Pa. Legislature paid $4.2Mto 258 aides in buyouts
MARK SCOLFORO
Associated Press
HARRISBURG The
Pennsylvania Legislature
paid 258 of its employees
more than $4.2 million to
retire or quit in the past
two years in buyouts that
in many cases gave people
with decades of service an
extra incentive to leave and
begin collecting substantial
pensions.
The voluntary programs
began in the Senate and
were designed to cut per-
sonnel costs into the future.
The average recipient col-
lected more than $16,000,
and nine people received
$40,000 apiece. The Senate
clerks ofce said its total
number of employees fell
from 902 in November
2011, when buyouts were
offered, to 819 as of August.
That chambers payroll
shrank more than $4 mil-
lion.
Issues of legislative com-
pensation and payouts are
a politically sensitive issue
in Pennsylvania, where
the legislative workforce
is among the nations larg-
est. Lawmakers generated
a strong backlash from the
public for voting to raise
their own pay in 2005,
followed by the so-called
Bonusgate scandal involving
payments of state money to
staffers who worked on cam-
paigns.
Information about the
programs was obtained
by The Associated Press
through the states Right-to-
Know Law, including previ-
ously undisclosed details
about the House buyouts
late last year.
In the House, 78
Democratic employees, 99
Republican employees and
34 people who work for the
bipartisan management arm
took advantage of the pro-
gram, and their ranks includ-
ed lawyers, researchers, mes-
sengers and custodians.
The House permitted any-
one with at least one year of
service to participate, and
25 people with three years
or less took the offer.
The Senate limited par-
ticipants to those who were
at or near retirement age or
pension eligibility, and 47
took advantage.
Both chambers credited
employees for their work
in other branches of state
government, giving them
$1,000 or a weeks pay for
each year of service. The
Senate capped payouts
at $40,000; the House,
$25,000.
In the House Republican
caucus alone, 67 employ-
ees who participated in the
program also cashed out
leave, at an additional cost
of about $800,000. The 34
bipartisan workers in the
House who took the buyout
all cashed out leave, collect-
ing $206,000.
There are lots of ways
they can save money over
there without having to
spend more money, said
Tim Potts, a former House
Democratic aide who has
campaigned to improve
the Legislatures ethics and
operations. They should be
reducing the staff in the rst
place.
That was the main goal
of the program, said Drew
Crompton, a high-ranking
Senate aide who helped
develop and administer the
program. He said it was
designed after studying
other buyouts and approved
in a vote by a committee of
senior senators.
This was not some sort
of wildgiveaway, Crompton
said. This was a calculated
effort in order to shrink the
size of the Senate which,
quite frankly, has worked
out tremendously well. We
are incredibly leaner than
we were seven years ago. If
it takes investment for that
to happen, so be it.
The Senate offered the
buyouts about six months
after a series on the
Legislatures staff by the
AP and the Pennsylvania
Associated Press
Managing Editors showed
Pennsylvania employed
about one of every 11 state
legislative employees in the
nation, in a state that has
about 4 percent of the coun-
trys population.
The buyouts may have
increased the cost of the
state pension system by
encouraging people to start
collecting before they oth-
erwise may have, said Eric
Epstein, a frequent critic of
legislative operations. The
cost of the state pension
plan is a growing concern
for state policymakers, and
Gov. Tom Corbett has been
pushing for changes in the
face of increasing obliga-
tions to taxpayers.
I dont think anybody
in their right mind would
argue that the efciency
of the Legislature has
increased since these folks
were separated from their
employment, Epstein said.
You dont need to be trim-
ming a couple of branches
you need to reduce the
size of the forest.
Bill Patton, a spokesman
for the House Democrats,
said the decision to offer
buyouts was made by
Minority Leader Frank
Dermody, D-Allegheny,
after consulting with senior
caucus leaders as part of a
longer-term plan to reduce
employee costs. He said the
House Democrats have shed
more than 20 percent of
their workforce since 2009.
We understand that
the Legislature is going to
continue to exist and will
always need staff people, but
through this planning were
able to control the future
cost increases, Patton said.
House Republican spokes-
man Steve Miskin said the
buyouts were approved by
senior leaders after consult-
ing with members. Through
a spokesman, the Senate
Democratic leadership
declined to comment.

information on a crime for help-
ing former county judges Mark
A. Ciavarella Jr. and Michael
T. Conahan try to obscure the
source of $2.8 million, which
Mericle and attorney Robert
Powell paid the pair.
The disgraced ex-judges are
serving long prison sentences
for their roles in sentencing
juvenile defendants to serve
time in two private deten-
tion centers built by Mericle
Construction. Powell pleaded
guilty in July 2009 to paying the
judges $772,500 in kickbacks
and helping them conceal the
source of $2.1 million more they
received from Mericle as nd-
ers fees for helping him obtain
construction contracts. Powell
was sentenced in November
2011 to 18 months in prison.
Assistant U.S. Attorney
Gordon Zubrod in 2009 said
there was no evidence Mericle
knew about the kickbacks.
Rather, he got himself into trou-
ble for not being honest with
investigators about nders
fees, which are an otherwise
legitimate and common transac-
tion in the real estate business,
Zubrod explained.
With such a past, Curran
suggested that for Wyoming
Seminary to accept Mericles
donations may be ethical in that
it benets students, but that
honoring Mericle in a conspicu-
ous way may not.
The message that can send is
that a certain amount of money
can mean all is good, and Im
not OK with that especially
for an organization that serves
children, Curran said.
In a statement issued by
Wyoming Seminary Board of
Trustees Chairman Richard
Goldberg last week, the initial
choice of Mericle Field was
described as a gesture to honor
a family for its sincere support
over a 20-year period, but the
school also called it a regret-
table situation and apologized
for any offense.
Mericle once served on the
the schools board of trustees,
previously contributed to other
projects, and his daughter grad-
uated from the school earlier
this year.
I certainly have some sym-
pathy for the people at Sem,
Curran said of the school. They
want to serve their students
well and they want to acknowl-
edge the generosity of someone
who has done something terri-
bly wrong and yet has been very
generous to them.
Other donations
Wyoming Seminary is far
from the only organization
associated with youths that he
has chosen to assist.
Land and construction dona-
tion worth $2 million were pro-
vided by Mericle and his family
to create a Junior Achievement
village in Pittston Township,
where youths have the chance
to spend the day learning what
its like to operate a business.
Since it opened in 2007, more
than 25,000 area students have
participated in programs there.
Junior Achievement Director
Melissa Turlip said the build-
ing would not have been built
without the Mericle donation.
The program would exist
only in classrooms and stu-
dents would not be able to
come to a facility to get the
real experience of entrepre-
neurship, nancial literacy and
work readiness, Turlip said.
At the Wilkes-Barre Family
YMCA, Executive Director Jim
Thomas said Mericles associa-
tion started early.
He was a Y Kid, Thomas
said. And he never left, later
serving on our board and as a
volunteer starting in the mid-
1990s.
That association really
paid off, Thomas said, when
Mericle stepped in with money
and expertise after a 1998 capi-
tal campaign stalled.
We were looking for things
to cut out, Thomas said. We
were struggling with a deci-
sion to choose between the
new pool or the new gym.
Rob stepped in with his team
at Mericle Development and
re-did our plans to make them
more cost-effective. We came
in under budget.
Flood work noted
Mericles post-plea largess
has not been limited to youth
and recreation activities, nor
has it always been as controver-
sial as the Wyoming Seminary
project.
In September 2011, Mericles
intervention was credited with
preventing disaster as the
swollen Susquehanna River
threatened to ood the West
Side.
Jim Brozena, then executive
director of the Luzerne County
Flood Protection Authority
and the former county engi-
neer, said Mericle called him
when the river was rising to
record levels to ask what he
could do to help. Mericle, his
employees and trucks brought
tons of material to the levee in
Forty Fort where several situa-
tions occurred that threatened
the integrity of the dike sys-
tem.
At the end of the day,
because of his actions and the
actions of several others, a pos-
itive outcome was effected,
Brozena said. The repairs
made at that time made a huge
difference in the outcome.
But Mericles money has
not always found its way into
charitable hands by choice in
recent years.
Part of his 2009 plea agree-
ment was to allocate $2.15
million to a fund to benet
children. The cash was for-
warded to the Pennsylvania
Commission on Crime and
Delinquency, which selected
17 projects that would benet,
and Mericle had no input in
the choice of projects.
Admission, forgiveness
Monsignor Joseph Kelly,
executive director of Catholic
Social Services an agency
that shared in the court-man-
dated largess said part of
the healing process and the
rehabilitation of any offender
is forgiveness. That is especial-
ly true, he said, when there has
been an admission of guilt, as
with Mericle.
Heres a man who has
admitted he did wrong, Kelly
said. We as a community need
to accept the fact that he is ask-
ing for forgiveness. And dont
we have a responsibility to
accept that and forgive?
But in the Mericle case,
there seems to be so much
anger attached, he said.
Scripture tells us we should
take a look at the demon in our
own eye before we look at the
splinter in our neighbors eye,
Kelly said. Mercy and forgive-
ness go a lot further to let us be
who we are called to be.
For Misericordias Curran,
that $2.15 million is a crucial
point, as is a $17.75 million
settlement Mericle reached
with about 1,600 juveniles who
claimed they were wrongly
incarcerated by the corrupt
judges at the facilities he built.
If Mericle had resisted those
paybacks and was still making
donations using money he was
obliged to pay back, Curran
said that would be unethical.
Hes made restitution.
The money he has donated
to Wyoming Seminary is not
money that was supposed to
be going somewhere else as
restitution for what hes done,
Curran said.
Future in question
Mericles fate and wheth-
er he can inuence it through
charitable donations
remains unclear.
The developer remains at
liberty. He was expected to
testify in the corruption case
of former state Sen. Raphael
Musto, which was scheduled
for November but delayed
when defense attorneys argued
the octogenarian former law-
maker was too ill to participate
in his defense.
The terms of Mericles like-
ly punishment also remain
unclear.
At the time of his 2009 plea,
it was reported that his charge
carries a maximum sentence of
three years in prison, but that
Mericle likely faced no more
than four to 10 months behind
bars based on federal sentenc-
ing guidelines, and that he
could be eligible for probation
if he continued to cooperate
with prosecutors.
In January 2011, federal
prosecutors led an amend-
ment to the plea agreement
that would increase the sen-
tencing guideline to 12 to
18 months in prison. The
move was based on Mericle
obstructing or impeding the
administration of justice.
Guideline changes must be
approved by a judge, who is
not bound by them.
Peter J. Henning, a professor
at Wayne State University Law
School, is the author of The
Prosecution and Defense of
Public Corruption: The Law &
Legal Strategies. In February,
Henning wrote an article
The Challenge of Sentencing
White-Collar Defendants
that asks whether white-collar
defendants are treated more
favorably than other criminals
when it comes to sentencing.
He wrote that one method
frequently used in white-collar
cases involves letter-writing
campaigns to point out the
many positive attributes of the
defendants. He said the empha-
sis is usually on charitable con-
tributions and close family ties
to show that a reduced punish-
ment reects the sentencing
factor to provide just punish-
ment for the offense.
Henning cited one case in
which a district judge noted
that more than 100 letters
had been sent attesting to the
defendants humble begin-
nings and his many community
and charitable activities, both
before and after the charges in
this case.
Among the reasons for giv-
ing a short sentence was evi-
dence of the defendants strong
community and family involve-
ment, and business expertise
that included starting a new
company achieving growing
success, Henning wrote.
However, Henning said the
appeals court rejected those
grounds as insufcient for
such a signicant departure
from the recommended guide-
lines.
It was troubled by the dis-
trict judges reference to his
work as a reason for giving
a lighter sentence, rejecting
the position that a defendant
should be sentenced lightly
on the asserted ground that
they offer more to society
than those who do not possess
such knowledge and skill,
Henning wrote. There is no
simple answer to what is the
appropriate sentence for any
defendant, and especially for
those who commit business
crimes.
Heidi Havens, spokeswom-
an for U.S. Attorney Peter J.
Smith, said in 2011 that she
could not comment on why the
change was sought. On Friday,
Havens said she could not
comment on what sentencing
guidelines Mericle may face
due to the fact that this is a
still-pending criminal case.
Havens did offer a generic
statement on what federal
judges must take into con-
sideration when sentencing
defendants.
Under the federal sentenc-
ing guidelines, the judge is
required to consider and weigh
a number of factors, including
the nature, circumstances and
seriousness of the offense; the
history and characteristics of
the defendant; and the need
to punish the defendant, pro-
tect the public and provide for
the defendants educational,
vocational and medical needs,
Havens said.
A review of media coverage
of other white-collar sentenc-
ings turns up frequent referenc-
es to defendants lawyers invok-
ing charitable deeds in hopes
of earning their clients reduced
sentences. How much impact
such arguments hold, in combi-
nation with the unique factors
of each case, is another matter.
Other cases
According to The
Associated Press, an attorney
for Grammy-winning singer
Lauryn Hill sought probation
in her $1 million tax-evasion
case earlier this year, argu-
ing Hills charitable works,
her family circumstances and
the fact that the mother of six
paid back the taxes she owed
should merit consideration. In
May, a federal judge sentenced
Hill to three months in prison.
She had faced up to three years
in prison.
Also in May, according to the
AP, Connecticut hedge fund
founder Anthony Chiasson was
sentenced to 6-1/2 years in pris-
on for his role in a $70 million
insider-trading scandal, over
the argument of his lawyers that
the 39-year-old had made signif-
icant charitable contributions.
He had faced a decade behind
bars.
If the history and char-
acteristics of the defendant
to be considered by a judge
may include legitimate chari-
table donations, Misericordias
Curran suggested there is noth-
ing unethical about Mericle
continuing to give to worthy
causes, as he has done, with
that in mind.
Mericles personal motiva-
tions are still left unsaid.
Weve taken an across-the-
board position that because
of our situation, we arent
commenting, attorney Kim
Borland said on behalf of his
client Friday afternoon.
From page 1A
Donations
spending plans are about to run
out, threats are made, compro-
mises are reached and a shut-
down is averted.
If a shutdown does happen, it
would be the rst time in nearly
two decades when a budget
battle between President Bill
Clinton, a Democrat, and the
Republican-controlled Congress
led to much of the federal gov-
ernment being closed for sev-
eral days in late 1995 and early
1996.
As is often the case when
the branches are split between
parties, there are differences
on spending priorities. Since
1976, there have been 17 gov-
ernment shutdowns, said
Timothy F. Kearney, chairman
of the Department of Business
at Misericordia University in
Dallas Township. Clearly, in
both cases each party believes
that they have the public on
their side and will win points
politically.
Kearney said recent ghts
over the debt ceiling, which
led to sequestration earlier this
year, have made major prog-
ress in bringing the decit back
under some sort of control.
With so many federal ofces
located in the region and pro-
grams that rely on federal funds
a government shutdown
could send ripples throughout
the county. While each depart-
ment and agency would deter-
mine its own policies and make
decisions about how to operate,
some decisions have already
been made as to how the shut-
down will be carried out.
Largest employer
The regions largest employer,
the Tobyhanna Army Depot, is
unlikely to be impacted at rst.
We do not anticipate that
a government shutdown, if it
occurs, will have any immedi-
ate impact on Tobyhanna Army
Depot. The depot is funded
through Army Working Capital
Funding, as opposed to direct
appropriation. At present,
Working Capital Fund opera-
tions are exempt from shut-
down, said David Jadick, the
acting public affairs ofcer at
the depot.
Heres a look at the impact a
shutdown could have on some
sectors:
Social Security: While
checks for those currently
receiving Social Security ben-
ets would still be sent during
a shutdown, those applying for
new benets would see a delay.
Travel: Air trafc con-
trollers would not be taken off
duty so ights would continue
to operate as normal. Those
wishing to visit national parks,
national museums, national rec-
reation areas or the national zoo,
however, would be out of luck as
theyd all be forced to close. In
addition, passport requests may
go unprocessed.
Armed service members:
They would continue to serve
but would not be paid. For vet-
erans, benets could be delayed,
though VA hospitals should be
unaffected.
Financial: Banks would
remain open. The IRS will
also continue to operate, and if
youre in a bond buying mood,
you will continue to be able to.
When it comes to Wall Street,
however, the shutdown could
have a major impact.
Mail: The U.S. Postal
Service will keep operating so
mail will continue to be picked
up and delivered.
Federal loans: Need some
money for a mortgage on that
house from the federal govern-
ment? Sorry. Loan for your
small business? Sorry. Both are
impacted by the shutdown.
Courts: Its likely that
courts would remain open,
though cases could be delayed.
U.S. Sen. Bob Casey blasted
some in the Republican Party
for putting ideology ahead of
veterans the economy some
people in the Republican Party
are willing to put their ideology
ahead of everything.
Casey chided GOP leaders
and said they should get con-
trol of their party so we dont
lose control of the economy.
Though some are spewing
brimstone over the potential
shutdown, Kearney does not
believe an adverse effect to the
economy is a guaranteed out-
come.
While Washington budget
wrangling makes for good tele-
vision, a delay in increasing
the debt ceiling or a shutdown
is unlikely to be prolonged and
cause harm to the economy, he
said.
U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta,
R-Hazleton, voted to defund
Obamacare and tie it to the
spending plan but a shutdown
is not something he supports or
wants to see.
If we were to fail to keep the
government running, too many
people would be hurt, particu-
larly active duty members and
veterans of our military. I am
not willing to do that, Barletta
said. We cannot allow the
government to close its doors
because of a ght over a law
that doesnt work and most
Americans dont want. I urge
my colleagues in the Senate to
heed the calls from the people:
approve the funding of the gov-
ernment, agree with the public
that Obamacare is a bad deal,
and help us get the economy
back on track.

Shutdown
The Tobyhanna Army Depot in Monroe County is the largest employer in the region. A government shutdown would not
immediately impact the installation.
Aimee Dilger | The Times Leader
The Wilkes-Barre VA Medical Center would remain open despite a shutdown
of the federal government.
Postman

Aimee Dilger | The Times Leader
that House Republicans decid-
ed to back would assure routine
funding for government agen-
cies through Dec. 15.
The measure marked some-
thing of a reduction in demands
by House Republicans, who
passed legislation several days
ago that would permanently
strip the health care law of
money while providing funding
for the government.
It also contained signicant
concessions from a party that
long has criticized the health
care law for imposing numerous
government mandates on indus-
try, in some cases far exceeding
what Republicans were willing to
support in the past.
GOP aides said that under
the legislation headed toward
a vote, portions of the health
law that already have gone into
effect would remain unchanged.
That includes requirements for
insurance companies to guar-
antee coverage for pre-existing
conditions and to require chil-
dren to be covered on their par-
ents plans until age 26. It would
not change a part of the law that
reduces costs for seniors with
high prescription drug expens-
es.
Instead, the measure would
delay implementation of a
requirement for all individuals
to purchase coverage or face a
penalty, and of a separate feature
of the law that will create mar-
ketplaces where individuals can
shop for coverage from private
insurers.
The Senate rejected the most
recent House-passed anti-shut-
down bill on a party-line vote
of 54-44 Friday, insisting on a
straightforward continuation
in government funding without
health care-related add-ons.
That left the next step up
to the House with time to
avert a partial shutdown grow-
ing ever shorter.
For a moment at least,
the revised House proposal
papered over a simmering
dispute between the leader-
ship and tea party conserva-
tives who have been more
militant about abolishing the
health law that all Republicans
oppose.

ESSAY CONTEST
Dems may shift campaign focus
Gubernatorial candidates
sniping at GOP incumbent
PETER JACKSON
Associated Press
HARRISBURG
Theres smoke, but no
re yet, in Pennsylvanias
eight-way Democratic race
for governor.
So far, the would-be
nominees are aiming
their campaign vitriol
exclusively at Republican
incumbent Tom Corbett,
even though the real chal-
lenge for each of them is to
convince Democratic vot-
ers that he or she would
make the strongest candi-
date to take on Corbett in
2014.
Still, some notewor-
thy things are happening
publicly and behind the
scenes that will affect the
Democratic campaign and
ignite new debates as the
May 20 primary approach-
es.
One recent development
was state Treasurer Rob
McCords long-expected
conrmation of his candi-
dacy making him the
only statewide elected
ofcial in the race.
Perhaps more impor-
tant, McCords authority
over the disbursement of
state funds puts him in a
unique position to affect
certain executive actions,
such as his refusal earlier
this year to pay millions
of dollars to a company
the Corbett administra-
tion hired under a no-bid
contract to modernize and
manage state websites.
A lot of people are
talking about taking on
Tom Corbett, but Ive
been doing it since he was
elected, boasted McCord,
a former venture capitalist
who was elected treasurer
in his rst election cam-
paign in 2008 and re-elect-
ed last year.
Money is also a press-
ing concern for seri-
ous candidates facing
an eight-month primary
battle, although no one
knows how much is at
stake. Under state law, the
campaigns probably wont
have to begin publicly
reporting their contribu-
tions and expenditures
until January.
That rst campaign
nance report could be a
revealing test of the com-
parative strength of the
candidates. And in a wide-
open race in which union
endorsements are all the
more important, the bet-
ter-nanced campaigns
will be more attractive to
big cash donors and union
leaders weighing whom to
endorse among candidates
who share similar political
views.
Tom Wolf, a wealthy
York businessman and
former state revenue sec-
retary, has set the fundrais-
ing bar high by vowing to
sink at least $10 million
of his own money into the
primary campaign.
U.S. Rep. Allyson
Schwartz, a fth-term
lawmaker from the
Philadelphia area, has said
she began the campaign
with about $3 million left
over from her past cam-
paigns. A key supporter
predicted her fundraising
would be buoyed by con-
tacts she made through her
work on the Democratic
Congressional Campaign
Committee and support
from womens advocacy
groups.
Shes been a national
presence for a while, said
Philadelphia lawyer Mark
Aronchick, a prominent
Democratic Party fundrais-
er and Schwartz supporter.
Also, labor unions that
are a major source of cam-
paign cash for Democrats
are already taking sides.
Schwartz has endorse-
ments from the United
Mine Workers and the
Sheet Metal Workers
Union. The Pennsylvania
Conference of Teamsters
tapped McCord as its
favorite two days after he
announced his candidacy.
Former state environmen-
tal protection secretary
Katie McGinty is backed
by the Pittsburgh transit
workers union.
Among the major unions
still uncommitted is the
largest state employee
union, Council 13 of the
American Federation
of State, County and
Municipal Employees.
Its expected to issue an
endorsement by early
November, said its direc-
tor, David Fillman.
Weve got a lot at stake,
so we will probably be
pulling out all the stops,
he said.

MOUNT VERNON, Va.
George Washingtons
majestic estate overlook-
ing the Potomac River now
has an added attraction: a
state-of-the-art presiden-
tial library.
The grand opening
Friday of the Fred W.
Smith National Library
for the Study of George
Washington celebrated the
father of our country with
a festive crowd that includ-
ed both U.S. senators from
Virginia, the governor, per-
formances by country sing-
ers and couple Vince
Gill and Amy Grant, and a
keynote by Pulitzer Prize-
winning historian David
McCullough.
The library was
designed to add a scholarly
element to the understand-
ing of the rst president,
who had written in a let-
ter to a friend in 1797 that
he wanted a building on
his property to house his
papers.
If theres anybody who
deserves a presidential
library, its Washington,
said historian Stephen
Knott, professor of nation-
al security affairs at the
U.S. Naval War College
in Newport, R.I., who
has studied the Founding
Fathers. He was our great-
est president. This is 220
years overdue.
The Mount Vernon
Ladies Association, a pri-
vate group that has owned
and operated the estate
since 1858, raised $106
million in private funds
for the library over the last
three years. Philanthropist
Fred W. Smith, chairman
of the Donald W. Reynolds
Foundation, was a leader
of the effort. The founda-
tion contributed $38 mil-
lion for the library in 2010.
This new library
will help us to maintain
and advance George
Washingtons timeless rel-
evance in our fast-changing
world, said Ann Bookout,
regent of the Mount Vernon
Ladies Association.
More than 2 centuries later, George Washington fnally gets a library

MICHAEL J. MISHAK
Associated Press
MIAMI Emboldened
by the Supreme Court
decision that struck down
the heart of the Voting
Rights Act, a growing
number of Republican-
led states are moving
aggressively to tighten
voting rules. Lawsuits
by the Obama adminis-
tration and voting rights
activists say those efforts
disproportionately affect
minorities.
At least ve Southern
states, no longer required
to ask Washingtons per-
mission before changing
election procedures, are
adopting strict voter iden-
tication laws or toughen-
ing existing requirements.
Texas ofcials are bat-
tling the U.S. Justice
Department to put in
place a voter ID law that
a federal court has ruled
was discriminatory. In
North Carolina, the GOP-
controlled Legislature
scaled back early voting
and ended a pre-regis-
tration program for high
school students nearing
voting age.
Nowhere is the debate
more heated than in
Florida, where the chaotic
recount in the disputed
2000 presidential race
took place.
Florida election of-
cials are set to resume
an effort to remove non-
citizens from the states
voting rolls. A purge last
year ended in embarrass-
ment after hundreds of
American citizens, most
of whom were black or
Hispanic, were asked to
prove their citizenship or
risk losing their right to
vote.
Republican leaders
across the South say the
new measures are needed
to prevent voter fraud,
even though such crimes
are rare. Democrats and
civil rights groups say
the changes are political
attacks aimed at minori-
ties and students voting
groups that tend to lean
toward Democrats in
states with legacies of poll
taxes and literacy tests.
In North Carolina, for
example, a state board
of elections survey found
that more than 600,000
registered voters did not
have a state-issued ID, a
requirement to vote under
the states new law. Many
of those voters are young,
black, poor or elderly.
Were in the middle of
the biggest wave of voter
suppression since the
Voting Rights Act was
enacted, said Katherine
Culliton-Gonzlez, direc-
tor of voter protection for
the Advancement Project,
a Washington-based civil
rights group that has
undertaken legal challeng-
es in several states.
For ve decades, states
and localities with a his-
tory of discrimination
had to submit all election
laws, from new congres-
sional district maps to pre-
cinct locations and voting
hours, to federal lawyers
for approval. That prac-
tice ended in June when
the Supreme Court struck
down the provision in the
Voting Rights Act as out-
dated.
Voting rights groups said
recent actions by Southern
states highlight the need
for Congress to retool the
rejected sections of the
landmark 1965 law that
were credited with ensur-
ing ballot access to millions
of blacks, American Indians
and other minorities.
The administration is
using the remaining parts
of the law to bring court
cases.
When Attorney General
Eric Holder announced
a suit last month to place
Texas under federal super-
vision again, he said the
Justice Department would
not allow the high courts
decision to be interpreted
as open season for states
to pursue measures that
suppress voting rights.
Gov. Rick Scott, R-Fla.,
has defended the planned
voter purge, saying his
state has an obligation to
maintain the integrity of
the vote.
I care about your sacred
right to vote, he said.
Your sacred right to vote
should not be diluted by
somebody who does not
have the right to vote.
The effort has become
a campaign issue as the
governor seeks re-election
next year. Former Gov.
Charlie Crist, who is wide-
ly expected to challenge
Scott as a Democrat, has
called the move uncon-
scionable, and Democrats
have painted the action as
an attempt to rally conser-
vatives and disenfranchise
Democratic voters.

Tool of tourism
Both state and local
tourism ofcials have
programs that capitalize
on widespread interest
in Pennsylvanias foliage,
from websites to glossy
brochures promoting
travel itineraries that
take motorists past some
of the most picturesque
displays of autumnal
scenery.
Hall and her ofce
publish a pamphlet with
suggested foliage driving
tours in Luzerne County,
highlighting Dallas and
the Back Mountain, the
West Side, as well as
Mountain Top and White
Haven. It also directs
those looking for ashy
fall colors to recreation
areas, including Wilkes-
Barres River Common
park and the countys
many state parks.
The bureau focuses
its promotion efforts
on people within 200-
mile radius of Luzerne
County, or roughly a
four-hour drive, Hall
said. Their efforts place
particular emphasis on
the greater Philadelphia
area, including the use
of cable television ads, as
well as the Baltimore and
Washington, D.C. areas.
State ofcials, mean-
while, offer a weekly fall
foliage report online, as
well as their own lists of
must-see foliage hotspots,
from Lehigh Gorge State
Park to the Pine Creek
Valley, a Northern Tier
natural attraction often
dubbed the Pennsylvania
Grand Canyon.
VisitPA also offers
a customized Leaf
Peeper road-trip on its
website, consisting of a
four-day, three-night jour-
ney across Pennsylvanias
famed Route 6 along
the Northern Tier, said
Steven Kratz, director
of communications for
the state Department
of Community and
Economic Development,
which oversees tourism.
Local and state ofcials
could not say for sure
how much revenue foliage
generates, but it is an
impactful tourism attrac-
tion for several regions
of Pennsylvania, Kratz
said.
Peak foliage
Peak foliage this year
will be anywhere from
several days to a week
earlier than usual, said
Ed Dix, a state forester.
Many of the Northern
Tier counties will begin
to peak between Tuesday
and Oct. 10, while
Luzerne County and sur-
rounding areas will blaze
forth between Oct. 8 and
14.
Trees in the central
region, including most of
Luzerne County, were at
10 to 20 percent full color
as of Tuesday, when the
most recent state weekly
report was issued.
The weather over the
past couple of weeks has
been the dominant fac-
tor, Dix said, explaining
that bright days followed
by longer, cooler nights
speed up the natural pro-
cesses by which leaves
change color and drop
away.
Warmer fall weather
last year did push the
season back further, Dix
noted, with full color not
arriving in our region
until well into the second
week of October.
Photosynthesis, the
process by which trees
and plants turn energy
from the sun into food, is
enhanced on long, sunny
days, Dix said. It relies on
chlorophyll, a green pig-
ment that allows plants to
absorb light and turn car-
bon dioxide into sugars.
As the days grow short-
er and cooler, photosyn-
thesis slows down and
the declining amount of
nutrients produced are
absorbed by trees as they
prepare to go dormant for
the winter, Dix said.
As the chlorophyll
breaks down in some
leaves, yellow and orange
pigments, which were
already present, become
visible once the dominant
green hues disappear.
With other trees, differ-
ent chemical reactions
actually transform the
leaves from green into
red, purple and other
shades.
Effect of rain
Rain or lack thereof
can affect the process,
but Dix said he does not
believe this summers
dry weather was extreme
enough to alter the pace
of color change, never
approaching drought con-
ditions that could affect
the subterranean water
table from which trees
primarily draw moisture.
According to
AccuWeather, rainfall for
the Wyoming Valley area
is about 8.5 inches below
the average annual rain-
fall to date of 28.5 inches.
These trees are tough.
Theyve been there for 80
to 100 years in most of
our forests, and theyve
been through more severe
(dry spells) than this,
Dix said.

If birds could talk
JOE SYLVESTER
[email protected]
To photographer Ray Listanski, birds are
always talking.
And he lets them.
Then he shoots them. Their photos, that is.
He and photographer John Goldman, both
members of the Northeast Photography
Club, will show 16 bird photos each at the
Camerawork Gallery in Scranton, beginning
on Friday with a reception from 6 to 8:15
p.m. The show, called This Show Is For The
Birds, will run through Oct. 29 and give
a stage to photos ranging from serious to
humorous.
He (Goldman) takes formal portraits;
I take candid shots, Listanski, of Clarks
Summit, said. I did the captions. I put down
what I think they were saying.
Both of us like nature, Listanski said. I
like all types of photography. To me birds are
always conversing. I thought Id let them talk
about the situation.
Most of Listanskis shots were taken in
Florida. Goldman, of Lake Ariel, said he shot
all of his in Northeastern Pennsylvania.
What Im trying to do with my bird pho-
tography other than keep getting better
and better is show people the beauty and
diversity of nature, Goldman said. Birds are
just one part of it, the outdoors that God cre-
ated for us.
He said what hes showing at Camerawork
is just a small part of a larger collection taken
over about two years.
He does a lot of eagle photography, but for
this show, with a small space and small photo
size all are 8-by-10 prints he felt he
could not adequately show them.
He said Listanski asked him to be a part of
an exhibit at the gallery.
Ray approached me and said, Want to do
a bird show? I said sure, and that was it.
Photographer Rolfe Ross, a partner in
Camerawork, said Listanski and Goldman
met through the photography club.
When they approached us to do a show,
they said they wanted to do it together
because they both had bird photos, Ross
said.
Camerawork Gallery is downstairs in the
Marquis Gallery at the Laundry Building, 515
Center St., Scranton. The public can view the
exhibit during gallery hours, which are 10
a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
Photographers guess
what they would say
Sandra Bullocks return to big screen a cosmic thriller
AMY LONGSDORF
For The Times Leader
In Gravity, Sandra Bullock plays
a NASA medical engineer stranded
in outer space. A collision with space
debris puts her and her co-pilot (George
Clooney) out of touch with their dam-
aged ship. For much of the move, shes
forced to oat 375 miles above Earth,
struggling to nd a way to stay alive.
Occasionally, Bullock attempts to
talk herself through the situation,
which gets more and more harrowing
by the minute.
Bullock might not know what it feels
like to be suspended in outer space, but
she certainly could relate to her charac-
ters way with a monologue.
Sadly, Ive learned that I talk to
myself all the time, Bullock says with
a laugh. Not something Im proud
of, but I will literally just narrate, Do
this, get that. Right now, I just do it
to go through my mental list because
Im very list and detail-oriented. When
someone starts talking back, well
know we have problems.
At the moment, Bullock is problem-
free. The actress is coming off the $200
million-grossing The Heat, one of
the most successful lms of her career.
And the 3D Gravity, which opens
Friday, has the makings of a critical
and commercial hit.
Written and directed by Alfonso
Cuaron (Children of Men), Gravity
already has garnered rave reviews dur-
ing its festival run. Variety described
the movie as a nerve-shredding sus-
penser, a daring study in extreme isola-
tion, and one of the most sophisticated
and enveloping visions of space travel
yet realized on screen.
The Hollywood Reporters Todd
McCarthy was just as enthusiastic,
calling the lm the most realistic and
beautifully choreographed lm ever set
in space before adding that Gravity
is a thrillingly realized survival story
spiked with interludes of breath-catch-
ing tension and startling surprise.
When Cuaron rst decided upon the
idea of making Gravity, which he co-
wrote with his son Jonas, he knew he
wanted to be as authentic to the phys-
ics of outer space as possible.
It was clear from the get go that the
actors were going to be oating in zero
gravity, he says. We tried to honor
zero g and zero resistance, meaning
that the characters would not only be
oating but they would be spinning
and stuff. Then just to complicate mat-
ters, we also wanted long uid shots as
well.
And then we started trying to gure
out how to do that.
After originally planning on using a
continually plunging jetliner dubbed
the vomit comet which Howard
employed on Apollo 13, Cuaron even-
tually settled on another device to sim-
ulate weightlessness.
Cuarn and company constructed a
10-by-14-foot cube illuminated by LED
lights. Bullockwas suspendedinside the
contraption via a special harness and
twelve wires. Computer-operated cam-
eras then swirled around her, making it
seem as if she were oating in space.
More than once Bullock has used the
word gruesome to describe the appa-
ratus.
There was some blood and some
blisters, the actress says. It liter-
ally took at least 20 minutes to get
into and out of it. (Once I was) har-
nessed and locked in, I had almost
no control over (my movements).

HUGO MARTIN
Los Angeles Times
LOS ANGELES
With macho-sounding
names like Tough Mudder,
Warrior Dash and the
Spartan Race, obstacle
course races have turned
mud, sweat and tears into
a ood of revenue.
Over the past year,
obstacle races have sur-
passed marathons in popu-
larity, with an estimated
1.6 million participants
paying hefty fees to slosh
through mud pits, crawl
under barbed wire, scale
10-foot walls and plunge
into troughs of ice water.
Course organizers are rak-
ing in millions of dollars in
the process.
But race organizers
and participants say the
adrenaline-pumping races
may have reached a crucial
point, with course design-
ers now forced to dream up
new obstacles and themes
or risk losing the novelty
that has driven the hugely
protable sport.
We are going to have to
continue to be creative,
said Dave Iannone, chief
executive and co-founder
of the Hero Rush, a race
with obstacles designed
to mimic the physical chal-
lenges of being a reght-
er. Everyone is trying to
nd something of a niche.
Its a crucial challenge
because obstacle-course
races draw as many as
13,000 participants per
event, with entry fees of
$65 to $180, plus parking
charges. The race distanc-
es range from three to 12
miles. But the obstacles
are often very similar at
many of the races.
In the past year or so,
a wave of new race orga-
nizers have entered the
fray, hosting disorganized
events with unchalleng-
ing obstacles. Among the
obstacles at the Mud-a-
Palooza race in Camarillo,
Calif., last year were plastic
hula hoops and Styrofoam
cubes.
We have started to
reach a saturation, said
Matt Robinson, race direc-
tor at Red Frog Events,
a Chicago organizer of
obstacle races, including
the Warrior Dash and the
Great Urban Race. That
is why it is important to
continue to reinvent the
Warrior Dash.
To keep adrenaline
junkies happy, a few races
push the danger level to
an extreme. The popu-
lar Tough Mudder races
direct competitors to run
or crawl under live wires,
charged with up to 10,000
volts of electricity, enough
to make you cringe and
scream but not enough to
kill you.
Race organizers
declined to disclose their
prots, but revenues for
many of the events have
surged in the past few
years to include entrance
fees, sponsorships and
merchandise sales. Advil
recently became the of-
cial pain reliever of the
Tough Mudder.
Red Frog Events started
with one obstacle race
and 2,000 runners in 2009
and plans to expand to 50
races in places around the
globe, such as Queensland,
Australia, and Torino,
Italy, with more than
600,000 participants by
the end of this year. The
company reported about
$1 million in revenue in
2009 and approximately
$50 million in 2012.
I dont think you could
have ever imagined that
it would grow as fast as
it did, Robinson said.
People are willing to pay
for such experiences to
escape from reality.
Another hugely success-
ful race organizer, Tough
Mudder, began with three
events and 20,000 partici-
pants in 2010. Last year,
35 Tough Mudder races
drew more than 460,000
participants. Organizers
plan 52 events in 2013
with as many as 700,000
competitors.
The organizers of Tough
Mudder say they are on
track to collect $100 mil-
lion in revenue in 2013.
Its denitely a great
return on investment,
said Tough Mudder Chief
Culture Ofcer Alex
Patterson.
The races appeal to
athletes and thrill seekers
looking for bragging rights
or a new challenge that
surpasses the once-pop-
ular ve- or 10-kilometer
races.
Theyre challenging,
and I love to compete,
said Aracely Rodriguez,
25, a Cal State San Luis
Obispo graduate student
who has competed in
about 15 obstacle races in
the past 18 months.
Attendance numbers
continue to climb, but race
organizers say they must
continue to push the thrills
to new levels by increasing
the distance on some races
and adding more difcult
obstacles on others.
The organizers of the
Spartan Race now host
a three-mile Spartan
Sprint, an eight-mile Super
Spartan and a 12-mile
Spartan Beast. In some
races, competitors who
cant complete an obstacle
must endure a penalty,
such as a plunge into an
ice bath.
The organizer of the
Rugged Maniac races is
pushing the risk factor
even higher by replicating
Pamplonas running of the
bulls in the United States.
The race series, known as
the Great Bull Run, drew
12,000 participants who
sprinted alongside angry
bulls at the rst event in
Virginia in August. The
bull run will swing through
Southern California in
March.
I think its going to be
an arms race, said Rob
Dickens, the chief oper-
ating ofcer of Rugged
Races, who also founded
the Great Bull Run. I
think people will try to dif-
ferentiate the obstacles.
When the obstacle race
trend began a few years
ago, organizers said they
couldnt nd insurance
companies willing to cover
such events. There are no
national safety regulations
for obstacle races, but race
organizers have appeased
the insurance industry
by stafng the races with
emergency medical teams.
They also require runners
to sign long liability waiv-
ers.
New obstacles with
increased risks are now
what drive many competi-
tors to keep returning to
the races.
If its new and not
the same old, same old,
I like that, said Justin
Henderson, a systems
technician from Chino,
who has completed four
obstacle races in the past
few months.
But organizers must
walk a ne line in design-
ing such obstacles.
In April, Avishek
Sengupta, 28, drowned at
a Tough Mudder race in
West Virginia after jump-
ing from a 15-foot-high
Walk the Plank obstacle
to a muddy pit of water
below. No one was charged
in the death, which author-
ities ruled an accident.
As organizers, we take
our responsibility to pro-
vide a safe event to our
participants very seri-
ously, Will Dean, CEO of
Tough Mudder, said in a
statement after the death.
It is believed to be
the fourth death in an
obstacle-course race since
2011.
Some race directors are
moving in another direc-
tion by reducing the risk
factor to appeal to families.
Red Frog Events, for
example, recently expand-
ed its offerings to include a
beer festival and Illuminite
Runs, three-mile nighttime
races with participants
who wield neon glow-
sticks and dance to the
music from live DJs after
the run.
Said Robinson, events
director at Red Frog: Who
knows how long the mud
run fad will go on?

To make matters even
more complicated, Cuaron
had to map many of his
shots out beforehand
because so many involved
CGI. Bullock then had
to match her movements
exactly to Cuarons speci-
cations. For some scenes,
her limbs were manipu-
lated by the same puppe-
teers who worked on War
Horse on Broadway.
Id be trying to get my
hand here, and it would
wind up there, the actress,
49, recalls. Then Id have
(one of the crew members)
going, Uh, Sandy, your
hand needs to be right
here, and theres like a
blister coming, and some-
thing is cutting into my leg
as (Im) hanging from this
wire.
In the middle of all that
Bullock also was trying to
deliver a performance.
The puppeteers are
maybe swinging your legs
up, but you could have all
the emotion you wanted,
if you could nd it, com-
ing out of your face,
Bullock says. It was like
I had to match (my body)
physically and timing-wise
(to Cuarons preplanned
visions), but everything (in
my face) needed to be com-
pletely new and organic.
Cuaron has nothing but
praise for what the actress
was able to achieve under
such extreme conditions.
The truth of the mat-
ter is that Sandra trained
so much and rehearsed
so much that when we
were shooting we would
rarely discuss the techni-
cal aspect. Sometimes I
would say, Can you reach
a little higher? but most of
the time we were just talk-
ing about performance and
emotion. That was her con-
stant concern and preoccu-
pation.
Gravity came to
Bullock at a time when she
was, interesting enough,
eager to take a break from
Hollywood. After her Oscar
win for The Blind Side,
she underwent a messy,
very public split from her
husband, reality TV star
Jesse James. She also was
in the process of adopting
her son, Louis, whos now
three.
With the exception of a
small role in Extremely
Loud and Incredibly
Close, Bullock had been
away fromacting for almost
three years when Cuaron
ew down to the actresss
home in Austin, Texas, to
discuss Gravity. (Even
though it came out rst,
The Heat was shot after
Gravity.)
Cuaron says Gravity is
about overcoming adver-
sity and that during that
rst meeting with Bullock,
they spoke of almost noth-
ing else.
When Sandra and I met
for the rst time, we talked
about (adversity) in life,
the lmmaker notes. Our
connection, before we even
began talking creatively,
was about life. We had an
understanding about big
things in life. That was part
of the process, at least for
me.
While Bullock originally
was reluctant to go back to
work, she wound up saying
yes to Cuaron.
I had such envy of this
movie but I didnt know
how it was going to work,

El i t e Deal er
NBC Sports Network
is facing a urry of criti-
cism over an episode of the
outdoor sports program
Under WildSkies inwhich
a National Rie Association
strategist shoots and kills an
African elephant.
In the episode that aired
Sunday night, host Tony
Makris and a guide stalk an
elephant in the Okavango
Delta of Botswana a
mecca for elephant hunt-
ing, according to a narra-
tor.
Makris boasts of his pos-
itively lethal rie and the
.577 ammunition (made
to kill ivory) used to take
down the beast. Hiding in
a bush, he res two shots
a the cheeky pachyderm,
who runs away. Makris and
his guide eventually catch
up to the elephant, killing it.
They later celebrate the kill
with a bottle of Champagne.
In response to public out-
cry, NBC Sports Network
has decided not to rebroad-
cast this particular episode
but will continue to air
Under Wild Skies.
The episode has sparked
an online petition calling
for NBC Sports to cancel
the NRA-sponsored Under
Wild Skies. The series is
not produced by the net-
work but is whats known
as a time buy, in which
outside producers pay to
air content not unlike an
infomercial.
Weve listened to our
viewers and will not air that
particular episode of Under
Wild Skies again. Were
also taking a close look at
our internal standards as
part of this process because
this content should not have
aired, the network said in
a statement. While this
form of hunting is legal,
we understand that many
viewers nd it objection-
able. As a result we are tak-
ing an aggressive approach
towards objectionable con-
tent within future episodes
of Under Wild Skies and
other series.
As detailed by The
Washington Post earlier
this year, Makris is a public
relations strategist who has
helped manage the NRAs
image for the past 30 years.
In the 1990s, he helped
install Charlton Heston as
president of the lobbying
group.
More recently, his rm,
Mercury Group, a subsid-
iary of the advertising and
public relations agency
Ackerman McQueen, was
behind a highly contro-
versial NRA ad accusing
President Barack Obama of
hypocrisy for his skepticism
over the groups proposal
to put armed guards in
schools across the country.

Five things you need to knowabout revamped comments on YouTube
YouTube is known for drawing users
who like to leave vile and mean com-
ments on videos, but now, the Google-
owned video service is rolling out
changes that could help weed out such
commentary.
So how exactly is YouTube changing
the way users leave comments or read
them? Heres what you need to know.
Most recent comment
no longer at top
Comments on YouTube can be tough
to follow because theyre primarily
displayed based on the time they were
posted. The most recent comments y
up to the top. That means more inter-
esting comments easily can be lost
while nasty comments from others can
stay at the top, as long as they were just
posted.
When it comes to the conversations
happening on YouTube, recent does not
necessarily mean relevant, YouTube
said in a blog announcing its changes.
Going forward, comments will no
longer be displayed based on when they
were posted, YouTube said.
See comments from
those you care about
Instead, comments will now be dis-
played based on whether they may
interest users.
Comments posted by the video cre-
ator, prominent personalities, and
users who are in your Google+ circles
will oat to the top. Users also will see
conversations with strong user engage-
ment, so any interesting things strang-
ers are saying also will be near the top
of the comments you see.
Limit visibility
of your comments
Users also will be able to select who
they make their comments visible too.
With this change, users can decide to
make their comments public, visible
to just the people in their Google+ cir-
cles or limited to just a couple of their
friends.
This change may encourage more
users to engage YouTube videos with
comments.
New moderation tools
Video creators also are getting new
tools to help them moderate the com-
ments on their posts. With the chang-
es, creators can now block comments
with certain words from posting before
rst being reviewed. Additionally, cre-
ators also will be able to automatically
approve or block comments from spe-
cic users.
Coming to all this year
YouTube said the changes to its
comments section will begin rolling
out soon. Users will start seeing the
changes over the course of the coming
months, and by the end of the year, the
update will apply to all the videos on
YouTube.

vice agencies and local civic and community leaders. As part of
TCMCs Patient Centered Medicine MD course, the Community
Action Poverty Simulation (CAPS) is designed to help students
experience the virtual realities of living in poverty day so they can
address the cultural disparities of patients living in lower socio-
economic classes. Using a simulation kit, students role-played
the lives of low-income families. Students interacted with human
service agencies, grocers, pawn brokers, bill collectors, job inter-
viewers, police officers and more who were portrayed by TCMC
staff and local agencies, civic and community volunteers. The
simulation was designed to raise awareness of cultural disparities
and the need to understand the whole patient when treating symp-
toms and diseases. Some of the participants, from left, first row:
Mary Acquaviva, community volunteer; Dr. Jennifer Joyce, educa-
tion/course director, TCMC; and Sister Ann Walsh, Friends of the
Poor. Second row: Carol Chaykosky, Area Health Education Center;
Gretchen Hunt, Commission on Economic Opportunity; Maureen
Sullivan, Friends of the Poor; Michael Hanley, executive director,
United Neighborhood Centers; Tony Acquaviva, community volun-
teer; and Dr. Francis Dawgert, pediatrician and TCMC faculty.

RENE RODRIGUEZ
The Miami Herald
Doctor Sleep by
Stephen King; Scribner
(544 pages, $30)
Mrs. Massey, the decom-
posing woman from Room
217, shows up on page ve.
Tony, the little boy who lives
inside Danny Torrances
mouth, appears soon after-
wards. And REDRUM is just
around the corner. Stephen
Kings eagerly awaited
sequel to his seminal 1977
novel The Shining his
most popular work and one
of his best picks up imme-
diately after the end of the
rst book.
The young Danny and
his mother Wendy received
a large settlement from the
corporate owners of the
Overlook Hotel and wound
up living in Tampa. The
Overlooks former head chef,
Dick Halloran, lives in Key
West and drops in on them
fromtime to time. The mem-
ories of that horrible winter
when Dannys alcoholic
dad Jack lost his mind and
went after his wife and son
with a croquet mallet
are still fresh. And some of
the ghosts and monsters
that terrorized the family
at the Colorado resort have
followed them to the East
Coast.
Anyone who knows The
Shining only from Stanley
Kubricks lm adaptation,
which made radical depar-
tures from the text, may be a
bit confused at rst. But after
that brief prologue, Doctor
Sleep jumps ahead two
decades and sets out on its
own narrative path. Wendy,
a lifelong smoker, has died
of lung cancer. Danny, who
is now 30 and goes by Dan,
has become his fathers son,
an alcoholic loser who cant
hold down a job. In one of
the books best and earliest
chapters, Mama, he wakes
up hung over in the shabby
apartment of a woman
whose name he can barely
remember, his face blood-
ied and bruised, his wallet
empty, trying to gure out
where he is.
There was a coffee table
in front of the sofa. On it was
an ashtray lled with butts, a
baggie lled with white pow-
der, and a People magazine
with more blow scattered
across it. Beside it, complet-
ing the picture, was a dollar
bill, still partly rolled up. He
didnt know how much they
had snorted, but judging by
how much still remained, he
could kiss his ve hundred
dollars goodbye.
King, who has publicly
discussed his voracious
cocaine and alcohol abuse
in the 1980s, writes about
addiction from the inside in,
with the authority and detail
of someone who survived
it. When Danny suddenly
spots an 18-month-old boy
in diapers trotting toward
the drugs on the coffee
table shouting Canny! and
reaching for the cocaine, the
moment is as terrifying as
anything in all of Kings nov-
els. Once again, the writer
is able to conjure up real-life
horrors as scary as make-
believe ones.
His knack for nding the
dark and ominous in every-
day situations has always
been a key element of Kings
success. His ability for keep-
ing even the most outlandish
scenarios grounded in reality
is critical to Doctor Sleep,
which turns out to be much
more like Firestarter, an
action-thriller tinged with
science ction, than the
hair-raising horrors of The
Shining. The book centers
on a band of traveling psy-
chic vampires who call them-
selves The True Knot, keep
a home base on the grounds
where the Overlook once
stood and roam the roads
in RVs, looking to feed on
people gifted with Dannys
shining powers a com-
bination of telepathy and
the ability to see the future.
The group is led by a beauti-
ful 6-foot woman known as
Rose OHara, who is fond
of wearing a top hat and
whose human form is a dis-
guise for a ghastly monster
with a gaping maw bearing
only one enormous, gnarled
tooth. Kings genius stroke
his way of making these
villains frightening instead of
cartoonish is to make the
Knots most favored victims
children.
And if you happen to be
one of those unfortunate peo-
ple whos ever lost a kid
nothing left but a bike in the
vacant lot down the street,
or a little cap lying in the
bushes at the edge of a near-
by stream you probably
never thought of them. Why
would you? No, it was prob-
ably some hobo. Or (worse
to consider, but horribly
plausible) some sick (exple-
tive) from your very own
town, maybe your very own
neighborhood, maybe even
your very own street, some
sick killer pervo whos very
good at looking normal and
will go on looking normal
until someone nds a clatter
of bones in the guys base-
ment or buried in his back-
yard. Youd never think of
the RV People, those midlife
pensioners and cheery older
folks in their golf hats and
sun visors with appliqued
owers on them.
When the group learns of
the existence of Abra, a little
girl Danny has befriended
who has extraordinary shin-
ing powers, they head out on
a cross-country trip to New
Hampshire to capture her.
The bulk of Doctor Sleep is
the kind of exciting and elab-
orate chase adventure King
excels at crafting. But the
author, who is now 65 and
has perhaps grown kinder
and less merciless with age,
rarely writes novels these
days that end with a devas-
tating nale (think Cujo or
The Dead Zone). You read
Doctor Sleep in the same
furious rush with which
most people read The
Shining, but the stakes are
much lower, and the ending
is never really in doubt.
Although the book con-
tains some profoundly dis-
turbing passages (including
the Knots prolonged torture
and murder of a little boy),
Doctor Sleep is never all
that scary. The book is best
at depicting how even the
most damaged people can
rebuild their lives, as long as
they are willing to put in the
work a theme that gives
the novel an autobiographi-
cal air. The title refers to the
job Dan gets at a hospice,
where he uses his powers
to help comfort the dying
as they make their way into
the afterlife. That may sound
hokey, but King makes those
sequences strangely affect-
ing, even moving.
In the latter stage of this
remarkably prolic writers
career, his trademark pen-
chant for ghastly, bloody
horror is gradually being
overshadowed by humane,
heartfelt compassion.

WEEK 4 PREDICTIONS
GREG COTE
The Miami Herald
GAME OF THE WEEK
DOLPHINS (3-0) AT SAINTS (3-0)
Line: NO by 6 .
Cotes pick: NO 34-20.
Frankly there are better Week 4 matchups Id peg more likely for closer
games Seahawks-Texans and Patriots-Falcons come to mind but I
can hardly be accused of playing the homer card in giving the Game of
the Week nod to a pair of 3-0 teams merging on a Monday stage. I only
wish I could give Miami much of a chance to get to 4-0 for the frst
time since 1995 in its record 79th MNF appearance. But I cant. I dont.
It isnt that I think the Dolphins are a fuke; Miami should be one of the
75.4 percent majority of 3-0 teams that go on to make the playofs.
No, it is that DrewBrees seems all but unstoppable, and doubly so at
home. He has eight straight 300-yard games and also is on an 8-0
run on Mondays, with a 24-5 TD/pick ratio and a 120.6 rating over
that span. The Dolphins also tend to have trouble with other teams
tight ends, and the ex-Cane Jimmy Grahamhappens to be a one-man
wrecking ball, with 313 receiving yards in past two games. Factor the
possibility both DT Paul Soliai and DE CamWake could miss the game
injured and I just cant see Miami keeping the Saints under 30. This
is the Dolphins big chance to barge into the national conversation.
Alas, the likelihood of a rout seems greater to me than the chance of
an upset.
UPSET OF THE WEEK
BEARS (3-0) AT LIONS (2-1)
Line: DET by 3.
Cotes pick: CHI 27-24.
AAAWWWK! yodels the Upset Bird, coptering over this game
as a vulture might hover over carrion. Marc Trestmaawwk! New
coach Marc Trestmaawwk I mean Trestman has the Bears believing,
but series trends predating his arrival make me like Chitown here.
Bears have beaten Motown in nine of past 10, with 27 takeaways.
My big concern about this call isnt that Detroit should have Reggie
Bush back. It is that the Windies might not have CB Charles Tillman
(groin), who is one of the fewguys with a positive history covering
Calvin Johnson. Indeed, Megatron poses a concern, admits U-Bird.
Nevertheless: Chicaaawwwk!
DOG OF THE WEEK
STEELERS (0-3) vs. VIKINGS (0-3) in London
Line: PIT by 1 .
Cotes pick: PIT 23-20.
Hello, London! Will you forgive us turning Wembley Stadiuminto
Winless Stadium? Actually there is at least one NFL game this week
Id much less rather watch than this one (nothing personal, Cardinals-
Bucs), but the Dog committee simply could not resist the weeks only
clash of 0-3s. Luckily, Steelers-Vikings seems like a great matchup
to most Brits, wo dont knowany better. Pittsburgh and Minnesota are
going fromcountry to country until they fnd one they can win in. QB
Christian Ponder (ribs) is ify for Purples, helping tilt the pick.
RAVENS (2-1) AT BILLS (1-2)
Line: BAL by 3 .
Cotes pick: BAL 27-13.
The Ravens risk a natural letdown after last weeks home rout of
Houston, but the Bufs present a struggling ofense to a Baltimore
defense that has not allowed an opponent TD for two straight games.
Also, Ray Rice should return frominjury here for Crows, his welcome
wagon a god-awful Williams run-D.
BENGALS (2-1) AT BROWNS (1-2)
Line: CIN by 4 .
Cotes pick: CIN 21-19.
The font of Ohioans pride, this state battle fnds both teams coming
of dramatic wins. Brownies rallied past Vikings, and Gals became frst
teamsince 1999 to somehowwin despite allowing 30 unanswered
points. Cincys Marvin Lewis is 14-6 vs. Earthtones, including seven of
past nine, and two of past three by the lake. Like Clevers to stay close,
though. CBJoe Haden should make A.J. Green work for his yards.
GIANTS (0-3) AT CHIEFS (3-0)
Line: KC by 4 .
Cotes pick: KC 27-24.
So many reasons point to Chiefs here. K.C. and Justin Houston lead
league in sacks, and Giants O-line is what Charles Barkley might call
turrible. Carrful Chiefs are plus-9 on turnovers, and bumbling NYG
is minus-13. Andy Reid is 2-0 this season vs. former NFC East rivals.
And yet! I gut-feel this one close, and give NYG a major upset shot.
Bonus fact: Giants, Redskins and Steelers are all 0-3 for frst time in
NFL history.
CARDINALS (1-2) AT BUCCANEERS (0-3)
Line: TB by 2 .
Cotes pick: TB 20-17
Third-round rookie Mike Glennon out of North Carolina State makes
his frst QB start for Buccaneers upon the benching of Josh Freeman.
Coach Greg Schianos desperation is showing, but this is needed fresh
air and could be a spark. especially if WRVincent Jackson (ribs)
can play. Zona is battling a bunch of injuries so make it an unconfdent
venue pick.
COLTS (2-1) AT JAGUARS (0-3)
Line: IND by 8.
Cotes pick: IND 23-17.
Indy has a stout ground game (146.3 average) fortifed by Trent
Richardson, and J-Ville has the dead-worst run defense in the league.
Still, Jags are home and should have Blaine Gabbert back, and they
catch Colts coming of a big upset of San Fran. So there are reasons
to be tempted by that large point spread, especially if the homies can
manage an afternoon of vintage Maurice Jones-Drew.
SEAHAWKS (3-0) AT TEXANS (2-1)
Line: SEAby 3.
Cotes pick: HOU 24-21.
Upset! Houston was my preseason Super Bowl pick (yes, I still admit
that), and I like Texans to bounce back big at home here after that
embarrassing loss to Ravens. Seattle, though good everywhere, is not
as dominant on the road, and is due a stumble. The recipe for HOU:
Alot fewer penalties than last weeks 14, no Matt Schaub INTs, Andre
Johnson (shin) in the lineup and J.J. Watt reminding Russell Wilson he
isnt in his home comfort zone.
JETS (2-1) AT TITANS (2-1)
Line: TEN by 3 .
Cotes pick: TEN 21-20.
Two teams pleasantly surprised to be 2-1 fnds Jets leading league
with 34 penalties and Titans (31) not far behind, but Tennessee has
zero turnovers. Take Nashvillians at home in what essentially is a coin-
fip game, but leaning Planes ATS with that dangling extra half point
tantalizing me like a damned piece of pie.
REDSKINS (0-3) AT RAIDERS (1-2)
Line: WAS by 3.
Cotes pick: WAS 27-23.
Terrelle Pryors ify status (concussion) had Matt Flynn on call
for Oakland, not a huge drop-of. Two really bad defenses here.
Washingtons is worse, but Robert Grifn III is better equipped to take
advantage of fssures on the Raiders side. Give Oaks a medium-large
upset shot but stick with the Unmentionable Nicknames.
EAGLES (1-2) AT BRONCOS (3-0)
Line: DEN by 10 .
Cotes pick: DEN 41-24.
The Saturday over/under (57 points) suggests an entertaining game
if not a close one. Howcan you go wrong with Peyton Mannings
awesome air-raid ofense on one side and the furry of Chip Kelly and
his blitzkrieg rushing attack on the other? But heres the diference:
Broncos put up a solid run defense against Phillys strength, but
the Birds have little on pass-D to suggest Peyton wont put up huge
numbers once again. Big point spread, but an even bigger faith in
Manning right now.
COWBOYS (2-1) AT CHARGERS (1-2)
Line: DAL by 2.
Cotes pick: DAL 30-24.
Chargers family jarred this week by the suicide of former teammate
Paul Oliver, a safety from2007 to 2011. Hard to read the efect of that,
if any. More tangibly, Tony Romo and DeMarco Murray could fantasy-
pleasing stats against a beatable Diego defebse, and Cows pass rush
should really test a shaky Bolts O-line.
PATRIOTS (3-0) AT FALCONS (1-2)
Line: ATL by 2.
Cotes pick: ATL 27-23.
Heres a game Id pay to watch. So strange for the Patriots to be
getting points (even two), and thats makes English a seriously
tempting underdog in this Sunday prime-timer. Its just that Atlanta
is much more desperate and also is a very strong home club; Matt
Ryan is 34-5 as a starter in the ATL. TomBrady and his Pats are due
an ofensive bustout game, but with Rob Gronkowski and Danny
Amendola likely both still out, this doesnt feel like the week for that.
OFF THIS WEEK
PACKERS (1-2; next vs. Lions): Aaron Rodgers Pack scored 30
unanswered points at Cincinnati last week and somehowmanaged to
lose only the third time in NFL history that has happened.
PANTHERS (1-2; next at Cardinals): In last weeks 38-0 win Cats
sacked NYGs Eli Manning seven times, forced three turnovers and
held Lilliputians under 150 yards ofense. The word is annihilation.
Fromhigh hopes

FANTASY FOOTBALL
RICH SHEPOSH
[email protected]
Remember when you were a kid? What was the worst
thing your parents could have said to you?
OK, so its probably, Were sending you to a Calcutta
orphanage, but aside from that, whats the worst thing
they could have said?
We are sooo disappointed in you.
You could make them boil with rage, scream like a
banshee stuck in trafc, ail their arms around with
crazed abandon and youd get over it. But the last
thing you wanted to do was let them down.
And while NFL players dont care if they let you
down, they sure can leave you disappointed.
There are several August superstars who have start-
ed the season off like 10th round draft picks. But are
they just slow starters or is something really wrong?
Lets nd out by using the power of speculation, shall
we.
1: C.J. Spiller, RB, Bills: When offensive coordina-
tor Nathaniel Hackett said the Bills were going to run
Spiller until he throws up, he really meant until his
fantasy owners throw up. The electric back with the
career 5.2-yards-per-carry average is slogging around
averaging 3.8 yards and getting outplayed by 32-year-
old Fred Jackson. Should you worry? Yes, a little. His
career pattern is to play in Jackson s shadow until the
older backs inevitable injury, and then become a fan-
tasy stud. If thats the case again this year and I think
it will be youll have a nice RB for the stretch run.
If thats not the case grab a barf bag. WORRY-O-
METER: 6
2: Doug Martin, RB, Buccaneers: After Adrian
Peterson, Martin was the consensus No. 2 pick in the
draft. It was expected hed build on a great rookie sea-
son and take the step into superstardom. And, in fair-
ness to him, hes done his part. Problem is, his offense
is falling apart around him. Should you trust him going
forward? Yes. Hes second in the NFL in rushing and
hes the best chance Tampa has to rebound offensively.
Look for him to get move involved in the passing game
as well. WORRY-O-METER: 4
3: Tom Brady, QB, Patriots: People have gotten
used to the fantasy god Tom Brady the guy who
routinely put up 38 TD passes and irted with 5,000
yards. But that Tom Brady had big-time weapons at his
disposal. How easy we forget that the Brady who won
Super Bowls didnt put up mind-numbing stats. He just
won games. The 2013 Patriots dont have the horses
for a high-powered offense, and as a result Bradys fan-
tasy stock is probably going to stay where it is now
the 250 yards, 2 TDs per game level. Hell still be
a winning QB, just not an upper-tier fantasy winner.
WORRY-O-METER: 8
4: Roddy White, WR, Falcons: Whites been playing
through a high ankle sprain and its completely sapped
his production. While that kind of injury can linger, the
bigger concern for his fantasy prospects is the expect-
ed emergence of Julio Jones. Everyone knew the uber-
talented Jones would eventually become the Falcons
best receiver and thats what hes become. Whites
injury has kept him from being the high-end No. 2 guy
he was expected to be. The good news: Atlantas bye is
coming up and the extra rest will help. The bad news:
The schedule isnt doing the Falcons any favors with
some top defenses looming. He will play better, but not
up to the level fantasy owners expected. WORRY-O-
METER: 8
5: Ray Rice, RB, Ravens: Rice went down in Game
2 with a hip injury thats likely to keep him out today
in Buffalo . But even when he comes back, theres real
concern about how productive hes going to be. The
Ravens offense does not look like the same team that
won the Super Bowl. Even on that team, there were
signs Rices role was being slightly reduced. When
healthy, he still has a lot of value, but you drafted him
to carry your fantasy team and it just doesnt feel like
hes that kind of player anymore. WORRY-O-METER:
7
QUICK HITS FOR WEEK 4
Start em: With Aaron Rodgers and Cam Newton off
on byes, you are lucky if you have Jay Cutler as your
backup. A Bears-Lions game under the dome in Detroit
sounds like the makings of a 34-31 ballgame.
Bonus start: Watch the status of Raiders QB Terrelle
Pryor. IF he plays against the Redskins and you can
get him in your lineup, do it. Problem is, the game is
a 4 p.m. start and you may need to make a decision
sooner than that.
Of course youre going to start Colts RB Trent
Richardson. But be prepared for his best game of the
season. Hes had some time to learn the offense, his
main competition for the job is injured and Indy gets to
face the Jaguars. Sounds like a big lead with an empha-
sis on running out the clock.
Somehow, the Steelers found an offense last week
and WR Antonio Brown found himself a big game.
Now, this might not be the case every week, but against
a Vikings defense that cant seem to stop anyone, ride
Brown for one more week.
Sit em: Did you actually pick up Browns QB Brian
Hoyer after last weeks game against the Vikings? Good
for you. Did you realize he played against Minnesota ?
A defense that has given up 34, 31 and 31 points the
rst three weeks? The Bengals are not the Vikings.
If youre waiting for Titans RB Chris Johnson to
have a breakout game, you might want to wait a bit lon-
ger like until after their Week 8 bye. A tough stretch
of defenses awaits the next few weeks starting with an
underrated Jets squad today.
Andre Johnson, WR, Texans. Hes been battling
injury and he gets to face the hellacious Seahawks
defense. Yeah. Sucks to be him.

The Patriots Tom Brady is a great quarterback. Thats not even
debatable. But what is up for question is, with the lack of offensive
weapons on the Pats, can his fantasy production come close to
what was expected.
Giants dont want Chiefs
Smith to outsmart them
ARTSTAPLETON
The Record (Hackensack, N.J.)
EAST RUTHERFORD,
N.J. Alex Smith insists
theres no secret to avoiding
interceptions.
I wish there was, the
Chiefs quarterback earlier
this week, promising his abil-
ity to take care of the football
is nothing more than know-
ing when to let go and when
to hold on.
If youre going out there
trying not to turn the ball
over, thats a problem,
added Smith, who will lead
undefeated Kansas City into
Sundays game with the win-
less Giants at Arrowhead
Stadium. You need to go
out there and execute. You
need to go out there and
make plays, but within the
structure of you doing your
job. There needs to be ball
security and for me thats
two hands in the pocket and
making good decisions.
Its seeing the defense,
trusting my reads, my pro-
gressions and then throwing
the ball where its supposed
to go.
The Giants were never
supposed to be here: 0-3 for
the rst time since 1996, in
danger of falling to 0-4 for
just the third time in the
88-year history of the fran-
chise.
Truth be told: the Chiefs
were not supposed to be
here, either, having won
their rst three games under
former Eagles coach Andy
Reid to already eclipse their
2-14 record in 2012.
They also traded with the
49ers for Smith, who was
replaced as San Franciscos
starting quarterback midway
through last season by Colin
Kaepernick, who led themto
the Super Bowl. All Smith
has done is restore a sem-
blance of order to the Kansas
City offense, which has yet
to commit a turnover after
the Chiefs were victimized
by 37 giveaways last season,
tied with the Jets and Eagles
for most in the NFL.
Smith has thrown the few-
est interceptions in the NFL
among quarterbacks with
at least 1,000 pass attempts
since 2010: six fewer than
Tom Brady, eight fewer than
Peyton Manning and Aaron
Rodgers.
The Giants have had suc-
cess against Smith in past
seasons, however, winning
two of the last three meet-
ings, including the NFC
Championship Game at
Candlestick Park en route to
Super Bowl XLVI.
Their most impressive
defensive performance of the
2012 campaign came at the
expense of Smith when they
dominated with six sacks
ve of Smith and one of
Kaepernick and regis-
tered three interceptions in a
26-3 triumph over the 49ers.
I think the quarterback is
doing an excellent job of tak-
ing what the defense gives
him, Giants defensive coor-
dinator Perry Fewell said. I
think they do a good job of
running the football and he
doesnt feel pressured into
making bad decisions. It
does help a little bit (to have
had previous success against
Smith). You have some
knowledge of the player. He
had good skill there in San
Francisco also.
Youre hoping that you
can force him to make some
bad decisions.
The Giants will again be
without cornerback Corey
Webster (hip), which means
Aaron Ross will start oppo-
site Prince Amukamara.
The best way to neutral-
ize Smith might be shutting
down running back Jamaal
Charles, who has rushed for
224 yards and three touch-
downs.
In his last 30 games, Smith
has thrown only 10 inter-
ceptions, three against the
Giants.
One of the reasons why
theyre where they are, Tom
Coughlin said.
SNEE, BAAS OUT:
Four-time Pro Bowl right
guard Chris Snee (hip) and
starting center David Baas
(neck) were ruled out while
veteran lineman David Diehl
(thumb) is listed as doubtful.
This is the second game
Snee will be forced to miss
since the end of his rookie
season in 2004, the other
one coming two seasons
ago.
James Brewer is expect-
ed to start in place of Snee,
while Jim Cordle could get
his rst NFL start at center.
The Giants could also slide
LG Kevin Boothe to center
and give Brandon Mosley
his rst start there.

Steelers reinforcing tradition
CHRIS MILLER
Star Tribune (Minneapolis)
Youmight thinkPittsburgh
Steelers fans are unrealistic
to expect the team will win
a Super Bowl every season.
But they dont have any-
thing on some of the players.
When the Steelers started
the season with losses to
Tennessee and Cincinnati,
and youngsters were not
living up to expectations,
a group of 10 veterans left
over from the teams last
championship team in 2008
had a meeting. They decided
there was a need to reinforce
tradition on a franchise that
has a record six Super Bowl
victories. The kids werent
being serious enough, and
the mainstays decided lock-
er room game tables could
not be used by anyone who
wasnt at least a four-year
veteran.
Losing is not an option
around here, said quarter-
back Ben Roethlisberger,
leader of the 08ers. We have
six Lombardi (Trophies)
and all the Hall of Famers
that have come here before
us. Theres a right (way) to
wear the black and gold, and
(we) have to make sure they
understand that.
How quickly will the
younger players catch on?
I dont think thats some-
thing that youll ever nd res-
olution to, Steelers coach
Mike Tomlin said. Its part
of being a Steeler, passing
down the oral history, talk-
ing about the contributions
and sacrices of those who
have come before. I dont
think thats ever something
you can check off and say
job done.?
Things have gotten
more serious this week.
The Steelers, who face
the Vikings in London on
Sunday, are coming off a
40-23 loss to Chicago in
which Roethlisberger had
an interception and a fumble
returned for touchdowns.
I cant have it happen,
the 10-year veteran said. If
we dont turn the ball over
in critical situations, or as
much as we have, then we
are in most of (our) games.
Roethlisberger and
Tomlin spoke via conference
call before the team arrived
in London on Friday.
The Steelers trademarks
have been a ferocious
defense and a power run-
ning game. This season,
theyre 28th in the league
in defense, havent forced
a turnover and have the
leagues lowest-rated run-
ning attack. They also are
31st in third-down conver-
sion percentage.
Weve created that situ-
ation due to ineffectiveness
on rst and second down,
Tomlin said. If youre in
third-and-long, youre going
to have a tough time con-
verting. Weve been in too
many third-and-longs, but
weve created it.
The Vikings are also 0-3.
Only one 0-4 team, the 1992
Chargers, made the NFL
playoffs since the eld was
expanded in 1990, so odds
are long that Sundays loser
will be playing in January.
Sometimes it just takes
one win to get your sea-
son going and get it right,
Roethlisberger said. I dont
think anybody expected pre-
season for both of us to be
0-3, but we are. Someone
will come out of this game
with a win.

Special teams not for Eagles
LES BOWEN
Philadelphia Daily News
PHILADELPHIA
The rst two games of the
season, the Eagles special
teams were rock-solid, even
if they didnt generate spec-
tacular returns. But against
Kansas City, all kinds of
stuff went wrong.
It started with the open-
ing kickoff, which former
Eagle Quintin Demps
brought back 57 yards. It
continued with the Eagles
rst touch of the game,
when Damaris Johnson
fumbled away a fair catch.
Nothing seemed to go
right from there; Donnie
Jones averaged a 34-yard
net on four punts, and
Demps broke out to his 30
on another kickoff return,
causing kicker Alex Henery
to haul him down with a
tackle that was ruled both
a horse-collar and a face-
mask, putting the ball on
the KC 45. Oh, and Henery
missed a 48-yard eld-
goal attempt, after miss-
ing a 46-yarder against the
Chargers.
This is yet another area
where the Eagles need to
get back to where they want
to be, with the Broncos and
returner Trindon Holliday
on tap. Holliday is the guy
who scored against the
Ravens in the playoffs on a
90-yard punt return and a
104-yard kickoff return.
I think all of us are
learning, special-teams
coordinator Dave Fipp said
this week. We didnt play
to our standard I have
a lot of condence in our
guys. Well continue to
grow, continue to improve.
Its a long season.
The Eagles have used
some starters on special
teams this year. Fipp said
he didnt think the three-
games-in-11-days stretch to
open the season meant any
of those guys were drag-
ging against the Chiefs.
Were very cautious
in who we use and when
we use them, what those
plays are, and how much
were taxing those guys
that are starters, Fipp
said. Usually our starters
are on one (special) team,
theyre not on three or
four.
Fipp said he isnt unhap-
py with Henery.
I dont worry about
Alex at all, Fipp said.
Hes missed two balls in
that 40-to-49 range. Hes 50
percent (from that range)
on the year. Everything
else is 100 percent.
Fipp said hell stay with
Johnson on punts and
kickoffs, with DeSean
Jackson making occa-
sional punt-return appear-
ances in special situations.

the sophomore, who has run
the read option attack so well
in the teams rst two games,
wtas held to just 63 rush-
ing yards and a 1-yard TD
run. Puckett also hooked up
with Juwan Petties-Jackson
for a 43-yard TD pass in
the third quarter. They
tried a similar play in the
fourth, but Petties-Jackson
couldnt get the separation
from Omar Richardson
that he did the rst time.
I think our defense is
coming. The last several
years, our defense has given
up a lot of points and a lot
of yards, Sheptock added.
Those young men have put
in a lot of hard work, have
reallybought intothesystem.
I think were doing some bet-
ter things fundamentallyI
think the Wilkes defense is
making a return where were
able to stop some people
and shut them down. Im
real proud of the defense.

Eric Seidle | For The Times Leader
Runners take off at Saturday mornings start of the 8.1-mile run around Harveys Lake
Albright wears down Kings
TOM FOX
For the Times Leader
WILKES-BARRE Its
one of the stranger plays
you will ever see.
A blocked 51-yard eld-
goal attempt. A lateral. A
big lineman rumbling down
the sidelines, led by a ock
of his teammates.
When Kings Ron Garrett
motored down the right
sideline with no time left
on the clock in the second
quarter, cutting Albrights
lead to 14-10, everyone at
McCarthy Stadium knew
momentum was squarely
in the locker room of the
home Monarchs.
It stood there when play
resumed in the second half.
Albright College scored
21 points in the third quar-
ter, and racked up almost
300 yards of offense in the
second half en route to a
48-29 victory during home-
coming day at Kings.
The Lions improve to 2-2,
while Kings remains win-
less in 2013. The Monarchs
have lost seven of their last
eight homecoming games.
Its a tight game at that
point. We kind of changed
the tone at halftime from
what the heck are we doing
to here is what we are going
to do coming out, Albright
head coach John Marzka
said. For our kicker, that
was eld-goal range. He has
a 52-yarder already. You line
up to kick close to a school
record, and if you make it,
its huge. Even if you miss
it, oh well, because you
nished with the ball in
your hands. But to have
it blocked, and not tackle
the guy, we just gave away
the momentum. And I hate
doing that before halftime.
The blocked punt before
halftime was something
you see on the days top
plays. Tyler Struckus
busted through the line
and got his hands on the
kick. Anthony Martuccio
recovered the loose ball,
and took it nine yards. But
right before he was tackled,
he lateralled it back to the
6-foot-1, 247-pound defen-
sive end Garrett, who went
54 yards untouched for the
score.
A 14-3 decit, and pos-
sibly more if the eld goal
splits the uprights, was
trimmed in half.
But the Lions stole that
momentum in just ve min-
utes.
Kings quarterback Tyler
Hartranft was picked off
deep in his own territory on
the teams rst possession
of the second half, which
led to a four-play, 31-yard
Albright score when Ty
Hughes went off the right
side from 8 yards out.
Then on the Monarchs
next possession, Albrights
Chris Stephens broke
through the middle of a
slow-developing punt,
blocked the ball back to
the end zone and hopped
on the pigskin for another
score.
Just like that, Kings
was facing an uphill battle,
down 28-10.
Its 14 points in a heart-
beat. You cant do that
against a veteran team,
Kings head coach Jeff
Knarr said. They have 32
seniors, so theyve been
there and done that. They
held it steady. Its a learn-
ing experience for our kids
about execution and learn-
ing from the mistakes. I
think we played better
than we did last week, but
not good enough to get the
win.
Kings offense showed
signs of life. Quarterbacks
Hartranft and Tom Hehre
combined for 298 yards,
completing 14 of 28 passes.
Most of those went to
receiver Dan Kempa. The
junior receiver made a
spectacular tip-catch in the
third quarter, knocking the
ball up to himself after he
broke behind the secondary
and went 84 yards for the
score, trimming the lead to
28-17.
He reached the end zone
again in the fourth quarter
after Hehre hit himin stride
for a 55-yard touchdown.
The problem was
Albrights veteran offense
was equally as good.
Four-year starting quar-
terback TJ Luddy tossed
for 305 yards and three
scores, while two receiv-
ers Daniel McNair and
Devron Clark each had
more than 100 yards.
McNair just got one foot
down in the end zone on
a 5-yard catch that gave
Albright an 18-point lead
(41-23) with 8:48 left, pret-
ty much sealing the Lion
victory.
We did some good
things, Knarr said. We
tried to run the ball more
consistently, but then
again, when you fall behind,
it hurts you in that aspect.
Last week, we didnt make
big plays in the passing
game. This week, we did.
Overall, looking at it live,
we did OK on offense. But
we cant give short elds to
our defense because it puts
them in a bad spot.

there today.
Ciravolo, who hasnt fully
recovered after giving birth
just eight weeks ago, knew she
wouldnt be competition for
Orrson.
What Ciravolo probably didnt
know was that Orrson would be
running all alone out in front of
the entire eld leading both
males and females.
Orrson led a eld of 143 run-
ners to capture overall honors,
breaking the tape in 48 min-
utes and 32 seconds. She outran
second-place nisher, Scrantons
Paul Leonard 29 years older
than Orrson by 44 seconds.
I didnt have a plan, Orrson
said. I made a game-day deci-
sion this morning to run it. I
wanted to run the rst mile in
six minutes. I ran it in 5:55. That
was too quick. So I tried to run
a bit slower with consistency. I
didnt want to wear myself out.
Her strategy worked.
When asked if he tried to catch
Orrson, Leonard said, Yes, but
with no luck though.
While the younger runner got
the better of the older runner in
the 8.1-miler, the older guy got
the better of the younger guy in
the 5K Run.
Greg Bassham won top honors,
nishing in 19:33. The 54-year-
old from Mountain Top out-
ran second-place nisher Josh
Kaschenbach, 26, of Shavertown
by 1:07.
I ran in third place until we
reached the 1/4 mile marker,
said Bassham, who didnt start
running until he was 42. Thats
when I moved in front and
opened up a lead on him. But he
closed on me. He was breathing
down my neck. But I was able to
hold him off.
Suzanne Watts, 50, of
Phoenixville, won top female
honors, nishing in 23:11. Her
closest opponent was second-
place nisher Pat Adamshick, 57,
of Harveys Lake, who clocked in
at 26:52.
My husband and I used to run
in this race 10 years ago, Watts
said. Then they stopped hav-
ing this race. And we were dis-
appointed. Then I saw, on their
web site, they were having the
race again. So my husband and
I decided to make the trip here
and run it again. It a beautiful
lake.
Notes
In August, Orrson won the
Valleys Fastest Woman series,
a three-race event (Chase Mile
on the dirt track at Kirby Park,
Giants Despair Challenge a
1.1 mile uphill trek over the
famous car racing course in
Laurel Run, River Street Mile).
Orrson nished rst in all three
races.
Ciravolo has won the Wilkes-
Barre Triathlon three times.
Ciravolo also nished second to
Orrson in a 10K in Wilkes-Barre
in August.

King me: Mathis stars as GAR snaps skid
JOHN ERZAR
[email protected]
WILKES-BARRE
The king reigned Saturday
night, even on a pair of
wobbly legs.
Rashaun Mathis
went from pregame
Homecoming King to on-
eld playmaker as GAR
nally distanced itself from
Holy Redeemer for a 35-14
victory in a Wyoming
Valley Conference Division
2A-A game.
Mathis nished with
three interceptions, return-
ing one 70 yards for a
touchdown. He also ran for
two scores from the quar-
terback position, includ-
ing a 10-yard TD in the
Grenadiers 20-point out-
burst in the games nal
5:12.
That 10-yard TD run
with 1:37 to play also left
Mathis with cramps in
both calves and in extreme
pain.
Like a 12 on a scale of
1-10, he said.
The victory eased the
soreness somewhat. GAR
(1-4) snapped a ve-game
losing streak dating back
to last years District 2
Class 2A seminals.
Id rather have the vic-
tory, said Mathis, who
swapped his helmet for a
shiny blue crown after the
game. This crown, I dont
care too much for it.
GAR appeared primed to
pull away on its rst pos-
session of the third quarter.
The Grenadiers drove to
the Redeemer 1-yard line
when disaster struck. A
fumble landed in the back-
eld where Redeemer line-
backer Pat Villani scooped
it up. Villani lost the handle
after a few steps, and team-
mate Eric Kerr picked up
the ball and ran 77 yards
for a touchdown.
The two-point conver-
sion cut GARs lead to 15-8.
Redeemer (1-4) then
converted an interception
by Jason Hoggarth into
another touchdown in the
nal minute of the third
quarter. Jimmy Strickland
capped the eight-play drive
by escaping from the pass
rush to nd Hoggarth for
an 8-yard TD strike.
Redeemer, though,
couldnt get closer than
15-14. Nor could the
Royals make full amends
for a shaky rst half. They
turned over the ball three
times in their rst four
plays of the game. One
of them led to an 28-yard
interception return for a
touchdown by Rashaun
Jackson. In all, 22 of
GARs points came after
Redeemer turnovers.
We gave the game to
them, Redeemer coach
Pat Reece said. Cant
win a game with all those
turnovers in the rst
quarter. We fell apart at
the end. That last reverse
pass (Mathis TD) he was
wide open, but he threw it
to the inside and the free
safety got it. That was the
quick score we needed to
get it to 22-21.
GAR outgained
Redeemer 340-150, with
running back Rich Sickler
gaining 182 yards on 28
carries. The Grenadiers,
though, had ballhandling
issues as well. They fum-
bled six times, losing two,
and also had two passes
intercepted.
Our kids really battled
to the end, GAR coach
Paul Wiedlich Jr. said.
Our big thing was they
had to nish. The rst
four weeks were quite
frustrating because we
were so close.
Lakeland we were really
close. Dunmore we played
well for a half. Carbondale
we didnt show up. Last
week we improved against
Northwest and this week
were were able to nish a
game and get a victory.

position and raced
untouched into the
end zone for a game-
sealing touchdown
that provided the nal
score with 2:07 to play.
I just read the quarter-
backs eyes and made the
play, Harris shrugged.
Evidently, he has a knack
for doing that.
The 5-foot-11 senior
who began this season as
a safety but switched to
cornerback when starter
Tone Williams was injured
provided Williamsport
(2-3) with one of its few
bright spots in a loss last
week by also returning an
interception for a touch-
down.
And with just under 30
seconds remaining, Harris
grabbed another pick for
himself when he outleaped
a Dallas receiver for a des-
peration pass.
That brought an end to
what began as a promising
day for Dallas.
The winless
Mountaineers took their
rst lead of the season
when quarterback Justin
Mucha escaped a heavy
rush and scrambled 15
yards for a touchdown just
36 seconds before halftime.
And Dallas had a chance
for more points earlier in
the game, when Mucha
serving as a punt returner
- brought a kick back 29
yards to Williamsports
16-yard line. But three run-
ning plays produced just
one yard, and a 33-yard
eld goal attempt fell well
short.
As it turned out, so did
the Mountaineers bid for
their rst victory.
Williamsport running
back Isaac Foust charged
out of the second half, gain-
ing 56 yards on a 73-yard
march that ended when he
bolted into the end zone
on a game-tying 13-yard
touchdown run.
And at the end of the
third quarter, Williamsport
forged ahead when quarter-
back Dale Berkheimer
who was sacked four times
by a erce Dallas pass rush
found enough time to
hit receiver Jerah Reeves
with a 15-yard touchdown
toss 11 seconds before the
start of the fourth quarter.
And at the end of the
day, Harris wrapped
Williamsports victory up.
It felt great, Harris
said. Got a good win.
Were just going to keep
playing every week and
work as a team.

Deslauriers a stable presence for Pens
TOMVENESKY
[email protected]
HERSHEY After bouncing
around between the AHL and the
ECHL last season and suiting up
for four different teams, goaltender
Jeff Drouin-Deslauriers is hoping for
some stability inhis secondstint with
the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins.
As a hockey player you want
stability, but its a word that doesnt
seem very common for many of us,
Deslauriers said following Saturdays
6-1 loss to the Hershey Bears.
Still, Deslauriers has brought plen-
ty of stability to the Penguins pre-
season in the two games he played.
On Friday, he stopped all six shots
he faced during while in net for the
second half against the Rochester
Americans. Against the Bears on
Saturday, Deslauriers stopped 21-of-
23 shots in a period-and-a-half,
including some highlight reel saves.
His biggest saves on the night
came in the third period when he
stopped a one-timer from T.J. Syner
in front and a wrister from Chay
Genoway who was alone at the post.
Deslauriers attributed his success
in net to the Penguins system.
I know where the shots are going
to come from and what we will allow
and what were not going to give up,
he said. I had a couple breakdowns
that you have to address, but thats
part of the game. I have to take the
good and bring it for the next time I
get that call.
When and where that will be isnt
known, as Deslauriers is in camp on
a tryout basis. Still, for a player who
has bounced around between so
many teams over the last few years,
Deslauriers does have the advantage
of being in familiar territory. He
played in 40 games for Wilkes-Barre/
Scranton in 2006-07 and was very
familiar with what to expect with
playing a game in Hershey, where
more than 4,400 fans turned out for
an exhibition game.
Wilkes-Barre and Hershey have
a long history and you never come
here on a vacation. Its going to be a
tough, gritty game, he said. I won
here before and I knowI can win here
again.
And Deslauriers hopes it will be as
a member of the Penguins.
Notes
Despite the lopsided scored,
head coach John Hynes saw plenty
of positives in Saturdays 6-1 loss to
the Bears.
It was a good test for our team
and theres really a lot of positives,
he said. It wasnt the best team
game overall, but there were a lot of
good performances.
Adam Payerl scored the lone
goal for the Penguins in the rst peri-
od. Former Penguin David Marshall
had two goals and two assists for the
Bears.
Saturdays game featured
plenty of rough stuff. Chris Minella
dropped the gloves with Hersheys
David Marshall in a spirited second
period scrap. Later, Peter Merth and
Brandon Segal dropped the gloves
but never got going. In the third peri-
od rookie Cody Sylvester, who scored
the game-winning overtime goal for
the Penguins on Friday, dropped the
gloves with Garrett Mitchell and
held his own. Later in the game Scott
Zurevinski fought Hersheys Patrick
Wellar.
Andy Chiodo started the frst
half of Saturdays game and allowed
four goals on 13 shots.
The Penguins wrap up the
preseason tonight at 5:05 p.m. as
they host Hershey at the Mohegun
Sun Arena. Hynes said forward
Tom Kuhnhackl and defenseman
Brian Dumoulin could make their
rst appearances of the preseason.
D Harrison Ruopp and LW Bobby
Farnhamwont play, he said.
Hynes will have to choose
from four goaltenders as far as
who gets playing time tonight. In
addition to Eric Hartzell, Chiodo
and Deslauriers, netminder Peter
Mannino is ready to join the mix.
Mannino has been out with an injury
all of training camp but Hynes said
he is ready to return and could see
action tonight.

GREGBEACHAM
APSportsWriter
Hockey fans inDetroit and
Columbus have grown accus-
tomed to the inconvenience.
When the Red Wings and
Blue Jackets are on the road,
theyve usually had to stay
up well past most bedtimes
to watch, or wait until morn-
ing to nd out how their
teams did way out West.
With the NHLs rst sig-
nicant realignment in 15
years, everybody can sleep a
bit easier this fall.
Its denitely a lot better
for us for rest, economically
for our team, Columbus
center R.J. Umberger said.
It just makes a lot of sense.
The NHL is altering its
conference lineups, dropping
two divisions and changing
the makeup of its schedules
in both the regular season
and the playoffs.
The biggest change sends
Detroit and Columbus to the
16-teamEasternConference,
while the Winnipeg Jets
head to the 14-team West.
Those uneven numbers are
the subject of some concern,
but theres no doubt they add
up splendidly for the three
teams on the move.
I think the travel some-
times takes years off all our
lives, Detroit goalie Jimmy
Howard said. I think (mov-
ing East) will be great for us
from the travel, even though
were all used to it now. It
will be a lot of fun to play a
lot of games in the Eastern
time zone. It will be great for
our fans, too, not having to
stay up until all hours of the
night to watch us.
The moves are the culmi-
nation of years of debate and
maneuvering. Detroit, which
has been in the Western
(originally Campbell)
Conference since 1981,
has desired a return to the
East for years. Columbus,
an expansion team in 2000,
also jumped at the chance to
shorten its list of road games
starting at 10 p.m. or later
back home.
The Red Wings are join-
ing the recongured Atlantic
Division along with fel-
low Original Six franchises
Toronto, Montreal, Boston
and, in the quirkiest part
of the realignment, Florida
and Tampa Bay. Columbus
is in the cleverly named
Metropolitan Division along-
side Pittsburgh, Philadelphia
and the three NewYork City-
area teams.
Its going to be great for
our fan base to be able to see
us play in the Eastern time
zone a lot more, Umberger
said. All of our away games
used to be in different time
zones. For us, a chance to
grow some close rivalries
with different teams like
Buffalo and Pittsburgh,
maintain Detroit, I think
were just excited.
Winnipeg, the erstwhile
Atlanta Thrashers, will no
longer spend the bulk of its
road time in the American
South. The Jets are grateful
to be in the Central Division
with Minnesota, Chicago
and the rest of the NHLs
Midwestern teams.
Its too soon to tell wheth-
er Detroit, Columbus and
Winnipeg will gain a sig-
nicant competitive advan-
tage from the switch. The
Red Wings werent exactly
struggling to win while
making the playoffs in each
of the past 22 seasons out
West, while the Blue Jackets
wouldnt suggest the only
reason theyve never won a
playoff game was all those
road games in Phoenix.
I think its a great time for
our fans, Red Wings defen-
seman Niklas Kronwall said.
Theyll be able to watch our
games in prime time a lot
more than they have. Playing
Montreal, Toronto, Boston
more often, Im hoping its
going to spark that (excite-
ment) even more. I know it
will for us.
But the three moves are
just part of a competitive
restructuring that will affect
every NHL team.
The league is back to a
four-division format, drop-
ping the six-division setup
introduced in 1998. The
NHL also went back to a ver-
sion of the divisional playoff
schedule used from 1982
until 1994.
The top three teams in
each division get postseason
berths, and two wild-card
spots go to the two remain-
ing teams with the best
records in either division.
The rst two rounds of the
conference playoffs will be
within the division, which
means the last wild-card
team could be required to
face the teams on the other
side of the conference for a
spot in the conference nals.
I love the four-division
format, said Anaheimcoach
Bruce Boudreau, whose
Ducks won the Pacic last
season. I really think for the
fan, its easy to understand. It
keeps more teams involved,
and with the crossover, if
youre in a stronger division
than others, youre not nec-
essarily done, because you
can always move to the other
division.
The NHL Players
Association initially
objected to the uneven
conferences, saying it
would be tougher to make
the playoffs with two more
teams in the East. The
union dropped the objec-
tion after the lockout.
This going to the East
in the new divisional con-
cept, its going to be a dif-
cult time for any of these
teams to make the play-
offs, said John Davidson,
the Blue Jackets director
of hockey operations. Its
going to be a real battle.
We have to understand
that. I think we do.
The schedule matrix also
has been tweaked after
several years of empha-
sis on divisional rivalries.
Every team in the league
faces everybody else twice
this season, giving fans in
every city a chance to see
every star.
If I was sitting in the
stands, I would tend to
think that Id like to see the
Ovechkins come into my
building and the Crosbys
come into my building,
Boudreau said.

it had much to do with the game.
You cant leave balls in up the
zone in this ballpark against that
lineup and get away with it.
Prospect Andrew Lambo hit his
rst homer off Logan Ondrusek,
the rst time the Pirates had six
in a game since Aug. 22, 2007 at
Colorado.
Pirates starter Charlie Morton
also struggled, leaving with one out
and the bases loaded in the fth. Vin
Mazzaro (8-2) fanned Zack Cozart
and retired Ryan Hanigan on a y
ball as the slumping Reds left the
bases loaded for the second time in
the game.
Cincinnati stranded 11 runners
overall.
Both teams already had clinched
wild-card berths heading into their
weekend series. Whoever took it
would host the one-game showdown.
Pittsburgh made quick work of it,
winning the opener 4-1 on Friday
night and then the second game, too.
Better to be home than on the
road, McCutchen said. Today
showed how bad we wanted to go
home. We answered in a big way.
The Ohio River rivals have met
ve times in the playoffs 1970,
1972, 1975, 1979 and 1990, when
the Reds won their last World Series
title. The Reds are 13-7 against the
Pirates in the postseason. Pittsburgh
has played the Reds more than any
other team in the playoffs.
The Reds have gone into a deep
slump at a very bad time. Theyve
lost four in a row since clinching a
playoff spot with a 3-2 win over the
Mets on Monday night, scoring a
total of six runs.
They were at it again in the rst
inning on Saturday, leaving the
bases loaded when Todd Frazier
ied out.
Walker and McCutchen hit back-
to-back homers in the third for a
2-0 lead. Brandon Phillips had an
RBI single and Jay Bruce followed
with a two-run double for a 3-2 lead
in the third, Cincinnatis rst lead
since Monday.
And it didnt last long.
Alvarez led off the fourth inning
with a rst-pitch homer, tying it at
3. Alvarezs 36th homer gave him
100 RBIs. Walker hit his career-
high 16th homer in the fth inning
the rst multihomer game of his
career and Byrds two-run shot
ended Arroyos outing. Walker has
seven homers in September.
Lambos pinch-hit homer let the
Pirates tie the record for most by
a visiting team at Great American
Ball Park, which opened in 2003.

Brewers down Mets in 10th
The Associated Press
NEW YORK Carlos
Gomez homered and had
four hits, including a tie-
breaking single in the
10th inning that sent the
Milwaukee Brewers to a 4-2
victory over the New York
Mets on Saturday.
Yuniesky Betancourt
drove in two runs to help
the Brewers (74-87) win
their fourth straight as they
put together a strong nish
to a disappointing season.
Milwaukee has won the
rst three in a four-game
set at Citi Field all by
the same score to give
the club ve victories in its
nal seven series.
Despite their punchless
nish, the Mets are poised
to retain manager Terry
Collins.
Three people with
knowledge of the situation
told The Associated Press
that Collins is close to an
agreement to return. The
people spoke on condition
of anonymity because the
deal had not been nalized
and no announcement had
been made. Collins current
contract expires after this
season, his third in charge
of the Mets.
Cardinals 6, Cubs 2
ST. LOUIS Adam
Wainwright earned his
19th victory in a tuneup
for the NL division series
opener and Matt Holliday
homered again as the St.
Louis Cardinals showed
no letup after clinching the
NL Central, beating the
Chicago Cubs.
Holliday homered for the
second straight day and
Yadier Molina drove in two
runs for St. Louis (96-65),
which entered the day tied
with Atlanta for the NL
lead in wins. The Cardinals
have won ve in a row.
Wainwright (19-9)
allowed two hits in shut-
out 5 1-3 innings and tied
for the league lead in vic-
tories with Washingtons
Jordan Zimmermann, who
lost his last scheduled start
Wednesday in St. Louis.
Seth Maness earned his
rst career save by getting
Darwin Barney on a dou-
ble-play ball.
Edwin Jackson (8-18)
leads the majors in losses.
Padres 9, Giants 3
SAN FRANCISCO
Jesus Guzman, Chris
Denora and Jedd Gyorko
each homered and drove
in two runs and the San
Diego Padres beat the San
Francisco Giants.
Hunter Pence, who
reached a tentative agree-
ment on a $90 million,
ve-year contract before
the game, hit a two-run
homer for the Giants. San
Francisco had won three in
a row.
Eric Stults (11-13)
pitched seven effective
innings to win his third
straight start after going
0-6 in his previous 10 starts.

Indians open AL wild-card
lead over Tampa, Texas
The Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS The
Cleveland Indians moved
into the AL wild-card lead
on the next-to-last sched-
uled day of the regular sea-
son, beating the Minnesota
Twins 5-1 Saturday behind
Scott Kazmirs strong start
to extend their winning
streak to nine.
Seeking their rst post-
season appearance since
2007, the Indians (91-70)
took a one-game lead over
Tampa Bay and Texas
(both 90-71), who both lost
Saturday.
Cleveland is assured of at
least a tie for the AL wild
card. With three teams
seeking the two wild cards,
Sundays results could
decide the matter or lead
to one or two tiebreaker
games at the start of next
week.
Blue Jays 7, Rays 2
TORONTO The
Tampa Bay Rays dropped
into a tie with Texas for the
second AL wild-card berth,
losing to Toronto as Ryan
Goins and Kevin Pillar hit
two-run home runs for the
Blue Jays and J.A. Happ
won for the rst time in
four starts.
The Rays (90-71) lost
their second straight fol-
lowing a seven-game win-
ning streak and dropped a
half-game behind Cleveland
(90-70), which was playing
at Minnesota. The regu-
lar season is slated to end
Sunday.
Adam Lind had two hits
and three RBIs and Brett
Lawrie reached base four
times as the Blue Jays con-
tinued to make life tough
for the Rays, who start
left-hander Matt Moore

Rangers 7, Angels 4
ARLINGTON, Texas
Craig Gentry doubled,
scored and bunted in a run,
helping the Texas Rangers
beat the sloppy Los Angeles
Angels and reach the nal
day of the regular season
with a chance to make the
playoffs for the fourth year
in a row.
Texas (90-71) won its
sixth straight and sec-
ond in less than 24 hours.
Cleveland and Tampa Bay
started the day tied for the
two AL wild-card spots at
90-70, a game ahead of the
Rangers.
The Rangers were down
three batters in, but the
Angels made ve errors for
a game for the rst time
since Sept. 16, 2006, also
at Texas.
Mariners 7, Athletics 5
SEATTLE Brad
Miller hit a pair of home
runs, including his rst
grand slam, and the Seattle
Mariners beat the Oakland
Athletics in a game that
decided division-series
matchups in the American
League.
Boston clinched home-
eld advantage through-
out the postseason with
Oaklands loss. The AL
West champion As will
play their playoff opener at
home next Friday against
AL Central champion
Detroit, and AL East win-
ner Boston will start at
Fenway Park against the
team emerging from the
wild-card playoff: Cleveland
Tampa Bay or Texas.
Brandon Maurer (5-8)
gave up two runs and six
hits in 5 1-3 innings. He
had been 0-1 in three starts
and three relief appearanc-
es since beating the As on
Aug. 20.
Rivera done, A-Rod just
starting
HOUSTON Mariano
Rivera says he wont pitch
again before retiring on
Sunday.
When asked if hed pitch
in either of the two games
the New York Yankees
have remaining against
the Houston Astros, the
43-year-old closer said:
Im done guys, Im done.
Rivera last pitched on
Thursday night in the
season nale at Yankee
Stadium. He made a tear-
ful exit to a standing ova-
tion when Derek Jeter and
Andy Pettitte came from
the dugout to remove him
with two outs in the ninth
inning of a loss to Tampa
Bay.
Rivera had expressed
interest in playing cen-
ter eld earlier this week.
But on Saturday he had a
change of heart, saying
that he didnt think his
knee was up to it.
And Alex Rodriguez says
dealing with his 211-game
suspension stemming from
baseballs Biogenesis drug
investigation has been a
big burden and adds
hes ready to face it head
on when the arbitration
hearing on his grievancel
begins Monday.
Rodriguez is with the
New York Yankees in
Houston this weekend,
though he doesnt expect
to play again this season
because of soreness in his
legs.
He says hes excited to
get the hearing started and
that he plans to be there
every day because: Im
ghting for my life and my
whole legacy.
Rodriguez was sus-
pended by MLB the day he
returned from hip surgery
on Aug. 5.
The 38-year-old is hit-
ting .244 with seven hom-
ers and 19 RBIs in 44
games this season and is
six homers shy of tying
Willie Mays 660 for fourth
place.

See any buck rubs yet? They should soon start
appearing as bucks have lost their velvet and will
look to polish their antlers by shredding a tree.
Actually, the real reason why bucks rub their antlers
on trees is territorial. And yes, most of the time the
bigger the rub means it was likely made by a large
buck.
Before bucks start rubbing, however, their ant-
lers are coated with a blood-rich velvet covering. It
protects and nourishes the developing antlers dur-
ing the summer months. The following pictures are
great examples of what a velvet buck looks like. I
wonder how big the rubs will be when these bucks
get their antlers on a tree this fall?
Barbara Wilson (bottom right) captured a picture
that almost looks like a painting with wildowers in

the image on July 31 in Hanover Township as the

Rick Pavloskis trail camera (bottom left) caught
this large 8-point on a foggy morning on Game
Lands in Luzerne County last September. It likely
wasnt long before this bucks velvet began to dry
and shed.
Alex Gulitusz (top left) caught these two nice
bucks on his trail camera in Luzerne County in early
August. Bucks often pair up during the summer
months before going their own way in the fall.
Finally, Bobby Jordan Sr. (top right) has a trail
cam in Wyoming County and hell only identify the
location as his secret spot. After taking a look at
this large 9-point from August, its easy to under-
stand why Jordan wants to keep this spot to himself.

Pa. Game
Commission
meeting
roundup
The Pennsylvania Board of
Game Commissioners is consid-
ering a proposal to remove the
bald eagle from the states list of
threatened species, and theres
an opportunity for the public to
weigh in on the matter.
The board voted Tuesday to
open a period of public review
for a proposal to upgrade the bald
eagles status from threatened
to protected in Pennsylvania.
The board still would need to vote
once more before a change in sta-
tus would occur, and the commis-
sioners will take public comments
into consideration before making
their decision.
Tuesdays vote puts the propos-
al on a timeline to be approved as
early as January.
Criteria for removing the bald
eagle from the states threatened
species list are laid out in the
Game Commissions bald eagle
management plan. The plan calls
for delisting eagles as threatened
if four criteria are met for ve
consecutive years. There must
be at least 150 active nests state-
wide; successful pairs in at least
40 counties; at least a 60 percent
success rate of known nests; and
productivity of at least 1.2 eaglets
edged per successful nest.
Three of those criteria already
have been met for a ve-year span,
and eagles in 2013 will exceed for
a fth-straight year the require-
ment of nesting successfully in at
least 40 counties.
If the bald eagle is delisted, the
bird will continue to be protected
under the federal Bald and Golden
Eagle Protection Act (the Eagle
Act), the Migratory Bird Treaty
Act, and the Lacey Act. Under
the Eagle Act, those who harm
or disturb eagles are subject to
a civil penalty of up to one year
in jail or a $5,000 ne for their
rst offense, and criminal convic-
tions can result in nes as high as
$250,000.
Additionally, state penal-
ties for disturbing protected
wildlife include nes of up to
$1,500 and bolster protection for
Pennsylvania eagles.
Those wishing to submit
comments on the proposal to
remove the bald eagle from
the states threatened species
list may send them by email to
[email protected], or
via U.S. mail to the Pennsylvania
Game Commission, Attn. Bald
Eagle Comments, 2001 Elmerton
Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 17110-
9797.
Energy leases approved
Also Tuesday, the board
approved a number of leases
with energy companies that
will result in more than $9 mil-
lion in initial revenue, and a yet
unknown amount of royalties.

Theres no denying that
when the Pennsylvania Game
Commission approved the
use of crossbows during the
archery season in 2009, it ben-
efited hunters.
Depending on the skill level
of the shooter, crossbows
exceed compound, recurve
and longbows when it comes
to accuracy and speed. Unlike
their traditional archery
counterparts, corssbows can
be pre-drawn which reduces
fatigue and are shouldered and
aimed like a rifle.
But can crossbow use in
archery season become too
much of a good thing?
Thats a concern that is on
the mind Jay Delaney, who rep-
resents the northeast region
on the PGC board of commis-
sioners. Delaney points to the
spike in the archery harvest
after crossbows were legalized
for all hunters in 2009. Prior
to then crossbows could only
be used by hunters possessing
a disabled permit or hunters
in three Wildlife Management
Units in the Philadelphia and
Pittsburgh areas.
Since they were allowed
statewide, the archery harvest
has increased by more than
25,000 since 2008 the last
year crossbows were prohib-
ited. The number of archery
hunters has also increased
over the same span a hike
of 37,000 since 2008.
A crossbow is a different
hunting tool, Delaney said.
And we now have more hunt-
ers taking more deer during
the archery season.
Specifically, Delaney is the
use of crossbows is resulting
in too many bucks being taken
in the archery season before
they have a chance to breed.
Its an issue that Delaney said
affects rifle hunters and those
who hunt with flintlocks and
muzzleloaders.
For the 2012-13 season,
the antlered deer harvest
was 42,220, an increase of
almost 11,000 since 2008. The
archery harvest for bucks has
increased every season since
crossbows became legal state-
wide, and last year crossbows
accounted for 48 percent of
the overall archey harvest,
according to PGC figures.
The number of bucks har-
vested in archery season con-
tinues to go up, and when the
rifle hunters arent seeing the
bucks thats one reason why,
Delaney said. We have to bal-
ance things for rifle, archery,
muzzleloader and flintlock
hunters. One thing we need
to continue to watch is when
does it become too much?
The answer is now, accord-
ing to Ed Krystofosky, owner
of The Archery Zone in
Larksville. Since crossbows
became legal for archery sea-
son almost four years ago,
Krystofosky said he has sold
more in his store each year.
It stunned me, he said.
Almost every store has seen
an increase.
Krystofosky, who is an avid
archery hunter and uses a
recurve bow, said longtime
archery hunters didnt neces-
sarily shift to using crossbows.
The hike in sales is the result
of another group of hunters.
Its mainly those who
never hunted archery before
are the ones now getting into
it. Theyre using crossbows
because its easier. Its basically
a modified gun, Krystofosky
said.
To me, a crossbow is defi-
nitely a more efficient way to
kill.
In addition to their accuracy,
Krystofosky said crossbows
hold an advantage over regu-
lar bows in that the string can
be pulled back and locked in
place, ready to shoot.
With a regular bow, if a big
buck sees you draw back, its
gone. All you have to do with
a crossbow is raise it to your
shoulder, he said.
While the increase in the
archery deer harvest signals
a hike in archery hunters,
Delaney said its a good thing
that more people are out hunt-
ing.
But there may also be a
downside, he cautioned.
Are we taking too many
pre-rut bucks? he said.
Our Bureau of Wildlife
Management is monitoring
this, and they havent brought
anything to the board yet.
PGC spokesman Travis
Lau said theres no specific
Cause for concern?

number that the agency
watches to determine if
the harvest is too large
but changes would be
recommended if the
monitoring turned up any
biological impacts on the
deer herd.
In general, we dont
really see hunting with
crossbows as being dif-
ferent than hunting with
other sporting arms, Lau
said. The antlerless har-
vest largely is controlled
through allocation, so
whether a doe tag is filled
with a bow, rifle or cross-
bow really doesnt mat-
ter from a management
standpoint.
The buck harvest
more directly, the per-
centage of the buck har-
vest coming from cross-
bows probably would
be more likely to influ-
ence a recommendation.
But at this point, with
crossbows accounting for
about 15 percent of the
total buck harvest, its
nowhere near any level of
concern.
While the archery har-
vest has increased since
2009, the more telling
factor behind the impact
of crossbows may be the
recovery rate.
Sweet Valley resident
Chris Denmon, who is
an avid archery hunter
and president of the
North Mountain Branch
of the Quality Deer
Management Association,
believes crossbows have
improved hunters effi-
ciency and, as a result,
reduced the amount of
deer that are hit and not
recovered.
When it comes to
archery, Denmon said,
some hunters dont log
as much practice time as
they should and are more
prone to making a poor
shot. Many times that
animal isnt recovered,
he said, and thus its not
reflected in the harvest
report.
With a crossbow, there
is a better chance of that
same hunter making a
good, ethical shot and
recovering that deer,
Denmon said. I believe
the recovery rate has
improved with cross-
bows. The accuracy is
better even with less
practice than is needed to
hunt with a bow.
Since crossbows
became legal for all hunt-
ers in 2009, the sale of
resident archery licenses
has increased every year.
The first year crossbows
were permitted archery
license sales jumped by
more than 14,000 the
year before. In 2012,
there were 37,000 more
archery licenses sold than
in 2008.
As far as crossbows
swelling the ranks of
archery hunters, Denmon
doesnt believe that will
have a significant impact
on the overall antlered
deer harvest. If a cross-
bow hunter didnt harvest
a buck during the archery
season, he will likely be
out there hunting again
in the rifle deer season,
he said.
Denmon has taken
plenty of bucks with
a compound bow but
switched to a crossbow in
2009. He hasnt thought
about going back to a
compound bow.
Still, Denmon cau-
tioned that crossbows do
have their limitations.
There is a misconcep-
tion out there as to their
capabilities, he said.
Theyre not a whole
lot faster than a tradi-
tional bow and you still
shouldnt take a longer
shot with a crossbow that
you wouldnt take with a
regular bow.

Crossbows
The statewide archery
deer season opens on
Oct. 5 and continues to
Nov. 16. The late season
runs fromDec. 26to
Jan. 11. In addition to
crossbows, hunters can
use compound, recurve
and longbows.
While the permitted use of crossbows may have
brought more hunters into the woods for the fall
archery season, its not the only factor leading to
what some consider are crowded conditions.
Ed Krystofosky, who hunts with a recurve bow, said
archers have to share the woods with those hunting
small game, turkey along with early antlerless
muzzleloader season and junior and senior hunters
out for the early antlerless rifle season.
Now youre putting rifles out there and Im
hunting with a stick and a string, Krystofosky said. I
have nothing against them being out there hunting.
My gripe is putting all these seasons together in one
big group. They should at least separate the more
advanced weapons like rifles, muzzleloaders and
crossbows and put them together.
Chris Denmon, who has hunted the archery season
with both traditional bows and crossbows, said the
conglomerate of seasons in the fall has actually
reduced hunting pressure.
Hunters are more spread out as opposed to those
intense, short seasons where everybody tries to get
out all at once, he said. I hunt mainly on private
land, so its never really been a factor for me.

ST. PAUL, Minn. The Big
Ten is ready to take the ice.
The venerable conference built
by storied football programs is
about to start its rst sanctioned
hockey season.
Big Ten anything is a big deal,
no matter what sport it is, and its
an honor to be a part of such a
prestigious league, said Penn
State junior forward Tommy
Olczyk.
Coaches and key players
from all six teams assembled on
Thursday at Xcel Energy Center,
the site of the inaugural confer-
ence tournament from March
20-22. That event will alternate
between St. Paul and Joe Louis
Arena in Detroit in the coming
years.
The Big Ten formation shook
up the sport at the major college
level, resulting in the creation
of a second league (National
Collegiate Hockey Conference),
the dilution of one (Western
Collegiate Hockey Association)
and the extinction of another
(Central Collegiate Hockey
Association). But the coaches
and players were naturally buzz-
ing with excitement about the
newsetup, rather than lamenting
the loss of some long-running
conference rivalries.
There is a little trepidation
with some of the fans at times,
but I do believe that theyre
going to see were going to have
at Minnesota the best of both
worlds, Gophers coach Don
Lucia said. Were part of the Big
Ten. Well continue to play our
in-state rivals, a lot of our former
rivals fromthe WCHAover time,
and I think its going to be a very
successful move for us in our pro-
gram.
Lucia added: After a few
years, it becomes the new norm.
Fans start to see the way the con-
ferences are, and all of a sudden,
you dont know any different.
MichigancoachRedBerenson,
who played for the Wolverines in
the late 1950s when they were
in the WCHA with the Gophers,
recalled a erce rivalry with the
potential for a modern renewal.
Whenever we played
Minnesota you could tell just
fromthe fans it was like a Stanley
Cup game, and Im hoping thats
what we get back into this confer-
ence, Berenson said.
The leagues rst ofcial game
will be onOct. 10whenMichigan
hosts Boston College, and the
Big Ten Network is planning to
show Friday night doublehead-
ers throughout the winter, the
hallmark of the enhanced brand
these programs are anticipat-
ing. Michigan, Michigan State
and Ohio State came from the
CCHA, and Minnesota and
Wisconsin left the WCHA. Penn
State, which played as an inde-
pendent in its inaugural season
in the sport, is the upstart under-
dog.
If we recruited you to come
to Penn State, we believe youre
someone hungry to accept that
challenge, coach Guy Gadowsky
said. We dont know. Trust me,
were not naive. We understand
very well howgreat the programs
are in the Big Ten Conference.
With the visibility of the Big
Ten Network, theres not much
doubt about this six-team league
becoming a nancial success,
even if purist fans will take a
while to get over the change.
Theres an anxiety shared around
the sport, though, about the via-
bility of the lower-prole leagues,
particularly the new-look
WCHA now lled with schools
that play in Division II in other
sports. Programs used to host-
ing Minnesota in WCHA games
or Michigan in CCHA contests
could have a harder time selling
tickets and recruits.
Michigan State coach Tom
Anastos formerly served as
CCHA commissioner, so he felt
the loss as hard as anyone.
Its not bittersweet. Im over
it, Anastos said. What Im
happy about is the CCHA had a
very nice run. All the programs
have found a home, and I think
the Big Ten opportunity is very
exciting, both for our member
schools and I think for college
hockey. So I think there is a lot of
good stuff in store.
The collective hope for the
future is that other schools will
follow Penn States lead and add
hockey as a varsity sport rather
than pull the plug on a ounder-
ing program.
Expansion is always good
because theres a ton of youth
hockey players out there who
have a dream of playing college
hockey, Wisconsin defenseman
Frankie Simonelli said.
The NCHC took North
Dakota, Denver, Colorado
College, Minnesota Duluth,
St. Cloud State and Nebraska
Omaha from the rest of the
WCHA core and added Miami
and Western Michigan from the
CCHA. But despite the reach of
the Big Ten Network and the tra-
dition and size of those schools,
the NCHC hasnt inched.
The Big Ten really hasnt
out-recruited our league at all,
Nebraska Omaha coach Dean
Blais said at Target Center in
Minneapolis, where the NCHC
held its preseason media session
at the site of its conference tour-
nament. One consistent thing
is that were going to be down
here at the Target Center every
year. Minnesota and Wisconsin
are going to be moving back and
forth from the Xcel every other
year. So were going to get a lot of
Minnesota fans over here when
they go to the Joe.
Said North Dakota coach Dave
Hakstol: I have no interest in
trying to be what somebody else
is. Were going to stay very deep-
ly rooted in the tradition of what
our program is, recruit to that
tradition and continue to be very
strong in the areas where weve
traditionally been strong.

Most of the lease agreements
result fromrequests by companies
that have strong leaseholds in the
surroundingareas, andalready are
in possession of the energy rights
on Game Commission properties.
The agreements ensure the fuels
are extracted with little to no sur-
face impacts on game lands.
Bat declines tobe considered
The board said Tuesday it will
be looking closely at what the
Game Commission might do to
help bat populations, which have
been in decline due to White-
Nose Syndrome (WNS).
White-Nose Syndrome is
caused by a fungus and affects
hibernating bats. The fungus,
which is white in color, accumu-
lates on the bats noses and wings,
and causes the bats to arouse
often during hibernation, leading
them to burn up crucial energy
reserves. Most of the bats aficted
with White-Nose Syndrome end
up dying, and the decline among
bat populations has been sharp.
The commissioners said any
actions they might take to help
bats need to be taken soon,
or the impact of WNS on bats
might be too severe.
I dont want to sit here in
two or three years and say its
too bad we didnt do anything,
Commissioner David Putnam
said.
The board said it would be
discussing the matter further
at its December working group
meeting.
PGC to get moving on quail man-
agement
The Pennsylvania Board of
Game Commissioners hope to
jumpstart the states quail man-
agement efforts, and it took action
toward that end.
The board formed a commit-
tee to oversee implementation
of the Game Commissions quail-
management plan, which includes
an initial survey to identify quail
habitat and determine how many
wild quail live in Pennsylvania.
Additionally, the board amend-
ed a nearly $3.9 million lease
agreement for oil and gas rights
to route $250,000 to wildlife man-
agement resources, specically
for the management of the north-
ern bobwhite quail.
Commissioner Jay Delaney of
Wilkes-Barre made the motion
to amend the lease, and it was
seconded by Commissioner
Brian Hoover, then approved
by a 5-2 vote. Commissioners
Ralph Martone and Charles Fox
voted against the measure, and
Commissioner Ronald Weaner
was absent.
Delaney said the Game
Commission should place pri-
ority on efforts to manage
bobwhite quail, since most
reports indicate the species is
in decline, and perhaps could
be considered endangered.
The commissioners said the
additional funding would help
in providing resources for quail
management.
Bobcat, river otter plans to be
released
The board voted to release to
the public newly-drafted manage-
ment plans for bobcats and river
otters in Pennsylvania.
The plans will be available on
the Game Commissions web-
site, www.pgc.state.pa.us, within
the next week, and there will be
a 60-day period for the public to
review the plans and submit com-
ments to the Game Commission.
The Board of Game
Commissioners will take all com-
ments into consideration when
casting future votes on the plans.
The Game Commission will
issue a news release when the
plans are available online.
Campfires on Game Lands limited
The Pennsylvania Game
Commission doesnt have a
problem with many of the small,
open campres set and main-
tained on state game lands.
Historically, hunters, trap-
pers, anglers and Appalachian
Trail through-hikers using state
game lands have been permitted
to use open res for cooking or
warming purposes.
Recently, however, theres been
an increase of open res at game
lands that have nothing to do with
the intended uses of game lands.
And to address that problem, the
Game Commission is putting lim-
its in place to regulate who can set
and maintain res at game lands.
Under the change, persons
setting campres on game lands
must possess a valid hunting,
furtaking or shing license,
or be through-hiking on the
Appalachian Trail. Precautions
must be taken to prevent the
spread of the re, and the res
must be attended at all times and
extinguished completely before
the site is vacated.
Fires will not be permitted at
times when the re index rating
used by the state Department
of Conservation and Natural
Resources is high, very high, or
extreme in that area.
A person causing a wildre,
in addition to facing possible
criminal penalties, is liable for
damages and the cost of extin-
guishing the re.

Meeting
Kobe
uncertain
when hell
return
GREG BEACHAM
AP Sports Writer
EL SEGUNDO, Calif.
Kobe Bryant stepped off a
flight from Dubai and showed
up at the Los Angeles Lakers
training complex Saturday,
joining his teammates for the
first morning of training camp.
Although Bryant is globe-
trotting comfortably on his
surgically repaired Achilles
tendon, hes still uncertain
when hell join the Lakers on
their practice court as they
begin their return from a huge-
ly disappointing season for the
16-time champion franchise.
I feel good, Bryant said.
I dont think we have a par-
ticular timetable as to where
I should be right now, but Im
feeling good.
Kobe is more certain about
a few other things: Hell come
back strong from his injury,
and the Lakers can contend
for another title even without
Dwight Howard.
Our expectations are
always the same going into
every single season, Bryant
said. Improve every single
game with the goal in mind
of winning the championship.
Doesnt matter what anybody
else is saying. Thats the goal
that we have.
After an offseason that
began in mid-April when he
tore his tendon in a game
against Golden State, Bryant
likely is still a long way from
stepping on the practice
court. Yet nobody around the
Lakers is willing to predict any
timetable for an athlete with
almost supernatural recupera-
tive powers.
The fourth-leading scorer
in NBA history is running on
a special treadmill and doing
some court drills, but still isnt
sprinting or playing basket-
ball. Bryant knows he might
not be ready for opening night
Oct. 29, but hes not willing to
concede anything in his latest
comeback.
My goal is to play tonight,
you knowwhat I mean? Bryant
asked. Its about being smart
about it and pacing it the right
way and just seeing how it
does. I ts really just a strength
thing now. Im just seeing how
it holds up, and then how the
recovery holds up after that.
Bife refuses to count himself out
DAN GELSTON
AP Sports Writer
DOVER, Del. Matt
Kenseth has Chase perfection.
Kyle Busch nailed the runner-
up nishes. And no driver can
touch the championship pedi-
gree of Jimmie Johnson.
Led by Kenseth, the top
three drivers in the Chase for
the Sprint Cup championship
standings have started to sepa-
rate themselves from the rest
of the eld with eight races
remaining.
But is the list of contenders
set? Have only three drivers
out of the 13-car eld really
emerged as the favorites to win
the championship?
Not so fast.
Carl Edwards is lurking in
fourth, and Greg Bife and
Kevin Harvick have certainly
stamped themselves as drivers
who can win races and wrest
the top spot away from Kenseth.
I cant imagine with eight
races to go that somebody
would be willing to say, Oh,
this is a three-man race, Bife
said.
As the Chase shifts Sunday
to Dover, the eld knows time
is running short to widen the
list of contenders. Theyll need
that perfect blend of strong n-
ishes and the hope that Kenseth
blows an engine or Busch and
Johnson wreck. Anything that
takes the top drivers out of the
checkered ag chase.
Kenseth, who has a series-
high seven wins, leads Busch
by 14 points and Johnson by
18. Edwards (36 back), Bife
(38), and Harvick (39) are still
in the mix.
Kurt Busch, Jeff Gordon,
Ryan Newman, Clint Bowyer,
Dale Earnhardt Jr., Joey
Logano and Kasey Kahne
round out the eld. For some
perspective, Kahne is 71 points
behind Kenseth, more than a
full race behind the leader.
I wouldnt be the one putting
my name on the line to say there
are only three cars in this hunt
right now, Bife said. I wasnt
necessarily saying that for the
16 team. I wasnt making the
case that its not a three-man
race because of us. I wouldnt
count out Carl Edwards or any
of those other guys that are
right there in the hunt.
Bife, who was third last
week at New Hampshire,
knows as well as any driver
that a championship isnt won
in the rst two races. He was
the rst driver in Chase his-
tory to win the rst two races
(2008) of the 10-race playoff
and he followed with a third in
Kansas.
A strong showing, just
not stout enough to hold off
Johnson for the champion-
ship. Bife had four nishes
of 10th or worse and nished
third in the nal standings.

Loganos Dover win streak reaches four
DANGELSTON
APSportsWriter
DOVER, Del. His chase for
a Cup championship all but over,
Joey Logano turned his pursuit
toward Dover history.
Logano dominated at Dover
International Speedway once
more and took the checkered ag
in the tracks Nationwide Series
race for the fourth straight time.
Logano became the rst driver to
win four straight races at Dover in
NASCARs second-tier series.
He pulled away in the No. 22
Ford down the stretch Saturday
and was never seriously chal-
lenged for the win on the mile
track.
Its been my favorite race track
ever since I started here, he said.
With good reason. Logano has
swept the two Dover races the last
two seasons.
Logano, who started on the
pole and led 106 laps, won for
the third time this season. Four
drivers have won 11 times in the
No. 22 Ford, all with crew chief
Jeremy Bullins. Brad Keselowski,
AJ Allmendinger and Ryan Blaney
have all won in the No. 22.
There were a lot of streaks to
be kept alive today and we man-
aged to pull that off, Bullins said.
Kyle Larson was second, fol-
lowed by Kevin Harvick, Brian
Vickers and Elliott Sadler.
Sam Hornish Jr. was 17th and
had his points lead shrink to four
over Austin Dillon with ve races
left
If we could have lived up to our
potential today, I would feel a lot
better about it, Hornish said. We
go to some tracks that I really like.
Theres not a place that I dont like
that were going to go, so Imreally
excited about what weve got.
For all his Saturday success,
Logano has yet to transfer those
regular wins to the Sprint Cup
series. He has had only one top-
ve nish in nine career Cup
starts at Dover.
He blamed a string of bad
luck that derailed his Dover Cup
races.
Ive had a lot of fast race cars
here there were capable of run-
ning top ves, he said. Ive had
loose wheels, Ive had a at tire,
Ive had motors blowing up. Ive
gone through a lot at this race
track.
Logano made the Chase for
the Sprint Cup championship
eld in his rst season at Penske
Racing, though it came with a
dash of controversy because of
the Richmond scandal. His team
was placed on probation after
radio trafc appeared to show
Front Row Racings crew chief
and spotter talking about David
Gilliland giving Logano a pivotal
spot on the track in exchange for
something unidentied from
Penske Racing.

STEALS & DEALS
ALANA SEMUELS
Los Angeles Times
In a packed pub in midtown
Manhattan, Ryan Flagherty is sur-
rounded on three sides by people
clamoring for his attention.
He spins one way and pours a
shot of vodka into a glass, then turns
around and wedges a lime into a bot-
tle of beer, pushing it across the coun-
ter. Ignoring the annoyed gaze of a
bulky man on his right, he turns again
to a touch-screen register to ring up
the sales.
Its just a minute out of the gruel-
ing, physically demanding eight-hour
shift that will last long into the night.
But Flagherty, 28, isnt complaining.
With the generous tips of New
Yorkers and his pick of shifts, he pulls
in around $80,000 a year as a bar-
tender. Its more than he was offered
for various ofce jobs he considered
when he arrived in the city, even
though hes highly educated.
I have a masters in economics and
Im bartending in New York, he said
with a shrug. Its a good way to make
money.
A college degree once all but guar-
anteed a well-paying job and higher
earnings than high school graduates.
But fewer of these good jobs are now
available because of both long-term
economic changes and the lingering
effects of the Great Recession.
People such as Flagherty with col-
lege and advanced degrees are work-
ing jobs that dont require them,
whether by choice or necessity. That
in turn pushes people without college
degrees out of those jobs.
In 1970, only 2 percent of reght-
ers had college degrees; now 18 per-
cent do, according to Richard Vedder,
an economist at Ohio University. Less
than 1 percent of taxi drivers had a
college degree in 1970; now 15 per-
cent do. About 25 percent of retail
sales clerks have college degrees,
Vedder said.
The main reason is a pretty simple
one, he said. The number of col-
lege graduates has grown vastly faster
than the number of jobs that require
high-level education skills.
In the 1980s and 1990s, the
demand for college graduates started
booming, especially in the lead-up to
the tech boom, said Paul Beaudry, an
economist at the University of British
Columbia who has studied this trend.
Wages grew and a college education
paid off.
But when the tech bubble burst,
the economy was left with an over-
supply of college graduates. Some
went into industries related to hous-
ing or nance, and then the recession
wiped out those jobs. No industry has
emerged to employ all the people who
got college degrees in that time, he
said.
As more college graduates have
ooded the market, employers are
able to offer lower wages. The earn-
ings of college graduates have fallen
about 13 percent in the past decade,
according to Drexel University econo-
mist Paul Harrington.
Saim Montakim has a bachelors
degree in accounting but drives a New
York City taxicab. Its strenuous work,
but he can make $200 on a good day.
On a bad day, he barely can pay the
rent for the taxi and the cost of gas.
Hes getting a masters degree in
human resource management and
hoping that his dual degrees will help
him nd a better job. The account-
ing jobs he was offered upon gradu-
ation were all entry-level, paying $10
an hour. He prefers driving a taxi to
being stuck in an ofce from 9 to 5 at
that wage, he says.
Montakim, whoisfromBangladesh,
came to the U.S. to get an education.
He gured that with a college degree,
hed be able to nd a good job and
build a life for himself in America.
Now he acknowledges that his idea
that a job comes with a college educa-
tion might have been unrealistic.
Ive always had a dreamof being in
America, for an American education
in the United States, said Montakim,
38. But now I think my expectations
were too high. I was far, far beyond
reality.
Aside from his daily expenses,
Montakim has student loans to repay.
Because college is so expensive,
many students are facing a dilem-
ma: If they go to college, they still
might not get a job that requires a
college degree, and theyll be on the
hook for big student loan payments.
But if they dont go to college, they
might be pushed out of entry-level
jobs by overqualied college gradu-
ates who cant nd other work.
No degree required

Internet radio
becoming
mainstream
survey says
RYAN FAUGHNDER
Los Angeles Times
Internet radios drumbeat is get-
ting louder.
More than half of Americans who
go online listen to Internet radio ser-
vices, and consumers who use them
are using them more often, indicat-
ing the industry has become increas-
ingly mainstream, according to a
new study by Edison Research.
For the study, streaming services
Pandora Media Inc., Spotify and
TuneIn turned to Edison, based in
Somerville, N.J., to survey more than
3,000 people age 12 and up about
their online music consumption.
The study found that, for the rst
time, a majority of Web users 53
percent, to be preciselisten to
Internet radio outlets, including
personalized streaming, live online
audio and music on-demand.
This study conrms what weve
believed for some time: Audio
streaming has arrived, said John
Donham, chief executive of TuneIn,
a Palo Alto, Calif., company that
aggregates online radio stations and
streams to more than 40 million
active listeners. Its not just that
people are listening differently; more
audio streaming means more overall
listening.
Slightly more than two-thirds of
those surveyed said they listen to
more online radio than they did a
year ago as they access content on
more Internet connected devices.
More than 80 percent of smart-
phone owners said they listen to
some kind of Internet radio on their
mobile gadgets.
The advent of mobile listening
and the proliferation of choices for
the types of Internet audio have
transformed the medium from niche
activity to major media channel
in under ten years, Larry Rosin,
Edisons president, said in a state-
ment Tuesday.
Theres still plenty of room for the
industry to grow, especially in the
automobile market.
Almost 9 of 10 people listen to
radio in their cars, but only 17 per-
cent use Internet radio. (The survey
did not include statistics on satellite
services such as SiriusXM.)
The growth of Web streaming
doesnt mean traditional AM and
FM radio is losing out. The survey
said 90 percent of participants listen
to terrestrial stations.
This comes as entrenched stream-
ing Internet services are facing more
competition.
On Monday, Apple said its new
iTunes Radio service has brought in
11 million users, and that news sent
Pandoras shares down 10 percent.
Shares recovered slightly Tuesday,
rising 21 cents, less than 1 percent-
age point, to $24.47.
Stifel Nicolas analyst Jordan
Rohan said the introduction of
iTunes radio is not an existential
threat to Oakland, Calif.,-based
Pandora, which counts 72 million
users, but that Apple may take 10
percent to 15 percent of total listen-
ing hours from Pandora in the next
few months.
Investors had ignored the threat
of intensifying competition from
Apple, Rohan wrote in a note to cli-
ents Monday.
Pandoras share price has more
than doubled this year.

PAMELAYIP
Contributing Columnist
DALLAS At a time when work-
ers must take increasing responsibil-
ity for their own health insurance
and retirement savings, any glitch in
those areas can seriously harm their
personal nances.
Think about the frightening pros-
pect of believing all along that you
have health insurance
through your employer,
only to discover that
you dont because your
company is having
nancial problems.
Or believing that
youre on track saving
for retirement through
your 401(k), only to nd
out that your employer
hasnt been transferring
your contributions to
the savings plan. Both
occurrences are rare, but they do hap-
pen.
Out of the many companies that
sponsor retirement plans, this type of
action would be unusual, said Barry
Cowan, an employee benets attorney
and shareholder at Winstead Sechrest
& Minick in Dallas. First, most com-
panies consider this a true benet for
the employees, so they want to make
sure the funds are contributed on a
timely basis.
Second, contributions to retire-
ment plans and some health plans
are covered under federal law, he
said.
Both situations involve employ-
ers obligations under the fed-
eral Employee Retirement Income
Security Act, or ERISA, which sets
minimum standards for most private-
industry pension and health plans.
But that doesnt mean you should
blithely ignore the workings of your
employers heath and retirement
plans. Savvy employees are proactive
in monitoring their benets.
Things can turn south quickly when
a rm experiences extreme nancial
stress.
As businesses go into bad times,
one of the rst things they do is they
dont pay their payroll taxes in a time-
ly fashion, and they dont make their
(employee benets) contributions
in a timely fashion, said Thomas
White, an employee benets lawyer
and partner at Chapman and Cutler
in Chicago.
HEALTH INSURANCE:
Employers can structure their health
insurance plans in two ways: through
a fully insured plan or a self-
insured plan.
In a fully insured plan, the employer
pays premiums to an insurance com-
pany, which agrees to cover employ-
ees claims. The insurer assumes the
risk because its underwriting the
coverage.
It reduces the likelihood that your
claims wont be paid, because its
heavily regulated, said Gary Short, an
employee benets lawyer and partner
at Vinson & Elkins in Dallas. Fully
insured plans are required to have
reserves. While there could always
be fraud or corruption, thats very
unlikely.
Under self-insurance, employ-
ee medical bills are paid out of
the general assets of the employ-
er, and the company assumes
the risk. That also means that if

MarIe G. MCINtYre
McClatchy-Tribune News Service
Q: I need to have a dif-
cult discussion with my
boss, who is the owner of
a small family business.
For twelve years, Craig
and I have had a wonderful
working relationship. He
has given me many oppor-
tunities, for which I am
extremely grateful.
Despite loving my job, I
have always hoped to even-
tually spend more time
with my children. My hus-
band now makes enough to
support our family, so we
have agreed that I should
become a full-time mom.
But Im afraid Craig may
misinterpret my decision.
Recently, our business
has been going through
tough times. Because of
declining sales, employees
have lost benets, and pay-
checks are frequently late.
When I announce my res-
ignation, Craig could feel
betrayed and assume that
Ive just given up on the
company.
To make matters worse,
I also need to ask for three
months of back pay that
he owes me. How should I
approach this conversation?
A: Combining a warm,
grateful farewell with a
request for money is like
putting hot peppers on ice
cream. Thetwosimplydont
go together well. Therefore,
a wiser approach would be
to separate these radically
different topics. First, meet
with Craig to explain your
family circumstances and
express your feelings about
leaving.
For example: Craig, I
need to let you know that
Jack and I believe our kids
should have a full-time
parent at home right now.
Unfortunately, that means
I will have to resign. This
was not an easy decision,
because I feel a great deal of
loyalty to you and the com-
pany. However, its the best
choice for our family.
Give Craig a few days
to absorb this news, then
politely mention the past-
due paychecks. If you
havent been reimbursed by
the time you depart, be sure
to get a signed acknowl-
edgement of the debt. Even
when relationships are
good, nancial agreements
need to be documented.
Q: My manager always
answers her phone, even
when were discussing
an important issue. This
makes me feel as though
Im not as important as
the person who is calling.
I think she should let these
calls go to voice mail and
return them later. Should I
suggest that?
A: Your distractible boss
probably doesnt intend to
be rude or insulting. Some
people simply have an
almost irresistible impulse
to respond immediately to
any stimulus in their per-
ceptual eld. This knee-jerk
reaction may be triggered
by ringing phones, incom-
ing emails, or someone
standing in the doorway.
Unlike some annoying
habits, this one can be con-
trolled with a little effort.
For example, your manager
probably ignores such dis-
tractions when talking with
her own boss. The question
for you, however, is wheth-
er critiquing her behavior
would be to your benet.
If your boss is receptive
to feedback, she may appre-
ciate hearing your point of
view. But if she tends to
react defensively, raising
this issue could be risky. In
that case, just keep remind-
ing yourself that these inter-
ruptions reect her lack of
self-control, not your lack of
signicance.

When leaving a job, wait to mention back pay
oFFICe CoaCH
your employer has nancial
problems, they could endan-
ger your health care cover-
age.
Generally, self-insured
plans dont have reserves,
so if the plan sponsor fails,
it might be unable to pay
claims, Short said. Note,
however, that such an event
is extremely unlikely, and
even in bankruptcy, medi-
cal claims are almost always
paid.
Employees shouldnt
worry needlessly, he said.
The problem that indi-
viduals sometimes run into
is a dispute over whether
a particular expense is cov-
ered, Short said. In that
regard, theres no reason to
think that youll have more
difculty with self-insured
vs. fully insured plans.
Theres another added
piece of security with fully
insured plans.
The nice thing about an
insured plan is you have con-
version rights, so when your
policy is terminated, it often
allows you to convert group
coverage to an individual
policy, said Felicia Finston,
also a partner and employee
benets attorney at Vinson
& Elkins.
The easiest way to ensure
that your health care bills are
being paid is to look at the
Explanation of Benets doc-
ument that your insurance
company sends you after
you le a claim. The EOB
spells out what doctor ser-
vices youve used, the cost,
howmuch the insurance will
cover and how much of the
charges you will have to pay.
Also, ask for a copy of
the health insurances sum-
mary plan description or
SPD. The plan administra-
tor must give you a copy.
The SPD tells you what the
plan provides and how it
operates.
You should take a look at
the summary plan descrip-
tion to see if there are any
limitations if there isnt any
money to pay the claims,
said White, the employee
benets lawyer at Chapman
and Cutler, who helps draft
self-insured health plans for
employers.
The language will say
something like, Benets
will be payable only to the
extent that there are assets
in the plan, he said.
If there are no assets or
not enough assets in the
plan, youd have to wait
until additional contri-
butions are made by the
employer or participant or
a combination, White said.
In self-insured plans, the
health insurance premiums
withheld from the employ-
ees paycheck must be con-
tributed to pay for premi-
ums within 90 days from
when they were withheld,
Cowan said.
Be aware that most health
care providers hold you
responsible for paying the
bill if your insurance doesnt
pay.
CHECKING ON YOUR
401(k): The situation with a
401(k) is different. For one
thing, you can go online and
check your balance and your
contributions. You can also
check the paper statements
you get.
Federal law requires
employers to transfer
employee 401(k) contribu-
tions as soon as its admin-
istratively feasible, said
Short, the employee benets
lawyer at Vinson & Elkins.
All 401(k) plans must
be held in trust, and the
employer is obligated to
transfer that money to the
trust as soon as reasonably
practical, he said.
If your employer matches
your 401(k) contributions,
the law generally permits
companies to wait until the
ling deadline for their tax
return, plus ling exten-
sions, to forward matching
funds, Cowan said.
Short said some com-
panies may delay transfer-
ring the matching money
because of nancial prob-
lems or because theyre
awaiting the results of dis-
crimination testing on their
401(k) plans thats aimed at
ensuring that all employees,
regardless of income, con-
tribute equally to a plan.
If the plan fails the test
and is found to favor highly
paid employees, the com-
pany would have to refund
the excess contributions to
those employees.
Some employers wait to
put in their matching contri-
butions so they dont end up
withrefunds at the endof the
year, Short said. But most
employers match contempo-
raneously with money taken
out of employee checks.
Employee benets attor-
neys said the government
takes very seriously the obli-
gation of employers to be
proper duciaries and good
stewards of the employee
assets theyre holding.
I spend a lot of time just
with(employer) committees
on the duciary side and
always discuss the timing of
contributions, Cowan said.
I put it right up there
with payroll taxes.
There are potential crimi-
nal sanctions for failing to
forward employee contri-
butions to the 401(k) in a
timely manner and for mis-
handling deductions from
employee paychecks for
health insurance, Cowan
said.
Thats something they
will jump on right away,
said Finston of Vinson &
Elkins. They dont mess
with it.
Indeed, the Labor
Department has brought
several cases this year
against companies for fail-
ing to transfer employee
retirement contributions to
the savings plans.
The way the government
sees it, the money belongs to
the plans, their participants
and their beneciaries, not
the employer.
The vast majority of
plans are administered hon-
estly, responsiblyandsafely,
said Bradford Campbell, act-
ing assistant labor secretary
at the Employee Benets
Security Administration.
We do see instances
where employers facing
cash ow problems in their
businesses have used work-
ers retirement funds or
health care contributions to
nance the companys oper-
ations, he said.
When we nd this seri-
ous violation of the law, we
take vigorous action to pro-
tect workers, retirees and
their families, including
seeking criminal prosecu-
tion where appropriate.

SMALLER IPOS
More companies are rushing to sell their stock to
investors: Twitter is considering an initial public
offering, and theme-park owner SeaWorld Entertain-
ment sold 26 million shares of its stock in an IPO
during the spring. Investors have seen roughly 140
IPOs this year, according to a preliminary count by
Dealogic. Thats up
from 98 in the first
nine months of
2012. But while the
number of deals is
up, the total value
is down. IPOs
have raised about
$32.5 billion in
2013, compared
with $32.9 billion in
the first nine
months of 2012.
BOO!
October has historically been middling for stocks, with an average monthly gain of
0.5 percent for the Dow Jones industrial average since 1950. But that long-term
average masks some horrors within: Halloweens month has been home to some
of the worst for investors, like 1987 when Black Monday struck and 2008 when the
financial crisis was near its peak.
Investors who follow the old market adage to Sell in May and go away are also
now looking to get back into the market. The saying is based on how much better
the Dow has done historically from Nov. 1 through April 30 each year an average
gain of 7.5 percent versus its performance for May 1 through Oct. 31 an
average gain of just 0.3 percent.

WHEN RATES ARE RISING
One of investors big fears is that rising interest rates will hurt stocks. They
got a taste of higher rates during the summer, when the yield on the 10-
year Treasury note climbed from 1.6 percent on May 1 to nearly 3 percent
on Sept. 5. But the Standard & Poors 500 index rose 4.4 percent during
that period. Surprised? Since 1970, certain sectors have historically done
well during months when the 10-year yield rose. Theyre mostly ones that
tend to do well when the economy is strong.

Title: President of personal
investing at Fidelity
Her suggestion to women: Play
an equal role in your retirement
savings plan
Interview by Stan Choe.Answers
edited for content and clarity.
Kathleen Murphy
More women are taking control of
the investment decisions for their
families, according to a survey of
married couples by Fidelity. The
percentage of women who say
theyre the primary decision-
maker for retirement savings is
19 percent, up from 9 percent in
2011. But some women are more
assertive than others, and it often
breaks down by age.
Surprisingly, younger women
are less likely to be even a joint
decision maker than Baby
Boomers. Only 45 percent of
women born from 1979 to 1988
say that they are, versus 58
percent of women born from
1946 to 1966. Kathleen Murphy
explains why that may be.
Were you surprised by the
survey?
In light of the fact that 53 percent
of breadwinners in the country
are women and that women are
earning more than ever, I was
hoping to see more progress
from Generation Y. For couples,
theres always some division of
duty, and women have deferred
to men for investment decisions. I
also think financial planning can
be an intimidating topic, and too
many women lack confidence in
their ability. I find that ironic given
that we have a separate study on
401(k) participants that says
women are very good investors:
They stick with a plan, they dont
take as much risk and they take a
long-term view on their invest-
ments.
Why does it matter whether
women are ceding control of
the investment decisions to
their partners?
At some point in their life,
statistically speaking, women will
have to handle their finances on
their own. Whether its because
of the divorce rate or because
they outlive men by an average
of five years, they have to rely on
themselves at some point in their
life.
Whats the goal? Should every
decision be a joint one
between both partners?
The goal is threefold: First, that
the couple has meaningful
conversations about these
issues. When youre young, its
about debt management and
expense management. As you
get older, its about: Are we
saving enough? What does
retirement look like? Second, that
they do collaborate. That doesnt
mean that they have to make
every decision jointly, but both
parts of the couple should have
some understanding of what the
overall goal is and how the plan
is executed. Third, that they pay
attention to how the goal is
going: Are they on track?
How often should couples
meet to talk about this stuff?
A good practice is quarterly. If
thats too much, at least annually.
They probably talk to each other
about taxes annually and their
vacation annually. Why not your
financial future annually?
More women
are taking
the reins

Currency checkup
The value of the U.S. dollar has had a tumultuous
ride over the last year. Shifting expectations about
whether the Federal Reserve would take action to
reduce its monetary stimulus has periodically jolted
the currency markets.
The U.S. central bank has yet to take action, but
is still expected to scale back its bond purchases at
one of its upcoming meetings in late October, in
mid-December or sometime early next year so
tapering isnt off the table.
Over the last year, the value of the dollar has
fluctuated against the euro, but it ultimately lost
ground.
Against the Japanese yen, the dollar has
essentially shot straight up. Thats been fueled by
the countrys monetary stimulus program. One goal
of the program was to lower the value of the yen.
Thats good for Japanese exporters because it
raises the value of their overseas earnings and
helps make their products less expensive abroad.

Investors should have Oct. 17 circled on their
calendars.
Thats when the Treasury Department says that
it will hit its credit limit and can no longer borrow to
pay its bills. In the meantime, politicians in
Washington are arguing about whether to allow the
government to borrow more. If they dont reach a
deal, the government could default on its debt for
the first time ever.
A similar argument occurred in August 2011 and
led Standard & Poors to downgrade its credit
rating for the U.S. government. It also sent a shock
through the markets, pushing the S&P 500 index
to swing by at least 4 percent for four straight days.
One argument within the current battle is how
much federal government spending should be
cut. Agencies throughout the federal
government are already contending with
automatic spending cuts that took effect earlier
this year.
This screen shows stocks that could be most
affected by additional cuts in government
spending. All of the companies get more
than 80 percent of their revenue from federal,
state and local governments.

Mortgage rates drop
Average rates on fixed mortgages fell to their low-
est point in two months. The decline followed the
Federal Reserves decision this past week to hold
off slowing its monthly bond purchases.
The average rate on the 30-year mortgage
dropped to 4.32 percent from 4.50 percent last
week. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Trea-
sury note slipped to 2.61 percent.

The buying power of
African-Americans contin-
ues to grow, but advertisers
are missing the mark by
passing over black-oriented
media.
That is the conclusion
of a Nielsen report, which
shows that of the $75 billion
spent last year in the U.S.
on television, magazines,
Internet and radio advertis-
ing, less than 3 percent went
to media focused on black
audiences.
With 43 million blacks in
the U.S. representing about
14 percent of the population
more than half under the
age of 35 advertisers are
not effectively reaching a
growing population project-
edto account for $1.3 trillion
in consumer spending by
2017, according to Nielsen.
In short, the message and
the medium matter when
selling everything from
feminine hygiene products
to Big Macs, both of which
are purchased more heav-
Advertisers overlook black media, report fnds
Name That Company
Based outside Boston, Ima major
global maker of musical instruments.
The brands under my roof include one of
the top names in pianos, founded in Man-
hattan in 1853 by a German immigrant.
(Its name is part of mine.) My other offer-
ings include Bach Stradivarius trumpets,
Selmer Paris saxophones, C.G. Conn French
horns, Leblanc clarinets, King trombones and
Ludwig snare drums. Through my online music
retailer, ArkivMusic, I offer classical music. I rake in
more than $350 million annually, and the Paulson
& Co. investment company is aiming to buy me. My
ticker symbol evokes Beethoven. Who amI?

There are only a few airplane suppli-
ers (think Boeing and Airbus), so if
youre running an airline, its difficult
to play one against the other, negoti-
ating for a great price. Meanwhile, if
hospitals need to buy a certain drug,
they dont have many options.
When there are many suppliers,
they generally have to compete more
to win business, and that can lower
prices for buyers.
Bargaining power of buyers.
This is affected by brand power,
switching costs, the relative volume
of purchases, standardization of the
product, and elasticity of demand
(where demand increases as prices
fall, and vice versa). Wal-Mart can
dictate terms to many suppliers
because of its size.
Availability of substitutes. The
cable TV business is threatened by
the growth of substitutes such as
streaming video.
Competitive rivalry. The more
competitive an industry is, the more
likely you are to have price wars
and reduced profitability. Examples
include supermarkets, airlines
and hotels.
Consider these forces, and you might
determine that an industry is more or
less attractive than you thought.
The Motley Fool Take
A Steely Stock
If you expect our recovering global
economy to boost demand for steel
as more construction and infrastruc-
ture projects get underway, then
you should consider adding steel to
your portfolio. Meet Nucor (NYSE:
NUE), a compelling steel company.
Nucor has grown into the larg-
est U.S.-based steel producer by
doing things differently. For starters,
none of Nucors plants are union-
ized. But it still treats its employees
well, offering a performance-based
compensation plan including profit
sharing and a 401(k). (Thats right
no pension.)
The company hasnt laid
off an employee for financial
reasons in more than 30 years.
Unlike its rivals, Nucor has been
profitable in almost every year of the
past decade, even with a recent over-
supply depressing steel prices.
Whereas steelmakers typically
have huge central facilities, Nucor
employs smaller, efficient, locally
based mini-mills. It also crafts a lot
of steel from scrap metal instead of
via metallurgical coal. Nucor recently
bought Skyline Steel, specializing in
large-scale steel foundations, which
will boost its range of operations.
With a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio
in the 30s, the stock doesnt appear
to be cheap. But those numbers will
change as earnings pick up, and
Nucor merits at least a spot on your
watch list. For patient believers, its
dividend recently yielded 3.1 percent.
(The Motley Fools newsletter ser-
vices have recommended Nucor.)
