center, interviews Peppy Miller at the
Oscar party.
sculptor Don Gummer.
Streep also called out for spe-
cial mention her other partner,
J. Roy Helland, who has done her
makeup since 1982 in Sophies
Choice, the movie that won
Streep her first best actress
award. Streep also won for best
supporting actress for the 1979
movie, Kramer vs. Kramer.
Makeup artist Helland also
won earlier in the night, sharing
the award for best makeup with
Mark Coulier.
The 82-year-old Plummer be-
came the oldest actingwinner ev-
er for his role as an elderly wid-
ower who comes out as gay in
Beginners.
Youre only two years older
than me, darling, Plummer said,
addressing his Oscar statue in
this 84th year of the awards.
Where have youbeenall my life?
I have a confession to make.
When I first emerged from my
mothers womb, I was already re-
hearsing my Oscar speech.
The previous oldest winner
was best-actress recipient Jessica
Tandy for Driving Miss Daisy,
at age 80.
Completing an awards-season
blitz that took her from Holly-
wood bit player to star, Spencer
won for her role in The Help as
a headstrong black maid whose
willful ways continually land her
in trouble with white employers
in 1960s Mississippi.
Spencer wept throughout her
breathless speech, in which she
apologized between laughing
and crying for running a bit long
on her time limit.
Thank you, academy, for put-
ting me with the hottest guy in
the room, Spencer said, refer-
ring to last years supporting-ac-
tor winner Christian Bale, who
presented her Oscar.
Her brash character holds a
personal connection: The Help
author Kathryn Stockett based
some of the womans traits on
Spencer, whom she met through
childhood pal Tate Taylor, the di-
rector of the film.
Before taking the stage, Spen-
cer got kisses from The Help
co-stars Viola Davis, a best-ac-
tress nominee, and Jessica Chas-
tain, a fellow supporting nomi-
nee.
Claiming Hollywoods top-
filmmaking honor completes Ha-
zanavicius sudden rise frompop-
ular movie-maker back home in
France to internationally cele-
brated director.
I am the happiest director in
the world, Havanavicius said,
thanking the cast, crew and ca-
nine co-star Uggie. I alsowant to
thank the financier, the crazy per-
son who put money in the mo-
vie.
Hazanavicius had come in as
the favorite after winning at the
Directors Guild of America
Awards, whose recipient almost
always goes on to claim the Os-
car.
The win is even more impres-
sive given the type of film Haza-
navicius made, a black-and-white
silent movie that was a throw-
back to the early decades of cine-
ma. Other than Charles Chaplin,
who continued to make silent
films into the 1930s, and Mel
Brooks, who scored a hit with the
1976 comedy Silent Movie, few
people have tried it since talking
pictures took over in the late
1920s.
The only other filmmaker from
France to win the directing Oscar
is The Pianist creator Roman
Polanski, who was born in
France, moved to Poland as a
child and has lived in France
since fleeing Hollywood in the
1970s on charges he had sex with
a 13-year-old girl.
Hazanavicius, known in his
home country for the OSS 117
spy comedies but virtually un-
heard of in Hollywood previous-
ly, won a prize that eluded half a
dozen of Frances most-esteemed
filmmakers, including Jean Re-
noir, Francois Truffaut and Louis
Malle, who all were nominated
for directing Oscars but never
won.
Martin Scorseses Paris adven-
ture Hugo won five Oscars, in-
cluding the first two prizes of the
night, for cinematography and
art direction. It also won for vi-
sual effects, sound mixing and
sound editing.
It was a great start for Scor-
seses film, which led contenders
with 11 nominations.
The Muppets earned the
best-song award for Man or
Muppet, the sweet comic duet
sung by Jason Segel and his Mup-
pet brother in the film, the first
big-screen adventure in 12 years
for Kermit the frog and company.
Filmmaker Alexander Payne
picked up his second writing Os-
car, sharing the adapted-screen-
play prize for the Hawaiian fam-
ily drama The Descendants
with co-writers Nat Faxon and
JimRash. Payne, who also direct-
ed The Descendants, previous-
ly won the same award for Side-
ways.
Woody Allen earned his first
Oscar in 25 years, winning for
original screenplay for the ro-
mantic fantasy Midnight in Pa-
ris, his biggest hit indecades. Its
the fourth Oscar for Allen, who
won for directing and screenplay
on his 1977 best-picture winner
Annie Hall and for screenplay
on 1986s Hannah and Her Sis-
ters.
Allen also is the record-holder
for writing nominations with 15,
and his three writing Oscars ties
the record shared by Charles
Brackett, Paddy Chayefsky, Fran-
cis Ford Coppola and Billy Wil-
der.
No fan of awards shows, Allen
predictably skippedSundays cer-
emony, where he also was up for
best director and Midnight in
Paris was competing for best
picture.

NOXEN -- From the outside,
the building doesnt look like
much: a one-story wood-frame
structure with a double-sloped
hip roof and deep bracketed
eaves that sits along S.R. 3002
and Bowmans Creek in Noxen.
In reality, the former Lehigh
Valley Railroad Depot is a very
important piece of history, and
its now considered at-risk.
The building has been
named as one among 10 state-
wide endangered resources as
a part of Preservation Pennsyl-
vanias 2011 Pennsylvania at
Risk List. According to Preser-
vation Pennsylvania, endanger-
ment is defined as a threat of
demolition, significant deterio-
ration, vandalism, alteration
and/or loss of its historic set-
ting. The Depot falls into this
category due to disuse and
vandalism.
A spot on the at-risk list is
actually helpful, as the purpose
of such a list is to draw atten-
tion to each resource in the
hope that action will be taken
to help further preserve them.
Over the past several years
the North Branch Land Trust,
or NBLT, a land conservancy
agency in Trucksville, has
helped begin the rehabilitation
process. While the building is
structurally sound, much work
is left to be done on the inside.
Along with the people of
Noxen, the NBLT formed the
All Aboard Committee, which
came up with recommenda-
tions on how to use the area. It
has been settled upon that itll
be utilized as a community
meeting space, an exhibit to
showcase local history, and a
prime destination along a pro-
posed Bowmans Creek Rail-
Trail.
The main repairs call for in-
stallation of a well, bathroom
upgrades, and septic and heat-
ing systems.
The Noxen Depot was con-
structed in 1893 by the Lehigh
Valley Railroad and, though
closed in 1963, its the last re-
maining structure on the line.

is a piece of area history thats considered to be at risk.
Entry into the NewYork City Marathon
is no walk in the park.
In 2011, 47,000 runners out of nearly
140,000 applicants were chosen to com-
pete in the Big Apples biggest competi-
tion.
But through a lottery-
styledrawing, theAllied
Services Foundation
will be reducing those
odds by giving one
lucky runner guaran-
teed entry into the 2012
ING New York City
Marathon, with pro-
ceeds benefiting Ryans
Run and children and
adults with disabilities.
Last year, 20 runners
from Northeastern PA
represented Ryan Leck-
eys Team Leckey, af-
ter the WNEP-TV re-
porter raised nearly
$230,000 for Allied Pro-
grams.
Jim Brogna, assistant
vice president of advan-
cement at Allied Servic-
es, said Leckey jumped
at theideatohelpalocal
charity when ap-
proached in 2010.
From the very first
day we connected with
him, it was a hit, Brogna said.
Thesuccessof thefirst fundraisingeffort
in 2010 helped Ryans Run secure bronze
charitystatus as well as several guaranteed
spots in the marathon.
To date, it is the only charity in Pennsyl-
vaniatobegivenbronzestatus bytheNYC
Marathon.
Other bronze charities involved in the
marathon include The American Red
Cross and the HarlemUnited Community
AIDS Center.
We were truly honored by the status,
Brogna said.
Every penny we raise goes towards ei-
ther patient care, clinical trainingor tonew
technology, he added.
Entry intothe race is extremely compet-
itive, with less than 5 percent of non-guar-
anteed applicants being selected.
Allied Services is greatly increasing the
odds of securing a spot inthe marathonby
limiting the number of those seeking
spots.
When140,000peopleapply, its youver-
sus 140,000 people, said Allied Services
Special Events Manager Charlotte Wright.
Only competing against runners in Pa.,
you have much better odds.
The 26.2-mile race has become one of
the most famous in the world since its in-
ception in1970.
Ahumble affair at the time, 170 runners
participated in the race that year with just
55 crossing the finish line.
Today, the race is broadcast to an audi-
ence of nearly 330 million people, with
morethan$33millionbeingraisedbychar-
ities such as Ryans Run.
What couldbebetter thanrunningfor a
local charity in the worlds largest foot
race? Brogna said.

As an astronaut, John Glenn was the
first American to orbit the Earth. He
went on to serve 24 years in the U.S.
Senate.
As far as finding his name on a book
preface he wrote so that he could sign
the page? Well, he had a little trouble.
What he wrote was on the left side
and he began signing on the right,
GlenLyonresident Harriet ClydeKipps
said. I said, John, youve orbited the
Earth and you cant find your name in a
book? He got a good laugh out of that
andwe jokedabout it. Thats the kindof
person he is. Very down-to-earth and
human; a good man.
Kipps, who has written several vol-
umes on and is a big proponent of vol-
unteerism, was speaking to Glenn as he
signed a book that Kipps wrote. Kipps
met Glenn for the first time in the early
1990s, while he was serving as senator.
She simply asked himif he would write
a preface for one of her books, and he
agreed it was as easy as that.
His words currently have a home in
two of her books, Volunteer America
and Volunteerism, both of which are
comprehensive guides to national op-
portunities for service, training and
work experience.
It was wonderful that someone like
him, who has done so much and is such
a recognized person, would endorse
such a thing, Kipps said. Its not even
about the book itself, just the idea of
volunteering, which I think is incredi-
bly important and needed in todays
world.
Kipps said the most striking thing
about her meeting with Glenn was the

U.S. soldiers remains IDd
T
he U.S military says it has identi-
fied the remains of the last Amer-
ican service member unaccounted for
in Iraq.
Staff Sgt. Ahmed Kousay al-Taie was
an Army interpreter who was born in
Iraq and lived in Ann Arbor, Mich. He
was kidnapped at gunpoint in October
2006 when he sneaked off base on a
motorcycle to visit his Iraqi wife in
central Baghdad.
The Army issued a statement Sun-
day saying that the militarys mortuary
in Dover, Del., had positively identified
a set of remains as belonging to al-Taie.
Army officials said they had no fur-
ther details on the circumstances sur-
rounding his death or the discovery of
his remains.
CAIRO
Trial of Americans goes on
Egypt pushed ahead Sunday with the
trial of 43 employees of pro-democracy
groups, including 16 Americans, even
as Egyptian and U.S. officials tried
behind the scenes to resolve the case
that has caused the deepest rift in their
alliance in 30 years.
In a sign those back-channel negotia-
tions may already be bearing fruit, only
Egyptian defendants attended the
hearing and the judge gave no instruc-
tions to police to ensure the American
and other foreign defendants attend
the next hearing in two months. The
43 are charged with using illegal for-
eign funds to foment unrest that has
roiled Egypt over the past year. None
of the Americans appeared in court for
the hearing.
The United States has threatened to
cut off aid to Egypt over the crackdown
on the nonprofit groups.

immediate plans for arrests.
Police said Saturday night the girl

with another 11-year-old girl.
Police are urging caution about link-
ing the fight to the girls death pending
a coroners report.

BP trial delayed a week
A judge is pushing back the federal
trial over the nations worst offshore oil
disaster by a week, saying Sunday that
BP PLC was making some progress in
settlement talks with a committee
overseeing scores of lawsuits, accord-
ing to people close to the case.
Two people close to the case said the
decision was made Sunday during a
conference call between parties in the
case and U.S. District Judge Carl Bar-
bier. They spoke on condition of ano-
nymity because they were not autho-
rized to discuss the call.
They said the judge told those on the
call that BP and the Plaintiffs Steering
Committee were making some
progress in their settlement talks. The
steering committee is overseeing law-
suits filed by individuals and busi-
nesses in the wake of the explosion on
the Deepwater Horizon rig on April 20,
2010, in the Gulf of Mexico.

PITTSBURGH Crews cleared wrecked and
stranded vehicles from a nine-mile stretch of Inter-
state 80 in western Pennsylvania on Sunday, which re-
opened a day after sudden whiteout conditions led to
chain-reaction crashes involving 50 to 70 vehicles.
Three people were killed.
They were identified Sunday as Michael Maluk, 70,
of Greenville, and a married couple, Robert and Rita
Duffy of the Pittsburgh suburb of West View, accord-
ing to Venango County Deputy Coroner Chris Hile.
Weather Service said. The interstate is known for rap-
idly changing conditions when winter weather blows
through, Hile said.
Ive been here for 30 years, we get these sudden
snowsqualls across the I-80 corridor, and driving con-
ditions can change in a matter of minutes, sometimes
in a matter of seconds, Hile said.
I always say its not a problem until somebody
has to stop suddenly.
Interstate80was closeduntil earlySundaymorning
when the eastbound lanes reopened. The westbound
lanes, where most of the crashed occurred, reopened
about 11:30 a.m. Sunday.
Aseparate pileup on Interstate 79 involving 30 pas-
senger vehicles and two commercial trucks began
about noon Saturday just a few miles north of I-80.
Maluk and the Duffys, who were in their 50s, were
in cars that slid or skidded out of control before each
was hit by a larger commercial truck. The truck that
hit the Duffys came to rest on their vehicle, Hile said.
Robert Duffy was an assistant middle school principal
at a school in the Franklin Regional School District
near Pittsburgh.
The crashes began about 2:20 p.m. Saturday on a
stretch of the highway primarily between the Bar-
kleysville and Clintonville exits, about 55 miles north
of Pittsburgh and just a fewmiles east of Interstate 79,
western Pennsylvanias main north-south highway.
Only 3 to 4 inches of snow had fallen in the area
since Friday night, but much of it fell suddenly when
winds of up to 35 mph whipped lake-effect snows
through the area Saturday afternoon, the National

KABUL, Afghanistan Demonstra-
tors hurled grenades at a U.S. base in
northern Afghanistan, and a gun battle
left two Afghans dead and seven NATO
troops injured Sunday in the escalating
crisis over the burning of Muslim holy
books at an American airfield.
More than30people have beenkilled,
including four U.S. troops, in six days of
unrest. Still, the top U.S. diplomat in Af-
ghanistan said the violence would not
change Washingtons course .
Tensions are running very highhere,
and I think we need to let things calm
down, return to a more normal atmo-
sphere, and then get on with business,
Ambassador Ryan Crocker told CNNs
State of the Union.
This is not the time to decide that
were done here, he said. We have got
to redouble our efforts. Weve got to cre-
ate a situation in which al-Qaida is not
coming back.
The attack on the base came a day af-
ter two U.S. military advisers a lieu-
tenant colonel and a major were
found dead after being shot in the head
in their office at the Interior Ministry in
the heart of the capital. The building is
one of the citys most heavily guarded
buildings, and the slayings raised
doubts about safety as coalition troops
continue their withdrawal.
The incident prompted NATO, Bri-
tain and France to recall hundreds of in-
ternational advisers from all Afghan
ministries in the capital. The advisers
are key to helping improve governance
and preparing the countrys security
forces to take on more responsibility.
A manhunt was under way for the
main suspect in the shooting an Af-
ghan man who worked as a driver for an
office on the same floor as the advisers
who were killed, Interior Ministry
spokesman Sediq Sediqi said. He did
not provide further details about the
suspect or his possible motive.
The Taliban claimed that the shooter
was one of their sympathizers and that
an accomplice had helped him get into
the compound to kill the Americans in
retaliation for the Quran burnings.
Afghanistans defense and interior
ministers were to visit Washington this
week, but they called off the trip to con-
sult with other Afghan officials and reli-
gious leaders on how to stop the vio-
lence, Pentagon press secretary George
Little said. The Afghan officials had
plannedtomeet withDefenseSecretary
Leon Panetta and Joint Chiefs Chair-
man Gen. Martin Dempsey.

DAMASCUS, Syria Sy-
rias authoritarian regime held
a referendum on a new consti-
tutionSunday, agesturebyem-
battled President Bashar As-
sad to placate those seeking
his ouster. But the opposition
deemed it an empty gesture
and the West immediately dis-
missed the vote as a sham.
Even as some cast ballots for
what the government has tried
to portray as reform, the mili-
tary kept up shelling of the op-
position stronghold of Homs,
which has been under attack
for morethanthreeweeks after
rebels took control of some
neighborhoods there. Activists
and residents report that hun-
dreds havebeenkilledinHoms
in the past few weeks, includ-
ing two Western journalists.
The Red Cross spokesman
said the humanitarian group
had been unable to enter the
besieged Homs neighborhood
of Baba Amr since Friday, de-
scribing the humanitarian
needs there as very urgent.
Activist groups said at least
29 people were killed on Sun-
day, mostly in Homs. At least
89 were reported killed on Sat-
urday alone, one day before the
referendum. Activists estimate
close to 7,500 people have
been killed in the 11 months
since the Assadregimes brutal
crackdown on dissent began.
Secretary of State Hillary
Rodham Clinton called Sun-
days vote a cynical ploy.
Its a phony referendum,
andit is going to be usedby As-
sadtojustifywhat hes doingto
other Syrian citizens, she said
inaninterviewwithCBSNews
in Rabat, Morocco.
Clinton called on Syrians in
business and the military who
still support Assad to turn
against him.
The longer you support the
regimes campaign of violence
against your brothers and sis-
ters, the more it will stain your
honor, she said. Other coun-
tries also lambasted the vote.

American forces are now
manning a new radar defense
site in Turkey that could help
defend Europe from a poten-
tial Iranian ballistic missile at-
tack, the U.S. Armys com-
mander in Europe said Sun-
day.
We have the forces in place
... at a radar site in southern
Turkey, Lt. Gen. Mark Her-
tling said in an interview at
Montenegros main military
airport in its capital.
It is the first time a senior
U.S. commander has con-
firmed reports that the NATO
defense shield radar which
has caused tensions between
Turkey and its Muslim neigh-
bor Iranhas beenoperation-
al in the past few weeks. The
radar is a key element in a
planned ballistic missile de-
fense system that also would
put other land- and sea-based
radars and anti-missile inter-
ceptors in several European lo-
cations over the next decade.
I can only speak for the
groundbase air defense units,
Hertling said. Buy I will tell
you that we make constant co-
ordination (with the U.S. Navy
and Air Force), and I think we
are well on track to conduct
missile defense.
The deal with Turkey last
year to station the sophisticat-
ed radar on its territory was
hailed by U.S. officials as the
most significant military coop-
eration agreement between
the U.S. and Turkey, NATOs
biggest Muslimmember, since
2003, when Turkey angered
American officials by refusing
toallowanarmoreddivisionto
cross Turkish territory to join
the invasion of Iraq.
Tensions between the West
and Iran have risen in recent
months over Tehrans nuclear
program. Iran denies Western
claims it seeks to develop
atomic weapons.

Iranian missiles on track

PITTSBURGH Twenty-one
of the 23 highest-paid employees
at the State Correctional Institu-
tion-Pittsburgh are guards or ser-
geants whomademorethantheir
supervisors last year by earning
leave pay, shift differentials and
massive amounts of overtime, a
newspaper reported Sunday.
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
report is based on pay records ob-
tained through a right-to-know
request from the Pennsylvania
Department of Corrections,
which show the top earner at the
prison last year was a guard
whose base salary is $51,000 but
who collected $139,571 because
of extra pay, including $75,000
worth of overtime. Meanwhile,
the best-paid captain at the same
prison ranked 50th on the high-
est-paid list by earning less than
$88,000.
Lawmakers and state correc-
tions officials acknowledge those
disparities are causing problems,
including the perception that
promotions dont pay.
When you have good quality
officers who are not even willing
to take the test (to become a lieu-
tenant) because they dont want
to take a pay cut in a promotion,
what happens thenis perhaps the
people who do get promotions
arent the best qualified, said
state Sen. DavidArgall, R-Sckuyl-
kill. He is pushing a bill to ensure
commissioned officers with the
rank of lieutenant or above are
paid more than the guards they
supervise.
Roy Pinto, president of the
guards union, the Pennsylvania
State Corrections Officers Asso-
ciation, said understaffing is fuel-
ing the extra overtime.
Id like to see the prisons
staffed properly so the overtime
was minimal, as opposed to the
rampant overtime thats out
there, Pinto said.
State corrections spokeswo-
man Susan McNaughton told the
paper that the states prisons are
properly staffed but acknowl-
edged we can run short of staff if
we have vacant positions, long-
term absences or a higher-than-
expected rate of call-offs.
Statewide, overtime for guards
has increased in recent years to
$50 million and the 679 employ-
ees of the Pittsburgh prison
earned $5.5 million worth of
overtime last year out of the pris-
ons entire $31.7 million payroll.
A typical sergeant at the prison
earned about $21,000 more than
the typical lieutenant, according
to the records obtained by the
newspaper.
The situation is so lopsided
that some lieutenants have de-
manded demotions to sergeant
to make more money. A group of
supervisors called the Commis-
sioned Officers Association calls
them voluntary demotions and
McNaughton acknowledges the
department is awareof thosecon-
cerns.
Pinto said its contract directs
that overtime shifts be distrib-
uted fairly on a rotating basis so a
handful of guards dont collect
the lions share of overtime.

DOYLESTOWN Copper
thefts, an increasing problem re-
ported by municipalities across
Pennsylvania, are also costing
the Philadelphia-area transit sys-
tem a half-million dollars every
year, officials said.
Last week, copper thieves stole
5-foot sections of copper wire
from the tracks of the Southeast-
ern Pennsylvania Transportation
Authoritys Broad Street line.
The overnight theft Monday
didnt hamper service because
buses are used instead of trains
during those hours, SEPTA spo-
keswoman Jerri Williams told
The (Doylestown) Intelligencer.
Andrew Gillespie, the agen-
cys chief engineer for power,
said copper thieves are costing
the authority $500,000 annual-
ly. Hesays theBroadStreet line
thieves risked electrocution by
going onto the tracks and cut-
ting the lines from blocks used
for the signalization of the sys-
tem.
Gillespie says hard econom-
ic times and the high price of
copper has prompted the in-
creasing number of thefts.
On Friday, police in eastern
Pennsylvania said a man was
caught sawingthroughlive sig-
nal wires along Amtrak lines in
Chester County. Gillespie re-
cently testified in a Montgom-
ery County felony case stem-
ming from a Sept. 29 arrest in
cut SEPTA wires that disrupt-
ed train service.
Williams said the agency
wants law enforcement offi-
cials to understand that such
cases are about not only the
cost of the materials but the
impact on the systemand com-
muters.
Gillespie said the authority
is taking steps to reduce thefts
on its own, marking all of its
copper and informing scrap
dealers to be on the lookout for
any materials brought to them.
No one is going to want to
steal it if thereis noplacetosell
it, he said.
SEPTA will begin spraying
wires with a chemical that will
become visible under a fluores-
cent light and will stick to the
hands of anyone who handles
it. Williams likened the idea to
placing dye packs in money
bags during a bank robbery.
Copper theft is costing
Philly transit big bucks
Hard economic times and the
high price of copper are
blamed for thefts.

way in which he treated her son.
When the book published, I
went to see him to deliver a spe-
cial leather-bound copy and my
son, Glenn, was my escort.
Well, Glenn was in the military
service, as John was, and to
watch the two of them hit it off
was wonderful. To see them
laughing, hands flying, really
enjoying each other, was heart-
warming.
Kipps said the former Marine
pilots warm character was fur-
ther reinforced two years later,
when he saw her on the street
and called her by name.
His mind is like a steel trap, I
was so delighted. He is a genu-
ine hero, not only for his per-
sonal achievements, but he
does not take lightly his associ-
ation with those of us lucky
enough to cross his path.
Though Kipps has met many
prominent public figures
throughout the years who sup-
ported her writings and ideas
on volunteerism, she said the
most astonishing thing to her is
that they were all simply hu-
man.
Theyre like me and you,
she said. Barbara Bush, who al-
so wrote a preface in one of my
books, actually rang me on the
telephone to tell me she put a
signed copy of the book in the
mail. Barbara Bush took the
time to do that.
Currently, Kipps is in the
middle of writing pieces for her
Super Volunteer Club Myster-
ies series, geared toward chil-
dren. Her next book, A Tri-
umph Over Pain, will be re-
leased within a month.

apart from the rest.
Nat said the children keep the
money they raise from selling
lemonade, but are encouraged
to spend a little, save a little and
give a little back to the commu-
nity.
The program is designed to
give children an opportunity to
discover the skys the limit,
Mosluk said.
Currently, designated sites
are Kirby Park in Wilkes-Barre,
The Rock Recreation Center in
Trucksville and the Pittston
YMCA. More sites might be
added, depending on the num-
ber of children, sponsors and
partners, he said.
Nat said he hopes to have
1,000 children register for the
first NEPA Lemonade Day. He
said the Pittston YMCA has
adopted the program and is
looking for more organizations
to step forward.
The programdoes not have to
be run by an organization; par-
ents can work one-on-one with
their children through the pro-
gram, Mosluk said.
The program is on its pilot
run, she said. She added it nor-
mally takes about four to six
weeks tocompletetheacademic
workbooks, but children can
work on it a little every day and
still have time to complete the
lessons.
We are late in the game; it
usually takes a year to orga-
nize, Mosluk said. But the
flood and then the holidays de-
layed us.
Nat saw Lemonade Day high-
lighted in an article in the Wall
Street Journal. It beganinHous-
ton in 2007, he said.
Being an entrepreneur him-
self, he sawvalue inthe program
and visited Houston to learn
more. While there, he talked
withchildrenandevent organiz-
ers andheardsomeamazingsto-
ries of children working hard to
run their business to earn mon-
ey for college or wanting to save
for other future endeavors.
Sure, it wouldbe great if they
could work for a large employer,
but there is not a lot of security
in that anymore, Nat said.
Whether it is a Fortune 500
company or a mom-and-pop
store, the skills they learn are
universal.
LEMONADE
WILKES-BARRE There were
a couple of reasons why leek soup
was on the menu for the St. Da-
vids Day dinner Sunday night.
Its tasty and the plant is one of
the national symbols of Wales
whose people
worldwide will
honor their pa-
tron saint, Da-
vid, on Thurs-
day.
Far away from the country bor-
dered on the east by England and
the Irish Sea on the west and a
fewdays aheadof the March1cel-
ebration, approximately 100 peo-
ple attended the 133rd annual
banquet held by the St. Davids
Society of Wyoming Valley Inc. at
the Genetti Hotel & Convention
Center.
They sang hymns and songs in
their nativeWelshandheardfrom
featured speaker Luzerne County
Judge William Amesbury, who
dug up some history on the leek.
Welsh soldiers wore leeks to
distinguishthemselves fromtheir
enemies dressed in the same garb
on the battlefield, said Amesbury.
Instead of leeks on their lapels,
some men at the dinner wore daf-
fodils, only because they had no
lilies, another symbol of Wales,
added the judge.
St. David, or Dewi Sant as he is
known in Welsh, died on March1
in 589, said Amesbury. I was
amazed as I read about him, he
said. The bishop was a rallying
point, a unifying force in the
Welsh resistance, against the in-
vading Normans and English.
Amesbury pointed out many
notable and historical figures in
the United States claimWelsh an-
cestry, including Abraham Lin-
coln, Thomas Jefferson, John
Adams, Howard Hughes, Ogden
Nash, Jasper Jack Daniels and
Charles Evans Hughes, the 11th
chief justice of the United States.
The man was a talent, a true
political figure, an intellectual gi-
ant, he said of Hughes, the focus
of muchof Amesburys 20-minute
address.
Born in 1862, Hughes was a
precocious child, learning to read
at the age of 3, mastering Greek
at 8 and graduating from high
school when he was13, according
to Amesbury. When his parents
were considering adopting a
child, Hughes told them, A qual-
ity education is far more impor-
tant to have than a playmate,
said Amesbury.
Hughes left a highly successful
law practice and sought elected
office because his ambition was
to serve, said Amesbury.
Hughes served as governor of
NewYork, was twiceappointedto
the U.S. Supreme Court, and was
among the justices who opposed
President Franklin Delano Roose-
velts attempt to pack the court in
an effort to get through his New
Deal programs, said Amesbury.
Hughes retired fromthe bench in
1941 and died in 1947.
Amesbury admired the com-
mitment Hughes had to service
and urged the members of the au-
dience to pass on the pride of
their Welsh heritage to younger
generations.
Newly appointed society Presi-
dent Anthony T.P. Brooks was
committed to the task.
My goal, my hope for us is to
be evangelists for St. David, said
Brooks.

It was a hard moment for the
president to get out of.
Mick Jagger
The Rolling Stones frontman said President Obama
did very well when bluesman Buddy Guy
successfully prodded him to join in on a few lines of
Sweet Home Chicago. Jagger and other blues greats played the East
Room on Tuesday as part of an In Performance at the White House
concert that will air tonight on PBS.
THROUGHOUT MOST of
February, the symbols of
Valentines Day were every-
where. Hearts, red roses,
chocolates and jewelry sales
were simply hard to miss.
As I saw these images, I
thought about the inspiring words from Nor-
man Vincent Peale, the guru of positive think-
ing, who once told us to throw your heart
over the fence and the rest will follow.
Rev. Peale was reminding us about the
power of having genuine passion and commit-
ment. Following our hearts will change lives
ours and others.
Like roses and chocolates on Valentines
Day, passion and commitment within the
social service network of our community are
hard to miss.
In the last few weeks, dozens and dozens of
applications from area nonprofit agencies
have come into the United Way office, all
seeking funding to help meet our communi-
tys most pressing needs. In anticipation of
human service budget cuts at the state level
for the fourth year in a row, United Way fund-
ing is as important now as it ever has been.
Implied in each application are the needs of
real people, the potential to change lives and
the hope of a better, stronger community for
all of us.
Without question, the agencies that submit
these applications have thrown their hearts
over the fence. Every day, despite limited
resources, they do what they do with passion
and commitment.
The programs that are funded with contri-
butions to the United Way do change lives.
These dollars helped Nancy, who was escap-
ing abuse, find safety and support at Domes-
tic Violence Service Center. They helped
Shivon, a child with Down syndrome, com-
municate and socialize at the Pittston YMCA.
United Way funding also is helping Andrea, a
client at Wyoming Valley Alcohol and Drug,
overcome addiction and complete schooling;
and it is helping Dolores, a 76-year-young
grandmother, remain active and independent
by providing her access to Volunteers of
Americas Dial-A-Driver program.
This is only a sampling of the work funded
by the United Way. While the stories of ser-
vice are countless, each is meaningful. Many
factors contribute to these successes, but they
all have in common the passion and commit-
ment of donors, volunteers and service pro-
viders who work every day to improve our
community.
As the pending state budget cuts threaten
to further reduce funding for local human
services, the United Ways of Wyoming Valley
and Greater Hazleton are holding a town
hall meeting from 2 to 4 p.m. March 8 at
Burke Auditorium on the campus of Kings
College, Wilkes-Barre.
State and county funding decisions will be
crucial this year. The state is proposing a 20
percent reduction in spending in a block
grant approach, which is to provide greater
flexibility in how the dollars are used. The
agencies that might be impacted by these
changes, consumers and the public are invited
to the informational town hall meeting.
While the funding cuts are expected to
bring changes to the social service sector and
a reduction of services in some areas is prob-
able, what is likely not to change are the
passion and commitment with which our
community serves those in need and one
another. There will be more powerful stories
to tell.
It seems to me that for so many, the heart
is already over the fence the rest are invited
to follow.
Passion, commitment and your support fuel United Way

HEN THE COLD
War ended more
than two decades
ago, the shadowof
nuclear catastrophe lifted on
both sides of the Iron Curtain.
This year, that era of relative
comfort could well draw to a
close; alternatively, the Wests
efforts to prevent that from
happening could trigger a cri-
sis of such gravity that count-
less millions will be affected.
If that sounds like an alar-
mist prognosis, consider the
situationinIran. Despite anev-
er-tightening net of economic
sanctions not to mention a
covert campaign of sabotage
Iranis drawinginexorablyclos-
er to achieving the ability to
build nuclear weapons. At the
last count, 6,208 centrifuges
were enriching uraniuminside
a previously secret plant at Na-
tanz. Irans scientists soon
might be able to present their
countrys obdurate and ruth-
less leaders with an invulnera-
ble means of constructinga nu-
clear arsenal.
As William Hague, the Brit-
ish Foreign Secretary, warns in
his interviewwiththis newspa-
per, any such decision on the
part of the regime would trig-
ger a new Cold War in the
MiddleEast without, necessar-
ily, all the safety mechanisms.
As Hague makes clear, the
window to avoid this outcome
is closing. Yet destroying Irans
nuclear installations would
trigger a war that could esca-
late into a regional conflagra-
tion, threatening the global
economy by causing oil prices
to soar. The risks attached to
military actionare suchthat no
government presently favors
this option; even Israels offi-
cial positionremains that sanc-
tions should still be given time
to work.

WORLD OPINION
Time is running out
to halt new Cold War
C
HINA IS PUTTING
fleshonthe bones of its
commitment to work
together with the Eu-
ropean Union to address the
evolving European sovereign
debt crisis.
Both President Hu Jintao and
Premier Wen Jiabao assured vis-
itingEUleaders that thecountry
supports global efforts to back
the eurozone and Europe. On
Feb. 15, Chinas central bankalso
pledged it will increase its hold-
ingsof euro-denominatedassets.
Chinas willingness to help
clearly goes far beyond rhetoric.
And the reason is more than ob-
vious as the two sides rank
among each others top trade
partners andChinais eager todi-
versify its portfolio of foreign ex-
change reserves.
However, while such external
support is important if Europe is
to survive the ongoing debt cri-
sis, it is unrealistic to expect too
much of such help.
The eurozone must come up
with a credible long-term solu-
tion of its own.
Admittedly, debt-laden coun-
tries should be held accountable
for their rapid accumulation of
debt, which was enabled by the
creation of the single currency
market more than a decade ago.
But that does not mean EU pol-
icymakers can ignore the diffi-
cult and painful task of imple-
menting fiscal consolidation
plans.

ANY YEMENIS are
rightly questioning
whether the Feb. 21
vote constitutes the
democratic future they have
fought for, and in others cases,
died for; whether this is really
the promised end to Ali Abdul-
lah Salehs 33-year rule.
Over ayear after Yemenis first
took to the streets to demand
political reform, the country
went to the polls in an uncon-
testedelectioninwhichex-Pres-
ident Salehs deputy was the
sole candidate.
In a deal signed late last year
and brokered by Gulf states in
Saudi Arabia, where Saleh was
recovering from wounds sus-
tained in a rocket attack on his
palace, the former president
agreedtotransfer power toAbd-
Rabbu Mansour Hadi.
While Hadi has vowedto ush-
er in major reforms, including
the drafting of a new constitu-
tion and a reorganization of the
army, the country faces many
great challenges, and coupled
with Hadis ascendancy to pow-
er inawaymanyviewasundem-
ocratic, it is unclear as to what
the next few years will hold.
Coupled with endemic cor-
ruption, none of these signs
point towarda stable, democrat-
ic or prosperous Yemen.

Breast-feeding in public
should be supported
T
here is a life-sized statue in Toronto by
Czech-born, Canadian sculptor Lea
Vivot titled The Endless Bench. It
portrays two women in conversation, seat-
ed on a circular bench. One woman is
pregnant and the other is nursing her baby.
At their feet, in the middle of the circle,
two children play in the sand.
Mothers are welcomed to sit next to the
sculptures and nurse their babies while
they are inspired by the messages carved
into the surface of the bench. This sculp-
ture reminds us all that acceptance of
public breast-feeding can facilitate women
enjoying community while easily and nat-
urally accomplishing the work of meeting
their childrens needs.
The recent nurse-ins at Target stores
have brought renewed attention to the
topic of breast-feeding in public. There are
two main reasons why cultural acceptance
of breast-feeding in public is an important
factor to facilitate breast-feeding initiation
and duration. When a woman is not com-
fortable breast-feeding in public it can be
harder for her to breast-feed exclusively for
six months and at least until a babys first
birthday, as recommended. Restricting
excursions or pumping milk for bottles,
two options open to this mother, are both
solutions that can limit the breast-feeding
relationship.
The second reason has to do with a
babys right to be fed when he or she be-
comes hungry or needs comfort. It is not
uncommon to see a baby feeding from a
bottle or being soothed with a pacifier in a
public place. Even if a mother and her baby
are in public, a breast-fed baby, like his
formula-fed counterpart, has a right to be
fed and comforted.
For more information on how breast-
feeding can work for you and your baby,
contact the Luzerne County Breastfeeding
Coalition at (570) 808-5534.
The coalition is comprised of repre-
sentatives from Northeastern Pennsylvania
whose mission is to establish breast-feed-
ing as the cultural norm in our community.

Whatever you call it,
its money we owe
F
ormer Luzerne County Commissioner
Steve Urban stated at a recent council
meeting that the levee tax on 11 com-
munities is not a tax, but a fee.
The water company states the $19.99 on
my bill is a surcharge. My energy provider
says this is a gross receipt sales tax. Ten
excise taxes appear on the phone bill, not
an exercise tax.
The new county council just raised taxes
by 2 percent, so I can share with my neigh-
bor the cost of services. The county
government will give a grant to those who
apply, but its not tax money or a fee; its a
grant.
All of these different names for money
derived from the people are enough to
make one dizzy.

lishers in London and is slated to

In a sad way, the timing
couldnt be better for Manasco.
WiththeJerrySanduskysexual
abuse allegations attracting wide-
spread media interest, child
abuse is at the forefront of many
peoples minds as the details of
the case continue tobe made pub-
lic. The retired Penn State defen-
sive coordinator is accusedof mo-
lesting at least 10 boys through a
charity he founded called The
Second Mile.
Its unfortunate that you have
this situation, but if you can use it
to educate people and reduce the
risk of this happening again, then
its fortunate, Manasco, of Dallas
Township, said.
He said the publisher, sensing
the connection to the Sandusky
case and the relevance of the
book, has pushed the publication
date up three to four months.
Theyre moving fast on this,
Manasco said, noting that the
book was written five years ago
but sat on a shelf waiting for his
wife, Katharine, to illustrate the
part of the book geared toward
children.
The 80-page paperback book
has two sections.
One, the shorter of the two, is
geared toward adults, parents,
teachers, counselors andother ca-
regivers. The second, composed
of nearly 60 illustrated pages, is
geared for adults to read to chil-
dren as an educational tool.
Manasco said studies have
found that abuse among children
with disabilities is exponentially
higher than among regular peers,
about three or four times the rate.
And if the child has autism, the
rates are seven times higher than
a non-special-needs child, he said.
Mostly, Manasco said, the
abuse is prevalent because they
dont know what is and isnt ap-
propriate or what to do if they do
know.
Theyre basically just sitting
ducks, Manasco said.
They are possibly the most
vulnerable children outside of in-
fants, saidtheprofessor, whohas
written one prior book on behav-
ior modification techniques for
children with autism and other
neurological disorders who dis-
play aggression and tantrum be-
havior.
Sanduskys trial is tentatively
scheduled to start in May ,and its
not clear if any of the alleged vic-
tims were mentally or physically
handicapped.
Manasco saidthe book, though
geared toward children with de-
velopmental disabilities, can still
be used as a resource for all youth
who may not understand what
kind of touching is right or
wrong, what kindof interactionis
appropriate or inappropriate.

Burke proposed moving Jen-
kins and Pittston townships to
Magisterial District Court 11-1-
04, based in Pittston city, the seat
for which has been vacant since
Jan. 1, when Fred Pierantoni III
became a county judge. Senior
District Judge Andrew Barilla
has been handling judicial duties
at the Pittston-based district
court.
The vacant district judge seat
in Pittston will be on the ballot in
2013. AttorneyMarkSinger, a for-
mer assistant district attorney
and current public defender, and
Arthur Bobbouine, Luzerne
County deputy prothonotary,
have expressed interest in cam-
paigning for the vacant seat.
Several wards in Wilkes-Barre
will be reassigned from Magist-
erial District Court 11-1-02, cur-
rentlyheldbyDistrict JudgeMar-
tin Kane, to Magisterial District
Court11-1-01, heldbynewlyelect-
ed District Judge Rich Cronauer.
Despite the proposed plan to
phase out the Freeland-basedma-
gisterial district, Feissner said he
remains optimistic.
This is a proposed plan that
doesnt take effect until 2018,
Feissner said. Changes can
come at any time. Its just a pro-
posal. Imgoing to continue to do
the job for the next six years.
It is possible this may not take
effect for a number of years, not
more than six years out, Burke
said about the proposed plan.
There may be the likelihood of
other opportunities to present it-
self during that interim.
Feissners courtroomis located
inside the Freeland Municipal
Building. Rent for the courtroom
and offices is $10,500, according
to the Luzerne County 2012 bud-
get.
The last realignment for ma-
gisterial districts in the county
took place in 2004 after the death
of Edwardsville District Judge
John Hopkins. His district was
absorbedinto three other magist-
erial districts.
District judges are elected to
six-year terms and earn approxi-
mately $72,000 a year.

News Sunday. In his one term
as Massachusetts governor, he
said, he balanced budgets, re-
duced taxes, enforced immigra-
tion laws, stood up for tradi-
tional marriage and was a pro-
life governor.
Im a solid conservative, he
said.
Theexchangehighlightedthe
choice facing Republican voters
in Arizona and Michigan on
Tuesday, and another 10 states a
week after that.
Romney did pick up the en-
dorsement of Arizona Gov. Jan
Brewer on Sunday.
Conservative activists dom-
inate the GOP primaries. But
party regulars fear too much fo-
cus on the Republican right will
leave the eventual nominee
poorly positioned to confront
Obama in November, when in-
dependent voters will be cru-
cial.
Santorum, a herotoanti-abor-
tion and home-schooling advo-
cates, disputes that argument.
The way to beat Obama, he said
Sunday, is with an unvarnished
conservative whose views dra-
matically clash with the presi-
dents on the economy, church
and state, energy, foreign policy
and other issues.
He said the party needs
someone who can paint a very
different vision of the country.
Romney and Santorum hit
Obama on many issues, includ-
ing the presidents apology for
the actions of U.S. troops who
burned Qurans inadvertent-
ly, they said while destroying
documents on a military base in
Afghanistan.
Romney said that for many
Americans, the apology sticks
in their throat.
Weve made an enormous
contribution to help the people
there achieve freedom, he said.
And for us to be apologizing at
a time like this is something
which is very difficult for the
American people to counte-
nance.
As for U.S. troops in Afghan-
istan, Romney said Obama
made an enormous error by an-
nouncingthewithdrawal dateof
our surge forces during the
fighting season.
Santorum portrayed Obamas
apology for the burned Qurans
as further proof that the presi-
dent is trying to appease forces
of evil bent on Americas de-
struction. To apologize rather
than simply note a mistake was
made, he said, not only encour-
ages them, but I believe, incites
them.
Santorum criticized Obama
in appearances on NBCs and
ABCs Sunday talk shows, but
he was more animatedandemo-
tional in his noon speech to vot-
ers in Marquette. He told them
the president has systematical-
lytakeneveryopportunitytotry
to take control of different sec-
tors of the economy; tried to
take your freedom and opportu-
nity away fromyouandgive it to
people who know better than
you how to run your lives, or
your business.
Santorum got a rare hostile
questionfromWallyTuccini, 57,
a heavy-equipment operator
from Marquette. Tuccini said
his mother was a RomanCathol-
ic who personally opposed birth
control, as does Santorum.
When she delivered her eighth
child, Tuccini said, the family
was so poor they barely ob-
tained essential medical care in
time, and he asked why Santo-
rumwants toreduce the govern-
ments social safety net.
We dont need a government
health care plan to be able to
solve the problem, Santorum
replied. What weneedis aproc-
ess in this country where people
will have an opportunity to go
out and use their resources, like
we do in this country with hous-
ing, cars and clothing.
Santorum noted he supports
a refundable tax credit for low-
income people seeking health
insurance. He did not offer de-
tails, nor does his campaign
website.
Romney, who campaigned
Sunday in Traverse City, Mich.,
and Daytona, Fla., defended his
proposal to cut income taxes
across the board.
I want to make sure that we
maintain the progressivity of
the code, he told Fox News.
AndI want tohelppeople whoI
think have been most hurt by
the Obama economy and
thats middle-income Ameri-
cans. Romney said he wants to
lower the marginal rate for all
Americans.
Former House speaker Newt
Gingrich is not competing in
Michigan. He attended church
services Sunday in Georgia,
where he launched his political
career, and warned an audience
that the secular left was trying
to undermine principles estab-
lished by the Founding Fathers.
He said America had faced a
50-year assault bythose trying
to alienate people of faith.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. NASCAR
has raced on the beach at Daytona, under
the lights and even around a pesky pot-
hole.
But never on a Monday until now.
The Daytona 500 was postponed Sun-
day for the first time in its 54-year history
after heavy rain saturated Daytona Inter-
national Speedway.
NASCARofficials spent more than four
hours waiting for a window to dry the
famed track, but it never came. When the
latest storm cell passed over the speed-
way around 5 p.m., they had little choice
but to call it a day.
The 500-mile race was rescheduled for
noon Monday. It will be aired on Fox.
This is one of the toughest things for
us drivers, pole-sitter Carl Edwards said.
Its now who can really stay focused.
Thats not just the drivers, thats the pit
crews, the crew chiefs, everyone, the offi-
cials. But I think well be just fine.
But Monday might be another test for
both drivers and fans.
The forecast calls for more rain, and of-
ficials are preparedtowait all day andinto
the night to avoid a Tuesday race, which
would strain teams that must get to Phoe-
nix for next weeks race.
The longer runway we have tomorrow
to get in the Daytona 500, the greater the
likelihood for us to start and finish the
event on Monday, NASCAR spokesman
Kerry Tharp said. There are certainly a

INDIANAPOLIS The LSU-

New Orleans. It moved to Indi-

After playing twice for the No.
1 ranking last season, repeatedly
being dubbed college footballs
two best defenses and eventually
settling the national champion-
ship between them, the top de-
fensive players from those teams
are ready to start Round 3 at
the NFL scouting combine.
Right now, its just mental, but
when we get back on the field, its
going to be just like the way it
was, Alabama cornerback Dre
Kirkpartick said Sunday with a
smile.
Scouts couldnt ask for a better
scenario.
Players from both teams are
out to impress team executives,
hoping to improve their draft
stock.
The stakes couldnt be higher.
The winners will be rewarded
with a bigger paycheck and per-
haps some big-time endorsement
deals, too.

Kirkpatrick and LSUs Morris
Claiborne are going head-to-head
to become the No. 1 cornerback
chosen in April. Alabama safety
Mark Barron and outside line-
backer Courtney Upshaw are
generally regarded as the No. 1
players at their positions, as is
LSU defensive tackle Michael
Brockers. And high school
recruits undoubtedly will pay at-
tention to which school produces
more NFL players and the high-

Thats not all.
Sixof the59defensivebacks in-

For the Tigers, its a chance to

WILKES-BARRE TWP. It
could be argued that the Wilkes-
Barre/Scranton Penguins fell
victim to penalties at inoppor-
tune times during Sundays
game against Norfolk.
Seemingly everytime the Pen-
guins began to get into a flow, a
penalty brought things to an
abrupt halt.
But on the other hand, the
Penguins may have fallen victim
to a penalty that wasnt called
during a 3-2 loss to the Admirals.
Withless thanfour minutes re-
maining in the third period with
a 2-2 tie, Norfolk went on the
power play. Early into the man
advantage, defenseman Joey
Mormina sprawled to the ice af-
ter anapparent high-stickcaught
him in the face.
If there was an infraction, ref-
erees Matt Kirk and Geoff Miller
didnt call it, and Norfolk re-
mainedonthe power play, which
led to the game-winning goal
from Carter Ashton soon after.
Penguins Robert Bortuzzo, right, is unable to get a shot past the
Admirals goalie Dustin Tokarski during a game Sunday. The Pen-
guins lost the game, 3-2.

For the first time in four years,
SelectionMondaywill havesome
local flavor.
Three Freedom Conference
teams from the area will learn
their postseason fates today as
the NCAA Division III basketball
tournament brackets arereleased
online at NCAA.com.
Two squads the Misericordia
men and women have already
punchedtheir ticket, having both
won Freedom Conference titles
on Saturday.
Another team, the Kings wom-
en, lost in the finals to Misericor-
dia and is holding out hope for an
at-large bid. The womens field is
64 teams while the mens will fea-
ture 62 teams.
It will be a day of celebration at
Misericordia, as both teams will
be making their first NCAA tour-
nament appearance. The mens
team enters on a 12-game win-
ningstreakbut will likelyheadon
the road.
The opening two rounds in
both tournaments are arranged
into four-team pods, with top
squads getting to host.
I knowtheres a lot of teams in
our region that could host,
coach Trevor Woodruff said. I
dont know if theyd send us to
(Franklin & Marshall in Lancas-
ter) because we played them. Ca-
brini (Radnor, Pa.) is a potential
host.
It doesnt matter. At this
point, everybody thats still play-
ing is really good. Wherever we
go, well get onthe bus andgive it
our best shot.
Last season the Freedom Con-
ference champions playedinNor-
folk, Va. (men) andGeneseo, N.Y.
(women) in the opening round.
The day will be much more
tense for the Lady Monarchs,
who are hopeful that their strong
resume that features 21 regional
wins will be enough to get them
into the field.
Only 20 at-large bids are hand-
ed out nationwide, and Kings is
squarely on the bubble.
We dont know. There are a lot
of (conference) championships
that dictate the combinations,
coach Brian Donoghue said. I
knowwere close either way. I be-
lieve were either just in or just
out. Hopefully our non-league
schedule helps us.
The Lady Monarchs have a
supporter in Misericordias Dave
Martin. The Cougars were the
only Freedom Conference team
to beat Kings this season.
Kings has had an unbelieva-
ble year, Martin said. Theyre
very well deserving of an NCAA
at-large bid. I hope they get it.
They deserve it.

ORLANDO, Fla. Kobe
Bryant took Michael Jordans re-
cord, thennearlylost thegameto
LeBron James.
Bryant andthebest of theWest
heldoff a furious East comeback,
winning 152-149 in the NBA All-
Star game on Sunday night.
Bryant scored 27 points, mov-
ing past Jordan as the career
scoring leader in the game. MVP
Kevin Durant had 36, and Thun-
der teammate Russell West-
brook finished with 21.
James and the East cut a 21-
point deficit to one inthe closing
seconds, but werent able to
move in front. James had 36
points and fel-
low Heat star
Dwyane Wade
finished with a
triple-double.
Blake Griffin
scored 22
points for the
West, which rang up 89 points in
the first half, setting an All-Star
record. But he won the game
with his defense, picking off
James pass when the East had a
chance totie inthe final seconds.
I cant turn the ball over like
that, James said. I let my team
down, but overall it was a great
weekend.
Griffin then hit one free throw
with 1.1 seconds left, and Wade
was off ona 3-point attempt from
the corner. He finished with 24
points, 10 rebounds and 10 as-
sists, joining Jordan and James
as the only players with All-Star
game triple-doubles.
Durant was the MVP, leaving
Bryant tied for the All-Star re-
cord with his four. But he got a
bigger mark in his 13th All-Star
game.
He broke Jordans record of
262 points on a dunk with 4:57
left in the third quarter and now
has 271for his career. He entered
with 244 and passed Oscar Ro-
bertson (246 points) and Ka-
reem Abdul-Jabbar (251) earlier
in the game.
It nearly wasnt enough, as the
Easts comeback had the crowd
filled with entertainers and ath-
leteschantingfor defensenev-
er a part of the All-Star game vo-
cabulary in the final seconds.
With Bryant covering him,
James hit two long 3-pointers in
the final period, andthe East had
a chance when Bryant, with the
crowd loudly booing, missed a
free throw with 18 seconds left
and the West up151-149.
Just being a competitor,
James said. They pretty much
beat us up all game so we just
wanted to make a game of it.
But New Jerseys Deron Wil-
liams was short on a 3-pointer,

TWINS
Zumaya out for the season
FORT MYERS, Fla. Joel Zumaya
has a torn ulnar collateral ligament in
his right elbow and will miss the sea-
son.
An MRI taken Sunday revealed the
injury.
Its the latest crushing injury for the
hard-throwing reliever, who was trying
to revive his career with the Minnesota
Twins. Zumaya signed an incentive-
laden, one-year deal with the Twins,
who hoped he could bolster their bull-
pen.
He had not thrown a pitch since June
2010 after breaking his elbow while
pitching in a game at Target Field.
Zumaya lasted just 13 pitches in his
first session of live batting practice
Saturday before walking off the mound
with pain in his elbow.
General manager Terry Ryan says he
has not spoken with the 27-year-old
Zumaya about his future yet.
METS
Tejada finally in camp
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. New York
Mets shortstop Ruben Tejada has re-
ported to spring training camp on time.
Still, it was later than manager Terry
Collins had anticipated.
Collins says he had expected Tejada
to be among the early arrivals so the
Mets could get a head start with their
new double-play combination. Tejada
takes over for Jose Reyes, who took a
free agent deal with the Marlins, and
Daniel Murphy is set to start at second.
The 22-year-old Tejada said Sunday
that he was delayed because of a visa
problem in Panama. He says he told
Collins during an early-morning meet-
ing that hed been working with a train-
er back home.
Collins says he reiterated to Tejada
the importance of being in camp early,
and the impact that would have made
on his teammates.
Tejada batted .284 in 96 games last
year with 36 RBIs.
RANGERS
Hamilton wants to stay
SURPRISE, Ariz. Texas outfielder
Josh Hamilton says that even if he does
become a free agent, he wants to re-
main with the Rangers.
On Friday, the former AL MVP said
he didnt feel that he owed the Rang-
ers. Hamilton clarified those remarks
Sunday and said his loyalty is with the
Rangers.
Hamiltons contract is finished after
this season. His agent and Rangers
recently put off talks on a new deal
after Hamilton had a relapse with alco-
hol. Hamilton has been troubled by
drugs and alcohol throughout his pro-
fessional career.
Hamilton has helped the Rangers
win the AL pennant in each of the last
two seasons.
INDIANS
Perez out 4 to 6 weeks
GOODYEAR, Ariz. Cleveland
Indians closer Chris Perez is out at
least one month and possibly six weeks
with a strained muscle in his side.
Perez strained his left oblique during
his first bullpen session of spring train-
ing. Trainer Lonnie Soloff said Perez
will need four to six weeks to recover
from the injury. Perez will not be able
to pitch in games until the end of the
exhibition season. Soloff has not ruled
out Perez from being available for
opening day because hes a reliever and
does not have to build up as much
stamina as a starter.
Perez had 36 saves and a 3.32 ERA in
64 games last season.
Soloff said the right-handers body
was not prepared for the intensity of
the bullpen session. Soloff said Perez
sustained the injury late in his first
workout off the mound.

Turning two
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Rickie
Weeks throws during a spring training
baseball workout Sunday in Phoenix.
Ever sincehebecametheWashington
Nationals very first draft pick, Ryan
Zimmerman wanted to stay with the
club for the long haul.
Now hell get that wish.
The Nationals took what they hope is
another step toward consistent conten-
tion by locking up their third baseman
and the guy many still call the face of
the franchise through 2019, adding
six years to Zimmermans existing con-
tract in a deal announced Sunday.
The deal includes a full no-trade
clause.
The extra six seasons are worth $100
million, a person familiar with the nego-
tiations told The Associated Press. The
person spoke on con-
dition of anonymity
because no financial
terms were revealed
publicly.
Its nice that its
done, Zimmerman
said at a news confer-
ence at the clubs
spring training stadium in Viera, Fla.
Its where I want to be. Its where Ive
always wanted to be.
He already was signed for 2012 and
2013, with $26 million remaining on the
five-year, $45 million contract he got at
the start of the 2009 season. Hes now
guaranteed $126 million over the next
eight seasons, and there is a club option
for 2020.
I love pressure. I dont think people
get these kinds of contracts that dont
want to be in pressure situations. Ever
since Ive been here, Ive wanted to be
the guy thats up last in the ninth in-
ning, Zimmerman said. Ive wanted to
be the guy that everyone looks to. Ive
wanted to be the so-called leader. I rel-
ish being that guy. I love it. I wouldnt
have it any other way.
He grewup not fromthe nations cap-
ital in Virginia Beach, Va., and his par-
ents still live there.
The two sides talked late into the
night Saturday, making enough pro-
gress for the 27-year-old Zimmerman to
extend a self-imposed deadline that co-
incided with that days start of official
full-squad workouts. He wanted to get a
deal completed now or postpone talks
until after the season so his contract sit-
uation wouldnt be a distraction in the
clubhouse for the Nationals, who are
hoping to finally be competitive in the
NL East.
Washington finished third in the divi-
sion in 2011, the franchises best show-
ing since moving from Montreal.
Zimmerman was the teams first draft
pick after the Expos became the Nation-
als beforethe2005seasonhewas tak-
en No. 4 overall that year after playing
college baseball at Virginia and he
quickly emerged as Washingtons best
player.
Hes been an NLAll-Star, and also col-
lected Gold Glove and Silver Slugger
awards.
Last season, Zimmerman was limited
by injuries to 395 at-bats over 101
games. He hit .289 with 12 homers, 21
doubles and 49 RBIs.
For his career, Zimmerman has a .288
batting average, 128 homers, 214 dou-
bles, 498 RBIs, a .355 on-base percent-
age and .479 slugging percentage, and
hes considered one of the top defensive
third basemen in the majors.
Hes also emerged as one of the lead-
ers of the team in the clubhouse.
In my opinion, its just another indi-
cation the organization is moving in the
right direction, shortstop Ian Des-
mond said. To lock up a guy and show
loyalty to your franchise player ... and to
see Zim be happy at home, and not to
have to worry about that any more, its
going to be nice. Im happy for him. We
definitely need him.

PORTST. LUCIE, Fla. The
New York Mets wont have to
wait until opening day to gauge
how the pulled-in fences at Citi
Fieldwill leadtomorelongballs.
One practice field at their
spring training complex repli-
cates thoseexact dimensions, in-
cluding before and after markers
that illustrate the radical make-
over.
At practiceField7, just outside
the main diamond at Digital Do-
mainPark, theresplentyof room
in the power alleys where theres
space to drive a truck between
twochain-linkfences a16-foot
high monster that kept balls in
play the first three years at Citi
Field, and the hitter-friendly 8-
foot wall the park will have this
season.
The Mets estimate 29 more
homers including both teams
would have been hit last sea-
son. So the reconfiguration fig-
urestoimprovethepowerprofile
of a teamthat was13th in the NL
with108 homers last year.
Itsnoaccident thefieldisadja-
centtothemainfield, thereforall
tosee ona dailybasis. All it takes
is a bit of imagination.
I think balls that might have
one-hopped the wall last year, I
think its going to bounce off the
wall or maybe even go out, out-
fielder Lucas Duda said. Obvi-
ously its a chain-link fence vs. a
prettysolidwall, but it givesmea
chance to kind of get used to the
dimensionsandget aheadstart.
ManagerTerryCollinsishope-
ful that the redone dimensions
will do more than lead to home
runs. He believes itll provide a
mental lift for players whomight
have become pull-happy in the
past.
Guys like DavidWright.
Its going to mean a lot be-
cause David, right-center is
where he made a living, Collins
said. Itswherehebecameastar.
I think its going to be back in his
game again.
Wright hit 14 homers in an in-
jury-shortened 2011, nine of
themontheroad. Now, heantici-
pates thesplits wont besodiffer-
ent.
You want to be rewarded for
having good at-bats, hitting the
ball hard, Wright said. Some-
times you do everything you can
possibly do andhit a ball as good
as youcan, andobviouslyyouget
a little frustratedwiththat.
From what Ive seen, from
what Ive heard, it looks like the
parks going to play relatively
fair.
Since it opened in 2009, Citi
Fieldhasbeenoneof themostdif-
ficult parks to homer in. No Met
totaledmore than15homers last
season.

JUPITER, Fla. St. Louis Cardinals
general manager John Mozeliak would
like to see Tyler Greene take over for
Skip Schumaker as the teams regular
second baseman. First-year manager
Mike Matheny isnt ready to commit to
the switch.
Im trying not to have any precon-
ceived ideas what that is going to look
like over there, Matheny said. Whos
going to be in that particular spot? We
just dont know yet. Im going to stand
behind that and try to fight any prejudice
or any favor in any one direction at this
point.
A first-round selection out of Georgia
Tech in 2005, Greene has yet to earn con-
sistent playing time in the major leagues.
A shortstop most of his career, he has
been asked to try third base and the out-
field over the past couple of springs.
Its really about taking someone who
is really talented has a unique skill set
in the sense of speed and power and
giving him an opportunity at a starting
job, Mozeliak said. It is something that
we are trying to do with the understand-
ing that he still has to earn it.
Second base is the only starting posi-
tion up for grabs in Cardinals camp as
the team prepares to defend its 2011
World Series championship.
A career .270 hitter in the minors,
Greene smacked 85 home runs and stole
144 bases in a little more than 600 games.
Those numbers have yet to translate into
major league success.
Hes never hit more than .222 in any of
his three big league seasons, maxing out
at 122 plate appearances in a year.
Greene actually got a start on the tran-
sition last season when 25 of his 58 ap-
pearances came at second base, includ-
ing 14 starts. The organizations decision
to give him the opportunity to win the
job has allowed Greene to focus on the
most difficult aspect of the change
turning the double play.
Thats where the footwork and the
body turns and everything are kind of
flip-flopped fromthe other side, he said.
Its the complete opposite from the oth-
er side. Ive really been working on that
every day, just to get that much more
comfortable.
Schumaker understands what its like
to try to learn second base at the major
league level. Three years ago, his transi-
tion fromthe outfield to second base was
former manager Tony La Russas grand
spring experiment.
A career .290 hitter, Schumaker has
committed 32 errors in 351 games at sec-
ond base since the move.
I think they are going to give Tyler
every opportunity to win the job and if he
ends up putting everything together, its
exciting for our team, said Schumaker,
who avoided arbitration by signing a
two-year contract with the Cardinals in
December that will pay hima base salary
of more than a million dollars less per
season than he made in 2011.

Indeed, he could.
Both players went through a most un-
settling winter.
Jurrjens andPradowerementionedfre-
quently in trade talks after the Atlanta

game. While there was plenty of blame to
go around for the September swoon,

age of his big league career.
Bothwere preparedto move on.
Even now, still wearing Braves uni-
forms in the early days of spring training,
theyre not getting too comfortable.
Ilovethisteam. Theygavemeachance
to play in the bigs, Prado said Sunday.
Right now, Im still with the Braves.
Thats the teamI love the most. But I feel

S P O R T S
Hazleton Area put together a
run of four straight District 2
Class 3A titles from 2007-10.
Mark Uliano and Pat LaBuz
were each four-time district
champs, while Jared Kay placed
third in the state as the trio com-
bined for nearly 400 wins.
On Saturday, Larry Roman-
chik showed his abilities becom-
ing the latest Cougar to have suc-
cess at the district tournament
winning his district title at 113 as
a freshman. The Cougar has 23
wins this season and joins Uliano
and LaBuz as the only freshmen
in school history to win district
gold.
His teammate, Chad Hoffman,
was teammates for two seasons
with Uliano, LaBuz and Kay.
The senior, who claimed his
first district gold medal on Sat-
urday night and is a returning
seventh-place state medalist,
says Romanchiks ceiling could
be higher than the prominent
trio.
I think Romanchik will be
above the top, Hoffman said
about his teammate. Im pre-
dicting a state championship by
the time hes a junior. Hes just
that good technical and hes only
going to get stronger.
Romanchik, who trailed Crest-
woods Bob Gray early on in the
match before picking up the 7-5
victory, admitted to being nerv-
ous during his finals bout on his
home gym, which led to a few
cautions.
I guess anxiety kind of got me
on the cautions, he said. My
coach told me to close my eyes
and that helped a lot; (he said)
just listen for the whistle, dont
look for it. So I closed my eyes at
one point.
Romanchik may end up being
part of another lengthy, success-
ful run for the Cougars in the
years to come as the team has a
top-notch junior high program
with many up-and-comers. The
programs junior high coach Jim
Hoffman was also named junior
high coach of the year.
ELITE MATCHUP
There were numerous exciting
matches during the finals of the
District 2 Class 3A Champion-
ships Saturday night.
Perhaps none was more excit-
ing than the 126-pound bout be-
tween Wyoming Valley Wests
Kyle Krasavage and Delaware
Valleys C.J. Palmer.
Both are currently ranked in
the top seven in the state in many
publications and they lived up to
the billing. The crowd was into
every point as dueling chants of
Lets go Kyle and Lets go C.J.
kept getting louder and louder.
In the end, Palmer picked up a
two-point decision, but Krasav-
age wasnt disappointed.
I dont think he was devastat-
ed at all. He gave himall he could
handle, Spartans coach Steve
Barber said. Theyre both good
kids ones ranked third ones
ranked seventh and they went
at it. I think he kept his head up
and took it pretty well.
Krasavage is known for wres-
tling top competition.
He also wrestled top prep
wrestler Dom Malone from
Wyoming Seminary. Malone,
who defeated the Spartan earlier
this season, won a National Prep
Championship on Saturday.
In January at the WVCTourna-
ment, the WVWjunior he defeat-
ed Meyers Vito Pasone, one of
the top Class 2A wrestlers in the
state.
As a team, Valley West sky-
rocketed in the team standings
during the tournament after end-
ing Fridays competition in 10th
place, the Spartans jumped all
the way to second after Satur-
days showings and will be repre-
sented at the Northeast Regional
with six qualifiers. Pittston Area
is the only other WVC team with
six regional qualifiers.
ROCKETING COMETS
Crestwood showed flashes of
brilliance this season as a team
knocking off WVC Division I co-
champion Coughlin in a dual for
its only divisional loss.
But the Comets put up just a
3-3 record in the division and
missed out on the District 2
Class 3A Duals Championships
earlier this month.
They always seemsto step up
at the individual tournament and
showed they are still a force
when it comes to those events
taking fourth in the team stand-
ings on Saturday with six med-
alists, including five regional
qualifiers, four finalists and two
champions.
Kyle Hankinson won his sec-
ond straight a title at 145 and his
workout partner, 152-pounder
Matt Hammerstone also claimed
a gold medal. Joining that duo at
regionals are teammates Bob
Gray (113 pounds) and Roger
Legg (182) who were runners-up
and Dan Ritz, who took fourth at
126.

Claiborne measured in at 5-
foot-11, 183 pounds, slightly
shorter and heavier than his list-
ed measurements of 6-feet and

a technician than a physical cor-
nerback.
Kirkpatrick, a second teamAll-
American, will undoubtedly have
to answer questions about his off-
the-field conduct. He was arrest-
ed in January on a misdemeanor
drug possession charge, which
was dropped three weeks later af-
ter the driver, Kirkpatrick said,
signed an affidavit admitting the
marijuana was his.
It was me being in the wrong

A couple other talented cor-
ners with checkered pasts are al-
so out to prove theyve grown up.
North Alabama cornerback Ja-
noris Jenkins and Oregon corner-

are 2-6 against the Admirals with
two more games to play in Nor-
folk.
Theres a challenge in front of
us that we have to find a way to
be able to beat this team, Hynes
said. A challenge to find a way
to beat them regularly, whether
its at home or on the road.
After a scoreless first period,
penalties allowed both teams to
get on the board in the second.
The Penguins capitalized first
with a Ben Street wrist shot to
the far side for a power play goal
and a 1-0 lead.
In the last five minutes of the
period the Admirals evened
things up when Mark Barberio
beat rookie goaltender Patrick
Killeen, whowas makinghis first
AHL start, with a shot from the
low slot during a power play to
make it 1-1.
Norfolk took the lead in the
third period when former Pen-
guinJ-PCote blasteda shot from
the top of the slot to make it 2-1,
followed by Picards slapshot
goal to erase the Admirals lead
and tie things up, 2-2.
With less than four minutes to
play and Alex Grant in the penal-
ty box, the Penguins went on the
kill for the seventh time in the
game. Seconds into the power
play, Mormina hit the ice in the
Penguins end with his hands on
his face. Play continued as Mor-
mina skated off the ice, and Ash-
ton placed a shot behind Kil-
leens back for the win.
Street said the fact that a call
wasnt made when Mormina
went down didnt hurt the Pen-
guins as much as the penalties
they took throughout the game.
Norfolk was 2-for-7 on the power
play while the Penguins were 1-
for-6
It was tough to get a flow, he
said. It seemedlike whenthings
were goinggoodthere was a pen-
alty, and it screwed things up on
the bench too.
With 19 games left in the sea-
son and Norfolk leading the divi-
sion and the Eastern Conference
by four points, the Penguins
know they need to make up
ground quickly. Norfolk has now
won their last nine while the
Penguins have dropped two in a
row.
Its definitely going to be a
dogfight between us, them and
Hershey, and thats why this
stings even more, Street said.
One good weekend or one bad
weekend and everythings
flipped upside down again. This
wasnt a two-point game, it was a
four-point game and we need to
make sure when the points are
there we take them.
NOTES
Hynes said GScott Munroe,
who left Saturdays game, is day-
to-day, as is Bryan Lerg, who
didnt play on Sunday.

4-0 record for the Cincinnati Cy-
clones with a 2.78 goals against
average and a .901 save percent-
age this season.
Killeen stopped 21 of 24
shots in his first career start.

PENGUINS
lot of considerations that go into
the start time decision, and we
believe scheduling it for noon
gives us the best opportunity for
us to get the race intomorrow.
Eight previous Daytona 500s
have enduredraindelays, the lat-
est in 2009. But never before had
storms forced NASCARs pre-
mier event to be moved.
I think thats a pretty good re-
cord for NASCAR, Edwards
said. Theyve been living right
tohave53of theseandneverhave
one postponed. Thats pretty
spectacular. ... I think NASCAR,
theyre doingthe right thing, you
know, not dragging this out.
Noontime showers sent fans
scattering for cover and leaving
everyone in wait-and-see mode.
Puddles of water formed in parts
of the infield, and many fans got
drenched as they tried to make
the best of a less-than-ideal situa-
tion.
Drivers retreated to their mo-
torhomes, relaxing while keep-
ing an eye on developments. Ed-
wards, Brad Keselowski and oth-
ers took naps. Former Daytona
500 winners Jamie McMurray
and Trevor Bayne did in-studio
interviews with Fox. Another
previous race winner, Ryan New-
man, playedwithhis daughter in
the motorhome lot.
I guess Imgonna have to win
the first Monday Daytona 500,
driver Greg Biffle said. As you
cantell, Imstill inmyuniformbe-
cause I was optimistic that this
weather was gonna get out of
hereandweweregoingtogetthis
thing going. But Ill have to save
my energy for tomorrow.
Iknowalotof racefansaredis-
appointed and a lot of people at
home on TV, but we just hope
they tune intomorrow.
The last shortened Daytona
500 was Matt Kenseths victory
three years ago, when rain stop-
pedtheevent 48lapsfromthefin-
ish. He was declared the winner
while the cars were parkedonpit
road.
The 2010 race had more than
two hours in delays as NASCAR
twice stopped the event to fix a
pothole in the surface. Jamie
McMurray held off Dale Earn-
hardt Jr. to winthat race.
This time around, drivers
didnt evenget intheir cars.
I didnt know when to eat. I
didnt knowwhentorest. I didnt
know what to do, Bobby La-
bonte said. I never took my uni-
form off. I took a nap. I think we
cleaned out the refrigerator
snacking onthings.
Now, NASCARmust deal with
the downside of moving its big-
gest race. Ratings and attend-
ance will suffer, falling short of
what the series expected.
Fans surely will have com-
plaints, too.
Daytona president Joie Chit-
wood said he understood fans
were frustrated about the sched-
uling change that pushed the
race back one week later than
usual. NASCAR and the track
made the decision to move the
start of the season to address an
awkward early off weekend and
to avoid potential conflicts with
the Super Bowl.

MARANA, Ariz. Even as
Hunter Mahan motored his way
through the Match Play Cham-
pionship by beating one tough
opponent after another, he had
reason to feel he was just along
for the ride in the final match
Sunday afternoon.
All the chatter was about U.S.
Open champion Rory McIlroy
and his march to No. 1 in the
world.
All the chants Mahan heard as
he walked down the first two
holes at Dove Mountain were for
McIlroy.
With a little extra motivation
he didnt need, Mahan won three
straight holes on the front nine to
seize control and answered McIl-
roys charge with birdies of his
own for a 2-and-1 victory.
Deep down, you wanted to
postpone that crowning of the
No. 1 player in the world for Ro-
ry, Mahansaid. Hell get there. I
mean, hes phenomenal. Hes re-
ally talented. Hell be No. 1 even-
tually. But yeah, when youre a
player, and I listen to Johnny
Miller and Nick Faldo and all
those guys, they had him picked
to win. And thats what everybo-
dy was talking about.
There was absolute motiva-
tion in that.
It provedto be too long of a day
for McIlroy, the 22-year-old from
Northern Ireland, who put so
much energy into a high-stakes
semifinal match against Lee
Westwood earlier Sunday. If ei-
ther of them won the tourna-
ment, they would go to No. 1 in
the world.
McIlroy, explosive as ever, ran
off seven birdies in a 10-hole
stretch to overcome an early def-
icit and beat Westwood. He
looked flat in the championship
match, made a series of mistakes
to lose back-to-back holes, and
fell too far behind to catch Ma-
han.
To me, it was like my final in a
way, McIlroy saidof his winover
Westwood. That was the one I
wanted all week and I got. And
thats what I got myself up for.
Yeah, maybe mentally and emo-
tionally it did take a little bit out
of me. But it still doesnt take
away from the fact that Hunter
played very, very solid golf.

COLUMBUS, Ohio Jared
Berggren scored Wisconsins
final five points including a
go-ahead 3-pointer with 31
seconds left and the 16th-
ranked Badgers beat No. 8
Ohio State 63-60 on Sunday.
Jordan Taylor had 19 points
and Ryan Evans 10 for the
Badgers (21-8, 10-6 Big Ten),
who made up for an earlier loss
at home to Ohio State.
With the Buckeyes (23-6,
11-5) up by a point, Berggren
swished a shot from beyond
the arc on the left wing.
Deshaun Thomas had 23
points for Ohio State. William
Buford had 15 and Aaron Craft
13.
The loss gave Michigan
State a share of the Big Ten
title.
The Badgers improved to 6-3
in Big Ten road games and 9-4
overall away from Kohl Center.
Since Bo Ryan took over as
head coach, Wisconsin has the
most road wins and best road
winning percentage among all
Big Ten teams (62-60, .508).
Miami 78, Florida State 62
CORAL GABLES, Fla.
Durand Scott scored 17 points

Atlantic Coast Conference),
who pulled into a tie with
Virginia for fourth place in the
conference standings.
Louisville 57, Pittsburgh 54
LOUISVILLE, Ky. Russ
Smith scored 18 points, Kyle
Kuric added 17 and Louisville
held on to beat Pittsburgh.
Kuric overcame an 0-for-11
performance in Thursdays loss
to Cincinnati by hitting his first
shot and making a key 3-point-
er late. Kurics bucket as the
shot clock expired gave Louis-
ville (22-7, 10-6 Big East) a
53-48 lead with 3:25 left.
Pittsburgh (15-14, 4-12) cut
the lead to one and had three
chances to tie or take the lead
in the final minute, but Tray
Woodall missed a jumper and
Ashton Gibbs shot from just
inside halfcourt as time ex-
pired hit off the back iron.
J.J. Moore scored 16 points
for the Panthers.
Indiana 69, Minnesota 50
MINNEAPOLIS Christian
Watford rediscovered his
shooting stroke with 12 points
as Indiana blew out sputtering
Minnesota, avenging a home
loss to the Gophers six weeks
ago.
Victor Oladiopo and Jordan
Hulls also scored 12 for Indiana
(22-7, 9-7 Big Ten), which held
the Gophers to a season-low
point total and went 21 for 25
at the free throw line. It was
the lowest score against the
Hoosiers in a conference game
this season.

from Fridays loss at No. 7
Duke by grabbing a quick 14-0
lead over the Eagles. Stefanie
Yderstrom scored 13 points for

liams added 13 points and nine
rebounds for the Blue Devils
(24-4, 15-1 ACC), who had
already clinched the top seed

ment in Greensboro. But this
win gave Duke an outright
ACC crown for the first time in
five years, while also giving
fifth-year coach Joanne P.
McCallie her first road victory
in the rivalry.

eight conference road games.
Delaware 89,
Northeastern 71
NEWARK, Del. Elena
Delle Donne scored 35 points
and Delaware won its 16th
straight game with a victory
over Northeastern.
With the win, the Blue Hens

With one game remaining on
the schedule, Delaware is also
trying to become the first CAA
team since 2002 to finish the
regular season unbeaten in
conference.
Tennessee 75, Florida 59
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. Glo-
ry Johnson had 21 points and
10 rebounds and Tennessee
beat Florida to grab second
place in the Southeastern Con-
ference.
This was the final home
game for the Lady Vols, who
have lost the most games ever

Pat Summitt. The Hall of Fam-
er revealed in August that she
had been diagnosed with early
onset dementia, Alzheimers
type.

STATE COLLEGE Mag-

as much as 24 in the first half
and 33 in the second.
Kiara Buford had 11 points
for Minnesota (14-16, 6-10),
which kept pace with the
leagues best rebounding team
on the glass but failed to con-
vert several second chances
and easy looks inside.

high seven straight, including
the last five by double digits.

set up another to lead the Tam-
pa Bay Lightning to a 4-3 victo-
ry over the New Jersey Devils
on Sunday.
Mathieu Garon made 19
saves and set up St. Louis first
goal as the Lightning snapped a
two-game losing streak less
than 24 hours after being blown
out 8-1 by the Penguins.
Teddy Purcell added three
assists for Tampa Bay, which
has gone 11-5-2 in its last 18 in
making a playoff push.
Alexei Ponikarovsky, Petr
Sykora and Zach Parise scored

the season, Brad Thiessen
made 21 saves in his NHL de-
but and Pittsburgh beat Colum-
bus.

Tampa Bay and Columbus with
ease.
Thiessen played well while
giving Marc-Andre Fleury a rare

Ryan Kesler scored in the
opening minute of the second
period for the Canucks, and
Mason Raymond added a goal.
Vancouver has an NHL-best 87
points and was 12-1-3 in their
previous 16 games.
Panthers 4, Canadiens 2
SUNRISE, Fla. Stephen
Weiss scored two goals and
Florida improved to 3-0 against

ida and Scott Clemmensen
made 18 saves. Weiss and Ber-
genheim each had assists and
Mikael Samuelsson had a pair

making his first start since
being recalled from the minor
to replace the injured Craig
Anderson, made 28 saves for
Ottawa.
Milan Michalek, Jason Spez-
za, Jim OBrien, Chris Neil, and
Kyle Turris scored for the Sen-
ators.
Lehner was making his first
start since being recalled from
Binghamton on an emergency

paring food at home.
John Tavares and P.A. Parent-
eau scored for the Islanders and
Evgeni Nabokov made 19 saves.

and after the East came up with
it, James fireda pass intoa crowd
that Griffin intercepted.
On a colorful night in Orlando,
from pregame performer Nicki
Minajs pinkandgreenhair tothe
neon sneakers many of the stars
wore, Dwight Howard had nine
points and 10 rebounds as the
games host.
The NBAs first All-Star game
in Orlando in 20 years wasnt
close after 2
1
2 quarters. But play-
ers always say it gets competitive
in the final five minutes, and
James was again up for the chal-
lenge.
Hehikedhis scoringaverageto
25.9points over his eight All-Star
games, and someday hell proba-
bly take the record Bryant set
Sunday.
But he couldnt quite catch
Kobe in the game.
With the 2-year-old Amway
Center considered by many the
finest arena in the league, the
NBA brought its midseason
showcase backtoOrlandofor the
first time since the memorable
1992 game, when Magic Johnson
was MVP three months after re-
tiring fromthe league because of
the HIV virus.
This one was once in jeopardy
of being lost when the lockout
lasted into late November. With-
out a settlement then, All-Star
weekend may have been wiped
out, as it was in 1999 following a
work stoppage.
The party was saved.
James and Howard, wearing
bright orange shoes, dancedonto
the stage for pregame introduc-
tions, Howard breaking into an
enormous grin when fans gave
him a thunderous ovation as the
last All-Star introduced. He in-
sists that he and Magic fans still
havealoveaffair despitehis trade
request, understanding he still
loves thecityevenif not his team,
and urged everyone to ignore the
trade talkfor a weekendandhave
fun.
We did it big for our city, he
said in brief pregame remarks to
the crowd before the game.
Then Andrew Bynum blocked
his first shot attempt.

Feb. 29 March 8 March 14 March 22
This upcoming
week is going to
feel a little like
spring with a
slight taste of
winter! Today
will be one of
the nicest days
of the week.
Highs will be
around 50. A
front will push
through the
region later in
the evening,
dropping the
temperature
down to 28.
Tuesday will be
slightly cooler.
Rain showers will
start Wednesday
and continue
into Thursday
morning as light
urries. We could
see scattered
rain showers
during the day.
Friday will start
off mostly clear,
then turn over-
cast as rain
showers move in
for Saturday.
Sunday is look-
ing partly cloudy,
with the chance
of an afternoon
rain shower.
- Michelle Rotella
NATIONAL FORECAST: A low pressure system in the Southwest will be responsible for scattered pre-

HOW TO CONTACT:
Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Ange-
les, CA 90069
For more Sudoku go to www.timesleader.com
O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: Im a
longtime reader with
a question I have
never seen in your
column: Why dont
they put something
in pet food to keep
dogs and cats from
getting pregnant? Then people could
control the pet population.
Harrisonburg, Va., Reader
Dear Reader: Your idea is intriguing.
However, the reason that contracep-
tive pet food doesnt exist may have
something to do with the cost. Also,
the effective dose might vary accord-
ing to the size and weight of the ani-
mals. If a Great Dane wasnt feeling
particularly hungry one day, it could
wind up a little bit pregnant.
Seriously, I took your question to
Dr. John Winters, a respected veteri-
narian in Beverly Hills, Calif., who
told me there are research trials go-
ing on involving oral contraceptives
to control the wild animal population,
such as coyotes. If one day it is made
available for domestic pets, it would
have to be by prescription only.
Dear Abby: My husband, Les, en-
joys cooking and inviting friends to
join us for dinner. I respect peoples
likes and dislikes when it comes
to certain foods, but Les does not.
We have discussed it on many occa-
sions and he feels people should be
open-minded, not picky or finicky.
We are having two guests over for
dinner soon. One does not like on-
ions and the other doesnt care for
mushrooms. I reminded Les of this,
but hes determined to prepare his
spaghetti sauce with lots of onions
and mushrooms. As the hostess, Im
embarrassed. Am I wrong?
Just the Sous-Chef, Des Moines,
Iowa
Dear Just The Sous-Chef: That
your husband would serve guests
something he knows they dislike
shows him to be self-centered and un-
willing to extend true hospitality.
Dont be surprised if your guests
eat very little of Les spaghetti, and
prepare for it in advance by having
a salad and garlic bread on hand so
they wont go away hungry. Your
problem may resolve itself, because a
person would have to be a glutton for
punishment to accept a second din-
ner invitation at your home.
Dear Abby: I have been married 35
years. The children are grown and on
their own now. I am healthy, but find
I have absolutely no interest in my
spouse sexual or otherwise. Hab-
its of his that I overlooked in earlier
years really turn me off now.
I have chosen to stay in this mar-
riage so my children and grandchil-
dren wont have to split time visiting.
After so many years, staying is just
easier. Has anyone ever written to
you with a similar situation?
Unfulfilled in the Midwest
Dear Unfulfilled: Yes, usually after
the crisis that happened because the
womans husband felt abandoned and
looked elsewhere for the caring and
affection he wasnt receiving at home.
The relationship you have de-
scribed isnt a marriage; its an ar-
rangement. If this is what you and
your husband are willing to settle for
in order to spare your children and
grandchildren the inconvenience of
visiting you separately, then you both
have my sympathy.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Controlling the pet population should not be such a difficult task
To receive a collection of Abbys most
memorable and most frequently re-
quested poems and essays, send a busi-
ness-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus
check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in
Canada) to: Dear Abbys Keepers, P.O.
Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447.
(Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Usually,
in order to let something grow,
you have to let it go. This is very
true of a relationship now. Doing
everything together and staying
mired in the minutiae have a sti-
fling effect. Give it some space.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Quite
aware that your social image is
an important predictor of your
success in life, youll endeavor to
spiff things up a bit now. Youll
make changes to your style.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). A popular
song by the artist Gotye, a fellow
Gemini, suggests that one could
get addicted to a certain kind of
sadness. Whatever your weak-
ness is in the sadness depart-
ment, youll buck the habit today.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). What
you cant do forcefully, you can
do with creativity. Its your best
tool now, but it only can come
about when youre relaxed.
Loosen up.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Being
stressed out is always an option,
but you dont have to let this day
wind you up. Most problems that
come up will solve themselves in
one way or another. Think about
that before you get involved.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Sometimes youre afraid to
pause and take stock of a situ-
ation because you dont want
others to think youre not being
productive. Avoid staying busy
for the sake of it. Stopping to get
perspective is only smart.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You are
once again put in a position to
persuade others, and youre the
perfect person for the job. Youll
relate easily to others and create
a steady rapport.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). What
matters is a subjective choice. A
loved one will be concerned with
something that doesnt mean
much to you, and yet, out of love
and emotional maturity, you are
able to be empathic.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Theres an old Southern saying
that a frog doesnt know how
far it can jump until its kicked.
Super-intense circumstances
always bring out the best in you.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
You are halfway between two
different ideas, and youre
unlikely to find favor with either
side. People will try to get your
approval. Theyll want you to join
their cause. If anyone can walk
the line, its you.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You
approach life with a style and
humor all your own. Your joy
and spontaneous expression will
draw in a kindred spirit. This per-
son is not very much like you but
has a complementary energy.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A new
passion is building inside you. At
first, you dont even realize what
you really want. But the yearning
gets stronger, and you can no
longer ignore its message.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Feb. 27).
You feel free to play and explore
this year. Accidental creations
and inventions will be featured
in the first half of your year.
Theres an ease that comes
from being organized and using
your resources well. May brings
reunions. Social success leads to
financial success in August. Your
love signs are Aries and Gemini.
Your lucky numbers are: 50, 41,
22, 39 and 19.
