WILKES-BARRE A 14-year-old boy facing an undisclosed criminal charge in juvenile court in connection to the April shooting death of his friend, 14-year-old Tyler Winstead, appeared in Luzerne County
Court for a second time Friday. Prosecutors and family members remained tightlipped about what happened in the closed-door proceeding. Yusiff Elijah Yusiff, of WilkesBarre, appeared for a court proceeding before Judge Tina Polachek Gartley. The hearing was listed on the
judges schedule as a disposition hearing, which is similar to a sentencing in adult court. He previously appeared before the judge at a May 30 hearing. To reach a disposition hearing, a juvenile must first appear at an adjudication hearing, where he or she may be declared a delinquent.

WILKES-BARRE A review of bills submitted by former solicitor Anthony Lupas to WilkesBarre Area School district shows that, while often giving detailed descriptions of his work, Lupas rarely provided dates the work was done, making it all but impossible to tell how many hours he billed on any given day. The Times Leader re- Lupas viewed copies of bills submitted for the last six months of 2011. A previous review of district records had shown payments to Lupas for legal work had risen six-fold in three years, soaring to $328,956 in 2011, despite the fact that Lupas suffered a serious fall late in the year and did little work in the last two months. Lupas resigned his position as solicitor a job he held for four decades and is facing federal charges that he ran an investment scheme with unnamed co-conspirators, bilking people out of millions. The charges werent related to Lupas school district work, but federal agents did seek his district bills back through 2006. The school board has paid for a forensic audit of legal bills dating back that far and is expecting to learn results this month, possibly at the work session or regular meeting this Monday and Wednesday respectively. The six months of bills reviewed by The Times Leader show that, along with his monthly retainer of $2,115, Lupas submitted 66 pages of bills dated from June 27 through Jan. 11, charging a total of $147,050 for 917 hours of work.

WILKES-BARRE The state Superior Court has upheld a Luzerne County judges ruling that terminated a womans parental rights, rejecting her allegation the case may have been influenced by a romantic relationship an employee with Children and Youth Services had with a foster parent who was caring for the womans two children. The appellate court concurred with Senior Judge Chester Mu-
roskis finding that the relationship, which Children and Youth admitted created a conflict of interest, did not influence the agencys decision to seek to terminate the womans rights. The mother, identified in court documents as D.G., sought to overturn an Aug. 8, 2011ruling by Senior Judge Clinton Smith that cleared the way for the foster parent to seek to adopt the children, ages and 13 and 16. The case took an unusual twist in March 2012 when the biological mother advised officials she had witnessed the foster mother, who is the childrens paternal aunt, engage in a romantic relationship with Peter James, a Children and Youth case aide worker involved in her case. The other suspect is described as a white male, about 5 feet 8 inches tall, thin build and wore a green baseball hat and a red shirt. WILKES-BARRE A Nanticoke man faces several charges after he allegedly used a hammer to smash his way through a door and into a Wilkes-Barre home and threatened to kill everyone inside. City police said they received a call from Clement Sosnak, of 324 E. Union St. at about 7:30 p.m. Thursday to report that Lee Antonik called him and threatened to come to the house and kill everyone. Officer Bryan Kata said he called Sosnak just after 8 p.m. and, while talking with him, heard glass shattering and Sosnak told him Antonik was smashing out the back door witndow with a hammer. As Kata was approaching the house, he saw Antonik walk away from the residence, cross the street and toss a hammer into some bushes. Kata retrieved the hammer and placed it into evidence. Sosnak told police Antonik had called him just before Kata called him and Antonik told him he was going to kill every one of them including your son. Im going to slit your throats and bust everyones head in. Antonik, 36, of Miner Street in the Wanamie section of Nanticoke, was charged with three counts each of simple assault and making terroristic threats, two counts of stalking and one count each of burglary and criminal mischief. He was arraigned before District Judge Andrew Barilla and, unable to post bail, was lodged at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility.
According to court documents, the mother was at the agencys offices when she witnessed James get into the foster mothers vehicle. The pair drove to a nearby parking lot and engaged in a romantic type of relationship. Officials with Children and Youth were unaware of the relationship until the mother made the allegation, the court documents said. Frank Castano, executive director of Children and Youth, confronted James and he admitted he began a relationship with the foster mother around March 2011. Castano on Friday said he could not comment on whether any disciplinary action was taken against James. County records
show James resigned his position in June. The termination case was on appeal to the state Superior Court at the time of the incident. The womans allegation prompted the court to order Luzerne County Court hold a hearing to determine whether a conflict of interest existed. In a June 15 ruling, Muroski declined to overturn the termination order, saying evidence presented showed James did not have any direct role in decisions made in the case. Muroski cited the testimony of several Children and Youth officials, including the caseworker in charge of the case, who said the decision to terminate the moth-
ers rights was based primarily on her failure to complete programs, including drug and alcohol and mental health counseling. Muroski also noted service providers and Children and Youth officials testified the children were doing well in their new environment, did not want to be returned to the biological mother and supported the efforts to be adopted. The Superior Court said it found no reason to disturb the judges ruling. We find no abuse of the trial courts discretion in concluding the relationship between Mr. James and the paternal aunt did not affect the decision by CYS, the court said.
POLICE BLOTTER
LOS ANGELES Engineers said Friday that the Curiosity rover happened to catch a picture of its own ride crash-landing on Mars a blink-of-an-eye serendipity that some dismissed as a statistical impossibility, but appears to have been confirmed by a thorough review of landing data. The final seconds of Curiositys eight-month-plus journey to Mars called for a spacecraft to lower the rover to the surface using a "sky crane" - three ropes. The ropes were then cut, and the last of the spacecraft, known as the "descent stage," cast itself toward the horizon. It crash landed, on purpose, about 2,000 feet away. A low-resolution photograph that Curiosity took seconds after landing Sunday night arrived immediately at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in La Canada Flintridge, Calif., which is managing the $2.5 billion mission for NASA. The photograph captured a pyramid-shaped blotch on the horizon. The same photo taken 45 minutes later with the same cam-

eras showed the same view of the Martian landscape, but no blotch. Die-hard space fans took to the Internet raising the possibility that the blotch was an image of the spacecraft crashing into the surface, an extraordinary coincidence considering the potential variables and the fact that the shutter was open for only 200 milliseconds. "We expected it to kick up quite a lot of dust," said Steve Sell, a member of Curiositys entry, descent and landing team. Still, the chances of the image being captured were "insane," one engineer said. On Friday, JPL reported that an examination of the mass of data Curiosity had sent home about its elaborate landing sequence showed that the photo did cap-
ture the craft crashing into the surface. The spacecraft that had deposited Curiosity on the surface took about 20 seconds to arc across the Martian sky and crash at about 100 mph. The photo was taken about 40 seconds after landing, but it appears that the tremendous impact sent up a cascade of Martian soil that was still hanging in the air when Curiosity snapped the photo. That could be due in part to the fact that Mars gravity is just 38 percent as strong as gravity on Earth. Many had dismissed the plume as dirt on the camera lens, but engineers pointed out that the initial photo was taken in stereo, with two side-by-side lenses. Both images picked up the same blotch.

COURT BRIEFS
WILKES-BARRE Prosecutors in the case of a teen charged in the December 2009 shooting death of his greatgrandfather have asked a county judge to send the case back to a district judge so that a preliminary hearing may be held. Prosecutors in the case of Cody Lee, 19, charged when he was 16 in the shooting death of 80-year-old Herbert Lee, also asked that he be moved from a juvenile detention center to the county prison. The attorneys requests came Thursday after a county judge this week ruled that Lees case would be tried in adult court. Lees attorneys had requested the case be heard in juvenile court because Lee was 16 at the time of the alleged incident. Lee has not yet had a preliminary hearing because of the uncertainty of which court would hear his case. A judge has not yet sent the case back to District Judge James Tupper for a preliminary hearing to be scheduled. WILKES-BARRE A housing developer sued by the sister of a woman who died in Sep-
tember inside a West Pittston home has asked a judge to throw out the lawsuit. Susquehanna River Shores, LLC, owner of the Susquehanna River Shores Development along the Susquehanna River, said in court papers filed this week the lawsuit filed by Mary Howells does not list specifics in many aspects, and therefore should be dismissed. Mary Howells, sister of Carol Ann Mikols, filed the suit in late July alleging Mikols, 62, of Exeter, died of hypoxia while in the basement of her sister, Ann Mikols, home on Sept. 9, 2011. The suit says oxygen in the basement was displaced by gases coming from a landfill that once existed on the land. The gases were pushed into the home, the suit says, after the river flooded. Susquehanna River Shores, LLC, through its attorneys Mark Perry and Dominick Georgetti, said the suit should be dismissed because there are no specifics on: how the developer acted maliciously or reckless in regard to construction of Ann Mikols home; the allegation of negligence; and no facts in the complaint show enough cause that punitive damages should be paid.
WILKES-BARRE The last of five men convicted of kidnapping and beating a woman in December 2010 was sentenced Friday to 2 to 5 years in state prison. Young Williams, 40, of WilkesBarre, was sentenced on a charge of criminal conspiracy, use of an electronic incapacitation device by Judge Tina Polachek Gartley. You have no idea what you did to me, Joan Rosengrant, the victim in the case, said before Williams sentencing. I cant sleep, I wont leave my house, I go nowhere. Its getting worse; its not getting better. Prosecutors say Williams, Lee Bernsdorf, Ronald Cottle, Timothy Buckner and Kevin Lewis,
all of Wilkes-Barre, were charged after Rosengrant was punched, stunned with a Taser and had boiling water poured on her feet over an 18-hour period on Dec. 30, 2010 into Dec. 31, 2010. Rosengrant told police she was forced into Bernsdorfs home where the men beat her. Police said the men originally approached Rosengrant about an ex-boyfriend who was incarcerated and allegedly robbed one of the men. She suffered cuts, burns and a fracture of the bones surrounding her eye as a result of the beating. I cant take back what happened, Williams said Friday. I could have stopped it and I apologize for that. Polachek Gartley said the case
has been a long road for everyone that has finally ended with Williams sentencing. There was much you could have done to stop this horrific assault, the judge said. Polachek Gartley said Williams, who has eight children, would want someone to help one of his daughters if they were put in the same position as Rosengrant. Bernsdorf, Cottle, Buckner and Lewis were sentenced in June on felony charges. Bernsdorf received three to six months in county prison; Cottle received six to 12 years in county prison; Buckner, four to eight years in state prison; and Lewis, two years, three months to four years, six months in state prison.

SCRANTON A former service technician for Benco Dental has filed a federal lawsuit against the company, alleging he and other technicians were required to work in excess of 40 hours per week but were not paid overtime. Douglas Creed of Clearwater, Kan., filed the suit Friday on behalf of himself and 290 other technicians nationwide that seeks damages under the Fair Labor Standards Act.
According to the lawsuit, Benco, which is headquartered in Pittston Township, employs technicians to install, repair and maintain dental equipment, computer networks and other associated equipment. The suit alleges Benco paid the technicians a weekly set rate, regardless of the number of hours they worked. The technicians sometimes worked as many as 60 hours in a week, but were not paid overtime. In early 2012, Benco changed
its policy and began paying overtime to technicians in certain areas, including Kansas City, but it did not implement that policy for all technicians nationwide. The suit, filed by attorney Rowdy B. Meeks of Kansas City, Mo., asks a judge to declare Benco violated the FLSA and to order it to pay all unpaid overtime due to impacted service technicians. Officials with Benco could not immediately be reached for comment Friday evening.

The federal government issued a media release Friday about West Pittstons potential placement on probationary status with the National Flood Insurance Program on Oct. 1, prompting local officials to complain the release was unnecessary and stated nothing new. This is something theyve already told everybody. All this does is fan a flame which everybody knows is already burning, said borough Solicitor Mark Bufalino. The Federal Emergency Management Agency, or FEMA, which issued Fridays
release, threatened probationary status in June after identifying flood plain management violations and program deficiencies that must be corrected. The deficiencies included the boroughs failure to show flood victims were complying with FEMA requirements, such as elevating their utilities above the flood plain, after September 2011 flooding that devastated a large portion of the municipality. Probationary status could force flood insurance policyholders to pay a $50 premium surcharge. Borough officials would have to show major progress in six months or risk suspension from the flood insurance program, which would
result in lost grants and loans for flood zone structures. Bufalino said borough officials are diligently developing and implementing corrective plans. Everything FEMA is asking of us, we continue to try to reply, Bufalino said. The federal governments compliance deadlines seem slightly arbitrary and have added to the stress level in the already stressed out community, he said. For example, the borough hired a trained and certified flood plain manager as required by FEMA, but this employee will need time to get up to speed. Rather than continuing to jump up and down on the back of the necks of those already down on the ground, all were looking for is a little cooperative realism, Bufalino said.
U.S. Sen. Bob Casey defended the borough and criticized FEMA in his own media announcement Friday, saying the agencys plan to put the borough on probationary Casey status is an unnecessary and counterproductive decision that wont improve the areas flood plan and could result in higher flood insurance rates for residents. Casey said FEMA should work with the borough on a flood protection plan instead of punishing the community. The FEMA release says the agency is committed to working with borough officials to achieve a positive flood insurance standing.

WILKES-BARRE Recent driving rains have caused some issues for local farmers, landscapers and golf courses. Larry OMalias Plains Township riverside farm was in fine shape overall, but hard rain storms Thursday night and Friday have caused noticeable damage to some of his crops, such as carrots and tomatoes. So far in 2012, the region has received 21.05 inches of rain, nearly 13 inches less than last
year over the same time period, according to the National Weather Service. And that includes 1.37 inches over the last 36 hours. OMalia said that just two weeks ago he was worried about how August would shape up for his crops. He said he picked some carrots and noticed the soil was wet deep down. OMalia said if it keeps raining, the problems will only get worse. He said hes noticed some cracking and splitting on his tomato crop caused by the influx of too much water.

DALLAS Cherise Pokorny felt fortunate she had the support of her family in helping her mentally ill brother, Mark Valanski, in his struggle to overcome his disability. During visits to the group home where Mark resided, Pokorny and her mother, Una Valanski, saw many people like him who had no one to care for them and ensure their well being, they said. There were people in there that no one came to see. No one cared about them, Una Valanski said. If they dont have family to help them out, who will? That question was the impe-
tus for Angel Medication, a nonprofit organization Pokorny is in the process of forming that helps purchase medications for mentally ill persons who cannot afford them. Pokorny, 39, of Dallas, formed the charity in memory of Mark, who died unexpectedly in 2009 at age 42 after developing an infection following surgery. On Aug. 25, she and her husband, Joseph, are sponsoring the second annual motorcycle run in Marks memory to raise funds for Angel Medication, which provides assistance through Community Counseling Services in Wilkes-Barre. Pokorny said she was motivated to help others like Mark after hearing stories of the simple acts of kindness he bestowed upon others, which were relayed to the family at Marks funeral.

SWOYERSVILLE Police said they recovered a vehicle and a cellphone stolen during a home invasion at a Courtdale residence while investigating a domestic dispute on Hill Street Thursday night. A 2006 Toyota Corolla and two iPhones were allegedly stolen when the residence of Joe and Donna Zambito, of North Street, Courtdale, was ransacked while the family slept early Tuesday morning. A basement window was pushed open to get inside the Zambitos house. Police investigating a domestic dispute on Hill Street recovered a Toyota Corolla outside the residence and an iPhone and its charger in the pocket of Zildjian Higg Zablotney, 19, address listed as homeless, according to the criminal complaint. Police allege in the criminal complaint they investigated an intoxicated male threatening to kill and cut people inside 52 Hill St., where Donald Cool, 40, resides, at about 10:30 p.m. Thursday. A woman claimed Zablotney choked her and threw her to the floor, the complaint says. Police spotted the Toyota Corolla parked outside the residence with a license plate from another car, the complaint says. Zablotney was charged with receiving stolen property, simple assault and harassment. Cool was charged with receiving stolen property. They were jailed at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $20,000 bail each. We want to thank Courtdale and Swoyersville police, Joe Zambito said Friday. Zambito claimed the vehicle, a laptop computer, two iPhones and other items were stolen during the heist at his residence. No charges have been filed in the burglary at the Zambito residence. Preliminary hearings are scheduled on Aug. 23 before District Judge David Barilla in Swoyersville.

State treasury delivers $24,572.63 check to region with message theres more.
By ANDREW M. SEDER [email protected]
PA State Treasurer Rob McCord gives Luzerne County a check for $24,000 from unclaimed funds.
Griffith, who didnt believe so but his staff initiated a search April 12 and found 109 credits, refunds and payments due to the county, ranging from $2 to $12,130.47. It added up to $24,572.63 that should have been in the countys coffers. Thats a lot of money here in Luzerne County, Lawton noted. Some of the checks ended up in the state treasury because of incorrect or incomplete addresses, Treasury spokesman Michael Smith said. Most of the uncashed checks dated back to 2003, 2004 and 2005 and were owed to multiple offices. The $12,130 check had been issued to the county commissioners from the state budget office in August 2004. Records show the check was sent to the county recreational complex in Forty Fort, and its unclear why it never made it to the commissioners office at the

courthouse in Wilkes-Barre. The oldest check, from 1989 for $41, was owed to the county domestic relations office from Northampton County. Smith said the Treasurers Office has long been alerting the public about the unclaimed property. Since McCord took over in 2009, he said there has been a stronger push was made to spread the word. He said in recent years, likely because of the poor economy, weve seen an uptick in claims. Lawton said the county will conduct an annual search for such funds in the future, but he hopes that new financial software and systems will keep the county from ever again being in this position.
NANTICOKE Greater Nanticoke Area School District Superintendent Anthony Perrone announced at Thursdays school board meeting the district has added emotional support classes to its curriculum. In addition, there will be three full-time speech therapists and two life-skills classes available to the students for the new school year. Perrone said the district has new teachers, new classes and is ready to go. Perrone also said there will be some changes in the cafeteria menu this year. The menu will feature whole grain breads, more vegetables and a maximum of two ounces of meat. The government mandated these changes, Perrone said. In other matters: the board: Approved music teacher Brad Bunnells request for eight performances or competitions
for the 2012-13 school year. The superintendent will decide individually which competitions the band will attend. Not all will be approved, due to the fiscal restraints. Accepted the resignations of furloughed teacher Ryan Kearney, as of July 10, as well as Henry Turoski Jr., strength and conditioning coach, for the 2012-13 school year.

EDWARDSVILLE Council President Dave Stochla announced on Wednesday that Kmart will reopen in the Mark Plaza on Aug 28. Theyre planning a soft opening on that date, explained Stochla. The grand opening is for the following week. Stochla said he is amazed at the progress the national chain has made at its Edwardsville location in the wake of extensive flood damage from Tropical Storm Lee last September. "The people in this area are ve-
ry anxious for Kmart to reopen," said Stochla. "Its been a long time coming, but its certainly going to be more convenient for West Side residents."

AUSTIN, TEXAS
WASHINGTON Al-Qaida has advanced beyond isolated pockets of activity in Syria and now is building a network of well-organized cells, according to U.S. intelligence officials, who fear the terrorists could be on the verge of establishing an Iraq-like foothold that would be hard to defeat if rebels eventually oust President Bashar Assad. At least a couple of hundred al-Qaida-linked militants are already operating in Syria, and
their ranks are growing as foreign fighters stream into the Arab country daily, current and former U.S. intelligence officials say. The units are spreading from city to city, with veterans of the Iraq insurgency employing their expertise in bomb-building to carry out more than two dozen attacks so far. Others are using their experience in coordinating small units of fighters in Afghanistan to win new followers. In Syria on Friday, rebel commanders appealed anew for new and better weapons from abroad, complaining that Assads forces have them badly outgunned from the air and on the ground. In fact, rebel leaders say that with so little aid coming to them from the U.S. and other nations, they are
ing danger posed by extremists who have joined rebels fighting the Assad government. Although the extremists are ostensibly on the same side as Washington by opposing Assad, U.S. officials fear their presence could fundamentally reshape what began as a protest movement for reform composed of largely moderate or secular Syrians. The opposition expanded into a civil war pitting Assads four-decade dictatorship against a movement promising a new, democratic AP PHOTO future for the country.

oversees basic training for every new American airman, officials said Friday. Col. Glenn Palmer was commander of basic training for the 737th training group at the Texas base, where more than a dozen military instructors in the past year have been investigated or charged with sexually assaulting recruits. Officials familiar with the decision said Palmer has been relieved from those duties, speaking on condition of anonymity because the announcement was not yet public. The officials said there was no indication Palmer was facing any criminal charges. In all, six instructors have been charged with offenses ranging from rape to adultery.
This was the third attack on coalition forces by their counterparts in a week.

The wife of a disgraced top Chinese politician was a depressed woman on medication but a willful murderer who poisoned a British businessman while in fear for her sons life, official media said Friday in what appeared to be a prelude to her conviction and punishment after a seven-hour trial. The official Xinhua News Agency in a 3,400-word report that was its most detailed accounting of the scandal that has shaken the countrys leadership said Gu Kailai and her codefendant confessed to intentional murder in the death of her business associate Neil Heywood last November. It said evidence showed she used cyanide to poison him in a Chongqing hotel room but also describes her as depressed and fearful that Heywood would harm her family factors that may bring leniency in her sentence.

WACO, Texas Naser Jason Abdo sat alone in court with his hands shackled and a white cloth secured over his mouth and neck. The soldier who went AWOL and plotted to kill other troops outside a Texas Army post remained defiant Friday as he was sentenced to life in prison, not asking for mercy and vowing to never end what he considers his holy war. I will continue until the day the dead are called to account for their deeds, Abdo said in a low, gravelly voice through the cloth mask. A federal judge sentenced Abdo, 22, to two life terms plus additional time. The federal prison system offers no chance of
parole. He was convicted of planning what he claimed would have been a massive attack on a Texas restaurant filled with troops from Fort Hood. Abdo referred to Maj. Nidal Hasan the Army psychiatrist soon to be tried in a deadly shooting rampage at that Army post as my brother. He said he lived in Hasans shadow despite efforts to outdo him. Abdo became a Muslim at age 17. Outside court, prosecutor Mark Frazier said Abdo had come close to carrying out the attack. U.S. Attorney Robert Pitman compared the plot to recent mass shootings at a movie theatre near Denver and a Sikh temple in suburban Milwaukee. In the wake of the tragic events in Colorado and Wisconsin, this is yet another reminder that there are those among us who would use or plan to use violence to

advance their twisted agenda, Pitman said. Arguing for a life sentence, Frazier had said Abdo still presented a threat. The young Muslims mouth was covered in court, Frazier said, because he had earlier spat his own blood at agents believing he was infected with HIV. That belief turned out to be wrong.

HARTFORD, CONN.
ST. LOUIS An American nuns group rebuked by the Vatican said Friday it would hold talks with the bishops appointed to overhaul the organization but would not compromise its mission. Sister Pat Farrell, president of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious, called a Vatican assessment charging the sisters with tolerating dissent a misrepresentation. But she said the more than 900 women who attended the groups national assembly this week decided they would stay open to discussion for now

with three bishops the Vatican appointed to oversee them. The officers will proceed with these discussions as long as possible but will reconsider of LCWR is forced to compromise the integrity of its mis-
sion, Farrell said at a news conference, where she declined to discuss specifics. The organization represents about 80 percent of the 57,000 Roman Catholic nuns in the U.S.
The St. Louis meeting was the groups first national gathering since a Vatican review concluded the sisters had serious doctrinal problems and promoted certain radical feminist themes that undermine Catholic teaching on allmale priesthood, birth control and homosexuality. The nuns also were accused of remaining nearly silent in the fight against abortion. Farrell acknowledged the nuns plan going forward was vague, but noted the process was to last five years and had only just started. The board is expected to meet soon with Seattle Archbishop Peter Sartain, who will be in charge of the overhaul. After the Second Vatican Council of the 1960s, many religious sisters shed their habits and traditional roles as they sought to more fully engage the modern world.
KABUL, Afghanistan An Afghan police officer shot and killed three U.S. Marines after sharing a meal with them before dawn Friday and then fled into the desolate darkness of southern Afghanistan, the third attack on coalition forces by their Afghan counterparts in a week. Thirty-one coalition service members have now died this year at the hands of Afghan forces or insurgents disguised in Afghan uniforms, according to NATO a dramatic rise from previous years. The assaults have cast a shadow of fear and mistrust over U.S. efforts to train Afghan soldiers and police more than 10 years after the U.S.-led invasion to topple the Talibans hardline Islamist regime for sheltering alQaidas leadership. The attacks also raise further doubts about the quality of the Afghan forces taking over in many areas before most international troops leave the country in 2014. Fridays deadly shooting took place in the volatile Sangin district of Helmand province, said U.S. military spokeswoman Maj. Lori Hodge. Sangin was a Taliban stronghold for years and has one of the highest concentrations of improvised explosive devices, or IEDs, in the country. A U.S. Defense Department official confirmed that the dead Americans were Marine Special Operations Forces. He spoke on condition of anonymity because the family notification process was not complete. Sangins district chief and the Taliban both identified the gunman as Asadullah, a member of the Afghan National Police who was helping the Marines train the Afghan Local Police. Taliban spokesman Qari Yousef Ahmadi said by telephone that the attacker joined the insurgency after the shooting. Now, he is with us, Ahmadi said. The district chief, Mohammad Sharif, said the shooting happened at a police checkpoint after a joint meal and a security meeting. The meal took place before dawn because of Ramadan, the month in which Muslims abstain from food during daylight hours. Compared to the 25 attacks this year that have killed 31 foreign troops, there were 11 such attacks and 20 deaths in 2011, according to an Associated Press county. Each of the previous two years saw five such attacks.

Polls suggest focus is giving Obama an edge in the race and appeal to middle class.

GOP presidential candidate and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney campaigns in Des Moines, Iowa.
GOP candidate starts to attack Obama at all sides as he looks to gain ground.
By PHILIP ELLIOTT Associated Press
DES MOINES, Iowa For months, Mitt Romney has had one main focus bludgeoning President Barack Obama on the economy. Now, the Republican presidential candidate has started poking at Obama from all sides as he looks to gain ground. In recent days, Romney has criticized Obama in TV ads and speeches on topics that include farm policy, transparency, military voting rights, welfare reform and religious freedom. Who shares your values? a new Romney ad asks and suggests that Obama doesnt. Republicans have spent weeks complaining both publicly and privately that Romneys economy-only focus wouldnt be enough to overtake Obama and that the certain GOP nominee needed to broaden his criticism. Specifically, these Republicans have been pressing Romney to go after Obama in areas that resonate with party loyalists as the close contest approaches its final push the sprint from the Republican National Convention later this month to the election in November. I understand the economy is the top issue, but you dont want to be so maniacally focused that you ignore everything else, said
Keith Appell, a Republican consultant who advises conservative groups. Theres always a risk of becoming too focused a horse with blinders and not seeing some of the other things around you. Campaigns need focus. But theres something to be said for peripheral vision when youre trying to hold a coalition together. The GOP, composed of advocates for smaller government, anti-tax activists, social conservatives and religious voters, long has been skeptical of the former Massachusetts governor and has reluctantly embraced him. But, Republicans say, the candidate needs to ensure that these core Republicans work on his behalf in the campaigns homestretch, knocking on doors and making phone calls to get backers to turn out at the polls. Romney, it seems, is heeding the advice, blasting Obama on issues that are certain to excite the partys conservative base. Romney advisers, for their part, say all the issues Romney has been raising lately have aspects that appeal to middle-class voters and buttress the campaigns central pitch on the economy. That focus on the middle class has been here since the beginning, says Romney adviser Kevin Madden. Still, he acknowledges: At this point in the campaign, we are sharpening it. Romney also is trying to push past a foreign trip that was riddled with missteps and a long stretch of the campaign in which he was under withering, sustained criticism from Obama.

proposal could hurt him in the fall. But some party operatives acknowledge that he is being damaged by declining to release more than two years of his own tax returns. I do think this has hurt the governor a little bit, said Steve Lombardo, a Republican pollster who worked on Romneys 2008 presidential campaign. Ironically, its really less about rich guy and more about transparency and honesty. So Team Romney has to find a way if theyre not going to release, which I dont think they will they have to find a way to demonstrate hon-
esty and transparency, attributes that people take very seriously in selecting a president. Maria Cardona, a Democratic strategist, said the tax criticism has really seeped into the American psyche and is affecting the way voters view Romney. Theyre thinking, this is not somebody who is going to fight for me. This is not somebody who even understands the world I live in, said Cardona, who was a senior adviser to Hillary Rodham Clintons presidential campaign four years ago. The Obama campaign ramped up its criticism of Romneys re-
fusal to release his tax returns Thursday with a new television advertisement that without evidence raises the prospect that the GOP challenger paid no taxes some years. Did Romney pay 10 percent in taxes? 5 percent? Zero? We dont know, the narrator says. The ad will run in Virginia, North Carolina, Florida and Ohio while Romney is on a bus tour through those states starting Saturday. Romney says he has paid taxes every year. But hes provided little documentation to back up his assertions.

The tea party adherent carries the GOP banner in the 118th District battle.

unopposed and be re-elected in a cakewalk. The Monroe County Republican Party called OConnor and asked him to take the tea party gear and trailer out of mothballs and run a write-in campaign. Needing 300 write-in votes to appear on the November ballot, OConnor garnered 318. He believes hes a better prepared and more seasoned campaigner this time, though he refuses to be called a politician and vows if elected he will not make a career of it. OConnor will not fundraise and will make a more concerted effort to attract Luzerne County voters. He won Monroe County by 500 votes in 2010 and if he can make inroads in Luzerne he may be more competitive. His name recognition, he said, might also help in the rematch. But he knows its an uphill battle in a district that favors Democrats and the Luzerne County-based candidate, both of which Carroll is. Some who drove by Friday honked their horns, gave a

thumbs up or rolled down their window to listen to a 30 second pitch while the light was red. Thats as much advertising as OConnor plans on doing. He said as a tea party candidate he may not be the darling of the Republican establishment but
party politics needs to be put aside in the interest of states rights, something he said too few in Harrisburg are protecting. The time has come for state legislators that know and understand and are up to the challenges that we face, OConnor said.
MILLVILLE Two brothers accused in one of the worst cases of animal hoarding in Pennsylvania history have pleaded guilty to animal cruelty less than a month after 185 Chihuahuas were seized from their home. Thomas and Albert Ambrosia of Benton pleaded guilty earlier this week to two counts each of cruelty and a dog law violation,
according to Columbia County court records. They were fined more than $500. Thomas Ambrosia, 59, said it was difficult for them to enter a plea since they treated the dogs like our boys and girls. But he told the Press Enterprise of Bloomsburg that they wanted to get this behind us. Veterinarians who checked the Chihuahuas plus two other dogs that were also removed
from the residence found no serious health issues, only minor eye, teeth and skin problems, and officials say they apparently came from a loving home. Acting on multiple tips, state dog wardens and state troopers executed a search warrant last month. They found the corpses of 30 Chihuahuas in a freezer, but the dogs apparently died of natural causes.
State law requires anyone who keeps, transfers or boards more than 25 dogs to obtain a kennel license and be inspected annually. Dogs also are required to have dog licenses and rabies vaccinations. Ambrosia said they applied multiple times for a kennel permit, but had been denied. He said he and his 54-year-old brother still have 10 older dogs.
WILKES-BARRE He calls himself an accidental legislator, and now he wants to be the first auditor to ever hold the office of state auditor general. John Maher, 53, a Republican state representative from Upper St. Clair near Pittsburgh, said Friday that one of his biggest accomplishments in the legislature was updating the Open Records Law to allow easier public access. If I do my job the way its supposed to be done, neither political party will want me to be reelected, Maher said. Pennsylvania deserves an auditor general who knows how to audit. Maher said fiscal responsibility in Harrisburg is needed more now than ever before. He said he will fight waste and fraud. Maher said, if elected, he would be the first certified public accountant/auditor to ever hold the office. I wont have to hire someone to do my job, he said. To stop waste and fraud, you have to be able to find it. I have decades of experience doing that. Maher is opposed in Novem-
ber by Democrat Eugene DePas2 0 1 2 quale, 41, of West ELECTION Manchester Township. Maher was appointed to the state legislature in 1997 and then won a special election to retain the seat he still holds. He wrote Pennsylvanias Open Records Law, a landmark law ensuring the people of Pennsylvania can have access to government records and hold politicians and government officials accountable for their actions. He authored the Lobbying Law, ending Pennsylvanias status as the only state in the nation without a law reining in lobbying. Now Pennsylvania citizens have a right to know who is paying a lobbyist in addition to putting controls on what lobbyists can do, Maher said. Maher hopes to become the first GOP auditor general since Barbara Hafer, who is the only Republican to hold the office in the last 50 years. He said he will keep an eye on the Marcellus Shale industry and the changes coming to health care. The auditor general needs to be tuned into areas where the most can go wrong, he said. In bad fiscal times, the public wants someone who can identify waste and fraud.

THE TIMES LEADER www.timesleader.com
ST. LOUIS The government slashed its expectations for U.S. corn and soybean production for the second consecutive month Friday, predicting what could be the lowest average corn yield in more than 15 years as the worst drought in decades grips major farm states. Nonetheless, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack, in a statement supplied exclusively to The Associated Press, insisted U.S. farmers and ranchers remain resilient and the country will continue to meet demand as the global leader in farm exports and food aid. The U.S. Agriculture Department cut its projected U.S. corn production to 10.8 billion bushels, down 17 percent from its forecast last month of nearly 13 bil-
lion bushels and 13 percent less than last year. That also would be the lowest production since 2006. The USDA, in its World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates report, now expects corn growers to average 123.4 bushels per acre, down 24 bushels from last year in what would be the lowest average yield in 17 years. Soybean production is now forecast at 2.69 billion bushels, a 12 percent decline from last year and well off the 3.05 billion bushels the USDA had expected last month. The expected average yield of 36.1 bushels per acre would be the lowest since 2003. Corn farmers had expected a record year just months ago, when they sowed 96.4 million acres the most since 1937. The USDA now predicts only 87.4 million acres will be harvested, although it notes the crop still could be the eighth-biggest in U.S. history. On Thursday, the U.N. food agency drew a direct correlation
between price hikes in basic food commodities and the months of parched conditions in farm states. The Rome-based Food and Agriculture Organization said in its monthly price report that its overall food price index climbed 6 percentage points in July, although it was well below the peak reached in February 2011. The FAOs index, considered a global benchmark used to track market volatility and price trends, measures the monthly price changes for a basket of food, including cereals, oils and fats, meat, dairy products and sugar. Severe drought punishing the U.S.s midsection has sent corn prices soaring, and expectations of crop damage from dry weather in Russia sent world wheat prices up 19 percent, according to the FAO. Spikes in the prices of staple foods have led to riots in some countries in recent years. Vilsack tried to tamp down such concerns Friday. Americans shouldnt see im-

mediate increases in food prices due to the drought, Vilsack said as he visited drought-stricken Nebraska. What is important going forward is that we continue to do all we can to help the farmers, ranchers, small businesses and communities being impacted by this drought. Rick Whitacre, a professor of tons of top soil at a property in the Poconos on Friday, he said. The heavy rain came through Sunday and washed it away. Thats the downside of these storms that come through with a vengeance. Kopec said the rain Thursday into Friday will help. My phone is starting to ring again, he said.

It made him a productive member of society. Without his medications he could not function, Valanski said. Mark was fortunate to have insurance to cover his medications, but they saw many others who had no help. Mental illness can qualify a person for Social Security disability benefits, but many times a person must go through several appeals before he or she is approved, Valanski said. A lot of them get discharged
agricultural economics at Illinois State University, said consumers may see modest price increases at grocery stores because corn is found in everything from cosmetics to cereal, soda, cake mixes and candy bars. He said the biggest price jump is likely to be a 4 to 6 percent increase for beef and pork, as many ranchers have sold Were pretty fortunate because weve improved the drainage on our course every year for the last 15 years, he said. Barletta said when it rains, the sprinkling system does not have to be utilized as much. With the real hot weather weve been having, we were pumping out a lot of water, Barletta said. But Id rather pay for utilities than have it raining all the time. Drew McLaughlin, the citys and they cant afford their medications. They just got out of the hospital and theyre going to end up back there, Valanski said.

livestock as pastures dry up and feed costs rise. Youre going to see the ripple of this go out for quite a distance, Whitacre said. The U.S. leads the world in exporting corn, soybeans and wheat, and the surging prices are most likely to hurt poor, food-importing countries, said a study by British charity Oxfam issued on the eve of the U.N. report. Vilsack said he has pressed Congress to pass a comprehensive, multi-year farm bill that gives farmers and ranchers more certainty in this tough time, while giving USDA tools to help those producers affected by weather-related events beyond their control. The USDA foreshadowed the new, lower yield projections earlier this week, when it reported half of the nations corn crop and 39 percent of its soybeans were rated poor or very poor. The nation hasnt seen drought damage this bad since 1988. administrative coordinator, said the city experienced some minor issues due to Thursdays heavy rains.

The Angel Medication charity is a noble effort to help vulnerable individuals struggling to afford needed medications. Community Counseling Services is proud to support this worthy cause, McGuire said. Pokorny said roughly $4,000 was raised through last years bike run and other donations.

POLICE BLOTTER
WILKES-BARRE City police are investigating an armed robbery that occurred at the Turkey Hill, 616 Hazle Ave., Thursday morning. Police said a person dressed in all-black clothing concealing his face with black-colored stockings and holding a pillow case entered the store just before 6 a.m. The thief claimed he was holding a handgun under the pillow case and demanded money from the clerk.

BUTLER TWP The board of supervisors received a petition Thursday night opposing a proposed pistol target range that would be situated near the townships Freedom Park. Sue Rossi, a resident who formerly served as the townships tax collector and currently operates a notary/insurance business, presented the petition. After the meeting, Rossi said another petition for a referendum on the Nov. 6 ballot to expand the board of supervisors from three to five members was delivered to the county courthouse. Rossi said the action stems from frustration with the current majority, which consists of Char-
les Altmiller and board Chairman Brian Kisenwether. Ransom Young is the minority supervisor. Rossi said Altmiller is one of the people proposing the pistol range, which she said was to be situated along the outer limits of the park, along Crisman Road, against the mountains. Altmiller circulated a petition of his own in which he sought the support of sportsmen and concerned citizens to establish and construct a pistol range on Freedom Park. Rossi said more than 300 people signed the petition opposing the range. We consider it unsafe to be firing weapons while kids are playing ball, she said. But Altmiller said the proposed site is on 88 acres owned by the township and is at least a mile from baseball fields. In addition, he said the range is intended to be situated in a ravine that which would serve as a safe-
ty barrier. Its a remote area where no one goes, Altmiller said, so we considered it would to be a good place for practice shooting. He said grant money is available to develop the site. He proposed that a fee could be charged to help sustain the range. Besides his petition effort, Altmiller, who formerly served as chief of police, said he has been considering an effort to place the question of a range as referendum on the November ballot. The plan to elect two additional supervisors, Rossi said, is to get township voters to approve the referendum this year. That would pave the way for candidates to run for nomination in the primaries of 2013. Prospectively, the nominees would be running with Young, the lone supervisor up for reelection next year. She said the election petition contained the signatures of more than 390 people.

recently heard that there are people who dont want our U.S. Olympians to be taxed for their medals. I understand that they work hard and are some of the top in what they do, but I have an issue with people fighting for our Olympians, and not our soldiers, to get tax breaks. For years, our soldiers have volunteered not to compete for medals, but possibly to sacrifice their lives for everyone elses freedom and rights. If our soldiers pay is taxed, then I dont think it should even be in question about the Olympians. Come on, get your priorities straight.

HE FIRST AND sureto-be-enduring image of Mars from the Curiosity rover looks like something out of a postapocalyptic novel. Dusty, mountainous, orange-tinged and deserted. What the Mars landing means, however, is anything but. Its not about the end of civilization as we know it. Its about a new frontier. In a statement released Monday, President Barack Obama said words that can be uttered only once: Tonight, on the planet Mars, the United States of America made history. What a proud moment for our nation. Landing the oneton, plutonium-fueled rover in and of itself was exceptional. Now, the scientists and engineers involved in the project get to use the rover to explore.
EDITORIAL BOARD
Should this have raised some red flags? Of course, but Paterno didnt ignore it. He reported it, as he should have done. Its been said that Paterno should have denied Sandusky the use of the gyms and showers, but emails clearly show that the attorney for Penn State told the administration that it couldnt deny him those privileges because of the retirement contract with Sandusky, which was given to him by Spanier, essentially. It seems, therefore, that the Paterno family is justified in its assertion that there is more to be learned before the proper judgments can be made. Lets see what happens. As to the NCAAs culture of football thing, its files are chock full of abuses of all kinds (many serious and sexual) at a lot of schools. If Sandusky had been the dean of the College of Agriculture or College of Science, would the administration have reacted in the same way to try to avoid a black eye for the university? Quite possibly!

NASA Administrator Charles Bolden has used the landing to knock back suggestions that the space agency had gotten old and creaky. John P. Holdren, the presidents science adviser, summed it up this way: If anybody has been harboring doubts about the status of U.S. leadership in space, well, theres a one-ton automobilesize piece of American ingenuity. And its sitting on the surface of Mars right now. If that statement doesnt kindle a spark of can-do spirit, youve spent too much time listening to the naysayers and demagogues who would have you believe that the hope, promise and spunk of the United States is dead. All we can say to that is, Go get em, rover.

ome time ago, the Supreme Court ruled it to be legal for a person or organization to contribute as much as they wish to a political candidate or party (the sky is the limit). This opens the floodgates for special interest groups and just about any other group that has an interest in the political climate of our country. Historically, the person with the most money (biggest war chest) wins the election (Mitt Romney in the past Republican primary and President Obama vs. Sen. John McCain in the 2008 presidential election). This scenario will most likely hold true in the upcoming presidential election. The candidate with the most money will win. What a way to run a railroad! This scenario can work well for either party, so nobody out there should start licking their chops. The only true winners will be the special interest groups, whatever they may be, and the media advertising sales departments. This is nothing new, but the Supreme Court decision did escalate the process. Can you imagine some of the possible scenarios this creates? Theoretically, a terrorist group could launder a donation and get it to whomever it wishes. There are many solutions to this problem, but its hard to fix something when the mechanics are in on the plot. A person could choose just about any legitimate problem, and if they discuss it in any depth, money is usually part of the problem if not the entire problem. I doubt that our Founding Fathers intended for things to be reduced to this level.

t is great to have two successful minor league teams (our Yankees and our Penguins); both have been a big plus for Northeastern Pennsylvania. We have a minor league basketball team and a new football team trying to make it happen in their sports leagues. I wish them success. Minor league sports are a tough venture. I was a big fan and season ticketholder of the Atlantic City Boardwalk Bullies of the East Coast Hockey League. The owner moved the Birmingham Bulls to Atlantic City. The Bullies lasted only four years, but had a winning record, loyal fans and won the Kelly Cup (ECHLs championship trophy) in their third year. The owner did the Atlantic City shuffle and sold the team to a California group. We have a worse problem in this region. Even though I know little about lacrosse, I bought a season ticket for our new professional team. Well, it folded before the team played one game. I and others were promised our money back. As of late July, Im still waiting. The phone number is no longer in service. I hope its business behavior wont affect our current sports teams or future teams. It would be nice to get a D-League basketball team (NBA Development League) to our arena.

tal of $24,600 for intense negotiations that led to a last-minute contract approval Aug. 24, days before school started. Board member Christine Katsock balked at the idea of voting for a 10-page, 4-year contract without a chance to read it, but other members argued there was no time to find an alternative. Katsock then called for an internal review of previous years of transportation provided by the district from 2009 to the present. The board agreed, prompting more work by Lupas, and according to the bills a review of the freshly-approved contract and work clarifying the language in it. The second biggest chunk of itemized work involved Kistler Elementary School. Lupas billed

ness Manager Leonard Przywara noted that some bills may have been for work done earlier in the year. There were no bills dated for December. Among the 66 pages of bills there were 917 itemized charges with some description of the work performed. Yet only 21 of those 917 itemized charges a scant 2.3 percent includes a date showing when the work was done. Lupas billed the most hours 191 for work on a bus contract, charging a total of $26,100. The bulk of that was 164 hours at a to-
163.5 hours at a cost of $21,825, almost all of which stemmed from problems with what the board considered as unsatisfactory work done on a new sidewalk guard rail and on the school boiler. Work on tax appeals tallied up to 65.5 hours, the third biggest chunk of the six months of billing, adding up to $11,825. That work involved either researching assessment appeals to determine if the district should challenge them, or challenging assessments. The bills note that in several instances the district won appeals, increasing assessed value on large properties and thus increasing tax payments. The high rate of billable hours from both Lupas and then-assistant solicitor Ray Wendolowski
combined, the two were paid more the an $500,000 in 2011 prompted the school board to work out an agreement making Wendolowski solicitor for the current school year at a salary of $195,000 while dropping the post of assistant solicitor. The price sparked sharp criticism from frequent board critic Bob Kadluboski, but the agreement requires Wendolowski to do almost all work requested by the board with no extra charges, except reverse tax appeals (seeking to get an assessed value increased). Wendolowski will do those on a contingency basis: If the appeal is successful he gets a percentage of the increase in tax revenue, otherwise he gets nothing. In addition to solicitor and as-

the plant would close Monday. The company began in 1945 in North Hills. Dove Venetian Blind Co. was founded by Phillip Dove and his son Nathan. It evolved with the changing marketplace into a window maker and relocated its operations to Hanover Township from the Philadelphia area in the early 1990s. A salesman who also did not want to be identified said even though the company made a good product, it had trouble lately providing it to customers. He estimated the company would have between $11 million and $12 million in sales this year. It was renowned as a fantastic window, but internal problems never got solved, he said. The companys filing with the state under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act provided a peek at the problems. Dove Industries Inc. is a faltering company which sought new capital or business in order to stay open and where giving notice would ruin the opportunity to get the new capital or business, the company said. Dove Industries Inc. was advised (Tuesday) that financing was no longer available to continue its operations. The plant closing also is caused by unforeseen business circumstances. The layoffs are permanent and the employees have been notified individually of their layoff date, the company said. Dove filed a WARN notice with the Virginia Employment Commission on Wednesday as well, listing Monday as the impact date of the plant closure. The company opened a manufacturing plant in Pulaski County in the southwestern part of the state in 2010. At the time it said it would create 100 new jobs and the company was eligible for state benefits and tax credit. Whether the company ever created 100 jobs could not be determined Friday. There have been layoffs at the plant and, according to the WARN notice, there were 52 employees remaining. On top of the bad news of the closings, the company early Friday morning reported the theft of two trucks loaded with approximately 175 windows from the Sans Souci plant. The empty box trucks were located on an access road off Vista Drive in the Honey Pot section of Newport Township.

A bartender at Liams Place, which Loughnane opened in April 2006, confirmed that he was out of the country and she didnt know of anyone authorized to speak on his behalf. She said she didnt know if Loughnane was aware that his truck had been impounded. A neighbor on West Liberty Street said Friday she last saw Loughnane Sunday night. She declined comment only to say Loughnane is a nice man. Police called the truck a vehicle of interest in the hit and run crash that claimed the life of Rebecca McCallick, 19, on Hazle Avenue on July 24. No charges have been filed and police have not said who was driving the vehicle that struck McCallick. City police Chief Gerard Dessoye said Friday: It is way too early to say what direction the investigation is going. The chief said he would have to speak with Detective David Sobocinski to find out how police located the truck, whether by a tip or a township police officer spotting the vehicle in Loughnanes driveway. Were continuously following up on any leads and tips we get, Dessoye said. How this particular information was received? The detective has been following up on leads since the crash happened. The truck was transported to the basement garage at police headquarters on North Washington Street. Police tape encircled the truck in the basement. Loughnane was cited by state police at Pocono with speeding while operating the Ford F350 on the Northeast Extension of the Pennsylvania Turnpike on Feb. 2, 2009. He pleaded guilty and paid a fine of $177.50, according to court records. McCallick was struck by a vehicle in front of her apartment at 199 Hazle Ave. at about 2:23 a.m. on July 24. She died at Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center. A woman who lived nearby on Hazle Avenue told reporters she heard tires screeching as if the vehicle had stopped and suddenly drove off, squealing its tires, when McCallick was struck. It was definitely a peel, like they were taking off, Mary Jean Humphrey told reporters on July 24. McCallick, a graduate of Crestwood High School in Mountain Top, was entering her sophomore year at Kings College in Wilkes-Barre.
SHOOTING
Continued from Page 1A
Tyler, of 121 Hill St., WilkesBarre, was found shot April 5 in front of 117 Hill St., where Yusiff lived. An initiative to improve city life began recently as a result of the youths death. The Building Bridges initiative was born when two Baptist ministers began working with Mayor Tom Leighton and the city to reduce crime and make the city safer for youth. Yusiff is the only one who has been charged in connection with Tylers death. Neither po-
lice nor prosecutors have fully disclosed what they believe happened when Tyler was killed. District Attorney Stefanie Salavantis said Friday after the twohour long hearing, which included discussions among attorneys, that she could not comment on the proceeding because of state law. Assistant District Attorneys Michelle Hardik and Mamie Phillips also attended Fridays hearing, as well as Yusiffs attorneys, Demetrius Fannick and Cheryl Sobeski Reedy. Several members of Tylers family attended the hearing wearing memorial shirts in his honor that read, Real love never dies.
Tylers grandparents and guardians, Willie and Carol Golden, said they did not wish to comment after Fridays hearing, nor did Tylers parents, Christine and Terrence Winstead. A man and woman were seen meeting with Sobeski Reedy after the hearing. It is unknown if they are related to Yusiff, who was wearing handcuffs as he was led out of the courthouse by juvenile probation officers. Salavantis has said because of the nature of the charges and Yusiffs age, the case cannot be discussed, and that a judge must seal the record and make any hearings closed to the public. If Yusiff were to be declared a delinquent, he would face a dis-
position hearing, where a judge could place him in a juvenile detention center until the age of 21, among other variations. Since the shooting, Yusiffs family has moved out of the Wilkes-Barre home and relocated to Monroe County. Yusiff told reporters the night Tyler was shot that he heard a gunshot and saw a man driving away in a red or burgundy, older model Ford Taurus. Immediately after the shooting, Luzerne County 911 broadcast a bulletin to be on the lookout for the vehicle. The search for the car has since withered without any explanation from investigators or Salavantis.
NEW YORK A surprise surge in gasoline prices is taking some of the fun out of summer. The national average for a gallon of gas at the pump has climbed to $3.67, a rise of 34 cents since July1. An increase in crude oil prices and problems with refineries and pipelines in the West Coast and Midwest, including a fire in California, are mostly to blame. Analysts dont expect gas prices to get as high as they did in April, when 10 states passed $4 a gallon and the U.S. average topped out at $3.94. But this is still unwelcome
news in this sluggish economy, since any extra money that goes to fill gas tanks doesnt get spent on movies and dinners out. The rising prices could also put pressure on President Barack Obama in the heat of his re-election campaign. When Phil Van Schepen recently went to fill up his dry-cleaning delivery van in Coon Rapids, Minn., he found a Post-it note a driver before him had placed on the pump faulting Obama for high gasoline prices. Its a reminder of his energy policies overall, which I dont agree with, said Van Schepen, who buys about100 gallons a week and finds he is spending about $40 more than he did in early July. Still, he said the Post-it was a bit much because the president isnt responsible for gasoline prices.
Analysts and economists agree, saying prices for crude oil and wholesale gasoline are set on financial exchanges around the world based on supply and demand and expectations about how those factors may change. The price at the pump in the U.S. fell more than 60 cents per gallon during the spring as the global economy slowed and turmoil in the Middle East seemed to subside. But crude oil is climbing again, rising to $94 a barrel from a low of $78 in late June. Production outages in South Sudan and the North Sea, Western sanctions that have cut the flow of Iranian oil, Irans threat to block tankers passing through the vital Strait of Hormuz, and fears that the violence in Syria could escalate into a wider regional conflict have driven up oil pric-

es. Gas usually costs more in the late spring and summer because refiners have to make more expen-
sive blends of gasoline to meet clean air rules and because the summer driving season boosts demand.
JOLIET, Ill. The defense at Drew Petersons murder trial lashed out at the believability of a key state witness on Friday, accusing her of jazzing up her testimony to improve her odds of profiting from a movie and book deal. The sister of Kathleen Savio, Petersons third wife, testified that Savio once told her he had put a knife to her throat, then warned her he could kill her and make it look like an accident. Peterson, a former suburban Chicago police officer, is accused of killing Savio in 2004. She was terrified, Susan Doman said, recalling her sisters demeanor when she recounted the incident. Peterson, 58, has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder. Savio was found dead in her bathtub with a gash on her head and her hair soaked in blood, though Peterson wasnt charged until after his fourth wife, Stacy Peterson, disappeared in 2007. Peterson isnt charged in Stacy Petersons disappearance. During cross examination, the contract that Doman signed in 2009 was projected across a courtroom screen. Defense attorney Joe Lopez noted that it guaranteed Doman at least $30,000 if the movie made it to theaters. The occasionally rattled Doman repeatedly insisted her primary motive was to get word out about victims of domestic violence, saying her sister was among those victims.

LONDON Eyeing the trackside clock as she approached the finish line, Carmelita Jeter pointed the black baton in her left hand at those bright orange numbers. She wanted to make sure everyone saw what she saw: The United States was breaking the world record in the womens 4x100-meter relay and it wasnt even close. Allyson Felix, Tianna Madison and Bianca Knight built a big lead, and Jeter brought it home Friday night, anchoring the U.S. to its first Olympic gold medal in the sprint relay since 1996 with a time of 40.82, more than a half-second better than a record that had stood for 27 years.

The United States Lebron James slams a dunk during a mens basketball semifinal game against Argentina. The Americans won the game 109-83 and will now face the Spanish team in Sundays gold medal game. The matchup is a rematch of the gold medal game four years ago in Beijing.
Its an absolutely unreal feeling. It just feels like for so long, we looked at womens sprints and the records were so out of reach. To look up and see we had a world record, it was just crazy, said Felix, who gets a shot at a third gold in the 4x400 final Saturday. I didnt think that was going to happen. Jamaica won the silver medal in a national record of 41.41 seconds, with a team of 100 champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, 100 bronze medalist Veronica Campbell-Brown, Sherone Simpson and Kerron Stewart. All their girls are in top shape this year. You cant say they didnt deserve it. They prepared for it and they came out here and they delivered, FraserPryce said. For us, its back to the drawing board.

LONDON LeBron James turned away from his teammates gathered in the center circle and waved to the fans as if to say: See you Sunday. Right where the U.S. mens Olympic basketball team always expected to be, in the gold medal game, against the opponent it figured to see again. Anything less than this would have been unsatisfying for us, Carmelo Anthony said. We believe that we could get here, and were here now. We got one game left.

Everyone said that this is the game they wanted to see. We look forward to it. Were happy as a team were able to be back in this position. Weve got to defend, weve got to rebound, weve got to share the ball. The Americans have said they believe this team is better than the 08 squad, and they are certainly more potent with a chance to end up outscoring the original Dream Team in 1992.

PHILADELPHIA Roy Halladay pitched eight innings and Chase Utley hit a tiebreaking, two-run homer in the eighth to lift the Philadelphia Phillies to a 3-1 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday night. It was the second straight outstanding outing for Halladay (6-6), who missed 42 games while on the disabled list with a strained lat. He returned July 17 and struggled in his first three starts back, going 0-1 with a 5.82 ERA. He threw seven innings in a 3-0 victory over Arizona on Saturday.
Reds 10, Cubs 8
16 games. The Braves played their first in a stretch of 20 straight games, this one without Chipper Jones. The All-Star third baseman said he was out with back tightness caused by the bed in his New York hotel room.
Dodgers 5, Marlins 2
CHICAGO Rookie Todd Frazier doubled twice and drove in four runs, Aroldis Chapman came out of the bullpen to stop an eighth-inning rally attempt and the Cincinnati Reds beat the Chicago Cubs to end their season-high losing streak at five games. Ryan Ludwick hit a two-run homer into a 24 mph wind in the third against Justin Germano (1-2) as the NL Central leaders built a 5-1 lead. Ludwick also doubled, walked and matched his career best with four runs.
Braves 4, Mets 0
MIAMI Hanley Ramirez drove in two runs playing for the first time against the team that traded him last month, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Miami Marlins. Ramirez, who spent seven seasons with the Marlins before being dealt away July 26, broke a tie in the sixth inning with an RBI single. He added a 40-foot single with the bases loaded in the seventh.

NEW YORK Paul Maholm pitched a three-hitter in his second start for Atlanta and the Braves got two-run homers from Jason Heyward and Dan Uggla to beat the New York Mets. Heyward connected in the first inning to help spoil Matt Harveys home debut with the Mets. Uggla went deep in the eighth off reliever Josh Edgin as Atlanta won for the 13th time in
PITTSBURGH Chase Headley homered from both sides of the plate for the first time in his career and drove in five runs to rally the San Diego Padres to a victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. Headley hit a three-run home run to cap a six-run fifth inning that tied the game 7-7. His two-run blast in the seventh put San Diego ahead 9-8 after Rod Barajas had hit an RBI single for Pittsburgh in the sixth.

BUFFALO, N.Y. Chris Dickerson powered the Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre offense, which scored 10 runs and recorded 16 hits in its 10-4 victory Friday. Dickerson fell just shy of the cycle with three hits including a lead-off home run to start off the game, an RBI double and an RBI single. Dickersons lead-off blast was a sign of things to come for the Yankees as they rattled off another seven runs to secure the win. After Dickerson gave the Yankees an early lead, Buffalo answered in the bottom of the first when Josh Satin hit a two-run blast over the left field wall. Buffalo added another run in the bottom of the second to give the Bisons a 3-1 advantage. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre regained the lead in the top of the third when Eduardo Nunez hit an RBI single and Ronnie Mustelier grounded into a fielders choice to give the Yankees a 4-3 advantage. Buffalo responded again in the bottom half of the inning when Zach Lutz doubled to right field to tie the game at four. The Yankees battled back in the top of the fourth when Dickerson recorded his second hit of the game on an RBI double, giving Scranton/Wilkes-Barre a 5-4 lead. The Yankees added another run in the top of the fifth on a wild pitch. Meanwhile, starting pitcher Ramon Ortiz settled down and didnt allow a run in the last three innings he pitched. The Yankees continued to build their lead in the seventh when Francisco Cervelli hit an RBI ground-rule double to left field. Melky Mesa followed up Cervelli with a single to right field, which increased the Yankees lead to 8-4. Cory Wade replaced Ortiz after the sixth inning and in two innings of work struck out three and allowed no hits to keep the Yankees lead at 8-4. In the top of the ninth, the Yankees added two insurance runs on RBI sinlges off the bats of Darnell McDonald and Dickerson to give Scranton/Wilkes-Barre a 10-4 lead. Juan Cedeno retired the side in order in the bottom of the ninth to secure the victory for the Yankees. Ortiz earned the victory on the mound for the Yankees, while Elvin Ramirez was credited with the loss for Buffalo. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre will face off against Buffalo again tonight at 7:05 p.m.

TORONTO Ichiro Suzuki matched a career high with five RBIs and Freddy Garcia won in Toronto for the first time in more than a decade, leading the New York Yankees to a 10-4 victory Friday night over the injury-riddled Blue Jays. Mark Teixeira hit his 22nd homer to help the AL East leaders win their third consecutive game and snap a threegame skid at Rogers Centre. New York had not won three straight since sweeping Toronto at Yankee Stadium from July 16-18. Garcia (6-5) allowed two runs and five hits in six innings to win back-to-back starts for the second time this season.

Compiled by PAUL MONTELLA Aug. 11 1907 In the second game of a doubleheader, shortened by agreement, Ed Karger of the St. Louis Cardinals pitched a seven-inning perfect game, beating the Boston Braves 4-0. 1926 Tris Speaker of Cleveland hit his 700th career double, but the Indians lost to the Chicago White Sox, 7-2. The double came in the third inning off Joe Edwards. 1929 Babe Ruth hit his 500th career home run in the second inning off Willis Hudlin at Clevelands League Park. The homer was Ruths 30th of the year, but it wasnt enough as the Indians beat the Yankees 6-5. 1951 Robin Roberts of the Philadelphia Phillies beat the New York Giants 4-0, dropping the Giants 13 12 games behind the first-place Brooklyn Dodgers. 1961 Warren Spahn of the Milwaukee Braves scattered six hits to beat the Chicago Cubs, 2-1, for his 300th career victory. 1970 Philadelphias Jim Bunning beat the Houston Astros 6-5 to become the first pitcher since Cy Young

NEW ORLEANS A judge has heard arguments on the NFLs motion to dismiss Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilmas lawsuit seeking to overturn his bounty suspension without making a ruling. U.S. District Judge Ginger Berrigan on Friday urged all parties to work toward a settlement. The judge could potentially rule on Vilmas request to be allowed to temporarily return to the Saints while the case proceeds. When Vilma left the courthouse, quarterback Drew Brees gave his teammate a hug and pat on the back. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has suspended Vilma for the entire 2012 season, saying the Saints linebacker was among the ring leaders of a program that offered Saints defenders improper cash bonuses for injuring opponents.
PACKERS
MILWAUKEE Free agent running back Cedric Benson has visited the Green Bay Packers, who may be looking to boost their depth at running back. Agent Eugene Parker confirmed Friday that Benson visited Green Bay, but did not indicate that a deal was in place. ESPN reported earlier Friday that Benson had visited the team and was expected to sign. Benson is a free agent after four seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals. He had 273 carries for 1,067 yards and six touchdowns rushing last season and has surpassed the 1,000-yard rushing mark in each of the past three seasons. The Packers did not re-sign veteran free agent Ryan Grant in the offseason, leaving James Starks as the most experienced member of a young backfield.
PHILADELPHIA While compassionate fans showed their support for Andy Reid, most of the Philadelphia Eagles gave a boo-worthy performance in their preseason opener. The first-team offense went threeand-out twice and Michael Vick barely escaped serious injury when he hurt his thumb on his last play. The starting defense allowed an opening drive that lasted 9:48 and gave up 10 points on two possessions. Still, the Eagles (No. 8 in the AP Pro32) walked away with a 24-23 win over Pittsburgh when Alex Henery kicked a 51-yard field goal with 12 seconds left Thursday night. That wont cut it in the regular season. I was proud of the way the 3s and the 4s finished the game, Reid said. I thought they did some good things. We have some work to do with the 1s and the 2s. It wasnt good enough. The execution was off, and the tackling and blocking were off. So we have to go back and make sure we focus in on those things and get ourselves better. The 1s clearly have to get better in a lot of areas. Penalties were way up, and just things that were not very smart football. The Eagles were missing wide receiv-
er Jeremy Maclin and tight end Brent Celek, and Pro Bowl left tackle Jason Peters is likely out for the season. Vick completed 3 of 4 passes for 6 yards, and then banged his thumb on center Jason Kelces helmet. X-rays were negative and the three-time Pro Bowl quarterback expects to practice Saturday. All-Pro running back LeSean McCoy carried once for a 2-yard loss, and the offense simply couldnt get in a rhythm. Neither could the defense, which was missing starting ends Jason Babin and Trent Cole and safety Nate Allen. Rookies Fletcher Cox and Mychal Kendricks made their debuts with the first unit and so did two-time Pro Bowl middle linebacker DeMeco Ryans, who was acquired in a trade. I think we have to work on securing our gaps instead of just trying to make every play, Kendricks said. We just need to take care of our responsibilities first. I think first game, guys go out there and were hyped up and we wanted to do more than what we should have been. All we have to do is do our job and not try to make every play. That was the first game; second game were going to be even better. It was a difficult week for the team and the entire organization, which rallied around the Reid family. Garrett Reid, the oldest of five children for Andy and Tammy Reid, was found dead Sun-

day morning in his dorm room at Lehigh University where he was assisting the teams strength and conditioning coach during training camp. His funeral was held on Tuesday and more than 900 people, including frontoffice executives and coaches from other teams came to pay their respects. Perhaps the emotions factored into the way the Eagles played. It was tough. Were human and we
have to deal with reality and what is going on in our lives at the time, Vick said. Theres no excuses. We could have done a better job. The ones, the offense and the defense, could have done a better job in moving the ball and stopping the Steelers offense and we didnt do it but well go back and watch the film and correct it. Thats why were professionals.
MIAMI The agent for David Garrard says the Miami Dolphins quarterback will undergo arthroscopic knee surgery that is expected to sideline him for two to four weeks. The recovery timetable likely takes Garrard out of the competition to win the starting job for the season opener in four weeks. Garrards knee had been sore for a few days, and following an examination he decided to undergo surgery rather than deal with the issue throughout the season, said his agent, Al Irby. The decision came with Garrard about to make his Dolphins debut in their exhibition opener Friday night against Tampa Bay.

OXNARD, Calif. All those young wideouts lining up for a chance to be the No. 3 receiver for the Dallas Cowboys are getting some extra chances. With Miles Austin dealing with hamstring issues again, Kevin Ogletree is getting extra snaps in practice with the first team and Cole Beasley has come back strong after leaving camp for two days last week because of personal reasons. Dwayne Harris, Tim Benford and Andre Holmes also could get more playing time in the preseason opener Monday night at Oakland. Coach Jason Garrett repeatedly says injuries provide opportunities for players. With Austin out, he said Friday that gives the young receivers a chance to show what they can do.

64.1. Browns 19, Lions 17 DETROIT Jeff Wolfert kicked a 45-yard field goal with 28 seconds left to lift the Cleveland Browns to a win over the Detroit Lions on Friday night. Detroit (No. 11 in the AP Pro 32) stopped Adonis Thomas on a 2-point conversion run with 6:05 left to keep the lead, but couldnt run enough clock to keep the ball away from the Browns. The Lions last shot ended when rookie Kellen Moore was intercepted by David Sims at the Cleveland 36 with 34 seconds left. The banged-up Browns (No. 30) took another hit when rookie Brandon Weeden threw to Mohamed Massaquoi and the wide receiver left the game with a head injury. Weeden was 3 of 9 for 62 yards with an interception and a fumble. Bucs 20, Dolphins 7 MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers got off to a good start under new coach Greg Schiano, scoring touchdowns on their first two possessions in a preseason win over the Miami Dolphins. Starting quarterback Josh Freeman left the game after playing only one series, but completed 4 of 5 passes for 41 yards. LeGarrette Blount finished off the drive with a 1-yard touchdown plunge on fourth-and-goal. Ryan Tannehill had a promising debut for Miami (No. 27 in the AP Pro32), completing 14 of 21 passes for 167 yards, including an 11-yard touchdown to tight end Charles Clay in the third quarter. David Garrard was scheduled to start for the Buccaneers (No. 26 in the AP Pro32) after being listed first on the depth chart, but his agent confirmed Friday hes slated to have knee surgery.
ST. LOUIS Jeff Fisher has conveyed cool, calm leadership from the start of his first training camp with the St. Louis Rams. That cant hurt a team coming off a 2-14 season. Quarterback Sam Bradford said after Friday nights practice that Fisher, rebuilding the franchise after a year away from the NFL, has not changed a bit so far. The Rams open Sunday at Indianapolis, also coming off a two-win season. The Rams were 4-0 in the preseason last year before crashing when the games counted. Fisher wants to win, but also wants to see how his rookies respond to game situations, wants to see veterans execute the playbook and wants to see a clean game. Fisher said hell try to get early playing time for as many players as possible, offering a better read if theyre facing the Colts first or second units.
Patience, commitment and faith. Those qualities are just as important in developing NFL quarterbacks as strong arms, good vision and a love for the game. Super Bowl winning coaches and current offensive coordinators who have worked with some of the NFLs elite passers agree that any other approach simply wont work, no matter how talented the quarterback. With such an influx of young arms in starting spots throughout the league 11 teams could have No. 1 QBs with three or less years of pro experience, although one is 28-year-old rookie Brandon Weeden in Cleveland the teaching regimen is more intense than ever. Yet, it still needs to be old school. The key is to commit to one guy once you decide he is the player who you think is it, Browns President Mike Holmgren says. You know you will go through some bumps and bruises with him, you will get criticized, but you have to commit and then stick with it. There needs to be a mutual trust between coach and player, and a need for sticking by your guns. Be willing to take the heat. Hopefully you are in a position with the owner where there wont be any knee-jerk reactions. With the upcoming change in ownership in Cleveland, its uncertain that Holmgren and his hand-chosen staff led by coach Pat Shurmur and offensive coordinator Brad Childress, will have that stability. But they certainly have the credentials to turn Weeden into a star. Holmgren, of course, has worked with a Hall of Fame worth of quarterbacks, including Joe Montana, Steve Young and Brett Favre. Childress helped make Donovan McNabb into a winner. Shurmur nurtured Sam Bradford in his first pro season, and the Rams signal-caller was the 2010 Offensive Rookie of the Year. They all follow the same guidelines, whether they come from the Bill Walsh, West Coast offensive coaching tree, or from another. Its also important to have continuity with the head coach and offensive coordinator and the player, Holmgren says. It only makes it that much harder when youre changing coordinators or offensive systems. Hes going to be all screwed up in the beginning, anyway, so you need to provide stability.

The bronze went to the Ukraine in 42.04. Madison ran the opening leg, and Felix the second. Then, with Knight approaching for the final handoff, Jeter took nine strides, reached her hand back and took a perfect exchange. Jeter was staring at the clock as she covered the final 10 meters and she jutted the stick in that direction. I saw the huge lead that we have, and I looked up on the board and saw the time flash, and I was so confused, Felix said. I was like, That is not a 4x100 time. I was waiting, and then I saw the world record, and I was like, This is insane. It was just a beautiful thing to see. As soon as Bianca passed to Jet, it was done. Afterward, the quartet of champions paused to watch a replay of their record performance on the scoreboard at 80,000-seat Olympic Stadium. When Jeter
was shown crossing the finish line, Knight punched the air. The perfect trip around the track ended a string of disappointments for the U.S. in the event. In Athens eight years ago, Lauryn Williams was involved in a bad exchange in the final, leaving her team without a medal. In Beijing four years ago, the Americans didnt even reach the final because Torri Edwards and Williams bobbled the last exchange in the semifinals. That marked the first time since 1948 that the U.S. wasnt involved in the womens 4x100 medal race at the Summer Games. This time they were back in the final and now theyre champions again, too. Its a relief. Its a joy. Its everything, Felix said. We went into this race and it was the most comfortable Ive seen this team. We were laughing and smiling. Weve never been like that. We were confident. We felt good. We were confident in the passes, and it showed. And Williams even gets a gold medal this time, because she ran Philadelphia. Orlando also gets five draft picks over five years. A primary goal for our basketball team is to achieve sustainability while maintaining a long-term vision. We feel this deal puts us in apositiontobeginbuildinginthat direction, Magic general manager Rob Hennigan said. In addition to the six players joining our team, we will be in a position to maximize our salary cap flexibility in the near future, as well as utilize the multiple draft picks we have acquired going forward. The Lakers pulled off the deal and somehow kept Pau Gasol in the process something many didnt expect when the Lakers first started getting mentioned in the Howard trade mix. The trade was announced during the Spain-Russia semifinal matchup at the Olympics. Gasol scored 16 points, helping the Spanish team reach the gold medal game with a 67-59 win. Afterward, that was secondary. He was still with the Lakers, and now has the games most dominant big man alongside him. Thats big news, Gasol said. Huge. Ive been involved in so many talks and so many rumors. I feel relieved. Im anxious and excited to be back with our team. The Magic said they were also getting a second-round draft pick from Denver next year, a firstround pick from either Denver or homage of the rich coal mining history of the Scranton/WilkesBarre area combined with the ferociousness of the black bear, no one will want to mess with them on the field. The natural setting of PNC Field will be the perfect den for the Black Diamond Bears. Fireflies Watch the Fireflies light up the night sky at PNC Field in 2013.

a leg in Thursdays semifinal. Talking about the botched handoff is history now, Madison said. She has completely obliterated that from her record. The U.S. performance was part of a speedy night on the track, even if Usain Bolt wasnt around: The U.S. and Jamaica turned in two of the five fastest mens 4x100 relays in history to set up a showdown in Saturdays final. And in the 4x400, Ramon Miller of the Bahamas overtook Angelo Taylor of the United States to give his country its first mens Olympic gold medal in any sport. Miller powered Bahamas to a time of 2:56.72, 0.33 seconds better than the U.S., which had won that event at every Olympics since 1984. Trinidad and Tobago took third. The United States was missing three injured runners, including Manteo Mitchell, who finished out his preliminary lap Thursday on a broken leg and was there to watch Friday, leaning on crutches. Without him, this wouldnt be possible, said Tony McQuay, Mitchells roommate in the athNew York in 2014, a conditional first-round pick from Philadelphia and a conditional secondround pick from the Lakers in 2015, and a conditional firstround pick from the Lakers in 2017. Howard averaged 20.6 points and 14.5 rebounds in 54 regularseason games for Orlando last season. In eight seasons with the Magic, he averaged 18.4 points and 13.0 rebounds. And he would figure to make the Lakers even more of a title contender. The Western Conference is loaded Oklahoma City is young, talented and likely to be driven after losing the NBA Finals to the Miami Heat, San Antonio was spectacular last season, the Los Angeles Clippers are rising, and the Nuggets could be much better with Iguodala. But the Lakers have clearly loaded up to make a run at what would be Bryants sixth title next season. Steve Nash was added from Phoenix to run the offense, and now theyve got Howard to occupy the low post. Unreal! Bryant wrote. The Nuggets believe Iguodala is a good fit.

letes village. He held it down for the USA. Sorry we couldnt give him the gold. The South African team finished last, falling way behind before double-amputee Oscar Pistorius even got his hands on the baton for the anchor leg. In the 4x100 semifinals, dash bronze medalist Justin Gatlin ran the anchor leg as the Americans broke a 20-year-old national record by finishing in 37.38 seconds. The old mark of 37.40 was initially established in 1992 with Carl Lewis on the last leg, and later equaled. Jamaica ran 37.39 in the other semifinal and that was without Bolt, who got a chance to rest a day after adding gold in the 200 to his gold in the 100 but is expected to run the anchor in Saturdays final. Were going to figure out a way to go out there and compete with them, Gatlin vowed. Were not scared of them. The American men are back in the final after missing it in Beijing when Patton and Gay mishandled the baton exchange in a preliminary heat.
never seen anything like it. In the third straight Olympic semifinal between the U.S. and Argentina, the Americans kept pulling ahead only to see the Argentines climb back in until James and Durant finally put them away for good. Manu Ginobili scored 18 points for Argentina, which plays Russia for the bronze medal on Sunday. Argentina hung around until early in the second half, just as it did Monday in the final game of pool play. And just like that night, the Americans hit them with a wave of dunks and 3-pointers in the third quarter that turned it into a romp. While not quite as explosive as their 42-17 period in Mondays 126-97 win, this one had just as many highlights. Ahead by only four after Ginobili opened the third quarter with a 3-pointer, the Americans pulled away with James strength and Durants shot. Durant made two 3-pointers in an 8-0 spurt that pushed the lead to 13, and when Argentina got back within eight, the NBAs MVP and runner-up teamed up to blow it open. James had a basket and drove for a powerful dunk while being fouled. Durant followed with consecutive 3-pointers, James tipped in a miss, and suddenly the lead was 19, 72-53, with 1:30 left in the period. We had a great run in the first half, Ginobili said. We started the third very well. And then we blinked. It became a runaway in the fourth when Anthony hit three 3-pointers in 42 seconds, the American bench spilling onto the floor as he strutted back to midcourt after the last one made it 93-64. Otherwise, there was little celebrating for the Americans during or after the game. The party they want cant come until Sunday afternoon. Its been a fun ride, but we want to compete on Sunday,

Russias Evgeniya Kanaeva performs during the rhythmic gymnastics individual all-around qualifications Friday in London. GYMNASTICS - RHYTHMIC
Russias Evgeniya Kanaeva finished on top of qualifying, putting her in position to defend her Olympic title. Kanaeva had been second behind Russian teammate Daria Dmitrieva going into the final rotation after a rare mishap in her hoop routine on the first day. But Kanaeva performed flawlessly in the ribbon, giving her 29.400 points and the top spot in the standings with 116.000. Dmitrieva was 1.45 points behind, and Azerbaijans Aliya Garayeva was third. The final is Saturday. Russia also qualified in first place for Sundays group final after holding off a challenge from Italy.
LONDON It looks like a mismatch of Olympic-size proportion. The dominant U.S. womens basketball team, which has won 40 straight Olympic games, seeks its fifth consecutive gold medal Saturday against upstart France, which has never won any medal in womens hoops. Theyre a team nobody really talked about heading into the tournament, but personally I knew that was going to be a team we might have to face, said U.S. point guard Sue Bird. France is undefeated in the tournament along with the U.S., although the Americans have beaten teams by 34 points a game, France just eight. Nonetheless, Bird knows a win wont be automatic. Ive played with all their girls and
know how talented they are, she said. Both teams are assured of walking away with at least the silver medal, but anything less than gold for the UP NEXT Americans would be considered a GOLD MEDAL monumental failGAME Team USA ure. vs France The U.S. has 4 p.m. today cruised through TV: NBC the Olympics during its impressive run. Only one team has come within single digits of the Americans since the streak started in 1996. They have only lost once in major international competitions since the Atlanta Games the lone blemish coming against Russia in the semifinals of the 2006 world championship. The players are aware a loss would be devastating. This is USA Basketballs streak, Candace Parker said. Were just trying
not to be the people that end it. I want a second gold medal. There are people that want a third. And some are looking for their first. So all of us are fighting for something in our own way. The U.S. faced its first challenge of the London Games in the semifinals when Australia took a four-point halftime lead. It was the first time in 12 years that the Americans had been trailing at the half. There was no panic or worry. They just stepped up their defense and vanquished the Australians, winning by 13 points. Still, Bird said the Americans arent feeling any pressure heading into Saturdays final. Weve been taking it one game at a time all along, so this is just the next one, she said. Obviously there is a lot more at stake, but we really arent thinking that way. France wont be playing tight either. The French team has already made great strides clinching the countrys first medal ever in womens basketball. The victory over Russia in the semi-
finals set off a wild celebration for the unbeaten French, who have been on the rise in womens basketball over the past few years. They won the European Championship in 2009 and qualified for the Olympics for the first time since the 2000 Sydney Games where they finished fifth. In this tournament France has already defeated Australia in an overtime thriller and now topped Russia twice. A win over the Americans would be incredible. Nobody talks about us. We dont exist in the Olympic Village, said French coach Pierre Vincent. The only way to exist is to win. I told the girls in the locker room, if we win, we will exist. The French have been led by flashy point guard Celine Dumerc. She has been the catalyst for this remarkable run. Her 3-pointer with 0.2 seconds remaining in overtime helped beat Britain in the preliminary round. She also hit a big 3-pointer against Australia and two clinching free throws in the teams four-point win over Canada.
Ous Mellouli of Tunisia won the grueling 10-kilometer race to become the first swimmer to win medals in the pool and open water at the same Olympics. Mellouli pulled away from a small group of leaders in the fifth of six laps and finished in 1 hour, 49 minutes, 55.1 seconds in the murky waters of the Serpentine in Hyde Park. He also won bronze in the 1,500-meter freestyle last week. It was the second gold of Melloulis Olympic career. He also took the 1,500 at the 2008 Beijing Games. Thomas Lurz of Germany was second, 3.4 seconds behind, and first-time Olympian Richard Weinberger of Canada grabbed the bronze.

Lightweight Vasyl Lomachenko and two Ukrainian teammates advanced to gold-medal bouts. Lomachenko, Chinese light flyweight Zou Shiming and Italian super heavyweight Roberto Cammarelle all won their semifinals, earning the right to fight during the final weekend for their second straight Olympic gold medals. Two more fighters also protested the results of their bouts in a tournament full of appeals to amateur boxings governing body. Ukraine light heavyweight Oleksandr Gvozdyk protested his loss to Kazakhstans Adilbek Niyazymbetov on a tiebreaker, and super heavyweight Magomedrasul Medzhidov protested his one-point loss to Cammarelle. AIBA rejected both protests late Friday night.

Good as gold
A lot of people call it cocky, people call it over confident. But I knew I was going to win.
Theres no question which country is the best at synchronized swimming. Russia grabbed the team gold medal for its fourth consecutive team victory and sixth straight overall gold. The Russians totaled 197.030 points with a free routine featuring swimmers doing acrobatic flips and pirouetting like ballerinas above the water. The team of Anastasia Davydova, Maria Gromova, Natalia Ishchenko, Elvira Khasyanova, Alexandra Patskevich, Svetlana Romashina, Anzhelika Timanina and Alla Shishkina swam in black, red and gold suits featuring a spider web design on the back.
Ed McKeever of Britain clocked the quickest time over the heats and semifinals as the 200-meter canoe sprint made its Olympic debut. Racing in front of a flag-waving crowd under sunny, cloudless skies at Dorney Lake, the barrel-chested McKeever crossed in 35.087 seconds in his heat and then easily won his semifinal. Canoeing officials replaced the 500meter race with the 200 sprint in a bid to inject more excitement into the sport and attempt to move it out from rowings shadow at the Olympics. The 200 races were played out in front of the whole length of three packed grandstands, generating a vibrant atmosphere.
CANOE SPRINT
LONDON A year ago, Jordan Burroughs changed his Twitter handle to (at)alliseeisgold. On Thursday, Burroughs promised to tweet a picture of himself holding the Olympic gold medal. He delivered on Friday night on the mat and on Twitter. The boastful 24-year-old American backed up all his talk, beating Irans Sadegh Saeed Goudarzi 1-0, 1-0 in the mens freestyle 74-kilogram division to give the U.S. its first wrestling gold medal at the London Games. A lot of people call it cocky, people call it over confident, Burroughs said. But I knew I was going to win. Burroughs beat Denis Tsargush of Russia in a tight semifinal, then got past Goudarzi in a rematch of their world championship bout in 2011. Burroughs, who grew up in New Jersey, has won 38 straight international freestyle matches and is the first Olympian to claim the $250,000 prize from the Living the Dream Medal Fund, a program designed to support U.S. wrestling. An hour after beating Goudarzi, the tweet-happy Burroughs made good on his word, posting a shot of himself beaming beside his gold. He wont have to change that boastful handle either at least not until the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Games. Its easy to be confident when you put the hard work in that I do, Burroughs said. Also, Dzhamal Otarsultanov took the mens 55-kg freestyle category, beating Vladimer Khin-
Americans. The U.S. entered Friday with just one medal; a bronze won by womens freestyler Clarissa Chun. Burroughs was by far the best hope the U.S. had for a gold, and Jordan Ernest Burroughs the fear was that if he fell short the Americans would go home without one.

LONDON The London Games are set to end in a blazing tribute to British pop and pizazz, with a closing ceremony that will see stars from the Spice Girls to The Who turn Olympic Stadium into a giant jukebox of musical hits. Two weeks of sporting drama wrap up Sunday with what music director David Arnold has called the greatest after-party in the world. If the opening ceremony was the wedding, then were the wedding reception, Arnold told the Daily Telegraph with everyone from the Pet Shop Boys to Annie Lennox and Fatboy Slim on hand to get people dancing. Although organizers have tried to keep the ceremony under wraps, many details have leaked out in the British media and some of the performers have let the cat out of the bag themselves. The Who, George Michael, Muse and Ed Sheeran have all said they will take part in a show that will include performances of 30 British hit singles from the past five decades. Tips and photos have emerged from the rehearsal venue, an old car plant in east London. The Spice Girls were photographed dancing atop black London taxis, so a rendition of their biggest hit, Wannabe, seems certain. So does an appearance by surviving members of Queen, whose We Will Rock You and We Are the Champions have been ever-present at the games. And Ray Davies of The Kinks is tipped to perform his majestic London ballad Waterloo Sunset. Paul McCartney has already performed at the opening ceremony, but its inconceivable that there wont be a bit of Beatles music in a tribute to the best of British pop. And organizers will want to include younger acts such as Tinie Tempah, Jessie J, Emeli Sande and the Kaiser Chiefs. Organizers have said they want the ceremony to be a cheeky reflection of modern Britain, so expect touches of Monty Pythonesque humor perhaps even Python Eric Idle leading a mass rendition of Always Look on the Bright Side of Life. The Daily Mail newspaper published photographs of what it said was the set, involving reconstructions of London landmarks such as St. Pauls Cathedral and Tower Bridge. The show wont be short on spectacle. Director Kim Gavin has overseen tours for the band Take That and directed Londons 2007 Princess Diana memorial concert. Designer Es Devlin has created sets for everyone from Lady Gaga to the Royal Opera. As with director Danny Boyles opening ceremony, London is aiming for a plucky, irreverent tone far removed from Beijings 2008 Olympic closer, which was heavy on precision displays of fireworks, acrobatics and dancing. Its not anything desperately profound, London games chief Sebastian Coe said. Its not the opening ceremony but I think it will be great. Its basically a tribute to British music over the last few decades. Its fun.

LONDON London 2102. It was only a typo, stenciled on an Olympics tennis umpires chair, but it raised an interesting question. What will be the legacy of this years games economically, socially, culturally? In a 2,000-year-old city that has been home to many, many stories, will the games, decades from now, merit their own chapter or merely a sentence or two? Once the gold-fueled nationalism fades and the bill comes due, will
they be seen as a success? If you live in Londons gritty East End, where much of the $14 billion in Olympics-related infrastructure improvements have been made, the answer could very well be yes. The 560-acre Olympic Park replaced a rusting, toxic no-mansland with state-of the art venues, some constructed by world-class architects. After the games end, the site will be closed to undergo another metamorphosis. When it reopens in 2013, many temporary Olympic structures will be gone, replaced by fields, playgrounds, waterways, cycling lanes and picnic areas, as well as scaled-down athletic and cultural venues and new mixed-income housing. Initially, I was skeptical about
the effect it would have on the local community, but over the years it has become apparent that theres been a lot of attention paid to the legacy of the Olympics, said Dan Tsu, the founder of Lyrix Organix, a group of rappers and hiphop artists who work with underprivileged youth in Stratford and Hackney, the neighborhoods adjacent to Olympic Park. Tsu said both have been plagued by crime, unemployment and neglect. Those will doubtlessly improve, but the neighborhoods will also have to adjust to gentrification and higher real estate prices. It is difficult for any community to deal with something that uproots them. There is a very strong sense of community here, he said. But Ive realized that the ar-
ea needed regeneration and investment. Elsewhere, the impact of the games will be more diffuse, if it is felt at all. Britain hoped the Olympics would lead to a surge in sports participation that would allow it to shed its distinction as the fattest nation in Europe, but whether that will happen remains to be seen. Fighting a recession and slashing debt, Britain has already cut the budget for Sport England, the community sports organization, by a third. It has scrapped a plan to get 1 million more people playing sports by the end of this year. So the games may not have shrunk Britains waistline. But they do seem to have bolstered the national mood.

Everythings different now for coach McCutcheon, except his Olympic success.
By JANIE McCAULEY AP Sports Writer
LONDON Hugh McCutcheon stayed on the sideline and watched with delight. All around him, his players celebrated on the court, coming together for a group hug. The U.S. volleyball coach often speaks of creating a new story. This is it. This run by the American womens team at the Olympics is providing all the material, and with a star named Destinee, no UP NEXT less. Next up is the goldWomens medal match Gold Medal Saturday Game Team USA night. vs. Brazil Everything 6:30 p.m. today is so different TV: 8 p.m., NBC now, four years after McCutcheons father-in-law was stabbed to death at a Beijing tourist spot right before the opening ceremony. Different athletes now, different tournament he coached the men to gold last time amid the anguish different everything. McCutcheon has long since separated that China trip from his latest coaching assignment: bringing home the first Olympic gold for the American women. They won silver in Beijing and soon after committed themselves to gold in London. While McCutcheon planned to hunker down Friday studying film and plotting strategy for the title match against Brazil, the U.S. womens basketball team was also getting ready. Coach Geno Auriemmas fourtime defending champions, led by Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi, play France for the gold medal on Saturday night at O2 Arena.

Belgiums Barbara Nelen (19) moves the ball past the United States Kayla Bashore-Smedley in a womens field hockey classification match Friday in London. Belgium won, 2-1.
LONDON -- Van Halens Jump never sounded so good to Dallas High School graduate Paige Selenski. Selenski scored her first Olympic goal in the games seventh minute, but the United States lost 2-1 to Belgium on Friday, falling to 12th place in the Olympic standings. The Van Halen song -- the No. 1 tune in America in 1984 is much older than Selenski -- was played throughout the stadium to celebrate Selenskis marker. Selenski came in as a substitute less than five minutes into play, the first sub by either team. She jumped into a well-conceived attack, propelled by pinpoint passing between American teammates. Katelyn Falgowski centered from the left wing to Katie Reinprecht, who sent a touch pass to Selenski blazing up the left wing into the circle. Selenski drove past defender Louise Cavenaile and tried to cross the ball to Shannon Taylor at the far
post. Belgium goalkeeper Aisling DHooghe got in the way of the play and defender Stephanie De Groof looked to clear the ball away. The Shavertown native swatted at the ankle-high clearing attempt and roofed into the top corner of the far side of the goal to give the Americans the lead. The United States finished last among the 12 teams at the tournament, its worst showing in history. The Americans went 1-5, with their lone victory coming against Argentina, which is playing for the gold medal later today. We have finished where we deserved to, Rachel Dawson said in a release from USA Field Hockey. We just didnt take our chances in this tournament so 12th place is what we go home with. Its been a humbling experience for us all. Humility gives you the desire to work harder and teaches you the discipline to execute better games. Weve done an OK job here, but we know we can be better.
The U.S. enjoyed a 15-10 shots advantage and earned five of the nine penalty corners called. But Belgium tied the game in the 20th minute and clinched 11th place with a tally on a corner in the 51st minute. Its been so close every game, but not gone our way. In our games against opponents ranked higher than us, we took it to them and kind of shocked the world, Katie ODonnell said in the release. We have amazing kids coming up, Selinsgrove native Keli SmithPuzo said in the release. The young talent is going to be amazing. I think Rio 2016 is going to be a completely different team. In her first Olympics, Selenski played 217 minutes and recorded eight shots. Her high was 47 minutes of play in the win over Argentina, followed by 41 against Belgium. She had three shots Friday, and posted at least one shot in every game except the matchup with New Zealand.
LONDON With a surge of medals in track and field, the United States has sprinted ahead of China and is poised to finish atop the medals table at the London Olympics maybe with the most golds ever collected by the Americans on foreign soil. Heading into the final weekend of competition, the U.S. led both the gold and overall medals races after trailing the Chinese most of the games. Midway through Fridays events, the Americans led China in total medals, 90 to 81, and golds, 40 to 37. Bill Mallon, a veteran American medals prognosticator, projects the U.S. could pick up 15 medals, including six gold, before the games close Sunday. He believes the U.S. will win the overall tally by 12 to 15 medals and the gold race by three to five. Six more golds would equal the highest U.S. total on foreign territory in Olympic history 45 at both the 1968 Mexico City Games and the 1924 Paris Games. The gold haul in London is already the best for the United States since it won 44 in 1996 in Atlanta. Its highest gold count was 83 at the 1984 Los Angeles Games, which were boycotted by the Soviet Union. The late U.S. charge in London has been spurred by the track and field team, with 24 medals, including seven golds, going into Fridays events. The Americans picked up four medals Thursday night with 1-2 finishes by Ashton Eaton and Trey Hardee in the decathlon and by Christian Taylor and Will Claye in the triple jump. The success could validate the projection of 30 medals by USA Track & Field, the national governing body for the sport, which had been widely maligned as too ambitious. With the relays and a few other chances coming up, the United States could exceed 30 medals even after being shut out in the mens 200 and 400 meters, two events where the Americans usually excel.

PGA CHAMPIONSHIP
KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. The major known as Glorys Last Shot turned into one last chance for Tiger Woods. On the toughest scoring day in PGA Championship history, Woods made putts from one end of Kiawah Island to the other Friday for a 1-under 71 that gave him a share of the lead with Vijay Singh and Carl Pettersson going into the weekend. It was tough out there wow, Woods said. Wow, indeed. In relentless wind that began at sunrise and whipped up the Atlantic waters with 30 mph gusts, par never looked better in this championship. There were more rounds in the 90s two of them by club pros than in the 60s. There were 41 players who failed to break 80, a list that included Rickie Fowler, Matt Kuchar and Hunter Mahan. Singh, a three-time major champion who hasnt won in nearly four years, scratched out five birdies in a remarka-
ble round of 3-under 69. Only three other players managed to break par in the second round Michael Hoey of Northern Ireland at 70, and Woods, Phil Mickelson and Ian Poulter at 71. Its the second time this year that Woods has had a share of the lead in a major going into the weekend. He missed one chance at Olympic Club in the U.S. Open, when he stumbled to a 75-73 to tie for 21st. He was in the penultimate group at the British Open until a triple bogey on the sixth hole of the final round took him out of the mix. One last major, one last shot. Ive been in this position many times over my career, he said. Again, were just at the halfway point. We have a long way to go. Six players were atop the leaderboard on this day of survival. Singh was the first to post at 4-under 140, and it didnt look as though anyone would be able to even match that as the wind never let up on The Ocean Course. Pettersson stayed in the lead as long as he could until a few errant tee shots cost
him at the end of his round and he had to settle for a 74. Woods, playing on the opposite side of the course, showed early on that he figured out something with his putter. Along with birdie putts of 15 feet and 40 feet on the opening two holes, there was a collection of big par saves from 20 feet on the third hole, a pair of 8-foot par putts a few holes later. There were even two short par putts that swirled 360 degrees around the cup and dropped. The only disappointment was the way it ended. After hooking a tee shot that rattled around the corporate tents and allowed him a shot into the 18th, he ran his birdie putt about 6 feet by the hole and three-putted for bogey. It cost him his first outright lead in a major in three years, but this was not a day to complain. It was fun, but it also was tough, Woods said. You were getting blown all over the place. It was just a very difficult day. Poulter was tied for the lead until a bogey on his last hole, though he showed
again that he can thrive in windy, demanding conditions. The last time he was in serious contention at wind-swept Royal Birkdale in 2008, when he was runner-up to Padraig Harrington. The golf shots this golf course asks you to hit time and time and time and time again ... you really have to hit phenomenal golf shots, Poulter said. The room for error is so tiny, and when you get it wrong, you can be 15 feet below the level of the green in a bad lie with not much of a shot. The course played so difficult that the afternoon groups were delayed 20 minutes, and one player failed to finish Joost Luiten of the Netherlands, who was 1 over for the tournament and will return Saturday morning to complete his round. The scoring average was 78.11. The previous record for the PGA Championship was 76.8 in the opening round at Llanerch Country Club in 1958. Singh is 49 and without a PGA Tour win in nearly four years. He stood tall in the wind, however, even as he kept his head down.

STATE COLLEGE Jerry Sanduskys attorney called new allegations that the former Penn State assistant football coach may have sent pornographic materials through the mail unfathomable. Sandusky, convicted in June on 45 counts of child sex abuse, is reportedly the focus of an investigation by the U.S. Postal Service, which is looking into whether he sent child pornography across state lines, CBS News said Friday. Federal investigators are analyzing a computer seized from Sandusky, and are also attempting to confirm Sandusky mailed seductive letters to sexual targets, the network reported. In an interview Friday evening with McClatchy Newspapers, Joe Amendola said the Sandusky legal team has not been notified of a postal service investigation. The whole concept of a porno ring, or whatever theyre saying, is, we believe, ridiculous, Amendola said. He said: Jerry continues to maintain his innocence across the board. Its unfathomable that this could be possible, but well have to wait and see what they say. Amendola said Sandusky is writing a statement that he plans to present at his sentencing hearing, which is as yet unscheduled. After Sanduskys conviction late on the night of June 22, Senior Judge John Cleland said sentencing would occur within 90 days. After sentencing, Sanduskys legal team could begin to pursue any appeals, Amendola said. Sandusky is currently housed in the Centre County, Pa., prison. Jerry is preparing an elaborate explanation of his side of the case which he believes will exonerate him of the charges of which he was convicted, Amendola said. CBS reported that the pornography investigation is under the direction of U.S. postal inspectors in Harrisburg, Pa., and the U.S. Attorneys Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania. Amendola last week described Sandusky as extremely distraught over NCAA sanctions against Penn State that resulted from the Louis Freeh report. The report, commissioned by Penn State, said university officials, including former President Graham Spanier and the late Joe Paterno, covered up allegations of child abuse by Sandusky. Sandusky was convicted of abusing 10 boys beginning in 1998. Some of the incidents occurred on the Penn State campus.

Pressure-packed performance
By By JAY MONAHAN For The Times Leader
PLAINS TWP. Its not often that a first-time fighter starts his career on the feature bill. Jim Jordan entered his first mixed martial arts fight as Cage Fight13s biggest amateur stage. It took the Kingston resident less than two minutes to become the house favorite Friday in front of a crowd of 1,400 at the Northeast Mixed Martial Arts event at The Woodlands. Jordan nailed an overhand right punch and took Kadiem Wheatle into a submission hold late in the first round. Wheatle tapped out at the 1:41 mark to give Jordan a welterweight victory. Someone once told me that youre either 15 percent better or 15 percent worse under pressure, Jordan said. Thats me right there. I sold a boatload of tickets and had a lot more people cheering for me than I expected. I came through behind all of the crowd noise and butterflies. Milfords Mike Bannon added to his undefeated career record with a tap-out win in Cage Fight 13s main event. Bannon, now standing at an 8-0 record, spent the first few minutes of the first round on the floor. He countered Binky Jones, of Baltimore, with a triangle submission, and Jones succumbed at the 2:19 mark of the match. That was mostly jujitsu instincts right there, said Bannon, who advances to the Bellator Fighting Championships circuit with the victory. I didnt plan it or anything; the opportunity just happened to come about and I took advantage of it. In Cage Fight 13s most hotly contested professional match, Bethlehems Jake Gombocz earned a technical knockout win over Pittston native Gary Peters seconds before the end of the second round. Gombocz cornered Peters and delivered several hard jabs to the head before fin-

ishing with a submission hold. Suliman Ismail, brother of footballers Raghib and Qadry, was overpowered by West Hazletons Jeremiah Wells in a 42second knockout. Wells struck gold with a side kick, a fake side kick and a right jab that floored Ismail. I knew I had the power over him, Wells said. I dont like knockouts, actually. I hate short matches. Im more of a submission fighter. But I suppose things just worked out for me today. Kingston native Willy Weber elicited the loudest crowd volume in the 170pound amateur fight. Weber knocked down Milfords Dan Della Vecchia with four consecutive punches in the first round. Della Vecchia responded in the second round with a pair of shots to Webers right side. By the third round, the hometown crowd chanted his name en route to a unanimous victory of 29-28 scores. I got my head on straight (in the sec-
ond and third rounds). Hes a wrestler and Im a wrestler. He put me in a full-on trap mode, and I caught myself wrestling. At the first break, my coach set me straight and I came out with a lot of connected hits. Larry Gonzalez, of Wilkes-Barres School of Combat Arts, produced the events fastest fight with a 34-second technical knockout of John Smith. Gonzalez manhandled his opponent and told the sold-out crowd that he is tired of lesser competition. I just want some better opponents, he said, to a chorus of boos. Cage Fight14 is slated for Oct.13 in Hazle Township.

AUSTIN, Texas A federal judge had tough questions for U.S. anti-doping officials about the fairness of their effort to prove seven-time Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong cheated, grilling them at length in a hearing Friday. But U.S. District Judge Sam Sparks also asked attorneys for the cyclist why the federal court should step into an arbitration process already set up to handle doping cases in sports. Armstrong In a 2-hour session, Sparks criticized USADA about the vagueness of its charges and wondered whether Armstrong would get a legitimate chance to defend himself against allegations that he used performance-enhancing drugs throughout his career. Sparks also questioned USADA officials about why they dont turn their evidence over to the International Cycling Union, which has tried to wrest control of the Armstrong case from USADA in recent days. The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency accuses Armstrong of using steroids and blood boosters to win the Tour from 1999-2005, and leading a complex doping program on his teams. If found guilty, he faces a lifetime ban from the sport and could be stripped of his titles. Armstrong, who denies doping, filed the lawsuit now before Sparks, asking the federal court to block USADAs case. He claims the agencys arbitration process and rules of evidence violate his constitutional right to due process. Sparks did not consider the evidence against Armstrong and made no ruling Friday. The judge gave the lawyers another week to file more legal briefs and suggested he will rule before the Aug. 23 deadline USADA imposed on Armstrong to either take the case to arbitration or accept sanctions. Sparks gave no indication how he would rule, but he was clearly troubled by the vagueness of USADAs charging letter to Armstrong and the agencys decision to withhold key information, including the names of witnesses and what they told investigators at this stage. No case filed in this court or any court in the United States would go to trial, under similar circumstances, Sparks said.

Apple has authorized Apple Stores to price-match other retailers discounts on the iPhone 4S, according to a report. The discounts are limited to $49.01, but appear to apply to all versions of the iPhone 4S, in black and white versions. An image posted online by MacRumors shows a graphic that says Apple Stores can match discounts from Target and Sprint. The discounts come about a month before the expected announcement of the sixth-generation iPhone.
Netflix Inc. CEO Reed Hastings gave his thumbs-up to Facebook by buying about $1 million worth of its stock. Hastings is a Facebook board member and the first insider at the social media company to disclose buying its stock since its initial public offering in May. Facebooks stock has fallen nearly 45 percent since it first sold public shares to investors at $38. A regulatory document filed Thursday shows Hastings bought nearly 48,000 shares on Wednesday at $21.03 each. Shares closed Friday at $21.81.

Six months after J.C. Penney got rid of sales in favor of every day lower prices, the department store chain is reporting a bigger-than-expected loss and plummeting sales.
The U.S. federal budget deficit increased $70 billion in July and is on track to top $1 trillion for the fourth straight year. The deficit for the first 10 months of the 2012 budget year totaled $974 billion, the Treasury Department said Friday. The total for the year so far year is 11.5 percent less than the $1.1 trillion gap in the same period last year. A slightly better economy has boosted income tax receipts, which have increased 6 percent so far this year.
Oilfield services company Baker Hughes Inc. reported Friday that 1,432 rigs were exploring for oil and 495 were searching for gas last week. Four were listed as miscellaneous. A year ago, Baker Hughes listed 1,959 rigs. Of the major oil- and gas-producing states, Louisiana gained four rigs, North Dakota three, Texas and West Virginia two each and Arkansas one. New Mexico and Pennsylvania each declined by three rigs. The rig count peaked at 4,530 in 1981 and bottomed out at 488 in 1999.
EW YORK J.C. Penney Co. CEO Ron Johnson hasnt run out of magic yet, as far as Wall Street is concerned. The former Apple executives soothing wordsdrovethechainsstockhighereven after the company offered up grisly details Friday of a terrible second quarter. The midpriced department store chain reported a bigger-than-expected loss and plummeting sales. Shoppers are still not buying into a bold new pricing strategy. Penney even withdrew its fullyear profit guidance. The bleak performance marked the second straight quarter of severe sales declines since Penney got rid of most steep temporary discounts in favor of ev-
eryday lower prices. The report confirmed its going to be a hard sell to shoppers who are used to big sale signs and coupons. Yet, after feeling a bit queasy in premarket trading, investors pushed up Penneys stock price by as much as 9 percent after Johnson reassured investors on a 90-minute conference call. The more he sells the hope, the more investors are buying into it, Brian Sozzi, chief equities analyst for research firm NBG Productions who is still staying on the sidelines. Under Johnsons stewardship, Penney is changing everything from the items it stocks to store design. But the riskiest move has been its pricing. The goal is to offer consumers more predictability so they will visit more often. That will help
break the vicious cycle of discounting that has soiled the brand, a laggard behind Macys Inc. and other competitors. Penneys stock is beaten up still down by nearly half since their peak above $42 in the afterglow of Johnsons hiring. And business cant get any worse, said Ron Friedman, head of the retail and consumer products group at accounting firm Marcum LLP. In the second quarter, revenue tumbled almost 23 percent to $3.02 billion. Revenue at stores open at least a year fell 21.7 percent, worse than the 18.9 percent drop the quarter before. Customer counts fell 12 percent. Investors also seemed to embrace Johnsons more detailed vision laid out Friday for rejuvenating the Penney store experience.

ATLANTA Coca-Colas Freestyle fountain dispenser, which the company launched three years ago, is one of its biggest innovations in years, and many say the machine is a potential game-changer in the ultracompetitive beverage industry. Dispensing combinations of more than 120 of the companys brands from a touch screen including Coke Zero, Fanta, Pibb and Dasani the machines are being credited with driving double-digit sales for many of the restaurant chains that have adopted it. Despite some anxiety about the re-

liability of computers and the added costs that come with more choices, the device has been so successful that competitors may soon come up with their own versions. "Its giving consumers the ulti-
mate option -- beverage choices that they can customize themselves," said Joe Pawlak, vice president of Technomic, a Chicago-based food research consultant. "Its also driving up food sales by luring in customers who are there just to use the machines." But it comes at a cost. Traditionally, retailers are given the fountain equipment for free or through some other arrangement, including leases or as a loan from a bottler. For Freestyle, retailers pay a program fee that covers the equipment, installation, service, upgrades and the wireless data connection. Coca-Cola declined to disclose the fee amount.

NEW YORK Soccer club Manchester Uniteds flat debut on the New York Stock Exchange on Friday ended a rocky but busy week for initial public offerings. On Tuesday, Outback Steakhouses parent company priced its IPO below expectations, and the owner of the Carls Jr. fast-food chain postponed its planned stock offering Thursday night. It added up to an anticlimactic ending to the busiest week for major IPOs since Facebooks problem-plagued debut in May. Investor Investor reaction to the de- reaction to buts shows the debuts they are push- shows they ing back on are pushing pricing and staying cau- back on prictious if the ing and staycompanys fi- ing cautious nances are if the compaquestionable. But if the price nys finances is right and the are questioncompany is sol- able. id, investors are willing to buy. After a five-week lull following Facebooks IPO, have been 22 initial public offerings since the last week in June. Of those, 17 are now trading above their IPO price. The greed factor is back, said Francis Gaskins, president and editor of IPODesktop.com. But investors are being cautious about which companies to buy into, he said. When you have big leveraged buyouts with a big brand, they have to show bottom-line profit, to succeed. Since Facebooks debut in May, investors are increasingly demanding lower stock prices. Ten of the last 11 IPOS have priced below their expected range, said Nick Einhorn, an analyst at research firm Renaissance Capital. Facebook shares began trading publicly on May 18 at the top of their projected IPO range, but ended up closing barely above their IPO price at $38.23 and have fallen sharply since then. Facebooks shares closed Friday at $21.81, down 43 percent from their IPO price.

This weekend will start with showers but end with some sunshine. Today will start off with a few clouds and passing showers but they should clear out quickly. The remainder of the day will be a mix of sun and clouds with a high of 82. We could see a light morning shower on Sunday but the afternoon and evening look dry and nice. Monday will be mostly sunny with a high of 82. A front on Tuesday will bring clouds and rain to the area that lasts right into Wednesday morning. During the afternoon skies will turn partly cloudy. Thursday will be dry, as well as most of Friday. - Michelle Rotella

KANSAS CITY, Mo. Today, we are experiencing a demand for the designs of midcentury American furniture, when America was in a period of design excellence and innovation, but the question of whattobuyhasbecomemoreconfusingto the consumer. Can I buy an original? Should I buy vintage or new? What is the difference between an authentic piece and a reproduction? As a designer, and someone who supports authentic design, I will try to clarify some of the confusion around these questions. (Full disclosure: I am an authorized retailer for Herman Miller and Knoll, both licensed to produce iconic midcentury furniture pieces.) Original What really defines a piece of furniture as an original? This is an interesting questionbecausemanyofthemid-century pieces we are familiar with were designed to be massproduced and have been in production since they were introduced. In the purest sense of the word, an original is a oneof-kind piece or a piece that was made durMCT PHOTO ing a limitedI buy new production run (also because it called a limiteither looks ed edition). Very few of best in the us can afford space or the an original, as this is the stuff new piece has highly prized been improved by collectors and it rarely upon from comes up for previous proauction. So the term origiduction runs. nal is not really applicable when you are talking about mid-century furniture that was designed to be massproduced. Vintage or new? This really gets down to your taste. Are youapersonwhowantstoseesomepatina on your piece or someone who wants something brand-new? If you are like me, the answer is both. I shop vintage stores when Im looking for something that I want to have a bit of history or when I am looking for somethingthatisnotmadetoday.Othertimes,I buy new because it either looks best in the space or the new piece has been improved upon from previous production runs. Both have merit, and sometimes a vintage piece is worth more than a new piece, especially if it is a piece with a finish that is no longer available or has detailing that was changed in later production runs. Before buying a vintage piece with a price tag higher than a new piece, do your homework and find out when the piece was made and how it is different from those being made today. Be sure to look for a manufacturers tag or marking to confirm the authenticity. Sometimes the design of the manufacturers tag has changed over time, which can help establish a date of the piece. Consider photographing the tag and contacting the manufacturer to see if it can help you narrow down the time frame. Authentic or reproduction? Experience has taught me that clients get easily confused by this question because of the way pieces are marketed. Authentic pieces are being produced by the manufacturer that is authorized by the designer, holds the license on the deSee FURNITURE, Page 3C

f you were the artistic wife of a sailor back in 17th-century France, you didnt let modest means deter you from decorating your home in style.
painted floor coverings that rivaled those in wealthy homes. British sailors started bringing them back as souvenirs, and a fad with impressive reach and longevity was born. The heavy canvases called oilcloths in Britain and floorcloths when the art came to North America would be painted with simple or elaborate designs depending on the skill level of the artists (often house painters) and the financial status of homeowners. The term oilcloth probably refers to the oilbased paints and linseed oil coatings applied to the canvases.

Several months ago, the water dispenser stopped working, though the ice dispenser and ice cube maker work fine. I called the serviceman, who diagnosed a frozen water line in the door. His solutions were to replace the door, at a cost of about $600, or to turn off the fridge and let it thaw out. This is not practical, as we dont have another refrigerator to put the food in. Also, whats to prevent the line from refreezing? I got a second opinion from a different guy, and it was basically the same solution, except he said what probably happened was that over time, the insulation in the door had absorbed moisture, causing it to freeze. I would be interested to get your opinion as to what can be done, if anything. A: A YouTube video dealing with this very problem said there is a heating kit you can attach to the line that will stop it from happening. The video is at http://tinyurl.com/6pk7yrb. There is also an eHow entry that covers the topic at http://tinyurl.com/7ewrpf9.

Once a week, Diane Foernssler takes arms against the dust that invades her Darien, Ill., home, using everything from the vacuum cleaner to a special mop for blinds and baseboards. On those other six days, however, the dust wins. Its everywhere, and it never goes away, says Foernssler, a fitness trainer and mother of two. Its a losing battle. Unfortunately, shes right. Experts say dusts constant accumulation on all those books, clothes and knickknacks has nothing to do with poor housekeeping. Its a naturally and continually forming collection of some pretty gross stuff. It has nothing to do with being dirty, says Dr. William Berger, a Mission Viejo, Calif., allergist and author of Asthma and Allergies for Dummies. You can leave your house closed for two or three weeks and come back and there will be dust. A whole lot of it. According to Berger, the average six-room home in the United States collects 40 pounds of dust each year. The main contributors to all that indoor dust are microscopic dust mites; the breakdown of fibers from household fabrics and furniture; and human and animal dander (the nice name for skin flakes). The dust mites, which have a

taste for human skin, come in countless numbers in your bedding alone, let alone other spots around the house, Berger said. Getting rid of them is impossible; females lay 20 to 50 eggs every three weeks. Dust and dust mites are a large part of indoor air pollution, a leading environmental health risk primarily because people spend about 90 percent of their time indoors, according to Molly Hooven, a spokeswoman for the Environmental Protection Agency. Dust and dust mites can trigger asthma attacks and allergies. There are, therefore, reasons for keeping dust to a minimum that are far more important than maintaining appearances, the spokesperson says.
So while eradicating dust altogether may be a pipe dream, there are steps you can take to mitigate its accumulation in your home. The first is the same old trick that shows up on housekeeping tip sheets again and again: Get Rid of All That Stuff. The more clutter there is the more dust there is, Berger says. Things like books, clothing and toys such as stuffed animals are prime collectors of dust, he says. So are the pennants and posters kids like to hang on their walls. Berger suggests concentrating dust-fighting efforts on bedrooms, since we spend about one-third of our lives asleep. The bedroom should be as bare as possible, Berger says. That means having an uncarpeted floor, minimal furniture and only the current seasons clothes in the closet. For walls, using paint that can be cleaned with water is helpful. So are HEPA (short for High-Efficiency Particulate Arresting) air filters. Occasionally using those old standbys a vacuum and a can of Endust also provides at least temporary relief, Berger says. But if youre looking to keep allergens, not just unsightliness, at bay, Berger suggests protecting yourself even more. Encase mattresses, box springs and pillows in allergy-proof covers.

However, if the manufacturer holds the production rights and the license for the design, it is still considered an authentic piece. A reproduction is a piece that is produced to look like the authenticpiece,butthemanufacturer does not hold the license from thedesignerortheoriginalmanufacturer to produce it. Other words and phrases are used to describe a reproduction such as replica or inspired by. If you want to avoid buying a reproduction, ask the retailer if you are buying an authentic piece.

IN BRIEF
Waterproof, insect resistant and sturdy, floorcloths became just as popular in American homes. Thomas Jefferson, George Washington and John Adams had floorcloths in their homes; you can still see one at Mount Vernon a solid green, as Washington sought to simulate the grass outdoors inside. Near the start of the 20th century, the advent of mass-produced linoleum sent labor-intensive floorcloths out of style, but in the 60s and again more recently, artists have rediscovered the craft. Julie Biggs of Pickerington, Ohio, paints hers with contemporary designs such as polka dots or naif flowers in hues of pink, turquoise, yellow and charcoal gray. A green polka dot rug would look fresh and young in a childs room. Shes playing with other ideas, too. My favorite technique right now is a layered, worn look, which includes several layers of designs on one floorcloth, Biggs says. Once Im finished painting each layer, I sand off some of the top to let the sub-layers peek through. It gives the floorcloth a warm, loved look thats very charming. Recently, Ive been inspired by the colors and designs of modern fabrics and quilts. Weathersfield, Vt.-based Lisa Curry Mair crafts her rugs in a 200-year-old farmhouse adorned with many of her creations. She brings a love of history, childrens book illustrations and mathematics to her designs. A mariners compass, an artichoke and a woven, canelike pattern are among her best-sellers, and she does custom designs. The hardest thing to get across, she says, is how durable the pieces are, and thats largely due to the number of hobby crafters producing inferior product. They use lightweight canvas, cheap paint and finishes. A floorcloth in a high-traffic kitchen should stand up to dogs, kids and all kinds of abuse, Mair says. A good heavy floorcloth should lie flat with no bumps or ripples, she says. When I make floorcloths for museums, they must stand up to 30,000 visitors a year walking on them. Lucia Blum of Wilmington, N.C., gives rugs a folk-art look. Cat Nap features a black and white cat surrounded by the stuff of cat dreams: goldfish, birds and mice. Bunny romps on a green field circled by carrots and radishes. Artist Faith Wilson, who will be showing at the American Craft Exposition in Evanston, Ill., in August, takes a painterly approach to her often haunting, evocative canvases. Gingko leaves, conifers and little black birds inhabit softly hued, sepia-washed backgrounds. If youre interested in trying your hand at the floorcloth craft yourself, HGTVs website offers instructions. Mairs website has a how-to video plus a supplies shop.

DEAR ABBY
ADVICE
the file cabinets of our brains trying to decide which child from the past this grown-up might be? Struggling to Recall in Arkansas Dear Struggling: When someone approaches you and says, You dont remember me, do you? an appropriate response would be, Refresh my memory! This potentially embarrassing problem can be avoided if the former student simply says, Mrs. Jones, its so nice to see you. Im John Smith and you were my teacher in 1991.
Dear Abby: We have some neighbors who recently bought a large parrot they keep in a cage in their backyard. This bird squawks so loudly we can hear it inside our home with the windows closed, and we are no longer able to enjoy our own backyard. Their yard is fenced in, so I havent met or even seen these neighbors. For the life of me, I cannot understand how someone could subject others to this kind of intrusion. It is so disrespectful. We can only assume the bird is kept outside so they dont have to listen to its loud screeching inside their own home. The bird squawks loudly about every 10 to 15 seconds and it goes on for hours usually in the mornings and evenings. My nerves are rattled and Im not sure how much more of
this I can take. I hesitate to call the authorities because I am worried about the consequences. What would you suggest? For the Birds in Florida Dear F.T.B.: Unfortunately, some people decide to buy parrots without first researching whats involved in their proper care and maintenance. Parrots are gregarious creatures and must be kept socialized with another parrot or with the humans who care for them. They also require mental stimulation to remain psychologically healthy. Because their natural habitat is the rainforest, they have loud voices so they can communicate over long distances. Your neighbors obviously didnt take that into consideration when they bought the bird and de-
cided to house it outside. Inform them politely about the noise problem their bird is creating and ask that they house it inside. If they refuse, inform the Humane Society or the local Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals to ensure that the enclosure is being kept clean, and that the bird is being fed a healthy diet and has access to clean water. As a last resort, if necessary, inform local law enforcement that your neighbors parrot is creating a sound nuisance.

UNIVERSAL SUDOKU
CRYPTOQUOTE
HOROSCOPE
BY HOLIDAY MATHIS
ARIES (March 21-April 19). A cynic once said, A lie told often enough becomes the truth. But that doesnt change the fact that its still a lie. Insist on truth-telling, especially when confronted by those who benefit from convenient lies. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Sometimes you have to make a mountain out of a molehill especially if theres a giant mole tunneling through your yard. Dont be afraid to demand that your concerns be taken seriously. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Taking time out of your day to do something wonderful for someone else is becoming a habit for you. You love how it feels to give, and it almost doesnt matter how your gifts are received almost. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Youve been so wrapped up in work that certain friends and family members are feeling neglected. Put away the phone, switch off the computer, and embrace some much-needed quality time with them. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Much of the days activities will have to do with solving a puzzle. Whether youre learning new software or trying to find your sons left shoe, a process of trial and error will lead you to your goal. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You have a talent for building momentum within projects. Something that seems arduous and static in the beginning stages will be very strong once it gets going. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You dont like to complain, but the time has come to air your grievances. To your surprise, friends and family will be relieved to hear them and will take steps to rectify them. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Being aware of the ways in which you are not happy will help you to get happy. But do not linger on the negativity. Instead, pick one problem, name it, and work to make it better. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). When two people say approximately the same thing to you, youll probably take notice. But when you hear it from three unrelated sources, thats a sign to take immediate action. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your likes and dislikes are, as they say, nothing personal. Youll follow the one who wants the same thing you want. The one who wants something different will be of no interest. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Shopping doesnt necessarily mean buying. Perhaps the only way to accomplish the former without the latter today is to leave your money and credit cards at home. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Make sure youre on time for your next appointment, even if its a casual, leisurely meet-up. Promptness says something about your character that people will hear loud and clear. TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Aug. 11). Your tendency to underestimate your effect on others makes you one of those people who dont know their own strength. This is partly because for the next four months your purpose is allconsuming. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 14, 39, 7 and 13.
