CORONERS INQUEST
WAVERLY TWP. The death Sunday of William Warren Scranton Jr. brought sadness to many who crossed paths with the former Pennsylvania governor, congressman, presidential candidate and ambassador to the United Nations. But for one Lackawanna County man, the death brings an end to a 60-year employer-employee relationship. In 1953, Lou Mastro was a 24-year-old U.S. Army veteran who had just returned stateside after serving in the conict in Korea. Scranton was 36 and employed at the ScrantonLackawanna Trust Co. in the city that bore his familys name. Scranton needed a caretaker for his Glenburn Township homestead; Mastro needed a job. Mastro, now 84 and still living in his own familys homestead along Route 632 in Waverly Township, said he accepted the position begrudgingly, expecting not to like it very much and not to keep it for too long. But he found working for the Scrantons to be a pleasant surprise. Devoted, caring man I found out right away what kind of a man he was. He was just so kind, always asking you how you were, Mastro recalled Wednesday, only days after his friend and boss succumbed to a cerebral hemorrhage at a retirement community in Montecito, Calif., where he lived with Mary, his wife of 71 years. Scranton was 96. See MASTRO | 10A

Stevens sworn in as state Supreme Court justice

commonwealth. Soon-to-be Justice Stevens insisted that this ceremony be here in this courthouse in this county. That shows you the character of our new Supreme Court Justice, Panella said. Stevens, 66, of Sugarloaf Township, was nominated last month by Gov. Tom Corbett to ll a state Supreme Court seat vacated by Joan Orie Melvin, who resigned May 1 after her conviction on charges she used government employees to help her political campaigns. Melvin is appealing her convictions. Stevens was conrmed for the post June 30 by a 50-0 state Senate vote. His appointment is to ll a term that expires Jan. 1, 2016. Patrick J. Solano, senior advisor to former Gov. Tom Ridge and other state leaders and a longtime Republican Party leader, told the audience he has been associated with Stevens since the beginning of the judges public service. He recounted Stevens rise through the judicial system, from Hazleton as city solicitor to a fourterm state representative to Luzerne County district attorney. He noted that Stevens was elected to the Luzerne County Court of Common Pleas, securing both major party nominations in 1991 and, after his election to the state Superior Court in 1997,

WILKES-BARRE In a rare coroners inquest proceeding in county court, a Luzerne County jury ruled Tuesday that a mans death was a homicide and implicated his girlfriend in the death. The six-member jury deliberated for a half an hour late Tuesday before making a ruling that Matthew Ryan Gailies Sept. 2, 2011, death was a homicide and that his girlfriend, Jessica Alinski, is responsible. Gailie died of a single gunshot wound to the face. All the jury heard was evidence from one side of the case, Gary Marchalk, an attorney who represents Alinski said. I cant say Im surprised. Alinski, who was present for the entire proceeding, said his client has maintained her innocence from the beginning, and that he and Alinski will deal with what happens next possible criminal charges in due course. Her version (of what happened) is not the same as (we) heard in court, Marchalk, of Tamaqua, said. The District Attorneys Ofce will make a determination on whether criminal charges will be led against Alinski. Assistant District Attorney Dan Zola presented the case to the jury. If a decision is made to le charges, she could face rst- or third-degree murder, or involuntary or voluntary manslaughter. Acting Coroner William Lisman said he will change Gailies manner of death from undetermined to homicide on Gailies death certicate. Lisman presided over the two-day proceeding, during which investigators said Alinski, 29, told different versions of Gailies death. Those versions included a version where Alinski was on the second oor of the couples Eagle Rock, home when she heard a pop and went downstairs to nd Gailie laying on the oor. Another version put Alinski in the room when Gailie pulled the trigger. Alinski told the 911 dispatcher the two had an argument, and Gailie shot himself in See INQUEST | 12A

WILKES-BARRE Ali Kazimis arrival at work was memorable Tuesday because the seven-story Hotel Sterling next door was almost entirely demolished. It was strange. You can see the eagles on the Market Street Bridge from our property. We have a riverfront view, said Kazimi, the thirdgeneration owner of M. Abraham Importer on West Market, which
opened by the once bustling Sterling in 1927. Kazimi looks forward to losing that view to new development on the 4-acre Sterling parcel. City ofcials condemned and demolished the former hotel and plan to seize the cleared lot from its nonprot owner, CityVest, so the site can be marketed and sold to a private developer. Kazimi said hes loyal to the block, as evidenced by his 2009 purchase and renovation of the

HARRISBURG The judge in Pennsylvanias voter-identication law trial cleared the courtroom Tuesday so lawyers could spar in private over how many voters may have been unable to obtain an acceptable photo IDs before last years election. Lawyers planned to make closing arguments before Commonwealth Court Judge Bernard McGinley today, the 11th day of the trial on the constitutionality of the yet-to-beenforced law.
The closed hearing involved 144 voters who were on a Pennsylvania Department of State spreadsheet of about 600 who applied for an ID at PennDOT licensing centers but did not obtain a free, votingonly license designed by the Department of State. Those IDs, under rules streamlined in late September, are supposed to be readily available to registered voters. Jonathan Marks, a high-ranking state election ofcial, testied the 144 voters should not have been on the list because they all qualied for and obtained other types of
acceptable photo IDs, although he said did not know the circumstances of those cases. Marks stressed the spreadsheet was designed as an internal tool to track the ow of the special IDs and the most common reason they are delayed is a lack of verication that the applicant is a registered voter. The state has issued more than 3,800 of the special IDs so far, Marks said. In an 11th-hour move at the end of Tuesdays session, the plaintiffs lawyers sought to call a statistical analyst as a witness to rebut Marks testimony, but the state objected and McGinley
ordered the private hearing. The judge told the lawyers he would keep the courtroom closed to reporters and other spectators this morning while the states legal team cross-examines the analyst. D. Alicia Hickok, a Philadelphia lawyer on the states team, said the plaintiffs are intentionally distorting gures in Marks spreadsheet to bolster their case. They have taken an ordinary business record and they have sought to super-impose meaning that was never a part of the business record itself, she said. A member of the plaintiffs
team said its analysis is based on numbers provided by the state. Even accepting everything the commonwealth has argued, youre still talking about hundreds of people who were unable to get the special IDs, and dozens of registered voters who did not get their IDs before Election Day, asserted Witold Walczak of the American Civil Liberties Union of Pennsylvania. Though the law was passed and signed in March 2012, court orders have blocked enforcement in both the presidential election and the May primary.

Historic train station inspected
Student left in DEA cell to get $4M

The Associated Press SAN DIEGO A 25-year old college student reached a $4.1 million settlement with the federal government after he was abandoned in a windowless Drug Enforcement Administration cell for more than four days without food or water, his attorneys said Tuesday. The DEA introduced national detention stan- Chong dards as a result of the ordeal involving Daniel Chong, including daily inspections and a requirement for cameras in cells, said Julia Yoo, one of his lawyers. Chong said he drank his own urine to stay alive, hallucinated that agents were trying to poison him with gases through the vents, and tried to carve a farewell message to his mother in his arm. It remained unclear how the situation occurred, and no one has been disciplined, said Eugene Iredale, another attorney for Chong, The Justice Departments inspector general is investigating. It sounded like it was an accident a really, really bad, horrible accident, Chong said. Chong was taken into custody during a drug raid and placed in the cell in April 2012 by a San Diego police ofcer authorized to perform DEA work on a task force. The ofcer told Chong he would not be charged and said, Hang tight, well come get you in a minute, Iredale said. The door to the 5-by10-foot cell did not reopen for 4 days. Justice Department spokeswoman Allison Price conrmed the settlement was reached for $4.1 million but declined to answer other questions. The DEA didnt immediately respond to a request for comment. Detective Gary Hassen, a San Diego police spokesman, referred questions to the DEA. Since attorney fees are capped at 20 percent of damages and the settlement payment is tax-free, Chong will collect at least $3.2 million, Iredale said. Chong, now an economics student at the University of California, San Diego, said he planned to save and buy his parents a house. Chon was a 23-yearold engineering student when he was at a friends house where the DEA found 18,000 ecstasy pills, other drugs and weapons. Iredale acknowledged Chong was there to consume marijuana. Chong and eight other people were taken into custody but authorities decided against pursing charges against him after questioning. Chong said he began to hallucinate on the third day In the cell, He urinated on a metal bench so he could have something to drink. He also stacked a blanket, his pants and shoes on a bench and tried to reach an overhead re sprinkler, futilely swatting at it with his cuffed hands to set it off. Chong said he slid a shoelace under the door and screamed to get attention before ve or six people found him covered in his feces in the cell at the DEAs San Diego headquarters.

PHILADELPHIA Mayor Michael Nutter said Tuesday it would be pure speculation to say a contractors cigarette caused a gas explosion that leveled a Philadelphia home, injuring eight people. A deputy re marshal told reporters investigators have not been able to interview the injured worker, who is in critical condition with burns after Mondays explosion. Furthermore, Nutter said, the city hasnt been
able to conrm gas was leaking at the time, correcting a city statement previously that a gas leak was to blame for leveling the unoccupied home, which was being remodeled. Councilman Mark Squilla had said earlier at the scene that a contractor had been trying to light the pilot on a water heater. He said neighbors reported the man lit a cigarette at one point and the house exploded. That is pure speculation at this point, Nutter said Tuesday at a news conference.

Sare Rhodes charged with needlessly prescribing pain medication such as Oxycodone and Endocet

IN BRIEF
WASHINGTON, D.C.
Sen. Casey seeks transportation funds
Police: Dentist wrote illegitimate scripts

A dentist from Lehman Township has been arrested on charges she inappropriately prescribed addictive pain medicine to family members, friends and patients. Sare M. Rhodes, 35, whose practice is on Bridge Street, Tunkhannock, is charged with 10 misdemeanor counts of refusal to keep required records and 10 misdemeanor counts of prescribing controlled substances to people known to be dependent, court records show. In February, a Pittston pharmacist reported a Tunkhannock colleague was concerned patients from Rhodes ofce were using various pharmacies to get the same medicine, Oxycodone and Endocet, both potent opiate-based narcotics, according to the agencys report made public Tuesday. An investigation led by an agent from the state Attorney Generals narcotics division showed 10 people were skipping around to different Back Mountain and Tunkhannock area pharmacies for the drugs. Rhodes wrote prescrip- Rhodes tions for her husband, Scott Kern, and his mother, Patricia Kern. She also wrote prescriptions for her sister and brotherin-law, Brianne and Tim Herron. The report names six others as having received alleged illegitimate prescriptions from Rhodes. Dentists must be able to adequately explain why their patients are receiving long-term pain-management drugs. Rhodes husband began lling Oxycodone prescriptions in 2009, and over the next three years, the dentist accumulated more opiate-needing patients. In his criminal complaint, narcotics agent Gregory Policare said one pharmacist questioned Rhodes about the frequency and length of time one of her patients got the medicine. That CVS Pharmacy in Tunkhannock stopped getting prescriptions from Rhodes shortly after his inquiry, the report said. After obtaining a search warrant, Policare found two of the 10 patient les in question were missing. He also found that her ongoing prescriptions had no medical or dental founding, the report said. She denitely far exceeded the rules of her license with the inappropriate prescribing of potentially abusive drugs, Policare said in his report. A pre-trial hearing is scheduled for Aug. 8 before Wyoming County district Judge Carl Smith Jr. Joseph Yeager of Forty Fort is listed as Rhodes attorney. A receptionist at his ofce said Yeager would have no comment Tuesday. Upon a verdict, the Pennsylvania State Board of Dentistry will be notied, said Timothy Doherty of the Attorney Generals Ofce. Once a verdict or guilty plea takes place, then the board takes a separate action, Doherty said, explaining the two work independent of one another. With any type of action, the board could decide to revoke a practitioners license.
With the Transportation and Housing and Urban Development appropriations bill expected hit the voting block this week, U.S. Sen. Bob Casey, D-Scranton, is pushing for more money to be set aside for transportation funding. Several programs described in the bill look to address 5,543 structurally deficient bridges in the state and improve the public transportation and freight systems. If the bill passes, it Casey means more money would available for the Bridges in Critical Corridors program, and, in turn, could provide funds to rebuild or replace Luzerne Countys 122 out of 445 inadequate bridges. That constitutes 27 percent of the countys bridges. The bill also allocates for a preserved federal commitment to the Amtrak train system and use of the TIGER funds for specific improvement projects.

WYOMING
Luzerne County 911 callers will now hear a message urging them to remain on the line if a dispatcher doesnt pick up after four rings. A recent citizen complaint about unanswered calls prompted county ofcials to add the message on Monday. At least callers will hear something alerting them that dispatchers are busy instead of the phone just ringing, said interim 911 Executive Director Fred Rosencrans. The county also is exploring an alert that would tell 911 callers how many unprocessed calls are ahead of them if all dispatchers are busy, county Council Chairman Tim McGinley said in an email to council. However, Rosencrans said this option will require further discussion because it might cost money and could discourage callers from staying on the line if they believe the number of people ahead of them is too high, even though their call could be answered in seconds. The message alert added Monday was provided at no additional cost by the phone provider, Rosencrans said. The citizen complaint came from
Councilman Edward Brominski, who provided the name and phone number of a Kingston woman who said 911 failed to answer several phone calls. McGinley told council records show the woman called 911 at 3:30 p.m. July 25 and hung up when nobody answered after 50 seconds. She called back ve seconds later and hung up after 25 seconds. The 911 dispatcher called back within 30 seconds and spoke to the caller. The 911 phone system sends waiting calls to dispatchers in the order they come in as dispatchers are freed up, which means callers go to the back of the line when they hang up and call back, Rosencrans said. Hanging up doesnt get callers in quicker. It actually makes them lose their spot, he said. The 911 center was fully staffed but received a very unusual quantity of 15 calls in a two-minute period when the Kingston woman called, he said. Most of the callers were reporting an overturned vehicle on state Route 309 in the Back Mountain. The Kingston woman, who declined to be interviewed and named for a news article, was reporting a minor vehicle accident, Rosencrans said. I talked to her, and she was pleased with my
response, he said. Rosencrans said statistics show the countys 911 center exceeds the national standard of answering 90 percent of calls within 10 seconds. The county met that 10-second threshold on 98.6 percent of the 203,000 calls that came into the center from June 20, 2012, to the same date this year, he said. Hazleton Police Chief Frank DeAndrea publicly blasted the county emergency dispatch agency for supposed unanswered calls earlier this month, saying a July 5 shooting victim remained bleeding on the street for 20 minutes because people at the scene couldnt get an answer at 911. But a thorough review of 911s computerized database, which logs all answered and unanswered calls to the center, showed there were no missed 911 calls in the halfhour period before the shooting, Rosencrans said. Rosencrans said he spoke to DeAndrea on Monday, and the chief said he has not received additional information to support the claim that callers couldnt get through. The chief apologized to me and said he was only going on information he had at the scene, Rosencrans said. DeAndrea could not be reached for comment Tuesday.
WILKES-BARRE Off-duty police and probation ofcers providing security at Club Evolution and the Executive Lounge inside the Woodlands Inn and Resort are trained to watch for certain hand signals, the resorts director of security said Tuesday. The hand signals are a sign that gang members might be present in the dance club and lower level lounge, Katheryn Kaminski said. Patrons showing hand signals will be asked to stop or they will be removed from the facility, Kaminski said. Kaminski spoke during the second day of testimony before Luzerne County Judge Richard Hughes in the resorts appeal of the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Boards decision not to renew its liquor license. The resort on Route 315 in Plains Township employs 15 security personnel made up of police, probation and correctional ofcers, Kaminski said. About 12 are strategically positioned in and around Club Evolution and the Executive Lounge on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, with three or four more on call, she said. Security ofcials undergo training such as gang awareness and the use of pepper spray, Kaminski said. Attorney Richard Bishop, representing the Woodlands, asked Kaminski how has the gang problem evolved over the years. Kaminski, who has been with the resort in various positions since 1979, quickly replied, 2,000-percent since the mid-1980s. They bring bad business, gangs, Kaminski said. We dont want them. Kaminski said the latest instruction on gang awareness two weeks ago advised security personnel not to look at certain patrons ethnicity. Because the resort has a strict dress code, she said, gang members adapted to blend in with other patrons. Kaminski sometimes will stand in the middle of the dance oor inside Club Evolution on Thursday nights when the resort hosts under21 parties, she said. Hotel desk clerks, maintenance staff and those employed in the banquet rooms act as chaperons Thursday night to add a security presence. Anyone could be asked to leave at any time; were very strict, Kaminski said, noting the resort has a blacklist of people who are not permitted inside the dance club and lower-level lounge. The liquor control board in May denied a renewal of the resorts liquor license based on 10 violations of the liquor code dating back to 1987 and about 47 alleged incidents and disturbances reported to Plains Township police. The Woodlands purchased $247,016 worth of liquor and wine from May 2012 to April from state liquor stores, according to LCB statistics. Testimony is expected to conclude today.

Judge sends 3 PSU officials to trial

innocent and were not aware of the allegation against Sandusky in 2001. They say they had believed that Sandusky and the boy were engaged in nothing more than horseplay in a university locker room shower. Sandusky was convicted last year of 45 counts of child sexual abuse, but maintains his innocence and is appealing a 30- to 60-year state prison term. A football team graduate assistant in 2001, Mike McQueary, has testied he saw Sandusky and a boy engaged in a sex act in the locker room shower and within days reported it to coach Joe Paterno, Curley and Schultz. However, Curley and Schultz say McQueary never reported that the encounter was sexual in nature, and Spanier, in turn, has said Curley and Schultz never told him about any sort of sex abuse of a boy. The three were charged with perjury, obstruction, endangering the welfare of children, failure to properly report suspected abuse and conspiracy. Those charges include allegations of hiding evidence from investigators and lying to the grand jury. Curley and Schultz were initially charged in November 2011, when Sandusky was arrested, and accused of perjury and failure to properly report the incident. Spanier was forced out as president at that time. A year later, he was charged with covering up a complaint about Sandusky while additional charges were led against Curley and Schultz. Spanier remains a faculty member on administrative leave. Paterno was red and died in January 2012.

A group working to support Hillary Clintons prospective presidential bid has raised more than $1 million. An ofcial with the Ready For Hillary super PAC conrmed Tuesday that the organization hit the milliondollar threshold since beginning to collect donations in earnest this spring. The total will be reported in the groups nancial report on Wednesday. Clinton, who resigned as secretary of state in February, has not announced whether she will seek the presidency in 2016. But the super PAC dedicated to her political future has attracted several prominent donors and campaign operatives in recent months. Clinton is not formally connected to the group. She has been making public appearances and working on a book since leaving the State Department.

The driver of the train that derailed and killed 79 people in Spain was on the phone with a colleague and reading a document as his train barreled ahead at 95 mph almost twice the speed limit when the crash happened last week, according to a preliminary investigation released Tuesday. The train had been going as fast as 119 mph shortly before the derailment, and the driver activated the brakes seconds before the crash, according to a written statement from the court in Santiago de Compostela, whose investigators gleaned the information from two black box data recorders recovered from the train. The speed limit on the section of track was 50 mph.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. Seeking to ease Washington gridlock, President Barack Obama on Tuesday challenged Republicans to accept a new fiscal deal to cut corporate tax rates in exchange for more government spending on jobs programs. The offer was immediately panned by GOP lawmakers, who accused the president of repacking proposals he already supports and making no concessions to the opposing party. Obama announced the new offer during a visit to a massive Amazon. com plant in Chattanooga. He said serious people in both parties should accept his deal. Im willing to work with Republicans on reforming our corporate tax code, as long as we use the money from transitioning to a simpler tax system for a significant investment in creating middle-class jobs, Obama said. Thats the deal. Administration officials cast the corporate tax proposal as the first new economic idea the president plans to offer in the coming months.
With budget deadlines looming this fall, the White House is seeking to refocus Obamas agenda on the economy in order to rally public support for his ideas and increase his leverage over the GOP. Obama and Republicans have both long supported changes to the corporate tax code. But they differ over key details, including the exact rate and what should be done with any revenue generated by the changes. Georgia Republican Sen. Johnny Isakson, one of a handful of GOP senators meeting regularly with the White House on budget issues, also lambasted the administration Tuesday for seeking to split corporate tax reform from individual rates. You cant do that, Isakson said. Thatll never fly. Like Republicans, the president has previously called for tax reform to be coupled with an individual tax overhaul. His new offer drops that demand and calls only for lowering the corporate rate from 35 percent to 28 percent, with an even lower effective tax rate of 25 percent for manufacturers. In exchange, Obama wants lawmakers to pour the revenue generated
from the tax changes into job creation programs, such as manufacturing, infrastructure or community colleges. If were going to give businesses a better deal, were going to give workers a better deal, too, Obama said. Administration officials wouldnt put a price tag on the proposal or say how much money should be spent on the jobs programs Officials said money to pay for the job creation programs would come from a one-time revenue boost from measures such as changing depreciation rules or having a one-time fee on earnings held overseas. The U.S. has one of the highest corporate tax rates in the world, but many businesses avoid the full cost by taking advantage of deductions, credits and exemptions that Obama wants to eliminate. Obama wants to do away with corporate tax benefits such as oil and natural gas industry subsidies, special breaks for the purchase of private jets and certain corporate tax shelters. He also wants to impose a minimum tax on foreign earnings, a move opposed by multinational corporations and perhaps the most contentious provision in the presidents plan.
Manning guilty on many charges, not aiding enemy

Man who gave military secrets to Wikileaks faces 136 years in prison
The Associated Press
CAIRO
The European Unions top diplomat said Tuesday after meeting with deposed Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi that he is well, and that she urged all those she met with on the need to move forward peacefully after his ouster nearly a month ago. It was Morsis rst contact with the outside world since he was toppled in a military coup on July 3. Morsis status has emerged as a source of contention between Egypts interim leaders and the international community, with human rights groups insisting he either be charged or released.
Morsi is alive, diplomat says
FORT MEADE, Md. U.S. Army Pfc. Bradley Manning was acquitted of aiding the enemy the most serious charge he faced but was convicted of espionage, theft and other charges Tuesday, more than three years after he spilled secrets to WikiLeaks. The judge, Army Col. Denise Lind, deliberated for about 16 hours over three days before reaching her decision in a case that drew worldwide attention as supporters hailed Manning as a whistleblower. The U.S. government called him an anarchist computer hacker and attention-seeking traitor.
Manning stood at attention, anked by his attorneys, as the judge read her verdicts. He appeared not to react, though his attorney, David Coombs, smiled faintly when he heard not guilty on aiding the enemy, which carried a potential life sentence. When the judge was nished, Coombs put his hand on Mannings back and whispered something to him, eliciting a slight smile on the soldiers face. Manning was convicted on 19 of 21 charges, and he previously pleaded guilty to a charge involving an Icelandic cable. He faces up to 136 years in prison. His sentencing hearing begins today.
Coombs came outside the court to a round of applause and shouts of thank you from a few dozen Manning supporters. We won the battle, now we need to go win the war, Coombs said of the sentencing phase. Today is a good day, but Bradley is by no means out of the re. Mannings court-martial was unusual because he acknowledged giving the anti-secrecy website more than 700,000 battleeld reports and diplomatic cables, and video of a 2007 U.S. helicopter attack that killed civilians in Iraq, including a Reuters news photographer and his driver.

WASHINGTON Israeli and Palestinian negotiators agreed Tuesday to meet again within two weeks to start substantive negotiations on a so-far elusive peace deal with the goal of reaching a deal within nine months, Secretary of State John Kerry said. Speaking as the two sides wrapped up an initial two days of talks at the State Department after paying a visit to President Barack Obama at the White House, Kerry said Israel and the Palestinians were committed to sustained, continuous and substantive negotiations on the core issues that divide them. The next round of negotiations will take place in either Israel or the Palestinian territories, he said, at an as yet-unspecied date before mid-August. The parties have agreed here today that all of the nal status issues, all of the core issues and all other issues are all on the table for negotiation. And they are on the table with one simple goal: a view to ending the conict, Kerry said. Our objective will be to achieve a nal status agreement over the course of the next nine months. U.S. ofcials had previously said the negotiations would continue for a minimum of nine months without setting that as a timeframe for reaching a deal. Kerry said he was aware of the deep skepticism surrounding the new push for peace and acknowledged that the road ahead would be difcult. Yet, he said he was hopeful an agreement could be reached. While I understand the skepticism, I dont share it. And I dont think we have time for it, he said. I rmly believe the leaders, the negotiators and citizens invested in this effort can make peace for one simple reason: because they must, Kerry said. A viable two-state solution is the only way this conict can end. And there is not much time to achieve it. And there is no other alternative. Kerry said the negotiations, to be mediated on a day-to-day basis by his new Mideast peace envoy, Martin Indyk, would be cloaked in secrecy and that the parties had agreed that he would be the only person to comment on them. He quickly added that he would not comment on them, leaving unclear the framework for the talks that he struggled for six months to get back on track.

Attorneys want evidence in fatal hit-run tossed

SHEENA DELAZIO
[email protected]
WILKES-BARRE Attorneys for a Hanover Township man charged in a fatal hit-and-run accident have led court papers seeking to have evidence thrown out, including evidence taken in what attorneys say is an illegal seizure and search. Daniel Loughnane, 40, is facing a March trial on charges he allegedly left the scene after striking Rebecca McCallick, 19, with his vehicle on Hazle Avenue in July 2012 in Wilkes-Barre.
Loughnane is scheduled to appear in Luzerne County Court this afternoon for a bail hearing. His attorneys, Peter Paul Olszewski Jr. and Melissa Scartelli said in a 39-page ling a number of pieces of evidence and other items in the case should be thrown out. Loughnane Their requests include that: Still photos of a vehicle taken from a city surveillance video should be excluded. Testimony that a time
stamp on a security tape at Gentlemens Club 10 was 30 minutes fast should be excluded. Prosecutors say Loughnane was at the Wilkes-Barre Township establishment before the accident. The seizure of Loughnanes 2006 Ford truck and items from the truck be suppressed because the search and seizure was illegal and a violation of constitutional rights. A controlled test drive of Loughnanes vehicle to identify it by sound should be thrown out.
An audio version of a 911 call made by McCallicks boyfriend be thrown out because it has
no evidentiary value. Jurors in the case be questioned individually. Photos be sup-
pressed, including photos of the accident scene with McCallicks body in the roadway and
autopsy photos. A county judge will making a ruling on the requests at a later date.

WILKES-BARRE The mother of a county prison inmate who committed suicide while incarcerated on a parole violation has led a wrongful death suit against Luzerne County. Catherine Marie Jones Miller, of West Pittston, led the suit Tuesday through her attorney, Amil Minora of Scranton, against the county, county council, Manager Robert Lawton, the Luzerne County Correctional Facility, the county prison board and county corrections ofcers. The suit alleges wrongful death and seeks damages for pain and suffering, exceeding $100,000. According to the suit, Gary Allen Jones,
19, was an inmate at the county prison on a parole violation in December 2012. Jones previously had pleaded guilty and was originally sentenced in July 2011 to six to 23 months in prison on charges he took items from a West Pittston home. Court papers indicate he violated the terms of his parole and was lodged at the prison on Dec. 19. The suit says Jones was declared dead on Dec. 21 after he was found hanging in his cell. The suit alleges the defendants failed to supervise Jones, properly train corrections ofcers, ensure Jones safety, evaluate Jones mental and emotional condition and provide treatment. Jones death, the suit states, was a direct and proximate result of the defendants negligence.

Administration sues to stop same-sex marriages

BRAD BUMSTEAD
The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
HARRISBURG The Corbett administration on Tuesday led a lawsuit to stop the Montgomery County register of wills from issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples. Register of Wills D. Bruce Hanes has issued 34 licenses to gay couples. His deputy, Joan Nagle, said he would not comment, on the advice of counsel. The lawsuit in Commonwealth Court seeks a court order to halt the marriages the state contends are illegal. Hanes actions are in direct deance of the express policy of the commonwealth that marriage shall be between one man and one woman, said the complaint led by lawyers for the
Department of Health, an agency under Gov. Tom Corbetts jurisdiction. Hanes began issuing the licenses after Attorney General Kathleen Kane this month publicly announced she believes the states law banning gay marriage is unconstitutional. Kanes stance causes chaos and uncertainty, evidenced by the unlawful actions of gay mar-
riages in Montgomery County since her July 11 statement, said Corbetts general counsel, James D. Schultz.

Forum addresses workplace bullying

Times Leader Intern
TESS KORNFELD
WILKES-BARRE Attorney Kimberly Borland said there is news much of it bad and some good when it comes to the subject
of bullying in the workplace. Borland, a Wilkes-Barre lawyer, told a bullying forum on Tuesday about half the workers in the United States have experienced bullying or have witnessed it. Bullying is described as a

silent epidemic in the workplace, he said. The bad news is, he said, that victims of bullying are left with few options. For example, when victims raise the issue, it rarely works out in their favor. Fifty-seven percent of co-workers and peers act negatively toward the victim when the target reveals him or herself, Borland said, and, according to the Philadelphia Business Journal, 80 percent of targets who speak up lose their jobs. To me, that is unacceptable, he said. There is a bright side. This year, the Healthy Workplace Act was intro-
duced in the state House of Representatives, a proposal that prohibits abusive conduct in the workplace. The act would provide legal redress for employees who have been harmed psychologically, physically or economically by deliberate exposure to abusive work environments and to provide legal incentives for employers and respond to abusive treatment of employees at work. It was referred to the Committee on Labor and Industry on April 15 and has not moved since. There is recognition that this type of conduct exists and needs to be addressed, Borland said, adding, bullying is a far greater issue than just in the workplace. Attempting prevention Educational law attorney Jennifer Baker Laporta, Pennsylvania State Education Association representative Sheila Saidman and anti-bullying author Elaine Wolf joined Borland at the Wilkes-Barre JCC to discuss bullying in the workplace with 25 people on Tuesday. Little bullies grow up to be big bullies, Laporta said. Since being admitted to the Pennsylvania Bar in 1995, Laporta has represented management in labor and employment matters, and she trains employers on fair and equal practices. She said

it is important to convince them that bullying leads to problems. Bullying leads to a corporate culture where people do not want to stay. Through training, you can get that point across, she said. In addition, students are not the only people at school being bullied. As a consultant for the PSEA, Saidman deals with teachers every week who are being bullied by others. At least once a week I get a call from a teacher. They are being harassed, what can they do? she said. Borland said three quarters of the time the bully has
greater power and rank than the target. Wolf, the author of two novels with anti-bullying themes, Camp and Dannys Mom, was bullied herself when she was a teacher. There are bullies in all work places and there are adult bullies in schools, she said. Literary inspiration The main character in Dannys Mom, Beth Maller, is a high school counselor who launches an anti-bullying and homophobia campaign. As a result, she is bullied in the workplace, and her marriage and
job fall apart. As a high school teacher, I was in the trenches like she is, Wolf said. She always went to bat for (her) kids and was faced with repercussions. She was bullied by the assistant principal who, she said, would give her the worst proctoring assignments, for example. I was one of his victims, she said. Wolf, who lives in Northampton, Mass., uses her novels as a bully pulpit with hopes of making schools kinder places. It is a mission I embrace wholeheartedly, Wolf said.

WASHINGTON One year ago, the federal Environmental Protection Agency nished testing drinking water in Dimock, Susquehanna County, after years of complaints by residents who suspected that nearby natural gas production had fouled their wells. The EPA said that for nearly all the 64 homes whose wells it sampled, the water was safe to drink. Yet as the regulator moved to close its investigation, the staff at the Mid-Atlantic EPA ofce in Philadelphia, which had been sampling the Dimock water, argued for continuing the assessment. In an internal EPA PowerPoint presentation obtained by the Tribune/ Los Angeles Times Washington Bureau, staff members warned their superiors that several wells had been contaminated with methane and substances such as manganese and arsenic, most likely because of local natural gas production. The presentation, based on data collected over 4 1/2 years at 11 wells around Dimock, concluded that methane and other gases released during drilling (including air from the drilling) apparently cause signicant damage to the water quality. The presentation also concluded that methane is at signicantly higher concentrations in the aquifers after gas drilling and perhaps as a result of fracking (hydraulic fracturing) and other gas well work. Critics say the decision in July 2012 by EPA headquarters in Washington to curtail its investigation at Dimock over the objection of its on-site staff ts a troubling pattern at a time when the Obama administration has used the sharp increase in natural gas production to rebut claims that it is opposed to fossil fuels. In March 2012, the EPA closed an investigation of methane in drinking water in Parker County, Texas, although the geologist hired by the regulator conrmed that the methane was from gas production. In late June, the EPA dropped a study of possible contamination of drinking water in Pavillion, Wyo., despite its
earlier ndings of carcinogens, hydrocarbons and other contaminants in the water. We dont know whats going on, but certainly the fact that theres been such a distinct withdrawal from three high-prole cases raises questions about whether the EPA is caving to pressure from industry or antagonistic members of Congress, said Kate Sinding of the Natural Resources Defense Council, an environmental group. The EPA conrmed the authenticity of the presentation about the Dimock wells but said it was the work of one employee. This presentation represents one (on-scene coordinators) thoughts regarding 12 samples and was not shared with the public because it was a preliminary evaluation that requires additional assessment in order to ascertain its quality and validity, said EPA spokeswoman Alisha Johnson. The sampling and an evaluation of the particular circumstances at each home did not indicate levels of contaminants that would give EPA reason to take further action, Johnson said. Throughout EPAs work in Dimock, the agency used the best available scientic data to provide clarity to Dimock residents and address their concerns about the safety of their drinking water. At the same time, the energy industry and its congressional allies have hammered the EPA for undertaking the studies, which they say are a pretext for regulatory overreach. They have attempted to link fracking to water contamination in at least three cases, only to be forced to retract their statements after further scrutiny proved them to be unfounded, Rep. Lamar Smith, R-Texas, chairman of the House Science Committee, said at a recent hearing. Robert B. Jackson, professor of environmental sciences at Duke University, who has researched methane contamination in the Dimock area and recently reviewed the presentation, said he was disappointed by the EPAs decision. Whats surprising is to see this data set and then to see EPA walk away from Dimock, Jackson said. The issue here is, why wasnt EPA interested in following up on this to understand it better?

Mastro
From page 1A If all men were as devoted to their wife as he was, the world would be a better place, Mastro said. While Mastro never lived at any of the three Waverly-area homesteads the Scrantons resided in, their homes were always within miles of his own house that he shared with his parents until they died three decades ago. Mastro never married and said his time was dedicated to caring for both the Scrantons and his own parents. Mastro worked as a groundskeeper, handyman and more for the Scrantons, first at their home in Glenburn, then at their Marworth estate in Waverly and finally and to this day at their Infield estate near Lilly Lake in Waverly. As Scranton climbed the political ladder first serving one term in Congress from 1961-62, then a term as Pennsylvanias 38th governor from 1963-67 Mastro did was what asked of him. Often it meant caring more for the house, Mary and the children than Mr. Scranton, as Mastro still calls him, as he was often away from the homestead. As long as you did your work, Mr. Scranton never hollered at you. Hed never order you to do anything. Hed always say, Would you please do this when you get a chance, Mastro said during an interview in which he kept speaking about his longtime boss in the present tense. Mastro said he felt and was treated as if he was part of the family and noted that as a thankyou gift for 50 years of service, the Scrantons gave him a new Cadillac in 2003. Intersecting with politics Though Mastro thought his time in the Scrantons employ would be short, as time went on and years passed and Scranton climbed the political ladder running for president in 1964 and later serving as ambassador to the United Nations he found himself enjoying his work and his interactions with Scranton. I do not regret one minute of it, Mastro said. In addition to meeting dignitaries including the late former congressman and President Gerald Ford and the late former U.S. senator and ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge, Mastro said he remembers a party hosted by the Scrantons in Waverly for ambassadors from the United Nations. They were there dressed in their native garb; it was quite the sight to see, Mastro said with a chuckle. And it rained so hard everyone had to stay indoors. Mastro said that while there was no doubt Scranton came from wealth and was wealthy himself, he never looked down on anyone. He was always for the lower class. He was raised in a well-off family, but the whole family cared for other people, said Mastro, whose father, Frank, worked for Marys mother and step-father in a similar capacity as Mastro worked for the Scrantons. The last time Mastro saw Scranton was in May, when his boss came to Waverly to tend to some affairs. His eyesight was fading but other than that, said Mastro, his health seemed relatively good for a 95-year-old. When Scranton left, Mastro said, he told his longtime employee, I hope to see you soon. Those hopes ended Sunday when Scranton passed. The community has lost a great citizen; he was a very modest and caring person, said Mastro. Personally, I lost a very good friend. I got to love him as a friend.

OTHER OPINION: BILL OF RIGHTS
Our favorite Freedom: Free speech wins big

When it comes to the Bill of Rights, whats not to like? The rst 10 amendments to the Constitution afrm fundamental freedoms guaranteed to all Americans. If we had to choose a favorite, it would be hard to argue against the First Amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. It has so much packed into it, ve liberties that share the singular ideal that the peoples minds are their own. Americans may believe, say, print, discuss and ask for what they want, regardless of whether the government likes it. Only in the most narrowly circumscribed ways may the government interfere. And if we had to choose just one of those ve rights, we might go with a free press lest we lose our journalist cards, but free speech would be in the running. We were heartened, then, to see that a plurality of Americans surveyed also recognize just how valuable free speech is. In the most recent annual survey by the First Amendment Center at the Newseum, nearly half of Americans (47 percent) named speech as their favorite freedom. Nothing else even came close. Religion came in second (10 percent), followed by freedom of choice (7 percent) and the rights to vote and bear arms (5 percent each) You can read the full report online at rstamendmentcenter.org. Not everyone loves the First Amendment, though. About one-third of Americans surveyed think it goes too far. That was almost double the rate of the previous year. The survey did not probe why so many people believe the First Amendment is too broad, but its not hard to speculate. Last year saw a bitter presidential campaign, political polarization has many people sick of hearing from the other side, the Internet makes it easier than ever for anyone to say the rst asinine thing that comes to mind and government leakers reveal embarrassing national secrets. The report itself speculates that the Boston Marathon bombing might have had something to do with it. The survey was conducted soon afterward, and a similar spike occurred after Sept. 11, 2001. In the aftermath of terrorism, Americans are more willing to temporarily compromise freedom in the name of security. Even more worrisome, the rate of disapproval of the First Amendment is greater among young people. If that trend holds, it does not bode well for the future. When an idea challenges, it is a fools errand to try to squelch it. The best counter to speech is more speech, a marketplace of ideas from which the best can emerge. As soon as government begins to pick and choose which speech, which religion, which meetings and which press are worthwhile, the game is lost. Free speech is a cornerstone of a successful democracy, necessary for an informed electorate. The people must be able to talk about what their government does without fear of reprisals. If Americans could not criticize elected ofcials who do bad things, if they could not praise those who do good things and if they could not freely discuss the issues of the day, government would be less accountable and public life far less vibrant.

OTHER OPINION: MIDEAST TALKS
World will be watching as peace talks resume

The beginning Monday in Washington of peace talks between the Israelis and Palestinians was a momentous event, whatever the eventual results. The problem between the two groups, which has persisted since 1948, is considered to be the root of the multi-front faceoff between the West and the Muslim world which continues to torment both sides. To the United States credit, it has continued to seek a resolution, in spite of the setbacks. The quest has claimed the lives of other leaders who have tried to play a useful role, including Israeli Prime Minister Itzhak Rabin and Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, who were assassinated by extremists for having sought progress toward an accord. The meeting at the Department of State last night was intended to set a schedule for open-ended talks, including venues. Therefore, the rst meeting was not intended to tackle the issues at the heart of the matter: borders for the two states, return of Palestinians, recognition of Israel as a Jewish state, the future of Jerusalem and security. Both parties already know the likely resolutions of these issues, but knowing that and reaching formal agreement are different matters. The resumption of talks, after a gap of three years, is a tribute to the monumental efforts of Secretary of State John F. Kerry. He has made six trips to the region since conrmation as President Barack Obamas second secretary of state in January. Some players in the region have scoffed at his efforts, prideful in their unwillingness to see an agreement concluded. There are obviously problems on both sides. The Israelis seem determined to keep building and pouring settlers now numbering a halfmillion into the West Bank, which would be the core of an independent Palestine. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahus governments have shown little willingness in the past to take on the settlers and the rest of the Israeli right-wing. On the other hand, Mr. Netanyahu, rst, may be coming up to legacy time and, second, is aware of Israels vulnerability in a neighborhood that is coming unstuck, surrounded by Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, the Palestinian territories and Syria. The Palestinians remain divided, between Fatah in the West Bank and Hamas in the Gaza Strip. At the same time, no matter what their leaders say, the Palestinians still want their own nation very much, and should click together if prospects improve. The world will be watching these talks closely. They matter a great deal. Pittsburgh Post Gazette
In the epic movie A Bridge Too Far, which dramatized the failed Allied Market Gardens push into Germany during World War II, one scene shows Robert Redford leading troops across a river under heavy re while paddling canvassided boats with gusto and a prayer. Hail Mary, full of grace, Hail Mary, full of grace, Redfords character repeats. Its not quite that Mark dramatic when you paddle beneath the badly Guydish deteriorating railroad Contributing bridge spanning the Columnist Susquehanna river near the Harding section of Exeter Township, but its getting close. Huge chunks of stone piers are gone, with some of the remaining masonry looking ready to crash down on you. Wires and ropes either part of the decaying structure or foolhardy additions by trespassers dangle perilously. And debris both natural and manmade, stacked higher than any human is tall wraps around the upriver side of the pillars. It is triple testimony: To the golden age when the Iron Horse toted the Black Diamond to make this region grow; to the progress that made those industries obsolete and changed the growth from money to rust; and to our regional and national knack for letting proteers reap rewards from the land without paying later costs of their pillage. Jen Learn-Andes story in Mondays paper about the plight of that bridge recurring false promises to tear it down for one last prot thanks to the value of the scrap metal summed the sad saga in stark terms.
A damaged stone pillar and collected debris under the bridge.

There was a time this span could have been saved for what by todays dollars would have been a pittance, converted perhaps into a pedestrian walkway, made part of a rails to trails project, or something else a coat of paint, a new deck and a safety fence might have accomplished. But that time is long past. It is t for nothing more than demolition and salvage, and the travesty occurred when salvage value threatened to exceed demolition costs. Rust does that. Now the bridge is owned by the embattled Leo Glodzik. It landed in his lap like a version of the childhood game hot potato. He just happened to be the last would-be-proteer hapless enough to catch it. By most accounts, Glodzik is in no position to raze the bridge, yet it must be razed. And it is increasingly likely taxpayers will foot the bill. The bridge presents a growing and real threat to those who might unwisely venture upon it, those who paddle
beneath it, and most frighteningly, though least likely those who live upstream of it. A dam created by deluge-pushed debris or ice near its piers could devastate upriver communities. It is, pardon the movie pun, a bridge too far gone. Asking why it reached this pathetic and costly point makes it something more important to taxpayers. Why was it included in a rail purchase deal made by the Luzerne County Redevelopment Authority when it was already a clear liability? Why were previous owners allowed to let it become such a risk? Why did someone like Glodzik get to buy it apparently with nothing in writing assuring it would be dismantled, without giving proof they could afford to do the job? Apologies to fans of the 1957 classic with William Holden and Alec Guinness, but this has become the Bridge Over the River Why

Sequestration cuts risk mine safety

Senator Bob Casey should be paying more attention to the unfortunate reduction in Mine Safety Health Administration funding he was complicit in before trying to play friend of coal in his home district. MSHA is consolidating ofces in the Northeastern region not because mining is down, but because Casey and his peers in Congress could not agree on cuts necessary to avoid the sequestration clause in the Budget Control
Act of 2011. When sequestration nally took effect in March, MSHA announced it was losing $30 million and Assistant Secretary Joe Main fearfully lamented the possibly dangerous consequences of a smaller budget. Most disappointingly, the biggest cuts were made to the 74-person legal team (30 were laid off) assembled to collect the $70 million in overdue safety nes. MSHA knows it is in trouble and should be sending letters to Casey, asking why he didnt do anything to stop it.

Inquest
From page 1A the head. Alinski also pleaded with the 911 dispatcher to send help, told the dispatcher there are large amounts of blood and that Gailie is not breathing. Alinski was called to testify Monday, but invoked her Fifth Amendment right, which protects against the possibility of self-incrimination. (Alinski) hadnt heard from (investigators) in two years, Marchalk said, noting his client was shocked to learn of the inquest hearing. Weve only heard one side of the case and witnesses were not subject to cross examination. On Tuesday, forensic pathologist Gary Ross testied he believed Gailies death was a homicide based on an autopsy he performed. Ross said nothing about Gailies death was consistent with a suicide. Gailies father, Frank, told the inquest his son was a handsome, happy-go-lucky guy, with a great sense of humor. He said his son did not exhibit signs of depression or suicide and that the two had scheduled a golf trip for the week after his sons death. Matthew Ryan Gailie enjoyed his job as a state corrections ofcer, Frank Gailie said, noting he had little interaction with Alinski over the course of her relationship with his son. Matthew Ryan Gailies boss and co-workers also testied Gailie seemed normal that night after work. A state trooper testied there was a 16-minute difference in the time neighbors heard a gunshot or bang, around 11:30 p.m. and the time Alinski made a 911 call. A forensic psychiatrist, Richard Fischbein, did a psychological autopsy on Matthew Ryan Gailie and determined he did not have high risk factors that would cause him to commit suicide. Alinskis mother, sister and step-father also testied Tuesday that Alinski had a rough relationship with Gailie, and that the two often fought. A forensic scientist talked about about gunshot residue samples taken from Alinski and Gailie, and said that Alinski had more particles on her hands and clothing than Gailie did.

Stevens
From page 1A at the Hazle Township Senior Citizens Center in 2008. To have the ceremony there instead of at the state Capitol, Solano had said, spoke to Stevens humility, respect for his roots and caring nature for senior citizens. Doubly honored State Rep. Tarah Toohil, R-Butler Township, said she was doubly honored to speak at the ceremony, noting that not only is Stevens her constituent, but also her predecessor in the 116th Legislative District. Toohil outlined the responsibilities of a state representative, but said Stevens went so far beyond that in his career. He was known as one of the number one advocates for senior citizens. And hes remembered for that by his constituents still, she said. Luzerne County District Attorney Stefanie Salavantis congratulated Stevens on a storied career culminating in this appointment. She reviewed many aspects of the DAs job in addition to a prosecutor from an accountant overseeing a multimilliondollar budget to a shoulder to crime victims and said Stevens has fullled each of those roles, recognizing the importance of the rights of defendants as well as being a dedicated advocate for what he deemed as the equally important rights of victims. As DA, Stevens also worked closely with police too closely sometimes, from stories Ive heard, Salavantis said, choosing to share one of the more tame stories she has heard about him, sions online for public review. Before reading her fathers commission from Gov. Corbett, Brittany Jane Stevens said her father had always been very involved in his childrens lives, supporting them academically and attending all their school functions and sporting events. I am very proud of my dad on this special day. For someone as committed, passionate, motivated, honest and trustworthy with his work, my dad has certainly earned this very honorable position on the Supreme Court, she said. Candidate from the start Lt. Gov. James Cawley said there were many individuals who deserved consideration when the high court vacancy opened, but there was one name in particular that kept coming up and immediately rose to the top, and that was the name of Judge Corry Stevens, noting Stevens integrity, professionalism and sterling reputation. I want to thank you for limiting your elected interests primarily to the legislative and judicial branches of government, because there is little doubt that if you had turned your attention to becoming lieutenant governor three years ago, I wouldnt be standing here right now, Cawley joked. Chief Justice Ronald D. Castille administered the oath of ofce to Stevens as his wife, Louise, held the Bible. He wants no mysteries After he donned his

when he attended a 6 a.m. drug raid after handing out information packets to police. When they got to the suspects house, the detective forgot he was the DA, thought he was a police ofcer and said, You cover the back, Salavantis said. So at 6 a.m., we have Judge Stevens standing in a back yard, covering the door in case a drug dealer ran out. Fortunately, police apprehended the drug dealer and no one was injured. Salavantis thanked Corbett and the Senate on behalf of the county and commonwealth for appointing us with this amazing man as the next Supreme Court justice. Luzerne County President Judge Thomas Burke asked why anyone would question why Stevens chose the county courthouse for his oath of
ofce. Burke said historians tell us that when Abraham Lincoln spoke of government of the people, by the people and for the people in his Gettysburg address, Lincolns emphasis was on the people. Clearly, this has been the hallmark of Judge Stevens public service in all three branches of government. State Superior Court President Judge Kate Ford Elliott said it was with mixed feelings that she was saying farewell to a friend and congratulations to the newest justice of the Supreme Court. Elliott said the Superior Court has come to rely on (Stevens) leadership and his sound judgment as president judge, and that through his efforts, the court has become more transparent, with the posting of all deci-
new robes, Stevens said the ceremony is more than about me, this ceremony is about you, each of you, for the way that over time that I have met you, you have taught me, you have inspired me, you have encouraged me. Courts should not be secretive or mysterious, he said, noting that as president judge of the Superior Court, he encouraged wider use of the court website by the public. He said judicial decision making cannot be based on public opinion or on the personal belief of the individual judge. Decisions must be made on the law, Stevens said. Noting his appointment was only to ll a vacancy for the next two and a half years, Stevens said its not my nature to be a seat warmer and wants to be an active participant. And, Stevens said, he wanted to make it clear that he does not intend to be a tie-breaker on the Supreme Court. Thats not how I want to be remembered in my judicial career. He said lawyers who suggest that justices decide cases along political party lines do a disservice to all the judiciary in Pennsylvania. Stevens asked one thing of the public: Please do not judge me during this time of my appointment on any one particular decision. At the end of two and a half years, if you can look back and you can say he was diligent, he was fair, he was impartial, then I have earned your respect and the people of Pennsylvania have been properly served.

From page 1A Kazimi pointed to a state estimate that 17,000 vehicles cross the Market Street Bridge daily as one reason a developer will want to invest in the Sterling site. Were really very optimistic, Kazimi said. The new development that comes in will improve the entire block and focus attention on the entire block. Optimism strong Linda Armstrong was setting up the new headquarters of Dress for Success in a former real estate ofce at 38 W. Market St., on Tuesday as demolition crews picked at the lingering Sterling carcass a stones throw away. From the shadows of destruction, were rebuilding, said Armstrong, executive director of the organization, which provides clothing and training for women seeking employment and job advancement. Volunteers have used donated supplies to convert the shabby ofces into a professional place for women to learn new skills for an Aug. 13 grand opening, and Armstrong is condent ofcials will attract something impressive to the Sterling parcel. Its going to be beautiful, she said. This block needs to be cleaned up, and were also helping to revitalize the city. A section of the West Market Street Sterling block is occupied by a hulking, vacant 45,000-square-foot building that once housed nancial institutions and a post ofce. Mericle Commercial Real Estate broker Steve M. Barrouk, who is trying to
Winnipeg 72/54 Billings 81/58 Montreal 79/63 New York 85/69 Detroit 80/66 Washington 86/70
sell the century-old structure for owner 24 West Market WB LLC, said the Sterling demolition should make the property more attractive. The condition that existed at the Sterling has been a detriment to us trying to market our property. The building was blighted. There was uncertainty of what would happen, and the road was closed, Barrouk said, referring to trafc barriers the city erected around the Sterling. Parking issue raised Barrouk wants a building constructed where the Sterling stands but also urges city ofcials to incorporate parking to support both the new construction and other existing buildings in the plan. Parking could be tucked at the rear of a new structure, he said. Parking still remains an issue for a lot of buildings over there. The building I represent has no parking, and every time I take someone into that building, the issue is parking, he said. G2A-B Realty LLC, a corporation owned by Bear Creek Village resident George Asimakapolous, also needs a commitment of parking to proceed with plans to renovate the four-story brick Hotel Sterling Annex into housing units, Barrouk said. G2A-B purchased the annex from the Greater WilkesBarre Chamber of Business and Industry in May 2012. Barrouk said the Sterling block has potential but will require collaborative municipal planning. That area is crying out for help. Hopefully, somebody will pay attention to it, he said.

A-Rod
From page 1B Q: What penalties face Alex Rodriguez and why? A: Rodriguez is among at least a dozen players MLB had been investigating since the Miami New Times published documents in January alleging links between major leagues and Biogenesis of America, a closed anti-aging clinic in Coral Gables accused of distributing banned performance- enhancing drugs. A-Rod faces up to a lifetime ban, with the Yankees expecting him to be accused of recruiting other athletes for the clinic, attempting to obstruct MLBs investigation, and not being truthful with MLB in the past when he discussed his relationship with Dr. Anthony Galea, who pleaded guilty two years ago to a federal charge of bringing unapproved drugs into the United States from Canada. Q: What will he be suspended for and why? A: If he does not agree to a deal with MLB, he may be suspended rst for violations of baseballs collective bargaining agreement, which would prevent him from playing while the union les a grievance and an arbitrator determines whether the penalty meets a just cause standard. MLB may use a provision in the Basic Agreement that states : Players may be disciplined for just cause for conduct that is materially detrimental or materially prejudicial to the best interests of baseball including, but not limited to, engaging in conduct in violation of federal, state or local law. Rodriguez could later be suspended for violating the Joint Drug Agreement. He has never been suspended under the JDA, and a suspension for a rst offender is served only after an arbitrator upholds the penalty. Q: Why are suspensions for players linked to the Biogenesis investigation likely this week? A: The penalty for a rst positive test for steroids under the Joint Drug Agreement is a 50-game suspension, and that appears to be the likely discipline for several players MLB has targeted. This is the last week a player could accept a 50-game suspension and serve it in time to return either for the postseason, if his team advances, or the start of the 2014 season. Q: How likely is a lifetime ban for Rodriguez? A: If Rodriguez agrees to accept a suspension and doesnt ask the players association to le a grievance challenging the penalty, the suspension likely would be for a year or two. If MLB announces a penalty unilaterally, if could be a lifetime ban, but an arbitrator could reduce it after a hearing. When Commissioner Fay Vincent suspended Yankees pitcher Steve Howe for life in 1992, after his seventh suspension for drugs or alcohol, arbitrator George Nicolau reduced the penalty to 119 days.
New York Yankees Alex Rodriguez, center, is shown playing for the Trenton Thunder during a rehab game earlier this month. Rumors have Rodriguez not playing again this season as the threat of a suspension hangs over him.

LLWS to tighten security efforts

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT The organizers of the Little League World Series in central Pennsylvania are planning to tighten security in the wake of the Boston Marathon bombings. The Williamsport Sun-Gazette reports that on Monday the organi-
zation announced tighter security measures, including more security cameras and increased restrictions. Little League World Series festivities begin Aug. 14 and culminate with the Aug. 25 championship game. Little League spokesman Brian McClintock says an assessment of security measures is done every
few years, but that the organization decided to take a closer look after the marathon bombings. He declined to say how many additional cameras would be installed. The organization is also increasing participating in the governors Ofce of Homeland Securitys campaign See Something, Send Something.
After errors dig SWB into hole, RailRiders squander comeback bid
The Times Leader staff
INDIANAPOLIS After giving up two runs on a throwing error and a wild pitch, the RailRiders threatened late in the game, but failed to score as Scranton/WilkesBarre dropped its second straight game in a 3-2 loss to Indianapolis on Tuesday at Victory Field. Although errors plagued S c ra n t o n / Wi l ke s - B a r re , the RailRiders remained
in the game until the last out. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre faced a one-run decit in the top of the ninth when Randy Ruiz led off the inning with a single. After David Adams ied out, Thomas Neal ripped a double to left eld. Pinch runner Corey Patterson tried to score from rst on the extra-base hit but failed as he was thrown out at home. With two outs and a runner in scoring position, Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre squandered the
opportunity as Bo Wilson struck out to end the game. Dan Johnson led the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre offense with two doubles, including an RBI ground-rule double in the rst inning. Garcia also added two hits, while Alberto Gonzalez chipped in a hit and an RBI in the loss. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre will try to stop its two-game skid today at 1:35 p.m. against Indianapolis.

Q: Any other lifetime bans in baseball? A: The most famous occurred in 1921, when Commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis banned Chicago White Sox pitchers Eddie Cicotte and Claude Lefty Williams, rst baseman Chick Gandil, shortstop Charles Swede Risberg, third baseman Buck Weaver, outelders Shoeless Joe Jackson and Happy Felsh and inelder Fred McMullen for throwing the 1919 World Series against Cincinnati. Landis acted a day after they were acquitted on criminal charges. Philadelphia Phillies inelder Gene Paulette (1921), New York Giants pitcher Shufin Phil Douglas (1922), New York Giants outelder Jimmy OConnell and coach Cozy Dolan (1924) and Philadelphia Phillies president William D. Cox (1943) were banned either for life or indenitely over gambling or bribery issues, and New York Giants outelder Benny Kauff (1921) was suspended indenitely by Landis following his indictment on charges of auto theft and possession of a stolen car. Cincinnati manager Pete Rose agreed to a lifetime ban in 1989 following an investigation of his gambling. Yankees owner George Steinbrenner agreed to a lifetime ban effective in August 1990 for his dealings with selfdescribed gambler Howard Spira and was reinstated in March 1993. Q: How did this happen to Rodriguez? A: MLB has been investigating the three-time AL MVP over various periods since February 2009, when he acknowledged using
performance-enhancing drugs while with Texas from 2001-03. Rodriguez has denied using them since. He met with baseball investigators in March 2009, then met with them again in March 2010 and told them he didnt receive PEDs from Dr. Anthony Galea, who treated Rodriguez without the Yankees consent following hip surgery in 2009. Galea pleaded guilty in 2011 to a federal charge of bringing unapproved drugs into the United States from Canada. As part of the Biogenesis probe, Rodriguez met again with baseball investigators on July 12 this year. Q: How much will this cost him? A: Hard to put an exact gure on it until the length of the suspension is determined. Rodriguez is baseballs highest-paid player this year at $28 million. If hes suspended Wednesday for the rest of the season, he would lose $8,508,366 under the formula in baseballs Joint Drug Agreement: 56 games (the total remaining for the Yankees) divided by 183 (the number of days this season) times his salary. He is owed an additional $86 million by the Yankees over the next four years: $25 million in 2014, $21 million in 2015 and $20 million in each of the nal two seasons. Not at risk is a $3 million payment from the Yankees on Jan. 15, the nal installment of his signing bonus, and $36 million-plus interest owed by Texas from 2016-25, funds that were deferred in his contract with the Rangers and converted to an assignment bonus at the time of his trade to the Yankees in 2004.

Heartbreak
From page 1B schools dropped the rst game of the league championship tournament nals before winning that title. And playing with one tournament loss, Greater Pittston captured an 11-inning victory over Jersey Shore, then later that day rallied with six runs in the eighth inning to beat mighty Swoyersville for the Region 5 title. This one denitely hurt, though, Maloney said. Couple balls dropping here and there this one was crushing. Nobody really crushed the ball against Maloney, who allowed just three hits over eight brilliant innings before being relieved with the game tied 1-1. The only damage against him came Twin Valley scored the games rst run in the fth inning, when Kyle Travits walked, Jonathan Abbadusky singled and Izzack Albright walked on a controversial call to load the bases with two outs. I thought that (last) pitch was an easy strike for a strikeout, Ranieli complained. Maloney then hit Matt McInaw to force home Travits. Other than that, Maloney was practically untouchable, striking out six while keeping Twin Valley from advancing anyone else past second base. I had all my pitches working, Maloney said. My curveball was working. The goal was to get ahead and make them put the ball in play. Greater Pittston played small ball to tie the game. Jake Granteed ripped a two-out single in the seventh inning, stole second base, then rode home on Joe Gavenonis sharp single to center eld. That was all the scoring until the 11th, as Maloney kept Twin Valley bafed until giving way to Greater Pittston relief corps to start the ninth inning. He shut them down the whole game, Ranieli said. Their run was scored on no hits. But Greater Pittston couldnt get many either. Yet, Greater Pittston put runners in scoring position with a chance to win the game in both the bottom of the eighth and ninth innings, but couldnt push one more across the board. Maloney began the eighth by lining a single to center eld and was quickly sacriced to second base by Justin Martinelli. But Maloney was stranded there when Twin Valley reliever Eric Ryan recorded a strikeout and a y out. And Jordan Zezza gave Greater Pittston hope by slamming a one-out single in the ninth, then taking second base on a ground out. But he didnt make it any farther, either. Weve been off for a little bit, Maloney said, noting Greater Pittston hasnt played since winning the Region 5 championship last Wednesday, havent seen live pitching in awhile. Well be alright, though. Twin Valley earned the right to play in the winners bracket today by rallying for two runs in the 10th. Albright began the uprising by riing a double off the bottom of the right eld wall. McInaw reached on a bunt single and Ryan Plank was hit by a pitch, lling the bases and putting Greater Pittston in a world of trouble. But Greater Pittston nearly escaped from it. Shortstop Martinelli gunned down Albright at the plate on an ineld bouncer, and relief pitcher Granteed fanned the innings second out. Thats when Witmer plunked his two-out, two-run single just inside the line in short right eld, bringing home McInaw and pinch runner Miles Moeller with the games nal two runs. Sometimes it goes your way and sometimes it goes against you, Ranieli said. Today, it went against us. But weve got to score more than one run to win games in this tournament.

Cops: OSU backs case closed

American expects inclusion at top level

RALPH D. RUSSO
AP College Football Writer
COLUMBUS, Ohio A little over a week after he was suspended by Ohio State coach Urban Meyer for an alleged assault against a woman, running back Carlos Hyde had his case dropped on Tuesday by Columbus police. Police spokesman Sgt. Rich Weiner said the alleged victim chose not to pursue charges against the Buckeyes leading scorer and second-leading rusher a year ago. We were in the middle of our investigation, Weiner said. The most important thing left to do was interview the (alleged) victim. She met with investigators on Saturday and informed ofcers that she didnt want to pursue charges. Weiner said the case against Hyde was ofcially closed. Hyde had been suspended from all team activities in the wake of the incident, which occurred July 20 at a downtown bar. Ohio State and Meyer did not immediately offer comment on whether Hyde will be reinstated to the team. Hyde, a 6-foot-2, 242-pound senior from Naples, Fla., scored 17 touchdowns and 102 points to lead the Buckeyes to a 12-0 record last fall. He gained 970 yards on 185 carries, coming within 30 yards of becoming the rst running back in Meyers coaching career to reach 1,000 yards in a season.

MINNEAPOLIS When Minnesota took Philip Nelsons redshirt off at midseason, Gophers fans howled about the potential waste of a year of eligibility for a well-regarded recruit. The upside to his earlier-thanexpected experience is the extra condence he can take into his
sophomore year. Despite being the only quarterback on the roster who has taken a college snap, though, Nelson wont be without competition when fall practice begins this weekend. Given the zone read running plays the Gophers frequently use, the quarterback is prone to taking plenty of hits in this offense. So coach Jerry Kills wish is to keep his starter fresh. Do I want to play ipping quarterbacks and all that? No. Is there a place and time? Yes, according to whats happening in that particular game plan, Kill said. Freshman Mitch Leidner, who redshirted last year, is behind Nelson on the depth chart in light of MarQueis Grays graduation and Max Shortells decision to transfer. Freshmen Chris Streveler and Donovahn Jones will be evaluated closely in camp, too. Kill raved about Leidners strong nish in the spring game. This is clearly Nelsons job to lose, but he has a long way to go. Nelson completed only 49.3 per-
cent of his passes, for eight touchdowns and eight interceptions in seven games.
Michigan State
EAST LANSING, Mich. Michigan State University says junior offensive tackle Skyler Burkland is quitting the Spartans football program because of multiple injuries and will forgo his nal two years of college eligibility. Coach Mark Dantonio says Burkland applied for a medical disqualication Tuesday. Once the paperwork is approved, Burkland will remain on scholarship but wont count toward the NCAAs 85-man scholarship limit. The 6-foot-7-inch, 315-pound Burkland saw action in 15 career games, including 14 starts at right tackle. The Sunbury, Ohio, native missed part of preseason camp and the rst game of the 2012 season against Boise State in 2012 with a hand injury. He also broke and dislocated his left ankle against Notre Dame in 2011.
NEWPORT, R.I. With change on the horizon for college sports, American Athletic Conference Commissioner Mike Aresco wants everyone to know his league has the resources and the will to be included with the top football conferences in the country. Aresco opened the rst football media day for the conference formerly known as the Big East on Tuesday by touting its accomplishments and making the case that the American is not so dissimilar to the Atlantic Coast Conference, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-12 and Southeastern Conference. Whatever the highest level of Division I is in the future, we expect to be part of it, he said. The commissioners of the ve most powerful conferences have been pushing the NCAA to reform how its rules and policies are made and enforced. Some have suggested it could lead to a new level of college sports for the schools with the most resources. A Division 4 as Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby called it. A key issues has been the desire of the big ve conferences to give a stipend to scholarship athletes of about $2,000 per year that would cover the full cost of attendance. An NCAA proposal for it was shot down by smaller schools. Aresco said he and his members share many of the concerns of the big ve conferences. Having said that, we all need more detail as what such a fourth division might entail, how it would be governed, the costs associated with it, Aresco said. Theres been a lot of discussion about it but there arent really a lot of
hard details at this point. Our presidents and our athletic directors will weigh in once more is known. But our strong indication is to do what is necessary to be part of such a division if restructuring occurs. The American trails far behind the big ve in terms of revenue it will generate in the coming years. Most of the $5.6 billion ESPN is set to pay over the 12 years starting in 2014 to broadcast the College Football Playoff goes to the big ve, and the Americans latest TV deal pays its members a fraction of what schools in the top ve conferences make. The ravages of conference realignment led to the Big East re-inventing itself as the American, but some things remain the same. The league ofces are still in Providence and it still opens its football season with a clambake in this northeast vacation spot. The American nally has some stability, without a looming threat of more defections, but its also still in ux. Louisville, the conference favorite, is in its last season before moving to the ACC. Rutgers is heading to the Big Ten after this season. Joining the other Big East holdovers Connecticut, Temple, Cincinnati and South Florida this season are Memphis, Central Florida, Houston and SMU. Next season Tulane, Tulsa and East Carolina join. Navy is set to join in 2015 to give the American 12 teams and the ability to play a football title game. The American champion will play in the BCS this year, but when that goes away starting in 2014 it will have to compete with the Mountain West, Sun Belt, Mid-American and Conference USA for one spot in the best bowl games.
Steelers
From page 1B This is denitely the best shape I have ever been in since I have been in the league, Dwyer said. I just want to continue to be like this the rest of my career. A career that will likely continue elsewhere next season if he fails to gain any traction this fall. The same goes for Redman, who rushed for a 121 yards in a loss to Denver in the playoffs two years ago and has shown ashes of brilliance but cant seem to stay out of the training room. The issue isnt necessarily production, but persistence. Every step forward for both players has been met by a step back. Dwyer posted consecutive 100-yard games last October only to go down with a hamstring injury. Redman responded by piling up a career-high 147 yards in a victory over the Giants but was ineffective a week later against the Chiefs and collected just 26 carries total over the nal seven games. Dwyer wasnt the same after his hamstring healed. A pair of ill-timed fumbles didnt help matters. While the Steelers hardly batted an eye when the enigmatic Mendenhall opted to sign with Arizona in free agency, they also left little doubt Redman and Dwyer
African rugby player getting acclimated to NFL

AP Sports Writer
MICHAEL MAROT
ANDERSON, Ind. Daniel Adongo has never played a down of American football, has watched only a few games on television and he tends to dget with his helmet. Somehow, the Indianapolis Colts found this muscle-bound 6-foot5, 257-pound athlete on the rugby elds of Africa and decided to give him a shot at making an NFL roster. Just take your steps and be patient, Adongo said. The biggest thing is to be patient with myself and allow myself to have a good learning curve and build myself up. Three are plenty of things the 23-year-old Kenyan must gure out now that hes working out with his new teammates at training camp. Hes still learning how to get around town and around campus. Hes still getting used to the sen-

sation of a helmet and pads. And, of course, hes still learning what hes supposed to do. Teammates are convinced Adongo will be a quick learner, though those who have made the transition from overseas star to American contributor know it
wont be easy. I was thinking back to when I came over for the rst time to play high school football, and that was a big thing, said Indys most recent rst-round draft pick Bjoern Werner, who grew up in Germany. Now hes coming over, hes here for two days and now hes going to experience an NFL camp right away. Thats going to be tough, but he has teammates so hopefully everybody can help him out. There is little doubt Adongo can run and hit. But the Colts are still trying to gure out where he ts best and how long, or successful, the conversion might take. Adongo believes the move to linebacker is the most logical place to start given the combination of size, speed and aggression required to excel in rugby. If that doesnt work out, maybe hell get a chance at defensive end or tight end or fullback. son, Allen saved a touchdown by running down Darion Conner when it looked like the New Orleans linebacker only had Troy Aikman to beat down the sideline. Most of the rest of his career was dened by power rst as a tackle, where the Cowboys gured he would be a mainstay, and ultimately as a guard. True to his personality as a player, Allen retired to a quiet life in Northern California, with a wife and three kids.

From page 1B She was one of the biggest reasons Ill be up there, and I know shell be looking down on me, Allen said. The soft side of Allen isnt a familiar one to former teammates and opponents. This is a man who silently bench-pressed 700 pounds absurd, says former teammate Daryl Johnston in the Cowboys locker room while players screamed and mobbed him. This was a player who made notorious trash-talker John Randle of Minnesota keep to himself when he faced the Cowboys, for fear of making Allen mad. He never said nothin, said Nate Newton, one of Allens mentors on Dallas offensive line. Every now and then youd hear him utter a cuss word or hear him laugh that old funny laugh he had. Other than that Newton said, trailing off. Allen just played, which is how Scalercio discovered him at Butte College. Thats the junior college where the lineman landed after attending four high schools in part because his mom moved him around to keep him
away from gangs. Then an assistant for Sonoma, Scalercio was recruiting another player when he saw Allen throw an opponent to the ground for the rst time. Allen ended up tiny Sonoma, a Division II school, because his academic progress wasnt fast enough to get him to Division I, where he probably belonged. He was out of football and living in Los Angeles when Scalercio sent some of his LA-area players looking for him. They tracked him down on a basketball court, the same place Sonoma coach Tim Walsh took Allen when he showed up on campus. Walsh wanted to see the 6-foot-3 Allen lift his 320pound frame for a dunk.
You could have heard a pin drop when he slammed the ball, Scalercio said. It was like in the movies where it just goes tick, tick, tick, tick and stops. The Cowboys were coming off consecutive Super Bowl wins when they drafted Allen in the middle of the second round in 1994. He was surrounded by Pro Bowl offensive linemen but didnt take long to get noticed. Late in his rookie sea-
little wiggle room when they picked up Bell in the second round in April. Bell is younger, taller (6-2) and more versatile than either of the two players hes competing again. In addition to leading the nation with 383 carries last fall at Michigan State, he also caught 32 passes. After spending most of the last four years sending Mendenhall on the eld on rst and second down and bringing him out in true passing situations, Bell gives the Steelers a well-rounded option. One that is humble but well aware of the expectations. Im just going to compete, Bell said. Ive been competing from day one. Just make those other guys better, make the other running backs better, and at the same time theyre going to make me better. Im going
to help this team the best that I can and get a Super Bowl. Bell played at around 245 pounds during his nal year at Michigan State but arrived at Saint Vincent College more than a dozen pounds lighter. His height has him resemble something more akin to a safety than a feature back and theres more than a little bit of tenacity beneath his shoulder pads. Each year, in full gear includes a back on backers drill that pits a running back and a linebacker against each other designed to simulate what happens when a back is required to pick up a blitz. On Monday, Bell found himself lined up against rst-round pick Jarvis Jones. Four times Jones hurtled his 245-pound frame at Bell. The fact they fought to a draw didnt go unnoticed.

NEW YORK Major League Baseball has told the union which players it intends to suspend in its drug investigation and which ones will receive lengthier penalties for their roles in the Biogenesis case, two people familiar with the talks told The Associated Press. The sides are trying to reach as many agreements as possible that would avoid grievance hearings, and talks could push back an announcement until Friday. The meeting between MLB and the union on Tuesday, rst reported by the New York Daily News, signaled the nal stretch of talks. MLB hopes to announce the penalties for all players involved at the same time, both people said, speaking on condition of anonymity because no announcements were authorized. Three-time MVP Alex Rodriguez of the New York Yankees stands to receive the longest suspension. The stiffer penalties for some players are tied to other alleged violations, including not being truthful to MLB investigators.

IN BRIEF
Home prices surge in May

U.S. home prices jumped 12.2 percent in May compared with a year ago, the biggest annual gain since March 2006. The increase shows the housing recovery is strengthening. The Standard & Poors/Case-Shiller 20-city home price index released Tuesday also surged 2.4 percent in May from April. The month-overmonth gain nearly matched the 2.6 percent increase in April from March the highest on record. Home values are rising as more people are bidding on a scarce supply of houses for sale. Steady price increases, along with stable job gains and historically low mortgage rates, have in turn encouraged more Americans to buy homes. Higher home prices help the economy in several ways. They encourage more sellers to put their homes on the market, boosting supply and sustaining the housing recovery. And they make homeowners feel wealthier, encouraging consumers to spend more.
Area jobless rate dips again, still highest in Pa.

For the fth consecutive month the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Metropolitan Area has fallen. According to data released Tuesday by the state department of Labor and Industry, regional unemployment fell in June to 9.2 percent, the lowest its been since April 2012. Even with the fall of the unemployment rate, June marked the 39th consecutive month that this region, which includes the counties of Lackawanna, Luzerne and Wyoming, had the highest rate in the state. Along with Johnstown, which had an unemployment rate of 8.8 percent, the Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre metro was the only one in the state with a rate above 8.1 percent. While the local rate dipped from May to June, the state and national rates were unchanged. Pennsylvanias rate remained at 7.5 percent while the U.S. rate was 7.6 percent. Over the past year, the metropolitan statistical areas rate decreased three-tenths of a point, Pennsylvanias rate dropped by half a percentage point, and the U.S. rate fell sixtenths of a point. A closer look at the monthly data report shows this regions seasonally adjusted employment increased by 500 from May to 259,500, while the labor force rose by 200 to 285,700. Seasonally adjusted unemployment decreased by 200 to 26,200. When broken down into sectors and supersectors, the region showed: Seasonal gains occurred in mining, logging and construction and leisure and hospitality. Both supersectors were up over the month while leisure and hospitality saw a signicant increase since June 2012, up 1,000, setting a new record high level of 24,900 jobs. Durable goods manufacturing had the largest overthe-year decline for a single sector, down 600 jobs. The largest declines since May were in educational services and government, though these are expected as classrooms emptied for the summer in the regions schools, colleges and universities. Trade, transportation, and utilities, and professional and business services both declined over the month, however, they each saw sig-

Sprint feels pain of Nextel close,widens 2Q loss

Chrysler revenue, sales rise in 2Q
PETER SVENSSON
Chrysler Groups sales picked up in the second quarter thanks to strong U.S. demand for trucks and SUVs, but the company still cut its full-year sales and prot targets after a slower than expected start to the year. Chrysler said Tuesday its net income rose 16 percent to $507 million in the April-June period from $436 million a year ago. It was Chryslers eighth consecutive quarterly prot. Chrysler sold 643,000 vehicles worldwide in the second quarter, up 10 percent from a year ago. Sales were also up 10 percent in the U.S., where Chrysler sells 75 percent of its vehicles. Chryslers U.S. sales rose faster than the industry average of 8 percent in the second quarter.
Pfizer sees spike in net income
Pzers second-quarter net income more than quadrupled, helped by the sale of its animal health business. The worlds second-largest drugmaker beat Wall Streets earnings expectations, though revenue continued to decline as patents expire on drugs that had once been blockbusters for the company. When drug patents expire, cheaper generic versions ood the market, and most patients quickly switch to them. The biggest impact for Pzer has been on its cholesterol ghter Lipitor, which was the worlds best-selling drug for nearly a decade until it lost exclusivity in the U.S. in 2011 and in much of Europe last year.
OVERLAND PARK, Kan. Sprint Corp., the ailing No. 3 of the U.S. wireless business, has had the surgery. Now its in for a trying recovery period. In the last few months, Sprint has sold a majority stake to Softbank Corp. of Japan, bought the failing Clearwire network and shut down its own Nextel service, which had dogged its results for years. Sprint is now racing to make up for lost time. With the help of Softbanks cash, its quadrupling its capital spending to make up for years of underinvestment in its network, which lags those of competitors in terms of data speed and coverage. Thats good for subscribers but not necessarily good for investors who are exasperated with the companys 23 consecutive quarters of losses. CEO Dan Hesse said Tuesday he expects Sprint to have a hard time gaining subscribers on its contractbased plans, which generate the most revenue, until next year, when the company res up new antennas on its cell towers and has phones

that can take advantage of them. Sprints second-quarter results, reported Tuesday, were hampered by the shutdown of the Nextel network, which it bought in 2005. It was popular for its push-to-talk feature, which let phones work like walkie-talkies. The service, however, wasnt compatible with Sprint
phones and didnt support wireless broadband, which is necessary for smartphones. The cost of running two incompatible networks was a big part of the reason Sprint hemorrhaged money for years. The quarter was ugly, but no worse than expected, said Kevin Smithen at Macquarie Capital.
Sprint lost more than 2 million wireless customers in the quarter, most of which were on Nextel. Sprint managed to convince only 34 percent of the 1.3 million departing Nextel subscribers to sign up for Sprint service, a lower gure than some analysts expected, given Sprints past success with conversions. Sprint gained 412,000 subscribers by buying U.S. Cellular coverage areas in Chicago and parts on the Midwest in May. Separately, it bought out the minority shareholders of Clearwire Corp., a wireless network operator of which Sprint already owned a majority. That acquisition closed after the end of the quarter. Sprints net loss grew to $1.6 billion, or 53 cents per share. It lost $1.4 billion, or 46 cents per share, a year ago. Revenue rose to $8.88 billion from $8.84 billion thanks to the U.S. Cellular acquisition. SoftBank paid $21.6 billion for the Sprint stake. Shareholders got $7.65 per share. Sprint had 53.6 million subscribers by Junes end, down from 55.2 million at the end of March.

panned that idea, at least initially, by sending shares of Health Management plunging Tuesday after the deal was announced. Community Health, based in Franklin, Tenn., which operates area hospitals including Wilkes-Barre General, First Hospital in Kingston, Moses Taylor in Scranton and Tyler Memorial near Tunkhannock, said it will pay a combination of cash and stock valued at $13.78 for each HMA share. Community also could make an additional contingent value right payment of up to $1 per share depending on how the

federal investigations play out. Naples, Fla.-based Health Management, also known as HMA, said Tuesday it has received a fresh round of subpoenas from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Ofce of the Inspector General, regarding physician relationships and some emergency room operations. Community Health said its deal totals $3.9 billion, or $7.6 billion counting assumed debt. The board members of both companies have approved the deal, but regulators and HMA stockholders still have to clear it.

Sherry Emershaw picks herbs from the garden she planted on the grounds of the Nathan Denison House.

Herb your enthusiasm

TL: Do you have experience with herbs? SE: I have my own garden; I read a lot on gardening. Ive been a gardener my whole life. TL: Did you select herbs that colonists would have grown? SE: I do like herbs that would have been common at the time. A few there are for cooking but also for medicinal purposes. We do have lavender. That would be used in soap and for different things like sachets. TL: Do you have recipes for each herb? SE: I use herbs from my own herb garden for cooking all the time. For the herb garden, I found ones I use when I cook. Lambs ear would be more for medicinal purposes. Basil, its very popular. People make pesto with it. They use it in a lot of Italian cooking. My favorite is a fresh tomato from your garden with salt and pepper, fresh basil and mozzarella. Rosemary I use with chicken or sh. Tarragon, in special oils. I use it for a wonderful fresh green-bean recipe that calls for tarragon. When you use your fresh herbs, food tastes so much better. Sage I use that on Thanksgiving for the turkey. I have a wonderful recipe for sweet potatoes (with sage). Thyme, a lot of Italian dishes its used in. Mint garnishes a lot of teas. Dill, pickling and preserving. TL: Do they all have medicinal purposes? SE: Every one of them. Sage avors food, its a tooth whitener, and its brewed into an ale to facilitate baby delivery.
A basket full of herbs picked at the Denison House herb garden might include greens such as basil, sage or mint, or herbs with pops of color, such as lavender.

When Sherry Emershaw of Franklin Township began volunteering at the Denison House in Forty Fort in April, she was eager to assist. Besides helping to give tours of the historic, 18th-century home, she wanted to put her gardening experience to work. So after the subject of an herb garden came up at a meeting of the Denison Advocates, the volunteer group that operates the tours, she expanded on the smaller herb garden that was planted last year. Prior to that, the house had not had an herb garden for a decade or so, said Bob Mischak, vice president and nancial manager of the volunteer group. So Emershaw planted rosemary, thyme, basil, sage, mint, lavender and French tarragon. Some dill and lambs ear also claim some real estate. Emershaw, who works in nancial services, talked with The Times Leader about the garden and some good uses for its bounty. TL: When did you plant the herb garden at the Denison House? SE: I planted at the very beginning of May. There was a very tiny herb garden planted last year, but I expanded on it. TL: What made you decide to plant the herbs? SE: We had talked about (the herb garden) at one of our meetings. It was overgrown and needed a little TLC. I added the brick to just try to set it off a little bit and to protect it when theyre taking care of the yard. I added mulch.
Fire up summer with a trio of salsas

ALISON LADMAN
Associated Press
A lot of the more scenty (herbs), you would have strewn on your oor (in colonial days) as an air freshener. Basil is an aid in indigestion. An oil from the leaves alleviates sore muscles and is an insect repellent. Mint, chew on the leaves for heartburn. Gargle water with crushed leaves for sore throat. (Colonists) put them in boiled milk to keep it from curdling. Put it in tea to calm your nerves. TL: Do you plan to plant anything else at the Denison House? SE: I would like to, off to the side (of the house). I would like to make a bigger garden thats more planned out.
Who says salsa has to be made from tomatoes? Or dumped unceremoniously from a jar? With all of summers bounty, plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables make fantastic salsas. Scoop them up with chips or crackers, or add them to sandwiches, salads, burgers and tacos. We came up with three simple salsas, but they are easily tweaked to whatever is fresh or happens to be in your refrigerator. Switch out the apples for peaches or plums, even chopped strawberries. Dont like dill? Opt for basil or tarragon.

One of the many benets of the American Culinary Federation is the opportunity for Chef John to meet and make contact with other chefs through- Rismondo out the United States. They get to exchange a lot of ideas and information. One of the contacts he made is a favorite of mine. His name is Paul, and he is from Hawaii. At Vanderlyns, we love serving fresh sh of many varieties. Many guests have enjoyed barramundi, halibut, mahi mahi and Chilean sea bass, just to name a few. As I mentioned in a previous article, I love sh, but I dont like it to smell or taste like sh. Paul from Hawaii can tell Chef what is currently swimming, how it is caught (line or net), the time it was caught and within how many hours it will arrive at Vanderlyns. It doesnt get much better than that. Todays feature is a wonderful sh from Hawaii called Monchong. It is a thicker llet like sea bass, but the texture is slightly rmer. I would say it is between sea bass and swordsh, but light and meaty. Chef has complemented it with shrimp and a sweet teriyaki glaze over rice, giving it a bit of a Polynesian air. If you havent had the opportunity to visit our beautiful 50th state, join us at Vanderlyns and allow Chef John to take your taste buds on a culinary journey there. If you are like me and prefer someone else to do the cooking, be sure to join us, as we will offer the Hawaiian Monchong at Vanderlyns Restaurant beginning tomorrow during dinner service. For reservations or additional features call Vanderlyns at 283-6260. Our website is www.vanderlyns.com. HAWAIIAN MONCHONG Yield: 1 serving Ingredients 8 ounce Monchong llet 4 ounces shrimp, peeled and deveined, tail off 1 ounce claried butter or olive oil 1 ounce shallots, sliced 3 ounces teriyaki sauce parsley, chopped, to taste salt and black pepper, to taste Method of preparation: 1.

Place llet on baking pan and nish cooking until an internal temperature of 135 F is achieved on an instant-read thermometer. Reserve for plating. 3. Season shrimp. Saut with shallots for 30-45 seconds, deglaze with teriyaki sauce and reduce slightly. Reserve for plating. 4. Place Monchong on warm plate. Top with sauted shrimp and drizzle with teriyaki sauce. 5. Accompany with your favorite starch and enjoy.

PUZZLES
Young couples intimacy is very risky without the use of birth control
Dear Abby: My girlfriend, Allison, and I have been in a relationship for two years. We met in our sophomore year of high school and have been dating ever since. We have an incredible relationship. We were virgins when we started dating, but decided we would lose our virginity to each other. We have always used birth control pills and condoms to ensure we wouldnt be having any children. Earlier this month we had a pregnancy scare. Allison had failed to tell me she stopped taking her birth control pills three months ago. My trust was broken, but most of all I
DEAR ABBY
ADVICE
was scared she might be pregnant. It turned out she wasnt, but because of the incident I have been skeptical about making love to her. She says this frustrates her, but I have told her the reason I wont is because she refuses to take the pill. Abby, we are way too young to have a child and are totally unprepared. Id still like to be intimate with Allison, but Im afraid. What should I do? Betrayed in Bangor, Maine Dear Betrayed: You appear to be an intelligent and responsible
young man. The first thing you should do is thank your higher power that there wasnt an accident and your girlfriend didnt become pregnant. The next thing you should do is find out why Allison would stop taking her birth control pills without telling you. If there was a medical reason, there are other methods she could have used in their place. (If you are planning to attend college, she may have been thinking a baby would anchor you to her.) And last, recognize that if you resume having sex with her which I emphatically DONT recommend that you wont be able to trust her as far as birth control is concerned, and you will be the one totally responsible for preventing a pregnancy.
The saying, Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on ME, applies here. Dear Abby: I would like your opinion on the relatively new craze of trashing the wedding dress. I think its a deplorable waste. Im sorry I kept mine and watched it yellow over the years, but I havent heard a reasonable argument for destroying the gown. Some women say if they have a daughter, she wouldnt want a dated dress. But if the dress is currently in style, Im sure some less fortunate girl would love to have it. Rather than trash it, I say why not donate the dress or sell it and send the money to a womans charity? Sensible in the Sunshine State
Dear Sensible: The only rational reason I can think of for trashing a wedding dress would be if the marriage was a disaster and the bride was doing it as a way of venting her anger. I cant speak for all young women, but I am willing to bet that many would be thrilled to wear the gown their mother wore. And for those who arent interested or cant fit into it, your idea of recycling is compassionate, generous and sensible.

UNIVERSAL SUDOKU
CRYPTOQUOTE
HOROSCOPE
BY HOLIDAY MATHIS
ARIES (March 21-April 19). The 10 minutes you usually spend prioritizing your tasks may not be enough today. Take 30 minutes instead and organize the next three days all at once. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The machine of procrastination looks for a distraction to keep its cogs whirring. Whats really going on is that theres something unknown about your important task that youre afraid of. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Being interesting isnt a problem for you because you are so interested in life, and you follow your curiosity, so you always have something to contribute. Youll lean on this trait today. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Did you hear about the teacher who wore the same outfit for his yearbook photo for 40 years in a row? Similarly, youll be sticking to a formula that works and finding success. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). To improve the way things are in your neighborhood, you first have to improve the people who live there, starting with you. Today is the golden moment for this whatever you do will catch on. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You have to bring your best self to the tasks of the day there is no other choice the challenge of the task demands it. Tonight, youll need your peace and rest. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Youll wonder if your heartstrings got tied up in your purse strings. Someone yanks on the former and the latter come flying open. Where the need is sincere, you are happy to give. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). If you think twice, you will either come up with something better to say, or something worse, which could also be better, depending on the context of the situation. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Dont be too proud about which work you take on. Consider what Margaret Cho said: The incognito of lower class employment is an effective cloak for any dagger one might wish to hide. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Youll wonder if the task in front of you is worth doing well. If you have a long list and a short amount of time, speed through each item with a good enough attitude. The cumulative effect will be impressive. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). According to the old Jewish proverb, sweet people get eaten up and bitter ones get spat out. You prefer to stay in between and no one can guess your recipe for success these days. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You dont have to be in school to learn. Youll be processing recently gathered facts and connecting them to understand how the world works. Extra credit: Youll dream about how it should work, too. TODAYS BIRTHDAY (July 31). Youll take relaxation to the art form level and your style brings all the right kind of attention. Bonus: Youll feel young and carefree. Of course, its the hard work in between that makes it possible. August, December and May are moneymaking times. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 29, 5, 25 and 19.
